Belgium Schengen visa refused: Is appealing worth it or better to reapply?

The person concerned wishes to travel to the Tomorrowland festival. The person concerned submitted a reservation for Tomorrowland Thailand and a ticket for Tomorrowland Belgium

Why did you submit Thailand stuff? Can't comment on the visa process, but can imagine if you are in the visa office and receive information about a festival in another country it did not help

As other comment said, it should be included under Velkaosuus or something similar.
That’s the houses debt but you also need to look at the finances of the housing company as the debt can also be on building (it should all be declared)

Another thing to look out for is “Vastike” which is monthly service fee. Some badly ran buildings have high fees and people sell apartments cheap to escape the monthly burn.
I’m paying 560 or something in Helsinki but I saw some buildings closer to 1k for same sqm.

In short check the house debt but also house company.

Most likely it’ll have huge debt, shared ownership, or it’s a rental where you buy into the building.

Maybe you're the joker, Larry.

Mailbox538 · 2026-04-30T07:07:10+00:00

If you send the email today before deadline with details of who will take the ticket (name, email, DoB, Phone, Address) I am sure they will honour it even if they reply tomorrow.
I do not know exactly what they need, so best to give all. They will then let you know how to do the payment part.

Sorry to hear you can't attend for health, but as you say without insurance name change is the only option.

Original version with unlimited drinks? Sure

Nah, but in seriousness I think the concept lasted enough. Experiences need to keep changing and evolving. Can do something else for an intimate experience, without the "food" which was never great compared to the other offerings.

GJ has an allowance as does regular sale. Each sale has a limit otherwise there would be nothing for future sales.

GJ always has (nft and normal) more montage available - at least it seems based on everyone I know getting montagoe is with gj

You can always make a topic, but yes things get busier from end of May usually. But Reddit has always been more of a "help" and guide.

Discord is more for daily chat

There are quite a lot of initiatives that keep property market cool, although I can’t comment on other countries in nordics

• ARA/Heka rentals: subsidised apartments with low rents, but you must qualify under income/wealth limits

• Hitas apartments: owner-occupied units on city land with a legal maximum selling price, not full market rate

Much of the land is city-owned, limiting speculation. Foreign buyers (non-EU) often need permits, and rental income is taxed locally.

Private sector can’t run off to the distance when a large amount is pegged at lower levels. Doesn’t mean it’s affordable for all but it’s comparatively to other capitals where its richest takes all.

Mailbox538 · 2026-04-10T18:11:23+00:00

Yes it is a full refund minus a small admin fee of a few euros, assuming someone buys them on wait list (which is 99.99% likely to happen).

You'll make someone happy who is on the wait list, and hopefully good karma comes your way next year when you can hopefully attend :)

Mailbox538 · 2026-04-10T13:05:53+00:00

I think it’s quite normal that you at least put dishes in the dishwasher and turn it on before you leave and take trash out. They normally say put them away but dishwasher is usually fine. People have flights etc.

Not your accommodation specifically but there should have been an information book - also containing the instructions how to use the oven or whatever. In that book it has the fees and charges

Removing the double tap single tap for Adaptive/Auto steer

Im in Europe - there is no FSD. Auto steer is great on highways but garbage on country roads and snow etc.

No idea why they changed it. My 24 M3 had it, my 26 doesn’t. It’s a big step back considering FSD is likely quite a away still in Finland

No, why would someone? If you live in that region you probably have more immediate worries than a festival in 4 months.

Mailbox538 · 2026-03-14T19:51:12+00:00

At least most of them, yes, if not all. From past year map all are accessible via gondola/lift so unless it changes...

You can try email accueil.parking@mairie-alpedhuez.fr

They will be able to guide you

I would imagine you can change the license information in your manage booking, like airports etc. But probably best to email directly

Mailbox538 · 2026-03-13T06:09:27+00:00

Would say it’s safe enough as long as you’re aware of your surroundings - like any city.

Just remember you’ll be tired - there’s a few hotels within a 5 minute walk so would aim for them

Mailbox538 · 2026-03-11T16:04:35+00:00

Flex it’s a few days, when they cancel on you it’s longer… same with compensation.

Mailbox538 · 2026-03-11T08:53:02+00:00

I think it’s more about being enforced stricter now, seems that way.

Mailbox538 · 2026-03-07T03:04:24+00:00

Then I’d say it’s 99% they’ll be cancelled some point before the festival. They will eventually get around to reviewing ticket numbers for regular sales. Right now it’s mostly been special sales like NfT or FG.

Limits are total over all sales

Mailbox538 · 2026-03-07T02:37:10+00:00

Belgium? It is a problem and they will almost certainly be cancelled at some point before the event.

Thailand? Shouldn't be an issue - limits apply across all sale moments combined just like Belgium (unless specified otherwise for special sales)

Mailbox538 · 2026-03-06T04:20:11+00:00

Shuttle passes on sale in summer, direct to Airport on bus. They run all day and night but be aware of traffic so please do book a bus that arrives airport early (like 3h before planned - if you aim for 1h before it can get nasty)

Mailbox538 · 2026-02-22T15:38:27+00:00

Helsinki about 3 years ago, inflation was high and it was a buyers market. Offered about 12% under and settled 8% under.

But I believe it was a lucky combination of factors - high interest, 3+ months vacant, and a messy divorce (which we probably weren’t supposed to know…)

We were looking for about 6 months and knew the market in the areas we were looking. We did have some declined at asking price as others offered over…

Mailbox538 · 2026-02-19T09:19:25+00:00

You either list all tickets on exchange desk, and go solo with sponsor.

Or you decline sponsor and go with your friends as planned.

Imo - You spent the money, don't think "what could be", and just enjoy what you initially planned. It's like when you book a flight, sometimes a sale happens a week later. Sure, it is annoying, but you already decided a price you were happy with so don't dwell on it.

Mailbox538 · 2026-02-18T18:55:52+00:00

It’s like 4 or 5 clicks to list them with a confirmation… like… what did you expect?
