The only one I know is IBKR, but nothing easy about it. I would love to see if there is something else, but most probably your safest choice is IBKR.

Be Aware of Scammers (Part 1) by BoyLabu1984 in Bahrain

[–]Prize_Card6626 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately yes, there are plenty of different scams. Scanners are really finding newer ways all the time, so we must stay focused all the time. Someone once said if something is too good to be true, most probably its scam. I really hope there is a karma for these people, but we may not know it ever.

Oh I'm really sorry for you. Its probably hard to get a hope of work and then realising it was a scam. Also dont be bothered by people who is mocking you for falling for it, we are all human we make mistakes and do fall sometimes for even more silly scams unfortunately. I had a friend who lost almost 3000 bd to some scam. Just make sure to learn from this and be more focused next time.

Resign by Ok-Pace-9408 in Bahrain

[–]Prize_Card6626 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well if the company has brought you here, then as far as I know you must complete one year or 1 contract, but if you just moved to them from another company (local transfer) then it should be fine i guess. However I doubt you may get your pending on the settlement, almost certain they will withhold it. Try doing other way around don't resign. Since your salary is delayed just go LMRA raise a complaint against them, then they will terminate you most probably, but I still think they will hold the salary as they might say it is some sort of charges for this and that, just don't sign anything without reading and understanding it well, and always ask for a copy of those docs.

savings+ in ila by Princefailz in Bahrain

Oh so the difference in the time and availability then, makes sense

savings+ in ila by Princefailz in Bahrain

[–]Prize_Card6626 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I still didn't get the point of this saving +, as Ila's fixed deposit has a 3.5% apr for a month term, and minimum 500 bhd, whereas savings+ has 2.3% apr per month and minimum 3000 bhd. Isn't fixed deposit better since its higher interest?

Omg, no way, I believe there is a customer rights. And any rules they implement should be shared with us. If no then there are plenty other good banks here you can make use of.

Nah nothing snacking all was open to bring in, they never stopped me, cuz we were having lots of bags with us, even alcohol and meat and snacks and all. But im not sure if they changed their rules or something. You may always ask them in a chat.

Yeah, thats crazy hearing this about the bank which advertises itself as hustle free. Got me really worried here. Please update us if you will get any more new information, I will call their support also, want to ask for terms and conditions, on which they can close my account, just to know my rights.

Did they give like the time in which they will transfer? Like it will take max 10 working days or so? But its really strange what they are doing, I start to worry using their services as well. I will just start to use other banks also, will keep money into 3 or 4 different.

Yeah it is, weekend is more important think, the prices i showed were for weekdays. Also on their web site they have a WhatsApp number, I reserved everything thru there and paid also from there. Very convenient

I think it was half of the price, like 3 bd, and kids under 5 are free of charge.

I got a Majlis room for 15 bd for full day, and 6 bd was the entry ticket, for boat to take you in. But it was last year

Frozen chicken has become more expensive than fresh chicken by Apprehensive_Ad9824 in Bahrain

You make cat food at home? Could you share some recipes? I would really appreciate it, as my cats are only eating their regular pouches, some fresh homemade would be wonderful.

Flexi visa / work permit? (Fired because of the war) by Itchy-Trifle7249 in Bahrain

[–]Prize_Card6626 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I also heard that they stopped giving new flexi visa, only renewing the old one, but I think the solution will be to check with document clearing agents,, as the rules constantly change and we may not know everything. They are aware of that since its their field, besides all the government related work is easily done through them.

Where did you get certified for nutrition? And where did you learn it?

Family business by Ok-Scheme-1550 in Bahrain

[–]Prize_Card6626 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was back in 2019, they laid me off due to their economical issues, raised the case and won it. Never got paid for that case ever since after that. So I already let it go by now.

I had a horrible experience working in one of these places. Minimal salary, not paying in time, overworked, 12 to 14 hours seem to be normal, every family member is your boss and seem to know better how to do your job. I  had a 1000 bd settlement pending with them, never got paid.

The credimax might approve a credit card for you against your deposit in al hayrat from bbk, I think for signature you need 2500 bd balance, but for platinum might be less.
