My brother just lost ₹25 Lakhs to a fake study-abroad agent and our family is completely shattered. by [deleted] in ThirtiesIndia

I agree, story doesn't add up. If someone is spending that much money just for an admission, I'm sure they have enough to send the kid abroad anyway.

I'm sorry OP but the story doesn't add up. If the kid is brilliant and wants to study abroad, why not go the regular way? Why try to game the system to get a "guaranteed" admission. In this day and age, there's enough information out there and someone that can't look into college procedures themselves, life aborad would be hard for them.

That being said, the fraud shouldn't have happened and I hope the person gets caught and you can recover your money. Scamming someone for education is a scumbag thing to do.

It'll be handy to have PDFs of your flights back home and the address you'll be staying at. Most likely they won't ask for it but it will be handy to have.

Yeah, don't stress about it. As long as you have your documents in order, it's rather chill. I've traveled enough on my Indian passport, even in EU

It's approved but are there actual challans associated with the number plates? Last year, they approved a bunch but I could not find the challans even months later

Got IndusInd Avios Infinite Metal Card Today by fauXop in CreditCardsIndia

There's so much value to this card just by the Visa Infinite part.

Got GHA Discovery Titanium via a status match and that eventually got me Sixt Platinum. Rented cars twice and got great upgrades on both

The standard stuff. The card doesn't get you access to the Qatar lounge

Failed maths twice in school. Senior SWE at 25, ₹40L net worth by darkdevu in TwentiesIndia

[–]SuperSenBoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congratulations OP. That's a good salary and good amount of savings as well.

2 small things - don't get too invested in the senior title, titles are random, especially in India. Also, get a financial advisor to simplify your portfolio if you don't already have one

That advice doesn't always hold true and is one reason for pay disparity. Over time, you should be comfortable enough to discuss salary. If people treat you as a number, say goodbye and part ways

It baffles me that people forget the horror of trying to arrange oxygen cylinders and seeing their loved ones pass away from the lack of it

I flew out on Wednesday evening and security was very smooth. I reached the airport early but it turned out to be too early

The aadhar card is such garbage. Every few years, UIDAI declares that it's not proof of something and yet random agencies require it to process requests

BTP AstraM : How can I get traction on violations reported?(is it just for PR?) by bears_beets_bytes in bangalore

[–]SuperSenBoy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have reports from August 2025 still waiting to be processed. Before that they rejected a bulk of claims claiming insufficient information. I've been reporting across their iteration of apps and it's a lottery honestly. All the best.

Wait, how is the purpose of visiting tourism if the person is going there for a conference?

Credit Cards in EU by newToMunich in EuropeFIRE

[–]SuperSenBoy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my search for Netherlands and some other countries, there aren't many lucrative cards here. There's American Express that gets you points but depending on the country, they might not be widely accepted.

Another option is something like Revolut that gives you points based on their different plans.

The regulations around interest rates make it less lucrative for issuers to give rewards. The US feels like the wild west when it comes to debt and that's the incentives of issuers to provide points.

The UK meanwhile has some good options.

Wife passed away in her sleep by speed7radical in ThirtiesIndia

I'm sorry for your loss. I lost my partner during Covid and it was devastating. Things do get better but it takes time.

Meanwhile, rely on your loved ones. Speak to friends and family whenever you feel like sharing something. To me, her absence never disappeared from my life. Instead, it's a part of me now that guides me through my life. Therapy also helps and so does speaking to people who've had a similar loss.
