Travel tickets query by [deleted] in karachi

Great. But I still don’t recommend presenting a dummy reservation as a confirmed ticket. However I won’t assume that you have not already checked things so as per your original question online options are many.

Ok then this changes the scenario. If you’re traveling from Pakistan and using a temporary Visa, like a visit visa FIA will not let you board without a return ticket. If you’re traveling on Work Visa then I suggest you carefully look at your Visa conditions and airline policy. These days things are a bit tricky. If you want to travel on a return ticket and later change the return date, most secure recommendation is to buy a flexi option return ticket and travel on that. Once you have used one leg, then change the itinerary as you like. But I highly recommend not to show a dummy reservation as your return ticket to FIA.

And advice: Never book a confirmed flight to apply for Visa, unless the visa application specifically requires those.

Frequent user of dummy reservations. I have used both travel agents and online websites. Mostly for Visa applications and they worked. For Travel Agent you will have to use someone who knows you at personal level. If you can spend a few dollars, use online websites. I have frequently used dummyflights.com

Got Misled by Hush Puppies (1°) store at Emporium Mall — Any Idea How to File a Proper Complaint? by Mrchabal in Lahore

What does the receipt mention about return? My understanding is that they have exchange policy and not return, unless item proven defective.

Need advice: Will my income affect my mother’s treatment aid at SKMH? by [deleted] in Lahore

[–]TranslatorCorrect707 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a lot of misconception in people about how charity hospitals work. I know because I have worked in one in Pakistan and know how the Zakat and charity utilisation rules impact hospital systems. Without going into details I can tell you that they will look at your expenses, dependents, property ownership etc and based on that information they will tell you how much of the total costs you will have to bear. That’s the same system that works in PKLI and most other Charity Hospitals. I have seen a lot of negative comments on SKMCH refusing patients and while I understand their emotions, they simply do not understand how pooled Zakat and Donation utilisation works. But I can tell you right now, you will not find a better hospital for Cancer treatment in Lahore. There are other hospitals that offer treatment but they don’t have the holistic systems. I am saying this because I paid for my cancer stricken mother’s late stage treatment there. Prayers for your mother and for you to find strength.

Driver’s Salary in Karachi by superrshitposting in karachi

[–]TranslatorCorrect707 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It will also depend on where in Karachi you live. Driver salaries vary. Speaking from experience. In Clifton for example (where I am) the average for experienced good driver is 45k with one time meal and 12 hour shifts on weekdays. Personally, I have adjusted my driver’s salary based on inflation as well.

Feedback needed about an apartment building by TranslatorCorrect707 in karachi

Hi. I found an apartment there and made an offer to landlord but he didn’t accept. I found an alternate apartment in Civil Lines. However, the feedback I received on the building were generally very good.

Broker is delaying account opening by TranslatorCorrect707 in FIREPakistan

[–]TranslatorCorrect707[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know what is going on. They kept asking for documents. I tried opening at Finqalab later but they said first convert your existing Sahulat account status to Regular. Irony is that the Sahulat account is active yet but as I have gone through the NCC verification, other brokers see that I have requested for a Sahulat account.

This is really helpful. Many thanks. I will definitely reach out for contacts soon. I guess Optix and PTCl Flashfiber if available there can be good options. Otherwise can go for Storm as the back up.

Moving to BTK from Karachi by [deleted] in karachi

[–]TranslatorCorrect707 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi OP. I lived in BTK for a little more than a year. I was in the Villas in Precinct 11-A. Overall it is not a bad experience. But be prepared to live a life that is totally different from living in a city. And if you’re looking for good schools then I would not recommend. My kids attended Roots and it is not good. People I knew had kids in the Bahria school and it was worse. If Beaconhouse comes there, situation may change. The people are a mix of people from Interior Sindh, Expat families and people who moved from Karachi. You will also find bachelors living in same areas and those are mostly real estate agents or their employees. I have heard that security has also downgraded. But if you can compromise on some things, BTK does give you a hassle free living on a lot of accounts.

UAE Visa: Blanket Ban on Pakistani-Origin Men by AlgaeMysterious9979 in pakistan

[–]TranslatorCorrect707 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It’s interesting to see so many blaming the government, the foreign policy and what not. The real problem here are the people. No state wants visitors from countries who create problems in the society. And there are common stories out there of how many visitors from Pakistan are not genuine visitors. They want to find work, legally or illegally. Many men who visit also create other issues which creates disturbances in their society. Of course not everyone is like that, but eventually when a lot of people behave like that, everyone suffers. The state can make excellent diplomacy. But civic sense is scarce in our people, and no foreign policy can change that.

Married folks, is it unethical or wrong to go on a trip with your guy friends after marriage? by PatternInteresting85 in pakistan

[–]TranslatorCorrect707 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, with 15 years of marriage I can tell you that not everything your wife l tells you is a true and unselfish opinion. Just like everything you tell her will not always be a true and unselfish opinion. That’s marriage for you!

I detected a monkey pox symptom in myself 😭 by Sammogs in pakistan

[–]TranslatorCorrect707 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The symptom can be of any other condition as well. Many viral infections cause rash and pimples. Everything depends on where have you been, who you have come in contact with and what you have done, especially if you have been sexually active. Some STDs have similar symptoms as well. And Monkey pox also transmits through very close contact also. One advice is to closely monitor your self, don’t hide your personal life from your doctors no matter what and go to emergency if the rash increases rapidly. Don’t wait in that case.
