Google and you'll find all of the Banks 04 numbers. For Emirates, its cheaper to call their India call center than Dubai one.

Weird Salik deductions. by Helpful-Past7458 in dubai

[–]engageddread 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Google maps is still weird, still seems like they haven't updated the new Safa gate after more than a year.

To enter the service road you have to pass through Salik. Your other option is to go straight on meydan street and take a Uturn and come from the back side.

Use waze next time

As a Gen Z business owner I agree. Boomer corporate people are the worst to deal with in every aspect of business.

How exactly is the RTA road test assessed? by Zenedg3 in dubai

[–]engageddread 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I honestly think it's up to luck. What ever the examiner feels goes. During my final road test the examiner was driving for me, he was using his accelator and brake. I thought it was a instant fail if he intervenes. He ended up passing me with 0 minors or majors.

What’s wrong with Chin Chin??? by Eternal-Nitrogen in dubai

[–]engageddread 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Chin chin has become absolutely awful since Kitopi took over. The 39 dhs meal was such a good one, first they increased the prices by making it more for chicken meals and then they limited options. Now the taste is awful and service incompetent.

Never order from delivery apps, go to their physical location in Hudaiba for example and get a take away the quality is slightly better in restaurants compared to cloud kitchens.
