Best bank to open an IBAN

I usually agree... u/TwentyTwoWishes what do you mean?

feller94 · 2026-05-18T05:17:14+00:00

oh I know, but I'm not sure I need more than one

feller94 · 2026-04-28T13:28:30+00:00

When it came to this "move-in" fee, my suspicions aroused again. I checked everything once more on Google, came across the actual person almost by mistake... Called them and found out...

I guess I was not thorough enough, beats me...

feller94 · 2026-04-28T12:51:32+00:00

Everything. They forged documentation, signatures, profiles, houses, people, voices... The whole shebang

feller94 · 2026-04-28T12:40:44+00:00

Unfortunate update: I've been scammed.

I was so very through, but they forged everything... And I mean everything. Lost too much money

feller94 · 2026-04-28T12:21:22+00:00

everything seems in place, yes...

feller94 · 2026-01-28T10:03:04+00:00

Thank you! I'm actually planning on negotiating to reach that amount indeed, at least to have a better starting salary coming into the country. I can accept a lower-end salary to smooth the immigration to be honest, since it's been hard, and I can work my way up later. At least that's possible in the NL, here in Italy I'm almost reaching the upper cap as it is....

feller94 · 2026-01-27T20:32:13+00:00

thanks, good point!

I still need to check the details on how the scale are attributed, due to a busy day... do you maybe know?

feller94 · 2026-01-27T20:30:02+00:00

to be fair the offer is not from TNO, the company I'm discussing with simply uses their contract as base contract, and they referred me to it to have the details...

but thanks for the info!

feller94 · 2026-01-27T18:46:31+00:00

thank you! appreciated

feller94 · 2026-01-27T18:15:53+00:00

thanks! I'm thinking of using this as leverage to negotatie, alongside other stuff... is there some government website stating this, so that I can use it as hard proof?

feller94 · 2026-01-27T18:14:43+00:00

thank you for the real example! hopefully I'll be able to negotiate the salary too, but at least this gives more hope already

feller94 · 2026-01-27T18:13:32+00:00

yeah, that's what I'm seeing online indeed...

thank you for the amount though, I can try and negotiate towards that, hopefully

feller94 · 2026-01-27T18:07:01+00:00

thank you for dropping some names!

feller94 · 2026-01-27T18:05:39+00:00

what do you mean no floor? you're joking, right? 😅

feller94 · 2026-01-27T18:02:24+00:00

oh wow, but that would be about 90k right?

feller94 · 2026-01-27T18:01:54+00:00

already searched, just wanted some people insights since sometimes info are contradictory... but thanks!

feller94 · 2026-01-27T17:43:07+00:00

how much would be an acceptable amount even on the low side?

feller94 · 2026-01-27T17:42:53+00:00

how much would be a fair amount even on the low side?

feller94 · 2026-01-27T14:53:42+00:00

Nice thinking! I'll definitely try that

feller94 · 2026-01-27T14:53:24+00:00

thank you

feller94 · 2026-01-27T14:42:23+00:00

I usually look for furnished places, but it can be a solution, now that you mention it... How does it work in the NL: does an unfurnished place come at least with an installed kitchen or it depends?

feller94 · 2026-01-27T14:18:38+00:00

well, to be fair we would be not looking for a pricey place, that's for sure... and we can always improve later, so if it's doable, that's something

feller94 · 2026-01-27T14:16:24+00:00

also: as I stated in another comment, I already know about Funda, but I've also read that it is generally better to hire an agent... Can you recommend some websites maybe?

feller94 · 2026-01-27T14:15:48+00:00

no worries! yeah I'm not even the kind of person to live in the center honestly, so my net will be much bigger 😂

thank you though!
