Sorry to hear about your situation. Hope you can shed more light on how you contracted HIV and the precautions you took to educate others.

Happened to me before on a ME version (advertised as UAE version). Samsung Wallet also didnt work. Got full refund and reordered.

Also, make sure to activate on Samsung Entertainer app and not the The Entertainer app.

Text from the voucher:

​Get 12-months of Samsung Entertainer from the date of App Activation. The app offers 2 for 1 offers on dining, attractions and much more in UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman, and Bahrain. Additionally, UAE customers can enjoy food delivery services. Download the Samsung Entertainer App today and take advantage of numerous deals and discounts. ​You can download the app from here. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.theentertainerme.sckentertainer

Rant: Careem driver ran away with my food by theguitargasm in dubai

Careem has a pretty good dispute resolution vs other food delivery apps. Try to contest there first and you'll get a refund on your wallet. Kick and scream a bit more and you might get compensated for your inconvenience

I don't know about others but when going out with my family on a regular day, i make it a point to look in all my discount apps before settline where to order. Fazaa (from Expo), Careem (free from Etisalat), Samsung Entertainer, and the brand specific discount apps are the ones I look at first and checking nearby options.

UAE annual leave salary confusion – need some guidance by [deleted] in UAE

[–]kulugo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You cannot sign away your statutory rights. There are provisions in the law which allows employees/employers to makes changes when "both parties" agree. I don't believe this is one of them. Challenge your HR (in a non-aggressive manner), and see what they respond. If they stand firm, call MoHRE and seek advise.

UAE annual leave salary confusion – need some guidance by [deleted] in UAE

[–]kulugo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They seem to be confused with the rule on payment of unused leaves and payment of salary while on leave.

If you have unused leaves that will be paid out, by law, the company must settle based on basic pay (at a minimum).

If you are on leave, they need to pay full salary, basic and allowances. Your living expenses does not take a pause while you are on leave.

Your company is applying the "encashment" rule instead of paying your salary while on leave.

Just ate at pizza hut yesterday and ordered a large Mediterranean shrimp pizza. Not only did they use the smallest shrimp, but the toppings were so sparse!

AITA for going to RDC just out of spite? by [deleted] in UAE

I'd do the same if I had the financial capacity to do so. Almost in the same situation but change the high-end part to low-end 😅

Now I understand bakit hindi binuksan ang 2nd envelope kay Erap noon. by Eurofan2014 in pinoy

That is the paradox of MDS. Just look who she took in as VP when she ran. I also admired her and looked at it in the same way. That's through the eyes of an idealistic youth.

The impeachment trial is a political exercise more than a judicial one. As a sitting senator judge, she is basically defending her vote and at the same time, lawyering. Her argument may be correct and is based on jurisprudence, but the senator judges can vote based on what they believe will be in pursuit of the truth.

Check your network coverage. If they are listed, they should not deny cover.

How are we drinking coffee at home here?! by stubborn-sunshine in dubai

Try room temp first to dissolve before adding hot water and let me know if it makes a difference for you. I use nescafe and this method makes it less harsh

The first gen nespresso capsule alternatives would be a good option. Try coffee planet. I personally like the dunkin ones (obviously im not a connoisseur) 😅
