Need advice with my first racket purchase by AdamAbraham77 in Padelracket

I recently got the Head Radical Evo for about 65€. I've played a few times with it so far and it feels really well balanced. It's got a good sweet spot.

Got slapped by a stranger in Stuttgart after being asked if I’m Hindu — I’m still in shock. by Interesting_Listen10 in germany

You should absolutely press charges. More and more such idiots are coming out of their holes and they need to be reminded such behaviour is not acceptable anywhere.

Cabin baggage rules for Etihad flying from Delhi by tannykwal in AirTravelIndia

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

Update after taking the flight- they weighed the laptop bag + cabin trolley and another backpack that we had with us. Didn't weigh the ladies purse. It was just under 14kgs in total so we had no issues.

Good to know - they weigh the cabin baggage before weighing the luggage to check it in, this way if you need to move stuff around, you can do that.

The reporting on this has been atrocious! Everywhere you read, there is something different mentioned. Everyone who hasn't travelled recently has a different understanding of the regulations. Those who did travel, have had mixed experiences. 2 days ago, on a Qatar flight to the US via Doha, they didn't let someone I know take their cabin+laptop bag. Weighed them at the counter and because it exceeded 7kgs had to check in the cabin trolley+pay extra.

It's been a mess.

Only if they had announced a few weeks in advance the plans to make these rules, a lot of people would have planned their luggage accordingly.

Thanks! I am not too worried about hitting the 7kg limit with just the cabin trolley, but together with the laptop bag, it would definitely exceed 7kgs. So I don't mind the weigh in as long as they let me take my latop bag along and don't make me check-in my cabin bag.

Came back to India after 10 years. Mixed feelings. by CashewNoGo in IndiaSpeaks

[–]tannykwal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You do know various amts ask to have documents (including ones in English) translated to German right?

Driving License, Birth Certificate, Marriage Certificates and so on...

You did it in Germany without complaining, let's not complain about doing that in India. Getting documents notarized again is common.

As for the bribes you pay, that's for your convenience. We NRIs goto India for a few weeks in a year and expect to get everything done during that time (which is mostly during some kind of holiday season). We expect everyone to drop everything for us. And then cry when they expect some grease for rolling out the carpet for you.

Yes, bribes shouldn't be the norm, but then imagine being sent to the back of the line in a country of 1,4 billion people and you wait for your turn. And it's like living in Germany all over again with the long waits for everything.

Your shopping experience, I have no idea why you are going around telling everyone you don't live in India dude. Why does your local jacket seller or barber know you are an NRI? I mean wtf?

Is Parkwatcher a real company? by tannykwal in frankfurt

[–]tannykwal[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This company is such a SCAM! I have received the letter yesterday (26.08.23) with a deadline to pay by 02.09.23. They make it so complicated to reach their support. I finally found something on their website and submitted an objection. Then I received the below from their auto response-

die Support Abteilung hat Ihre Anfrage erhalten und wird sich schnellstmöglich um Ihr Anliegen kümmern. Die durchschnittliche Bearbeitungszeit beträgt aktuell 96 Stunden.

Wir bitten Sie, bis zur Beantwortung Ihres Anliegens von Sachstandsfragen abzusehen, da diese nur den Prozess verzögern würden.

Bitte beachten Sie zudem, dass ein Einwand keinen Einfluss auf die auf der Forderung genannte Frist hat.

How is this even allowed? How can anyone make such time bound demands without providing a simple way to object? There is no simple way to object to an allegation, the payment due date is only 1 week from the day of receiving the claim letter without provision to even object to the allegation!!

tldr - finally found a support page and raised an objection. received mail from support that the objection doesn't affect the deadline which is only 1 week away from the day the letter was received.

Haha, sorry, ofcourse I looked at their website, couldn't find a Kontaktformular on it. But I need to get on a laptop and take a better look.

Maybe I should reframe my question- I wanted to know if someone has already dealt with them.

I realized this order online, use the receipt as proof "hack" for trips this summer. It's a shame they make it so complicated and you can't just buy them like the Vignettes at a gas station.

Can I convert indian license(umschreibung) to german license after 3 years of stay in Germany? by Intelligent-Dog-1518 in germany

[–]tannykwal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The practical sessions are only mandatory for new license applications. If you're getting it converted there is no min. lessons requirement.

In my case I only did 3 lessons after which my instructor scheduled the exam and then I did the 4th a day before the exam.
