Nope - you have to pay it.

They can say it's not true all they like - I checked my TL and sure enough, there they are.

FlyingDutchman , You need a VPN then.

It's not in the current time line, but from previous years, so if you click on 2011 or before you"ll see a cluster saying blah blah and however many people posted on your wall. It seems it's a problem for some but not for others. Mysteriously though it seems to be on the mend the last day or so.

How inappropriate of a work mate to do that! Quite shameful really. I'd be passing around the medicated shampoo just in case. You have to have head to head (as it were) contact for the lcie to move from one person to another. Nasty little critters.

Go and speak to the labour department. The longer you leave it, the more trouble you're getting yourself into.

Chocoholic

Ad Hoc has several meanings, but mostly something that is created or designed for a specific purpose when the need arises. A make-shift solution, or something done with little or no planning.

Normally it's 6 consecutive months.

You need to go back to the ministry of labour and get them to call him in again. To be fair, you did break your contract, normally a contract states that you may not work for anyone else, so technically you actually broke the law whilst working for others whilst under a company's sponsorship, they c...

Sounds like you're BOTH using your son in the middle as a tug of war - how is that fair?

Chocoholic

You need to speak to immigration about it and also a lawyer to see what the legal implications are of that.

Chocoholic

The you need to take this up with Immigration as to why it's not been done.

Chocoholic

Again, you'd need to speak to the Labour department and Immigration regarding that. If that's their decision, there's not alot you can do about it unfortunately.

Chocoholic

It's a classic case of one department not speaking to another. I would say go back to immigration and stand there and get one of them to call the labour department. Until they talk to one another this could go on forever.

Can the PRO of the new company not step in a find out what's going on?

Webster , Firstly do you own the property? If not, you'd have to get written permission from the landlord to make such changes.

Chocoholic

Oh that's very sad news to hear indeed. RIP Tom - onwards and upwards.

I don't like hairy men, shave it, wax it, cream it - get it gone!

smartd , Where have you been? It's been forever!!!

Many men DO have the audacity to go out wearing their ring. Don't forget that many men also wear their wedding ring on their right hand, not their left, some don't even wear a wedding ring these days - so that's a moot point as far as I'm concerned. You can't possibly tell. Gut feeling I guess is th...

You can buy out a ban, but you can't pay less than the fines you owe.

My parents needed a certificate of good conduct for their Aussie visas. You need to go to probably the main police station and apply for it. They will offer to send it to you, but that can take literally weeks, it's better to go and collect it when it's ready.

Don't bother with savings accounts. Personally either open an offshore account OR buy National Bonds, very easy to do and the returns are better than any bank would give you. www.nationalbonds.ae

bookfalcon , Stop writing silly posts just to promote your web links!

Chocoholic

They've just changed the rules for visitors from India, you need to call immigration and ask, as they've made it quite difficult now from what I gather.

Chocoholic

DaveandCarol , To be honest there aren't any decent banks in the UAE, they all have their issues and even though they have international names they are no way near international standards. I am with HSBC and have had minimal issues.

Chocoholic

People are being urged to drink local water and shun the expensive imported H2O. A new website has been started to name and shame those outlets which refuse to serve local water. I think this is a great idea. I'm tired of staff shoving Evian and other garbage waters at me, which quite frankly taste ...

A friend had her house broken into last night and had cash stolen. There seems to be a spate of break-ins going on at the moment, especially in areas such as the Springs/Meadows/Jumeirah and Um Sequim. A reminder that if you have those sliding doors, make sure that when they are shut and you're not ...

Please note the title of General though DUBAI General Chat. That doesn't mean we have to have lots of threads which are not relevant to here - which seems to confuse some people. We don't need to know what's going on elsewhere, we live here, not outside. Talking about random stuff is ok, but we don'...

Chocoholic

What rubbish! I have and have always had very close male friends without any romantic interest whatsoever. I think it depends on the people at the end of the day, but for me my best mates have always been guys - women can be too bitchy and aren't always honest with you.

Chocoholic

Technically it should be in Games - the original thread is in there.
