AED 6k could be enough for living costs (excluding accommodation) if you're not extravagant. AED 500 for utilities and phone AED 1000-2000 for groceries AED 1000 for food and beer once (midrange) or twice (budget) a week AED 2000 for cheap rental car + petrol per month http://www.dubaifaqs.com/cost-...

AED 3k - 6k depending on nationality, hotel, and where your qualifications from.

Yes and yes. But I don't know agent names to recommend, I have seen advertisements.

Places like DMC, DIC, DKV do a reasonable job of helping you sort out paperwork though, contact them first before you give money to an agent.

I note that you don’t dispute my point about the superior usability of 2daydubai.com. Like I said, user-friendliness comparison wasn't my objective. Usability is in the eye of the beholder anyway. If you think it's superior, I can't dispute that. If I think it's not, you can't dispute that. The “qu...

Not like you have in the UK, although there are some business service companies that might offer something similar (sorry, can't think of names). Most people have mail delivered to company where they're employed. Even if you plan to get a private box eventually, might be a temporary solution. Or get...

Let me try to put a positive spin on this; the article you posted is a fabricated one made up by people jealous of Dubai. I would like to see someone comment who actually knows how the debt market works. The whole article needs to be read and anylised prior to any kind of comment. It's not fabricat...

Ah, I was a bit slow. You were being sarcastic?

I thought I answered that already :?. See my first post. A UAE work permit is permission to work in the UAE. If you want to live and work in another GCC country then you need a work permit and residency visa from that country. You can visit other countries on a business trip to get a contract and th...

but many DFs gave their expert opinion that it can't pay and it is broke and I'm just pursuing this fact, still waiting for a clarification guys , don't be quit, lets get to the buttom of this issue. Dubai World themselves asked for a 6 month extension to the loan repayment deadline. In other words...

well since no one answered my question "as usual" regarding Dubai worlds assets and to prove my point that most of you are with a negative personality I took a look at the times today and there are good news that you all choose to ignore that's "if you really read the times" I d...

Is that an invitation? Sounds fab, I can't wait for you to ring my bell

Merry Christmas everyone .

Oh surely not. What could be better than spanking the monkey

It's been widely reported that around a quarter of the world's cranes are currently in Dubai, Whenever I read that, I know that the reporter or media source is lazy at least, if not deliberately fabricating sensationalism at the expense of accuracy. It should have been obvious that it was a nonsens...

Under what name are you accredited with ICANN? I don't see hostnhub.com or wwwdubaiuae.com listed with them (neither site loads for me by the way).

Prediction? It was the RTA themselves who said they were thinking about it.

(Of course, I did go the 10.30pm showing of Avatar, and it was pretty much an empty theater, but still!) Glad to hear that you were able to concentrate on the film. Is it worth going to see? Definitely, but only in 3D. The story is a bit weak but the alien forest seen through funny glasses is wild.

Hello. ICANN runs the registry. The post was to inform people that when you buy a domain off hostnhub that the domain REGISTRAR will be listed with ICANN. We are partnered with the worlds largest registrar. No, ICANN accredits registrars (among other things related to the internet). Verisign operat...

ICANN is the registry. Companies who use them are registrars. People who buys domains are registrants. Next time get your facts straight before trying to cut my service down thanks. Have a good day. ICANN is the registration authority. Verisign, an independent company, is the .com and .net domain r...

I can tell by your cut and paste job that you don't get the big picture. I am certified with the biggest registrar in the world. Do realize how may credentials it takes to have a global presence? Its to my advantage to be working with them to be able to offer all the same services as my parent comp...

You are like a dog with a bone who will not give it up. I asked a simple question. You still haven't answered it. As stated domains are listed with ICANN registry. I have made no false claims. As stated, ICANN does not operate the registry, Verisign does. ICANN currently accredits domain-name regis...

I have no problem calling you an idiot. Wow. A simple question that could have easily been answered by you resulted in a two page thread because you thought it was stupid. Do you treat all potential customers like that or only the ones you think are idiots? All you had to do was check who is domain...

Good point. Thanks for the advice .

Oh dear, here we go again ... I never stated who ran the registry. Yes you did, after I asked if you were an accredited registrar. ICANN runs the registry. Yes it is a good point. Good to see we agree on something. Like the post heading is true. I thought the topic title was misleading at least. You...

"You thought" thats just it. Its all about you isn't it bonk? You thought wrong but do not want to admit it. Ok, I'll reword that. I think your topic title is misleading. And so far, you have failed to show that I thought or think wrong. It's not about me, it's about you as you point out ...

I mock ? Noooooooooooo ......

You can arrange a 30 day visa, not 2 months but will depend on salary (I think at least 10k), possibly relationship and nationality, and maybe luck.
