@SimCityAT Refer to the thread. Might help. Anyway, the initial issue of MacGeorge8035 was about the status of the biometric card. I posted a solution of how I track the status of my card. And I gave the number to where a text message can be sent, ... Read More

Hi, Committing to renting or buying accommodation when youÂ’re new to or have not moved to the United Arab Emirates just yet is always a stressful endeavour. Would you like to help us in putting together a handbook of what to look out for when ...
