Small instruction to start e-commerce

Hey 👋
We just started a small e-commerce with my wife and wanted to share our experience since I was confused in the beginning

License + activity
We went with Rakez with 0 Visa (easy and fast to setup)
business activities : chose carefully what type exactly you will be needing
Trading activity is a must as if you plan to import you will need a custom code (e-trading cannot have custom code )
Tax registration : easy to setup
Domain : we went with tasjeel.ae (nice price great support ) we bought as suggested .ae and .com

Bank account : WIO BANK fast to open 100aed per month

Stripe connection (nothing difficult to set up )

We created amazon account (very tricky lots of things to learn if you are new on this , not very user friendly)

Shopify account . Need little of work to fix the website and some integration but after that is easy to understand

ChatGPT for picture generation
Claude to help out for the Shopify and some integration there for coding etc

Delivery quiaup app you can contact them they will help you set up

Warehouse we found in DIP 100sqft for the beginning(not easy to find ) as there is no availability

Any question happy to help

Tenant disappears after losing the court order to pay and evict

I have a small question if anyone had the same ,

So we had a case against a tenant who didn’t pay for 6 months (2 cheques bounced) we submit the case and after all the hearings we win and he has to pay all the legal fees , DEWA and the rent until they will move out of the premise.
But now we have asked politely by when they will move out so we have a plan etc . And as expected they don’t reply the messages neither calls , what is the next step ? I saw online that you need a lawyer to take the money ? (The tenant is Saudi national , so travel ban I don’t know if they can put him )
(They have to pay around 100k )

Thanks

You have to start from somewhere

Don’t mind the mess , we finally receive our products and do some repacking/cleaning of the items.
With work and kids only at home possible to do so 🫠😅

Move to Thailand

Hello 👋

Straight to the point,
Me with my wife (Thai) and 2 kids we have thoughts to move to Thailand as the life is getting expensive currently here. We have set up a Airbnb in Thailand so we have a small income and as well we plan to do something extras to make a living and to support the kids of course.
What’s the expenses for family of four ? What’s the school fees for a decent educational program? She didn’t live In Thailand long time now, so we are looking for some guidance, from Thai or foreigners with the same experience 🙏
Any advice will be appreciated

Dear rental seekers

Especially lately I have notice that most of the tenant have literally no manners.

Late on the viewings (30+ minutes with no heads up and no answer as well ) and if you leave and they come,they will be upset as well 🤷🏻‍♂️ and call me unprofessional.

The (can we view it now ? We are near.) Im not staying inside the apartment waiting for client to come.

Schedule a viewing and no show up at all and no answering as well. ( fuel is getting expensive, our time is money unfortunately as is difficult times )

Schedule a Viewing and after the viewing is completed asking for 50% less than asking price as is not your budget 🤦‍♂️ (yes is my job to show you the unit, but at least tell me from begging the price you are looking for , no need to waste your time or mine )

Sending inquire and non replying back even if I reply immediately 🥲 ( Hopes 📈📉)

This is just conversation to be made about latest interactions.

No hard feelings

Edit : The night owl viewing after 9pm. 🫪

2026 GWM Tank 500 V6 – Owner Review After 4,000 KM

Long review

This review was created with the assistance of ChatGPT while I shared my thoughts in real time from the vehicle. ChatGPT helped organize and structure my personal ownership experience into this review.

After driving the 2026 GWM Tank 500 V6 for over 4,000 km in just four weeks, I feel I can give a fair and detailed review based on real daily use.
Overall, I would rate this vehicle 9/10. It offers an impressive combination of comfort, technology, practicality, and road presence, especially considering its price point.
Driving Experience
The ride quality is excellent. The vehicle feels solid, comfortable, and very stable on the road. One thing I noticed is that acceleration is not instant. When you need to perform a quick maneuver or overtake, there can be a slight delay of around 2–4 seconds before the vehicle fully responds. However, once it gets going, the acceleration is smooth and the vehicle cruises effortlessly.
Safety & Driver Assistance
The adaptive cruise control and lane assist systems are outstanding. Together, they make highway driving extremely relaxing and almost feel semi-autonomous at times.
The automatic emergency braking system is probably one of the best features in the car. It is extremely sensitive and proactive. In fact, it can sometimes feel almost too good. It detects vehicles and obstacles very early and starts slowing down well before many drivers would normally react. While this is excellent for safety, it can occasionally surprise you because it reacts very quickly, even to small obstacles or situations that may not seem immediately dangerous.
Technology
The technology package is one of the strongest aspects of the Tank 500.
Apple CarPlay works very well.
You can access various phone functions seamlessly.
The Head-Up Display is excellent and displays speed, navigation information, and even Google Maps directions directly in your line of sight.
The infotainment system is intuitive and easy to use.
Interior & Comfort
The interior feels premium and spacious.
The second-row seating is particularly impressive. The three-seat configuration comfortably fits two child car seats plus an adult in the middle, which is a huge advantage for families.
The massage seats are very good and add comfort during long drives.
The seat ventilation is also surprisingly solid. You can definitely feel the airflow, and it helps during hot days, although it’s not the strongest system on the market.
The cabin insulation is excellent, making the vehicle quiet and comfortable at highway speeds.
The panoramic sunroof is nice and adds to the feeling of space inside the cabin.
Storage & Practicality
Practicality is another strong point.
The trunk space is huge when the third row is folded down. In my case, it easily fits a double stroller horizontally without any issues.
Even if one of the third-row seats is being used, there is still enough cargo space remaining for groceries, luggage, strollers, and other everyday family items.
One small complaint is the placement of the cup holders. They sit quite low, making it slightly awkward to grab smaller drinks such as a karak tea while driving.
Cooling Compartment
A feature that genuinely surprised me was the cooled center compartment. It won’t make drinks ice-cold like a refrigerator, but it keeps water and beverages pleasantly cool and very usable during hot weather.
Wireless Charging
The wireless charging pad works well, but it is relatively slow, which is expected. One inconvenience is that if you want to route a charging cable through the compartment, you may need to remove the phone from the wireless charger first.
Air Fragrance System
The built-in fragrance system is a nice idea, but the scent is very subtle. Personally, I can barely notice it most of the time. Perhaps it improves after servicing or adjustments, but so far it has not been a standout feature.
Fuel Consumption
This is probably my biggest criticism.
Fuel consumption is currently averaging around 20.1 L/100 km, which is quite high. Anyone considering this vehicle should be aware that fuel economy is not its strongest point.
Off-Road Capability
I have not yet had the opportunity to test the off-road modes. My driving so far has been mainly city and highway use, and unfortunately I have not had time for any off-road adventures yet. Given the vehicle’s capabilities, I am looking forward to trying it in the future.
Final Verdict
The Tank 500 V6 delivers an exceptional package of comfort, technology, space, safety, and practicality. While fuel consumption is high and there are a few minor details that could be improved, none of them are deal-breakers.
For families, long-distance drivers, and anyone looking for a premium-feeling SUV with excellent technology and a spacious interior, this vehicle is very easy to recommend.
Overall Rating: 9/10

Jetour refund

Hello

I recently put a security deposit for Jetour G700 at the showroom for 10k (after I pay they inform me that is not refundable if I don’t buy the car ) in the end i didn’t buy it. I get something less expensive
How I can get my refund back ? Can I inform them or pass to someone else ? I’m a mortgage buyer , so maybe as well if the bank reject the application
Anyone with same experience? Anyone get the deposit back to give to someone else ?

Edit :
I just had a call and they inform me that I cannot get the refund until and unless the mortgage has been declined or I lose my job

So I have to find a way to get a rejection letter from the bank

Finally got it Gwm Tank 500

I recently took some advice from Reddit and finally decided to get the GWM Tank 500 V6 petrol — the 3.0L version.

So far, I’m really impressed with the car. The engine feels strong, the driving is smooth, and overall it gives a very solid and premium feeling on the road. I’m still getting used to it since my previous car was a BYD Song Plus, which was noticeably lighter and drove very differently.

One thing I really like is the practicality. For a seven-seater SUV, the interior space is excellent. Two double strollers fit perfectly in the back while still leaving plenty of room inside for passengers and luggage.

I haven’t fully pushed the car yet because I’m still waiting to pass the 1,000 km break-in period, but first impressions are very positive.

The only small issue I noticed is that at around 140 km/h, you can still hear some wind noise from the windows. It’s not terrible, just something noticeable.

As for the self-parking feature — honestly, it feels more like a gimmick. It works, but it’s quite slow and mostly just turns the steering wheel for you. (Cannot park or un-park the car properly )

Overall, I think it offers great value for the money, especially considering the amount of technology and luxury features included. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a luxury full-size seven-seater SUV with a strong engine and modern tech.
