So informed by the great and good in HR that they only require a certificate from current bank, they are aware of the Lloyds situation, they cannot tell me however what the outstanding letters actually refer to and I'm certain one is Citibank from when we were all keen to sign up for the Skywards card.
That is being turned in anyway so probably not a big deal.
So will head to Jum 1 today and see what HSBC can deliver, based on previous experience I don't expect a great deal.

Let us know what you discover about the Citibank card. I think we all were approached by Citibank without Emirates involvement so I don't think our departure coordinator even knows the card exists.

Logbook stamping / ek
 

Will the company certify (stamp) a print out of flight times from the foip?

Also,mail they provide a letter showing the total flight while flying with EK?
( I think it was swissair who had a simple letter stating flight time and that was accepted by most subsequent employers)

Does anyone have experience of resigning whilst in rental accommodation? Does the company require some form of document from your landlord and/or DEWA?

Better to get your CAA to certify your hours.

A while back I got EKs training dept to certify my hours with a stamp (deputy CFI).

They were much more helpful than office admin.

What is the BUPA remuneration benefit you refer to?

Is this the outstanding leave issue?

Also, check your guarantee letters list in HRDirect.

I thought I would need a clearance from Etisalat, HSBC etc. but there were no guarantees listed.

I contacted my HR coordinator and she said no clearances required as there's no guarantees in the system. (Never had loans etc only an internet connection and credit cards).

Eliminating people carries a long prison sentence in my country, so I chose to just walk away...

... Still, to each their own ;)

:ok:

:p
Many interesting applications of the word, you can choose which to apply. ;)
To be clear on my meaning;
Elliminate - synonyms: remove, do away with, banish.
:ok:

Great Resource thank you all

Question:

I cant find the reference in staff travel manual about repatriation allowance, perhaps its moved to other buried hole in the portal. Not having actually resigned yet i don't have end of service documents. Assume it is in this document.

If some kind soul could post reference to allowance, that would be much appreciated.

And for those interested in statistic's; i am 12 year 777 Capt off to CSA contract, maybe Hainan.

It's 28,800 dhs for the allowance.

A full 20ft container with full insurance and door-to-door repatriation will cost about 24,000 all-in. The major companies will bill Emirates directly (Allied,Freightworks etc).

Easy.

PS that's for a Captain. Not sure about FOs.

I know this as I've just done it!

The allowance for moving can be found in the Staff Travel Manual Section B3 Page 7. Your entitlement depends only on your length of service and where you are moving to. The number of stripes on your sleeve is irrelevant.

I recently visited my local Emirates NBD branch to chat about the formalities for leaving the UAE. I have never taken a loan out in the UAE, so I just need to cancel my credit card and empty and close my account, therefore my circumstances could be different. HR have informed me that I don't need to produce a letter of any kind from my bank and it is this that can take up to 45 days to produce, following the cancelation of your credit card. I was told that the closure of my account and my credit card will in itself only take around a week and I can leave it till nearer the time. I was also told that there is no restriction on how much I need to keep in my current account, following the cancelation of my credit card.

Thanks Emma Royds. Much appreciated.

I know advertising is not allowed. But I used Freightworks and they were excellent..door to door, and removed all packing material on arrival at the house.

SOPS

You're not advertising, you're recommending, and that is allowed on these forums. It's useful, it's relevant and it's appreciated :ok:

See, I can be nice to you if I try! ;)

No - they didnt ask anything.

Couple of questions;
1) can you pay a bank loan out from your eosb or does it have to be paid out prior?
2) does anyone have info or recommend a car rental place for cheap longer term rentals?
3) do EK calculate school fees over a full calendar year or are they calculated over the school semester only? I.e do they pro rata the fees covering the school holidays?

I went to ask at the desk but the queue was long and ran out of time so any info is much appreciated

Thanks. :ok:

Once bitten, I could be wrong but I am pretty sure all bank loans have to be paid out before you get your final cheque.

I have used Super Price rent a car at DSO a lot. They are in the headquarters building. They give very good prices for long term rentals. My wife used to come to Dubai for 6 to 8 weeks at time, and we always hired a car from them for her. I could not find a cheaper price in Dubai. Hope that helps.:ok:
