    Hello Elphaba,
    I read an old thread (I am new to the forum) about boreholes. If it is not too much trouble, could you send me the telephone number of the company you used as it sounded like a success. I desperately want to get sorted as our DEWA bill is ridiculous and I'm sure this will save us pennies. Thank you and sorry. H

    Hi Elphaba,

    I read in one of the threads that you had valuable advices on offshore account and currency exchange. I would really appreciate if you could share them with me.

    Regards,

    Please can you explain why my wheatgrass thread has been deleted while others - including an almost identical one about herbs just below it - are allowed yo run? Why does this site continue to victimise me?

    Hi Elphaba

    Hope you don't mind me PM-ing you again. Just a quick question on health insurance in Dubai.

    I will be aged 40 when me and my wife move to Dubai where she'll be working as a teacher. My wife will have her own medical insurance paid for by her employer but she will have to fund my medical insurance. Do you know how much it will cost roughly and where to get the best medical insurance from?

    Thanking you for your replies.

    Hi Elph. Need a quick hand if possible. As you know I was a premium member on the forum for a long time and wish to be so again. Trouble is I don't have a paypal account. Any other method of paying for this?

    Hello Elphaba, It seems that you have a lot of information about Dubai, I have read your posts and blogs, quite interesting. I would like to know if you have information about Medical Insurance, I got one card from my company but it's a real joke, worst than the insurance for laborers. I'm willing to pay for a decent and affordable one, but don't know where to start looking. Thanks

    Thank you for your kind words. I'll always help with advice. It doesn't hurt to be nice, and I know what's like to be clueless here. I'm still clueless :D

    Have a great one.

    Hi Elphaba,

    You appear to be a wise old witch...

    I joped you could offer some advice regarding medical insurance?

    My situation:

    Arrived in Dubai at the end of July.
    My wife and two kids will not join me until March 2011

    Currently I have no cover and need to sort ASAP obviously in no rush for the family until they arrive.

    Any suggestions - where do I start...

    many thanks

    Hi Elphaba-- I wanted to fill you in with regard my recent enquiry on this forum about getting Dubai-issued documents attested--just in case the question comes up again.
    Background: we are US citizens, emigrating to the EU from Dubai and are required to submit an attested health certificate and police good conduct certificate.
    for attesting the health certificate--each of us got one from a private facility (his American Hospital, mine Nicols & Asp)--and because it was private-facitlity issued, we had to go first to Dubai Health Authority (healthcare city) for verification and stamp, then to Ministry of Health, then to Ministry of Foreign affairs.
    The Police Good Conduct Certificate went for attesting straight to MoFA--no other layers for that.
    I hope this is helpful for others in the future. when I posted, no one posted that had experience the health certificate particulars.
    thanks for overseeing this website, you are a treasure.

    Hi Elphaba,

    I need some help from you. I am going to see my solicitor tomorrow and taking my Masters degree + Transcript of it and Birth Certificate of my daughter and Marriage certificate to get them notarized. Do i need to take photocopies of my Bachelors degree as well and its transcripts and professional industry related certificates like Microsoft and Cisco certificates to get them notarized as well.

    Your help is much appreciated.
    Thanks and Regards,
