QUOTE(ilineZ @ Dec 4 2012, 03:23 PM) guys do you have any idea how to get room without paying to agent? well, coz most of the time i search on internet, the ppl who posted the room is agent, which website "clean" from agent? or any other method to find rooms, beside search in website/forum? im looking for tampines area I dont think got website is clean from agent, can try propertyguru, if is not agent, it will stated there "no agent". another method is go to tampines mrt station, there should have a notice board around there where people put the room for rent adv there. |

QUOTE(LiangZhuge @ Dec 5 2012, 11:53 AM) You can try to call the agent and ask if there is any agent fees involved. Some agents don't charge (Is not a written rule that all agent charge a fee, you can still nego for a lower fee, 2 month installment, etc.. if you really want the room or you are desperate) . Or you have the time, just go and look at the place with the agent and if there is agent fees, decline the room. Once I went to the same room posted by 2 different agents with different price, one asking for 1 month rental as agent fee, the other no agent fee, but I didn't take the room and found another place nearby with no agent fee  . But if they not charging the agent fee, they earn commission from the owner by helping them rent out the room?

Previously...around 3 weeks ago I did call up firstcoach to ask when will the tickets for CNY be open for purchase..they said call back in another weeks time or check their website for the info. For Aeroline i think its 30 days in advance only. For the others...not sure...cause I have not tried the others Oh, thanks for the info  This post has been edited by yhoong12: Dec 5 2012, 02:37 PM |

QUOTE(Redondo04 @ Dec 6 2012, 10:43 AM) Hi everyone, i need help from u guys. Im going to work in Singapore next month. Last two days i went for the 2nd interview and got the job offer. I signed the offer letter, and they immediately help me to apply for employment pass. The next day, i got a mail from the company HR. She send me a pdf which state that my EP is approved. According to the pdf, I should submit a request for the issuance of the Employment Pass card. But before that I will need to apply for my SingPass. The problem is when i try to apply for my SingPass at HereIt says that my name/SingPass ID/Date of Issue is Invalid. What should I do now? Please help.... Does EP application require SingPass?i didnt apply SingPass for my current job? how come the appilcation process is different? |

QUOTE(Redondo04 @ Dec 6 2012, 11:33 AM) I'm not sure. But if u don't have the SingPass then how did u submit the request for the issuance of the Employment Pass card??? After HR told my application approved, they only ask me go for medical checkup and after that take the EP application form and medical report submit to EPSC, 5 days later, i got my EPass, this is what i been thru. request for the issuance of the Employment Pass card = take the EP application form and medical report submit to EPSC ???  |

QUOTE(Redondo04 @ Dec 6 2012, 11:55 AM) In the pdf file they sent to me, ther is a medical examination form(suppose to be filled by doctor). So, is that pdf file = EP application form? Where did you got ur EP application form last time? mayb i PM u part of the pdf file, u help me take a look can??im so confuse now... hate to deal with this kind of stuff the EP application form should have a name on the top part, i guess like what crazy25kid said, it should be IPA(in principle approval),i can help you if you want to. btw, HR does not provide any guidance on how to get your EPass? |

QUOTE(Redondo04 @ Dec 6 2012, 12:03 PM) thanks, i pmed u... the HR din inform me anything about the EP...  Yup, this is the IPA, In-Principle Approval letter for Employment Pass. i think the second page should will mention what document you need when you submit your IPA, after you receive your medical report, then just bring the report and related document with IPA to EPSC at clarke quay,the EPSC got welcoming staff to help you double check your document, but before that you need to make appointment to EPSC,my appointment is done by HR. maybe you need SingPass to make appointment, i not sure. |

QUOTE(Redondo04 @ Dec 6 2012, 02:12 PM) o....icic. Thanks ya... Mayb i know where do u go to do the medical check up? We can go to any doctor of our choice? Did your company provide you any panel doctor?i go to my company doctor and all the bill go to the company, so basically i just go to the place they told me and the doctor there know what to do. If your company does not have panel doctor, then you make sure you can claim the medical cost and what kind of checkup you needed, then only you go any doctor of your choice. |

QUOTE(alaskanbunny @ Dec 6 2012, 11:05 PM) i tried d power outlet b4, doesnt seem to work.. cant wait for them to hv internet... lol ya, really bad.. since last month got worse... m1's lte is through whole island... quality i dunno... but my fren's 3g seem to suck although we are 2 blocks away from m1's hq... lol I think the power outlet is control by the bus driver, they should have the main switch at driver side there, if they never turn on, you have no choice to use it... M1 LTE is already covered the whole island? so fast? wonder when is starhub..hehe |
