    Air India forgot my bag

    So, air India forgot to bring one bag on my flight from DXB to Mumbai. They say they have located it and I should have it by evening today, but I don’t trust it. It’s been over 24 hours since I’ve not had my bag and it’s got all my baby stuff. Apart from actually and when even I do get the bag, can I claim compensation from air india for the delay? Has anyone done it ? How complicated is it and does it actually work?

    What’s the job market like?

    As I prepare to move back to India later this year from Canada, I'm curious about the current job market situation there, particularly in the field of marketing. With over four years of hands-on experience in marketing and holding two marketing degrees, I'm keen to understand the opportunities and challenges I might encounter upon my return.

    Any thoughts appreciated.

    Is it possible to give NEET exam while studying medicine outside India?

    Hii guys  

    I wanted to ask a question on behalf of my cousin. So my cousin was in Geneva, and he missed the deadline for the NEET exam for this year. I think he is going to join a medical or dental school in Milan. He is going to give the exam, so in the future, if he wants, he can work in India as a backup option. Would it be possible for him to take the exam next year while he is still enrolled in the medical/dental school? I think he’ll be in Year 1 by then. I am asking this because someone told me that once you enrol in a medical or dental school, you cannot give the exam, and you have to quit the medical or dental school or not be enroled in any course to give the exam. I would really appreciate any help.

    First time moving to Mumbai

    Recently got a job offer of 60L (no variable no bonus) in Mumbai. Office is in BKC. Currently in UAE with ~35k aed/month salary. Started my career here so never worked in India. I am currently single, have parents to support. I have always lived and grew up in mid-sized cities in India, and this will be my first time living in Mumbai. Heard a lot of good things about Mumbai as well as how expensive it is and how brutal is traveling especially during monsoons. Would really like to seek some very direct answers to help me gauge whether it would be a good move.

    1. What is the average rent for a 2 BHK in BKC in a good area and in which areas should I look for rentals? (My parents will live with me, please don't judge)

    2. I live modestly and don't spend unnecessarily on myself. What is the minimum I can save with this salary in a city like Mumbai per month and post tax how much it translates to? Online it shows a big variation. Understand it depends so minimum or average will be helpful.

    3. Is it feasible to live in Navi Mumbai and travel to BKC either through taxi or bus?

    Why do people here refer to potato chips as wafers?

    Been in mumbai for two weeks and i am surprised whenever i hear people saying wafers.

    I mean technically they are not wrong, but its so odd to hear wafers, when all your life you heard it being chips.

    So what's the story here, how come everyone refers to it as wafers?

    Think I got scammed by Ola driver

    I was travelling from Lokhandwala to Bandra in an Ola around 2pm, the driver randomly got a call midway and he was pleading a doctor to discharge his 3 year old baby and waive off ₹1900 of the hospitalisation charges. He stated that he lost wife 2 years ago and doesn’t have an extended family. He also mentioned that he hasn’t eaten anything since morning - mind you all this was on his telephonic conversation with the doctor. I felt really bad for him and asked him to send me his daughter’s reports on whatsapp - since one of my acquaintances owns an NGO focusing on child healthcare. I additionally gave ₹500 for his lunch. He hasn’t sent me the reports. I’m an overly sensitive person. I feel really bad that I’ve been taken advantage of

    Mumbai Suburban District Commission Holds Indian Airlines Responsible for 24-Hour Delay Due to Failure in Mandatory Pre-Flight Checks.

    The District Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission in Mumbai newly made a judgment about a complaint against Indian Airlines, which is part of Air India. Here is what happened

    A person purchased a return ticket from Bangkok to Mumbai with Indian Airlines. They came at the airport three hours before the flight, got their boarding pass, and awaited at the gate. Still, the flight kept getting delayed, and ultimately, it was canceled after the passengers had waited until 50:0 a.m. They were also given a place to stay at a hostel.

    The passenger felt worried about this and complained to the District Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission in Mumbai. They asserted that the airline was careless and did not give reasonable service.

    The airline disagreed with the complaint. They said the delays were because of personal effects they could not control and that they kept passengers informed about what was passing. They also said they arranged for the passengers to stay in near hotels and handed meals.

    The Commission agreed that the airline followed the rules and tried to help passengers when the flight was canceled in Bangkok. But they set up that the airline made a mistake at the New Delhi Airport. They did not do important safety checks before the flight, which caused a long delay of nearly 24 hours. Because of this mistake, the airline was considered careless and did not give good service.

    The Commission said the passenger could not get a refund for the ticket because they had used the service to travel from Mumbai to Bangkok without any problems. But they did say the passenger should get compensation for the trouble they went through. So, the airline was told to pay the passenger ₹ 75,000 for the inconvenience and loss of work, and also ₹ 10,000 for the cost of the legal process.

    In simple terms, the Commission said the airline did okay in some ways, like handling the cancellation in Bangkok, but messed up with safety checks in New Delhi, causing a big delay. They said the passenger should get compensation for the trouble, but they could not get their ticket money back because they earlier used the service. So, the airline has to pay the passenger some money for the problems they faced.

    Published by Voxya as an initiative to help consumers in resolving consumer complaints.
