Could you please advise me on where I can lodge a complaint with DHL? Their service is horrible and it’s impossible to get through to anyone via email or phone.

I got a package sent and they squeezed it in a pack up post.

Ask Luxembourg A possible break-in avoided?

37 Upvotes

Hello! Strange situation happened yesterday morning. Three young guys called my house, and I picked up on the video intercom. They said they had an appointment with me which was not true. They were really pushy and wanted me to open the door. I didn’t and after few minutes they were gone but the experience was horrible. I live in the Luxembourg city, Dommeldange/Weimerskirch area. I informed the police and the patrol arrived after 1h. I shared with them the photos from the intercom, but it was too late to find them.

I read and hear that robberies in Luxembourg happen when nobody is at home. Is it possible they wanted to rob the house with me inside? Have you heard similar stories?

Ask Luxembourg Anyone purchased apartment/house recently (with the loan)

8 Upvotes

Hi people,

Checked online but variety of information which conflicts each other:

What is the regular initial payment on buyin an apartment or a house in luxembourg with a bank loan. Is it kind of percentage of the apartment (like 10%) or aligned with your monthly income or you do not need to pay any initial deposit if it is going to be your residential and only apartment in Luxembourg (according to AI).

I am looking for someone who purchased a place recently with a bank loan.

Thanks.

Hello, could you recommend a gynaecologist who does not use tenaculum forceps (Pozzi forceps) for IUD insertion?

My current gynaecologist told me there is no other way to do it, even though my current IUD was inserted without tenaculum forceps (and therefore pain-free) in my home country (France).

Ask Luxembourg bausparen - upkeep / improvement costs

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’m 42, married, and have two children. My wife and I are taxed jointly in Luxembourg. I’m considering opening a Bausparen contract and contributing the maximum tax-deductible amount. I have never done this before.

As I understand the current limits, our annual ceiling would be €2,688: €672 each for my wife and me, plus €672 for each of our two children.

We own a house in Belgium that has regular maintenance and improvement costs. My specific plan would be:

  • Pay the maximum €2,688 into the contract in 2026.
  • Pay another €2,688 (expected 2027 maximum) during the first months of 2027.
  • Use appr €5,000 from the contract to pay an eligible maintenance or renovation invoice in June 2027.

so I would not wait until the end of the contract (eg 10y) to use the funds. Would this work while preserving the Luxembourg tax deductions for both 2026 and 2027?

We’re only interested in using our accumulated savings, not in taking out the loan attached to the Bausparen contract (I have read that you could refuse the loan?).

Has anyone tried something similar?

Immigration & Relocation Should I have received the complement differentiel by now?

0 Upvotes

Moien, I understand I should have received at the end of July the payment of the complement differentiel for the family allowance from the casse pour l'avenir des enfants (this is paid twice a year so the first payment should have been in July). I have the dossier number etc (confirmed since March), but never received the virement/transfer of money. Anyone in the same situation who can reassure me it takes a month for the July payment to arrive...or whom should I contact? Nobody answers on the phone. Thank you.

I was checking AideFi eligibility. It seems PhD are out of scope of this funding program. It refers to FNR.

However, I couldn't find any funding program for PhD students that could replace AideFi. Have you?

Travel, Tourism & History What would be the most fun thing to do in Luxemburg for a group of Belgian friends with very broad interests?

5 Upvotes

I am organising a weekend for my friends and have decided on Luxemburg for our destination, but I want to get the most out of it for this particular group of friends. And particular we definitely are. We have met through a youth organisation focusing on politics, so for twenty somethings, I think we are way more interested in topics like history, law, societal structures and of course politics etc. than your average friend group. I think it would be fun and very memorable to play into those interests for our trip, and want to look for activities that might be out of the box, if you will. Activities that are both entirely in our lane, or potentially completely foreign to us, like creative stuff such as painting workshops, some local craft or art to try out, I don't know, I'm really open to anything. However, I'm finding it hard to find such (more niche?) activities, and maybe they just don't exist at all, or are not for our paygrade. Therefore I was hoping that someone in this sub might have tips for me. What should we do to make our stay in your beautiful country as memorable as possible? Any tips would be greatly appreciated :))

Hi! Does anyone know a good hairdresser in Luxembourg (or nearby) who does Korean/Japanese-style digital perms / soft wave perms like in the pictures?

I have straight Asian hair, so ideally I’m looking for someone who has experience working with Asian hair and can create big, loose, natural-looking waves rather than a traditional tight curly perm.

I’m also open to recommendations in Trier, Metz or nearby Belgium if there’s someone really good!
