How does this country works?

I ask myself this question very often, I have many theories but I do not see the evidence for any of those. In other words, I don't understand.

Today I found this interesing video, and I am not sure whether I should cry or laugh after seeing it.



Good luck!

Rent a car in Brussels and get a traffic fine for free


My friend rented a car for a few days. After a few months she received this kind letter from HERTZ asking her to pay a traffic fine, and the extra charge. And all this for a fine she never got, look at the date please!!!!

"Soon" a new hotel in Brussels


And soon in Brussels means in two years time, in 2012.
No it is not a mistake. I feel like I am in a developing country some times. Why bother with bad service? Am I becoming indifferent?

PROJECT: AFTERWORK SHOPPING

From Tuesday 1 June 2010 to Thursday 30 September 2010

The shopkeepers "welcome" you every Thursday until 8 pm in the Dansaert area, around the Grand Place, the Vismet and St Jacobs. Instead of kicking you out at quarter to seven, they will kick you out at quarter to eight. Unbelievable right? Take a look on the website to see all the animations, contests, practical information and the 750 participating shops.

YES WE CAN...give customer satisfaction



When I received this letter from my home insurance, I checked the Belgian-French dictionary to see whether the meaning of satisfaction was the one I thought.



After living in Belgium alomst 5 years, it is the first time a receive a letter like this. OK, I received emails, and online surveys.....but not a nice letter like this.

What is going on? are things starting to change? why do they care about customer satisfaction? I thought they only cared about bills and strict opening hours.....maybe I am wrong.


10.000 extra points for AXA!!!!!

The smallest bill ever!!!!!

Indeed one the things in which Belgians are the best in the planet is not "frites" it is BILLING.

However, why the hell should they care for 2 euro ??????


Even worse, I received this bill begining of april, and this bill is from a "service" I had 25 of January. And actually, I already received a first bill concerning the same service, but months ago.... I don't understand.

Only the paper and the envelope propable cost more than the amount due. But this is as real as sureal is Brussels. Maybe that is why they send it on paper, for you to believe it.
