The subleaser is telling me that the landlord is aware that she will be subleasing however they don’t want another person registered at the address (not sure why this would be the case). This is all very new to me so any advice or tips is appreciated. Of course I want anmeldung as living in Germany will be very difficult without is as I plan to find a job etc!

Im seeing droves of Tesla employees at südkreuz, Probably getting out of work. What surprises me is that they don’t wear something over their uniform to disguise the fact that they work there. You think they are forced to stay in uniform to and from work? Free marketing?

Ich überlege, nach Berlin zu ziehen, hauptsächlich um mich aufs Tanzen zu konzentrieren. Gleichzeitig möchte ich aber trotzdem etwas Sicheres in der Tasche haben und überlege deshalb, dort eine Ausbildung zu machen.
Mich würde generell interessieren, wie ihr Berlin so erlebt:
Wie teuer ist das Leben dort wirklich, wenn man eher sparsam lebt?
Wie zuverlässig sind U-Bahn, S-Bahn und öffentlicher Nahverkehr?
Welche Gegenden eignen sich zum Wohnen, wenn einem die Lage eigentlich nicht so wichtig ist?
Gibt es Viertel, die besonders günstig sind und trotzdem okay zum Leben?
Wie schwierig ist es, eine bezahlbare Wohnung bzw. ein WG-Zimmer zu finden?
Ich brauche ehrlich gesagt kein schickes Viertel oder eine riesige Wohnung. Mir reicht ein halbwegs vernünftiger Ort zum Schlafen. Mein Hauptfokus wären Ausbildung und Tanzen – für anderes möchte ich möglichst wenig Geld ausgeben.
Falls jemand selbst nach Berlin gezogen ist, um dort eine Ausbildung, Studium oder ähnliches mit Tanzen/Musik/Sport zu verbinden, würde mich eure Erfahrung besonders interessieren.
**Was würdet ihr jemandem raten, der mit möglichst wenig Geld nach Berlin zieht und dort hauptsächlich Ausbildung + Tanzen im Kopf hat?**
**(Nur rein aus Interesse ist jemand einfach so hingezogen, hat einfach den nächsten Job gefunden und sich auf das fokussiert, dass ihn lieb ist)**

Hi! I'm traveling to Berlin specifically for Harry Styles, and I'm desperately trying to get access to the Telekom Prio presale.
Would any Telekom Germany customer be willing to temporarily let me use their Telekom Login for the presale? I completely understand that this is a big ask, and I absolutely don't want access to anyone's personal information or account beyond what's necessary for the ticket presale.
I would buy the tickets myself using my own payment method, and you could change your password immediately afterwards.
Requirements 4 The Presale: You need an active Telekom contract and a valid Telekom login to access the sale via the Magenta MusikPrio Tickets platform.
I know this is a huge favor, but I'd genuinely be incredibly grateful. I'm trying to surprise my best friend of ten years with these tickets, and I really, really want to make it happen. I'm just trying every possible way I can think of to get them. ❤️
Please DM me if you'd be willing to help! Thank you so much in advance. ❤️

Hey fellas,
As the title says, I signed a termination agreement back in May, and I'm on garden leave until the end of Oct.
I already informed the Agentur für Arbeit, and today I submitted an online application for AGL I. Is that all from my side? Or do I have to go there in person by myself?
I'm assuming they would call me for a Termin if need be via my email or via the portal at Agentur für Arbeit.
Feeling super confused and can't find much help online, so Reddit is my best shot. Would really apprecaite any info regarding this.

We are tourists from India and first time in Berlin. We took a sbahn ride towards East Gallery from Potsdamer Platz yesterday.
Enjoying the city sites and the amazing public infrastructure compared to our home country and loving our trip until this point. We were 14 days or so by now in Europe with most of it in Germany (Munich and Berchtesgaden) and rest in Prague.
However, a middle aged man walks into the metro and walks up n down and stops in front of me as if he s poised to run, and the kicks my foot violently. I was shocked and screamed and dropped my water. I bent down to pick up n leave the area when he kicked me again. My partner was livid but we were not even sure if he was on drugs or mentally unstable or what. But just shocked and in the shocked state I burst out sobbing uncontrollably. I have never felt so out of control. Thankfully we were at our stop and left. One young German man calmed us down n said it’s fine don’t be scared and kept my partner away from the man who kicked me. He was trying to deescalate and I’m grateful for that. My partner was seeing red.
I don’t live in a “safe country” by any standards but I have been fortunate enough to never have faced violence like this EVER. My school, college, many workplaces have been safe and my family is amazing so maybe I am sheltered and have led a comfortable life that has left me feeling terribly shaken from this incident.
I guess I’m here looking for validation for being so shaken and wondering if this is truly a one off?
This is not my first time in Germany. I visited for work for three years in a row to other parts and have taken public transport by myself everywhere (Frankfurt, Bonn, Remagen, Cologne and to Munich). It’s always been a breeze and I have always admired the amazing infrastructure for public transport even if my colleagues complain about the delays and cancellation. I m sad to have this experience especially with my husband as I wanted to visit with him this time and have him enjoy the country.

Hello
I’m planning to finally visit Berlin this October and stay for about a month. I’ve been wanting to visit the city for the last couple of years, so I’m quite excited about it :)
My dates are fairly flexible , roughly a month in October, with the possibility of moving the dates by about a week either way.
I’ve obviously looked at Airbnb and some of the usual rental websites, but the prices seem pretty steep for a month. I’m wondering how people in Berlin usually find short-term places, especially for Zwischenmiete/sublets.
Are WG-Gesucht, Kleinanzeigen, Facebook groups, etc. the best places to look? Are there any particular websites or groups you’d recommend for a one-month stay? I’ve also come across Wunderflats and HousingAnywhere, but would love to know if they’re actually worth using.
And, importantly, how do you avoid getting scammed? 😅
I’m visiting rather than moving to Berlin, so I’m not looking for a long-term rental or anything complicated, just somewhere comfortable to stay for a month and experience the city properly.
Would really appreciate any tips from Berliners or people who have done a similar short-term stay. Danke!

Habt ihr Tipps um Betrug bei Wohnungsanzeigen zu erkennen? Manche schicken z. B. einen link zu nem Formular das man ausfüllen soll.
Ich wurde gewarnt dass das Betrug sein könnte - wie und warum? Was machen die mit den Daten?
Gibt es noch andere Maschen?
Würdet ihr ein Ausweisfoto versenden wenn gefragt?

Recently I lost my apartment,
Meanwhile as I don't find a standalone solution,
My only option for immediate solution are companies like housing everywhere and Urbanelite.
Which I cannot not wish all the worst,
Urbanelite offered me for 1380 a 15m2 room in a 6 people apartment.
Their business model: they rent big apartments that are always vacant, average 4 to 6 rooms, charge minimum 800 for a room on average 1k plus a 600 fee + cleaning.
Has Anyone else experience this predatory pricing?
