This “m 98 world” manpower recruiting agency, mahooz offering 2 year canada work visa for all type of people (Skilled / unskilled) . They charge bd. 40 for registration from the candidate. And also they said 10 months for visa processing. I register there june 2011, that time they gave one receipt for 40 bahrain dinar, but that receipt they put one stamp also unfortunately that stamp is "m98 food" now my doubt how they can stamp these seal for manpower recruiting purpose, and also i saw their certificate of registration (Cr) , there cr activities is entirely difference from their profession (Manpower recruiting) . This is a single person company (Spc) . They daily gave big advertisement in all news papers and magazine. I contact this agency january 2012 through telephone and they told me february last is your medical in alkindi hospital, bahrain. But still they didn’t contact me yet. But if we call them theay are saying come and collect your medical form and take medical result from al kindi hospital, (Medical charge we want to pay bd. 150 / - to hospital) also we want to sign one declaration form from m98 world company. I met some other candidate their, they are also share the same story. Everybody saying if we contact they are saying we are planing to contact you. Also this hospital they have no information from any employer from canada also they have no responsibility for the job. If we go their they will take our medical result that’s all. (It’s their job we can’t say anything) . Now i want know about this m98 world company, is it geneuine company? Did they have any authorisation of manpoweer recruiting from bahrain? If anybody know about this company please reply.

M98 they said they are legal but I know they r legal only in papers . I think they took Money only, they don't have any kind of vacancies . Those who going to apply they put thier application on trash and telling them it will 2 month bla bla bla. You all will see one day will run away.

hi syengo, it's nice to see you respond to M98 comp. i hope that M98 World will react to this forum and concerns soon. having heard what m98 comp has been through, it is not a good sign. yes, it's true that some people who registered with M98 is earning BD90 and has to pay BD40 and this money is not a joke. yes, people are losing hope already because like what i said before, M98 has a given a timeframe of 8-10 months processing to applicants but most had reached 13-14 months and still waiting for a feedback! all we are asking is for M98 to let us know where are we standing now, how long do we still have to wait? honestly, in my opinion, this is the kind of answer i will get from someone who doesn't know what they are doing and they are telling everyone that they have been in the business for a long time. it's just sad to have an experience like this. now they are spreading the ad in qatar and who knows where!

im here in qatar, , , and i was submitted my application in doha branch this early 2012 and i used to read daily newspaper and they have been advertising this hiring almost everyday, , , and with these kind of complaints that i've read in this site, i am losing hope to continue waiting for this because i dont like to waste my time for nothing, i just tried to apply here hoping that after i finished my 2 years contract here in qatar i can directly go to canada, hence no need to apply in my home country and unfortunately, there's a lot of people i've known who submitted and paid 800 riyals, on the other hand, , im still hoping for a good result...pls keep us updated what is happening to the application of others, , , , , , , thankssss

this issue m98 has now alarmed, and am afraid of most people who trusted the company are not fools, i am dissapointed with the issue about this guy who left to his country with a family, as he was a bread winner, it also applies to me my friend did the same, , to shock me when i was there the secretary told me that they had started receiving work visa and its turning to be absolutely opposite to wat am getting in this forum...yes its a legal company we agree coz you will show us the licence, we need to get updates benig 13 mnths now counting empty handed, its not wat the clients wanted and it will be a shame, as many of them have lost hope already...we were not expecting this real dissaponting and m98 should accept the responsiblity of all those who applied there, , money is hard to get and there is nothing less...failure to do so then i think action must be taken immeditely, press and media being first the idea to halt any more recruitments until they clear with the first, or option 2 report to labour ministry to folow out a through inspection of the validity of the licence...rem the company is dealing with labour issues its not operating like a fish market when you get a bad product its done, , , , this is labour matters which tend to be very sensitive... M98 TAKE THE RESPONSIBILTY IMMEDIATELY...

it's so sad to hear your story. how can they do that to someone. it may not only be you, maybe there are others like you out there. i called them again to make a follow up but the lady said that we just have to wait. i told her about all the negative feedback and she said that they are aware of this complaints but they don't care and just kept repeating "we are a legal company, we are a legal company" if you don't want to wait it's up to you! how professional are they? if we want to complain, we have to do it together. one person will not change anything.

M98 is fake please forward this message by social sites so that the people who going to apply they will know truth about m98 share your stories so that people who going to apply they will aware of it. I am already have 1 year still don't have any information about my application they only take money BD 40 after that they will run from their responsibility. They told us don't renew your contract go home it will take 2month only know its already 4 month no result .know we don't have work and we cant apply somewhere else . How come this m98 can do that someone left the job because of their fake commitment . I have 2 children it's very hard and it's haram . God will punish them inshallah

if you are alone or if you have friends who registered with M98, then probably best to go there together, set a date and inquire to ease our doubts and to let them explain where are we really standing with this application.

People may i ask who is the first applicant that applied in M98 when did you applied, i only applied this early this 2012, but base upon your messages thing are not going right, 40BD is a hard earned money and after that 150 which is harder earned money and it will go on to waste, how can we be sure that they really forwarded our papers to the employer they can easily say that we are not accepted just like that, May Allah have mercy on this company if they are the truthful

still no news anyone? i have a friend who's now leaving to Canada but unfortunately NOT from M98. i asked him how much he paid for his medical and it was just BD95! that's weird because Al Kindi is asking BD150 for medical if you are coming from M98, I inquired by phone and asked how much is the pre employment medical, the lady said it's BD90. so I asked why they are asking for BD150, they said it's "other charges" for M98. i don't know if I will still be surprised about this! MONEY MONEY MONEY! Is this the reason why it's not also ACCEPTED by M98 to take pre-employment from other hospitals?

I'm calling you mark, can you please give your thought about this. ;p

I applied August no I don't have anything only theirs words extending months . We r very disappoint to this company, we can understand applying Canada its. Take time but how long they are not specify on it. We lose the hope already . I don't think so until know someone fly for Canada by m 98 . I personally recommend to everyone not to apply this company, if you don't want to waste your time and money.

This company m 98 is not trusted it's fake when I applied there they told me that it will take 8 to 10 month know is going to 1 year already, I have nothing in my hand as a legal document . Everytime I called them they said its will take 1 more month it's already 5 month they are saying like that . I request all who going to apply there please don't apply, you will waste ur money and most important your time, they told us when we worked in Bahrain don't renew your contract go to you country and take rest for 2 month know already going to 4 month, we don't have job because of m98 until know we are ### at home waiting for nothing. Please be aware before you apply.

JACKAL18/12/1 No need to sweat yourself over what you don't have a clue, as much as I am concerned, M 98 World.com Bahrain Branch Is very much running, just as many other branches including your in Qatar and Europe, its daily business activities and still registering as much more candidates for the jobs advertised in the Daily Gulf News.So to call them a scam, and you registered already, makes me wonder, you are hardly three weeks and expect to know a lot, if you were a good reader you would have your answers and fears dealt with appropriately by reading and researching than express your fears and write what your thoughts have but no truth. get facts and not worries you will be OK.
as for the introductions, already in the advertisements and location of office is enough, you are a client, am sure even your doctor you only know them by their name and profession not personality, for it is about their professional service than personality we are after. m98 is not Canadian Embassy but a mediator between us and Canada and the prospective employer, if the employers have trusted them enough to outsource professional staff, why cant we also be patient enough to let the system work for us?
TRUTHISNOW TOLD: what basis or fact makes you tell us m98 is a scam? as far as am concerned None has yet raised a fact to discredit m98 as a scam. they did not ask for ATM details and gave receipts with declaration forms that we read and signed as we agreed to their terms willingly. then needless to add, different rates apply to different places based on many factors and so pricing will vary from one place to another, and client to another, we cant expect a unified fixed price as a supermarket, if you need BD40 you could have registered in Bahrain, nobody stopped you did they? you don't like the price of a given shop, try the next or another that suits you, that doesn't make the shop a scam does it?
OUCH 13: As long as the truth is out there, you cant stop it can you even if it is hidden in the comments? the day you will raise a fact, that is the day i will side with you, but as far as its hear say, there is a proverb, and a metaphor that goes the croaking of a frog, wont stop cows from drinking water in a river, can they? lets base what we say on facts but not wish wash as per our worries and fears!

hey guys becareful im also like one you guys, i think he has already been closed his office in baharain then has come qatar, i sucked when i first met him to the office, he is a just one person at the office and doesn't want to introduce himself to anyone alse, i did not see you guys comments before i apply, and why he has taken different charges, he has taken 40 BD in baharain, which is roughly QR.400 but he charged QR, 800.00 in qatar,
