Hello, My basic salary stated in the contract is 1,000 dirhams, and the salary written was 1,000 dirhams as well. But I’m receiving 3,500 dirhams every month as per a verbal agreement between the company and me.

A pharmacy gave me the wrong set of medicine that was not prescribed by my doctor. Can I file a complaint?
