If all else fails and this is stopping you working anywhere except UK and Saudi I would buy a certificate online. A lot of people do (especially here in the region), and most of it is never checked. It's not particularly honest, but it's not like you are claiming to have a skill you don't have. If however you bought yourself a medical degree and got hired as a doctor I would of course not condone that..

Blimey, I remember suggesting this a while back and got roasted for promoting 'fraud' This must happen all the time.

Even if you had the original, they can't check it as you said your examining body has lost all records anyway. Just goes to show that they don't check...

Forge it, I would.

General rule:

Anything 'senior', 'managerial', etc, will require a university degree in Qatar and Kuwait.

Saudi, Bahrain and the UAE don't require one as a legal obligation, although they are of course entitled as individual employers to do so.

Experience counts for much more in Saudi, Bahrain and the UAE than a piece of paper.

ah yes the University of England teaches you to boil a cat to cure flu- I wonder if his secret ingredient is Lempsip and paracetomol. My secret ingredient is whisky- works a treat!

Crikey - anyone ever bought a 'fake' diploma online - it's a minefield , just been Googling it, loads of sites - which one do I trust?

Errmm, hang on. Just realised what I'm asking. Do I trust a site that knowingly sell fake / forged qualifications. Oh dear, what have I got myself into...deeper and deeper into the mire.

Almeda University is said to be 'reputable', and they do actually check your background/CV etc before awarding you one of their qualifications........
