س: مرحبًا سيدتي،  أخذت وكالة ليس لديها ترخيص للقيام بأعمال تأجير العقارات (لقد عرفت هذا اليوم) أموالي مقابل إقامتي لمدة ستة أشهر في شقة فندقية. لم يوفروا لي الإقامة وبعد بذل الكثير من الجهود، تمكنت من استعادة جزءًا من أموالي. لكن الوكالة ترفض دفع المبلغ المتبقي ولا تفتح مكتبها ولا ترد على مكالماتي (لقد حظرت رقم هاتفي ولا ترد على أي رقم جديد). هل يمكنني رفع قضية في مركز فض المنازعات الإيجارية وأيضًا المطالبة بالتعويض عن كل المشاكل التي مررت بها أنا وعائلتي وكذلك الدفع مقابل النفقات التي تكبدتها؟ لقد حصلوا على مبلغ قيمته 2000 درهم نقدًا، وشيك قيمته 12500 درهم بتاريخ 2 مايو (الذي صرفوه) وشيك آخر قيمته 12500 درهم. بعد أن اتصلت بهم الشرطة، أعادوا شيكي الثاني الذي لم يصرفوه و7000 درهم نقدًا. هناك مبلغ مستحق الدفع قيمته 7500 درهم مستحق الدفع لي. يرجى تقديم المشورة. شكرًا لك، س.

Q: Our office is going for a rental contract with a company (both the names on the contract are of companies). However, they want us to pay cheques in the name of an employee of the company (individual) as they have some problem with their company account. Is it legal to do so? And how can we safeguard ourselves? Best Regards

Q: I was a resident of Sharjah and was staying in a 2 BHK apartment. As I was looking for a furnished apartment on rent for a short span of 6 months only, the landlord denied to make the agreement but verbally decided to accept the rent upfront each month and asked for 1-month rent as security. I objected to giving any security deposit but promised to pay rent at the beginning of each month and gave him a cheque with 1-month rent amount if I don’t make the payment at the beginning of the month but not a security deposit. Due to living with the family, I had to look for another option I moved to a new apartment before the new month started. Now, the landlord is asking for rent for the month in which I’m not going to stay and threatening me to deposit the cheque of AED 1,600/- and get the cheque bounced and take legal action to put me behind the bar. I have paid AED 1,000/- for utility in advance for which bill was generated as AED 640/- only. What are the legal ways to come out of this??

Q: Hi guys, Please help me! I am a young lady just trying to make ends meet, but I was scammed. I saw a flat that I wanted to rent, so I contacted the real estate company and went for a viewing. I paid an AED 8,190 booking fee, which was refundable if they did not honor the deal. The day to sign the contract came, but I was given excuses. I requested my refund and was given a check that the bank rejected. I reported this to Dubai Land, and they contacted the company to pay me back. I received AED 4,000, but they still owe me AED 4,190, which I really need back. Dubai Land said I must contact a legal advisor, but I cannot afford one. Please advise me on how to go about this situation. I would appreciate any help. These guys have since resorted to ignoring me. I have a copy of the receipt, the check, and the emails to support all of this.
