Depositing a cheque despite arranging to proceed with an EMI scheme
Dear Sir/Madam,
I have noticed a cheque bounce case filed against my credit card. I have informed them before that I will proceed with an easy EMI scheme through instalments. However, they deposited the cheque; the amount showing is AED 50,000.
Can you please advise how to proceed further?
Can I go to the police station directly?
How much is the fine that I have to pay?
Dear Questioner,
You have not specified the cheque dishonour complaint has been filed in which emirate. I assume it is in Dubai.
Please note that in Dubai, any amount less than AED 200k is punishable with fines only. For 50k, fines would be less than AED 10k.
You may check your criminal status by giving your emirates ID details on the Dubai police website and then you may proceed to pay fines.
Please note that your question has been answered keeping in mind the complaint is filed in the Emirate of Dubai.
Please feel free to contact me via phone or email if you need any assistance, information or guidance in this matter.
Thank You!
