Q: Hi,
I am an Indian National living in the UAE. I have 1 credit card, I do not have any loan and I also do not have any EMI to pay but I have AED 25000 due to pay for my credit card.
Now I got a job in Saudi Arabia and I am unable to pay all the money at once.
My question is that, can I leave the UAE without paying the due amount? Will it create any issue at the airport while leaving to India on the final exit?

A finance company had filed a police case against me. I have settled my credit at the police station and paid the fines.

Defaulting on credit cards and negotiating with banks to settle them

1
Q: I have 3 credit cards:
Bank 1 - 18,000
Bank 2 - 18,000
Bank 3 - 20,000
I am really unable to pay my debt and they are harassing me that they will file a case against me. I was paying all of them continuously since 2018. I just had a hard time and missed my payment since Jan 2020.
I want to settle them but they don't give me a chance; they always say that they will file a case. I am not running. I told them I will pay once I find a job.
What is the best way to fix them as I am planning to leave the country in a year? Until now, I am jobless since Jan 2020 and its hard to find a job now. I am willing to get charged by your service.
Thank you!

I live in Dubai and I just topped up my loan. I also have a credit card from a bank. I always pay on time. I was offered a job abroad and my visa will be canceled soon.
