215
Q: I'm working in Dubai as a receptionist in a spa and CID caught us. They say it's illegal and they put us in jail and got deported after getting our eye scan and fingerprints in Al Aweer.
Now I'm trying to get a visa but they say I'm on lifetime ban. Is there any chance that I can come back to Dubai?
Thank you

Bank filed a civil case over a loan: Better to settle with the bank or in court? 0
Good day, Sir,
I have received a message from the Dubai Court stating that a bank has filed a civil case against me. The loan has been pending since February 2019.
I cleared the cheque bounce case earlier with a court fine in 2019. I am looking forward to a minimum settlement plan with the bank. The outstanding amount was around 70,000 AED, and now the message is for 115,000 AED.
What will be the best way for me to proceed: approaching the bank or dealing with it in court?
Best regards,

Hello,
I have given my notice, and my last day is July 24, but the employer is refusing to pay my salary; even the salary for June. Is this even legal?
He claims I'll get everything at once, which is after leaving the country or changing status.
