0
Q: Dear Tony,
My friend was working in the UAE and had to leave in 2009 as he lost his job during the recession. He had a credit card payment of approximately AED 14000 in total with 3 different banks.
Now, he intends to come back to the UAE. I believe there is a police case and he will have to pay some court fine. We need help in identifying where is the police case logged.
How we can we pay the court fine and get the police clearance certificate and remove any kind of travel ban so that he can travel freely without any issues?
Regards
A.

Inquiring about police cases for defaulting on loan and credit card

Q: Good day!
I would like to know how can I know if the finance company files a case against me!
If I inquire at the nearest police station, is there a possibility that they can detain me if the finance company filed a case against me?
I have a loan and a credit card, but unfortunately, I was not able to pay them for almost 11 months now due to financial problem.
That's why I want to know if they already filed a case against me and hope you can help me with this matter.

Can I exit the country without clearing my credit card dues?
17
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?

Deducting housing allowance from end of service gratuity upon resignation 0
I have resigned from my current job and my last day is May 9th after a notice period of 2 months. I was employed for 4 years.
My employer has paid me a full year housing allowance and would like to deduct the remaining months from my end of service. Is this allowed? I have not been made aware that the amount would be deducted in case I resign.
Also, I am entitled to 30 days of leave per year. Since I have resigned, they have applied a pro-rata for this year for the end of service calculation. Is this allowed?
Shouldn't I be compensated for the 30 days that I have not taken?
Thank you!
