Q: Hi,
I was working in Dubai and the owner of the company where I was working ran away from Dubai leaving all the employees stuck.
I was driving a rental car rented by the company as part of the contract between me and the company.
When I cancelled my visa, there was nobody to take the car from me so I left it with my friend who delivered the car later to one employee who returned it back to the rental car company.
I am now applying for a good conduct certificate from Dubai, would this car issue cause any troubles for me?

Criminal case by rent a car company in Dubai
4
Q: Hi
I had unpaid liability towards a car rental company based in Dubai. There was no cheque with them as they took a deposit from the cc.
The company filed a case in Feb 2019. I got to know about it when I checked online on the system; it also mentioned the station in which it has been registered.
But from a couple of months, it is not showing online. Please let me know what might be the reason and how to proceed further to get it cleared.
Thanks.

Q: I have not received my security deposit from a car rental company in Dubai. I returned the car on 3rd, April 2021 and have received confirmation of the return amount (834.35 AED) on 17th May 2021.
From that date, I have written to them to deposit the amount several times with no answer.

Canceling my MoU and getting my deposit back due to a low bank valuation and overpriced property 1
Hi,
I wanted to purchase a 2-bedroom apartment in JVC Dubai. I gave a 10% security deposit cheque to the seller. The price mentioned in the MoU is very high compared to other similar apartments in the same building.
The bank’s valuation also came in very low. Since the valuation is much lower, how can I terminate the MoU and get my cheque back? The MoU ends on 1st October 2024.
One of the articles in the MoU states:
In the event that the Buyer fails to make the payments as agreed or fails to complete the transfer on the agreed date due to his own acts or omissions, the Seller has the right to terminate this agreement and retain the deposit, provided that the termination is due to a violation of the agreed terms, unless both parties agree amicably to different dates.
I need help urgently.
