التفاوض على متأخرات بطاقة ائتمان مع البنك

مرحبًا، فقدت عملي منذ عام، ولدي مبالغ مستحقة ببطاقة الائتمان بقيمة 300 ألف درهم إماراتي. تخلفت عن سداد التسعة أشهر الماضية (أتفاوض مباشرة مع البنك). أستطيع سداد بطاقة الائتمان على دفعة واحدة عن طريق صديق لي سيقرضني هذا المبلغ.
ما هو المقدار الذي يمكنني التفاوض عليه لخصمه من مبلغ الـ 300 ألف درهم إماراتي لتسوية الأمر؟ هل يجب علي أيضًا أن أطلب خطاب مخالصة / عدم مسؤولية؟

I think from what I have seen before you can negotiate with the bank and get a discount for all charges, interest, fines etc. However, the bank will never go one dirham less than the original debt.

And yes of course, if you reach an agreement with the bank, you need to sign some sort of a letter that confirms that the 300K is now x amount and this shall be considered as the final amount and the letter shall be deemed as a clearance letter.

Thank you for your answer.

After going through my credit card statements, I found out that the original debt on the credit card (i.e. cash advance and payments made using the credit card during the last 5 years) has been fully paid back to the bank (i.e. if you add the sum of monthly payments made to card, it turns out to be 10% higher than the original debt). The AED 300k is then purely interest, charges and late fines.

Do you think they can waive it all considering my current situation? Or how much can they discount?
