Questions & Answers
Can I negotiate with the bank to reduce the installments of a loan to continue paying?
Dear Sir,
I have an outstanding loan and I have left KSA because I lost my job 2 years ago. The bank has used a legal firm in Dubai to contact me. Since I'm jobless for 2 years, I cannot afford to make payments.
Can I pay with the new payment schedule, with a lower installment that I can afford?
I think if we continue to make payments (any amount) the legal team has no right to block me from entering KSA in the future.
Please advise.
You can reschedule the loan with the bank to pay the amount in installments.
I advise you to contact the bank's public relations manager or any other official and explain the situation to them with an explanation of your commitment to continue paying the bank from outside Saudi Arabia.
In theory, you can pay from outside Saudi Arabia, and this depends on how the bank handles your exit from Saudi Arabia in terms of security.
If you succeed in paying, you can enter the Kingdom again.
