Bank filed a cheque case and travel ban despite cooperation. What to do?

Dear Sir/Madam,

Based on the advice from the bank, I have been paying a minimum amount towards the card because of other settlement plans. Surprisingly, the bank filed a cheque execution case, and a travel ban is issued.

I have always cooperated with the bank but they did this to me.

The bank has all the documents that I shared and I have all the communications and payments made through.

I need advice on how to resolve this.

Dear questioner,

Checks are dealt with in the UAE as independent papers regardless of the reason for which the check was issued. I believe that the bank sued you for a security check.

Therefore, we believe that there should be a settlement agreement with the bank that contains all the circumstances that previously occurred between you and the bank.

In addition, the bank must return the new security check to you, and the settlement agreement must be notarized in front of a notary public.

This is the most secure way to settle with any bank in the UAE.

Thank you so much, Madam Mariam!

May I ask whether they will remove the travel ban if the document is signed and agreed upon and the payment plan is begun?

Yes!
