Unpaid debts and potential cases in the UAE


4
Q: I left Dubai 10 years ago with an unpaid credit card and a personal loan.
I was contacted a few times by a number of different collection agencies but none were willing to put an affordable payment plan in place to repay the debt and I was not in a position to settle the debt in full.
My husband has now gotten a job in Dubai, how can I resolve my case so that I can travel to Dubai with him?

Defaulting on credit card payments and checking records
17
Q: I have 5 credit card payment issues from 4 banks. Last year, I was detained for 2 days in the police station for one of the banks bouncing a cheque for AED 55,000.
I went to the prosecution and paid a fine of AED 5,000 and cleared the cheque bounce case. Now, two banks are saying that they have filed a case, but they have not provided me with any case number or other details regarding the same.
I tried to negotiate with the bank as I am having a bad financial situation since December 2017. Until this, all payments were done on time on every card.
I wish to know how I can check if the banks filed a civil case directly without bouncing the cheque and filing a criminal complaint. I checked on the Dubai police website to see if any criminal cases are present in my name but it showed nothing.
I am in doubt if I can travel in and out of the UAE. All my card limits are under AED 25000.
Please suggest what can be done to check if any travel ban or cases exist on my name.

جريمة الشيك بدون رصيد ما بين الوضع الحالي والوضع المستجد 19
يلعب الشيك دوراً مهماً في الحياة اليومية سواء في ميدان المعاملات التجارية أو في ميدان المعلامات المدنية باعتباره أداة وفاء والتزام تحل محل النقود في التعامل بين الافراد. ونظراً لهذه الأهمية فقد أصبح أكثر الأوراق التجارية انتشاراً وتداولاً بين الناس، على الرغم من حداثته نوعاً ما. فالشيك لم يبق كما كان في بداية عهده أداة لسحب الودائع المصرفية لحساب الساحب ذاته، بل أصبح أداة وفاء تحل محل النقود سواء على النطاق الداخلي بالنسبة للمعاملات التي يقوم بها الأفراد داخل الدولة فحسب وزادت أهميته.

My Dubai tenant's rental agreement is ending by the end of September 2024 and the completion of 12 months of legally served Eviction Notice is the end of December 2024.
I have two questions:
(a) Can I send a rent increase notice 3 months before as the rent has increased as per the RERA rent calculator?
(b) The second question is, do I have to renew the rental agreement for 3 months (until December 2024) or not?
Thank you.

How can I reach a settlement with the bank for a mortgage of a jointly owned property? 0
I have a jointly owned property in Abu Dhabi. The mortgage was defaulted on as I had to leave the property with my children following an assault by my ex-husband. He left the country in 2018 and never paid the mortgage.
As I was in the country, the bank filed a criminal case against me, and I was sentenced to 3 years. I won the appeal against the bank and then filed another criminal case a few months later in Dubai. Again, I won and paid a fine.
In 2019, the bank started a civil case against me and my ex-husband to have the property repossessed. However, at the time of the purchase of the property, there were no Title Deeds, the bank requires this.
I cannot give them the Title Deeds to sell the property and pay back the amount owed to them as my ex-husband refuses to provide a POA. The bank has filed another criminal case against me only for our jointly owned property.
I wish to resolve this and pay off the bank and receive any money left from the sale. How can I resolve this issue of the Title Deeds?

Can a real estate agency hold a percentage of a property sale until transfer is done? 0
A real estate agency has signed an MOU stating that a 10% security deposit from the buyer and the seller will be kept in the real estate agency and will be released upon transferring the property.
The transfer of the property was blocked due to the court order.
According to my colleagues, the real estate agency is not a trustee and they are not allowed to have taken my security check in the first place, is this correct?
