استرداد العربون بسبب مخالفة بنود العقد لاتفاق المشتري والمطور
س: دفعت مبلغ حجز لمطوِّر قبل توقيع أي عقود رسمية لشقة، عند معاينة شقة العرض للمشروع قام البائع بإبلاغنا بأن رسوم الخدمات ١٤ درهم وبأن الشقة سيتم تسليمها بنفس تفاصيل تشطيبات شقة العرض وأن العقد غير جاهز حاليًا وسيتم تجهيزه بعد يومين. تم هذا كله أمام أحد الوسطاء العقاريين الرسميين، وعند طباعة العقود تبين أن رسوم الخدمات ١٧.٥ إلى ١٨ درهم والتفاصيل التي ذكرها البائع بشأن بعض التشطيبات كما بشقة العرض غير مذكورة بالعقد، وعند العودة الى البائع تردد وأنكر وبعد مخاطبة شركته، لم يتعاونوا معي أبدًا ولم يُعيدوا مبلغ الحجز. كيف يمكنني استرجاع المبلغ علمًا بأنه يوجد لدي فقط وصل مختوم بالمبلغ المدفوع وشهادة شركة الوساطة العقارية؟ Questions & Answers

إتمام سداد أقساط الشقة وتوقيع واستلام نسخة العقد النهائي من خارج البلاد
س: السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته، أنا مسافرة خارج بلدي وعندي موعد تسديد قسط لشقتي بموجب إيصال أمانة لدى البائع. ونظرًا للظروف الحالية وانتشار الفيروس وإغلاق جميع المجالات الجوية والطيران، لن أستطيع النزول لبلدي وسداد آخر قسط لصاحب الشقة وخصوصًا أن الشقة باسمي ولابد من وجودي وإمضائي على نسختي العقد النهائي. أخشى إن أخرت سداد القسط عن موعده المحدد أن يؤذيني البائع بأي شكل وخاصة أنه بيننا وبينه مشاكل قديمة وخلافات حول اتحاد الملاك. ما الحل القانوني الأمثل لسداد الدين وحفظ حقي واستلام إيصال الأمانة ونسخة العقد النهائي؟ أرجو التكرُّم بإفادتي! شكرًا مقدمًا!

Deducting housing allowance from end of service gratuity upon resignation
Q: I have resigned from my current job and my last day is May 9th after a notice period of 2 months. I was employed for 4 years. My employer has paid me a full year housing allowance and would like to deduct the remaining months from my end of service. Is this allowed? I have not been made aware that the amount would be deducted in case I resign. Also, I am entitled to 30 days of leave per year. Since I have resigned, they have applied a pro-rata for this year for the end of service calculation. Is this allowed? Shouldn`t I be compensated for the 30 days that I have not taken? Thank you!
