“Dear Steve,
Hi
actually this is a long story but i will try my best to scan in short..
i was working in dubai since 8 years…but as this recession cam in 2008 july for me i was kicked from my job which was related to reatil banking, after that i got job in MAF(OCTOBER 2008) well known company but cheap in agreement..they offered me 5000 dirhams which i accepted hapily coz it was same wat i was getting, onwards when i came on their visa they have cut down my salary to 2500 which was not acceptable for me..
i was having my car loan and 2 used credit cards with me i have requested them also to give me my exect salary on which i was agree. but they did not..and after that i have claimed in sharjah free zone but they also favoured that company which was the sister concern of that(innovation marketing) .
And after all these they terminated me without giving a termination letter(even i didnt resigne), and told me to exit, still my visa was not pasted on passport and i had to…otherwise i was over stay, and iwas the only one who had to pay tha..so what u ppl say wat rule say in this situation when i was sacked without informing and without getting any valid proof to show to banks
i came back homland in JANUARY 2009 even i work here(homland) i cant payback my debt i wanna com back to dubai and wantto overcome my debts,,
Important:I can fight legally from my country coz I dont wanto get bann for those ppl who decided my fate for not and also i am ban in other gcc like saudia arabia and kuwait
i came on resident visa H but as i explained they did not pasted my visa because i was not agree what they wre offering and they have given me my visa after a delay when iwas back in my hometown and than i got and i came
as i explained those scammers have their sister concern companies in sharjah free zone and i went to their legal department also but they just favoured that company which was located in their free zone and withdrawn my chase by saying that either u go back or stay in clear words on salary wat they r offering now after coming

The Answer:
Dear Mani,
This is certainly not the first time I have heard of gross unfair treatment of people in Dubai. I’m sorry you had to live through this. It is kind of ironic that you were working in retail banking.
The bottom line for this issue is how to resolve the outstanding debt you have back in Dubai. How much debt is that? Are you earning money now that you can use towards repaying that debt?
As far as the employment issues go, you would really need to find a lawyer in Dubai to represent you in those matters.
Please update me on your progress by posting updates here in the comments section of your question. I’m very interested in how this works out for you.
