Applying for a personal loan with 4k salary

I have question.

Is it really possible to loan 10000 with 4k AED salary? I've read that the 5k AED salary is no longer a requirement in applying a loan.

Could somebody help me?

Looking for Buyout Loan / Debt Consolidation

I’m looking for buyout loan / debt consolidation, ideally to combine my existing liabilities into 1 monthly payment, reduce my EMI and DBR, and provide some additional cash.

My details:

* Salary: AED 7,500

* Company: Non-listed

* Salary Bank: DIB

* Amount Required: AED 150,000

* Current DBR: High

* AECB Score: 683

* DIB Personal Loan EMI: AED 2,520 (15 months paid)

* DIB Credit Card EMI: AED 1,438 (AED 32k limit)

* Mashreq Credit Card EMI: AED 930 (AED 16k limit)

* Total Current EMI: AED 4,888

* Payment History: No missed payments

House rent and food expenses are covered through additional income, so these are not paid from my monthly salary.

I have already approached ENBD, but they advised that my company is not listed. I also understand that some banks require a minimum salary of AED 10,000.

If you know of a bank or consultant who can assist with this type of case, please DM me with the details. Thank you!

Loan Rejected by NBD

I applied for a personal loan (buyout loan) from NBD and the branch agent told me it was rejected on his tablet and to try again in a month or two.

I didn't receive any email or sms for the rejection. It is still shown as in process in the app. I went again to the branch to get a reason why it was rejected they just said they cannot check and just ignored completely.

My profile is not the best and I didn't expect to go smoothly, but I expected to be get a reason so I can fix it and try again.

Is there a department I can reach out to know the reason for rejection?

Anyone has similar experience?

Ps. I have two contacts from ENBD and none of them are replying to my WhatsApp since it was rejected.

Seeking short term loan

I am seeking short term loan of AED50K for 2 months. Banks are not an option as I have my own company visa. I am working on my project hence I am needing this amount I fell short on. I am not offering any partnership or equity in the company/project hence it will be a simple transaction of lending and returning with a realistic %. Now I understand if any private oender steps in then the % will be higher than any financial institutions but I appreciate if the % is reasonable and realistic as I am here to work not to get trapped and risk my work or living. Notarized document along with cheque I can offer.

Salary transfer letter

Hey all, hoping someone in Dubai/UAE has been through this.

I recently switched jobs. My old company's end-of-service benefits are sitting with Emirates NBD because I have a personal loan with them. To release the funds, ENBD is asking for a Salary Transfer Letter (STL) from my new employer.

Problem is, my new company has a blanket policy of not issuing Salary Transfer Letters to anyone — they only provide a Salary Certificate. ENBD isn't accepting the certificate as a substitute.

Has anyone dealt with this exact situation?

Any solution

Credit Card or Personal Loan

I have around 5 credit cards with around 35k outstanding including multiple EPP. I have another auto loan of around 15k. Total installments would be around 5k which is close to 50% of my salary. But it will come down starting from next month when 1 by 1 the EPP will get finished. I am forecasting 5 to 6 months unable to complete credit card bill. Expecting around 4 to 5 k unpaid. Now I am confused whether I should take personal loan to consolidate this or run with it as the interest would be less if I am able to settle soon. But running with it will be stressful as I am trying to payout max amount struggling with everything else. But personal loan to cover the entire amount is huge interest and multiple years commitment. Last month I was short by 5k. This month I am expecting the same as there is my Family Visa renewal.

Moving to Riyadh

I have a loan with EIB that I can't pay off straight away. Can I continue paying from Riyadh?

What are my options? The loan agent is not being of much help.

Also since, I will be earning more, can I pay more towards the principal each month?
