Know your right while taking personal loan from the Bank
As per Qatar Central Bank, no bank is allowed to obtain security cheques from any borrower, it is forbidden. The reason is that non payment on the cheque is a criminal offense and for a criminal offense, the police have to put a "Travel Ban" on the defaulter, which as a result forces the person to remain in the country till the full repayment of the loan is made irrespective of his job or financial resources. Despite this law, the Banks tend to obtain the cheques. Therefore know your right and never give any cheque while taking personal loan. It is illegal and can become the worst trap.
They would simply deny the loan if you don't provide the cheque :)
In Qatar all people take security cheques. For example bank take it for loan and credit card. House owner take it as security deposit. Could you please send us the link to the relevant information page of QCB.
