My Contingency Plan

Hi everyone, Today, I want to share my contingency plan. I worked in Saudi Arabia, but I didn’t receive my End of Service benefit, which should have been 2.5 million Philippine pesos. Because of this, I’ve decided not to pay my credit cards there. Honestly, not paying those cards isn’t even enough to cover what I lost. I know it sounds bad, but I feel like I have no choice. This is my way of making a plan after losing something I worked hard for and deserved.

It’s a tough call, but not paying could hurt your credit score down the road and come back to affect you later. If you’re struggling to pay them back after losing your job, it’s important to let your credit card companies know about your situation. They might be able to work out some kind of arrangement so you can pay them back when it’s more manageable for you.

Yes, it will definitely hit my credit standing hard, but I don't mind cutting ties with Saudi Arabia anymore.

@Neil43 Hopefully you can find better ways to resolve this amicably instead of simply walking away from those obligations.

They made sure I couldn't claim with all the legalities. May the bad karma beset them for that.

I can understand why you are doing that. I hope it doesn’t come back to harm you. What happened to you was not fair.

That is not right that you did not get paid.

Wow That's around 40k dollars of my maths are correct Why did you not get the End of Service benefit? Not paying your credit cards might come back and bite later on
