I paid this credit card off quick for the Harley.
Long before the promotion so called no interest time frame they offered me.
What got me was they said yes this was promotion through Emirates bank, no interest for 90 days.
Yet I was charged full interest rate because they said I did not do some special paper requesting this promotion.
I paid this off quick as I flew for midex airlines and job was not secure, constant contract changes , no pay etc.
Did not want to leave the UAE with any debt.
I shipped the bike home after my contract ended.
I do agree riding a bike in the UAE is challenging even for me , have been on a bike for over 40 years and never have I seen such dangers as in DXB from
the Indian Taxi drivers or arabs talking on cell phones not paying attention to there driving.
Told one that sorry if i interrupted his safety with my loud pipes while he was talking on his cell phone.
Maybe thats for another thread.
Just posted to some who may fall for this Emirates bank credit card scam.
Worked for Saudia for many years, never once did Saudia try to cheat me on my end of service allowances or even the banks there.
And one would think it is opposite.
UAE not so modern as some may think.
