I have a life thanks, oddly enough a very good one. Right here in Dubai. Is that your logical and well mannered response?

Well isn't that kind of my point. THIS THREAD isn't about the contract or anything other than the bond. If you want to talk about the contractual aspects then start a thread on that very subject and I will happily contribute if I feel I can add any value or if I feel I may learn something from anyone out there with a more persuasive, coherent or logical argument.
As I fear you are after my view on contracts in general (because I am good like that) it is really simple I have already stated in the last few posts.
A contract is a contract. If someone is offered specific accommodation in their contract and that changes without mutual agreement then one of two states occur. Either party has inalienable right to consider if the breach is fundamental. If they consider it so and most importantly ACT as so they can then take whatever action they deem remedies the breach and treat the contract as repudiated.
If however EITHER party acquiesces and continues to act as if the breach was not fundamental then life is simple. By accepting the change and continuing to act as if a contract is still binding you are deemed to have accepted the change and cannot even under law of precedence ruled states (where it exists in law i.e NOT HERE as it is a code not a statue) claim that you have been hard done by. i.e the remedy in law cannot be restitution to the original envisaged state as you have not acted as if the contract was breached.
So it is simple either refuse to come until you have sufficient trust that you will get what you were promised on your side of the contract. Or don't come. That is that simple. If you want to go down the route of breach of contract etc. Then you will waste a lot of time, likely get nowhere and certainly not work here.
Nothing stops people taking the allowance and finding their own accommodation. 300,000 other expats seem to manage!
If however you sit there and call me names or just belittle what I say without reason or post antithetical rhetoric with no substance to your argument then I will just think that either you do not have the intellectual horsepower to produce a response or are socially incapable or understanding that you are not the only person on the planet with a viewpoint.
Please more interjections such as "off with you", "get a life" as they kind of prove my point.
