Curahee 1st Gear February 14, 2012 Share February 14, 2012 I would like to know are there any ways to stop all the banks in spore to issue credit cards to some ppl? Why i ask this question is becoz my friend sis got a serious problem of abusive spending, she rack up over 90k of unpaid credit card bills within 2 yrs. First time is about 28k, second time 18k. End up my friend need to sell his house (they live together, co own the flat, parent no longer around) and use his saving to paid off the bill. He cancelled all her cards. However, she nv learn the lesson and her sis apply again and this time bills was sent to her office address so that my friend can't monitor her card usage and now the bill amt to 45k. Anyway i dunno how he gg to pay off this 45k, maybe sell house again. Hence i would like to know are there any ways to stop ppl from applying credit card juz like how we can stop family members from entering into casino. Thanks! ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watwheels Supersonic February 14, 2012 Share February 14, 2012 This is tough. The only way I can think of is to make her declare a bankrupt. She will be rejected by the banks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SimonTan 2nd Gear February 14, 2012 Share February 14, 2012 Your friend made the mistake of selling the house to pay the loan the first time. There was no bankruptcy or black listing of the person in the first time. This time must be firm....let the bank sue and made her bankrupt. Rather use the $45k to feed her slowly each month....can last for 45month or more. If not, after wasting $45k, she will still borrow and get into trouble. It's hard...but it need to be done this way....there are no other ways at all. Or perhaps, she was under gong tau by her BF into feeding money to BF please hire PI to check her BFs. Pick 1 bank and quarrel with them. Refuse to make payment. Let them blacklist her at Credit Bureau. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no way she will feel any pain unless she is hurt by it. Selling the house to clear the debt was a problem in the first place. Let the banks blacklist her. That would be a good thing for her to learn. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Windwaver Turbocharged February 14, 2012 Share February 14, 2012 Hence i would like to know are there any ways to stop ppl from applying credit card juz like how we can stop family members from entering into casino. Thanks! From my understanding there's no such regulation in place. Try calling Singapore Credit Bureau at 6565 6363, they might have experience with such cases before.

Credit bureau will not issue her another credit card until she clears her status. No point covering a bottomless pit. 2. As long as it is a hdb , she cannot force your friend to sell the house as the house doesn't belong to her 50-50. Tell the banks that your friend is not willing to sell. End of story. The banks won't stop issuing cards to your friend's sister as she is the best kind of people to give the cards to. Big spending and someone willing to foot the bill for her. My advice is just let her die and talk to the banks to declare her bankrupt. Once bankrupt then slowly talk to the bank for a repayment plan and slowly work it out. If settled nicely , her company won't even be known of her bankruptcy , probably only the HR dept and it can be kept hush hush. My 2 cents worth.

CH_CO 6th Gear February 14, 2012 Share February 14, 2012 (edited) Seriously this is the most common problem in the credit dept , anyhow throw one stone on someone below 35 and working , chances are you can find a credit card on them and chances are they are "rolling" on their debts despite their "branded" outlook. Anyway it is getting to be a social problem and it will continue to be a problem as this is a money making bussiness for the banks which in turn pays taxes to the governments , so will the garmen kill a cash cow by ensuring strict rules to control it? Just imagine 50k debt , 24% compounding , meaning every year you got to pay close 13k interest a year for nothing. Seriously this is common lah , just tell your friend to let the girl become bankrupt. I have being always advicing against the blantant use of loose credit but no one bothers. Just let her get her just deserves. Just a frank advice from someone which from the credit dept. Edited February 14, 2012 by CH_CO Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
