What happens to your Emirates Islamic Accounts and Liabilities when you change or lose your job

End of Service Benefits

If you have a salary transfer account with Emirates Islamic, your employer will most likely transfer your End of Service Benefits (EOSB) to this account. If you have liabilities with the Bank in the form of a finance or credit card, access to your EOSB will be restricted until you provide us with your new employment details or your liabilities are cleared.

The Bank may take the following actions:

If you have a credit card:

  • Your credit card will be temporarily blocked
  • Your EOSB amount will be on hold if you are delinquent in any of Emirates Islamic´s liabilities

If you have a finance:

  • Your outstanding finance amount will be blocked from your EOSB. If the outstanding finance amount is higher than your EOSB, the EOSB amount will be blocked in full
  • Your Home Finance outstanding will not be considered blocked unless you are delinquent in any of Emirates Islamic´s liabilities

Overdue payments or delinquency:

  • The Bank may debit all overdue payments from your EOSB or block any outstanding amounts you owe to the Bank in your account

Releasing your End of Service Benefits

You can release the hold on your EOSB by:

  1. Updating us with your new employment details, or
  2. Clearing your liabilities. You can clear your liabilities by visiting your nearest Emirates Islamic branch with your Emirates ID or passport for identification, and one of our representatives will be happy to help you.
Note:

If you have a personal finance with Emirates Islamic, your new salary must be transferred to us. Simply provide your new employer with your account details along with a new salary transfer letter so that they can continue to transfer your salary to us.
