"Help Needed"
Hello everyone,
First of all this is in no ways (spam) this is a call to everyone that is a memeber of this site for help.
I am a american who has been coaching basketball here in qatar for 3 years now. I have been here for the last 7 months without work and unable to leave because of a bank loan i took out to help my mother fight cancer before she died.
Now i have been put on a blacklist for traveling and unable to leave the country. I have gone days without eating trying to save any and everything to solve this problem. f anybody is willing to help me so that i can get home and obtain future employment it will be greatly appreciated.
Thank You and God's blessings

why dont u go to American ...why dont u go to American embassy in doha and they help you out?...
I dont live with example..Reather I prefer to be an example!
ballinkg said
Been there!!! ...that was my first stop to solving my problem but they are unable to help.
China Syndrome said
Wow, what a nightmare .................... ...Kenny, are you actually saying that, as an American, the American Embassy will sit by and watch one of it's citzens starve to death rather than assist with repatriation?
You mention 'blacklist', who exactly is stopping you from leaving, your ex employer, the courts?
goaboy said
hey dude you american ...get to the us base here and just leave they cant even touch you.
RED_POPE said
I don't buy your story dude. You are ghosting. ...You actually want us to believe your sad story?
I don't buy it, I don't sense an emergency on your behalf.
Except someone trying his best, in taking my money.
I hope that no one will fall, for this guy story.

I expected cynical peoplelike you to respond but im going to stoop to your level and fight back with ignorance.yes i expect people to believe my story because for 1 i have no need to try and con someone for help and 2 i have never taken a dime or handout from another human being my entire life.
I have been through every avenue to try and resolve the problem myself and have not been able to this is the reason AND ONLY REASON why i have come to a forum and toldmy story.So before you judge someone that you have no idea of who they are maybe you should ask them a question first and then form a reputable opinion..
I invite you to ask me anything you want or to even meet me.

I have tried numerous times to reach out to him but because he is in the background and never came to the club it was almost impossible to reach him taken that no one would give me his mobile number. All i was able to do was leave notes for him at the reception of the club and hope that they were passed on to him some how.
I am out of work because i was released because my team was not doing well this season.
Alexa said
Ah, yes, to release the ...Ah, yes, to release the coach if the team does not do well enough is rather common......now, I do not want to pry....but did you not take into consideration this could happen to you? As i said it is rather common.
It will be quite difficult to get money from people that do not know you, after all, you are not one of the 'mistreated expatriates", you are American. I have to say, I do not have much hope.....do you not have anybody at home who would be able to help you?
And how much money are we talking here?

help... ...SOrry to hear about you. I wanted to tell you some thing. If you take a loan from a bank, that loan is already insured. If you remember the time you took loan they would have deducted some money or you would have paid some that is the insurance actually. Even you go back to america and never come back the bank never loses a dime. Infact they recover it by insurance. So be cool and dont think that you are black listed coz of loan.
Secondly the only thing you can do is find some job to get setteled first. And you will find lot of good people in QL to help you get one.
I really felt very sorry to know about your situation.
Good luck finding a good job.

You should be careful with your words. Especially when saying that someone should commit suicide.

There are people in this world who just open their mouths so they can hear themselves speak and maybe your one of them and if that is so to bad for you.

Thanks for the comment but as we both see people read what they want to read even if it isnt what is stated. ignorance is bliss and as i see there are people who find more comfort in putting someone down and taking joy in another's misfortune rather than giving a helping hand.

It appears that .............. ...this guy has given out enough information now for anybody to verify if they want to check him out. If you have doubts, I suggest that's what you should do. He has come back to fight his corner, I for one will give him the benefit of the doubt.
He is not asking for any hand outs (cash), he seems to proud for that.
So lets give him a break and see what we can do.
Unfortunately I am of little help, not being an American, so cannot advise there, and not in a position to give anybody a job.
ballinkg ............ sorry you have been treated like this in what is a so called 'civilised' society (it is not as you have found out!!!)
Assume you took Dracs offer up and contacted him?
Anybody else got any job leads?

There will be ignorance in any civilized situation that we encounter in today's world. I expected to recieve some negativity when i put my story up here so i was ready for it. Drac and I have been in contact and he is gonna help as much as he can with my appreciation.
Like i said to 1 of the other people who wrote to me i pray that some of these people never find themselves in a situation where the help of other human beings is needed. I pray that the people that contact them in thir time of need treat them better.
Thank You

Anyhow, your story has no essence, no real pain and it has no backbone to fill my cup of mercy.
What a coincidence?

btw ballinkg how did u know ...this site (Qatarliving)?..You can't blame some of us here being skeptical about you, but one thing I know for sure about what you said:'have been put on a blacklist for traveling and unable to leave the country', because some banks really blacklisting for travel those who do not pay their loans.

Thank You and God's blessings
LOL. You never had any real questions, Just a motive.
1-Here is the strange part of your employment, you got laid off, after three years of employment, but you did not use the money you saved in the bank, or your last monetary entitlements of employment, to paid off the bank loan.
2- Yet you decided to stay in country for 7 more months without a job, spending your money, on who knows what.
3- Probably you got kick out RECENTLY, from the house by your girlfriend or boyfriend and know you are finding your self in big trouble and homeless.
4- I don't even think, that you are an American citizen, just some Bozo pretending to be one.
I hear St. Patrick was an Englishman!"

This will be my last reply to your ignorance because quite frankly it isnt worth the time or effort especially to deal with someone who is as unhappy with themselves as you are since it seems your only form of self compensation is this web page.
1.never was kicked out of my house by my WIFE not girlfriend.2 sorry but i am an American citizen but since i have seen some of your post it seems your hatred towards Americans is pretty pitiful.( must of been rejected by an American woman..lol or man for that matter)3.you are right my post didn't contain questions but a motive and that motive was to see if someone had any ideas how i could solve this problem (the most intellegent thing that has come out of your pathetic mouth so far). So dome a favor and keep your remarks to yourself especially when it comes to me since you have no significant or rather constructive advice..

Those homeless people lining-up for food stamps & clothes at some charitable outlets.So, that someone who pointed out you to QL might have an impression that QLers are generous people?Hope you can find some.
And you're still lucky, because the authority didn't put you behind bars because they really do that for some loan offenders.

US embassy services ...When i was overseas in 2003 an American business friend of mines, got mugged and his wallet stole, including all his baggage.
Completely strip down.
He did approach The US embassy, they loan him some money for food, rent for the hotel and bought him the plane ticket.
All he had to do, since it was a burglary, he had to get his police report, fill the paper work with an active bank account with proof of employment, the affidavit, signed by one of his family members as a co-signer for the monies loan to him.
He got re-issue a new passport and some cash for traveling for the amount of 2500.USD and left the country.
Know you tell me, If this guy can do the same.
How come you guys keep pondering he is American?
His justification does not match his clarification.
If he was living in this country, according to his statement for 7 months, at his own will. The Dumb Nuts, instead of paying his loan and trying to get the hell out of dodge, he choose to stay here.
I said again he is not American, just another Bozo pretending to be one.
Know that he has no money and facing eviction, know he wants help.
All he has to do, visit the consular services representative and explain his problem.
I hear St. Patrick was an Englishman!"

Your solutions are ...Your solutions are simple.
Go to the Ministry of Labour and see what they say
Go to the Human Rights Authority and see what they say.
Go to the BASE and they'll get you out of the country.
It's quite simple. You are required to pay back your loan (it's written in the contract by the way) to get out. You can't pay it back without a job. So that is when the authorities intervene to help out.
I don't understand how the American Embassy is refusing to help you.

just a suggestion folks, If ...just a suggestion folks, If your not sure about the fact regarding how the american embassy can or can not help their citizens you can always check on their web site.
Pope, your friend must have had other circumstances involved in his case other than being stripped of everything! Because it is almost unheard of that the will provide money loans to get ordinary citizen home even with a co signer. However, they do provide the assistance of getting a passport back if lost or stolen, they will provide advice only in legal matters, they will help you contact your family/friends and of course evacuation but very difficult to get any more help than this. Anyway if you folks have concerns check out some of the facts first.
I am always excited to go to sleep! In anticipation of the new experience I will find awaiting me.
tallg said
Agreed with kenyaqueen. ...Agreed with kenyaqueen. British embassy is the same. Main role is to represent Britain in the country it is in. They will help citizens with the basics like renewing passports, and will act when an evacuation order is received, but they are not obliged to help people out of trouble they get themselves into (financial or otherwise). Of course they take each case on it's merits and act accordingly, but it's a common misconception that they're there mainly to help its citizens.

Im not going to lie you, Im skeptical but... ...I would like to know,
1) what figures are we talking about? depends on that we can figure out if you can solve your problem working as waiter for some weeks or you will need to work as engineer in QP for years... it is not the same sort of help needed.
2) what are your priorities? goaboy told you can leave the country through the american base (I dont know if it is possible or not, anyway that's not the question) and you replied that you dont want that headache???? consequences??? If you can go out of the country (again - Im not sure, but if that chance is real), who cares about a non-paid loan in a local bank in Qatar??? do you think anybody is going to know if you have a debt in a little country in the Gulf?
So, is it your priority to go back home? (I assume your interest in coming back is low as far as you dont have any job here) or do you want to stay in the Gulf and thats why you are looking for a job to clear up your file in GCC?
I dont understand very much your position, your needs and your priorities.
Im not stating here that get debts and run away is a nice practice, but if you setup priorities in your life (you want to go back home), you have to assume the consequences (maybe they ban to come back, maybe they ban you in whole middle east... but at least, maybe you will be able to restore the debt later from US little by little...)

Not as bad as him but I know the feeling of being down and out in a country with no money. I travelled to morocco, rabat from casa blanca. I arrived on a friday nite. To my horror there were not banks open and none of the money changers would take a travelers check. I was totally out of cash. But thank Allah for the good people of rabat. I explained my situation to the clerk at the first hotel I stopped at and he gave me a room for the weekend. I did not ask him for anything more. And to my surprise he said here take this money you'll need to eat. I hadn't even thought about food at that point. his gesture was so welcomed and appreciated by me that I left him the biggest tip i have left anyone in my whole life.
Thank Allah he believed me or I would have been out in the heat for three whole days.

I'll let yoiu know my priorities. 1- my first priority is to get out of doha and get back to America as quick as possible.When replying to goaboy what i was saying was i dont wanna be trying to sneak out of the country and putting someone else in jeopardy by helping to sneak me out. And no it is not possible to go through the american base. I have no desire to come back to the GCC so clearing my name to come back here to work is not a issue. 2-As far as my need it is simple a waiter job would not get it done for me. I hope this clearified my position priority and need for you.
