But even phone bills can get you into trouble if the debt collector was persistent enough

Re: RE: Re: Re- entry to Singapore with unpaid phone bills
Actually it needs to be a significant amount of debt. For sure people with > $10,000 in phone and CC bills will find issues or that they have been declared bankrupt but in the OP's case his file has probably been sold to a collection agent who will find him and negotiate a payment at some point in some country.ecureilx wrote:+1the lynx wrote:"It is not about the money.

I not lawyer/teacher/CPA.
You've been arrested? Law Society of Singapore can provide referrals.
You want an International School job? School website or http://www.ISS.edu
Your rugrat needs a School? Avoid for profit schools
You need Tax advice? Ask a CPA
You ran away without doing NS? Shame on you!

Re: Re- entry to Singapore with unpaid phone bills
I think it depends on whether or not they bankrupted you. If I understand correctly, they can impound your passport if you're bankrupt, or that could be for locals only. Anyway, if they did that then your debt and your passport will be linked with the resulting consequences for immigration exit/entry.

Master Bates,
Any particular reason you are responding to threads that are 5 years old? Other than being a troll or a scammer/spammer/advertiser looking to solicit here?
