    Prevented from leaving the country?

    I know about being stopped at the airport for leaving if you have got outstanding fines, but, can you be prevented from leaving the country if you owe visa cards or other money or things????

    Not to the best of my knowledge, assuming their is no court order, warrant for your arrest, etc.

    But splitting when you owe people money is pretty bad. And getting a bad credit record from someone like Visa could follow you worldwide.

    true....but first you'd have to give a fuck! I pay for everyting in cash these days so ....all I was worried about was being stopped from coming back to work...

    You do know Visa and Mastercard are international companies, dontcha? If you leave without paying the chance of getting another card ever is pretty slim, I would suspect (depends where you go, maybe).

    Easier to just make an arrangement to pay - even at a minimal amount each week.Besides, it's the right thing to do. Theft isn't cool.

    EDIT: Just read p.dath's comment, sorry for repeat. But hey it's good advice!

    I dont owe visa - just used that as an example! just trying to clarify what they can stop you for. eg if you had a civil debt or dispute over a civil debt, can they stop you leaving the country?

    Only if there is a warrant out for your arrest..... but everyone is giving you the right advise, make arrangements to pay, you won't regret it.

    You might see it differently if someone owed you the money.

    Not illegal, but they will chase you.
    Wife had this, we went to Aus - she failed to pay some crap $50 thing (study thing).
    It chased us to aus within 6 months. I paid before it went baycorp

    No. You peasants legitimately owed money aren't nearly as important as the Government 'owed' fine for you exceeding 100km/h, don't you know?
    If it wasn't for a concise set of rules, we might have to resort to common sense!

    Thats a holiday - not a bail.

    @ OP - dosnt matter who you owe money to. Doing a runner is a gutless thing to do. Man up and pay your bills. At the very least a fucked credit history will screw you years down the track when you need it most.
