My experience of having a debt in Israel has been very serious and I had made a big mistake by ignoring the situation. Debts with banks and companies will never just ‘go-away’. Face the situation immediately and know that there are professionals out there to help. The Voleh organisation has been a lifeline for me for legal advice and to help me negotiate a settlement to reduce my debts here in Israel. This has taken some time, but has enabled me to finally pay and exit the country. Most new Olim to Israel will struggle with debt, don’t be ashamed that this has happened, you’re not alone and seek immediate professional advice.
