The money lender/collecting agent is threatening to call my employer. What do I do?
If the behaviour is violent or potentially a threat to you or your employer, report the loan shark/collecting agent to the Hong Kong Police (999).
Remember to keep calm and do not let insults or threats put you down.
Contact us immediately for a free confidential one-to-one financial counselling session to receive impartial financial advice. Our counsellors speak English, Tagalog or Bahasa Indonesia. We do not lend money. We only provide neutral advice. You do not have to deal with this on your own. Seek help as soon as possible.
If you feel you can, have an open conversation with your employer about your situation and let them know that you are facing harassment from loan shark. Understand that this might be worrying for them, especially if they were not aware of your financial difficulties beforehand. Reassure them that you are taking action to prevent the money lender/collecting agent from harassing you further. Should your employer have any questions, they can always contact Enrich to receive guidance.
