So i contact the call centre and they give me a collection companies nr. I call them and they say that they have nothing outstanding on record and that I need to request piad up letters from them for what they have. So I call RCS call centre again to explain and they put me Colelction. I talk to Collections and they put me to Card. They say that this was handed over on 14 February yet the collection agency has no record. Then I ask for a statement to prove when and where this comes from. Then I get told that once they hand this over they can not access the information. No some lady from the leagal department will phone me back. Still waiting. Collection company cant help, so now I am between a rock and a hard place. And my credit record just gets worce by the day... Do I now have to spend money with my attorney to get information from them??? CAN SOMEONE PLEASE ASSIST ME!!!<hr>]]>

      <title>Creditworx (S&amp;V) - Billing / Accounts - Interest being charged</title>
      <description>
<![CDATA[On January 2008 i got a call from a lady representing Creditworx saying i owe ABSA Brokers R50000 for commission that was paid to me whilst employed by them. From that year i have been paying R500 a month without any default. I have all the proof of payments because i was using Internet Banking. Last month i called to enquire how much my balance is. to my shock the gentleman who assisted me said i still owe R50000 because R500 only covers the interest. My question is interst for what? I never took a loan. This is a debt that my previous company never even followed up with me. how am i being charged interest? from that call they said i owe R50000 and i must pay it off monthly. why is my capital not decreasing? am i gonna pay for this account for the rest of my life? They should say i owe so much and if i pay so much then it will take so long to complete the debt. i am so furious at this and i will definitely follow up with the Ombudsman because ABSA brokers is regulated by such and i will also follow up with the Credit Regulator to find out the legality of the situation.<hr>]]>

      <description>
<![CDATA[<b>Initial Report</b><br>So I explained in a very calm<br> manner to Victoria how frustrated I am having to struggle 6 months to<br> sort out my account that have been paid in the first place but rcs<br> never received my money because apparently my hard earned money is<br> still in Foschini's bank account. Anyway I asked Victoria if she could<br> assist me in getting this matter sorted out as this is now become very<br> expensive to me having to phone RCS don't know how many times a day<br> trying to sort out my account. Getting frustrated with people working<br> for RCS manly client care agents promise to call back and to give feed<br> back and they never do. So Victoria promised to take it upon herself<br> to help me sort out my account. Yet she did exactly what the client<br> care center did call you once give you feed back once with out the<br> problem being solved then ignore your phone calls ignore your message<br> left at switch board to call back ignore your emails asking for<br> updates. Now I ask you what type of a Micky Mouse company do you guys<br> run to treat your loyal clients this way. To me this is absolutely<br> unexceptionable having to take RCS 6 months to sort out my account in<br> witch time my account is still not sorted out. <br> <br><br><b>Company Response</b><br><img height="16" align="left" src="http://www.hellopeter.com/images/icons/arrow.png"> <u>24th May 2012, 2:23pm</u><br><br>Hello tazzmania,<br />

      <title>Transunion Credit Bureau - Incorrect Information Captured - TransUnion has incorrect info &amp; lost a Bond App</title>
      <description>
<![CDATA[I recently applied for a bond as I wanted to purchase a town house in Brentwood Park. Went through the normal channels to apply to ABSA, Standard & FNB. I was rejected due to been a bad/late payer. I was told by TransUnion it was Woolworths, Truworths, Markham, Edgars & Nedbank who advised them of this. I have lodge a dispute with TransUnion (TU20120509-000130-01). Also approached the different companies questioning my payment history & strange to find out that my Truworths account is paid up, Markham & Edgars accounts are on track with 2 months to go till they are paid up as well as Woolies. All these accounts are normally done by EFT end of each month. Nedbank was a problem (from FNB account swop from Nedbank to FNB & their cock-up with debit orders & refuse to admit to it been their mistake & changing it). So where does TransUnion get this info from to let other institutions know that one isn't credit worthy as it is incorrect. Why don"t you just hold a gun to our heads...and must wait 21 days for the dispute to be looked at... <hr>]]>

      <title>Idp Tracing Services - Billing / Accounts - Incompetence with a splash of bad attitude</title>
      <description>
<![CDATA[On the 21/05/2012 my mother received a call from TRACE regarding her OLD MUTUAL FINANCE account that was handed over to them for collection. She was informed that a summons was issued and threatend by TRACE(Audrey) that if payment was not made a warrant of arrest will be issued and her belongings reposessed. My mother fell ill last year and was diagnosed with BROCA'S APHASIA( loss or impairment of the power to use or comprehend words) hence i've been assisting with her account payments. Payments were made into the quoted account details provided by TRACE themselves, only for me to discover the reference number provided by TRACE was INCORRECT and belonged to a Mrs S. Eagles. The attitude and the way my call was handled from TRACE(Audrey) was UNACCEPTABLE, as i was not the one at fault but they were. Their incompetence led to a summons being issued due to non payment. WTF...When enquiring at OLD MUTUAL and explaining the situation(no surprise to them), i am not the 1st client this has happened to. If it wasnt for the summons i would never have picked up the fact that i've been paying someone elses account!!! I have yet to receive an apology for their negligence and incompetence!!<hr>]]>

      <title>Rennies Foreign Exchange Bidvest Bank - Feedback / Response - No International service on +27 11 407 3103</title>
      <description>
<![CDATA[I loaded a pre-paid $ credit card with Bidvest Bank. Due to a complication, I received an email stating my account had been suspended.  I contacted them on the above listed international number, only to be told the person who was dealing with the issue was not in the office. I requested speaking to a Manager and was told there was no Manager.<br> <br> I asked to leave my number on the system and ask they call me when they arrived to work the following day. This was Lebo.  The following day no-one bothered to call. I called back the following day and, once again, was given the exact same excuse!  Once again, I explained this was my only means of funds and was assured someone would call me. The call never transpired!<br> <br> Day 3, I called 4 times, twice I was put through to an extension which said "this mailbox is full" and cut off. I eventually got through to the operator of my first call, and after creating a massive stink, she called a department to have my call answered.<br> <br> I explained the dire situation I found myself in, and was connected to Mr Admire Chitengu. As per all of them, he apologized, and explained he as yet could still not supply me with the necessary information. WTF stranded!  <hr>]]>

<br />
Thank you for your report of even date. Further to your comments, we wish to re-iterate that Vericred did not hand you over, but that your account was handed over to Vericred by our client Foschini. In the circumstances, Foschini blacklisted you when the account was handed over. Vericred collected the outstanding monies upon instructions received from our client, and supplied the Clearance Letter (paid up letter) advising that the account is settled. You thus need to take the said letter to Foschini to update your credit record accordingly, as they have listed you.<br />
<br />
Please be guided accordingly, and do not hesitate to ask should you have any further questions in this regard.<br />
<br />
Kind regards,<br />

      <title>Credit Salvage Corporation SA - Billing / Accounts - No Refund :-(</title>
      <description>
<![CDATA[Five months ago i came across a website of credit salvage, i enquired about them helping me. With this someone contacted me and was very keen in helping me. I filled in the forms and sent it off however with this i was assisted by another company and i called Credit salvage telling them to cancel my application. The following month they however still deducted R700 from my bank account. When i contacted them to query this they said they will check into it and refund me. Four moths later and i am still waiting for my funds, and i now if i send emails querying this i get no feedback. I am utterly disappointed that they were so quick to take my money after i asked them to cancel my application and now i have no idea if i am ever going to get my funds back.Unfortunately i cannot let R700 go as i am studying and need all the funds i can get, i hope someone can as-sit me with this matter as i cannot wait much longer.<hr>]]>
