ABSA vehicle *****

ABSA approved a ********** vehicle financing loan even after they contacted me, to which I indicated it being ********** and insisting they not go ahead. I now cannot even get a response from the bank regarding closing this loan account and them clearing my name as it's affecting my credit score adversely. I have followed up for the past 2 months to which no conclusion or relevant response is forthcoming.

Reviewer Update
It's now been more than two years after the incident and the *****ulent account opened in my name is still appearing on my credit report with Experian. I recently tried to remove it and lodged a dispute with Experian (it was cleared with another credit checking entity) but feedback received from Experian as communicated by ABSA is that I am the one who opened the account. This matter was resolved by ABSA back when I initially lodged the complaint so I do not understand why ABSA haven't sorted this out with all credit check entities. I need this issue resolved as it's affecting my credit record and my ability to obtain credit!!!.
