No Correspondence in over 10 years
Backround: Bought a car, financed through ABSA. Car was written off. There was correspondende between The Ombudsman, ABSA employee (Aletta Botha) & Me. ABSA gave the total amount owed through to Ombudsman, but handed me over to their legal department for much higher amount. After a few unauthorized amount withdrawals from my account by them, I made a permanent payment arrangement of R200/month with a Mrs. Heunis. She said if I keep to this arrangement, they won't add interest. Ever since I have kept to it, but also changed banks. Occasionally someone would phone to ask if I am willing to increase the amount. Everytime I would explain the reason why I refuse to regarding the wrong original amount I was handed over for until someone actually sorts it out. I have never in the last over 10 years received any written correspondence from them. Last month on 16/10/2017, I get a call from EFG Attorneys stating that my debt has been handed over to them. I told them that I have not skipped a payment in the last 10 years. If this debt was handed over, what happens to my agreement with ABSA about no interest being added?
