OLD DEBT

I am extremely disappointed with African Bank’s approach to handling old, prescribed debt. I have a debt that is over 10 years old, which by law should be prescribed. Despite this, they continue to pursue collection in a manner that makes it unnecessarily difficult to settle.

I have received multiple emails and SMS offers stating that I could settle the debt with a 70% discount. However, when I reached out to honor the offer, African Bank did not respond or assist in facilitating the payment. This clearly shows that they are not interested in actually recovering money – instead, they prefer to force consumers into a legal battle over prescription.

As someone willing to settle a fair amount, I expected at least some level of cooperation. Instead, African Bank's practices suggest they are more focused on pressuring consumers into paying prescribed debt rather than engaging in reasonable settlement discussions.

I will never use African Bank again, and I strongly advise others to be cautious when dealing with them. Their handling of old debt is *********, and they seem to have no interest in working with consumers who are trying to do the right thing.
