Unhappy client with CONSUMERFRIEND

I app**** for credit on the 11 November 2023 with CONSUMER FRIEND been the go in-between checking on consumers credit history.I was subsequently told I'm under debt review which I'm not, and been denied and embarrassed. The strange thing is I app**** already in April 2023 where I got the credit,where im making regular monthly payments.This company is so *********** and should be s****ped from working with the NCR because their records are faulty and incorrect.

Reviewer Update
As per dispute filed with ConsumerFriend they came back to me.However I received the paid up letter which I received and submitted to them.The aforesaid paid up letter was issued in 2016 ,and ConsumerFriend themselves issued the actual paidup letter to me.Now after 6 years they flag me,and now they requesting from Octogen my debt review company to issue me a Form 19 clearance certificate which is delaying and causing me inconvenience and trouble. Why am I all of a sudden been flagged when 6 month ago I purchased goods without any problems and queries

Good day Garth,

Thank you for this message.

Please note as explained previously we are in receipt of "Form 19 - Clearance Certificate" that was issued to you by Octogen. 
We unfortunately were unable to process the clearance certificate and update our system in respect of one of the Woolworths Accounts not being listed on the clearance certificate.
As per our client mandate with Woolworths, it is mandatory that all accounts within debt review be listed on the clearance certificate.

In light of the above, we have reached out to Octogen for an amended "Clearance Certificate" in this regard.
We have not received a response from Octogen however will reach out to their office once again.

We advise feedback will be provided to you with respect to progress on the matter.

Kind Regards
