MAKRO CREDIT - LOOKS GOOD BUT DONT EAT IT!

<p>Once upon a time in my life I did something really stupid....<br /><br />I bought something on credit.... A laptop... Stupid...<br /><br />The worst part was using Makro as my partner in crime.<br /><br />When I initially signed up for Makro credit, they had a 12 month repayment plan... they will deny this and tell me I don't know what i'm talking about etc etc...<br /><br />It was there in plain sight. Was the reason i jumped on board, 12 months, man awesome!!!<br /><br />So I got in my car and raced down to Makro like a rabid dog, foaming at the mouth, legs all twitchy and bought a laptop - when I was asked what repayment plan I wanted I told the woman 12 months - i saw her key in 12 months!!!!!!<br /><br />No really I did, I don't forget the small details like that...<br /><br />Let me tell you it's now coming close to 24 months, it might be 24 months already, hell it's been dragging on I have no idea anymore - I just had a look at my statement, you see i've contacted them before and because it's like dealing with Telkom you are faced with a money hungry corporate, the people on the other end do not care about you or your problems...so in essence credit is like giving people permission to take you from behind...because no one cares in this country and there is little we can do about it. Cash is king people.<br /><br />I am now looking at my current balance - at the current rate at which they are debiting my account I will be looking at roughly another 11 months????????????<br /><br />Can someone at Makro, preferrably somebody that would like to help, please tell me how the **** it has gone on for so long???</p> <p>...and don't tell me you have never offered repayments at 12 months, that is absolute *******...</p>
