Poor communication

I bought a car on credit and I was finance by standard Bank in 2019, December last year was my last year to pay and I do arrange via SMS for paying Ballon Payment, my surprise on January they deducted a lump sum of R64000 some couple Rands for balloon payment but they decline because I was not have that amount on my account, I tried to call them and do arrange to repay Ballon but they said the account is closed. I go personally to standard bank and want to do arrangements for the payment but they told me that the account is closed, they promise telephonically for car ownership to be delivered. My surprise this morning they send an SMS and said they took this amount of Ballon and handed to Debt collectors, I'm a so disappointed and very much disturb.

I am very much disappointed and very much disturb, I paid for the car monthly and never skip any payment until I paid up the car, now you just decided to handover my name to Debt collection without any consultation. You never called me for arrangements or send messages, you just hand my name just like that, after I payed the amount of car for the past 6 years, you treat me as if, I was a bad payer, I am not happy at all, you betrayed me.
