Limit increase

<p>The truworths group who always increase customer credit limits without their corcern or knowledge.</p> <div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px; background-color: #ffffff;"> </div> <div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px; background-color: #ffffff;">I had to two cards( truworths card) of which the other card was used by my sister, they increased the credit limit to R30 000 without my concern at all. They even changed my details on their system, i only discovered when i was applying for a home loan that truworths limit was above R30 000. i requested them to close the account but to this date they're still sending me massages stating that i have R30 000 to shop i van come shoping. They don't even send account statements.</div> <div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px; background-color: #ffffff;"> </div> <div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px; background-color: #ffffff;">Now i have an identity account with them, when ever i shop they ask if i need the credit increase then i decline it, in spite of me declining they still increase without my knowledge of salary advice.</div> <div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px; background-color: #ffffff;"> </div> <div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px; background-color: #ffffff;">I hereby request that you sort out the problem because anything that the customer request of them they do the opposite, and put us in more debt so that they can harass and blacklist us.</div> <div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px; background-color: #ffffff;"> </div>
