Disregard for Customers

It’s unfortunate there’s no negative rating but a brand cannot have the same issue and complaints from majority of their customers and they don’t rectify it. It’s utter disrespect and disregard of their customers and business processes. You have an option for customers to pay manually but your system does not stop interest when your customer pay you early. You do not answer phones and respond to emails. You do not give clarity on your Facebook messages when clients reach out! Your brand and business is to purely collect money. Not customer centric at all. I’ve paid off your loan and you have not closed the account. Your debit orders go off regardless of manual payment ruining your customers credit score. It’s embarrassing. Can you update your accounting system close my account!

Thank-you for confirming your details 

We have received your manual payment of R4461.30. Please note that as communicated on our website we are not able to stop an upcoming debit order collection if you make a manual payment before your due date.

Your payment was allocated and went towards the outstanding balance on your loan.
You still have a balance of R186.24 remaining. This will be collected next month on the 25th of May 
Unfortunately, we will not be able to close the account yet as the payment you made was not enough to settle the account

Thanks

Dear Wonga, I paid that R4461.30 in March and you’ve debited now end of April R2673.30. My loan term was R2673.30 for 4 months. Where does the extra R186 come from. You did not allocate in time and therefore interest accumulated. Please can you explain the interest.

HI Nomthandazo 

When we collected your payment of R2673.36 on the 25th of April, the balance on your loan was R2790.60

This payment was not enough to settle your balance at that time. 
We could not collect the extra amount because we will never collect an instalment more than what we have on your loan agreement. 

Your loan is still in term, so you have the option to wait us for us to collect the remaining small balance on your due date or if you would like to pay early use the payment options available on our website.

Kind Regards 
The Wonga Team
