***** looked away by WONGA

Im guttered with how wonga dealt with my case. Upon knowing that i have a loan with them that I did not even ask for i called them to advise them im a victim of ID theft, they in turn told me that they have all my details that are according to them are correct. I even told them that the ABSA account used was never mine. I earlier this year got a letter from absa that all the accounts in my name there are indeed *****ulently opened. WONGA sold the account to RECOVAX that called me and i iaslo advised them that this was ***** incident and that i have advised WONGA they too wanted to give all sorts of dicounts and settlement to make it go away. I refused all.

I keep calling WONGA all their call center option dont have an option to speak to consultant or agent. only option 4 (INSURANCE) answered and her too could not assist and opted to transfer me to customer care, i asked the lady if there was a direct number to them as i tried all options to reach them. she advised that *** is the only number i can use, (the most useless call center number ever).

What pains me most is that my Credit record is *****ed because of this wonga i never met nor known before this *****ulent incident.
