R8500 repayment every month, now declined

For the past 2 and a half years I have been using Wonga, repaying every month and never missing.<br> <br> Last month they gladly took R8830 of mine, and now when I need to lend again, sorry declined.<br> <br> I contacted the service desk and all I get is a sorry try again. Sorry try again wont pay for the things i need to pay for with the 8000 you wont give me all of a sudden but gladly took out my bank account for the last two years.<br> <br> I want this resovled!!!!!

Hello H_Potgieter,

Dear Hendrik,
Thanks for your message. The recent amendments to the National Credit Act has tightened the lending criteria for loan applications, and we now have a more stringent affordability assessment for customers.
The loan application system picks up a range of affordability criteria ranging from personal and household expenses, transport costs, mortgage or rent, outstanding debt etc.
We are more than happy to send you a copy of your bureau file as a courtesy, to weigh up your loan affordability.
Look forward to hearing from you.

Kind regards,
Priscilla Urquhart (Head of Communications, Wonga SA)
