In general, they were very patient. Unfortunately, the person I spoke to gave me some wrong information. This was not a big problem though and it was soon rectified.

Fraud query

Fraud query. On Saturday 13 July I foolishly fell victim to scammers.Fortunately I realised my stupidity and phoned the bank within minutes of ending my transaction with the scammers,and a block was placed on them further accessing my card. I suggested at the time cancelling my card and aquiring a new one and was advised against this for reasons I do not fully understand. The upshot being when I went to use my card today Wedesday 17th July I too was blocked.

Easy application

Easy application, simple to understand. The loan was paid into my account just a few minutes after application was approved. The interest rate was great compared to other lenders.
