in Loans
i recently appllied 4 2000 loan with this company, they asked 4 a upfront fee of 59 pound, i asked them if i was 100% going 2 get a loan and they said yes and that it is illegal 2 take any money from me if i was not accepted. i went ahead and paid the fee,they sent me a letter saying i had been accepted and then recieved a application form 4 ralph marlon, i sent it of and they said they would b contacting me in 7 days, they didnt, i had 2 ring them, only 4 them 2 say ive been declined and was 2 get a refund from wentworth direct. i tried 2 do that by ringing the customer service line, i was on hold 4 a hour then got cut off, i rang the main number and they refused 2 give me a refund over the fone and was 2 write in. i am currently waiting 2 hear from them.
i would advised people noy 2 get a loan fo this company as they have 2 me, taken my money and now they are bein arkward about given me a refund.

Hi Lauren.
This is a common scam. You should eventually be able to get back most of your money. They are allowed to keep £5 as an admin fee.
Have you written to them asking for the money to be refunded?
In future do not pay money up front to any company for a loan.A smile enriches those who receive without making poorer those who giveor "It costs nowt to be nice"0 -
Too many 4's and 2's0
