in Loans
i have been caught out by the scam that is known as brokers!!!. first it was unsec-loans.net and then wentworth tried it. the guy seemed genuine and gave me advice on how to get my money back from unsec-loans.net so i trusted him just a little. i made him say word for word (as he said the calls were recorded) that it wasnt a con and that i had been accepted for a loan and that he had found me a company. i gave him my card details and told him i would pay at a later date, he agreed to call on tues and take the payment. as the day went on i just stopped believing what the guy had said and decided to ring the company and after an hour and a half (which i think is deliberate to put people off) wait i managed to speak to someone who wasnt interested in what i had to say at all and nor did she care. she confirmed my suspicions and said i hadnt been accepted for a loan and the credit agreement would be getting sent out. i told her that i wasnt going to pay on and that i wanted the process stopping., the woman seemed like she didnt care and that began to annoy me which resulted in a few harsh words about the company. tues came and no call which made me assume that the guy had looked on the system and had seen that i'd called which ment the end in that. now money has gone from my account and i suspect wentworth, but for some reason i cant contact them with the number on their site, can anyone help and how do i get my money back??.

Clearly you need either to vent your frustration or get some help from some of the other Forum members.
Unfortunately your post is REALLY hard to understand, making it difficult to help you.
Take a deep breath and edit your post. Break up the big block of words with some spaces and ask a couple of clear questions. The people here are a friendly bunch if you approach them in a nice way...0 -

The positive news is that you haven't been called by the Indians (well not yet anyway). They will also promise you a loan absolutely guranteed and will also promise they aren't going to scam you.
All you will be required to do is pay your first Months payment up front via Western Union, followed by another "release fee" via Western Union, followed by a Tax Relief fee via Western Union and so on until you realise it is a scam.
I wish these people would play fair and admit to it being a scam as soon as they call.0 -
:rotfl: Now where's the fun in that!

It's Wednesday. :j0 -
ive just had wenworth on the phone and kept him talking and promising that i did indeed have a loan for long enough to google them! i ended up here and questioned him about the bad reviews given to them. he wouldn't answer my question and when i pressed him for further details about my 'loan' he said are you wasting my time and slammed the phone down on me!! so i would conclude not a professional company at all, but a scam, don't give them your money or card details, i didn't luckily. they aren't there to help you just rip you off, not at all fair not at all honest but annoyed me enough to write here in the hope that other people don't get conned by them.0
