Got 25 entires on my credit file from wonga. Rang up today claiming they mis-advertise the use of wonga loans and that it doesnt actually give you a positive on credit file if you have a few of them. This shows signs of financial distress.

Advisor went off to speak to manager and they have agreed that they will take off the other 24 and combine them meaning only one will now show on my credit report - which should be updated in next 30 days.

TOTAL OUTSTANDING DEBTS CURRENT BALANCES: Allied International - £3359.61, Blair Oliver & Scott - £1394.65, Lloyds TSB - £211.22, Lloyds TSB - £3125.80, Wescot - £966.25
ESTIMATED CCCS DEBT FREE DATE: April 2019. I aim to be debt-free by 2014 at the latest.
