Wonga - Accepting Under 18 application

Hammertime92

Does anyone know if Wonga or any such loan company would report an applicant for fraud after accepting their application despite the applicant being under 18 and had given the wrong date of birth?
My belief is they wouldn't as there would be too much bad publicity for them not doing the credit check correctly.
If anyone has had first hand experience of this I would be grateful for any information.

Hi, my son got a wonga loan when he was 16, yes entered false dob, yes he should know better etc etc. They wrote it off and blamed a 3rd party credit info provider. They did not handle to complaint well and did some other not good stuff so reported to OFT and FOS.

Thanks LR1
Do you know if they reported him for fraud or not or just let the situation drop. Also do you know if they still contact him via email/letter asking of he wants more loans?
