    I have had an email asking for me to upload a picture of my bank card with the card number removed and of my driving licence. I am a little bit worried about doing this - I am planning to remove my date of birth and address from my driving licence. Is this ok to do, is it normal to do this as I am worried about my details being copied and used by another party or to try and gain access illegally to my bank.


    Who was the email from ?
  • I don’t really want to ring the number on the email as if the email
    Is a scam the telephone number will be as well.
  • i know that now unfortunately.

    Urgh!


    Just got an email from the Wonga Claims team :
    Wonga wrote:
    The Joint Administrators are now in a position to declare a first and final dividend of 4.3p in the £.

    So my £80 claim is not worth only £3.50

    Just had my email from Wonga's administrators. Not good news if you were hoping for a reasonable payout. Not even close to the 10% that I have seen quoted on some websites.

    "The Joint Administrators are now in a position to declare a first and final dividend of 4.3p in the £.

    You will receive a payment of £16.79. Your payment represents 4.3p in the £ on your agreed claim value of £389.40"

    Probably cost the administrators more that that just to reach that conclusion. 🙄
    January Grocery Challenge 2016 = £119.41/£250.00
    Weekly Savings Challenge 2016 = £364.31/£1378.00 26.44%
    Virtual Sealed Pot Challenge 2016 #9 = £13.88/£500 2.34%
    £2 Savers Club 2016 #26 = £140/£500 28%
    1% challenge 2016 = £100 Total saved £100/£10,000 1%
  • Ugh my original claim would have been over £600 and i’m getting £26.76
  • £1248.47 agreed claim value. £53.82.
    I thought I might get 10% but that's not much. I spent years living in wonga loans.
  • 500 odd pound expected back getting 24 pound
  • I also got my email, 4.3p in the £, meaning I get £138.63 from a claim of £3215.58.

    Pretty rubbish but I guess better than nothing.

    Payment within 4 weeks apparently. Here's hoping...
