Wentworth Direct Finance

Report them to the Information Commissioner immediately. I'm pretty sure that what they are doing is a criminal offence.As for paying up front, you clearly recognise this for the [problem] it is. Do you have the tech to record the calls? I think this would be useful as I think they are crossing the threshold into blatant criminality with this latest wheeze.

I cant record calls at the moment.

But all calls typed out by myself as I take them.

All contect numbers and names of the callers are recorded along with the call time.

Im getting good at making them wait whilst I type and search googlemaps for their address of the so called office.

I even ask them to confirm the address they are based as I have an address in surrey from an email.

So far all calls are coming from the manchester office.

 

I'm collecting all information I can and on friday sending to the relevant offices with express permission that all evidence can be used in any legal proceedings that they wish to under take.

I di the same with them realised it was a [problem] wrote to them on several occasions demanding a refund and got in touch with the financial ombudsman last week and today a cheque arrived for my refund ! Ralph Marlon and associates don't even exist as I sent a registered letter to their dress and it was returned with a polite letter telling me the company did not exist . Glad I have my cheque lets hope it clers and will keep you posted TE=thecableguy;3914166]Wentworth Direct Finance has changed tactic's once again.

There not asking for a brokerage fee anymore (not at least with the calls I've had.)

They are now saying they have my loan ready to transfer. I need to prove my pay-ability by paying the first month upfront. So far this has ranged from £102 - £120.

 

When I ask them to confirm and give me a 100% guarantee they say yes I have the loan but i need to pay the first month first.

When I say you want me to pay the first month upfront they're 'no your not paying it upfront your just paying the first month.'

 

I will keep you updated as I'm getting approx 15 calls aday from them (almost the same number only last 4 digits change and different company names. But same request all the time.)

 

Just an update: Had another phone call. This time from a female called Miss. Susan William.

Went throught the same stuff ... This time got told she would email me full confirmation.. Still waiting.

Just checked them out on the various registers and found out that in an email they sent me the Data Protection Register number is completely incorrect. There's not just a typo but the number they are registered with and the one they provided was different.

The CCA registration number is under renewal and has been since 2010.

You need to email the fsa/ consumer credit and they will go after them for you. Within ten days o me doing it I got my 69 pounds back I have now also sent all my paperwork to watchdog to have them outed ! If you need more info go onto the consumer services site or write to them with the reference number you have from wentworth

Have you reported them to Trading Standards and the OFT, if not you are wasting your time posting on this site.
