I want to advise everyone to stay away from this company as I do not think anyone should have to go through the stress and upset I am currently experiencing with them now! I took out a 4 year loan with in 2014, I paid the agreed amount every month without fail. My contract was finished in 2018 and my final payment was made. I then moved the later received a letter from a debt collection company (Lowell) stating I was still owing £124! This was incorrect! I gathered all my bank statements and I had actually over paid! After years being messed around trying to contact someone who would help me clear my name I eventually spoke to someone in 2020 (please note the time scale here!) Who confirmed the debt had been reported wrongly and it would be corrected and I would receive confirmation of this in writing and a manager would phone me directly. Obviously this NEVER materialised, I phoned again in Febuary and was advised once again confirmed this was the case even though my credit score was still showing the same problem. I was told it would be updated and corrected at the end of Feb, once again surprise surprise this never happened. I called on the 18th of March and was told by Esme this should have been sorted and she would chase it up - telling me AGAIN I was not a fault! I phoned today as I had still not received the call from a manager or a written confirmation only to be told by Zigara my file would not be updated and the debt was correct WHICH IT IS NOT! WHAT AM I MEANT TO DO NOW! I have all the evidence to prove I am the victim here although Ikano seems to have no intention of admitting and correcting this! I only write this here today as a last resort as this problem is now affecting my life as I cannot get a mortgage because of Ikanos incompetence! Ikano get this sorted!!! I am waiting on a severe apology, and believe I should be refunded the money I have had to pay out checking to see if you had actually done your job which you did not!!! Ansolute sham of a company DO NOT GO NEAR THEM WITH A BARGE POLE! Reviewed on: 23rd March 2021
