Closed account in 1999

Lawyers & Legal Counseling

In 1999, I paid my account in full, I then asked to close account. Lady said it is closed. Couple of months later my bag was, in which my card was, supposedly closed & I went back stating card is & asked whether account was closed, answer: YES.

Fast forward to 2012 & I start getting demands for over R4000 which I "owe" via my email & SMS. Complained that I am not MAHLAOLA in October 2012 & they leave me alone for about three months via sms only but STILL email me till Jan 16.

Suddenly, the interest of the person who is using my email address is what I owe.

Start getting SMS's again too, not emails. Phoned Edgars Legal Department and the lady says that there is a discrepancy & she put a note to show there is a problem with account AND I am unemployed.

Forward another month and suddenly it is interest from "what was not fully paid" & "do you have proof of payment"? And no note!!

How can a discrepancy become interest on an account fully paid in 1999???

I refuse to pay for something which was fully paid AND closed!!! I asked a couple of times if they are sure the account is closed & the answer was yes!!

Leave me ALONE!!!

I owe nothing & am unemployed!
