Stupid, rude and unmannered…

These people are full of nonsense. They are rude and abrupt. I had an account with woolworths 8 years ago and I have not heard or seen any statements for the past 6 years. I have been in and out of prison due to a drug problem. Now all of the sudden I get calls from them on a weekly basis with threats. I have asked them to please give me a judgement letter but they refuse to. I have told them that I am not working at the moment and will make arrangemets next year and 10min after that I get another message that I must pay R1238.65 immediately to avoid legal action. These people are stupid rude and unmannered they do not seem to understand anything.

Still phoning…

HI THERE!!!

This is the second time I e-mail you for some advise for getting MBD to stop phoning me  and sms me for unnecessary information and reminders that I must pay them.

They phoned me again today and I told the lady in a rather crude way not to phone me which was probably not the right thing to do.

Each month I pay them on date but they keep phoning & sms’ing me,charging me for it.How can anyone get out of debt if they keep loading your account such tactict’s?

 

If you can assist me with any advise or help me just to get them stopping their tacticts I would be gratefull.If their is any fees I payable I would gladly pay it.

Further more i requested a breakdown of the account,which I got but in a unknown format which I can’t open on my pc.I contacted them still no response.

 

Can you please help me

Virgin Active & MBD in cahoots

Hi! I would also like to make it know to the public my story …

I opened a two year contract with Virgin Active in Athlone Gatesville. One day I received a call from Virgin Active themselves to inform me that I have missed a months payment and the very next day I went and paid them in cash and together I also closed off the account which was like R300 or so (year 2005). The staff member assured me that all was in order…!

 

Three months down the line I get a call from MBD Attorneys saying that I owe them R700 – of which I Refused to pay as I have settled it with Virgin. How frustrating. I ignored that call as I knew it was a mistake in their side and asked them to sort it out with Virgin Active.

The Following month they called me again and the amount due was more….every time they called they would charge more…how ridiculous! After that my wife ended her gym contract -I could not understand how they this immoral system works between Virgin Active and MBD as they are both to blame for the unorganized system in which they work! Well all in all, been paying them off for the past 3 year which meant I was blatantly screwed by Virgin active and MBD! Its now 2008 and I am almost done paying them thousands of rands.

If I could just shout out to the South Africa and the World that Virgin Active and MBD Attorney are Immoral and will rip u from your life! Don’t Do it!

Thanks

MBD AND VIRGIN ACTIVE VICTIM

I’m paying Mbd atorneys each month the agreed amount,i’m not in arears but they are constantly phoning me asking if i will pay on the 26th of the month.I told the person to stop phoning me because they  bill me each time for it.I asked for a breakdown of my account they e-mailed it to me but I can’t open it.So i e-mailed them back asking to send it in another format.STILL WAITING.I realy don’t know what to do next.so if you can assist me it would be great.

Will my credit record be affected?

Hi All. I am so shocked to see that there are so many people harassed by MBD Attorneys! They have been phoning and smsing me for the past 2 years. Here is the story: I had a contract with Virgin Active when I was 19. After a year I cancelled the contract because I went overseas. I’m 28 years old now, and since about 2 years ago, they started calling me to settle my account. The amount is R1804.55!! 6 Months ago they phoned me for the last time. I asked them to send me the original documents via email and fax, with a complete detailed breakdown of all the costs. Today I still don’t have it. Friday 19 September 2008 I received a sms saying the following: You recently received our letter of demand regarding your VIRGIN ACTIVE A/c. Please make a payment by month end. A/c 9A2812300. Balance R1804.55. What letter? I didn’t receive any letters! I don’t know what to do anymore except to ignore them, but what about my credit record? Will this be affected? Please help. Q
