Mhhhh can you tell us which bank this is? that is so wrong!

Am guessing it must be Barclays..


Nah, it is not Barclays. It's a local bank. I will shame it in due course.

Why are you protecting the bankd'oh! d'oh! d'oh! d'oh!



Good question, I always feel that these people who are not willing to name the offenders are hiding some information themselves.. If you've been wronged whats the bloody point in shaming them "in due course"!!!! Those who complain in the Money magazine in the Nation newspaper don't hide the name of the offenders and guess what, they get solutions... What if one of us works at that bank and could help? NKT... Sema who it is tujue who to avoid.. thats a bigger punishment than any legal suit. As long as you're telling the whole truth why would you be afraid?

Aii, now I have something to hide tena? Okay, avoid National Bank of Kenya. I just didn't want to prejudice the discussion early on, but it seems I achieved the opposite result.

I really feel for you.I also have a dormant Coop Bank savings account..hope I aint CRBed as a defaulter!
For your case...you may argue they didnt notify you.But the Bank is only required to show it made some "best effort" to inform you. It could be via your last known cell number,email or PO BOX. Now whether you got it is a different story!
I hope you are able to prove they didnt try!

About suing the bank, don't go there. You'll only make the lawyer happy. You cant win against big money and you can take that to the bank.

About the listing, it can happen because sometimes the file is too large and sometimes the bank clerk may not be able to check each case individually. Just go to the CRB pay them 2200/= and get a clearance certificate and that will be about it. All they want is clearance from the listing bank.

Not all fights are worth fighting.


You make it sound so easy.

Have always wondered if you can get a loan with a bank that you have a 'Good' account with, when you are listed with bureaus by another bank? and on getting delisted, Does the history continue haunting you forever?

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God..

Well, they say they are required by law to keep the information for 5 years after you clear with them. It's quite nasty, actually.

This hasn't been the case for me, and I have been with my current bank for almost 2 years now. But then again, maybe that's not how they judge if the relationship is "good".
