From the year 1994 to 2002 and went for my Senior High School from 2003 to 2006 at Apostle Safo School of Arts and Sciences, in which l studied General Arts.

    Am reducing the amount from 74 to 10 Because the company has spent a lot during supply and the income is low so l want to pay faster so I will be able to apply for another loan in the future

    Dear Edward,

    Did you see this announcement from our director on our forum? www.zidisha.org/forum-threa...

    That forum topic is frequently updated with the new status updates. If it says the problem should be resolved then please check your account again. In the meantime you might get automatically generated mails about “paying late”. You can ignore those mails.

    Your payments will still be recorded on the day that you did the actual payment and the repayment score will be recalculated. So my advice is to continue to pay as scheduled.

    Kind regards,
    Joost
    Team Zidisha

    Please be sure to make your repayments on time Edward. Lenders cannot relend what they are not paid back. Delaying payments affects your fellow borrowers. Keeping a high repayment rate will also make it easier to have future loans funded. Lenders can sort loans by repayment rate when deciding who to loan to. Zidisha is a powerful tool, when used correctly to grow business.

    Am changing the installment from 74 to 10 because l have used the loan to buy new goods and we are now starting with the sales so l want to reduce in order to make payment easy.
