    Dear Lenders,

    my name is Roberta Zenere and I am a Kenya Country Liaison Intern at Zidisha. Within this role, I am coordinating the Zidisha's MPESA team, responsible for processing loan repayments and disbursements.

    Today, while reviewing our accounts, I noticed that the repayment of 164.43 USD (14,000 KES) posted on August, 21 in the repayment schedule of Mr Kamau was entered by mistake. This means that, upon removal of the transaction, the amount that had been credited to your lender account will be reversed and will reduce your available balances accordingly.

    We are sorry for this inconvenience. Please, let us know if you have any questions.

    Thanks for your patience!

    Best regards,

    Roberta
    Zidisha Team

    dear all my lenders, i hope you are very fine. i have decided to reschedule my loan for one month only though i hope to make my repayments in next week.my purpose of rescheduling my loan is to update you that even one month will not pass. i had given a certain company my commodities but i have to wait for my check to mature. this is going to take only five days.so instead of me waiting yet my lenders doesnt understand what am doing, this is the reason why i have decided to let you know what am doing in good faith and also with a lot of thanks from all of you. i hape to pay next week.though i have rescheduled for one month. thank so much all my lenders.
