    if you don't pay, it's bad for you, and the whole service of Zidisha, and gives a bad reputation. You should pay, even in smaller amounts

    Dear all,
    I communicated with Gilbert Ongeri through the phone of his brother after several unsuccessful calls. He told me that he lost his phone. Further he told me that his chickens stopped laying eggs and he majorly depends on his chickens hence for now is not in position to pay his loans, but I tried to tell him the goodness of repaying earlier to Zidisha and he was convinced with my suggestions upon he promised to make his repayments as soon as possible
    THANKS

    I will call you in the course of the day so that you will be able to reschedule your loan to the amount you are able of repaying because I can see your on time repayment is 60% which means it is below 95% a requirement of zidisha.

    Through the phone call the guy told me that he has been very sick and he has not attended his job over some time and I asked him to reschedule his loan but he told me that by now he is very okay and he has already done his repayments yesterday and am hoping that you will adjust his loan page.
