    No effort to repay in over 5 months. I dislike leaving negative comments but do believe in accountability, without it there would be no Zidisha to make loans.

    i called Salome but she did not pick up her phone so i spoke with another family member who told me that Salome was unable to pay because she lost her job but promised to talk to encourage her to continue paying back her loan.

    Hi Salome,
    In regards to your question regarding the credit risk fee, it is refundable once you pay off your loan. Regards, Margaret

    Hi Salome,
    The credit risk fee is to protect lenders from borrowers who do not pay. This is unfortunately necessary because there are borrowers who make no effort to repay.. Please do not use this as an excuse not to pay. You have had 7 loans from Zidisha and this last one is $250.73 which is a substantial amount, therefore you should make an effort to pay it back. Since you borrowed from Zidisha in the past I am sure you understood this. Lenders put their faith in you to help you, please do not disappoint them all, please make an effort to pay back your loan. You can adjust your payments by logging into your account, lenders understand that business can be unpredictable so they are not offended when you change your schedule, it is important to make small payments rather than none at all.

        The credit risk is to cover the loan that you do not repay. As an example you borrowed $250.73, you don't pay it back. Lenders get discouraged because they get $0 returned. Then they stop lending because the idea behind Zidisha is to help people grow their business through loans, not free gifts. If everyone didn't pay there would be no Zidisha. So the credit risk is to prevent this. Please make an effort to repay your loan. You did after all, borrow the money in the first place. Please don't throw away the opportunities that Zidisha can offer, there is no other program like it that is as flexible for a growing business like yours..

          Salome and Margaret,

          The credit-risk fees go into a pool of funds in case
          *any* borrower defaults. It is not just in case the
          particular borrower paying the fee defaults.

          The credit-risk fee for any loan taken out as of
          16 December 2018 (or later) is no longer refundable.
          It is my understanding that this is because of too many
          defaults occurring on the platform.
