I was introduced to clothe selling business by my sister who has progressed so well in life.

    Hello, i was greatly shocked to receive kshs 1,952 for my loan application of kshs 10,000, indeed this is a total disappointment to me and my business because the little money received will not buy the intended stock yet i have to pay for the full installment, in my opinion i thought the membership fee is deducted in bits. Kindly review this to help the starters to benefit from the loan. Confused Loise!

      Loise,
      I am sorry for the confusion. The intention of making these deductions from the first loan is to discourage dishonourable people, who have no intention of repaying the loan from applying. Of course, you ar not one of these individuals, but this policy seems to be working well. While it means the first loan, may not be of benefit. It is a very good arrangement over a number of loans.
      As you have only just now received the funds, I believe Zidisha will allow you to cancel the loan and return the funds. If you wish to take this options, I suggest you need to act now by sending a message to Zidisha at [email protected] for further instructions.

      Good luck to you.
