    Hi Hellen, I can see it's been two months since you made a repayment. Could you give us an update on your business?

    I would like to reschedule my repayment schedule to Ksh.400 thus prolonging repayment period due to unavoidable circumstances. I have been sick for some time thus unable to repay the loan and also to operate my business. I have now resumed and i will repay the loan in full. Kindly consider my situation.
