    Hello - I am a volunteer here with Zidisha, wanting to let those who have lent to Ms. Gathoni know that although she has missed her February payment, she has let the Zidisha team know that she expects to make payment in March. Thanks!

      Dear Ms. Gathoni,

      Thank you for alerting us to the mixup. We have confirmed that you did make a payment of KSH 4100 on September 7. Since the name on the M-PESA mobile banking account from which you made the payment was "Mary Mwangi", we erroneously credited it to another Zidisha borrower whose name is also Mary Mwangi. We see now that the payment was in fact made from your M-PESA account. The amount has been credited to your Zidisha record, and you are now fully current with repayments due.

      (Note to lenders: It is common in Kenya for individuals to go by more than one surname. In these cases, Zidisha is able to identify individuals by national identification number and M-PESA mobile banking account number, which are independently verified by a credit bureau during the background check that is conducted for all Zidisha borrowers.)

      Please accept our sincere apologies for any inconvenience caused by the error.

      Best regards,

      Julia Kurnia
      Director, Zidisha Inc.
