Ok, I applied for a loan with a company, they came in and filled out the forms and keep delaying bringing in the money.

The company is called SDCL or 'Same day cash loans'

they are also very hard to get hold of via their number which by chance is an 0870 number.

I have searched google to no success and haven't found anything :-(

their number is as follows 0870 042 9816

This is on the Isle of wight.

many thanks in advance.

How did you make the initial approach ?  Via the web ?

Sorry but you're going to have to give us a LOT more than that to enable us to help you.

There's NO SUCH company advertised as SDCL, Same Day Cash Loans, or anything like it. Most references are in statements from companies supplying loans, most of which are in the USA.

The 0870 just doesn't come up anywhere, in any format whatsoever, so we'll need a great deal more from you.

An address would be useful !!  :-/

It was done through a leaflet put through the door, no address - and the lady came in with the forms and hasn't been back since.

the sheet she left us with the "rules" about the loan has the name 'SDCL' which she said meant "Same day cash loans" (unless I mis-heard her) but I don't think so!

it also has an e-mail address and the contact phone number - its all the details I have :(

I'll dog around tomorrow and try to find out more.

sorry.

I think that there is a lesson to be learned here and that is Don't buy anything from people who cold call !!  ::)

This is obviously a scam and this person now has all your personal details and will be able to take out a loan in your name. All they need is items that show your address (you didn't give them anything did you ?) and of course your signature (tell me you didn't !!)

I would suggest most strongly that you call the Police about them quickly before they have a chance to use the information you gave them, or you could find yourself owing a lot of money !!
