Petition for R699 car scheme


───   13:26 Sat, 23 Aug 2014


Duane Petrus Bloemfontein - A petition will soon be set up in support of the
tens of thousands of South Africans who have been affected by the infamous R699
car scheme.
 
This follows the Port Elizabeth High court’s decision yesterday not to grant a
class action against three banks and the Satinsky group.
 
The affected clients initiated the class action in a bid to have their contracts
with the banks declared null and void, citing irresponsible lending.
 
Satinsky paid clients to drive a certain number of kilometres with advertising
stickers on their cars.
 
The deal recently fell apart. Don Ross, an administrator at the Facebook page “I
have been done in by ‘Drive a new car for R699 per month’, says they aim to get
100 000 signatures on the petition.

Ross says they are planning to appeal the court’s decision.
 
Meanwhile, Beel newspaper reported today that the owner of Satinsky 128 wants to
sue WesBank for R20 billion.
 
Albert Venter claims WesBank allegedly disclosed confidential information of
their financing scheme, breaking their confidential agreement.
 
WesBank was the only bank from the four big South African banks that did not get
involved in the scheme. Standard Bank, Nedbank and Absa financed Satinsky cars.
 
Beeld reported that in July, WesBank CEO Chris de Kock said that there was
concern about the company's business plan and that was why the bank did not get
involved when approached.
 
He said it showed characteristics of a Ponzi scheme.
In the letter delivered to WesBank on Thursday, Satinsky 128 claim that on
September 18, 2013, the bank disclosed confidential information to third
parties. The names of the third parties where not mentioned.
 
In the letter, Venter's lawyers claim that because of the disclosure, he lost
R25 bn.
 
Beeld reported that it was information given to WesBank when Satinsky tried to
get the bank involved.
 
The scheme offered to cut repayments on new cars to R699, if the motorists drove
a minimum distance with pasted advertisements about the scheme on their cars.
 
The scheme collapsed in July and banks called for full repayments --amounts
which were not affordable for those involved.
