Frequently asked questions
Cancel Lendplus: Step-by-Step Guide
How to cancel LendPlus and take control of your credit in south africa
What is LendPlus and why cancellation makes sense
LendPlus operates as a registered digital credit provider under South Africa's National Credit Act, offering short-term personal loans online. You apply through their web portal, receive approval within hours, and access funds directly to your bank account. The service targets borrowers seeking emergency cash or bridging finance, with loan amounts ranging from R500 to R4,000 and repayment periods typically spanning 7 to 30 days.
You may decide to cancel your LendPlus account for legitimate financial reasons: you've repaid your loan and no longer require the service, the fees or interest rates feel excessive compared to alternatives, or you want to reduce your exposure to short-term credit altogether. Whatever your motivation, this guide-provided by Yafee-will walk you through the cancellation process with clarity and precision.
How LendPlus operates in practice
LendPlus uses a subscription-style lending model where you maintain an active account and can access multiple loans within your approved credit limit. The platform charges fixed arrangement fees, daily interest, and monthly service charges. You manage your account online, view your loan history, make repayments, and theoretically access credit on demand. This accessibility, while convenient, can encourage repeat borrowing and accumulating debt if you're not deliberate about closure.
Common reasons to cancel your LendPlus account
Financial circumstances change. You may have secured lower-cost credit elsewhere, paid off your initial loan and wish to avoid temptation, or decided that short-term lending doesn't align with your long-term financial goals. Cancelling removes the psychological and practical friction that keeps you borrowing. Yafee supports your right to exit this relationship cleanly and without penalty.
Your consumer rights under south african law
South Africa's consumer protection framework provides you with robust legal safeguards when dealing with credit providers, and these rights form the foundation of your cancellation process.
The national credit act cooling-off period
Under the National Credit Act (Act 34 of 2005), you enjoy a statutory cooling-off right of 5 business days from the date you accept a credit agreement. During this window, you may cancel without penalty and receive a full refund of any fees or charges you've paid. You are not required to provide a reason for cancellation. If you're within 5 business days of accepting your most recent loan, contact LendPlus immediately in writing and cite Section 65 of the National Credit Act. This is your strongest legal position and requires the lender to act within 5 business days.
Your legal position: If you cancel within the cooling-off period, LendPlus must refund all money you've paid, including arrangement fees and any interest charged. If they refuse, escalate your complaint to the National Credit Regulator (NCR), South Africa's official credit industry watchdog.
Your right to accurate disclosure and fair treatment
Before you sign any credit contract, Section 82 of the National Credit Act entitles you to receive a pre-agreement statement and a full cost quotation detailing all fees, interest rates, and charges in plain language. You also have the right to request account statements at any time and to receive prompt written responses to your queries. If LendPlus failed to provide these documents upfront or has breached its transparency obligations, you have grounds to lodge a formal complaint with the NCR.
Your right to cancel after the cooling-off period
Once the cooling-off period expires, you may still cancel your account at any time. However, you remain liable for any outstanding loan balance and any fees associated with early settlement. Cancellation terminates your access to future credit but does not erase existing debt. Yafee recommends clearing all outstanding balances before initiating cancellation to avoid complications.
How to cancel LendPlus step by step
The cancellation process involves clear procedural steps that vary depending on your account status and preferred communication method.
Step one: check your account balance and loan status
Before you cancel, log into your LendPlus account and verify your current balance. If you have an outstanding loan, decide whether to settle it in full or arrange a payment plan. LendPlus may refuse to close your account until all debt is repaid, though you should clarify this by contacting their customer service team directly. Check your account for any pending charges or hidden fees that might surprise you after closure.
Step two: cancel through the LendPlus web portal (recommended method)
The web portal is the official and most reliable cancellation method, as it provides you with an immediate confirmation and a clear audit trail for your records.
- Open your web browser and navigate to the LendPlus website or mobile app.
- Log in to your account using your email address and password.
- If you've forgotten your password, click "Forgot Password" and follow the recovery link sent to your email.
- Keep your login credentials secure until cancellation is confirmed.
- Navigate to "Account Settings," "My Account," or "Preferences" from your dashboard menu.
- Locate the "Close Account," "Cancel Membership," or "Deactivate Account" option.
- This option may appear under "Account Management" or "Security Settings."
- If you cannot locate it, proceed to Step Three.
- Click the cancellation button and confirm your intent when prompted.
- Review any final warnings or outstanding balance notifications.
- Submit your cancellation request and take a screenshot of the confirmation page for your records.
Step three: cancel by email if the portal option is unavailable
If the web portal does not display a cancellation option, contact LendPlus in writing via email. This creates a formal record of your cancellation request and ensures you have written evidence of your intent.
- Compose a clear, concise email to LendPlus customer support.
- Include the following information in your email:
- Your full name and email address associated with the account.
- Your account number or phone number registered with LendPlus.
- A clear statement: "I hereby request the immediate cancellation of my LendPlus account."
- Today's date and your signature (type your name if sending electronically).
- A request for written confirmation of your cancellation within 5 business days.
- Send the email to the primary customer support email address listed on the LendPlus website.
- Keep a copy of your email and any automatic reply receipts in a secure folder.
- Monitor your inbox for a confirmation response within 5 business days.
Step four: cancel by registered mail if email is unresponsive
If LendPlus does not respond to your email within 5 business days, escalate your cancellation request via registered mail sent to their official service address. This creates an irrefutable legal record and often prompts a faster response.
- Print or write your cancellation letter using the format outlined in Step Three.
- Address the letter to LendPlus at their service address for legal notices. The Cape Town address serves as the primary service address per their Terms and Conditions.
- If you need an alternative contact point, the Germiston Head Office address is listed in their PAIA Manual.
- Send the letter via registered mail (certified mail) so you receive proof of delivery.
- Request a signature on delivery to confirm LendPlus received your letter.
- Retain the registered mail receipt as evidence of your cancellation request.
- Follow up with an email referencing your registered mail tracking number.
Understanding LendPlus fees and what they cost you
A transparent view of LendPlus pricing helps you understand why cancellation may benefit your financial position, and clarifies what you may owe upon closure.
| Fee or charge type | Typical cost | When it applies |
|---|---|---|
| Arrangement fee | 10-15% of loan amount | Charged upfront when you draw the loan |
| Daily interest | 0.5-2% per day | Accrues daily on your outstanding balance |
| Monthly service charge | R50-R150 | Charged monthly while your account is active |
| Late payment fee | R50-R200 | Applied if you miss a scheduled repayment |
| Early settlement fee | Varies (often waived) | Some providers charge this; verify with LendPlus |
These fees can accumulate quickly, especially if you renew your loan or carry a balance beyond your initial repayment period. Yafee recommends calculating your total cost before deciding whether to repay early or cancel.
What happens after you cancel your LendPlus account
Cancellation triggers a series of events that you should monitor carefully to ensure a clean break from the service.
Immediate effects of account closure
Within 24 to 48 hours of your cancellation request, LendPlus will disable your access to the platform. You will no longer be able to log in, view your account, or apply for new loans. If you have an outstanding loan balance, you remain legally liable for that debt. The monthly service charges will cease once your account is fully closed, but any accrued interest on existing loans continues until you settle them.
Confirmation and documentation
LendPlus should send you a written confirmation email or letter confirming your account closure. This confirmation typically includes your final balance, any remaining charges, and instructions for settling any outstanding debt. Save this email as proof of your cancellation date. If you do not receive confirmation within 10 business days, contact customer support again and reference your earlier cancellation request with the date and method you used.
Settling outstanding debt after cancellation
If you cancel while carrying a loan balance, you must continue to pay this debt according to the original repayment schedule or negotiate a settlement plan. Your credit record will reflect the outstanding debt, and failure to pay may damage your credit score and trigger legal action by LendPlus. Contact their collections department to arrange payment terms if you cannot settle the full amount immediately.
Refunds and settlement of overpaid fees
Your entitlement to a refund depends on when you cancel and whether you've overpaid any charges.
Refunds within the cooling-off period
If you cancel within 5 business days of accepting your credit agreement, Section 65 of the National Credit Act entitles you to a full refund of all fees and charges, including arrangement fees and any interest charged. LendPlus must process this refund within 5 business days of receiving your cancellation notice. If the refund does not appear in your bank account within this timeframe, contact LendPlus immediately and request an explanation.
Refunds after the cooling-off period
Once the cooling-off period expires, you are generally not entitled to a refund of fees already charged. However, if you've paid more than your contractual obligation (for example, if you settle early and LendPlus charges an excess service fee), you may request a pro-rata refund of unused monthly charges. Calculate the unused portion and request this in writing. Yafee advises documenting all correspondence regarding refund requests.
What to do if LendPlus refuses to cancel your account
Occasionally, lenders obstruct cancellation requests or fail to process them within reasonable timeframes. You have legal remedies available through South Africa's consumer protection framework.
Escalate to the national credit regulator
If LendPlus refuses to cancel your account, ignores your cancellation request, or fails to respond within 10 business days, lodge a formal complaint with the National Credit Regulator (NCR). The NCR is South Africa's official credit industry watchdog and has enforcement powers to compel lenders to comply with the National Credit Act. You can submit a complaint online at the NCR's website or in writing to their Pretoria office. Include copies of all your cancellation requests and any responses from LendPlus. The NCR typically investigates complaints within 20 business days.
Dispute through the ombudsman for banking services
If LendPlus is a registered bank or has banking relationships, you may also escalate your complaint to the Ombudsman for Banking Services (OBS). The OBS can order the lender to take corrective action and award compensation if you've suffered financial loss due to their failure to process your cancellation.
Seek legal advice
If the NCR or OBS does not resolve your dispute within a reasonable timeframe, consult a consumer law attorney. You may have grounds to pursue legal action for breach of contract or violation of the National Credit Act, and Yafee recommends obtaining independent legal advice if substantial sums are at stake.
Common mistakes to avoid when cancelling LendPlus
Cancellation is straightforward when you follow the correct procedure, but several common errors can complicate the process. Stay alert to these pitfalls and your cancellation will proceed smoothly.
Assuming your account is closed because access is denied
Web access may be temporarily disabled for maintenance or security reasons, but your account may still be active. Do not assume cancellation has occurred simply because you cannot log in. Wait for written confirmation from LendPlus or follow up with customer support to verify your account status.
Leaving outstanding debt unpaid
Cancelling your account does not erase existing loan balances. You remain liable for any outstanding debt, and LendPlus may escalate collection action. Always settle or arrange payment for any remaining balance before closing your account, unless you're invoking the cooling-off right (which permits cancellation without penalty).
Failing to obtain written confirmation
Verbal cancellation requests via phone or in-person conversation leave no record. Always cancel in writing via email, registered mail, or the web portal so you have documented proof. This protects you if LendPlus later claims they received no cancellation request.
Ignoring monthly service charges after submitting a cancellation request
If your account remains active pending confirmation, monthly charges may continue to accrue. Review your bank statements during the cancellation process and dispute any charges that appear after your formal cancellation date.
