My payment has reflected, the proof of payment is already in your email, and yet my car was wrongfully switched off while I was on the freeway — putting me in danger, making me late for work, and leaving me stranded. There is no legal or contractual basis for repossession when the outstanding amount has been settled and proof has been provided. I expect a clear explanation immediately, as this action appears completely unjustified and abusive. Kindly respond urgently. Regards,

I know the business was trading recklessly as they were served with court papers three years ago, which came to light when BRP was approved. Funds were moved to related companies, just before BRP commenced and no KYC has been done. The BRP is also not complying with duties.
