Menzgold to pay customers beginning today

Customers of embattled gold dealership firm, Menzgold Ltd. are to receive payment towards their locked up funds starting today, Friday, December 27, 2019.

The company scheduled the date after several months of agitation by customers across the country.

But the Vice-Chairman of the Coalition of Menzgold Customers Isaac Nyarko in an interview said even though payment schedule is beginning today, they are unaware of where they should go for their money.

“We’ve not received any official communication as to where customers should go and take their money and as to the exact time and the number of people they intend paying. We believe this whole thing is deceit and not really anything to be able to really measure as to who has collected his or her money.”

Menzgold has announced it intends to pay all locked up investment of its customers within three years.

In a much-awaited payment schedule, the company said customers who did not receive any interest on their investment from the start of contract will be the first to be paid beginning Friday, December 27.

Below are details of a statement by Menzgold
