City of London Police have confirmed they are to look again at whether they think a criminal investigation into Wonga would be appropriate after the payday lender sent out fake legal letters to customers.
The Financial Conduct Authority said that it referred Wonga to the police to assess whether the payday lender had committed a criminal offence, but the City of London Police have decided not to proceed with a case, ITV News Editor Jess Brammar has learned:
The country's biggest payday lender apologised after admitting it sent 45,000 customers letters from fake law firms.
The payday lender's misleading practices has shown how unfairly customers have been treated in the past.
