A simple work-related follow up took an unexpected turn for a loan consultant after she was accused of being interested in a client’s husband.
The woman, who describes herself on Threads as a personal loan consultant, shared a screenshot of the WhatsApp exchange and asked: “Ehhhhhh, what did I do wrong?????”
Her post has since gained more than 160,000 views.
Wanted to check if the loan had been credited
According to the screenshot, the consultant had sent a short message asking whether the loan money had already been credited.
The person replying confirmed that the money had arrived. However, instead of ending the conversation there, she added that the consultant did not need to contact them again if her husband had not personally provided any feedback.
Sorry, but I just want to say something. If my husband didn’t give any feedback, I don’t think there’s a need to WhatsApp and ask whether the money has come in.”
She then took things a step further by questioning the consultant’s intentions, writing: “Are you eyeing my husband after seeing his salary?”
The unexpected response left the consultant confused, prompting her to share the exchange online.
Netizens struggle to make connection
The exchange quickly caught the attention of netizens, with many equally puzzled over how a routine loan follow up became an accusation involving the husband.
One commenter jokingly asked whether the consultant could cancel the man’s loan after receiving such a reply.
The consultant replied that it could still be cancelled if it had not been signed, before joking about why the wife might have reacted that way.
Another commenter questioned the wife’s remark about her husband’s income.
‘The thing is, even if her husband earns a lot, he’s still taking out a loan from you. So what is there to be attracted to? Keep your husband, sis,” the comment read.
Someone else suggested an even more direct comeback: ‘Reply to her, sis: ‘If his salary was really that high, your husband wouldn’t need to take out a loan. I don’t want him either.’
Another simply asked: ‘If his salary is so high, why is he taking out a loan?’
