Additional direct debit with no permission
I sponsored 2orphans, but 2 Hindu kids from Bangladesh were assigned to me, I wonder if everyone got the same kids from Bangladesh and it is only a scam.
Also they activated a 3rd direct debit ( additional transaction) without my permission.

I stopped my payments after reading things about penny appeal. I was a long standing contributer to penny appeal, years. So I phoned them up told them the issues and that they need to stop taking money of my account, I was told that's fine. Next month they went in again made another phone i was told it won't happen again and again the following month they went again. Called again for them to stop taking money out of my account and I want a refund of the two months money that they have taken without authorisation. It's coming up to a year almost no refund keep phoning and get told will sort out but
nothing. I honestly use to believe in penny appeal I started with them when hey were new on and off but now been giving for 3 or 4 years now. Don't they know that this is donated money and how strict Islam is about donated money. How do they justify paying salaries to there top 5 people over 4 hundred thousands pounds. They have totally lost their way. Unfortunately there are other muslim charities not all who paying the same wages.

BE AWARE --- SCAMS

I have recently used them for Qurbani but since I made the payment I have realised random multiple payment coming out of my account daily.
I should have checked the reviews before using them. Made a big mistake.

Respuesta de Penny Appeal
STAY AWAY
STAY AWAY! These guys are the no.1 scammers in the Charity sector.
They use the money of honest and hard-working people to fill their own pockets - this has been verified!
Absolutely shameful, hope they get what they deserve in this life and the hereafter.

Original review
I bought Ramadan dates with special edition tins. They have never been delivered nor will anyone answer an email asking for an update. Do not buy it donate to them

Stay away from these scammers the money we donate only a small percentage reaches people in need if that and majority these thieves pocket. Same with a marriage app these guys run where they send spam fake messages from fake profiles run by their scamming team to get you to pay for their membership. You rather donate to people you can physically give to rather than organisations like this.

This has to be a scam
This has to be a scam! Donated a hefty amount for an orphanage project and it turned out to be a phantom. No updates, no construction, just empty promises. I regret every penny given to this deceitful scheme.

Respuesta de Penny Appeal
Bad XP
Beware of this scam! I invested a large sum in what I thought was a noble cause, only to find out that the project doesn’t exist. The lack of accountability is shocking.

Feeling scammed after donating £40k for an orphanage that was never built. There’s no sign of progress, and my inquiries have been met with total silence. This experience has shaken my trust in charitable organizations.

Respuesta de Penny Appeal
Scammed and heartbroken
Scammed and heartbroken, I donated in good faith for an orphanage that never materialized. The lack of progress and accountability from this organization is a clear indicator of their deceitful practices.

Respuesta de Penny Appeal
I’ve been scammed
I’ve been scammed! My generous donation for an orphanage construction has led nowhere. No progress, no communication, just a glaring void where a charitable project should have been. It’s a disgraceful scam.

I used to donate always but was told that the charity does not reach the needed so stop really disappointed may Allah guide these individuals.they keep calling I have told them so stay away .

Respuesta de Penny Appeal
Untrustworthy IMO
Sorry to say after reading the yearly statements submitted on companies house, your company isn't really a charity is it especially when the CEO/Founder is taking a large salary not only that but the the amount of donations received and the amount of actual money spent on charity, there is a huge disparity. Also a charity water well was done by a brother and sister separately, they both get the exact same picture of the same well but the names are doctored, so it makes me wonder how many times has that one specific water well picture has been used with multiple names, to me that would indicate FRAUD. I have zero trust in this charity.

Respuesta de Penny Appeal
Loss of trust.
I saw the BBC report, a charity without accountability to its donors is not trustworthy for me.

I feel absolutely disgusted with the Penny Appeal opened its Gambia office in 2014 scandal with the orphans. I have donated to this charity for years to make a difference to orphans and widows. But people cannot help themselves preying on the venerable. There is no transparency. I will not be donating to this charity ever again. Poor orphans have another battle to fight on top their existing conditions. To those evil people ALLAH (SWT) will be the judge of you INSHALLAH.

Respuesta de Penny Appeal
Avoid this charity
Avoid this charity, too many dodgy stories about Penny Appeal. There are much better and trustwothy charities out there doing good work and are careful how they spend donor money.

Respuesta de Penny Appeal
I’m so upset
I’m so upset
I have been donating for years
I trusted them
But when I saw the reviews and the bbc documentary.
I will stop all donations and will pass the message to all mosques and public .
These people who Scam should fear Allah. They are e scamming the poor and the people with big heart who give . Karma will be received this life and the next. May god have mercy on these charities as they forgot the punishment by their god

Respuesta de Penny Appeal
A big scam
A big scam, the money donated does not go to the poor and needy. Please do not donate to penny appeal.
