The record reflects that the appellant diligently moved to vacate the default and default judgment entered against it and that the complaint against the appellant wholly fails to state a cause of action. As the appellee concedes, a default judgment entered upon a complaint which wholly fails to state a cause of action must be vacated upon a diligently filed motion to vacate even without a showing of excusable neglect in failing to timely answer the complaint. See Sunshine Security & Detective Agency v. Wells Fargo Armored *1032Services Corp., 496 So.2d 246 (Fla. 3d DCA 1986); Fernandez-Aguiree v. Gall, 484 So. 2d 1286 (Fla. 3d DCA 1986). Therefore, we reverse the default and default judgment and remand the case for further proceedings.

Reversed and remanded.
