Well, that certainly is some news, Texas! As far as my states' Attorney General's office and Business and Professional Regulation Department, Payday loans are referred to as Money transmitters and Deferred presentment Providers, this email came directly from them:
The focus of our office is publishing the Florida Statutes. We cannot give opinions as to how the statutes apply to specific facts or give legal advice. In Florida Statutes, payday loans are referred to as 'deferred presentment'. Below is a list of statute sections that pertain to this subject. See especially the sub-heading 'Deferred presentment' in this list: CHECK CASHERS AND CHECK CASHING BUSINESSES Agent for service of process, 560.306 Authorized vendors, 560.306, 560.307, 560.308, 560.310 Check Cashing and Foreign Currency Exchange Act, 560.301 Deferred presentments credit counseling, 560.404 Database information, confidentiality, 560.4041 Declaration of intent, 560.403 Deferred Presentment Act, 560.401 Definitions, 560.402 Fees, 560.403, 560.404 Grace period, 560.404 Insufficient funds at time of redemption, 560.404 Legislative intent, 560.408 Notice to drawers, 560.404 Payment of proceeds to drawer, 560.404 Recordkeeping requirements, 560.407 Redemption of check by drawer, 560.405 Registration of providers, 560.403 Restrictions, 560.403, 560.404, 560.405 Transaction agreements, 560.404 Unlawful acts; penalties, 560.111, 560.403 Worthless checks, remedies of deferred presentment provider, 560.406 Definitions, 560.103, 560.302, 560.309 Exemptions from statutory provisions, 560.304 False or misleading financial statements or supporting documents, filing, 560.1073 Fees, 560.303, 560.307, 560.308, 560.309 Fingerprints, 560.306 Foreign currency exchanges, See FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGES Funds transmitters, See MONEY TRANSMITTERS; PAYMENT INSTRUMENTS AND FUNDS TRANSMISSION subtitle Payment instrument issuers or sellers and funds transmitters Investigations, 560.306 Locations, 560.305, 560.306, 560.307, 560.308, 560.310 Money laundering provisions, applicability, 560.309 Money transmitter-affiliated parties, 560.305, 560.306 Money transmitters, See MONEY TRANSMITTERS Notices, 560.309, 560.310 Payment instrument issuers or sellers, See PAYMENT INSTRUMENTS AND FUNDS TRANSMISSION Payment instruments deposited with financial institutions, endorsement with name of registrant, 560.309 Principal office, 560.305, 560.306 Records, 560.310 Registration, 560.303, 560.305, 560.306, 560.307, 560.308, 560.309 Unlawful acts; penalties, 560.1073, 560.306, 560.308, 560.310 |

I signed an agreement, gave them almost half of the amount owed and agreed to pay in 4 installments starting April 1, 2007. I got a letter today saying that they intend to take my money starting March 1, 2007 - completely disregarding the agreement. That's scum in my book.

I've enrolled in a debt consolidation program to do my
best to take care of this debt. Evidentally that's not good enough they don't deal with debt relief programs. I keep doing the same thing and make my payments to the program that I'm enrolled in so they can just deal with that. Don't let these people stress you out. |

I need advice on what to do next. My Debt with BM was 2,300, I was paying then per my bank account 296.00 for 2 months when they did a double payment out of my account which caused my account to go into the negative. I was quite upset. The bank could not reverse the fees because I allowed them acces to my account. I called them to make them aware of their mistake, first they would not take responsiblitiy saying because I owed that this would be one less payment due to them. They finally accepted resposiblity, I demanded the refund of the 296 plus the charged bank fees. This request was supposedly sent to their accounting part, (by the way, I couldn't speak to anyone in this part of the office, acounting only talks to internal personal). I got no resovle until a month later (I put a stop payment on the remainder of my payments) I got a letter about the stop payment and they want payment in full. Then by golly I got a check for the fund they took. They want to set of another payment plan with I did agree to, but I don't trust them with my banking info. I still owe then 1200. What leg do I have to stand on these are nasty people and I want to make this go away how? I just got a phone call saying their going to sue me and garnish my wages if I don't pay. How do I find out how much they bought my account for and the orginal balance of the account. Do I have to pay them, will they sue me. I live in Va their in NY can they do this by law

I absolutely would not provide them with access to my bank account again - I do not believe in providing anyone access to my bank account. If you owe the money to them, then yes, you do need to pay them, but I would get money orders and mail them on the monthly due date until the account is paid in full. Send a letter with the first payment confirming the payment plan - and it wouldn't hurt to explain that because they abused their access to your bank account before, you have been forced to pay them in this method. Then also send a letter with the last payment indicating that the last payment is included and that the account is now paid in full.

I understand that if a person borrows one they should expect to pay it back with interest. However, my debt balloned from a balance of $12,000 to $20,000 with Collect America. I lost my job and made an honest effort to pay all of my bills. I sent the firm a letter for debt validation. The office sent a letter saying my request has been received. Furthermore, the firm has been unable to provide legal proof that the debt is valid and they are entitled to collect. If debt collectors cannot honor a request, then they should cry to Congress for a welfare check, just like the banks did.

These guys are crooks. They're collection agents that buy junk debt, and then try to collect the debt pretending to be attorneys.
They call you from a 716 or toll free area code that shows as Bronson Law on the caller id. Before you have a chance to call them back, they call every one of your family members. They break every FTC rule there is. I hear there is a civil action law suit pending against them for unfair collection practices. |

Some how these guys are allowed to operate. They send out threatening letters, and make harrasing phone calls. They have called my family, yet, I have not idea how they got the number.

These companies can claim to be whoever they want to be, and do whatever they want to do. The truth is....No, they can't. If the company you owed the money to charged off your account, then what they did is just that! That means they collected money on the account by collecting taxes on it and the account cannot be collected on twice.
You need to send the company a validation or discovery letter and tell them you want in detail everything they have on the account, including where the original company hired them to collect on the account. I promise, they will eventually go away. Even if they file something in court. You can do the same and you need too. Once they figure out that you know what you are talking about, they will not bother you anymore. You also need to put in writing that they cannot contact or file anything with any credit agency either. These asswipes need to be put in their place and put outta business! |

they contacted me yesterday informing me that they were trying to stop me from getting my wages garnished. They lowered my total credit card debt by 800 and gave me one month to pay it off...does this seem legit? are they lawyers or just a debt agency trying to get my money, and am I safe in paying them?

They are a debt collections agency trying to get your money. They cannot garnish your wages until they take you to court, and you loose, and they enter a judgment against you. If you haven't been served with a summons & complaint yet, you're a good year away from the possibility of them being able to garnish your wages (depending on your jurisdiction).
