Sub: Plain Green Loans Virginia

Tue, 05/29/2012 - 08:39

I took out a loan from Plain Green for $800 and have since made paid them more than the principal amount. I followed the instructions here in the forum, closed the account and sent them the form letter. I got a call at work this morning and was told that this is not a "payday" loan but is a "short term installment loan" but is set up like a pdl. Am I wrong about this? Do I need to continue with 18 payments of $116.23 on an $800 loan? I have seen on here that because it is a tribal loan that it is illegal in all states? Is that true? I want to do the right thing but at the same time, I need to get myself out of this mess of pdl's that I have gotten myself into. Please give advise.

They are still tribal and more than likely do not have a license to lend in your state.

Plain Green does NOT have a license to lend in Virginia. This is typical of tribal lenders. This statement on their disclosure page says it all...

Sub: #4 Thank you SoapLadyTue, 05/29/2012 - 07:58

Thank you SoapLady

I am trying to find the area in Virginia law that says they have to be licensed in the state. The difficulty I am having is that they state this is a short term installment loan and not a payday loan. I cannot find anything that states that installment loans on the internet, regardless of tribal or not, are illegal in Virginia. If you have a reference for me, I would greatly appreciate it. I am not very good with legal jargon.

I really appreciate the help you have given me so far by the way. You are a RockStar!

Sincerely,

Bruce
