These people were VERY reluctant to give me their mailing address. They called my bank and made me verify (while they were silently listening) that my account was closed. I told them if they wanted money, I had to send a MO.

I borrowed $200 from them and they want me to pay bank $500. No way. I'm sending 350. I wonder what they will do?

Hi wizard

When you send the money order, take the receiver id of the company from the post office. This will be an important proof of your money sent to Route 66 Funding.

Do you have the contract in writing from the company? You must review the terms and conditions before sending your payment. Besides, you can also ask them for an itemized statement of your loan account.

I rencently filed complaints with the FTC and my attorney general office as well as New Yorks AG. I've paid over $300.00 On a $200.00 loan and now they want $437.00 more. My entire transaction with them was done over the phone, they debit my account every payday even though I've told them all my accounts are closed and that I've signed up with a debt consolidation company. Has anyone else had similar experiences with them.

Most payday loan companies do the same thing. Are they accepting fund from your consolidation company? Keep the documents of payment made to them. If the try to debit your account even after receiving money from your consolidator, directly charge them.

i'm in need of toll free number for this payday loan company

I found their webpage. route66funding.com

I have 877 564 7739

We have recently filed for bankruptcy, and our lawyer informed us to stop payment on this payday loan. I also needed a mailing address for this company. I called them and they refused to provide me with this, but would give me a fax number. Come to find out the fax number they provided was to the accounting department for my work! Thanks so much for getting this mailing address.

Wizard,

Was this loan done over the phone? I believe this might be an affiliate of ICS so be careful. I think this amount should satisfy the lender. Also, you may want to get copies of bank statements to see what finance charges they have taken out of your account. I would send it via certified mail with return receipt requested. This way you will have proof that they received the payment. I would not give them any new or additional banking information at this point. Kee us updated on your progress.

Recently my Mother fell victim to Route66 funding.
She borrowed $250 in March, as of June 2 had paid $782.
before she told me about this scam. For those of you who have fell victim to this as well as: #1 close your checking account and re-open a new one IMMEDIATELY!. #2 when
R66 calls and harasses and threatens to contact the Attorney General and report you for bank fraud; Tell them that you have contacted the AG and filed a complaint and not to call you again, if they wish to correspond they must do so in writing. If any contact continues have an attorney draw up a letter to cease contact. These people are operating in a gray area they created and are targeting folks that believe they have no re-course. Any and all that have had dealings with this company must contact their state attorney general as well as the U.S. Attorney Generals office. These people have broken many state and federal laws.
Remember none of you have done anything wrong, when you borrow money you are entitled to a contract in writing within 30 days if you do not have this with a payment structure to include interest rates any verbal or internet contract is not valid. The proof that they are no ligitimate and have no recourse is their refusal to provide a physical address for correspondence.

I just posted this in another link about this company too. On May 19th I sent a certified letter and requested a return reciept to this company and have yet to recieve anything back. I sent it to the address everyone else seems to have for them. I wonder if they have moved on, because of complaints.

this comp is a fraud and we need to shut them down any help would be appriciated i will pursue as they took me for 79.00

look its me again route 66 funding keeps harassing me with phone calls i have my bank statements that say they got there money and they owe me money i threaten them with my lawyer but they said lets resolve his without fax my bank statement showing i paid as i did but they say they never got it but i have reciept saying it was sent this is getting worse as i only did a 200 loan and they took 4 79 payments from my bank they say i ow 325 ??????wtf i put a stop on the 79 payments from my account and they got in and took 35 help ???? what to do :evil:

these people are sharks. I have faxed, called, certified letter, etc to the point that they are calling all of the people at my work. Have been warned by my boss that they are to stop calling or I will be reprimanded. I just filed a Chapter 7....will this stop the cash withdrawls? I do not have the $ to continue the "fees" they keep stating I ahve with them. I have paid over 400.00 on a 250.00 loan.
