2239875200 - Does this number belong to Cash Today Limited?

I have consolidated my bills and these people keep calling me at work and my boss. They will not obey the cease and desist order. i am afraid my job is in jeopardy because of these offensive phone calls.

Have your boss tell them you quit or were fired. They will not follow a C&D. You should never answer there call again on any phone including personal lines. The best thing you can do is change all your contact phone numbers.

exactly dollars i couldn't have said it better.

I have also been receiving phone calls from them. In 2005 I took out a loan with them (will never do again) for 200.00. I filed bankruptcy and due to a paperwork error they were not included in my bankruptcy. I have been dealing with numerous threatening phone calls at work, I have faxed them a letter requesting to contact me at home that it is illegal according to the "Fair debt collectors Act" to contact me at work. I have asked them repeatedly to send me something in writing showing how much I owe them, they have refused everytime and hang up on me. I have filed complaints with the FTC and the consumer complaint division in NJ. They have said there is nothing to send in writing it was all done electronically, they have tried to get me to give them a family members bank information, they have called me numerous times at work. The gentlemen I have spoken to tell me I can either settle my debt by paying by money gram 600.00 or if I want to make other arrangements it may cost me up to $6,000.00. I have asked them everytime to send me something in writing and each time they say they can not.

I am trying to find an attorney that will handle this on my behalf as well as anyone else who has gone through this with them.

As a result of my bankruptcy and them calling I do not and can not open a bank account in my name so I have nothing for them to take.

Let me know if any one wants to join me in suing them for harrassment and whatever other charges we can bring against them.

Mary,

Don't bother paying an attorney unless you have an Attorney or better yet a thug in the UK that can actually do something to these guys. A U.S. attorney won't be able to do squat for you in this case. Your bankruptcy means nothing to them. Filing amended papers to attach these guys won't stop the calls. These guys are criminal thugs that hide in another country and harrass people over the phone for money. I would reccomend three things. First read this entire thread from page 1 to page 60 or whatever it is just so you know what kind of scumbags you are dealing with. Second don't ever talk a phone call from them again. If they call either don't answer or hang up unless you feel like getting a good laugh and then you can make fun of them. Third, change any contact phone number they have of yours if you can change it and have your boss tell them you were fired for to many collection calls at work.

I know exactly what all of you are talking about, I took out a loan with them back in 2005, then ended up filing bankruptcy. I have sent them the cease letter, they still keep calling. I have asked them numerous times to send me in writing exactly how much I owe them, their answer is they can't because it was all done electronically. Their solution is to either pay them 600.00 through a money gram, or make installments which could total up to $6,000. I have filed complaints with the FTC several times giving them names and telephone numbers. Cashtoday has even threatened to contact me references on my application and have tried to get me to give them bank account information for my family members to settle this. The only way it is going to be settled is if they send me in writing what I owe or they can file the papers to have it deducted from by paycheck and in that case they will only get 10% of my salary every two weeks not the amount they want.

I am trying to find an attorney that will help with a class action suit against them for harrassment at the very least. If anyone out there can help, please let us know.

I know these guys did you wrong like many others on these boards. I don't want to sound like I don't sympathize with you or completely agree with you. These guys are the reason I am here. Just for the record I am completely against PDLs but my wife took out some without my knowledge. These guys were one of them and they made all kinds of threats to my wife until I told her to never accept one of their phone calls ever again. That was over a year ago. After a few months of not answering they pretty much quit calling accept on a rare occasion. Her phone numbers have all changed now so they don't call anymore.

Trust me when I say if I could see these guys go to jail or get their pants sued off I would be onboard in a heartbeat. The problem is they are offshore and no U.S. Attorney or Federal Agency has any jurisdiction over them. They have committed all kinds of U.S. crime but they are pretty much untouchable through our legal system. I think they stay clean in the U.K. so U.K. officials won't go after them. Basically they are operating in a loop hole unless our government can convince their government to shut them down or send them here for prosecution. That is why you won't see a class action lawsuit against them.

I still stand firm on the best solution is to not take their calls and change your numbers at least until the U.K. government gets off ther butts and does something about these criminals.

I completely agree with everything that is said here--but I strongly believe that the only thing a foreign government is going to listen to is money. The new Presidential administration, whether it be an Obama administration or a McCain administration is going to have to tell the governments where these offshores hide that unless steps are taken to halt their criminal actions, the US will look at reducing foreign aid accordingly. That is going to be the only way that action will happen here.
In the meantime, I would advise that the next time these yo-yos call, tell them that you have filed a police report in your town against them. I would still file with the FTC and other agencies as that is the only way that this problem is going to be documented with the government. Otherwise, nothing will ever be done, as they will not think there is a problem.

have been receiving the same phone calls from cash today unlimited. I took out a loan with them in 2005 for 200.00. I ended up filing bankruptcy and closed my checking account. Ever since then I have been getting phone calls at work numerous times a day, threatening to keep calling me until I get fired (that will ensure they get their money). I have also asked them numerous times not to contact me at work according to the "Fair Debt Collector's Act", they disregard that. I have also asked them to mail me exactly what I owe them, they say they can not it was all done electronically. Before my checking account was closed, two payments had been made to them, they do not even acknowledge them, they keep telling me that if I agree to pay them 600.00 in a money gram that my account will be closed and if I can not do that then the amount I owe them could go as high as $6,000. I have filed complaints with the FTC several times, the local division of consumer affairs in NJ.

In the numerous phone calls I have received from them, they have threatened to contact my parents, they have also tried to get me to give them family members bank information so they can deduct the amount I owe from that, they have also threatened to keep contacting me at work. I get the name and tel number they are calling from, ask them again to send me something in writing stating how much I owe, when they start yelling and threatening me I hang up on them. I am not paying them anything until they send it in writing.

I am trying to find an attorney who will sue them for harassment and anything else they can toss in, if anyone knows of an attorney willing to shut them down, let me know.

DollarsandSince for your response. Sounds like a good idea to me. That is pretty much what I am doing is hanging up on them. The other thing that I have found that works sometimes is to tell them to send you something in writing which we all know they are not going to do.

My next step is to have my boss answer the phone when they ever and they will call again is to tell them I got fired. When they call me at home it comes up as an "Unknown Caller" I act like I am going to answer and then hang up. They end up calling back a few times but after that they get frustrated and stop.

If anyone comes with anyother ideas, please let us all know.

I would suggest you change your personal phone numbers and keep them unlisted. That will stop all home collections coming from any collectors including these idiots. When they called my wife at work it was on her line so she pretended to be someone else and informed them she was not allowed to take personal calls. When they tried other lines she had other people tell them the same thing. At first they called a number of times a day but after a couple weeks of getting the same response the call volume dropped to maybe one per month. She switched companies now so they have no contact info for her anymore.

Mary...was your BK dismissed or discharged? Was this included in your BK? Since your probably dealing with collectors calling from another country, there may be nothing you can do that has teeth but if it was discharged in BK, get with your BK Attorney.

itook out a loan with this company over 1 year ago, and they just called me a couple weeks ago saying i owe them over $2500. problem is when i asked "Sean" what my original loan amt was he said $350. when speaking to another person they said $200! one person said i owe $2500, one said $1200 and another said $2700! they called my job every 10 minutes for 2 hours straight. they harrassed and called my coworkers and my supervisor liars! i paid my loan off within 3 weeks so i don't know why they're saying i still owe them money. the last person i spoke with was on tuesday and i asked for an itemized copy of what they say i owe and have paid and like other posters have stated, they wont send me anything. i asked for the address to send a money order and they won't take money orders. she threatened to have my wages garnished however, i know that they can't do that in the state of north carolina. i told her to go ahead and she paused. i was being as kind as i could, but i told her to get her "legal team" together and have the paperwork sent to my employer. i work in the corporate office and have already spoken with payroll and of course they will not garnish my wages because it's against the law. i haven't heard from them again yet. i told her to do what she had to do on her end and i would do what i had to do on mines. even if they do start calling again i WILL NOT PAY ANOTHER PENNY WITHOUT PROOF OF WHAT THEY SAY I OWE!

I have the same problem as Lili (posted on Fri, Aug 15, 200. My loan was in 2006 and Cash Today Limited was the company. I defaulted on my loan and agreed to pay them, but just couldn't catch up in the payments. I'm married now and Cash Today Limited contacted me at my work and said that I owed them $3,600 now (interest & late fees included) and that it needed to be paid right away or they would contact my work. My husband contacted them and had a hard time understanding them (they had a very strong middle eastern accent). My husband paid my loan off and had to pay an extra $131.00 service fee. Found out that the extra $131.00 was to have the money wired to them so we were thinking that their office is overseas. After paying them off we thought that would be the last of hearing from them. Not so!! Just last week (August 13th) they called my work again and left a message that I needed to call them. My husband got on the phone with them from home and he talked with a Mark. Mark said that we have to pay $480 to close the account which shocked my husband. He told Mark to mail us documents indicating what we already paid the $3,600 to Cash Today Limited and the reason for the extra $480. My husband was not going to pay that til we got the document, then he hung up on Mark. On August 14th we got another call from Mark saying that I owe $4,700 which we don't know what that was for. When my husband asked him, Mark said with was for a different account through Cash Limited which he said was not associated with Cash Today Limited thou they have the same phone number. We asked again for documents validating the amount and they said that they wouldn't send us any until we agree to pay over the phone. My husband said no payment til we get the documents and they got very pissy with us. To this day they are still calling me at work and on my husbands cell phone. We are in the process of sending a cease & decease letter to them and what we want to know is should we file a claim also with the Washington State Atty General's office also since we live in Washington? I'm tired of getting calls at my work and not sure if this cease & decease letter will work, but don't want anyone at work to know about my problem. Can anyone suggest anything else?

Absolutely file with your state AG and do it tomorrow! You are right--Cash Today is an overseas company (based in London) and is one of the worst ones out there. DO NOT pay them one more penny! Being that they are overseas, also file a claim with the FTC. Keep us posted!

Kscornell - I will go and file at my state AG office, if I can find it. Is there a FTC website that I can go to or do I have to go to their office and file the claim. We are new to this. Can anyone give suggestion or send me the link.
