that's easy.it's because they are illegal don't care and are stupid.

apparently the state of nevada filed papers against them on 11/6/08. Do google search for cash today ltd its will be down a few choices

What paul said. They don't care. I got another e-mail from them earlier this week that if I didn't pay the principal that they would tack on charges, and continue collection on the account.

I had to remind them that they were not licensed in my state, and they were not allowed " tack on charges" I also had to remind them that they were not allowed to contact my work. (Apparently they said they verified my employment through HR" yeah right.) My Hr doesn't verify employment (We're a big company and employment verification is done in Houston at our main branch), and you'd have to get through the receptionist, since she knows what's going on, she'll tell you to get lost.

I also reminded them that the FTC was suing them for fair debit collection act violations as well as other things, haven't heard a peep from them since.

"If you ignore them..they will go away...they can't do anything to you...trust me. it is an illegal company

hey dont worry about cash today people..they are just trying to grab more dollars from you..dont pay them back they cant do anything coz they are based in different company..an internal source has confirmed this to me..well..guys if u r filing bankruptcy..just hang up on them., or use abusive language with those guys..tell them to piss off..they cant do any sort of harm to you..they only call u..thats it..if they want to talk to your supervisor..u just present yourself as supervisor and talk to them and make a fool out of themm hahahah

I have been harrassed by a lawyer in Baltimore Brian Blitz, for 10 yrs. I am not the person they are looking for. Last night a man showed up at my home asking my husband to sign a paper accepting a summon with my name and aka another name. The paper was folded in quarters. lucky he saw the aka and told him no this isn't her. he had a badge around his neck and in a white car stating he was a police officer. I then asked him if he was a P.O. and he said no I am a P investagator. I told him to get off my property and I was calling the police. He took off before I could get the tag #. This lawyer is real. What he is doing is not. He is trying to collect money he is not owed. This is a scam. I called the court and was told it was a scam. Someone should stop this nut. I am calling the AG tomarrow. May even get a lawyer myself. Only if I can sue him.

Cash today Limited is being sued by the FTC, I'd also contact them and let them know what happened as well.

I have read what you people have been saying about being called at work. They do this to intimidate you, they know co-workers are around and you are going to tell them anything to get them off your back, the catch is they are recording this, because they know you can't, I mean how many work places have recorders? Tell the sob's to drop dead and never call you at work anymore. You do do not have to pay them if they threaten or embarrass you , especially harrassment tactics. I even had them to tell me they were attorneys, I responded, well I am too.

Under NO circumstances should you pay these illegal crooks.

They asre bring charged by the FTC and will likely go to jail. The criminal behind all of these illegal companies is Aaron Gershfield. Instead of paying on these illegal oans, next time you get a call, hang up and call this number 07973 377 915
and ask for Aaron Gershfield.

I have been told that this is completely illegal...Does anyone know what I should/can do to get this to stop? I know that they are suppose to stop calling once I file bankruptcy so am sure that the bankruptcy courts will love to hear what they are doing to people~

Dear Anonymous....
That is clearly a violation of the fair debt collection practices act of 1978. Did you get a name and number of the person who did this? Contact your local attorney generals office and file a complaint/report. Also, check and see if they are registered to do business in your state. They may have violated more than one law.

Good luck

The FDCPA only applies to third party collectors, NOT the original creditor.

This company called me a year ago saying that I owed them what I originally borrowed plus interest...making what I owed somewhere in the $1000s. At first I was going to pay them and then I investigated and found that other people had been harassed and that they were not licensed to give loans etc. Well today out of the blue I got a call from some man with an accent saying that his name was Michael McGreevy and that he was a lawyer and that my debt was a serious matter and legal action would be taken against me. Mr. McGreevy then put on his "supervisor" who told me the same thing and I hung up on her. They tried to call me 5 more times and some other person from the legal department left a message stating that legal action would be taken against me if I didn't respond. Funny thing though...they said that I had an old debt from Advance America. I do not have any pay day loans past or present! Are they using a different name now to avoid being caught?!?!?!? I now see that the State of Nevada has gotten into the act yet they still are trying to get money f rom people! I think that this company should be exposed on a show like Dateline...if nothing can be done to them at least this would expose this company to unsuspecting consumers! I don't think anything can be done to these people...I heard that they didn't even show up for their hearing! I will just hang up on them and file complaints against them.

Even though they are being sued...they are still calling and harrassing! Also they are using a different name

Hang up immediately, the more you talk to them the more they will call, if you hang up it gives them no reason to call and they will tire sooner talking to thin air.

It doesn't surprise me if it is indeed them that's going to this tactic--and I'm sure the FTC would love to know about it, since I believe they do have their number.
I would register a complaint against them on the FTC website and it would be interesting to find out if they are still doing collections from England or if they have closed their Reno, NV offices (which I think are just a maildrop, but I could be wrong).
Either way, I'm afraid we haven't heard the last from this company. Like roaches under a rock, they are trying to find a way to survive. We just need to spread the word.
