Gardnerjl, regular grievances are coming in the forums from the consumers about Ellis Crosby. I heard they were about to shut down but it seems that still they are continuing with their regular illegal activities.

Have you or someone else heard from them in specific?

This forum has by far reached to the most important contacts till now. I sometimes see attorney generals posting in the forums.

Yes I had interaction with this company and they threatened me while I was on medical leave. They called my employer and asked for my supervisor and stated they would come in and get my hard drive to confirm that I had done the payday loan and begin the court process if I did not pay over $1000 immediately. Now they have come back for more $ saying they did not collect it all at once. I have posted to the Attorney General and FTC yesterday regarding a complaint.

Thanks for your responses.

Well kudos to the people of this board, for getting info the right people! If it weren't for this board, Ellis might still be harassing people and doing illegal business. Their "website" has been "under construction" for quite some time, I see....

Just wanted to know since the law suit was filed does this mean we'll get justice. I mean I know that some or most of us had issues that arose that caused us to have financial situations but it does not mean that we are not willing to rectify the situation but with someone reputable not a pressure jail threatening company that makes you feel like your life and well being are being threatened. I have paid over $2000 to this company and received my paperwork from the Florida Attorney General's office (Affidavit). I intend to proceed and get punative damages for the stress I felt due to this situation. I am not a deadbeat and neither are most of the people who have been mistreated by Ellis & Crosby. Everyone has difficult times that call for reputable companies to assist us in becoming financially clear.

I hope everyone does as I have done and that we will see justice. Thanks to all that assisted me in getting some satisfaction, now being rest assured that the money I paid went to the payday loans I owed and the return of the extra fees to my wallet would be great and would make me content.

Thank you for listening...

Hi gardnerjl

Welcome to the forums.

If you read the numerous posts in this forum, you will realize that representatives from Ellis Crosby have been trying to pressurize the people into paying quickly. Their main intention in doing so is that they want you to send the money without any documentation so that they are able to back up their claim against you. This is certainly illegal as per the law. Any company has to send a notice in writing whenever it is requested. You should always be alert and suspicious and lift up your red flag whenever you find any company refusing to send supporting documents of the original loan and the fees involved in it.

Regards

I know that you should always ask for documentation, I guess I learned a hard lesson. I have filled out my affidavit to forward to the Florida Attorney General's Office but will that really bring resolution to this situation? I am out tons of $$$ money that I never borrowed. I borrowed $300 at top most from several payday loan companies but no where near what I have paid to Ellis & Crosby. Anyone else forward the Affidavit and if so does it get you anywhere or is it a waste of time?

I hope that we all get our debts paid for the payday loans we took out and had circumstances arise that made it impossible for us to pay back on time but we intended to pay the bill just not with triple the amount due overnight or in the same day with threats of arrest and being harassed at work.

I am thankful that I found this website and for all those that assisted me.

Here is hoping that we all get back the extra $$$ we had to pay and that we will have the debts erased from our credit history.

Thanks everyone....

So, the first move should be to get an updated credit report from the three bureaus and determine the latest financial standing.

We also should save all the receipts, the correspondence letters etc. in safe place so that it can be easily available afterwards. We should also take legal help from the lawyers to make our case stronger.
