How do you consolidate payday loans?Debt Consolidation is applicable mostly to internet payday loans (pdls), that is, those taken out from online lenders. Unless you default, you cannot consolidate payday loans. Here's a step by step approach on how to consolidate payday loans held by your creditors.
Should you consolidate payday loans sent to collections?If your internet payday loans are sent for collections and the collection agency (CA) calls you for repayment, here's what you should do:
How do you benefit if you consolidate payday loans?When you consolidate payday loans, you get similar benefits as in a debt consolidation program. Lower interest payments, reduced late fees and fewer payments instead of multiple bills are some of the advantages. For more details, check out the 8 benefits of debt consolidation. Are loans available for consolidation?There are lenders who offer debt consolidation loan to help you consolidate payday loans. But whether or not you can use it depends upon the payday loan balance you owe. Say if your debt amount is around $2500, you won't get a consolidation loan. Such loans are applicable to higher amount of outstanding debt. When should you go for Extended Payment Plan?If you've been dealing with storefront payday loans, there's the option to get an installment repayment plan or Extended Payment Plan (EPP) from the lender as per payday loan laws. However, the repayment plan applies only to 8 states such as Alaska, Alabama, Florida, Illinois, Michigan, Nevada, Oklahoma and Washington. The plan is offered by lenders when an account reaches the maximum number of rollovers allowed by the law and the debtor declares that he's unable to continue with the payments. In states, where the EPP does not apply to storefront payday advances, you can either consolidate payday loans or follow the steps to do it yourself debt management depending upon which is easier for you. |

Can I consolidate payday loans without turning them over to a collection agency? I don't have any defaults, but I'm not making any progress, just paying about $600 a month in interest.

Thanks for that information. I am going to call the company as soon as I am out of work to consolidate payday loans. I mean I needed them at first and I have just been consistently paying nothing but interest. I took on a second job to be able to pay them off and it just doens't seem to be getting anywhere. If you don't mind me asking how much did you owe and what were your payments like? I would just like to get a really quick ballpark. I have too many because I thought it would solve problems a while back, but I DID learn a lesson. I use to have 8 and now I am down to 6, but it still adds up. I know once I have them under control I can save up and not worry abouthaving to need cash again. Thanks for your response.

The consultant will call you up at the phone number you entered during your registration in this website for a free counseling and give a plan to consolidate payday loans. In my plan, I opted to clear the debt as fast as possible and also I have some available cash in my hand. So I opted to pay $200.
Yes, payday loans are not less than a drug and their aftermaths are brutal. |

I am in the same situation as you. I am interested to consolidate my payday loans as well. I did the same thing thinking that I could get ahead with taking out payday loans and now I am just trapped. I was paying about a 1000 a month in fees alone. I would like to get out of this whole and get ahead!!! thanks for the information.

I realized during this time that a proper negotiation is the thing that is most required to consolidate payday loans for getting rid of this problem. Thanks heaven, my consultant showed keen interest in negotiating with my creditors and I am able to feel the result of it.
Hopefully, I will be able to see the results of this hard work in my credit report very soon. |

I have recently looked at my cerdit report, I monitor it monthly, and I do not have any payday loans on my credit report. Does it effect it negatively or positively at all with consolidation? None are on my report. Only my credit cards, student loan and car loan on that report, which is good. Will it stay that way?

If there is a debt that does not belong to you and stays in your credit report thus, giving negative information, then it will hurt your credit ratings.
However, if a debt has not been reported by your creditors and they are making collection efforts, then you need to negotiate with them in order to settle it off. If the creditors fail to recover the debt from the consumers, they report to the bureaus and this will affect your credit ratings. An important tips to consolidate payday loans: Please make sure that you do all the needful negotiations with your creditors before it is reported to the credit bureaus.

I wanted to consolidate payday loans and even went so far to set up an appointment with a local agency. I held off and tried to apply for a mortage loan. I asked the lender would my credit be effected if I did so? They advised me it was worst then filing bankruptcy. I want a new home and I'm trying to clean my credit up, but at the same time I want to pay these loan sharks off. Especially Ellis Crosby and Associates (who are threating to lock me up tommorrow morning at 9am. after they embarass me by speaking to my supervisor). I also would like to know if this maybe grounds for a harassment suit?

I would like some help on what to do about my payday loans. I thought these loans would help me, they are my biggest mistake. Allen Lewis called and said he was from a federal agency and would go to the place of employment and spot me. When I asked him which federal agency, he became angry. Said I commited fraud. Now it is on my credit report as trying to commit credit fraud. Would payday loan consolidation help? How do you start? where do I call?

Hi aundreakendle
Please do not get tensed about the calls of Ellis Crosby. Their main intention is to scare you so that you start paying them hurriedly without a second thought. The FTC has issued some guidelines in the Federal and State laws for the consumers and we should feel stronger under this legal cover. No collection agency can harass you or threaten you with jail. Since Ellis Crosby has been involved in such atrocious acts, their business is in stake. As a result, they have become furious and are involved in all sorts of unfair activities. Please read the following content in the FTC link given below and use your consumer rights. http://www.ftc.gov/os/statutes/fdcpa/fdcpact.htm Waiting to hear from you.
