I was told today by ameriloan that I can revoke my ACH authorization for payments, then they will submit a check to my for the full balance. Only after the check is returned NSF, can I make payment arrangements with them. They are illegal in my state. Is this correct?

Is your account still open? I am in the same boat. I believe an electronic check is the same thing but I am not sure maybe someone else would know.

In my case, I revoked their authorization and a few days later then put through a paper check with out my authorization, the amount was about $720 which was way more than I owed them. Luckily I disputed it with my bank and was able to get the funds back. I finally settled with them for $160 to $180 through the BBB

OMG I hope that does not happen to me!!!!! I have overpaid them almost double what I borrowed. How can they do that withou authorization? This whole pdl thing is a mess, I sure hope I survive it all. I sent them a C & D letter last night via email and they called me today. I am not in default yet, that will happen Friday. I am really scared.

Even if you overpaid them, according to their system you will still owe them something so once they get the notice that you are revoking their withdrawal rights, they will probably attempt the same thing. Thats why its a good idea to close the account before you send them any info, that way they will get nothing if they try.
I sent my notices about a week in advance. It took a few days before they called but at that time I had already reported them to all the appropriate agencies. I was stupid in the sense that I didn't close my account right away & tried to get away with the stops on the companies, but some managed to get through & I had to dispute them with the bank. Then I was advised by my bank that they changed their privacy policy guidelines & I had no choice but to close the account & open another one. I should have done that in the beginning, but live & learn.
You will get through this...there are some great people here on this website so if you ever need to vent, just do it...

I personally wouldn't trust ameriloan as far as I could throw them--and any agreements you get with them, be sure and get in writing. You have to look out for your own best interests as they're not going to do it, trust me.
