|
Hello my names Mohammed, I took out a loan of $300 and was paying web pay day back. They first called me last Tuesday and told me that if I don't pay them $160 I would have to go to court. I told them my current financial problems. I have no job right now, and my bank account was charged off for a long time of negative balance. I told them I want to pay them back asap, but I need to find a job first. They told me not possible, and that they need to post-date a check by Friday, or I go to court. They gave me threats of how I would have to pay thousands of dollars in legal cost and that their own legal fee's would have to be paid by me. I told them I need time to get a job and then they just hung up on me. Two days ago they called me and told me that I bounced a check over state lines for $160. They said I authorized a payment of $160 from my bank account. I told them again I have no accounts open, and they told me I need to get a attorney to represent myself. Today they called me I didn't pick up.

they have said they are calling me on behalf of web pay day and my balance with them. I have no job and they won't settle for small payments every month. By small I mean around $30 dollars a month, I am a college student. They are mean people all they want is the full $160. They told me to call people I know and ask for money, are they allowed to say such things?

Pay day loans are prohibited in NY...use the link Shazzers posted above, write them a letter telling you:
Not to call anymore
Tell them to validate the debt

I am also from NY.If you have already paid the principle back, then that is all you nee to pay them. Please file complaints with the bbb and the Ag . Please do nit stress over this and certainly do not pay them another dime. You have already filled your obligation according to NY law.
