Happy Birthday, America. And to celebrate our 231st birthday, wouldn't it be great if we could do something to eliminate offshore PDL companies from doing business in this country? I realize that this is just the tip of the iceberg of the PDL problem in the USA but we need to start small. And getting the offshores would be a great step.
Look at what we can do as a community when we work together. Let's talk about Bass and Associates for example. We got the media involved--we emailed the reporter with our victim stories, a story was written and now a million-dollar suit has been filed against them! And I am convinced that if that story was never written, that lawsuit probably wouldn't have been filed.
So friends, fellow PDL refugees, what can we do here? We aren't going to reinvent the wheel, but maybe we can strike a small blow for decency.

Thanks! And how do we do this???? Ideas???

That is a monumental task.

You're right, Steelers, it certainly is--and it might boil down to one company at a time. Do we target one company, several, do we go to the media about it like we did with Bass??

I for one would LOVE to see this happen! It's a pretty daunting task, but I truly think if we just continue hammering away at these companies by reporting the illegal ones and complaining about the high rates of the legal ones, we will eventually emerge victorious!

So what if we target one offshore at a time??? And could I nominate Cashtoday as the first one???? I hate those goons!!!!!!!! I would love to see them kicked out of Reno and have their butts kicked back to London!!!!!!

I would love to see Sonic, Paydayavenue, CTC, and whoever else they go by, disappear forever. They had the nerve to get rude with my payroll office when they were told I revoked the wage assignment.

I second the CashToday nomination. Let's kick some butt!

So two nominations for Cash Today and one for Sonic. Anybody else?

Count me out. I give enough of my time. I won't participate. But good luck to you guys, it is going to be a long tough road, these guys have attorneys.

I am with Brownsugar. Payday Avenue was very rude with my employer as well and would do things like call and tell me they got my email but they don't have access to respond to emails so they had to call me instead.......I hate them more than any other pdl company.

I hate them all!! I want them all gone! Anything I could do to help I would gladly do. Every little bit helps.

All of these are hateful and deserve to be kicked to the curb. Just because we pick one over another one to go after doesn't mean that they're not next, if you get my drift. They will ALL have their day, trust me.

When you do this, I think you should highlite that everyone is a victim here. I work and still struggled to pay, but what about the people on social security (SSI) some of them are not able to function mentally. They have no clue what they are getting into. should be against the law.
