|

|
I had a great conversation with Attorney Arthur Levy, who is working on the class action lawsuit against Cashcall in California. I also invited him to visit the forums, which I certainly hope he does and welcome him.
Here is what I can say on the lawsuit in a nutshell from Arthur: it is being filed in Los Angeles County and concerns CC's lending practices, specifically interest rates, fees and CC's practice of debiting on days that weren't agreed on by the consumer. Also they are looking at CC's charging bounced check fees that are higher than California state law allows. And more importantly, they are working to see that Cashcall doesn't engage in harassing activities.
Arthur agreed to let me give his contact information, but wants it in a PM to individuals, due to the volume of calls he could get.
He said that he would be willing to help if someone is facing an extreme situation with CC right now.
I told him that I am ready to sign on in the battle and know that many other members of the community would too!

KS, I am glad you were able to get ahold of him. Right now I wish I was in CA. I was just happy that he offered to help me locate someone in my state. It does feel good when there may be a light at the end of the tunnel.

Amen, Roxy. And btw, thanks for giving me Arthur's information, I really appreciate it! I'm going to fire off my C and D letter to CC now per his instructions and let's see how long it takes before they violate it, lol...

That is awesome! I was really curious about what angle they were going to fight them with, so this is wonderful information!
Take 'em down for good!

cab, right now that law suit is only for Calif. residents. I e-mailed the attorney from a thread on here and he offered to help me find someone locally. If you want the info, pm me and I will pass it on. Roxy

YES! I hope to see this horrible company go down in flames. (Not literally, of course, God forbid someone think I was threatening them...that might be a little too much like what they do to their clients!)
I don't have, and never had a CashCall loan. I just know from all the horror stories on our site (and others - check out ripoffreport.com) that they have a terrible reputation with the general public.

Quick update: I sent out my C and D letter and 1 day letter got another call from them. I had also spelled out in my letter my repayment schedule for this month. When I called CC back to blast them, the letter was in my file and the rep I spoke with literally yes, Maamed me all over the place. He agreed with everything I said and actually apologized for the harassment I had gotten over the phone. I actually told him that it was phone terrorism and asked him how many times a caller had to tell a CC rep something before it stuck.
The upshot is that we agreed that CC would act professionally towards me and I would not tolerate any more rudeness from them over the phone. Now we shall see what happens next, right?
