Well first off let me welcome you to the site. We have alot of knowledgable and helpful members here that can steer you in the right direction. First of all, please list the amount in just principal what you have borrowed and paid back and the names of the companies so we can see if they are registered in your state. You also need to send a revocation letter revoking any and all wage assignments that maybe in the small print of your contracts.
Someone that is familiar with your state laws will come along and post your pdl laws for you.
If the storefronts are legal they will and most likely sue you if you don't make any payment arrangements with them. See if they are members of the CFSA network, if they are they will let you set up payment arrangements as far as I know.
Good luck to you, you are well on your way of getting rid of the pdl's.

NO MORE, you really should send out a debt validation letter to AIS, as soon as possible. Keep in mind that all collection efforts must stop once you have sent that validation letter, they MUST validate this debt before they can proceed with collecting. If they do continue any collection efforts, that will make them in violation of the FDCPA. Here is a link for a sample letter you should send to them, you can alter it to your needs. Make sure you send this letter certified, return receipt requested, If you have their email address or fax number, I would send it to them that way also. Here is the link for that validation letter.
http://www.debtconsolidationcare.com/collection-agencies/better-struct ure.html
Here are the FDCPA laws regarding validation, you may want to send them a copy of this with your validation letter as well.
| Quote: | 9. Effect of including proof with first notice.
A debt collector must verify a disputed debt even if he has included proof of the debt with the first communication, because the section is intended to assist the consumer when a debt collector inadvertently contacts the [53 Fed. Reg. 50109] wrong consumer at the start of his collection efforts.
Up 10. Section 809(b) requires that, if the consumer disputes the debt or requests identification of the original creditor in writing, the collector must cease collection efforts until he verifies the debt and mails a response.
Up 11. Section 809(c) states that a consumer's failure to dispute the validity of a debt under this section may not be interpreted by a court as an admission of liability.
1. Pre-notice collection. A debt collector need not cease normal collection activities within the consumer's 30-day period to give notice of a dispute until he receives a notice from the consumer.
An attorney debt collector may take legal action within 30 days of sending the notice, regardless of whether the consumer disputes the debt.
If the consumer disputes the debt, the attorney may still take legal action but must cease collection efforts until verification is obtained and mailed to the consumer.
A debt collector may report a debt to a credit bureau within the 30-day notice period, before he receives a request for validation or a dispute notice from the consumer.
