Hi everyone, I need some help. I need to file a BBB report on The LOan Shop. I have paid them $520 on a $400 loan, sent them the "PIF Letter" and the "C&D Letter" via email and I am still getting rude and threatening phone calls. I searched in the search box on this site and found it mentioned they are in delaware, but couldn't find an actual address. Does anyone know their address? I know the phone is 866-669-3430. Also, when filing the BBB complain do I complain about the harrassment or just the illegal loan? I'm new to the BBB complaints. Any advice would be appreciated. THANKS!

I would complain about both and also file with your state attorney general and also there AG as well. And also the FTC. You might want to get an NACA attorney and sue them for harrassment as well. Most states have laws to protect you against those sorts of things. Many lawyers will take those cases on contingency!

Also notify them that they owe you a refund for overpaying on the loan. If you tell them you notified your AG's office, filed the complant with the BBB, FTC you will probably woll get the refund and your loand marked "Paid in full"I received from them a large refund last year. You might want to try it.

They are also known as Westbury Ventures and Northbay Ventures. I too have been dealing with them harrassing me. His name is Kenneth Combs, once he sent me an email, I kept sending about 50 times my cease and desist letter and that I was filing with the NJ AG and BBB. I have not heard from him now in almost 2 weeks. I did google the Loan Shop/aka Westbury ventures and a lot came up on this company. There is a website that was created for a lawsuit against this company, it is westburyventuresscam.com and most of the names that cannr mentioned all is listed on this site.

I had overpaid $960 to the loan shop and when I sent the letter via email they came back with refund of $300 I said I wanted at least $500 and it to be sent via fedex. I received it within 2 days. Here is the email address of the person that offered me the settlement wmashburn(at)ltsmanagement.com I would send the letter directly to that email address.
Kolodin.....I tried westburyventurescam.com and they never responded to me. Did you try to contact them?

This thread makes me wonder a little bit. I had a $300 loan with Loan Shop. I paid them $540 myself, and only today found out my dad (who was listed as a reference) had paid them $370 to make them go away, bringing it up to a total of $910 on the $300 loan. I'm wondering if I should go after them for a refund. Not so much for the extra money I paid, but to get my dad's money back.
Or do I just let sleeping dogs lie?

Did you get anything saying it was paid in full? I guess I would say go ahead and try it can't hurt.

I never received any sort of PIF letter from them since I didn't even know they'd been bought off. They "went away" about a month before I found this site.

If I were in your situation I would send the letter. After reading things on this website I see that they like to hide and then come back. If you do not have anything saying it is paid in full I would try to get it and it would not hurt to ask for the refund. This is just my opinion though.

MJM No never received a reply back to my email from westburyventuresscams. I sent several to that mannie on the website. I have not heard back from The Loan Shop but I am pretty sure from what I have read about them that they will be back. I believe they are operating out of the country, even though they have addresses listed in Delaware, has anyone heard of another address. Most of their names that were listed on my old bank statements were Canadian, for example The Loan Shop-Alberta, The Loan Shop-Viking(Northbay Ventures), etc. a woman by the name of Lapanda Mason I called at one time and you know that beep and the weird ring you get when its out of the US, has anyone heard that they might be out of the US? Thanks
