I need serious help with my payday loans, what is the law in nj to get out of these if you can't make the 2 week payments? I have loans that if i don't paydown the debt they just keep charging me the finance charge. What can you tell me about just closing my account and saying see ya to these people?

Can you give us more information as well, such as are you dealing with storefronts or with internet loans? How much was the original loan and how much have you paid? You probably are due a refund since payday loans seem to be illegal in NJ.

Also, as you said, you should close your bank account to prevent them from debiting your account. It's perhaps a good idea to open an account with a different bank because sometimes these places get a hold of new account info if you reopen at the same bank. I would also check with your bank to see what happens if they try to debit from a closed account...like will it force open the account again or not.
