Posted: Tue Oct 30, 2007 6:23 am Subject: Eastside Lenders has my new account info!!!!!
|
|
|
I just got an email from Eastside Lenders telling me I was approved for a $300 loan. I clicked on the loan documents to see what the hell was going on, and there is all my new banking info.
See, I still owe them $80. They agreed to settle with me and I haven't paid them back yet. I'm terrified now! I responded to their email and told them I did NOT solicit this loan and to remove my data from their system.
How in the world did they get this info. I've been so careful since opening this new account to not give the information out. I haven't applied for a loan, nor will I ever again.
Does anyone have a fax number for these people. I do at home...I want to fax them a copy of my email as well.
Sorry to ramble on. I'm in panick mode now!

Really, it's not that common for this to happen! I know way more people that have never been hit on their new account then those who have.
Ald ked - Do you write checks? Do any payments through ach? Bill pay?

Ok, this is real scary. I myself am fighting with Eastside Lenders right now on a $450 loan I have paid $337.50 on and owe $157.50. I spoke to them at the end of Sept and they said I owed $562.50 total to settle with them. I told them I live in Florida and gave them the laws on PDL's and of course they said they were in Delaware and go by their laws, blah, blah. I never heard back from them until the end of last week. Now it's someone else that says I owe $725 now. And she spouted of the Delaware thingy again. I haven't answered her on that one yet. But this is pretty scary that they are finding new account information and taking money from them. I have been lucky so far with my bank that anything that has come through they are refusing for me. I even had UsFastcash send a check through and it bounced cause I didn't have the money in there. I e-mailed my bank and they said if it happens again (to put a stop pay on a check they have to have the actual check number) all I have to do is fill out a form and fax it to them and they will have the money back into my account by end of day. This just sucks cause you pretty much have to watch your account 24/7 to make sure one of these idiots hasn't tried to get money. All of this PDL crap is such a headache. I've gotten so many e-mails (I even got a text message this morning) saying I'm approved for a loan and I just delete all of them. I'm never, ever going to get into this crap again. I'm just hoping it doesn't take me the rest of my life to get straightened out. I've only got two that are legit CashnetUsa and PaydayOne. I had worked out a payment plan with Cashnet, but I wasn't able to pay yesterday so I'm waiting for them to start raising cain. I just don't have the money right now to pay them. I haven't even talked to PaydayOne lately. I tried to get them to work with me on payments when I can get caught up and they refused to work with me.

Thanks roxy, that helps! I appreciate it!
Goudah, yes I do write checks and my auto insurance is automatically debited from my checking account. I'm thinking of not even opening a new account. I can use my future hubby's if I need to, I guess. It will be easier done that way, than this headache!!!

Okay, this is just a theory.
When you write checks at retailers, they normally run that check through some sort of software to make sure you don't have a history of bouncing checks. Most commonly SCAN or Telecheck.
CL Verify - The database compiler that payday loan companies use compiles data from SCAN and Chexsystems.
Chexsystems - If you open an account at a bank that checks this report, and inquiry will show on the report.
So, CL Verify can show the payday loan company several things. It would show them what bank you opened an account at if it was a chex using bank. Also, since it compiles information from SCAN, it's possible some of your check information is included. This information is only available to businesses, so I don't know how much they actually show the business, or what the business sees, but I would guess that they would get enough information to either debit your account with your ss# (some bank will allow a business to do so with a signed contract), or possibly got the actual account information. That's just my guess at this point, it's hard to say exactly how they got the info without a bunch more information.
