So it all starts today.

Today I faxed and sent over a hard copy of my "Effective Immediately I hereby revoke any and all wage assignments I may or may not have signed" to both finance and human resources.

Finance calls me this afternoon and says "I don't know what this is" LOL

So I explained briefly . This company might try to send you something etc.

She said she will keep an eye out and notify me if she sees anything, but she handles all the garnishments and has never heard of a wage assignment. With 700 employees, I think that is a good sign!! Yay!

Off to the bank tomorrow to close my account!

Excellent! Very Happy

And you sent it to the PDL too right?

Not yet, not until after I close my bank account LOL But today was my "Friday" so I needed to get this done at work ASAP.

Good job! My HR also said that they just do not honor wage assignments unless they are fully legal and meet all the state stipulations.

There are acutally state laws that someone would have to follow when executing a wage assignment in order to make it legal.

I thought it was a great sign that she had never of them before LOL

What state are you in Tiffer? I can tell you if they are legal or not in your state . . . . Not that it really matters though, since it sounds like your employer wouldn't honor them anyways.

I am in Florida, I think someone on here told me they were illegal here, but I couldn't find anything about them in the statute book or at work.

I was going to also give the bank a letter, just to CMA.

Is this good? Or should verbal be ok??

Effective immidiately, due to illegal transactions against my checking account, I request a hard debit block on my checking account and savings account # $$$$$.

Any EFT transactions, ACH withdrawals, paper or paperless checks are not permitted to be presented or paid.

Thank you

I love my bank Sad

I closed my account, explained briefly to her and she said nothing will re-open my account. These people will get a thing sent to them saying account is closed.

I did open up another savings account there but we are waiting awhile before I do another checking account there, just to be safe.

She said if I opened up another account there is no way these people can get a hold of it, unless I give them the number.

I just sen my first email out a few minutes ago to oneclickcash. I could not find a physical address for them so I emailed it, sent a copy via thier customer service window on thier website and will also be faxing a copy tomorrow..

Let the headaches begin LOL

I think that was me that told you they were illegal in Florida! Embarassed

My mind is a bit slow this week.

WOW that was quick,

here is the email I got back from oneclickcash:

Your first due date is scheduled for 2/1. We will debit the $60 service
charge unless you request to pay in full or pay down towards the
principle.

LMAO According to my account, they are supposed to be debiting $125 this friday, I dont know where she got 60 from. I replied with a copy and paste from my original letter.

These people are so dense! Keep sending them the same letter over and over. I think it was Gouda that said she just kept resending until they told her to stop harrasing them LOL. Nice reversal for a change.
