GFSIL Payday loan company - real people discussing

Sarah-at least you can now pay your rent and car payment right? Its depressing but at least you are getting the basic needs taken care of

Sarah-congrats. You are making a lot of progress in a really short time! I am happy for you

Thanks - both of you, and yes, it's AWESOME being able to keep the car insurance on the car -- Last month I couldn't pay it (OUCH!) -- but now I CAN! WOOO!

these people call and call even though I have paid off my loan. When you tell them to cease calling they just call back and I mean 8 times in a row. I have them making electronic checks I never okayed in 3 different company names as well as ach debits crooked people.

I previously received a $200 loan with GFSIL, after extending it so often meaning twice a month for 2 months, I went to pay the bill off as they were calling constantly. The amount due was over $500 but as I called left messages and faxed a guy called me and said that I could settle for $100.00.

Ok how much did your $200 loan end up costing you? Just curious....

OK. I keep getting calls from this phone number 1-877-280-2343 and I have asked numerous times to be removed from their calling lists. They claim I applied for a payday loan advance (which I did not). Today, after receiving three calls from them, I called back and asked for a manager, the woman hung up on me. I called back, advised I wanted a manager because the last woman hung up on me, she said "like this?" and then hung up. These people are harassing me, and I don't even have an account with them!!!! Does anyone have any information on them...I can't seem to find anything on the internet.

GFSIL...they are one of the biggest scams in the world. File a complaint with the AG in your state...that was the only way I got them to leave me the heck alone! Also file a complaint with the FTC...if you do not have an account with them then they making unwanted solicitation....Here is their US address(dont know what good it will do you) 1005 Terminal way Suite 110 Reno NV 89502
Fax 877-280-2330 Another phone number is 877-283-2337

I have had the same problems with them. I got a loan but someone gained access to my account and I closed it. I told them but they kept charging my account making my amount with them go higher because of returned payment. They started calling me everyday at work yelling at me telling me I need to pay then hang up in my face.

These people suck. But since filing a complaint with the BBB of Nevada. I found out the following:

That is great news. They still call me all day every day. Luckily I have caller ID on all my phones. So I don't answer. I just hope they get harrassed enough by all the various govt agencies that someday they disappear.

I too have a loan with GFSIL, but the thing with me is that they have been taking out two payments from not only GFSIL but also GFS which I didn't know that it was the same place. I also called and got hung up on numerous times and the thing with me is I have a bad temper, so you should know how that went now they are trying to take money from my account and I tried to close it but my bank won't let me so when a payment comes through my bank rejects it and I feel the same way I thought that those fees went towards that loan, but they don't. I'm going to talk to my bank again and close the account and they have no choice but to send it too collections, but by then at least I will have some type of documentation

GFSIL and GFS are the same company...they have numerous other DBA's as well....

So I haven't gotten a call or payments taken out of my account in almost two months... I am super excited to be done with them.
But the better news is I received a letter from the Dept. of Business and Industry Nevada Consumer Affairs Division that states that GFS has fined for unlicensed lending in the United States! And they have sent my information to the FTC to be reviewed. So for anyone who still has a loan with this company, contact the BBB, the FTC, your attorney general... The letter states that they have received numerous complaints regarding GFS. So file a complaint because this is proof that it is being heard and taken seriously!
Oh yeah... GFS also does business as Cash Today, Cash Today Commercial, Cash Today Factoring, Global Cash Advances... so if you get calls from any of these companies, do not do business with them.

Yes...do file complaints with the FTC....They tried contacting me yesterday but we played phonetag so I am gonna get a hold of them Monday because I know they want to discuss GFSIL with me!

That is great news!! But something I want to know is, if the FTC gets involved and bans these places from the US (and I say high time, lol...) why is it that different states can have different laws re PDL's?? I mean, another offshore, Sonic, is banned in California but not in other states. Why can't the FTC just ban all offshores?
