I had two internet pdl's which used a DBA of Westbury Ventures. I am sure the experts on the site, know the company I am talking about Very Happy

. Well after going back and forth with them for two months on the phone no less. I finally sent them the "letter" (Thanks Ashley2006). Since the people I was talking to on the phone did not believe pdl's are prohibited in my state. Today I get two emails letting me know not further collections activities will take place on this account. I respond that I would like pif letters, but will hold to the emails just in case.

Will someone please send me the "letter". I have two that are not licensed in my state. Also, where would I find a form letter to send to my state department of consumer protection to complain about these companies?

Debtfairy, The form letters for the Attorney Generals are available on their website. Consumer division. They ask questions and you just answer them. Simple. File those complaints. The more the better. KYSIDE38

I also recieved a phone call today from collection agency which just started working with Cash Supply. The agent was really nice and friendly. I explained that pdl's were illegal in my state and that I was in the process of filing a compliant with my state's AG. The agency had just started working with Cash Supply and did not know that the company was operating illegally in most states. The agent went to verify the information with her supervisor. Long story short, all I need to do is provide the company with my bank statement showing the amount paid to Cash Supply and the loan will be marked PIF. Will be sending that in tomorrow.
