Well i been gone a while..military for you...but I am dealing with CTC now. I am enclosing an email i sent them. It is rather long and to this point in dealing with them its more out of frustration. They threatened me with court and all the normal stuff. Its just funny that when I asked for the court date they got all quiet then harped on me about paying my debts, blah blah blah. So i played the game and asked when they gonna pay my overcharged interest..but enough here is the big ole email
| Quote: | I revoke all wage assignments and revoke any access to my bank
account until some issues are resolved. You have overcharged me pursuant to
Oklahoma State Statute Title 59, which states can only be charge $15 per
100 loaned up to $300 then $10 per hundred from $400 to $500. There are also no rollovers allow in my state as well.

Maximum Loan Amount: $500
Loan Term: 12-45 days
Maximum Finance Rate and Fees: $15 per $100: $0- $300; $10 per $100: $301-$500
Finance Charge for 14-day $100 loan: $15
APR for 14-day $100 loan: 390%

Rollovers Permitted: None (cannot renew; a loan made within 13 days after a previous one was entered into shall be considered a renewal and shall not be made)

Also before you tell me that the loan is governed by the laws of the lenders state here is another statute for your reference:
Title 59. Professions and Occupations
Chapter 57 - Deferred Deposit Lending Act
Section 3103 - Scope of Act
Cite as: 59 O.S. § 3103 (OSCN 2007)
---------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------
A. The scope of this act shall not apply to a supervised lender licensed under the Uniform Consumer Credit Code. Further, nothing in this act shall modify, affect, alter, change or restrict practices or operations of supervised lenders under the Uniform Consumer Credit Code, rules of the Oklahoma Department of Consumer Credit or rules or interpretations of the Administrator of the Department of Consumer Credit.
B. Except as otherwise provided in subsection A of this section, the provisions of this act shall apply to all deferred deposit loans made; provided, the following lenders shall not be subject to the licensing requirements of this act:

C. The provisions of this act shall apply to transactions if the lender, wherever located, enters into the transaction with the debtor by mail, brochure, telephone, print, radio, television, Internet, or any other means.
Also you violated the follow statute:
Excerpt:
Title 59. Professions and Occupations
Chapter 57 - Deferred Deposit Lending Act

E. A lender shall provide the following notices in a prominent place on each deferred deposit loan agreement in at least twelve-point type:
"A deferred deposit loan is not intended to meet long-term financial needs. This loan should be used only to meet short-term cash needs."
"You have the right to rescind this deferred deposit loan no later than 5 p.m. of the next business day following this loan transaction."
"If you enter into a deferred deposit loan and three consecutive deferred deposit loans, you have the right to pay off the fourth loan pursuant to an installment payment plan, subject to certain conditions." You never provided me with any of this information
F. A lender shall post at the licensed location a notice of the charges, terms, and effective annual percentage rate for deferred deposit loans made by the lender.
H. At the time a debtor enters into a deferred deposit loan transaction, the lender shall provide the debtor with a pamphlet, approved by the Administrator of Consumer Credit, describing the availability of debt management and credit counseling services, the debtor’s right to an installment payment plan and the debtor’s rights and responsibilities in the transaction. The pamphlet shall indicate a toll-free telephone number for the Administrator that the debtor may contact to receive information relating to debt management and credit counseling services. Of course you didnt provide me with this information either.

15. Refuse the borrower’s right to enter into an installment payment plan, pursuant to this act I have tried and you have refused on multiple occassions and i have recorded the conversations.
Excerpt:

a. the lender’s own records, including both records maintained at the location where the loan is being applied for and records maintained at other locations that are owned and operated by the lender or the lender’s affiliates, and
b. any private database approved by the Administrator of Consumer Credit, if the lender subscribes to such a database; provided, all lenders shall be required to subscribe to such a database or otherwise obtain the required information in a manner approved by the Administrator not later than July 1, 2004. The lender may charge the applicant a fee for database verification not to exceed the actual fee charged to the lender by the database provider.
If the lender determines that the applicant has more than one outstanding deferred deposit loan, the loan applied for shall not be made.
Had you checked teletrack you would know that i already had two outstanding loans which i disclosed to you at time of application.
This is just FYI. And you have violated the provisions of this act.
Excerpt
Title 59. Professions and Occupations
Section 3115 - Investigation By Administrator - Notice and Hearing - Judicial Review

And last but not least
Title 59. Professions and Occupations
Section 3117 - Penalties

---------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------

The Administrator may also order repayment of unlawful or excessive fees charged to debtors.
As i have stated you overcharged me in fees.
Any further correspondence may be directed to the email address i am sending this from. I have paid excess interest and fees on this account. I request a statement corrected to account for the allowed fees under oklahoma state law and to work out a payment plan. Since to this point you refused a payment plan, overcharged interest, operated in oklahoma without a license, and overloaned what the law allows and in general grossly violated oklahoma statutes.
Contact me so this maybe resolved. Also pursuant to Oklahoma State Law you may
not ACH debit my account.

Thank you for posting this---they never know what to do when the customers kind of turn the tables on them and start questioning their operating procedures and practices. I bet they will be sending you a refund soon. Good luck!

They hang up because they can't threaten and harass. CTC is one of the worst companies around. This company needs to be shut down.
