i was called on my job by a liz hart who informed me tht if i didn't have the money in by tommorrow,they was sending the info to universal fidelity to proceed with collections from my wages through the courts. this uf is located in texas where i am from and they have shady dealings as well. my question is can they do that and if not how to solve the issue because i don't have all of the money and ctc won't take nothing less. :?: :twisted:
CTC must give the actual standing of your loan account first. Most of the charges put by them are disputed and above the state laws. Without this information correctly given, they will not have a legal stand. Just make sure that you cover your base with all documentation. You need to have everything in writing for proving your actions.
Is there anyway you can report this fraudulent activity to your bank? They would do an investigation and most likely put the money back into your account.

I to am dealing with Cash Transfer Center. I sent them letters on Sept. 4th and 17th revoking the wage assignment and revoking my authority for them to stop debting my now closed checking account. They say I owe them $473.00, I told them that they violated Florida state laws and that I only owe them $165.00. I havent heard anything more from them. Is this the calm before the storm?
I really don't think Cash Transfer Center AKA Sonic payday has any legal reasons on the basis of which they will hold against you. There have been so many violations by them. I will say you should pay off the balance that you think is owed and get off their back. Don't give them room for anything against you.
This Sonic payday sure does have alot of dba's. I have a pdl through paydayavenue.com and I believe it is part of Sonic payday too. What a mess I closed the bank account they have access too, but I remember the debits would say Northway or Norway(something like that). I'll just be glad when the whole mess is done and over.
You are right brownsugar. I had a pdl through CTC and they debited my account under Northway, and they didn't debit one debit they did three debits at once, divided the principal in half then the third debit for the interest. I thought that was strange.
I just printed off my contract from Northway and it says, Northway Broker Limited dba Payday Avenue; it also goes on to say that they are conducting business in and incorporated under the laws of the Republic of Malta and duly licensed by the Malta Financial Services Authority. The heck with that crap; they're not licensed in the US!!!
Wow, this whole loan business is actually quite frightening! I just posted a blog somewhere (I'm sorry still trying to familiarize myself with this site)about Cashtransfercenters. Got myself in a mess, but I figure it was my own stupidity - I applied for the loans. But I'm thankful I found this site! I need to repair my account somehow. :-(
My employer got a letter from Cash Transfer Centers, Ltd, PO Box 1216 Oaks, PA for a wage assignment in behalf of Northway Financial Corporation Limited.
Saying I owed them 439.00 of which 29.00 was a NSF charge plus a broker fee and loan charge.
it said they have been in contact with me and letters sent out to me. They have my correct name and SSN. The thing is I never got a loan from them, I've never talked with them or received any mail from them and haven't had any bounced fees at my bank. My employer refused to send them any money after talking with me.
Here in North Carolina payday loans even over the internet if money is transfered to the state are illegal, I have never received money in any way from them. I called the number and told them that all they said was make a police report, but I don't want to give them any more information than they may have about me, they wanted me to send the police report to them. What can I do about this
