Battle against online payday lenders in West Virginia

It seems the laws are clearly pointed out in West Virginia. Office of Attorney General has come to settlement with 18 IPDLs who have agreed to stop doing business in West Virginia.

10 of them have refunded $37,498 in unlawful fees which was paid by 83 consumers. The rest 8 are supposed to owe $6,000 to $8,000 and any settlement with them will help more than 300 consumers.

According to the NEWS source, West Virginia is the state where all the internet-based payday lenders must follow the Consumer Credit and Protection Act of the state. Such move on the part of AG is worth appreciation. We need more such actions against internet-based payday loan companies around the country.

Stanley isnt it great. I am from WV. This site has been so valuable to find information to file these complaints. I thinks my Attorney General deserves great appreciation. I just wish all other states would do the same. KYSIDE38

I sure hope Texas gets on board, along with the rest of the country!

Job well done Kyside!

You're relentless pursuit and HOURS of determination really is paying off! You are helping so many people! Now come on over to OH!!!! And let's stir things up here!!!!

can't wait to see the info posted on Michigan's progress on the PDL war front! Congrats Stanley on a job well done!

I hope Florida jumps on board too..

Good always wins the battle against Bad. I am sure all the states will enforce stricter and well-defined laws to protect consumers against PDL.

Wow, that's great, you guys are superb!!!

i have fsm so what should i say to them since i revoked on there conrtract i havve not heard from them yet but i know it is comming. the rest i am not sure because they may use different names.

i am reading through the list you placed payday select is one of my companies too so i see to that i have because i am in ill will they refund me too or will they just stop bothering me.

Laverne in West Virginia payday loans are illegal.. That is why the Attorney General is getting back refunds. This goes state by state. If it is legal in a state it is harder to shut them down. Hope this helps. KYSIDE38

Laverne click on this link it will tell you Ill. pdl law , they are legal in your state but they have to be licensed to lend in your state. They are illegal in WV but not Ill.

In his pursuit of the illegal internet PDL's. There are a few companies who have not responded to subpoenas. He did ask for the court to find them in contempt and fine each $ 5000.00 a day until they complied.
Any word on whether these companies have complied yet? I checked his AG web site & didnt see any new info.
