After speaking with Dept. of Financial Institutions today I was encouraged to start contacting my state's representatives and senators to share my experience with internet pdls to draw attention to this practice and to ask for legislators to act on the matter, anyone from OH could you please pm me to share your experience,(horror stories/etc..) I would like to forward these experiences with my letters which I am going to forward to my representatives and hopefully this will be start in getting laws enacted to protect consumers in the future. Thank you.


Your move sounds right against the payday loan companies that are using illegal means of making money. Be advised with the State laws in Ohio for a better approach.

First and foremost, internet loan companies must be licensed in the borrower's state before lending. Most of them are try to surpass this legal part and hence violate the laws. The dept. of finance has the licensing info of the internet loan companies doing legitimate business. I wonder they might be a few/ none.
