We have two outstanding payday loans out, one with Instant Cash USA, and one with Apple Payday. We have had apple payday loans in the past and have had no problems with them other than the outrageous interest. WE took out a $200 loan with Instant Cash USA and have made 4 payments of $60 each, interest only. We missed one or two payments due to our account being garnished for local taxes. This past payday our account was debited with several authorized debits but also with one unauthorized debit to someone called MTE Financial for $110. I do not know who these people are, have never spoke to them on the phone, nor received mail from them. I have no loans in their name nor can I find them on the internet. I have gone to the bank and they contacted the electronic transfers dept who has no contact information for MTE and no idea who they are. Somehow MTE Financial obtained my banking info and made this transaction without our authorization. I filed an advidavit with the bank but do not know how to contact MTE and find out if they are legit. Please help.


We did not authorize MTE Financial to debit our acct. However, if it turns out that they are Instant Cash USA then we did authorize Instant Cash USA to debit our acct for $60 (interest only) every two weeks until we were able to pay off the principle. Our loan with them was received on August 31 and we have made four $60 payments since then. Our bank account was overdrawn and one of the payments didn't go through. We had no contact number to advise Instant Cash USA of the problem and then this week when our deposit was made we discovered that some company named MTE Financial took a $110 debit from our acct. While we did authorize Instant Cash USA we did not authorize MTE Financial. Are they actually the same company?

You need to go to the bank and tell them about MTE Financial. They have debited from your account you never authorized. They will be able to block the company from doing further debits. The company will call later after not getting the money. Then you will ask them for the real cause. First, block them from further debits and if you request your bank, they will dispute the charges with the company. If it's not verified, money will be put back into your account.

ACHDUDE, You have plenty of recourse the law is already on your side. Contact the AG office in your state immediately. Consumer division and file a complaint. Go to www.paydayloaninfo.org and get your laws and send it to these vultures. If you have paid back principal be done with it. No more. KYSIDE38

I work for a financial institution in New York where I am the ACH department. I am currently devising a plan to attempt to help my members escape the debt trap escalated by pdls. I am working with the lending department to offer pdl alternative microloans.

Do you think members with these pdls would be put off if I were to send letters to them informing them of the risks of pdls, giving them information and web sites (ie paydayloaninfo.org) and suggesting the institutions alternatives? I don't want to be intrusive, but I consistently have to close their checking accounts because of the negative balances they accumulate via fees and the inability to pay these loans off. I see numerous members stuck in this cycle of pdls and I just want to help.

ACHDude

Your intentions of helping people sound good. If you want to provide alternatives to people against payday loans, you have to keep certain points very clear. The payday loan companies are not following the terms properly because of which you find most people in problems.

You will need to mention each and every minute term in the contract. People are not shown the terms made by these loan companies in the proper way. That is the reason of so many disputes on interests and fees with pdl companies.

You have to charge the fees and interests according to the state where the borrower resides. This way, you can win the good trust of people and they will know that your offer is a legitimate one. Basically, you have to create a feeling in them that you are not going to scam them because of their bad credit.

Most people have the intentions to pay their debts back. But there are many companies around who want to take undue advantage of people because they are in their debts and because of bad credit. You have to be different from all so that you win their trust.

Financial problems can occur anytime. If you are willing to give extensions and have patience that you will get your money back from your client, you can think about doing this business.

Of course, we want to hear what you have to say in this. There should be an understanding between the consumer????????s point of view and you as a lender offering micro loans. Get everything clear before you put your money.
