I have really gotten myself in deep. Me and my husband were really going through some hard times and we borrowed money from several payday loan places. We have about 9 pdl out in our name now. Some of them we paid on as long as we could and a couple of the others we werent able to make any payments on. they are calling and constantly harrasing us. We are really scared and dont know what to do. We have other bills that weve fallen behind on, and have considered filling for Bankruptcy. We live in NC and took a couple of loans out over the internet. I dont even know how to find those places, as our bank acct. has been closed due to overdrafts. We are in over our heads and dont know what to do. I will take any help or suggestions anyone has. Please no critsim I know it was wrong and stupid to do, now were paying for it. What can they do to us?? Would bankruptcy be our best option ?? Can we go to jail for this ?? Ive been to scared to call the ones I do know, b/c when i have called before they are demanding money, that we just dont have. We are struggling just to pay our monthly bills right now. Thanks for any advice you have.


I believe that PDL's are illegal in NC...Here is what we need from you: Who did you borrow from? How much did you borrow from each company? How much have you paid to each company? NO YOU CANNOT GO TO JAIL FOR PDL'S...and no one here is going to judge you...I am in the same situation and if you answer my questions eitehr myself or another member can help you with this problem.

Flutter ~ I am in NC. Pdls are prohibited in NC. What you need to do is get out all your old bank statements and if you don't have them, even if your bank account is closed, the bank should still be able to get you copies.

If you have any old email address from any of these places, do not delete them for they will come in handy.

Make a list of each pdl that you have, how much you borrowed and how much you have paid. This will give you an idea how much you have paid toward the principal.

Are they still trying to debit your old account? Do you have another account opened that they are debiting? If they do not have any of your new account information, do not give it to them!!!

Let's start here...get this information together and we will go from there. Understand there is nothing they can do to you other than maybe turn you over to one of their collection agencies, but that is about it. You cannot go to jail or anything like that. These people are not licensed in the state of NC so they are operating illegally.

I am not going to overwhelm you with stuff, just take it one step at a time. Take a deep breath!!! It is going to be ok. Don't feel stupid or dumb because we had 6 pdls. It happens and most of us here have been there and some still are, but hey, things are better for us then they were. I will keep an eye out here for your information.

Hang in there
