Payday Loan News

That story about the check n go employees gives a little more information that the one I found a few nights ago on one of the local news websites when I couldnt sleep and was looking at different news stories online.

Well it's nice to know that those employees have come forward to reveal what actually takes place in that establishment :lol: .

Good for them :lol: . These loan sharks need to be booted out :twisted: .

Thanks for the info, Goudah--but I wish I could say I was surprised re Checkngo. This just gets sleazier and sleazier, doesn't it? And let's monitor the results of the election in DC this week. It should be very interesting to see!

I love goudah, the research queen! Thank you, goudah! You always have such good information for everyone! :wink:

Yes, she does, Cannr!! And the reason this DC election is going to be interesting, is because it could forcast a possible nationwide trend, I feel. We need to stay tuned!

Thanks Goudah! What great info- I will be keeping my eye out too! Everyone needs to send their state representatives this, and other info about pdls. I had sent mine info on pdls, and also info from my experience about collection agencies and their practices. If they know this info- they can be prepared when they go to Senate.

The more people that send this type of info, the better. I am hoping this will catch on in every state, and they will follow suit like DC!! Maybe if this goes through, other city councils will look into this!!KAren :D

This passed!

But Check n Go is now suing the guy mentioned in the article.

Furthermore, Check ???????n Go wants to brand Donovan a criminal who can????????t be trusted. The payday loan lender claims that Donovan has ???????multiple felony convictions,??????? and applied for his past cash advance loan store job with a fraudulent social security number. Also, the fast cash loan company claims that Donovan broke confidentiality agreements, eavesdropped to attain confidential trade secrets, and breached fiduciary duty. Donovan denies all allegations.

Sooo, they hired a convicted felon with a fradulent ssn? Way to go!

Great article goudah!

I'm sorry. I thought that was a requirement for all pdl employees. :shock:

LOL!! Yea, and now they are complaining about it! Heck, everyone has morals at some point!

Nice attempt to advert their wrong doing by trying to ruin the rep of an ex employee. I particulary enjoyed 'Donovan broke confidentialily agreements, eavesdropped to attain confidental trade secrets'. Their upset because the man woke up one morning and realized he had a conscience ! Repeat after me SMEAR CAMPAIGN!
Eventually they even turn against their own.

Isn't there a whistleblower law that protects employees who inform on their employers when the employer is in the wrong? I know it applies to the big tobacco companies, etc....why doesn't the same apply to PDL companies? CheckNGo is a legal entity - they should face the same penalties for suing a whistleblower as a large tobacco corporation. :evil:

I think this fight has just begun and we will not hear the last of this for a long time to come. I am just glad that I won my battle with them which I could not have done if it was not for this site and its awsome members. I thank each and everyone of you and I look forward to helping others here as you all have helped me for a long time.

I agree. I think we have a long way to go, but I also think that we have made a lot of progress. People are seeing now how devastating payday loans can be..And it has come to the attention of important people. I really think this site has had a hand in it!

No doubt about it finsfan13, we are there.

Sue - It sounds like they are trying to claim that the ex employee was lying . . . . . I'd think the whistle blower law would apply here too, but the companies would have to have some sort of recourse IF the employee was lying, which I doubt is the case here . . . . They are just trying to intimidate this ex employee like they intimidate their customers!

So in other words, now they've come to Jesus???? Mannnnnnnn
