I have been reading and have learned alot of helpful things here. Im in Ohio. Im am so far in debt it's ridiculous. I have an appointment with an attorney next week to possibly file bankruptcy. I have one payday loan with pay day ok. I took it out In januray 07 for $500. I keep extending and have had approx $570 depositied into my account(the original 500 and like 35 dollars or so twice) I have paid $875 and still owe the original 500!!! It sounds like Ohio law doesn't even allow rollovers to begin with. By the time I would file bankrupcy it wouldn't be for several months and I dont even have the pmt for the loan that is due this week. Would anyone be willing to email me a sample letter to send them to stop this pmt and try to get a PIF? BTW, i went on the payday OK site and theywant me to click ok to transfer this to their affiliate which is Payday1 and if I dont the loan has to be paid in full by Oct31. I dont want to click to agree because Im afraid they will say I was agreeing to the new loan terms, etc. please help [email]amyoung4@yahoo.com[/email]


amy, you are correct. Rollovers/extensions are prohibited in your state. Plus the fact that I do believe that your pdl is unlicensed (someone correct me if I am wrong). Do NOT click the button to transfer your loan. Leave it alone. Don't do anything. Is your bank account still open to where they are still able to debit it? I'm posting your Ohio law just for you to see with your own eyes. Okay? But let us know your bank account situation. These people will not stop debiting even if you do send them a letter revoking debit authorization. They will continue to debit as long as the account is open/active.

Don't agree to switch. That could very well cause you problems if you do file bankruptcy. The judge could look at it like you were taking a new loan, which you weren't. All you have to do is write a letter to them stating:
I revoke your right to debit any of my accounts as of this date. And quote ohio law.

You know what, pyb? When you go to a storefront for a pdl, one of the questions is "Do you plan on filing bk in the next (some time period)?" So I see what you're saying. They state it right on the loan papers at a storefront.

Good point pyb..yes, but I think El was asking if they HAD to be 90 days to be included. And they dont have to be...

But to your very good point, the judge will definitely frown upon new credit accounts right prior to a BK...some people go on shopping sprees and then try to file BK a month later before the payments are due.

I emailed payday OK last night and told them I revoke authorization to withdraw from my account. I stated what I have paid and what I had deposited from them. I also attached the OHIO laws I got on this great website :D Guess what I got already! A PIF!!!! I am sooooooo thankful to all of you that help people out here on this website. Payday OK actaully has list of things to mark for what your email is about- cancel my loan is one of their choices!!! Im am in sevetnh heaven right now!!!!!!!

I just cannot afford to pay this all off at once with their new policy. Is it the opinion that i should just send them the letter revoking their debiting power then? Any more advice would be helpful because there is no possible way i can pay this loan off all at once. thanks

Tom, what loan is it that you can't pay? With a little more information, we can help you here! :D Is it PaydayOK? Or another loan? Also, a PIF is "paid in full". Just post what loan is worrying you and we will help you.
