They are already trying to jack up a $200 loan to $1500 then he says money gram only. He was literally screaming at me on the phone. I told him to call my HR and sue me but he just continued screaming at me. I am contacting the NVAG & the IL AG (they are NV and I am IL). Any other advice? I told him I would pay the $280 I originally owed. He went on about this being over a year old, they don't take anything except money gram, etc.


It's B.I.G.. I am in the process of cleaning up all my credit. This guy refused to give me his address but I found one. I know that if I start paying and they still choose to sue me a judge will understand. I am on the Nevada Division of Financial Institutions site and they aren't listed in any of their "forms".

I have no problem paying the $280 but not a dime more.

BIG is located in the United Kingdom with a mail drop in Nevada. They are a totally illegal operation and use Indian and Pakistani immigrants to do their collections. Do not listen to anything they say. They can't sue you or come after you. They will threaten you and say practically anything. The only way to deal with them is to keep hanging up on them. They will go away for a while and then come back again. If you speak to them they get encouraged and will keep after you. Send a money order to their Nevada address via certified mail and mark on it that accepting it makes your account paid in full. That is if you have not paid them already. They are impossible!

mrhender, all BIG is going to do is harrass you over the telephone. They have no LEGAL recourse to collect this money, as they are so friggin illegal it's not even funny. BIG isn't going to do crap like turn you over to anyone, investigate anything, or any other hoopla they tell you. They are horrible, horrible, horrible. And they can stick their Money Gram up their butt. Only pay the principle amount of $200, as frog advised. And BIG can consider themselves damn lucky to get that back. Do you need a mailing address to send it to? They're not going to be happy no matter what you pay. They will scream if you pay the principle, they will scream if you pay more than that, they will scream no matter what. They are not going to be happy, believe me. So, if you want, just send them the $200 they deposited into your account, save your records, and tell them to blow off next time they call you.

MOST PDL's, you can get on line. They ask for your bank account, etc. WHY in the world, would they ask you to send it by Money Gram? I'm assuming they have your bank account. Or....was this a 'store' PDL??
