Help PDL problems in VA

Hi, single mom! :D First off, I'm going to post your state pdl law for us all to see. You reside in VA and these are all storefronts, correct? Have you defaulted on any of them yet? I can check to see which ones are members of the CFSA. The ones that are, you can invoke the EPP (extended payment plan) if you have not yet defaulted.

Hi Single Mom- I just want to say welcome to the community! You are in a great place now with wonderful people. Keep your head up things will get better!

I know for sure that Quik Cash, Checksmart, Advance America, and Check 'n Go are members of the CFSA.

If 1st Choice is "First Choice Cash Advance", they are a member of the CFSA.

I do not show ACE Cash Express as a member. And not showing Cash-2-Go of VA as a member.

Ace Cash Express is a member of FISCA. FISCA members are required to offer extended payment plans to their consumers.

Hope all this information helps you out! ^_^

Thanks, Amaranth! Are they listed under a different name on the CFSA list? Like a "corporate name"?

Hmmm....I dunno. I have come across a few companies that are members of both CFSA and FISCA. However, as far as I have found, Ace is only a member of FISCA.

I checked the CFSA website. I do not see Ace on there at all. Unless they are using a "corporate name", which wouldn't be uncommon. Like, for example, Quik Cash is a member, but their name on the CFSA list is QC Holdings, Inc.
