I am negative $1000 in my account right now and I just found this site on Thursday evening. I need help! I am in a total panic and don't know where to start. I feel like I should close my account so that no further debits can be taken from my account. But I need advice on whether I should use Langhorne or do this myself. I feel very out of control!

Thank you for ANY advice!


Dear Rhondagibbs,

Welcome to our forum :)

It is so bad to hear that you have accumulated a debt of $1000 in your payday loan account. But first of all, every state has different laws on payday loan. So, please tell us in which state do you reside.

Again please tell us in which payday loans you have accumulated how much?

Regards,
Phoenix

rhonda -

Welcome to the forums! As mentioned above, we'll need to know what state you live in to help you out, but we also need to know the following:

-what companies you have loans with
-whether they are storefront or internet based
-how much you borrowed
-how much you have repaid (including all interest & fees)

Wait for just a bit before going with Langhorne - we may be able to help you with advice to get out of this on your own, depending on the legal status of your payday lenders.

Also, before you close your bank account, please read the info we have on doing that http://www.debtconsolidationcare.com/paydayloan/close-account.html

I think the payday loan system is great! Theres not a single person who doesn't have emergancy's and payday loans really help out.
There quick and easy and really do help.

rhonda,when you post your info also include
your bank's name.1000.00 in the red (whew) whether or not your pdl's are legal or not will determine your next move.

admin , that is so weak. Pay day loans are basically predatory lending. They prey on people who are in a financial bind and take advantage of them. That is why so many States are starting to ban these rip off loans.

And why oh why do you still have links to pay day loan places as you signature still after moderator cajunbulldog has told you to remove it?

Lukeskywalker I totally agree with you. I would give blood. Sell all my earthly belonging. and let my checking account take 5-10 NSfF @ $35 a pop before I EVER use a PDL again.

I cannot believe PDL and Admin said that ludicrous statement. How is $99 on a $200 loan 21 times GREAT! What would be great is a HUGE refund and PIF :D Instead you get you have the option to pay the whole thing in full next payday. Ya ok, not when you change your number, dont return calls, and change your d/b/a 3 times. :evil:

Dear Friends,

Payday loans do come handy at the time of urgency and especially if you dislike borrowing from relatives, friends and neighbors and that????????s too such a small amount.

But the problem regarding this is that for a payday loan, you are required to pay an interest rate to the tune of 10-15% for a period of 14 days only. I.e. if you take a payday loan whose interest rate is 10% for a period of 14 days then you have to pay an interest rate of 240% (approx.) on a yearly basis. To me it is too huge a burden.

Most of us fail to payoff this amount within the 14 day period and consequently fall into debt-trap. That????????s why most of the community members, who have actually seen this ordeal, prefer to term it as predatory.

Regards,

Phoenix

many thanks to 'admin' for clueing us in to their occupation. If you have something valuable and helpful to offer, please do. But please do not direct people who come here for help getting OUT of the PDL cycle to more payday lender links or advise them that PDL's are in any way 'good'.

IMHO, the only good PDL is a dead one. (And before anyone starts slinging mud at me, I mean a dead LOAN, not person.)
