My current messy situation is just beginning...here's the deal...
Ohio
Storefront
1st Choice Cash Advance...350 loan...52.50 interest paid twice for a total of 105
Check Into Cash...350 loan...paid 52.50 interest...then got 300 loan...paid 45 interest...then got 350 loan again today to pay another PDL off...
I think that was all the info you asked for up front...let me know if I missed anything.

I know what you mean
I am so glad I found this site too..It has been a blessing..I told myself the same thing..you tell yourself this is it and something comes up then you borrow again..but God as my witness I will never borrow from them again. They just pray on people like us..First step is to make sure you are never in that situation to begin with. Borrow from a family member or friend..I took the first step and closed my account and moved it to another bank. Sent them all Certified/Receipts letters..and some are working with me where I just pay once a month and my balance doesn't go up anymore..and I have one with Emerald Marketing which they are not..Jason.."a**hole" he has threaten to send me to the DA's office..which i filed a complaint with BBB..which I found out they have rap sheet a mile long.. you just do the best you can..I looked at what I spent a month is just refinance fees cause I have 8 loans out. It blew my mind..I has gotten me behind on my house note cause they take out their fees first..and I just said "no more" It has been nice to have some extra money on our paychecks to pay bills..Hang in there..
Hope this helped..
Take care,
