I recently got a $500.00 payday loan from Loan Point USA. The past 2 pay periods they have taken $150 out of my checking account totaling $300 yet my balance is still $500.00 I live in RI and have another loan from United Cash Loans for $300 and they take $155.00 each pay period - I can't live like this anymore my rent is now due and since they took $305.00 between them I am short again.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you


Hi Guest,

Here is some info for Rhode Island. The only way to stop the companies from taking anymore of you money would be to close your account, but if either of your companies are licensed in another state, then they would be legal and you would need to work out an arrangement. I will check to see if they are legal for you.

Rhode Island allows internet pdl's that aren't physically located in RI to be licensed in another state.

Just spoke with the RI dept of banking again, to double check things. They told me that in RI, if a company wants to do payday loans, they must also be a check casher. They do not license internet payday loan companies, but the internet payday loan company must be licensed in another state to lend legally to RI consumers. Also, they must be following the laws of the state they are licensed in.
