Unfortunately i didn't read this until it was too late. I have taken out several ppl and the are draining me. I have gone so far as taking out one to pay the fees for another. I got in this mess when my daughter went to college and i needed money quick now i am suffering trying to find out how to get food and pay bills. My account is overdrawn and pay day is coming friday. I just can't do this anymore. I live in pa. Some of the companies i have loans with are ....
Paydayone
Paydayloanyes
Mycahsnow
Cashspot
Paydaymax
Paychacktoday
Loanpoint
Cashnetusa

Is there any help for me. I don't know what to do.


Pennsylvania allows an Internet based payday loan company to lend legally as long as it is licensed in any US State. They would need to follow the laws of the state they are licensed out of, not the state the consumer is in.

CashnetUSA is licensed, you will need to make paymetn arrangements with them.

I would deal with the licensed ones first!

I hope the information below will help you. :)
You are only obligated to pay back the principal amount you borrowed from an unlicensed/illegal Internet Payday Lender.

[quote]What should you do?
Close your account asap, if you are unable to close your account, go into your bank and ask to speak with the Branch Manager, tell him/her you need a hard debit block placed on your account immediately! Explain that you are revoking ACH authorizations from unlicensed/illegal companies, and have learned these companies are notorious for ignoring revocation, therefore it is important to BLOCK any withdrawal attempts on your account to protect your interest. This is your privilege, do not accept no for an answer. The following link will provide you important information regarding closing accounts. CLICK HERE

What next?
AFTER your account is secure send each pdl (the unlicensed and illegal) an email similar to THIS (please scroll down to locate letter template). Tailor this letter to your needs, and try to write it with the same basic concept in your own words. You will need to research and locate email addresses/physical addresses if you don't already have them, I suggest that you type the name of the pdl (example: "oneclickcash address") in the search box in the upper right hand corner of this forum. You may also search for addresses HERE at the Better Business Bureau.

File complaints: Most of the time, you can file a complaint online with the following, I encourage you to follow through with doing so, you will need to search the Internet for your state Attorney General's website, however, here are links to file complaints for the FTC, Online complaints: Federal Trade Commission., and the BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU.

Keep in mind that you may not receive a response for days, or even weeks, or, you may receive harassing and threatening phone calls. I have found the best way to deal with this is not to respond or reply, simply hang up.

Side note: If you have paid an illegal/unlicensed payday lender above and beyond the principal amount you borrowed, it might be a good idea to demand a refund and a paid in full letter/receipt. You may or may not get one or both. It still doesn't hurt to include that tidbit in your letter. :)[/quote]

Ok,I went to my bank to ask for the hard hold on the account and they told me they couldn't do that and that I would need to speak with the company to stop the transactions. I asked what other resources do i have and they said i can close the account. Should i do this?

as long as it's not negative you should be able to close it.make sure it can't be re-opened by pending debits.

I had this problem as well and found that there are debt consolidation agency's for payday loans. They only work with internet loan's though, no storefront loans. I went through Langehorne debt solutions. They were great. Another thing you could do is close your bank account & open another one so the debit's stop going through. Then they have to work with you via moneygram. Just tell them you no longer have a bank account & will have to make payments. Cashnet usa is really good about this. I am no familar with the other one"s. Good Luck!
