I have a few payday loans and was wondering if any of them are illegal in TX...AdvanceAmerica, ACE Cash Express, PayDay Advance(Cash America), and EZ Money. Thank you in advance for any help you can offer


Well some of these companies are registered in Texas as Credit Service Organizations. Meaning they can take you to small claims court and pursue a judgment.

Have you spoken to the store manager at Ace? If they are still being jerks what I suggest you do is call Ace Cash corporate offices and explain your situation. maybe you can work out a reasonable repayment plan.

EZ Money has already put it on my credit, so I didn't plan on paying them at all.


Did they report it as a collection account or civil judgment?

EZ Money put it on there as a collection account, and I just found that out last night.The thing that gets me is that EZ Money NEVER sent me anything about what I owed or any fees associated with it. The store I got the loan from was not willing to work anything out, and their corp office only called me a couple times. As far as ACE is concerned corp are the ones being rude and hanging up on me. I have talked to about 5 different people and have had the same result with all of them. At this point I'm so frusterated with the treatment I hace received that I don't want to pay them either.

Is this a finance charge applied to the loan?

And as for Ace, all I can say is continue to call and maybe you will reach an reasonable associate. if they refuse to accept any form of repayment versus the full balance then atleast you tried. Even try sending then small monthly payments if possible.

Reason being this will favorable to the judge if you are taken to court. The fact you attempted a resolution with this company.

Are JellyRoll, CMG,Easycash Online, Loan point, Star Cash, Cashnet, CAshCentral (all of these were on the internet) legal in Texas? They are charging some ridicules repayment amounts for example:
Easy-$460.00 for a $300.00 loan
JellyRoll -$570.00 for a $300.00 loan
I had to close my account because I could not handle the NSF fees...so what can I do???
I tried to email each and set up payment arrangements and Cash Central, Cashnet, StarCash and JellyRoll all responded. I want to do the right thing and pay the debt back but I can't pay each one back $100.00 to $150.00 each. So I am going to make efforts to pay back the loans but not what they are asking for...will I get in trouble for that???
