TN Internet Payday Loans
Date: Mon, 07/20/2009 - 17:31
I live in TN and I have 7 internet loans. The bank wouldn't let me close my account because the payday loans have put my checking account in overdraft status and I was told I couldn't close it as long as it was in overdraft. However, I have opened another account somewhere else.
I know I need to pay back the principles but I need help on which ones are legal and illegal. I have already made payment arrangements with Paydayone since the first payment was returned. The rest are calling me at work and threatening me with wage garnishments and do not want to work out a payment plan.
Loans from Amount Loaned Amount Paid
Paydayone 500 Nothing
500fastcash 400 Nothing
Upfrontcash 300 90
Upfrontpayday 200 60
Oneclickcash 250 150
Sandpoint Capital 250 150
HUshhawk Group 250 75
I had it all planned out on when to pay which companies off but my father passed away after I got these loans and I needed to come up with some money to help bury him. So after the PDL wouldn't reschedule I ending up pulling the money out for his burial and letting them overdraft my account since they didn't have a three day notice and I just can't get back on track. Every little bit of information will help. Thanks in advance.
I am in TN also. The only one on your list that I had was PayDay
I am in TN also. The only one on your list that I had was PayDayOne and of course you know they are legal. TN is a loophole state meaning that pdl are legal as long as they are licensed in some US state. You can try searching each pdl name with TN in the search box on the top right of this page and should be able to get some info.
As far as the bank talk with them and see if they can freeze your account or put it on a hard block or something along those lines so that the pdls won't be able to OD it any further and you can work on getting your bank paid.
If you have'nt already, read the sticky on dealing with illegal pdl. There is a post 13 down in that thread that you can send to the illegal lenders adjusting for your situation.
Resqume is correct! First of all, I am so sorry about your Dad!
Resqume is correct! First of all, I am so sorry about your Dad! My prayers are for you tonight! Tennesee also allows up to 3 loans at a time for up to $500 each! Much more than most other states! Rollovers are not permitted but that does not appear to be your problem! You should try to block all withdrawals on your account and get your payroll dept. to issue you a live check which you can cash at the bank where it is issued! Then pay your bills by money order! You need to get your life back first! Take care of essentials! You come first! Sorry second! God comes first! Give a little from your heart! It helps a lot! There will be more than you had!
Update
Thank you frogpatch. I appreciate the support.
Okay. I made payment arrangements with Paydayone. They were easy to work with after I began emailing them. Instead of speaking with them on the phone. First the representative tried to get me to refinance. But I told him I couldn't afford to refinance and pay the interest charges. I need to be setup on a payment plan to settle the debt. So he was nice of enough to stop the interest charges, set me up with 4 payments starting in August.
This will give me enough time to get 500fastcash off my back. The first time I heard from them was today and they called me a billion times at work, at home, on my cell and they even called my references, supervisors and CEO of the company. That ticked me off. Fortunately they were understanding because of recent circumstances.
As soon as I got home I sent my letters to them. They want me to pay 800.00 for a 400.00 loan. I don't think so. If they respond and say they will settle for 400.00 I'm paying them this Friday.
Does anyone know anything about Redco? That is the collection company Huskhawk and Sandpoint claim they have sent my accounts.
Ok...we know PayDayOne is licensed & legal and you have already

500 FastCash is located at the same address as MTE Financial Services, Cash Advance Network, & Instant Cash USA. A subsequent BBB investigation determined that this address is the address for a Gambling Establishment and Smoke Shop operated by the Modoc Indian Tribe. During its investigation of these companies, BBB employees visited the locations as well as sent a certified letter to the Chief of the Tribe asking for further information regarding these companies. Employees of the smoke shop and/or gambling establishment informed a BBB employee that they were unaware of any details regarding these companies. BBB has not received a response from the Chief concerning this matter. At the present time, BBB does not know if these companies are operated by the Tribe, by employees or other people using the Tribe's addresses, or is a joint venture between the Tribe and a for-profit company.
The complaints against this company and others located at the same address generally allege the inability to pay off the requested loan, charges to the consumer's checking or credit card account despite never receiving the requested loan, or continued unauthorized charges to the consumer's credit card or checking account once the loan has been paid off.
BBB has determined that this company is not licensed in the state of Oklahoma to provide loans to consumers and does not appeare to be licensed in any of the states from which consumers have filed complaints with BBB. However, if the Modoc Indian Tribe actually operates this business, it may not be subject to state laws regulating this industry.

Wow, Thanks fatcat. That made it easy for me to decide were to start next.
Has anyone every heard of Redco? I did some research on them and couldn't find anything. I'm not too sure I want to call them just yet. I don't see them on my credit report. So I'm think it's a inside collection thing with Hushhawk and Sandpoint. I know they are sister companies.
"not legal or licensed"
Ok. So a payday loan company is "not legal or licensed". So how do you stop them from withdrawing from your checking account?

the only way to stop an illegal or unlicensed pdl from debiting your account is to close it. Sorry.
BBB
500fastcash responded to the BBB complaint saying
"Blah Blah Blah: this letter is copy and paste from the internet. Blah Blah Blah. Unless there is a valid concern blah blah blah." They also keep calling me after sending my letter to stop. Should I email MTE Financial and 500fastcash at the same time and tell them 400.00, by money order, to a physical address only, email me to confirm, no phone calls.
