Sounds good to me! I'll have to be ignorant and ask, however; if you get checks and deposit them into a checking account, is there any way this company could get your new bank account information from the deposit? (Hope not)

No, the lawsuit was filed by the Attorney General and they settled for I believe 5.2 million dollars - the check will be coming from the Better Business Bureau who is the administrator of the settlement

Go to the Better Business Bureau website and use the link contact us and ask a general question about the Telecash settlement - someone from the restitution department will respond and you can then ask your question - all I asked was the status of the settlement and what the amounts were for me.
Hope this helps

Hi All,
The response I received on 5/20 from the NY BBB: "There was a delay and we???re still waiting on an update for the amounts and when the checks will be going out."

Yay for you !!

That's FANTASTIC!! Did they give you any breakdown as to how they arrived at that figure? Was that howmuch they figured you overpaid them? Just curious...
I got reimbursed too
I too got a check back from the State of NY from Choice Cash and Telecash for over $3,000!!!
I was shocked!
I thought a couple of hundred, but I didn't know that much. I had to pinch myself. I didn't know there were others in the same place I was.
I didn't know the PayDay loans were illegal in NYC until I went to this fantastic site. I stopped payment on my payday loans because I was swamped and couldn't pay my rent or any bills.
Right now, I'm trying to get debt settlements from all the credit cards I owe. I want them to settle in full, but they don't want to say that.
Well, that's one big win for consumers. I wish NYS would go after these other illegal Payday loan companies.
Well, Folks. so happy for you but very disappointed in my $450
Well, Folks. so happy for you but very disappointed in my $450 check. I had sooooo many loans out w/County Bank of Rehoboth that I was anticipating more. Did you folks have many or long standing loans. I'd love to know how this was calculated. I am grateful for what I got, but honestly disappointed. Was looking forward to paying down debt!
6/16/10 no check yet; anybody else having a problem
