What can I do? Are these loans legal in Ca? Can I only be required to pay the priciple loan amounts on the Zip 19 loans and be considered paid on the others since the priciple and them some have been paid? Has anyone had any success dealing with any of these companiies? Thanks

I sent them my original C&D again and reminding them of the facts. I hve heard back yet. Is this usual response?
Yes, this is the usual response you will get from these illegal
Yes, this is the usual response you will get from these illegal lenders. Tell them that you are not a resident of Delaware and so, not guided by it's laws. Your state law prevails.
It is normal that the lenders locked you out of your accounts. T
It is normal that the lenders locked you out of your accounts. The prevailing theory is that this way you can't access your loan documents, payment record etc. to provide to the regulatory authorities you may be in contact with. As far as Eastside - not sure what that means as I have never dealt with them.

Update; Haven't heard anything back from anyone. Was able to log into Eastside today and the summary page says my account is active and has a 375 bal. I am guessing it os because they tried to process payment today. I do not know what happened with any of the PDL payments that were to be paid today. I closed my bank account. I am a little nervouse about Zip 19 as these were 14 day loans to be paid in full today. I never paid anything on them. I will of course make other arrangements to pay off the principle but I can't pay it all at once.
I feel torn. I am relieved that I had closed my bank account and do not have to deal with paying my bank over draft fees etc. but, I feel guilty and a little scared that I have done something wrong. What a nightmare. I never did this withthe intention of not paying back. I thought I could handle it and needed to keep my electricity on and a roof over my childrens heads. I hope I have done the right thing.

screwedinaz's comment has me thinking. I had the forethought to print copies of my loan history with DiscountAdvances and PayDayIsland. There wasn't really much for me to print from Ameriloan. Maybe we should add the advice to the sticky thread that people should print off any information regarding loan history from their illegal lenders before sending the C&D letter so when they get locked out of their accounts, they still have that information if it is necessary to provide it to the BBB, AG or FTC?

I unfortunately got in the payday loan cycle (7 internet and 2 storefront). I am very glad that when I first took out the internet loans, I printed copies of all the Agreements. Since all 7 of the are illegal to do business in my State, the Attorney General's office was very thankful that I was able to provide them with the contracts when I filed my complaints. Everyone should print out their Contracts.
I didn't think of printing out the contracts...maybe that's some
