Thanks for spreading the word, Anthony. I guess most of the lenders are not following the proper guidelines of doing their business. That is why, they are amidst too many questions.
Most of the lending companies don't have a proper license to run their business. Besides, excessive charges done towards the loan account also adds towards their illegal activities. These activities should not go unreported. The attorney general's office in each area are there to protect the consumers. We must file our complaints when such incidences are reported and request immediate actions.
