Unfortunately, I have several outstanding payday loans. Is there anything I can do to simply pay the principal balance and avoid the additional fees? I live in Illinois.

I am in the process of taking my life back from PDL's and so far I have been doing ok. However, today I received a phone call at work from a woman who stated she was from United and was going to have me served with papers. The loans in question are from Huskhawk Group and WTJ Capital. The total due for both loans is $625, and I have already paid almost $300 before I revoked ACH priveledges. I live in NC and now know that these loans are illegal. She stated that my total balance is $925 and I must pay it off in two payments by using my debit or credit card.

Hello,

My brother received a mail to my house and we have looked at it - it's not a letter from the court but either a pink or yellow slip letter claiming he is being sued by Cach Llc. It now does have the Case # (the original letter didn't) along with wanting him to contact this "firm" which has a terrible basic website, and I cannot find anything online regarding them. I figure something is shady, but I cannot ignore it if it will affect my brother.

The problem is he is unemployed (has been for quite a while) and does not live with me. How can we look into this?

I have just received the most disturbing call...my ex husband of all people just called and said that he received a phone call from a debt collection company looking for me.  Said they talked very fast - so much so that he couldn't understand what they were saying. He gave them my phone numbers (thanks a lot) and I received 2 phone calls from them - cell phone and home phone.
