Need some good sound financial advice...

12 years 9 months ago
I live in Reno, NV and I think I really screwed up this time. I took out a $10,000.00 loan with Western Sky at 89% interest. 89%!! What in the world was I thinking?! All I could think about was how desperate I felt at the time. All I needed was $3000 to pay off another debt that I was four payments behind on but the rep at Western Sky convinced me to take the $10,000 loan and pay back $7000 right away (no penalties for early pay off) and I should have the rest paid back in just a few months as long as I pay the minimum of $743.49 a month.

Hi Waffles, In a separate thread you said that Cash Call is not bound by the FDCPA because they are the creditor on my Western Sky loan. I want to verify this again with you as my understanding was that WS sold the loan to CC, who is now servicing the loan? Doesn't this make CC a third party collector on this loan, and bound by FDCPA? I have been talking with CC...and want to be sure I handling it correctly. I appreciate your expertise! Thanks

What is the status of this company? I see their address is 2840 Hwy 95 Alt Silver Springs NV 89429, which is also the address to a Silver Shield Services (an incorporation company) that has a bunch of businesses under it's name that are revoke, permanently revoked etc.. I live in Pennsylvania and am having a problem with this company. They are threatening to debit my bank account if I do not pay them.

They refuse to negotiate a settlements and accept payments. The filed and received a Judgement for 12,000, which is 400.00, more than the debt owed. They then put a lien on our property in 2011. on 8/14/12, then filed a cash levy on our joint account and well as my husband's individual account; joint account is still on hold, causing major banking issues, and now are seeking court ordered wage garnishments. I have a court date on 9/29/12. What if anything can be done. for 2 years I have been working with a debt management company, and saying money to help settle the case.

 

USAA won't revoke ACH

12 years 9 months ago
I have trying for 3 days to get USAA to honor the ACH revocation on 1 Payday loan that is illegal. I keep getting told by one of the 'executives' that because I agreed to this contract, it is not possible for them to revoke ACH. I have went around and around with 3 different 'executives' and keep getting told that there is nothing they can do to help me. I just have to work it out with the Payday lender... Where do I go from here??

Stupid offers

12 years 9 months ago
i have a debt with a college, they loan me cash to pay for books and it was interest free. it should hadn't happened that they needed to loan it to me, cause it should of been included with my already borrowed student loan, but anyways, they scammed me by doing this so called interest free loan. now, of course, i cant pay it. they now offered me with a letter: pay half of what you owe us, we will give you 30 days, and the loan will be paid in full, that's 50% discount ! Where the heck can I get half to pay, when I can't afford the monthly payments.
