Check n Go dilemma

We have a Check n Go loan of $2500. The interest is 800% or some such horror. The advice here on your site is from 2007 stating we should call our bank to revoke the ACH authorization. Then deal with a collections agency, setting up a payment arrangement. BUT, according to the loan shark at Check n Go, they do NOT renegotiate loans, or reduce the interest rate. What should we do?
Thanks, Susan


Check n Go is registered and licensed as a CSO/CAB in most states that they operate in. If you are still current with the payments, call their local office and ask for the EPP. Chances are they will play hard ball and deny that they are capable of doing any such thing. If it so happens, call their corporate office and ask. They have more flexibility than their local counterparts.

They will negotiate.

If you can't afford the payments, close your account, revoke ACH and tell them you're doing so to force the account to collections. When their collections people call, try to negotiate a settlement. If they won't work with you, contact their corporate offices. If they still won't work for you, wait for it to be sent to an outside collections agency and settle with them.
