Are these internet or storefront?
Who exactly froze your account? The bank?
Internet lenders won't come to your house, and I'm not sure what they mean by "processing you"...that's a bunch of hooey.
Can you specify who these lenders are?

Title XXXIII Chapter 516 of the Florida General Statutes will will only apply in your case if they have violated it in any way. Here is the link http://www.flsenate.gov/Statutes/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&URL=Ch0516/titl0516.htm
Do not give them anymore info about you or your bank account. Btw, why did the bank say they froze your account?

So what shall I do about the guy that keeps calling? I know that hes gonna call me 20 times tomorrow. I will not give them anymore money. Should I contact a lawyer? Or should I just ignore them? Let me know
The first time he calls inform him that you are requesting that
The first time he calls inform him that you are requesting that they stop calling you at your place of business and at home. If they want to contact you tell them to do so in writing. Tell them you will be sending a letter stating the same and that any further telephonic contact from them will be considered harrassment and a violation of your rights. To which you will have no choice but to inform the authorities. PM me and I'll give you a sample "cease and desist" letter. Send it CMRRR ASAP. Then any following time they call you document it. at that point they are breaking the law and could be fined up to a $1000 per violation.
Eric.. In response to your pm, this looks like Bahamas Marketin
Eric..
In response to your pm, this looks like Bahamas Marketing Group with a lot of aliases.
Is this the original debtor of your payday loan?
They've been know to be quite elusive, and I'm not sure which state they are working out of. My suggestion is that you send them a letter describing Ohio payday laws and include how much your loan amount was for and how much you've paid.
As far as the phone calls, if they are the original debtor, I'm afraid they can call you anytime they feel like it.
