247advances.com Address

Dear Katmjohnson,

As per my knowledge goes, there is no such law through which a non-US company can collect debt from a US citizen like you. But I am not fully sure about it. Hope other members of the community may help.

Regards,

Phoenix

Thanks for replying Phoenix - I got a response from the BBB in UTAH and they say that they (247advances) has gone out of business - Interesting.

What address did you file the complaint under with BBB?

Sorry for the late reply -

I was provided this address:
247advances.com
Address: 223 West Bulldog Blvd, Suite 529
Provo, UT 84604
File Open Date: April 2008

247advances responded by telling me that this is not their address as they are not a US company. The BBB stated that their mail sent to them was returned indicating the company was out of business.

I don't know what I can do at this point. I want to pay them back.

okay I have loan and I closed my account so they would stop takig $74 out overy payday. I have been paying then $74 a payday since March..so roughly I have paid at least $740 on a $200 loan. I have closed my account, should I give my new checking information and continue to pay, or just settle with 247advances when they contact me for non payment? or from what I have read have i paid my loan back and no longer owe anything?

How I cancel my membership?

I am in the same predicament as the others above, I have a loan since November and have been paying $74 a month, I want to pay off but cannot get a hold of anyone. I am closing my back acct out at the end of this month.

That is the smart way to go. This company is ILLEGAL and based overseas. Secure you account ASAP!

I AM CURRENTLY GOING THROUGHT THE SAME THING I AM TRYING TO PAY THEM OFFF AND CAN NOT FIND THERE PHONE NUMBER OR ADDRESS. SOME ONE PLEASE TELL ME WHAT YOU DID BECASUE I AM TIRED OF GIVING THEM 74.00 A MONTH

The only thing you can to stop them is the close our bank account.

Correct close your account I'm in the same boat except stupid me have paid almost $1800.00. I called them they are in Malta but will not release an address.

They told me to fill out a "Ticket" on their website (there is also a fone # at the bottom of their site) but now it all goes to v.m. last week some lady answer the fone but I was fighting her and wont give me her local address. So I've filled out about 5 Tickets.

did anyone try to put a stop pay on the payment with thier financial inst?

I just got off of the phone with a lady who refused to give me any of their information. I want to file a lawsuit against them. They called me 4 times within an hour; each time I spoke to them. I asked for them to not call me back at my work number because I could lose my job. I was told it's my problem, that if I get fired I better find another job because I still had to pay them back. So, I hung up. She called me back 13 times!!!!! Each time telling me I was going to pay them back or she would keep calling me. That she had all night and day to call me. They she said she would call my boss, my friends, and my neighbors to tell them all I was a thief! I have paid $300. I put a stop payment in through my bank, which was honored. Then I closed my account. Now they are harrassing me day and night. When I told them I needed a phone number or physical address they refused and told me they didn't have one. So they don't exist? I don't buy it. I want this company taken down, NOW! Anyone with any information, please give it here. I'm getting legal counsel.

This company is ILLEAGL and not licensed to lend in the US. What was the original amount of the loan? If you have paid them more than the principal then you are done. Ignore her empty threats and tell them next time they call you are filing harassment charges against her and the company. :wink:

I did tell her I was filing harrassment charges. She and her "manager" both laughed at me and told me that I didn't dare. Then told me there's no way I can afford an attorney. HA! I'll prove them wrong. The loan was for $200. I have paid $292.

I'm owing them 1600+ right now. I called the attorney general in california and they refered me to the agency that regulates these types of companies and they told me they are not licensed to do busines in California, and for me to file a complaint and they will investigate. The "customer service" dept emailed me and told me they are in Malta and laws in the United States does not apply to them. Mentioned the contract and arbritration. How do I do that? Email comes back office is closed. Hours for 247 are Eastern time. Do we have to pay these people or what. I closed my bank account along time ago and they just keep racking up the charges.

Since they are illegal you only owe the amount borrowed.

If you have paid that and your account is closed you are done with them. They can tack on anything they want but you do not legally owe it.

Any amount you paid in interest fees or rollover fees goes towards the loan.

Ignore them. This company is an Illegal lender. You have paid more than enough on the loan. What state are you in?

When I told them I had closed my account and contacted an attorney and they could no longer collect any money from me they told me my attorney was wrong and they will continue to call me and use any means avaiable to get their money. They have already rec'd over 500. on a 200. loan
