I sent Eastside Lenders a letter revoking ACH and wage assignment. I borrowed $500 and have paid back $600.
Their reply is below. What do I do now? They mention arbitration. Is that through court?

What state are you in? The
What state are you in? The AG's of a few states have issued cease and desist to these guys.
no
they threaten that,but how can any arbitrator side with an illegal lender so no they don't again they might threaten it,but the procedure for that is close to what your rules for service in a court case would be.don't worry about that clause in the illegal contract.
