what else should I do!?
Date: Tue, 04/28/2009 - 13:43
I have entered a complaint against this company with the attorney general of Indiana and also with the Better Business Bureau. I also have stopped payment on any more debits from this company. What else do I need to do? Please let me know! It's nearly cost me what little sanity I have left!

Consumer's Original Complaint :
Subject: geneva roth
On or before October 23, 2008, I applied for a payday loan on the internet.On October 24, I received an email, (which I can produce), stating that I had been approved for a $500 loan with a fee of $150; with the first due date of November 7. Also, on that day, I was contacted by Charles McNeely, stating the same points. I was NEVER told that it would be $150 would be taken out of my account bi-weekly to "extend" the loan, nor was I told the interest rate. I thought that the entire loan would cost $650, and after that amount was taken out of my checking account the loan would be paid off. I would NEVER have agreed to paying $300 each month in order to receive a $500 loan! I have tried many times to contact them, but each time I am put on hold for a LONG time!
Since November 7, my checking account has been debited $150 every two weeks. So, as of now, April 14, I have paid nearly $1800 for a $500 loan!
I have no idea what to do now. They will just continue to take money out of my account when they should have been paid off long ago!
I am going to close my bank account.
I only hope that you can help me with this loan shark company.
Consumer's Desired Resolution:
I have paid over $1800 in fees for a $500 loan. I feel that this should definitely have paid the loan many times over! Especially when the terms that I agreed to weren't the same as what the "contract" says. I was quoted $150 for the whole loan of $500.This is like a bait and switch scheme. I would like to have the overage from $650; which would be $1150, refunded to me. This has nearly ruined my checking account with nsf fees, and I am going to have to close my account.
