well here is what you owe.

my1 30.00
star 30.00
mmg 30.00

i would negate the second eastside with the first so everyone else owes you a refund.at least a pif.secure your account.the fifth sticky will give you every step in dealing with illegal lenders.again those are three you owe and how much you actually owe.

i know,but a pdl has to be licensed to lend in IL.plus look at all the laws.trust me that every ipdl you have is not licensed therefore illegal in IL.

Thanks!!
I sent out all of my emails yesteday and have received 2 responses.
M1Y - Per your demand all automatic debits have been ceased.
MMG - Your account will be sold to a debt collection company and no longer be in our hands.

Nothing from the rest yet. Does handing it over to a debt collection company change anything? Should I request (again) an address to send the $30 balance to? Do I ask for the name of the company that they are selling it to? Or just leave well enough alone.

Thanks!!

Is this true....
East Side Lenders, which is located in Delaware, is licensed by the State of Delaware to make small loans. All such loans are approved and funded in Delaware, with repayment to be made in Delaware. The East Side Lenders loan agreement and website contain all disclosures required by Delaware and federal law and make it clear that all transactions are governed by Delaware law. On the advice of counsel, East Side Lenders maintains that the choice of Delaware law as controlling in the loan documents would be upheld, as all of the significant contacts in the loan transaction occur in Delaware. The loan agreement is legal and enforceable. In responding to your correspondence, East Side Lenders notes and reserves all available legal and equitable objections to the points you have raised.
East Side Lenders provided this service as a convenience to you. We still consider your loan to be outstanding and are prepared to go to arbitration as provided for in the Loan Agreement between us. As an alternative, if you are experiencing financial hardship, we will be happy to speak to you about payment arrangements through which you can successfully meet your payment obligations. East Side Lenders will consider doing so because of our continuing commitment to servicing our customers and not because of a legal obligation to do so.
Should you have any further questions regarding this matter, if you wish to speak about payment arrangements, please contact us at
Sincerely,
Customer Service

Yes the above Guest is exactly right! All 3 PDLs are owned by a Native American Indian Tribe in Miami, Oklahoma. And all 3 are not licensed to lend in any state. They are also being investigated by the FTC, BBB, FBI, and the Oklahoma State Attorney General.

Some of the complaints filed on these companies state:

United Cash Loans is located at the same address as USFastCash, Star Cash Processing, & AmeriLoan. A subsequent BBB investigation determined that this address is the address for offices of the Miami Nation Indian Tribe. During its investigation of these companies, BBB employees visited the location as well as sent a certified letter to the Chief of the Tribe asking for further information regarding these companies. Employees of the Miami Nation Indian Tribe neither confirmed nor denied knowledge of the loan companies, and informed BBB staff that they would have to speak to the Miami Nation Indian Tribe's Leadership concerning the matter. BBB has not received a response from the Chief concerning this matter. At the present time, BBB does not know if these companies are operated by the Tribe, by employees or other people using the Tribe's addresses, or is a joint venture between the Tribe and a for-profit company.

The complaints against this company and others located at the same address generally allege the inability to pay off the requested loan, charges to the consumer's checking or credit card account despite never receiving the requested loan, or continued unauthorized charges to the consumer's credit card or checking account once the loan has been paid off.
BBB has determined that this company is not licensed in the state of Oklahoma to provide loans to consumers and does not appeare to be licensed in any of the states from which consumers have filed complaints with BBB. However, if the Miami Indian Tribe actually operates this business, it may not be subject to state laws regulating this industry.

BBB encourages all consumers seeking loans of any kind to research all of their options before providing any private financial information or signing any loan papers. Consumers should check with BBB on the company's grade, their complaint volume, and whether or not the company is licensed or regulated to provide the type of loan services the customer is seeking.

you paid one of those?okay.so the 175.00 isn't the actual amount owed.i would wait until they e-mail again and bring it up about the account status and balance.

so you owe them 150.00?then that is all you pay.the fact that they tried to debit an account they know is closed is their problem.

If they are illegal - unlicensed in Illinois, not following IL law, wouldn't I be entitled to a refund on the first and yes, I know I still owe on the second.
East Side #1 $700.00 $1,480.00
East Side #2 $500.00 $125.00

So, they can give me a refund of 780 and then I will pay them the 375 or I am willing to call it a wash!

now it is clear.i would push for a refund of the overpaid loan with 375.00 going towards the outstanding loan.they more than likely won't go for that,but it'sworth a try.mention the other loan next time you correspond.see what they say.

Good morning,
I am writing regarding an account that has been paid in full. You should be able to access this by using my email address, if not, let me know.

I have record of this loan being paid in full, above and beyond what is legal in the state of Illinois - based on Illinois law, the interest on the loan should not have been more than $108.50 for a $700 loan. My records indicate that I paid you a total of $1,480.00 for this loan. I am prepared to contact the Illinois Attorney General and the FTC regarding this illegal loan practice.

As you are aware, prior to learning of the laws which govern these payday loans in the state in which I reside, I took out a second loan with your company (I believe it was before the mandated cooling off period of 7 days had expired) for $500.00. Which I have paid back $125.00 of. I am willing to reach an agreement with your company as outlined below.

Loan Amount - Maximum FInance Charge Allowed - Paid
$700.00 - $108.50 - Total $808.50
$500.00 - $77.50 - Total $577.50
Totals -
$1200.00 - $186.00 - total $1,386.00

I I have paid your company a total of $1,605.00 for these 2 loans. I am willing to not pursue legal action for a refund on the first loan if you will provide me with a paid in full for both loans. I need this from your company by the 4:00 PM CST on Friday, 8/7/09 or I will use any means necessary to collect a refund from your company.
As my previous emails have indicated, I need an address in which to submit payment for the balance of loan number 2 ($452.50) if you would like to issue a refund on the first loan of $671.50 and have me submit payment for loan number 2.

Regards,
Me.....

So, I sent follow emails today asking for addresses which to send money orders and this is the response I was given by MMG - Again, your account is no longer with our company and you owe us nothing.
I know I did not repay the entire $300 that I borrowed and they first responded with telling me that they would sell my account to a collection agency.
Is this normal practice?

I went to my bank today and filled out an affadavit (sp?) for unauthorized ACH for Crown Financial on both the deposit and the debits. they deposited 200.00 in my account and then debited 89.00 x 2 and 1 for 289.00. I have no emails from them nor can I locate them on the internet. I figured if I dispute everything - deposit and withdrawls they can't say I owe them anything.

Here is what the person I am working with from the State of Illinois says about Internet (unlicensed) PDL Repayments -
Since you entered into a contract with a lender you are obliged to fulfill the contract. If you get me copies of your contracts, from every lender, I will take a look and see if I can help you in any way.

I'm trying to understand what's gping on with this thread. I stumbled upon it doing a google search for Star Cash Processing-which is the name that a $300 deposit is showing up under in my bank account. i had no idea where this deposit came from, so i searched it and this cam up. Apparently, Eastside Lenders decided to deposit money in my account even though I never esigned the documents.
Now, after reading through this thread I am even more alarmed. I currently have 4 pay day loans open:
checkngo-1000
ameriloan-400
5oofastcash-300
and
multiloan source-300
I just paid the interest on the last 3 for the total amount of $300
and the checkngo loan for 1000 is due to come out in 2 days (the 20th) for a total of 1155.

Am I correct in that I don't have to pay interest fees for all these loans EXCEPT checkngo?
I'm not sure if i understand what i've been reading here, but it sounded like these other 3 companies aren't legal?
Help, I'm very worried about my bank account now!!
