I have several payday loans, I get one to pay off one, and just have a mess. I have one with NLS cash advance, and have so far paid $429.00 for a $250 loan. I am told there will be another payment coming out for $279.00. I never signed a contract, on request they finally sent me a contract that says I electronically signed, which I didn't. I submitted my information on line for a loan, and next thing I knew there was $250.00 deposited into my account, I didn't even know where it came from, but this site helped me find out by what was written on my bank statement. How do I stop another payment from coming out without closing my bank account? I also have one with A2Bcash, and payday1. I have read something about a letter you can send? And how do I find out if the companies are legal or not? Can someone help me get out of this mess? Just want to get rid of them all. Thanks


Hi misshunny, hang tight & someone with a little more knowledge will be here to help.
For you account, if you don't want to close it then you would need to put a hard debit block or hold on it, that way money can go in, but they can't take anything out.
There is a letter, called a cease & desist letter, but I would wait to send it until you know that your money is safe & the companies can't get to it.
Here is a copy of your state laws:
Quote:

Legal Status: Prohibited

Citation:
Check cashers are specifically prohibited from making payday loans under Check Cashing Licensing Act of 1998, ???? 505(a). Otherwise, consumer discount company act applies. 7 Pa. Cons. Stat. Ann. ???? 6201 et seq.

Small Loan Rate Cap
$9.50 per $100 per year discount or 24% per year

I won't try to interpret them for you, I'll leave that to the people with more experience :D

The only sure way to stop the debits is to close your bank account. I do see that you are in PA and someone will be along shortly to help you with the laws in your state as I believe there is a little tiny loophole that must be addressed. In the meantime, could you list the amount you borrowed from each, how much you have repaid on each and how you came about to have them (internet,storefront). I believe you are speaking of a C and D letter, which you can find in the do it yourself section at the top of this page. I think A2Bcash is in Denmark. Hang tight. Help is on the way.

I am in the same boat. I did not request this loan and they are charging me 120.00 dollars every two weeks. I cannot contact them. I have contacted all of the other pay day lenders and requsted proof of a contract i signed as well as deposit dates where the moneys were funded to my accounts. Not only do i not recall two of these loans but I deff. don't recall having any mysterious moneys appear into my account. I have deff. learned my lesson. I am stopping my direct deposits and going to put stop pays on any of those loans. It's going to be embarrassing but hopefully my bank will work with me. If the lender can produce proof that i requested and recieved these funds then i will begin paying them off one each month, if not then they can BITE ME! I am paying alnmost 700.00 dollars a month to these. If anyone has anyother advice I would love to hear it. Esp. How to contact NLS Cash Advance. Thank you
