I just got a call from a "Miss Peterson" saying she from ARM representing Paycheck Today. Saying that I should seek legal rep. because they are going to legally seek action on collecting this debt. I was wondering if Paycheck Today is a legal or illegal payday loan. If it is a legal one, I will work with them. But if they are not they are just going to have to wait. I am in Wisconsin.


Paycheck Today doesn't appear to be licensed in WI--I just ran a search on WI's database. I've read other posts from Wisconsinites (what do you guys call yourselves anyway?) saying the DFI has been very helpful to them when dealing with PaycheckToday. Don't hesitate to get them involved if ARM starts harassing you (which they're known for).

I have no clue what we call ourselves. I am being the process of filing Chapter 128 so I just want to get everything together before I send in the paperwork. I just keep record of everything they call so I have a papertrail on them.

Does anyone else any advise on dealing with them? The worst part about it is that they called me at work. Does anyone have a fax number I can fax them a C&D again.

I just finished dealing with them and Cash Advance Network all part of MTE. PCT is not legal and Arm is not licensed to collect in my state. I filed a complaint with the Florida BBB and ARM responded with a letter saying my account is now closed and they had no idea these companies were illegal and unlicensed to lend to AZ residents.

Did they use the tag team? First a female and then a male takes over? File a complaint asap with the Florida BBB and Florida AG's office as well as the AG in your state and mention to the BBB their collection tactics.

Next time they call tell them they are on a recorded line they will hang up and the calls will stop when the BBB contacts them.

i am currently dealing with both paychecktoday and can, so far those have been the worst 2 companies i have ever dealt with in my life, especially paychecktoday, that lady is so horrably nasty i couldnt believe it. atleast i got the c&d letter to can right before i defaulted so all i get is stupid emails about how i am a fraud and they are filing action and turn me into the attorny general. but i'm sure if i called them they would be just as nasty as paychecktoday.

I got a loan from them and they took the first payment but they have not taken the second one. Should I be concerned?

i checked can website, my wife has an old account, when i logged in last week the disclosure said due to technical difficulties no new loans can be granted. this time it just looked normal. but it sounds like can and paychecktoday were having the same problem so it must have been somthing with mte.

I would not worry about either company. I had a loan with each one not realizing they are illegal in NY. I had paid well over the principle amount of the loans when I found that out. I contacted them and the Paycheck Today rep was ridiculous. She said I was at fault and that if my next payment didn't go through she was going to have me arrested. CAN was just clueless when I talked to them. I file AG complaints and never heard from them again. I would not sweat it if I were you....good luck.

I do not recall the name. She was chewing gum or something and she kept getting confused when I was explaining the situation. She basically had an "I don't care" take on it and said if my next payment did not go through, I would be arrested. I knew enough that is not true so I told her OK and hung up. They called once after that, but the AG was really quick with contacting them.

How can I find out if they are Lic. In ohio to do business? They keep calling me at work after I and the Manager asked them not too. They tried to tell me that they talked to someone in payroll and they are going to take my checks, but I talked to payroll and they said they would have to have a court order before that could happen. What can I do?

Paycheck Today is NOT licensed, as kfstaff posted. No way, no how. Empty threats from them. And it would take a court order to garnish your wages, which an illegal company can't do (good luck to them for trying!). Is there any way you can convince these idiots you no longer work there so they will stop calling your workplace? And have you filed any complaints against them yet?

Arm of Fl is not llicensed to collect in my state. I reported them and their collection tactics to the BBB of Florida, they closed my account and I have not heard from them since.

I bet they are not licensed in your state either. What licensed legal CA would collect for unlicensed illegal pdl's.????

If they call you again ask them to hold while you turn on your recorder for your AG's Office. They will hang up fast!!!!

i got a few calls from arm and i sent them a nasty c&d letter certified mail. they signed for it last tuesday and since then i havent received any phone calls. i told them they had 30 days to respond to my letter via mail and i still havent gotten anything from them. i did file a complaint with the bbb of florida but i havent heard anything from them either. as long as the calls stop thats all i really cared about.
