Hi there, I'm still a newbie here, but I'm grateful for such an outstanding resource, and I need all the help I can get.

I'm in Texas, first off......and the payday loan biz is booming here. But the loans I have aren't really what i consider payday loans as they don't require a post-dated check or ACH authorization. Most ask for a list of items of value for collateral (TV's, jewelry, tools, etc).

Nonetheless, they are similar in tactics, finance charges and structure and they are pressing me pretty rough.

I have three loans, one at World Finance ($1200), Citi Finance ($700), and Austin Finance ($500).

My monthly payments are $160, $100 and $70 respectively.

They are very tenacious about collecting, obviously. I am current on these loans right now, but haven't chipped away at them at all because I've had to re-finance them instead of making the payments.

What would happen if I can't pay them?
Am I going to lose my promised property? When?
Any advice on dealing with these places?
