I have been looking at this sight for a while now and have decided to take the plunge and try to stop all of these ACH transactions from hitting my account every month. I have some questions, because I'm afraid of what these places will do to me. This is what I have done so far....
I went to the bank and asked if I could put a block on the ACH's every month. I can, they might charge me a fee, but I can still do it. I have loans with Paydayok, Paydayselect, zip cash, and Rio Resources. Paydayok and Paydayselect are licensed in Texas (that's where I live). I called the Federal Trade Commission and they told me to call the Texas Office of Consumer Credit Commissioner. I called them and they said that like with Rio Resources, they probably go thru a national bank??? and so nothing can be done. And what happens with the two companies that ARE licensed in Texas? Should I just try to pay those off? I just need to know the first steps to get this started. My next payday is the end of the month so I don't have much time. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Also, the Consumer Credit Commissioner told me that if these companies word the "interest charge" a certain way, they can get by with it.

Loan companies licensed in your state can get a legal stand agai
Loan companies licensed in your state can get a legal stand against you if you default on their accounts. So, you need to give them the priority first. You will have to pay them the principal amount along with the legal charges allowed by your state. Here is the Texas law on payday loans
