:evil: Never ever borrow from big-int.com, phone number 877-283-6730. They are rude and abnoxious. They almost got me fired from my job by calling literally 10 times in a row. They got loud with my boss, and called a co-worker a liar when she said I was unavailable. They left threatening messages with my 12 yr old daughter and made her very scared and upset. I only borrowed $250. and with paying refinance charges from December of 2006 I have paid them back $675. already.

Unfortunatly, that's pretty common practice for a lot of the ipdl's . . . .

You could send them a cease and desist letter regarding calling you at work. If you have caller ID you could have your kids only answer calls they know the number for.

Depending on what state you live in you may have already paid the legal amount you owe. Most of these ipdl's don't follow state laws like they should. If you want to post more info we can give you some more specific advice on how to deal with the company.

I am sorry that you are going through this. I don't have a loan with them but I do with other companies with tactics that are just as bad. My coworker does have a loan with them and I have literally gotten calls from them on two different lines from two different people asking for her, both calling from big-int. I just hang up on them anymore as she is in your situation too. Good luck with them. Like goudah said if you give us more info such as the state you are in we can try to help you more.

This company is affiliated with GFSIL...please file a complaint with the AG as I learned today that this company is being investigated by numerous AG's in the states. They are overseas and the lady I spoke with today said that they are trying to figure out how to prevent them from lending in the US as their are numerous complaints against them.....

I have also been dealing with these people. I borrowed 250 in Jan 07 and am sure I have pd that and then some. I closed my account today since I cannot contact anyone. They are going to try and access it on the first. I think I will go ahead and file a complaint with my AG's office. I have learned my lesson.

The company I work for keeps getting phone calls from reps at BIG wanting to speak w/some of our employees. Because this is place of business I cannot transfer personal calls but these people keep calling repeatedly throughout the day and are RUDE, DEMANDING, UNPROFESSIONAL and COMPLETELY UNAWARE OF PHONE HARASSMENT LAWS. And I'm not the person who has a loan with them, never would either! I am filing a complaint with the ACA of our state but cannot locate an address for BIG to include on the form. Please can anyone help with an address??

They just called my job over a dozen times and I called them back and told them I do not want a loan with your company because you are harrassing my place of employment. He said he still was going to give me a loan and didn't know who he was talking to. SCAM!!!. So if I have 200.00 in my account Iknow exactly what to do. SO BIG if you are reading this do not deposit your money in my account!!!!

I am in the same situation. I called them yesterday to look into a paydown and they said that the company does not allow that. Then they said that when I got the loan they explained all of the fees to me. I told the guy that I talked to that I never remember them saying that I was just having fees. I thought that in the state of California that they can only get so much of interest chargeed to me.

The same man from this company keeps calling for one of our employees...he is very, VERY rude and has accused me of being a liar and harassing him! He has harassed 3 or 4 of my coworkers, too. He goes on about how we lie that said employee is not here, or accuses us of being that person, and how "this call is recorded". (To which we say, GOOD!) When I told him I couldn't give him a number, he replied "Let me talk to your supervisor." We went back and forth about how no one in my office could give him a number, and then I demanded to speak with his supervisor. So what does he say "I am the supervisor!" That started another argument...Finally someone else took the call but he kept at it with them too. All we do now is say "No they are not here, can I take a message". If not...too bad!

I answer the phones at my work. This company calls here once to 3 times a DAY for the SAME PERSON! The only nasty guy I deal with called me a liar, that she wasn't getting the messages. I got loud with him back. I have hung up and they call back. I keep doing this round about circle. Anyone know if it is illegal to call the work number?

SG, a person can send a cease & desist letter to these guys telling them to stop. However, this is an unlicensed/illegal company, so they do not abide by any requests. They will continue to break the law.

I had e-mailed BIG a letter the other day advising them that I knew they were illegal, not to make any contact via phone, only USPS or e-mail, etc. etc. Last night I got a message on my cell phone from a representative from BIG (with a big English accent) saying that he wanted to talk to me about an e-mail that was forwarded to him. I haven't and don't plan on calling him back. I guess if he received the e-mail, he didn't read it very thoroughly : ( I then e-mailed the same letter to them once again. Haven't heard anything as of yet. It's almost a little scary dealing with these companies!!!

artey - do NOT deal with this company. If you can get out of it, do it now. And get rid of your bank account if they have the information. They will NEVER stop.

tina - They will continue to call. Just keep sending the same thing over and over. I wish I could tell you the calls will stop; however, I can't. They are still contacting people up to a YEAR after the pdl. They are amazing. To me, they will never go away.

Thanks cannr, I plan on sending the same e-mail over and over again. I haven't heard back from they since yesterday. The only problem is that I answer my own phone and work and I don't know who's calling. I can't just tell everyone that calls that I no longer work there. I work at a school and I have parents and other people calling me throughout the day. So far, I've been lucky, no phone calls at work but I'm expecting them to start any day. The message from BIG yesterday was left on my cell phone, which I won't answer if I don't know who it is calling (caller ID)

tina, well, if they call you at work (and I hope it goes directly to you), just tell them you can not take calls at work and hang up. Yes, they will call back. They play hard ball when it comes to telephone calls. However, if you can keep it up, they might stop for awhile once they realize they're not going to speak to you at your work number. Maybe they will just hit your cell phone 100 times. Just keep telling them not to call your work and hang up the phone. I hate these guys. They harrass people to death.

The company that I work with has been getting numerous calls from this company as well. Last night "Ryan Adams" called 11 times within 15 minutes. The best thing to do is to fill out a complaint form with the Reno, NV Better Business Bureau. Also, be sure to send a letter requesting that they stop calling you via fax. That way you have documentation to prove that you have asked them to stop calling. The fax # is 877-762-7350

Ok everyone...what do you suggest I do about these guys? My payment was returned and I just closed my acct. so if they try again, it won't go through. I haven't received any calls yet. (knock on wood)

Should I fax them the standard letter to leave me alone? I have a $200 "loan" with them and have paid well over $500 in interest alone.

Please help.

Please! There is no other way to deal with these people besides hanging up on them until they realize that they are wasting their time. They are calling from England and you can fax or mail to a Reno mail drop all you want. No one will call the guys in England and tell them to stop. You have to just discourage them. They can do nothing to you! NOTHING! I have dealt with them. Once they run into a wall they move on. If you talk to them they get encouraged like that lonely person that mistakes freindship with love interest. Like drugs! JUST SAY NO! They do not care about what is legal or not here in the US. They care about the commision they get for getting you to pay. Let them know in no uncertain terms that they are wasting their time!!

Just when I thought they were gone for good some guy named Sabi called me and after several hang ups finally managed to get to my voice mail. Said I was escalated to the legal dept. Then he called back and I decided to answer. I told him I was not paying him another dime and their was not a thing he could do about it and to crawl back into the cave he came from. He argued with me and got nowhere so he asked if I would like to speak to his supervisor. "OK."
"My name is Nigel can I help you." he sounded just like Sabi.
"Yeah, you can help me by going away." I replied.
"You owe us money, we are not going away"
"I do not owe you anything! I am not paying you so don't waste your time!"
"Yes you do. You are in serious legal trouble."
"Bullsh_t!" I have paid you more than the law allows you to collect."
"You are ruled by the laws of the UK."
"Don't make me laugh."
"How do you plan on taking care of this?" he demanded.
"Like this." Click.
Never heard from them again. That was Friday.
Today I got that stupid email that my payment was returned and perhaps it was a mistake signed by Chris Something the ficticious collection guy.
What a bunch of clowns. Under the rules of the UK. Give me a break!

Yeah, this company is a trip. I used them several times, always paid the loan off on my next payday. Then I had to renew the loan for a month or so and finally paid it off. When I told them I wanted to pay it off, they said "Are you sure? You can renew if for just another $40.00" I told them that I didn't want the loan anymore. Even when they sent the confirmation email, it stated that I could still change my mind.

Guest - honestly the only way to get these guys to quit calling the work number is to convince them that "the employee no longer works there". If you can convince them of that, they won't call work anymore. They'll call home/cell number a million times, but just don't answer. Otherwise, they will continue to call the work number. If at all possible, say "that employee is no longer here." They usually understand that.....

So I contacted my hosting company today and I told them to shut down the dedicated server that BIG Payday set up under my account. They did... for a while, but someone at BIG called them up, threatened them, and told them to re-open the dedicated server. My hosting company broke under the pressure and reopened the dedicated server for them... UNDER MY ACCOUNT!!!!

I'm still trying to get these leeches out of my system. This is so illegal. How can they actually operate in the US for as long as they have? This is 100% criminal activity.

Yet I see these folks have been in business for a while. How is this possible? Why can this fraudulent business not be stopped by the government?

They don't even have access to my account any more and STILL they are able to get what they want. It's disgusting.
