Payday Loan Mess

Did your bank warn you first about closing your account due to overdrafts? Was it in the negative for a long time?

What state are you from? Go to another bank right away and try to open an account. Some states have banks report you for this under your credit reporting. If you want to open one, better make it quick before they do this or you won't be able to. If they do this in your state.

Your prior thread had a link to a list of banks that do not use chexsystems.

Yes, they can do that, and if you owe them anything, they can keep it.

What companies did you have loans with? If you give more information there are people here who have dealt with many different lenders who can advise you. What state are you from? What companies do you have loans with? How much is each loan for? and finally how much have you paid on each one so far. You have alot to do to clean this up but we are all here to help you and have been in your shoes.

Your prior thread had a link to a list of banks that do not use chexsystems. Make sure you look at that list, and try banking with one of said banks.

Yes, they can do that, and if you owe/d them anything, they can keep it.

Also, once you get all the information above you will want to send each company a revocation of voluntary wage assignment so they are going for your paycheck, keep a copy of this, send it certified, you may need it for your human resource department at work. They may try to take your pay, If the pdl company snuck this one in on you, you will have that covered. Most people close their bank accounts in this situation, so you are one up on them. At least now the fees stop.

Hang in there, you may have refunds coming once you gather up all this information and post it so that forum members can reply. Alot of good people here to help you out of this mess.

Ok, I went to that link, but it doesn't have it for my state which is Oregon. also, where do I get the revocation of voluntary wage assignment. i would like to get going on this tonight.

The letter would read something like:

Addy...
addy...
addy...

date

To such and such:

I hearby revoke your authorization to any and all of my wages. Should any further deductions be made, you are hereby subject to legal action.

swoody

As for the link, go to page 3, press [ctrl + F] and type "oregon" in the search box. It is about 3/4 of the way down.

Should the wage letter be inadequete, rest assured, other members can point out better copies/wording/etc...

Swoody--

Make sure the wage revocation letter that you give to your payroll dept covers all payday loan lenders that might attempt this. You don't have to list each company by name, just sum it up as any and all.

The letter would read something like:

Addy...
addy...
addy...

date

To such and such:

I hearby revoke your authorization to any and all of my wages from my current employer, xxxxxxxxxxxxx. You are also forbidden from deducting monies from any future employment I may hold.

Should any further deductions be made, you are hereby subject to any and all appropriate legal action against you, of which I will not hesitate to procede.

Damn bugs...logging me out in less than 5 minutes :x

Thank you to all of you for your help and advice. I am so new to this. I finally got to the oregon link, but it doesn't list any of the banks around here. should I just start calling around and asking, or would that not be a good choice. also, If anyone has a better copy or wording for the revoke letter, I would appreciate it. Like I said i am new to this, and i just want to get it right.

Swoody, what part of Oregon do you live in (just generally). I'm the one that made the bank list and I live in Oregon so my research is very extensive . . . . Also, don't just run and open a new account at any bank. Even if the old bank hasn't reported you to chexsystems yet, they still can and most major banks do chexsystem sweeps. They will also feeze and close your new account just like the old bank did. It sucks. Also, wage assignments are ILLEGAL in Oregon. They cannot assign your wages, so don't worry about that.

I live in Condon which is about 70 miles southeast of The Dalles. We have one bank in town which is Bank of eastern Oregon. Some of the banks in surrounding town are Sterling, and wells Fargo, and Bank of america

Do not go with Wells Fargo. They are notorious for freezing and closing bank accounts and if you have a chexsystems report they will find it and screw you. I just PM'd you a message with the Oregon stuff, but you are right, there isn't much around you. I would try applying at BofA online. That should work.

You aren't by chance military are you?

no, not military. Preschool teacher. Can you imagine. I should be smarter than to get into this mess.

Darn, there is a really good online bank that doesn't use chexsystems, but you have to be military or recently out . . . . Did you get my PM?

yes, thank you.

I will look and see if I can find any other banks in the area for you . . . . I'm looking at a map, but it looks like there really aren't any other towns around yours. Is that right? Also, is there anything specific you are looking for in a bank? Would you consider an online bank or do you need to have a physical location?

the biggest towns are The Dalles and Hermiston, and they are both about an hour and a half away. Our local bank is bank of eastern oregon, and I went online to look, but i didn't see anything about what they do when you apply for an account. I just really need someplace to cash my check,my husband had direct deposit, but the school where i work doesn't offer it.

swoody
sounds like you are on your way and you have a great resource in goudah2424 from your state and been here awhile. Keep posting your questions, you will get through this one step at a time.

So you need a physical bank location? Most online banks you could deposit checks with an ATM, but fees may be involved. You can also mail your deposit in, but that takes a few days.

Update. I was able to open an account at our local hometown bank. I just ask our old one if they report to chexsystems, and they said no, but that everything had been paid anyway. No on to working on this payday loan mess.

Thank you for your support. No I wouldn't have gone there if I could have done anything else. I just hope I am not too late to fix the mess i have made od everything.

Are you pdl's internet? If so, there is a chance that they aren't licensed in Oregon. Can you list what companies you have pdl's through?

ok, here goes.

I know that is a lot, and I feel like I have to explain. In June my husband was diagnosed with a blood disease.he couldn't work, and we were about to lose everything we had. Maybe even still. i felt I had no choice.

So only 2 of your PDL's are legal. I would focus on paying those 2 off first. Send letters to the others saying that since they aren't licensed they cannot lend money in OR, and request that the loan be marked PIF. You can find some good advice and form letters on this site, but I recommend putting things completly in your own words. Most of the PDL's have seen the form letters many times.

Oh, and I also talked to the eastern bank of oregon. They will open a new account for people on chexsystems as long as the item is paid. The only catch is that you will not have overdraft protection on the account. Other then that it is just like a regular checking account.

Wow...you da man, goudah (or Whoa-man, as it may be)

Thanks . . . I guess I'm a whoa-man then . . . .

Oh My Gosh, thank you so much. I will get on that right away. I was having trouble finding all of the contact info. I love this site. It feel so nice to talk to people who have been there. Thank You.

No problem. I couldn't find anything for Money World Lending . . . . But I was only checking the BBB, so they could just not be on there.

Oregon people UNITE! Where in Pregon are you, Gouda? I'm in Portland.

I mean...Oregon.

Technically I live in Tualatin . . . Just south of PDX . . . .

Sorry, I didn't realize I wasn't signed in . . . .

Hey goudah2424
I know you are from oregan, but I can not seem to find out if cashnetusa is licensed in Pennsylvania. Can you possibly find out for me please. I have searched and can't find anything.

OK guys, i am new to this, so hang with me.I hope this dosn't sound too stupid. I have several payday loans. I found out that several of them, all but 2, are not licensed in the state of Oregon. My question is,should I try to put them all on a debt consolidation, or should I contact them first and tell them that it was illegal to loan to me in oregon in the first place. Also, what is a good consolidation company. I don't want to be in an even bigger mess.

From what I can tell, they are not licensed in PA, but it looks like they are prohibited there, so they couldn't get a license if they wanted to. Here is the state info in case you don't have it:

http://www.debtconsolidationcare.com/paydayloan/explain-pdls-laws.html

I will check into things a bit more and get back to you for sure about their licensing status . . .

Swoody, unless you have a lot of other debt that needs consolidating I personally would do it myself. Can you list how much you borrowed/paid back on each loan? That way we can tell if you still have to pay them, or if you should be paid off by now.

Hi goudah, yeah, I will list all of that, but I will have to do it this evening, I have to get to work. Nothing like a bunch of rowdy 3 year olds to take my mind off of my money problems. Thanks for your help and advice, much appreciated.

I live in missouri and have many of the same questions that swoody has, i have three payday loans from the internet and am drowning, where do i find if these companies are licensed in missouri? and if they are not should I stop the loans from debiting from my checking account, send them letters, b/c technically I have paid them what I own them, even though they claim they are fees

Sure, if you go to paydayloaninfo.org you will find a link to your states laws, and a link to your states database of licensees.

Yes, if you have paid them the legal amount for your state you should close your checking account, open a new one, and start the letter writing!

Ok. does anyone know if pdl can be included in debt consolidation? if so, what companies?

I have a loan thru cashnetusa, gfsil and united cash loans, are they legal in missouri

Some companies do allow payday loans to be consolidated . . . . Not many though . . . . There is one that has been discussed on this board called Langhorn Law or something like that, I know they deal with pdl's. I'm not very familiar with consoildation companies, so maybe someone with more experience in that area will answer.

fedupinpa - I researched the cashnetusa in PA question and I answered it in the thread you started for it . . . . Just is case you check back here for a answer . . . .
