Cash Today Ltd.

belinda of east point, GA February 9, 2010

I am being harrassed about a debt that I paid off to Cash today limited from a company out of florida. They want give me any information on this debtor, how to settle, just threaten to have the police pick me up. The only thing they said is that I received an advance for 300.00 back in 2008 and never paid it back, now I owe 1500.00+ and need to get a lawyer, also they wouldn't give any other information to me except to my lawyer.

I checked back to see what company I dealt with then, it was Cash Today Limited. I don't know why or if this information is valid, I've tried calling the company Cash today at 800-, but that number doesn't exist anymore.

I want to settle this, but don't know how to contact this payday company anymore and the collection company want talk to me, they just keep hanging up on me and calling me fullish and said not to call them anymore. I spoke with a John M. and Michael C.. They both were very rude, and wouldn't give me any information. I don't know what to do. Help!

They called me told me they were INVESTIGATION OF CRIME OUT OF JACKSONVILLE FLORIDA. They told me they were calling to settle a debt with one of the companies I owed. I asked them who they mumbled something and said payday loan. I stated that the pay day loan from payday one is paid. They stated you requested a loan and it was put into your account. We will see you in court. I came home and there was a message and phone number. I called them they answer how can I help you. I asked him I had a call I owed a bill, I would like to know who I owed. He mumbled something and said pay day loan. I asked him to spell it for me. He replied that I owed the company and I need to pay them. I asked for the phone number of the company he told me he can not give it to me. I told him how you expect me to pay something I know nothing about. He told me in two days te police will come to my house and get me.

I called back and he answered i have talked to him around 2 times with no answers so I asked to be speak to a manager he said he was the manager and he will see me in court not to call back. I called back asked to speak to the man that left the message nicholas. he asked was I me I told him no i was sharon davis nicholas got on I told him who I was the manager got back on and said call better business bearu cause I calling on you. I called back got a lady I asked her the name of the company and that is when she said cash today i asked her to look up my account and see who I owed she said she coul not. I said to her you work there Just see who I owe.

See this whole time I thought they were a agency collecting a debt. She told me I would have to talk to the person who called me. I told her I could not understand him. She asked me my name and told me to hold on that is when the manager got back on and said Why are you doing this. I told him your sending the police after me and I don't know why. He told me cause I refuse to pay my debt. I once again asked who I owed he said tjf corporation I asked the phone number he said he could not give it to me cause iwas very ignorant to him. I told him I was upset because your not giving me the information I need. I asked him the name of his company he told me. Investigation OF CRIME DEPARTMENT TGF CORPORATION in JACKSONVILLE FLORIDA. HE TOLD ME NOT TO CALL AGAIN IN 2 DAYS THE POLICE WILL PICK ME UP.

I am very upset because I know I paid those pay day people I owned and they deposit them into your bank we can get bank statements They never told me what day it was. I felt nervous about the police coming until I looked it up on this computer and see everyones remarks. If that lady would'nt have told me the name cash today I would not know what was going on. I was worried about the police coming

All this started by checking my mail and as I click to open or to open the website it atomatically agrees to pay. Im sure when the payday loans were offered back then I had requested to borrow from one. Well it lead to a huge argument and threats at my work. I was told I was going to be arrested or taken to go to court. The best one was the message from my co worker that almost lead to loosing my goverment job. I have 24 hours or I will be arrested.

Well this was from 2005 I was going threw my account and putting all my bills on dirrect withdrawl. As my back called to notify me that they were changing names thats when I got a call to be arrested for no payment or other threats. My heart almost stopped as I was determined to set my application to sherrifs department. Theres no way I will have anything showing that I owe.

I payed them off gave my account account number then I have another call later next year I closed my account to cover my tracks due to the fact I never received anything threw the mail regarding my payment. I emedialtly changed my account number and Now I get a phone call again saying I cant make arragement to pay the total by payment they will directly withdrawl 40.00 from my account. I just didnt want to put my carrer on hold so now Im doing the research.

I think these guys need to be charged for harrasment. I want my e-mail to be the last of these guys. I just cant believe how I ended working two jobs to get payment resolved and now Im getting calls again from the same people how I know they all sound from another country. I asked for numbers and supervisors and they had background playing like phones ring. I asked for adress no they just wanted to call my office.

I almost had a heart attack. I was depressed. I was robbed and humiliated.

In 2005 I took a 200.00 loan with cash today ltd,the conversation over the phone was that this loan would be paid off in 3 months, 40.00 interst every 2 weeks and 50.00 towards the loan every 2 weeks.to this day this loan was never paid off, I paid over 3200 on this loan, 40.oo every 2 weeks on interest gor 200.00 dollars.

I call the number I had from my e-mail from them, I told this lady who I couldn't understand her english that I wanted a copy of all the debits they have taken from my account, due to I was going to file a chapter 13. she told me that they don't give any documents or statements, she was screaming that she didn't care about the chapter 13 and that for me to pay off the loan, she stated I owe 305.00. I told her how do I owe 305.00 when I already paid 3200 for a short term loan of 200.00 dollars. She started to scream and told me that if I didn't pay off and I put this debt in my chapter 13, they will contact my employer, my co-workers and file a criminal suit against me. She also refused to give me there address or a fax number where I can fax them a letter revoking any futher payments from my account.

This has been a scam off ilegal loaning, I have been stressed and will be emotionally distresed as they start making harrasing phone calls to my job, I will have to close all my bank accounts because they don't follow any laws and they will clean my bank account. I am also being force to pay an amount that I don;t owe them. I work for a big hospital and I can't be getting harrasing calls or calls to my peers.

I got in trouble with the whole payday loan thing in 2007. I eventually had to close out my bank account. One of the lenders I must have taken a loan out with was Cash Today. A man calling himself Craig called me today and began yelling at me about what I owed. He said I took out a 200 loan and now I owed 2,000 and he was going to keep calling back until I paid them. He called me at work. He would not let me get a word in. He started threatening me, all of this while I'm at work.

I asked for something in writing about what I owed so that I could give the information to a debt consolidation company I am working with. He said they couldn't do that because it was a verbal contract. He demanded to speak to my manager. I hung up on him a couple of times. Finally, he told me to call the customer service number. They also told me they couldn't give me anything in writing. So I got their fax number and address, typed up a cease and decist letter faxed it over and will be sending it to their address certified mail.

I tried to be discrete while I was at work, but I'm sure people heard me on the phone with this guy. It was quite embarrasing. I offered to work with them through my debt consolidation company, but they didn't want to hear it.
