I went through their application process. They said I was approved and all I need to do was send $79 via Western Union and I would get an MTCN number to collect my $500 loan. It sounds good but it's a scam.

I sent the money via Western Union and the guy told me someone will call me in 15 minutes and I could collect my loan. I never received a call. I tried to call number back, it's busy. I lost $79 I never had to begin with. Lesson learned: don't take any Payday.com loans!!!

A loan person called me and said that I was approved for $1700. But I have to send $109 for some type of fees so I can get my money through Western Union. But then, when I called back and asked what happened to my money, the lady told me, "You owe me $199," I answered, "It is a scam."

I applied for approximately 7 payday loans and was approved for each amounting from $200.00 to 500.00. This was a very tough lesson to learn and I hope to never repeat again. I became in debt and basically had to close my account with my bank because I went into debt and now owe my bank over $1700.00 dollars that accrued from the on-line loaners trying to collect and the fees and charges that went to my bank.

They also kept calling my work and I resigned because of them calling my work place. The total amount of the loans was less than a thousand dollars all together, but has cost me a job and bank closure after having a bank checking account for more than 8 years.

I have got harrassment calls from some foreign number (displayed as private call) giving my details like name and last four digits of social. The callers claimed to be attorneys and apparently a case registered against me by payday loans stating that I havent paid something to them. I did submit an application so they got my details by I never took any money from them. they have threatened me with other consequences maligning my ability to work effectively & waste of time trying to understand what is happening

I applied for a small 200.00 loan on 5/17/09 and i was told that i had to send more employment information.i am on a limited disability income,so i did not follow up.But pay day loan tried to take 33.98 out of my account.I needed the money to balance my account;so needless to say i did not have the money to cover the payment.And i am still trying to figure out what the 33.98 was for.

Now i have to pay an extra 35.00 to my bank for insufficient funds.I will try to get them for fraud, because i never received any services.I did not talk to anyone,so therefore they cannotsay that i gave them authorization to do so.Now i have to go to the bank and change my account # ,because i don't trust them.I plan to go after them for fraud.Can you help me? me more money.
