What can I do?

Will they settle with the person after they default? What about storefront loans??
Thanks for helping me out with this!

Most storefront lenders are legit in their state. People must check the laws of their state before closing their checking accounts. It can be quite risky for the consumer if a legit lender has access to your bank account and is not getting their money as per the authorization given to deduct from their account. I have heard in some cases that storefront lenders are quick in filing a case at the court. Things will work out better if a consumer who has defaulted on his account works out prior arrangements with the lender and stop possible legal actions.

As Ruby said, it depends on the laws of their state. Some state's allow prosecution for closed bank accounts. The licensed lender could also sue the customer, garnish their paycheck or seize their bank account. The judgement would also go onto their credit report.
