Help for drowingindebt...
drowingindebt - you need to close your bank account. that is the only way to get the PDL companies to stop debiting you. Depending on what state you are located in, they may already be under investigation there. Michigan's OFIS recently started an investigation against them, so it looks like soon we will have these horrible companies on the run, if we band together and stand strong.
Check out your state's laws regarding PDL's and see what's up there. If you need help, let us know.
Unfortunatly, you can't close a bank account that's in the negat
Unfortunatly, you can't close a bank account that's in the negative . . . And if you let it go too long your bank will put you on chexsystems, and will make it very hard for you to open a new bank account. Your bank will close the account after a month or so of a negative balance, but then you will be sent to collections for it. My advice would be to open a new bank account asap.
the bank will not close my account, file a complaint with the BB
the bank will not close my account, file a complaint with the BBB i think everyone should you can do i online, they will get point eventually

Couple days ago I applied for a PDL online from a website called credit something? I forgot the exact address. Next day I get a call from RT 66 Funding. They said I am approved for a loan, I immediately said no because I felt this wasn't right. They kept calling 3 times again. Next day I get 5 calls again, I told the lady Thanks but I don't need the loan anymore and I already told someone I talked to before that I do not want the loan. She said sorry and goodbye. I have a question though, I did not apply on their website, how do they have my information? Do you think they have my FULL information that I filled out on the other website?

More than likely, you applied with a site that "refers" you to pdls that you qualify for, and in this instance it was the slimely RT 66.
Yeah you are right. Do you think they will start taking money ou
Yeah you are right. Do you think they will start taking money out of my account even though I didn't accept any loan? I really hope they didn't get all my information!

They shouldn't, but they're very sneaky, so just monitor your account for awhile. If you see any debits you can't account for, ask your bank right away who they're from. Route 66 goes under many names. Let us know if we can be of any more help.

Folks - officially over one week later, after sending e-mails with the letter from Polly's blog and talking with Rt. 66 (and getting nowhere - they wouldn't give me a written debt validation unless I made a payment arrangement), I have heard nothing more from them. I'm going to give it another week or so before I consider the matter closed.
I'm assuming they are now aware that they are under investigation by my state (thank you Polly) and are finally backing off.

Suebeehoney70,
That's great news! I'm sure with all the complaints the AGs are getting and the fact that so many states are thinking about new laws regarding these PDLs, they're being a little more careful about stepping on too many toes. Congratulations!

after sending my letter like 60 times for the past week, i got a call from Route 66 funding they now want $450 after i already paid them $1770.00 on a 200 loan they refuse to email me saying they do not do agreements over the email, all the comunications has to be via phone.
i refused all communications via phone so the "supervisor" came on the phone and said you can pay fees forever on this loan but you will still owe the principal, i told her i file a report with the FTC, AG and BBB that did not face her a bit, i kept insisting they email me and she kept repeating the same thing over and over so i hug up on her.
what do you think will be their next action? now i'm a little scared nothing sees to face them...and i cannot closed my bank account because is overdrawn...omg

I just applied for a PDL with another company and immediately got a call from these guys. I called them back just to check (I read some these messages first!) and only confirmed my name and phone number. I told them I wasn't interested and to not call me anymore. The guy said "Ok". Having returned the call, but not giving them any other information other than my name and phone number, is it possible that I may be in trouble with them anyway? They sound pretty shady based on your comments, so now I'm kinda paranoid. Can anyone tell me anything about my situation? Am I ok or not? :(
learn the new collections law that went into effect this year.
learn the new collections law that went into effect this year. they don't have to stop collection activities while they are validating debt. guess you have to find another rock to hide behind and another relative to steal from.

Guest,
No one here is hiding behind rocks - we are all in the same boat (more or less) of having made the mistake of using PDL companies in a time of need. None of us dispute the fact that we owe the original debt - what we DO dispute is the fact that these companies (especially internet PDL's) are mostly unlicensed, charging illegal interest rates, and harrass their "clients" into paying much more than is required by law.
Also, we are fully aware that collection activities do not have to stop during debt validation, but when a company will not even validate the debt they say is owed, in writing (which is required by the law you're so fond of referring to), it is impossible to consider doing further business with them.
If you have something useful to contribute, by all means, please feel free to do so.

i think the guest works for PDL company and is upset because the commision checks are getting smaller and smaller every month.
Guest, you are entitled to your own opinion, i was told once if you don't have anything nice to say don't anything at all.

I've been getting these same phone calls. I got three in a row this morning at work. I told them repeatedly that I didn't apply for a $200 loan and to stop calling me. Haven't received a call in 40 mins, but I'm afraid they'll keep bugging me. How to make these calls stop ASAP!? I'm not trying to get fired because they have no respect.... It was my mistake for giving out my work number, but this is annoying as heck. Help!

I had this exact experience with Route 66! I never applied for a loan and one night the REPEATEDLY called me insisting I take a loan and became irate with me when I turned them down. I eventually told them I was calling the police in my jurisdiction as wel as their's and filing harassment charges. They hung up and didn't call back.

Route 66 calls me every day on my cell and at work. I never even got a loan from them and they harrass me. I have yelled at them and told them to take me off there calling list several times. They called me on Thanksgiving and the morning after and I am in retail so we were busy. I again yelled and told them to take me off there list which he said he would do. And what do you know I received a phone call today. I told him I want to speak to a manager and he said oh he just left. So he told me I would be taken off the list. I'm sure I will receive a phone call tomorrow. I am so glad I didn't get a loan from them. I feel bad for all of you that did. I'm sure you get the phone calling 10x worse.
Tell him that if he calls one more time you are contacting the a
Tell him that if he calls one more time you are contacting the authorities. That worked for me, they called REPEATEDLY every 5 minutes one evening.
I received the e-mail from Rt. 66 last Wednesday that said I nee
I received the e-mail from Rt. 66 last Wednesday that said I needed to contact them within 2 days or they'd start calling "third parties", if I didn't verify my employment, etc. with them. I have already made my settlement offer to them. They chose not to accept it. I've attempted to discuss this on the phone with them, asked repeatedly for a validation of my debt, and they will not provide it unless I make a "payment arrangment". They are not licensed in my state, do not have a valid contract according to the laws in my state, and are charging usurious interest rates according to the laws of my state. As yet, I have not received a phone call at work, at home, or anywhere else, nor has my supervisor, my payroll department or anyone else.
Has anyone had them make phone calls to anyone at their workplace other than to you? I haven't seen anyone post that this company actually followed through with contacting someone's supervisor or payroll department.
If they bother to call me again, I will simply tell them the same thing as I did before, and we can go around and around as much as they want.
An Update on my Route 66 Situation
Still haven't heard a word from them in almost a month now. Yeah! I see that some others have followed my lead with the numerous e-mails and faxes, keep it up! Don't get discouraged! Do whatever you have to do, just keep harassing them the way they did you! I also used the letter from Pollyandsays blog and after about 300 copies sent to them, they have left us alone!

they tried to contact my supervisor but they couldn't get past the receptionist !!!LOL
i got a call from "Wendy" this morning when i picked up she was speaking spanish to someone, so i started to talk toher in spanish and she said sory i dont understand you(??!!!??)
so i said i heard you speak in spanish, who are you, what do you want (in spanish) and she hung up LMAO

well the dont seem to get the point since they have called my job 3 times today with differet names.
the last call from "john" said he had just hung up with me and needed to go over the "transcript" (LOL) they really think i'm at work...than they call me an hung up.
i have this feeling is going to be a long fight with these guys. is there really a light at the end of the tunnel with these people?
thanks for the info
i recently applied with them and when they called me so of my info was on the appl was misspelled so they told me that i would have to go back online and start the appl over but whenever i go to route 66 funding it wont submit my appl somehow, i guess that worked out in my favor

i wonder what that's all about...my thought is that the collectors are getting tired of calling so they probably saying they called and "we" refuse the call but they have to record in their system that the call was made...that's the only thing i can think of.

I just recently obtained a loan from this company before reading all of these posts. Out of curiosity, did anyone attempt to pay it in full on the due date? I just called and spoke to a representative and said to take the entire loan amount out. Is it possible that they still could debit more than that?
Could someone who knows more about the applicable federal laws e
Could someone who knows more about the applicable federal laws explain to me why a national bank, such as Wachovia, would not just reject any attempted deposits and debits from this company. It seems like a national bank would have had hundreds of complaints from its customers by now.
Not taking into consideration the applicable laws, but simply using common sense, I would just refuse to do business with this company if my bank customers had so many complaints of this horrific conduct on Route66's part.
thanks for saving me
they called me saying i was approve for 200 then hung up on me i saw your site and told them to take me off there thing and let me find out they take money from me when i never got money from them i will be one mean pregant women thanks everyone for the heads up
