More Success -- This Time with Mypaydayloan


Everyone -

I just got the following e-mail from Mypaydayloan. While the success is not as resounding as what I just had with Telmerica, it is, nevertheless, success.

But... I wanted to post the e-mail here to see what everyone thought. I know one thing. One of the things they mention *won't* be happening. Taking out the funds by ACH debit. NOT!!! Well, here. Read the e-mail and tell me what you think. :)

Rick

P.S. I'm *totally* blowing off their mumbo-jumbo about operating above the law.

Dear Mr. Smith,

In acknowledgment to the letter we received by fax, on September 7th, we would like to clarify the issue pertaining to the transaction you originated with our organization. We would like to point out we are incorporated in, and operate over the Internet, with our offices based out of San Jose, Costa Rica. By engaging in a transaction with us, you have availed yourself to be subject to the internal laws of Costa Rica for this particular check advance agreement. Specifically your contract states under the Governing Law section "Both this agreement and the application is considered to be executed at our offices in San Jose, Costa Rica, and this agreement with us shall be governed by, construed, and enforced solely in accordance with the internal laws of Costa Rica."

If you would not have agreed to avail yourself to this jurisdiction as the sole contract venue (which was your prerogative), you would have not been provided with the advance from our company. There is no conflict with federal regulations, and although certain states may have more restrictive regulations, when dealing with international law pertaining to contract venue, federal regulation supersedes state regulation, and this particular transaction is governed by Costa Rican law, not Louisiana law, regardless of where you reside.

Furthermore, the following disclosure can be found on all pages of our website:

This service does not constitute an offer or solicitation for short term payday loans in all states. This service may or may not be available in your particular state. The states this site services may change from time to time without notice. All aspects and transactions on this site, will be deemed to have taken place in our office in Costa Rica, regardless of where you may be viewing or accessing this site. Borrower is responsible for complying with any local statutory obligations that may exist in their state or area with respect to any transactions with Mypaydayloan.com.

Despite these facts, because of your history with us, we are willing to remove all finance fees and allow you to simply pay the principal amount of $400.00 in 8 installments of $50.00 each (to be paid biweekly). Payments will be paid through account debit. Once you have satisfied the $400.00 debt your account will be considered paid in full.

If you accept the terms of this settlement please notify us by Monday, September 11th, 2006, so that we can provide you with a special arrangement letter.
Sincerely,

Angela Smith

Well, It could have been a lot worse.. If they insist on the payment being debited, I would open a new account with your bank and use it ONLY for this purpose, thus protecting your primary account from them over drafting the account,and of course, once they have gotten their $400, you close the account. You may have to a pay a small fee if the account isn't open long enough, but its a small price to pay to prevent they from wreaking havoc on your entire financial situation.

Rick, your email worked. They are asking for the principal amount only and waiving off the fees. Don't worry about the disclosure attached. They are trying to save their business reputation. The baseline is that the company has stepped back and you will pay the principal amount only. The charges are waived off. That's good for you. Otherwise, the extra money you paid would have gone into their pockets.

LCW & Christina -

I had thought of opening an account to be used *only* for this purpose as LCW suggested. There's *no* way these sleazeballs are getting my primary account info again.

While they did back off (as Christina mentioned), what I'm struggling with is the fact that I have already paid them some money on this loan. (I can't remember if I paid them $100.00 or $200.00 so far. And I foolishly forgot to print my account information from my old account before I closed it.)So they're not really eliminating anything.

Thanks.

Rick
