got a call from this #, said I was approved for a loan I applied for on line last night
funny I never applied on line for a loan (who in their right mind would do that on line)
not to mention I was in ER 46 hours, before and after that time frame.
Have received calls also about a vehicle loan that I "applied for online". I have not answered any of these calls... but did have 34 missed calls in a three hour period!
I filed a police report and Att General complaint form in California. I plan to file a lawsuit as well . I am trying to find out as much information about this call center . I will make it a class action suit if anyone wants to follow me.
You receive a call saying they will loan you money, but you have to pay a fee upfront?
That is illegal:
http://www.consumer.ftc.gov/features/feature-0022-financial-educators
"If the offer of the loan is made by phone but you have to pay before you get access to any money, it’s illegal. It’s illegal for companies doing business in the U.S. by phone to promise you a loan and ask you to pay for it before they make good on their promise."
I'm getting these calls, too, from a variety of numbers. File a complaint at http://www.consumerfinance.gov/ with as much info as you can gather. Name of the company, address, phone numbers, agent's name, account number. I have gotten 30+ calls in 3 days, and lots of hang-ups.
