My g/f has before and this month though we paid it all up in full to be able to handle all of our other bills better next month. Well, they sent my g/f a letter saying that since she's had an other account with them before, they're wanting to let her borrow some more money for Mother's Day. LOL YEAH RIGHT!!! Yeah, like we're going to fall for it. LOL They try to get people to borrow more money every time they pay their loans off. They said that she could be able to borrow up to $3500 dollars, if she just give them a call and they could go from there. $Hit! I hate them stupid loan companies! I'm thinking about calling them tommorrow and tell them to shove that $3500 dollars up where i can't! LOL Here last month, they were harrassing us to death to get us to make some sort of payment at least of $50 to catch it up for the month, and than her account will be in good standings. and i called down there and told them that we only get paid once a month and that was the only way that we could get any kind of money to pay for it. we were behind like one freaking monthwith them, and they were throwing a hissy fit over it. and i'm not surprised that if she did call them, they'd only say that she could get only $300 for it. they throw in the $3500 hundred thinking that people are so stupid, that they cannot figure it out for themselves of what it is. makes me so durn mad to see these kind of letters come into the box and i just wanna throw them away, or throw the letter in their face and tell them to shove it up their ***! So, have you ever borrowed any money from loan companies? and if so, how did they treat you after you paid your amount off in full? i'm just wondering on other opinions here, as i would like to know what everybody thinks about stupid loan companies that love to take you for a ride of a lifetime of ruining your finance monthly income, and making your life a living H#LL. LOL Let's Talk about bashing the loan companies down today here at Mylot! LOL

Yup, I did a few years ago. Then I got it paid off, they offered more, and like an iddiote I took it. I eneded up having an ongoing account with them for almost a year, till I realized the more I borrowed the further behind I was getting. I eventually moved away and haven't been back to those places since.

LOL I've done that before. I would pay it off, and than borrow more! LOL But than i learned that i had to quit doing that to be able to have more money in the long run. Now, that my g/f borrowed money from them, we desperately needed the money and than got ourselves in a hole AGAIN. but, than this month i paid it off, and told her that we were not going to borrow no more again ever. b/c all it is is just trouble every way around. Good for you edgyk8inmomma for not going back to those places again after you moved away from your town that you were in. just keep them off of you and you'll be alright.

My husband and I borrowed a few hundred dollars from a loan company last year to cover wedding and honeymoon expenses. Once we had made a couple of payments on it, the loan officer would call us every month to let us know we could borrow more money! I was like, I am trying to pay this off...not get deeper in debt! I can honestly say that we are in a much better situation, and I have my own online business now, I don't have to worry about borrowing money any more!

that's the way to go Girl! You go girl! LOL great deal after you paid the loan off, and i hear ya about the loan officer calling ya'll every month a-saying, "you can borrow more money if you'd like, and we'll just add it to your existing account here that you have which will in the long run help you out more." YEAH, RIGHT! YOU SORRY @SSHOLES! Don't they know that some of us out there can go-figure things like that??? they try to talk us into borrowing more money and getting in debt deeper and deeper. That's why half of Americans are in debt up to their heels now! is cause of these stupid loan sharks! LOL i told my g/f that we're not ever going to fool with them again. and i don't care if we're sitting here at the house with no food in our cabinets! i'll go and ask my mother to loan us some money to get by through the rest of the month, and at least she won't throw no darn interests on me! LOL That's what breaks up the people right there, you know? and them loan officers thinks that we are so stupid and that we will fall for it. NOT! LOL I've learned my lesson from borrowing from them this time. and i'm not going to again! LOL Thanks for responding Kecia08 and have a beautiful day!
