Description
I applied for a loan online. I was approved but said to make a pre auth payment of $75 in order for this to go through. I did so. I heard nothing. Received no money. When i contacted the company again i was told my information was wrong and they needed another $75 in order for the new application to go through. I said to cancel the loan and to return my money. They will now not return it and said it can take up to 7 days.
