      I received a loan from balance credit for $1500, I was able to pay back over $500 before I had a personal issue and could not continue the high interest payments. The maximum loan amount in ************** for a payday loan is $550, this loan never should have existed. This is predatory, illegal lending. I want this account removed from my name and credit report.

      I called in the balance credit in April, asking if they offered any hardship programs due to a death in the family and medical issues. I was told they would defer all my payments until June 6 and that would be when my payment would be due. I thanked them. I was told I would have no collection activity and that was stated and confirmed on the first call from the manager **** in collections. I asked if I had no payments due, why am I being transferred to collections? I was told that my account is in collections when no payment is being made and that I wasn't being reported to the credit bureau. I would never have agreed to this if I knew they planned on reporting me to the credit bureau. How do you tell a customer there is no collection activity when in fact your policy is to report them and I am being considered late? This whole process isn't transparent, and I was misled. I would like to make a payment on June 6th, and I will pay this in full on 06/20. I want this account deleted from my credit report.

      I received an email and a text message stating that I owed a late payment of $224.32 on a loan. It proceeded to provide a link that stated it was different from the regular website portal because by clicking the link you were seamlessly logged in to your account. I did not click the link. I do not now, nor have I ever had a loan or line of credit with this company. I had never even heard of them until receiving the email. I checked my credit report and sure enough, they had reported I had opened an account with them and owed $2315. I have emailed the company directly via their website informing them i have no loan or anything with them and requesting all copies of documents (if they have any) of this supposed debt, and haven't gotten a response yet.

      I am filing this complaint against *************************** Balance Credit, and National Debt Holdings. A fraudulent account was opened in my name and reported to ********** under Balance Credit. This account is a result of identity theft. I have never opened or authorized this account, and I have filed a police report and identity theft affidavit. Despite my clear communication to ************************** that I am a victim of identity theft, their representatives (****** ****** and ***** London) continued to pursue payment and sent additional communications via text message and phone calls after I asked them to stop. They failed to verify my identity at the beginning of the call and refused to provide timely documentation or a physical mailing address for the company. In addition, I was quoted a debt of $3,099, which is significantly higher than the $2,007 listed on my TransUnion credit report suggesting potential misrepresentation or deceptive practices.This situation has caused emotional distress, damaged my credit, and harmed my reputation. I am demanding the immediate removal of this account from my credit report and appropriate corrective action by all parties involved. Failure to comply will result in ongoing legal action. I have already filed complaints with the ************************ (***), the Consumer Financial ***************** (CFPB), and the Better Business Bureau (BBB). I am also preparing to initiate a civil lawsuit against all parties involvedincluding the credit bureausfor violations of federal consumer protection laws, emotional distress, and credit harm.Please govern yourselves accordingly. I am including a copy of my police report, affidavit of identity theft, and the credit report screenshot showing the false listing for your reference.A response and confirmation of deletion is required immediately and upon receipt of this notice.Thank you.

      I received a loan from Balance Credit on 10/22/24 and have now realized that ******* is using a "rent-a-bank" scheme with this loan as they are charging usury rates of interest which are higher than what is allowed in my state. Not only that, but this lender is also not licensed in *******, which is where I reside.I have attached documentation of what interest rate this company is charging me as well as what is legally allowed in my state, which they knew where I lived as it was on my loan application and agreement. I would like to know what they're going to do to resolve this issue. I am $12 away from paying off the principal completely and because they are not licensed in my state, I'm legally not required to pay the principal nor the interest. However, I will pay the remaining $12 and would like this account closed.

Unfortunately, ******, **********************, SunUp Financial, and whatever other names the company wishes to go by are not on Indiana's listing for lenders licensed in the state...not even on the suspended or revoked. If they're not a licensed lender in my state, how is this legal? Pretty sure if you're lending money in a state, you need a lender's license to legally do so.
