I am looking for other people who have been victims of 800 Loan Mart in the past year. I made the poor choice in taking out a title loan from them. I have been harassed on many levels. My car has been repoed unlawfully. Loan Mart has been unlawfully doing business for years and they need to be stopped.

I am lucky enough to have an attorney that is filing a class action lawsuit against them. Anyone out there PLEASE contact me ASAP. We are looking for more victims to get them help also.

Please e-mail me at [protected]@hotmail.com This law suit will be filed within the next few days.

The rate is 120%. You have no idea what you are talking about. Class action suits will be filed. These guys are scam artists and crooks. I would not be surprised that you are loan mart posting this comment. You will be sorry if you get a loan through them.

I am in the process of getting a car title loan from them right now. They have the best rates out there, and they seem to be very nice and helpful. If your paying your payment past the due date, then they have every right to come and take your car. Dont sue someone because you cant keep an agreement. Pay your bill on time, then they wont come and take your car. Its not rocket science.

Apparently you have enough money. Before you show how ignorant you are you might want to know they give them to people they know can't pay it back. Those who can don't need a title loan. They prey on people on SSI, Welfare as well as any low income people. They charge you (at least in my city) $400 a month. Mind you people on SSI in California get approximately $850 a month. Knowing this would you give them a load of any kind and charge $400 a month? It doesn't take a smart person to see how that doesn't compute. These are their victims. Not people who can afford those payments so they prey on the poor. Not to mention on $2500 you are paying back roughly $8, 000 that doesn't include the daily interest. The interest never stops so there is no way you will ever be able to pay off the loan without paying of the full amount of the loan. I should say I hope you are never in a bad situation and need a loan but I can't.

This person works for 1800LoanMart. It's not that she can't make her monthly payments it's the unlawful interest increases and payment increases that they put on the customer.
Yeah! Get your loan and make your required payments and let's see what happens.

I need to find out how to go about sueing this company. They are trying to make me pay an additional $1400.00 on my loan. On their statements it never shows your outstanding balance just what is currently owed! Stay away from these legalized loan sharks!

Margaret, how do I become a part of the class action lawsuit? I borrowed $2812 from them in 2010 and made my 28 payments of $302.15 (125% interest rate). yes, I was late on several of my payments and now they tell me I owe then additional $1400. their statements never show any of your balances like principal paid, interest paid, etc. I asked for a printout of where my payments went and it was amazing how little of my payments went towards the principal. no way of knowing if this is a true amorization or something they create in order to claim that you still owe more principal. they accepted a settlement of $700, but will not work with me towards paying that in installments. what difference does it make? they still get the $700 whether it is in one payment or several payments. they will have $9100 back from the $2812 that I borrowed. would love to have that kind of return when I go to vegas. if I don't pay by tomorrow, 2/15/13, the deal is off. it is nothing but bs when they say want to work with you. jdgallo2000@yahoo.com

I have a loan with 800 loan mart the problem i have is the interest rate I owe $12, 000 my payments are $558 I have paid $2, 000 my balance is 12, 228. I ask the girl why is that she your paying on the interest so it comes out to $14 dollars a day $434. and 124. to the loan so you can see how they make there money. If your going to sue them sue them on the interest rate I would talk to someone from the State to see what the law is on interest rate Banks can not charge they kind of rate's I have to make my payment because they will sell your car and what ever they get for it you my have to make up the balance. I would like to look into finding out the interest rate and how they come to that Thats what should be done with your lawyer so the fight should be on the interest rate if they bring it down then they have to pay back all the money you put into the loan Don't you think ? i don't mind getting back some of that money back Thing about it

This is the practices from an Ex Employee

I used to work for 1 800 loXn Mart, and its true. I was a collections agent for 1 year. I was instructed on numerous occasions to break the rules for the company. We did countless illegal practices and were trained by our Managers. We had limitless resources that helped us get personal information from the DMV, Phone companies, DWP, and employers. We had a phone system that would allow us to hack into your cell phone and access your voice mails. We had a phone scrambler that would allow us to call you with any Caller Id we chose, including your mothers phone.

We had access to your social security number so we would be able to call your mortgage and phone companies and have them give us confidential information. One of the requirements to get the loXn is provide your last phone bill. We called all the numbers you would call most often and harass them too.

If you were not late on your payment, you still got ripped off because the lowest interest rate they gave was 74% not 7.4 74, after they convinced you the loXn would only cost you ten dollars a month. People who had trouble paying their loxns on time were urged to take out a new debt or change the due date. This was a trap to get them a new balance. Every loxn costed $875 regardless if you paid it the same day. That fee was reinstated to their debt for doing a re debt.

Please every one read your contracts. Do not let the debt officers tell you their pitch, remember benefit from you signing the loXn

I also got a title loan through loanmart. I have been paying on my loan now for 4 years scared to miss a payment. I still have several years to pay on my and I now am looking to consolidate the loan with someone else for a better interest rate if I can get in on this I said I'll help in any way I can however they have worked with me on billing dates and things like that moving them around and one month I needed help so they split the bill in half and I can make it up on the end. Still doesn't help every month when the bill comes due and only a portion is going to the principal.

Hello,
Ok..so as of today.. I have paid over 10k on my loan.. I changed the bill date on it..to better fit my budget and expense due dates.. Then after 3 years borrowed 500.00 additional..which according to the contract now pushed me out til July 2022.. So if u do the math and my interest rate is 125% of the loan..9.95 per day.. I will end up paying triple the amount of what i originally purchases it for in 2007. My loan would have been paid off this year july 2018.. Had I not took the extra 500.00 out. Now my last statement said i owed 4, 275.00 and my loan was to be paid off July 2018 at 281.62... Somehow that dont add up! Now my new loan amount is 338.72 and will be paid off. July 2018... Do the math!
Class action lawsuit needs to start! Sign me up! Monte_carlo07@yahoo.com
I know this car has bee paid off already even if you add up total amount paid.. Ive read that you get a title loan for 3 to 4 year contract.. It will never get paid off because of the interest that builds Every day..
So i basically will never see my title again.. You will end up forcing to give the car up.
I filed a complaint with BBB as well... Lets see what kinda answer they have for me.
Email me to sign class action..

My daughter in law applied for a loan and never got it! she sent in the wrong title to the car as my son didnt realize there was a different title. Without contacting her via phone and email ( she received the email the day the car was taken) they confescated her car! no lien placed on the car or title and no payments due yet. I have spoken with several supervisors at loan mart and gotten no where! they are demanding $500 dollars and the title to release the car not to mention the title is in the car where it is being held and we cannot access it and they are sending her car to auction! no lien has been placed on this car and i want this corruption resolved! i have already been placed into a class action suit against loan mart and i will go all the way up to the top of the corruption at the bank as this is highly illegal and corrupt! i want a resolution yesterday!
