Please note this company is violating the law and operating illegally. They have broken the following laws mentioned below : XXXX Wrongful credit practices and related offenses. XXXX Prohibitions for licensees. As a New Jersey resident, these laws need to be followed. This company is unlicensed to operate in Alaska and NJ. They are also operating as an illegal rent a tribe company which is a common scheme amongst tribal loan companies. In New Jersey, the 30 % usury limit is well within an affordable range for most consumers, making the traditional payday lending trap illegal. XXXX XXXX loan agreement is unenforceable in state courts, including New Jerseys. They need a specific lending license to operate in each state, and this tribal lender doesnt have a license to operate in the state of NJ. As a result, they cant sue me in a court that has any authority to garnish my wages or force me to pay. XXXXXXXX XXXX is illegally charging me 634.56 % in interest which I did not agree to. The XXXX XXXX is 30 % which they did not abide by. Its illegal to make a loan without a license. If youre not licensed, the loan is not collectable and its not enforceable. The dirty little secret among online payday lenders who violate state laws is that they can not win in state court. If someone makes you a loan thats illegal, either because they dont have a license or they violate usury laws, youre not under any obligation to pay it back. Regardless of the company youve borrowed from, payday lenders must be licensed, or the loan is not collectable. If they are breaking the law by lending wrongfully ( i.e. without a license ), you are not under any obligation to pay it back. Therefore, I am not under any obligation to pay them back. This all started from a loan application I downloaded from my app store and the emails/calls/texts began to flood in. In times of need, consumers/borrowers are not only being taken advantage of but lied to about the interest rates. I had no idea that lenders had to be licensed in the state the consumer/borrower is located until I began my research. I had no clue that most of these lenders are operating illegally and lying about being affiliated with Native American Tribes to XXXX and steal from vulnerable people by charging between XXXX % XXXX % in interest to evade the law. They assume that people will not research their legal rights and pay blindly. Sadly, most do. NJ enforces the statutes that protect consumers against predatory lenders. The New Jersey payday loan / tribal loan laws are much more restrictive than the regulations in other parts of the country. Theyre one of only XXXX states that have banned the practice outright via reasonable rate caps. Fortunately, there are laws aimed at protecting borrowers against loan sharks and other predatory lenders. These laws cap interest rates, ban discriminatory practices, and even outlaw some types of lending. New Jersey notes that tribal lenders are not exempt from state laws relative to lending including rate caps and that any exemption for tribal sovereignty only governs loans issued on tribal land, rather than loans issued over the internet. They take advantage of people like me in desperation for financial assistance. I also never gave them authorization to take debit card payments from my account or ACH. I would call in the payments and they proceeded to charge my debit card without my consent. The faux tribal payday lending model has always been based on the mistaken belief that payday lenders could evade state laws by hiding behind Native American tribes. The Supreme Court has long made clear that tribes must obey state law when they operate off reservation, and that is true of online tribal payday lenders as well. This decision follows the path laid out by the Supreme Court in a 2014 decision showing how to enforce state law against purportedly tribal entities.

Dear Lender, It has come to my attention that payday lenders must be licensed by the state of Florida in order to offer loans to its residents. Since your company has no license in my state, the loan contract I have with you is not valid. Under Florida statutes, usury is defined as the charging ( whether paid or not ) of interest that exceeds 18 percent on loans, lines of credit, advances of money or any obligation of amounts up to {$500000.00}, and that exceeds 25 percent for transactions involving amounts totaling more than {$500000.00}. Although I am not legally required to do so, I am willing to repay the principal balance of this loan. To date, I received a deposit of {$750.00}, and have had 16 bi-weekly withdrawals of {$170.00} debited from my account. This results in a principal balance of {$2700.00}. This results in an overpayment of {$2000.00}. At this time I am requesting a return email acknowledging that my loan has been paid in full. Also, I would like a refund of the {$220.00} overpayment. A refund check of {$2000.00} should be mailed to me at the address you have on file. I hereby revoke any and all ACH authorizations with your company from debiting any of my personal accounts, per Federal law, Regulation E Section 205.10 Pre-authorized transfers. I revoke any and all wage assignments I may or may not have signed with your company, I no longer authorize you, your company, or your affiliates to attach any part of my wages or contact my employer for your collection purposes. I have notified my employer about this matter so any attempts to do so on your part will be rejected. I demand that any contact be made through email only. I will need everything in writing to keep accurate records of all communication as per instruction from my Attorney General 's Office. I prohibit you or your affiliates to contact me via telephone at my place of employment or my home telephone number. I also prohibit you from calling my references listed on my loan. I must also inform you that I will be filing complaints with the XXXX XXXX, the Federal Trade Commission, and Floridas Attorney General 's Office. I expect a response from your company no later than 5 days from the above date regarding this matter. This response may only come via US Postal mail or email. No telephone contact is permitted. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

On XX/XX/XXXX, an ACH Deposit was made into my bank account with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in the amount of {$1000.00} by BlueTrustLoans, run by Hummingbird Funds, LLC. I did not, nor have I ever, made a loan request to BlueTrustLoans. On XX/XX/XXXX, I noticed this deposit after reviewing my bank account. I called and spoke with 2 separate customer service representatives at BlueTrustLoans. The second customer service representative assured me that a fraud investigation would be opened and I gave them my full name, the name of my bank, and my account number. I was told that they would do the investigation and call me back the same day. They never called. When XXXX XXXX lobby opened, I called them. I gave them the ACH transfer number of the deposit from BlueTrustLoans and they investigated with their ACH department and found that the intended recipient had transposed a number in their own bank account and had erroneously used mine in their loan application instead. The bank informed me that they would reverse the transaction by EOB. My records show that this reversal was successful. The same day I froze my credit with the 3 major credit bureaus. On XX/XX/XXXX, an ACH Withdraw was made from my bank account with XXXX in the amount of {$150.00} by BlueTrustLoans. On XX/XX/XXXX, I noticed this withdrawal after reviewing my bank account. I called BlueTrustLoans to find out why money had been withdrawn from my bank account, but as I do not, and still do not, have an account with BlueTrustLoans they could not help me further than calling my bank with me on the line, even after giving them my name, my bank 's name, and my account number. As I contacted BlueTrustLoans outside of my bank 's operating hours, they could not do anything other than promise a callback in the morning, where we would contact my bank together to get to the bottom of this issue.

On XX/XX/2018, I was loaned {$420.00} by this company. The money was sent to my XXXX XXXX account via ACH direct deposit. While I knew the interest rate was high, I did not understand that it was 639.17 %. The first payment on the loan was automatically debited from my checking account on XX/XX/18 in the amount of {$210.00}. On XX/XX/18 at XXXX XXXX pacific time, I contacted the lender and requested the loan payoff amount. I was told that the soonest the loan payoff could be processed is XX/XX/18 and that the payoff amount would be more than {$420.00}. I agreed to the payoff amount and have authorized the loan payoff to be debited from bank account electronically. I asked the loan representative to send me a statement that includes the following details : The date of the loan, the amount of the loan, the payment that was made, the total amount of interest and fees I was charged and confirmation that the loan has been paid in full. I was told that the only statement I will receive is an email stating the loan is paid in full. This company is funding loans in California that are illegal and in direct violation of California 's predatory lending laws. The company is cloaking itself and its actions by claiming the loan is governed ONLY by the laws of the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and no other State or Federal laws are applicable. I do not believe this is the case and would like confirmation that their claims are true. I was backed into a corner financially and felt that I had no choice but to accept the funds offered by this lender. They took advantage of my desperation and I have paid dearly for it.

My wife and I have gotten into a nasty cycle of payday lenders. We currently have two loans with Blue Trust Loans, aka Hummingbird Funds , LLC, one for my wife and one for myself. My loan was originally for {$2000.00}. The paperwork states that the APR is 406.57 % and that by the time I have repaid the loan, I will have paid {$7100.00}. When I make a payment of {$730.00}, I pay {$680.00} toward interest and {$49.00} toward the principal. I have only made the initial payment at this point, at the end of XXXX, for {$520.00}, with {$37.00} going to principal and {$480.00} going to interest. My wife 's loan was originally for {$400.00}. The paperwork states that the APR is 732.74 % and that by the time we have repaid the loan, we will have paid {$1400.00}. When we make a payment of {$730.00}, I pay {$680.00} toward interest and {$49.00} toward the principal. We have two payments remaining. We have paid {$890.00} so far. This is, as you might imagine, unsustainable. It has also come to my attention that these interest rates are far higher than what is legal in the State of Colorado, as well as the fact that they are not licensed to do business in the State of Colorado. I have put a stop payment on these payments until I can get something figured out, but I was advised to contact your office. This is very time-sensitive, as the screenshots I will send you indicate that they plan to submit the full balance of the loans to our bank at the end of the month, and those payment amounts are not covered by the stop payments we authorized with our bank. Please help.

The organization goes by the name of Blue Trust Loans. I filled out a form posted on their website. Then I received a phone call from someone in their Customer Service department. They asked me to verify the information I had made online.They also asked what dates I was paid on. I was told that for the {$500.00} loan if I paid it back before the first payment was due I would owe {$650.00}. If not there would be 6 payments - the first {$150.00} and then 5 payments of {$160.00}. Which I have paid. The payments where taken by a company called Hummingbird. On XX/XX/2018 I went to my credit union to close the account for a reason not connected to this. Then on XX/XX/XXXX I got a phone call from Blue Trust that a payment was returned to them. I told them ( XXXX ) that I had made the 6 payments and had the transaction report from my bank. She proceeded to tell me that I owed another 6 payments of {$160.00} that is additional interest. I requested they send me an email that stated all this. It has never been received even though I have asked 3 times now. I told her that this was not what was explained to me and that my next phone call was going to be to an Attorney. On Wednesday XX/XX/XXXX they ( XXXX ) called on my employers main client line. They have been calling my cell phone from a " Private number '' and then leave a message with different phone numbers to call them at - XXXX and XXXX. They have shown that they are misleading on the loan and have a deceptive business practice.

Took a {$400.00} loan out with Blue Trust Loans. It was explained what the payment plan was to pay off this amount. No explanation of interest amount was shared with me. Only thing explained was that a payment of {$75.00} would be my first payment and 6 additional payments of {$100.00} would be taken out of my bank account. After the XXXX full payment is made, the loan would be paid in full. I spoke with a representative of Blue Trust Loans tonight, XX/XX/18 and was informed I still have 6 more months of bi-weekly payments of {$100.00}. I explained to the gentleman that they did not fully explain that I would be paying over 400 % interest on a {$400.00} loan. There is no way possible I would take a loan out with interest that outrageous. The dates they have received payments are as follows : XX/XX/18 - depositedv {$400.00}, XX/XX/18 - withdrew {$75.00}, XX/XX/18 - {$100.00}, XX/XX/18 - {$100.00}, XX/XX/18 - {$100.00}, XX/XX/18 - {$100.00}, XX/XX/18 - {$100.00}. Again, all they ever explained to me was the 1st payment of {$75.00} and 6 additional payments of {$100.00} and then the loan would be paid in full. I feel I am a victim of fraud by this company. If, at all possible, help me resolve this issue, as I feel I should not have to pay the outrageous interest they are charging me. I have already half the amount in interest on my {$400.00} loan and feel that is adequate.

In late XX/XX/2020, while struggling in the mist of the pandemic due to loss of hours at my job and some unexpected costs, a disgusting company called blue trust loans preyed upon my desperation by deliberately misleading me into and and extremely high interest rate loan. On XX/XX/2020 I was approved of a loan from them in a time of need under the impression that the XXXX dollar loan that I was approved for would be paid off with interest with 6 payments of XXXX dollars on top of the initial XXXX dollar fee. Now I have made all those payments, and come to find out to my shock and horror I still owe XXXX. In fact if I continue to pay at the same rate my total payment will amount to over XXXX for a XXXX dollar loan. If I knew this was the case under no circumstances would I have taken this loan even in that moment or desperation. Blue trust loans is a company that deliberately misleads people in order to bind them to an extremely high interest loan and they should be held accountable. The only thing they have offered me is to pay the remaining XXXX upfront to avoid further fees/principal but I can not afford that and even if I could I would still ultimately be paying far more than I initially expected. Due to what they have done I feel violated and even more financially stressed than even when I received the initial loan.

I called the company today to pay off the remaining of my principal balance. When they offer me the loan before, they said i can pay off the loan any time without any penalty. I have remaining {$640.00} on my principal balance. They said they can not process my payment because they already processing the {$190.00} payment that is due for tomorrow. So I said fine, then process the remaining {$630.00}, the remainder after that {$190.00} deductions. They said, they can not process it till Monday. Today is just Thursday. Then they said, on Monday, it will be {$660.00} and some cents. I asked, is that even after they deducts {$190.00} from my account?, they said yes. I said why is it too much. They said, because of the interest fee on those days before Monday. I said, that is why I am paying it off now, to avoid additional interests fee. They gave me a hard time over the phone. I attached the summary of the breakdown of my payments supposed to be. But this people lied about I can cancel at any time without any penalties. I have another loan that I also just paid off. They let me pay it off without question. They even made some deductions on my remaining principal balance because I was paying it off. But this company wont do that, and they have very high interest rate on top of it.

On or about XX/XX/XXXX, I acquired a loan from the above-referenced company. All my payments have been made on time. On XX/XX/XXXX, I emailed the company to inquire what my payoff was. I received the following email from them : " Dear XXXX, Thank you for your email. Please be advised that Blue Trust Loans is unable to do same day debit transactions. Your loan balance for the earliest available pay off date, XX/XX/XXXX, is {$900.00}. Please call before 4 PM EST today if you would like to have the balance be debited on XX/XX/XXXX. '' I did not pay off my loan at that time. On XX/XX/XXXX, I emailed the company to see what my current payoff would be. I received the following email : " Dear XXXX, Thank you for your email. Kindly note the amount you quoted below does not include the interest accumulated up until XX/XX/XXXX. As shown in the payment schedule {$800.00} is the ending principal after the payment is made on XX/XX/XXXX. Your loan balance on XX/XX/XXXX is {$1000.00} which includes {$800.00} as Principal and {$210.00} as Interest for the entire period. '' It would appear that my payoff amount was lower in XXXX than it is in XXXX, despite having made all my payments on time. This seems like a scam.

Hello, My name is XXXX XXXX and Im a victim of a company called Blue Trust Loans. They initially deposited {$1400.00} into my account and I told them I can pay it off in three payments. After the third payment I noticed they were still debiting my account twice for XXXX, then I immediately contacted XXXX of XXXX and they placed a temporary block and temporarily placed the funds back into my account. On XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX claims my information did not arrive in a timely matter ; however, my letter was fax to XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2019 with a OK confirmation. So Blue Trust Loans is using the old bait and switch deception to think you signed documents for 6 payments, but I clearly was shown my 3 payments : # 1 XXXX. # 2 XXXX and the final payment was for {$250.00}. Please investigate this company Im a XXXX Veteran who lives on a fixed income and cant afford to lose any money. I requested to see the contract I signed to no avail. They told me it could take up to 45 days for them to receive those documents, and as of today I have not received anything from this predictory lender. Thanks in advance

I was in a dire need for money to cover some immediate medical expenses and found this company online. I applied via phone call to Blue Trust Loans ( a.k.a. XXXX Hummingbird ) The Loan amount was for {$1300.00}. I was explained the payment plan was laid out to be 6 payments of {$370.00} taken out each payday via ACH to pay back the loan. I have now paid back over {$1800.00} to this company and called them to find out how many payments are left and to see how much principal was still left to be paid and to make arrangements to pay off the remaining principal. At that time the person at Blue Trust Loans told me I have to pay all of the interest on the loan on top of the principal which comes to a total of {$6600.00}. The APR applied to the account is 635.03 %. They will not allow me to pay off the principal on the loan and said I must pay all of the interest. I have already paid {$500.00} over the actual loan amount and they refuse to allow me to make arrangements to pay off my principal balance. This is absolutely criminal and predatory and they have to be stopped.

Due to extenuating circumstance in my immediate family, I took out a payday high interest loan with Blue Trust Loans {$1600.00}. I now realize these loans are of no benefit to working families. My father was hospitalized from XX/XX/2019 through the end of XX/XX/2019. This loan was taken out to provide needed resources to my mother with massive medical financial constraints of my father 's care. I took out what I thought to be a short term loan with hopes of an early payoff. After a few large direct debits from my bank account I examined my balance and was looking for an early payoff. There is no early payoff per se. The balance is now showing a pay in full balance of {$2400.00}!!! I refuse to pay {$2400.00} on a loan in which I have already paid over {$700.00} since XXXX. I called BlueTrust at the end of XXXX and most recently in XXXX to request a payout and payment plan to pay off the balance, they refused to update my account balance and offer a payout that aligns with my payments. They have continued to attempt drafting against my bank account.

Ive tried multiple times to get an address to make my final {$240.00} payment and they refuse to give me one. My checking account was closed due to my account information being compromised. When I tried to settle the debt with Blue Trust loans, they refused to give me an address to make the final payment. They have now sent the information to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and when I voluntarily called them, they were rude and hostile. And I quote " I dont know who you think your talking to but you better think again '' This comment comes after I asked him to explain why there is a discrepency in what I owe and what blue trust is claiming I owe. I then asked if this was reported to the credit bureaus as I have just started builing my credit back up. He asked me how I would like to pay the outstanding balance. I cant get a straight answer from anyone at either companies, Ive submitted my request for additional information they require within 30 days of the letter they sent in an attempt to collect the debt.

The reason I am making a complaint about Blue Trust Loans is because I NOW know they are a " XXXX XXXX XXXX '' company, so they can escape state usury laws. I borrowed {$1500.00} from them on XX/XX/2018, and TRIED to make a {$300.00} payment a few days later to lower my interest, but they refused to take my payment. I have to wait till XX/XX/2018, and arranged to pay {$1200.00}. THEN on XX/XX/2018, I will STILL owe {$800.00} PLUS {$270.00} interest. So for a {$1500.00} loan, within a TWO MONTH period I will be paying back a total of {$2500.00} -- over a THOUSAND DOLLARS in INTEREST! I let Blue Trust loans know exactly what I thought of them, and I have no doubt that THEY are the ones who sold my phone number -- I now receive twice hourly calls from area code XXXX. I keep blocking each phone number as it calls me, but I get another nuisance call from a different phone number out of area code XXXX. I am going to have to change my home phone number thanks to these crooks!

In XX/XX/XXXX I took out a loan with trust for {$2000.00} with the agreed amount to be paid back would be {$2600.00} if paid back on XX/XX/XXXX ( please keep in mind I have borrowed from blue trust loans before many times and have never missed a payment and paid the loans off quickly. ) On XX/XX/XXXX I paid {$730.00} on the loan and then asked if I pay the loan off on XX/XX/XXXX how much will I have to pay I was told {$1900.00}. On XX/XX/XXXX I called and was told I would have to pay {$2600.00} to pay the the loan off in full, I proceeded to ask why is there a {$700.00} fee after I just made a payment they said the loan increased by the day I proceeded to say that this not right and asked for a supervisor the guy then preceeded to tell me I just didn't understand was put on hold so he could get one, I hung up the phone after waiting for a while with no answer.

I was in a panic over not being able to pay my bills, because my son, who was living with me lost his job a few months earlier and I alone was not able to pay my bills. I was short each month by the {$1000.00} my son had been paying me. I had a low credit score and already had 2 personal loans and some credit card debt. I was desperate and took out a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX loan for {$1000.00} in XX/XX/2018. They deducted the 1st payment on XXXX for XXXX, ( {$380.00} of that was INTEREST ) after that I would have {$480.00} taken out for the next seven months. I was able to negotiate with them to deffer my XXXX payment to the end of the loan, which helped some. When I finally came to my senses, I realized that over the term of the loan which was 8 months I would be paying them {$3700.00} for a loan for {$1000.00}. Can they legally charge that much interest?

Due to financial hardship, I was unable to make my semimonthly loan payment. I requested ACH ( automatic withdraw ) to be removed from my Blue Trust Loan account on XX/XX/18 via email and again via telephone on either XX/XX/18 or XX/XX/18. I received verbal confirmation that this was done. Despite this, on my next payment due date, the full amount was automatically withdrawn from my account. When I called to complain, I spoke with " XXXX '' and was again told that ACH was going to be removed from my account, but they would not refund the amount taken without my approval. I was essentially told that I owed that amount and they could collect it via ACH even without my approval. I am concerned they will continue to automatically take money out of my account without approval. I called the bank and they were likewise unable to stop payment.

I have made XXXX payments of {$100.00} towards the loan, totaling {$760.00}. The last payment made on XX/XX/18. On XX/XX/18, I called for the pay-off amount and the supervisor I spoke with stated I owe {$360.00} ish dollars. On XX/XX/18, I logged into the website, my account balance is {$360.00} and is considered " past due. '' Based on the verbal conversation on XX/XX/18, the supervisor revoked ach authorization and placed the account in collections status. I have never received documents in the mail and/or email from this company, just the {$400.00} debit to my account. They operate using unfair and deceptive or abusive acts and practices. Ridiculous interest. Please conduct a review.

i took out a {$1200.00} pay day type loan from Bluetrust loans om XX/XX/2019. Now after 8 bi-monthly payments of {$220.00} totalling {$1800.00}, my pay off is still very high at {$1100.00}. If I continue to pay the bi-monthly payments, I have another 8 payments totalling another {$1800.00}. I did not pay it off immediately because i fell behind my bills and couldm't afford the entire pay off amount so I was forced to pay these predatory loan payments. I fortunately can now pay off the full amount of {$1100.00} now and be done with this XXXX predatory loan company, but not before winding up having pain in total {$2900.00} for the original {$1200.00} loan. If I could not afford to get out from this debt at the end I would have paid {$3600.00} for a original {$1200.00} loan.

I have already paid {$650.00} on a {$500.00} loan. I feel the interest being charged is predatory. I was not told the interest rate during my application process with the representative via telephone. I was also told I would not be approved for the loan if I did not agree to making automatic account withdrawals. I believe I was taken advantage of. I paid {$650.00} for a {$500.00} loan. I believe they made enough money off of me and that for me to pay more is relative to stealing, while taking advantage of being a tribal company, effectively dodging laws made to protect the public. Again I paid {$650.00} on a {$500.00} loan. I would love to request the company to settle paid in full and close my account based on my payment history.

This message was heard first played and heard by a co-worker, who then played it for my supervisor. I've stated to XXXX XXXX XXXX plenty of times to call me after XXXXXXXX XXXX.

I applied for this loan not knowing the interest rate of the loan, was never disclosed to me over the phone. My loan amount was for {$350.00}, so far I paid this company {$900.00} only to still have a balance. The interest rate is at 754.62 % which is over the legal limit allowed from Arizona. I was wondering why I still had a balance, so I had to sign up on the lenders website to look at my balance and was shocked to see the high interest rate. AZDFI no longer licenses payday lenders as of XX/XX/2010 and interest rates over 36 % is illegal as of XX/XX/2010. I have contacted the Arizona attorney general and learned that payday loans were prohibited in Arizona. A consumer complaint has been made.

On XX/XX/2019 I applied for a small loan and was approved for {$920.00}. I was told there was an option for 18 payments and that my starting payments would be for {$260.00} twice a month on my paydays. I thought this seemed high but figured I misunderstood and agreed. I was never told that the yearly interest on my loan will be 633.72 % until I got my signed agreement in an email. I'm stuck in a desparate situation to pay my rent, but I am hoping to find another solution so I can cancel this loan before the deadline on XX/XX/XXXX, but I don't think will happen and I will be forced to pay a total of {$4700.00} for a {$920.00} loan. This seems illegal so I am also looking into this further.

On XX/XX/2020 I took out a pay day loan with blue trust loans, however I did not know the annual interest rate was 637.77 %!!!!! Basically they are taking out {$180.00} weekly which know I have I have paid about {$1600.00} and by the time it is done I will have paid {$6600.00}!!! How is this even legal??? Ive made {$1600.00} in payment and the balance has not budged! I feel I was taken advantage of by Blue Trust loans ( aka hummingbird ) ... I was financially vulnerable at that time in my life and I was desperate for money and was not not notified on the phone about these outrageous interest or finance charges. Needles to say Im very upset and now Im an even worse situation then before!

I got the loan with the intention to pay it off right away but my position in my job changed abruptly and my pay decreased leaving me in a financial bind. I originally borrowed XXXX and have been paying XXXX biweekly since XX/XX/XXXX with an initial payment of XXXX and can no longer afford it. I called them to ask for assistance or if the pymt could be lowered and they refused. To date I have paid a total of XXXX. I do not want this to negatively impact me anymore than it already has. I know that I borrowed the money with the intention to pay it off quickly but I just want to be able to move on because they have already received their money back and more than the amount I borrowed.

I borrowed money over the phone. I borrowed {$1400.00} on XX/XX/2019, after being assured that if I paid it back on XX/XX/XXXX that the total payoff would be {$1500.00}. I was told that I could pay it off early on any day by calling one day in advance. I called on XX/XX/XXXX and was told that the loan would come out of my bank acct on XX/XX/XXXX, three days later NOT THE ONE DAY I WAS PROMISED. I was also told that the payoff was now {$1600.00}, NOT THE {$1500.00} I WAS PROMISED. I was totally lied to in the origination of this loan. I was told the origination phone call was being recorded ... ..yet the Company has refused to review the recording and adjust to what was promised.

Ive contacted Blue Trust Loans/Hummingbird ( another business name ) and revoked all ACH transactions and wage assignments as well as any electronic checks to debit my account. This loan had outrageous hidden fees and even though I had originally requested to pay the loan in full they still set up the loan in biweekly payments on my pay date. The interest rates far exceed the allowable amounts in Indiana and they are allowing users to borrow more then what the state allows which is {$550.00}. They have not responded to my revocation email and should not be lending in Indiana as they are violating the lending laws and do not have a license to operate in this state.

As of now Ive already payed {$1300.00} back which is well above my loan already and at a substantial interest percentage and Im roughly half way done paying it. This is a ridiculous amount to charge someone and I feel as something needs to be done about it and that I bring to attention what this company does.

I called today as I thought I was near completion with the loan and found out I have at least 14 more bi-weekly installments which comes out of my checking account in payday. I would have never signed on for thus had I known. My payback amount is in excess of {$4000.00} which is over 4 times the amount of the original loan of XXXX.

I called to ask the loan company if I could arrange an extended payment plan, or make a larger payment to reduce my biweekly payments, because they are pretty large. They told me that neither option is avaliable. If I did decide to reduce my loan with a principle payment, I would still have to pay the amount in the agreement for the remainder of the payoff.

This company has harassed me from day one. I have asked them repeatedly not to contact me at me place of employment l, and they continue to do so on almost a daily basis. They are putting my job at risk. I explained that the number was listed on my loan app only for verification purposes. They are a nuisance. I need for this issue to be corrected.

On XX/XX/2019 Blue Trust Loan Company called my job and asked to speak with my boss. The collector publicized my debt not just on this day, but on repeated voicemails on my boss phone. I would like for the harassment to stop. I prefer they no longer call my place of employment and that they do not discuss my debt with my employer.

Blue Trust loans is a complete scam. When I was approved, they quoted my interest rate at 15 % only to find out that it was 600 % after they sent me the loan documents a week later. I called today XX/XX/2020 to payoff the loan and it is more than the actual loan and they charge an early payoff fee.
