This payday lender, One Click Cash or its affiliates are not licensed to operate in California. They know that they are not licensed in California, yet they still do business here.
They could have told customers that they are not authorized to conduct business in California, but of course they won't tell us that because they are after the ridiculous fees they charge customers. They illegally try to charge double the amount of interest for a $200 loan.
I did not know that what the company charges is not legally allowed in CA, regardless of whether I agreed to their contract as I wasn't aware of Payday Loans LAW here in California at that time. I just wanted to make clear that it is just right to close the account because I have paid my due with repayments made on 2/21,3/21,4/20, and 5/21 in the amount of $60 each date for total of $240 (more than the $200 I originally borrowed).
Moreover, payday lenders are prohibited from doing "rollovers" to renew accounts here in California.
California licensed payday lender loans are subject to the following regulations:

I made a demand that no more ACH withdrawals be done from my checking account and a letter of PAID IN FULL sent to my home address and no damage shall be reported to teletrak, telecheck, or the credit bureau as I have taken care of my due already as protected by California Law. As they have no legal precedence in California, I demand a Cease and Desist on further actions on my account.
