      Valley Strong is inconspicuously in loan agreements. After getting a loan with Figure, I started getting $1 bills periodically. After closing the loan with Figure I was able to close the Valley Strong account - when finally able to contact. The sent a letter and were "gladly" able to take payment by make ... with Cashiers check or Money Order. The $5 bill that I had accumulated will cost me much more to generate a payment check, but I was kindly informed that they wouldn't charge for receiving the check ... ?! This is a pathetic schtick for a few bucks that I am confident would cost me much more to refuse to pay. PLEASE, someone have the cause to drag these dogs through the woodshed with a class action lawsuit - or BBB, please force this level of irritants out of our lives. Valley Strong provided No Service and clearly others are strapped to the periodic payments while engaged with these other lending companies. The should be illegal and likely is. Thank you for taking the time in considering my request/complaint.
