    Resolved
    I took out an emergency loan with crane, the first one was $300 and after all the interest they offered me $500. Unfortunately I fell on hard times and the $500 sounded helpful so I took it. After no longer being able to pay $117 every two weeks due to a death in the family I revoked my ach. Within two weeks of doing so crane finance sent me an email that they would be contacting my employer for wage garnishment unless I signed otherwise so I signed not permitting them to do so. They sent me to collections with customer care global. I began to start a payment plan with customer care but they are asking for over $500 owed. Paid off $459 so how do I owe over $500 still? This is a predatory loan they charge almost 700% interest so my $500 loan was turning out to be $1757. This is a scam for people who fall on hard times. I noticed that the payment I did make to customer care global went directly to ********************** because it is in my payment history. I am asking for this loan to be considered paid in full or I am willing to pay the remaining balance on the $500 I borrowed which should be no more than a $60 payment and no longer be contacted by them. They do not have my permission to garnish wages on an illegal loan.

    Fraud alert , they are criminals. I received an email from them saying my payment was due. I never took out a loan . They sent me an affidavit by email. I told them I wanted a paper copy. They said they could not send one by mail???? Clearly the bank that it was supposed to be sent to was clearly not a back the routing number was not even right . They are criminals wiring money somewhere.
