Company: Uetsa Tsakits, Inc. d/b/a MaxLend
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
I applied over the phone for a loan amount of {$1600.00} and was told how much would be taken out of my account bi-weekly. I also asked about the charges and was told something around 25 % interest. I agreed and they ask you to state your name saying you agree and I did. As I made the first initial payment and XXXX thereafter, I noticed the balance was becoming more than the loan itself. When you call this company, ( after accepting the funds ) they give you absolutely no options of lowering your payments in which I have already paid them approximately more than {$1400.00}, they also say you can call if you're having difficulties with payments but yet they hang up on you. It was only when I actually cancelled the debit from my bank and emailed them telling them I was doing so due to their lack of communication that they started calling and emailing me saying I owe them approximately {$1900.00} plus more dollars. So I then pulled up my information only to find out the interest rate is 634 % ... ... ..absolutely not!!!! NO ONE would ever sign up for something like this, and I knew I would be paying them for interest but this is predatory lending. The complaint was sent to them on their website, this was around XX/XX/22. They DO NOT send you a copy of this contract with that interest rate on it, they tell you something totally different over the phone and get you to verbally agree, and then include this bogus contract with your signature.
