Have you borrowed from these cash advance places and got trapped into borrowing to replace your check with what you had to pay out, it can be neverending. I didn't see how people got caught up in these but very easy to do. I finally cancelled our checking .A warning to others, stay away from them .Anyone else been caught up in these ?

Yes it got caught up in borrowing, from a cash advance place and when I would take my money out, of my saving account, so the cash advance people wouldn't get it, I had the manager of that company, come on my job, hand me a paper right infront of customers, and he made me look really bad,I paid that cash advance place off, and I never dealt, with another one again, those people are evil.

I see that this discussion is old but I had to comment when I saw it. My hubby and I got stuck in the cash advance trap and we were in it for three years. We were always missing the extra from the fee that they charged so we had to borrow again to make sure we could pay all our bills. I have also had a bad experience with a couple places that I tried that put the check through before they were supposed to. This resulted in me either having a bounced check account or borrowing from one cash advance place to pay another. I am now a student in college and thanks to my student loan checks I was able to pay off the cash advance so we are out of that mess.
