I viewed my online bank account and noticed an attempted withdrawal of $390.00 by Westbury Ventures. I called the number listed and spoke with a very verbally abusive man who accused me of owning this money. I do not have any knowledge of this company nor did I ever have any loan with them. How they ever got my SS# and bank account info is beyond me but warning to everyone if you do any purchases online or pay bills online that you should make certain the website is secure. I went to my bank and filed a Purgery notice to stop this company from any withdrawals from my account. I filed a complaint with the Pa. State Attorney General office against them. These people are bottom feeders and scum.

They just threaten and jeopardize. I lodged a complaint with the AG. The clerk said there are many complaints. I want to see action taken against them.

I spoke with a man names Troy Paisley from this company, he told me that if I do not make a payment, they are going to find bank accounts in my name and take the money that is rightfully theirs, so I gave him my checking account and routing number and gave permission to debit my account on the 26th for $90 to close out my loan with the company. I decided to google westbury ventures and am now finding out that they are more than likely not a real company, what do I do now that they have my checking info? Please help.

Hi Monique its a big mistake to give out checking account like that. Just make sure with our bank that only the approved amount is debited and not a penny more than that. They are masters in withdrawing extra and making your account go negative.

First and foremost Jessenia..give them a call back. Try to get hold of the address and the name of the person though I am sure they will not give the correct name. Take all the information that you need like the amount of debt, the original creditor. Simply ask for debt validation. For that send in a debt validation letter which they have to reply to prove they own the debt and you are liable to make any kind of payment to them.
You can use this for sending the validation letter

Keep your bank informed that no transaction from your account should go unauthorized.

Hi Allen,

have you any pending payment to any payday loan company?

Well Allen payday loan is legal in your state. However the company might not have papers to run it. West bury is legal and abusive as well. Check with your credit report whether you have any negative remarks added to it.

So everyone knows that Christmas is four days away! So surprise, this company has just debited my account for $325.00 plus my bank charges me a $25.00 nsf fee. Evil or Very Mad

I have been calling this number since 8 am this morning, and no answer. But what pisses me off is that the rep at the bank was making it seem like I authorized this transaction....She did not see not one ach depoist on this account from any company since this account has been opened. She states that it is some type of collection company attempting to collect a debit, I said attempting to collect, don't u mean has collected. I am very frustrated, and apologized to her if I seem to be rude, but I explained to her that she was not giving me the information that I needed, because once again I did not authorize this transaction and how did this company even get this account number. The rep explained to me that I would have to file a dispute and that could take up to 30 days and then I would also need to fill out a stop ach withdrawal form for my account. It seems as though she would never answer the question, if this company could w/draw from this account w/out my permission or even them notifying me 1st about doing this. As frustrated as I am, it then dawned on me that I did go a payday loan over a year ago w/a company but at that time I had a different bank and that loan was pif. So I am still kinda at AW on how this company got my new account number and debited the account and my credit union honored this charge. Any comments/suggestions?!?

Your bank will work with you on this type of matter, be patient with them, their process takes some time. Hope this all works out for you.

Hi China Doll,

Your credit union will help you to reverse the transaction. Talk to someone in the higher level. The reps hardly help. Go to the bank as you need to fill some papers before the transaction is reversed.

Wow! I'm seeing tons about Westbury Ventures on this site. I've never heard of them. I've never done a pay day loan - nor will I ever, so maybe that's why. Pay day loans are scams, people. I can't believe how many people use them - it makes me sad.

Hi Chane,

You are welcome to the forum. Its great to see more contributors everyday. This is unbelievable but many people are victims of the payday loan scams. Payday loans are legal in certain states and that pains us more. Many fall into the trap due to lack of unawareness.

This forum contributes to that sphere of psychology as well so you are welcome to put in your two cents. Thanks again for coming to the forum. We really appreciate it.
