Is American Web Loan a scam?

They’re legit. American Web Loan has been in the collections business for 11 years. The business was started on February 10th, 2010 and the collection company’s BBB profile was opened on March 12th, 2019. However, even without accreditation American Web Loan has received an average “B” rating from the BBB. Due to the company’s years in service and its rating from the BBB, it is clear that this company is not scamming consumers. However, while it is important that you do not ignore the need to resolve your alleged debt with American Web Loan, as this could potentially harm your credit and ability to take out future loans, be wary of any suspicious activity where the company could potentially be violating the FDCPA. With that being said, remember that the debt which you may have been contacted about is real, and needs to be dealt with.

Lastly, American Web Loan writes on its website that, “American Web Loan is an internet lending solutions company owned and operated by the Otoe-Missouria Tribe of Indians (“Tribe”). The Tribe has lived in the Missouri River Valley since the 1600’s and was the first tribe to meet with Lewis and Clark in 1804.” The collections company also has a variety of affiliations, which include Online Lenders Alliance and the Native American Financial Services Association. According to ZoomInfo.com the company has an employee base of 73 and an annual revenue of $15 million. There is no information currently available on the leadership of the company.

Who does American Web Loan collect for?

American Web Loan is a “lending solutions” company, which means that the company personally loans funds to consumers. When payments are not kept up with, this is where the collections aspect of American Web Loan comes in. There is no specific type of loan that American Web Loan collects on. In fact, their testimonials list clients who utilize loans for car issues, medical bills, and home emergencies. Therefore, because American Web Loan collects on a variety of different loans it is very important that as a consumer you confirm with the collections company about what debt is specifically owed and to whom. Inquiring as soon as possible is the smartest move to make, and if you feel as though this company has breached their FDCPA rights be sure to contact an attorney to help you file a lawsuit.

Can American Web Loan Sue Me or Garnish My Wages?

Remember that it is illegal for American Web Loan to make empty threats to sue you or garnish your wages. A collections company will likely choose not to sue if they cannot verify your debt or you may not owe said debt. However, these companies can still summon debtors to court and garnish wages after a default judgement. If you find that American Web Loan may have violated the FDCPA, the wisest course of action would be to hire legal aid. Contact an attorney preemptively to ensure the safety of your assets and rights. Lemberg Law has helped thousands of consumers fight back against these cases of fraudulent collection practices.

Unlawful Debt Harassment? Learn the Law & Sue the Collector.

Can you help me file a No Fee Lawsuit against American Web Loan?

Absolutely. You can sue a debt collector. Here is a sample complaint:

A complainant claims that American Web Loan opened a loan under their name, “without consent or authorization”. The complainant explains that they never applied for a loan from this lender company. The complainant would like to know how this company gained access to their financial accounts and deposited $300 into a savings account that is currently not in use. It was after the complainant discovered this discrepancy that they proceeded to call the lender company, American Web Loan to demand that they take the funds back and close the account. The company refused to do so, demanding that the complainant pay $339 instead. The complainant explains that, “They fraudulently opened this loan and deposited that money”. There should be a consensual part of this transaction, as the complainant never chose to take out this loan.

    I received a American Web loan on April 22, 2023 in the amount of $500 I made 10 payments of $77.86 then in addition to that I paid $459.41 to pay off the loan in full but that wasn’t the end I received another email saying I was missing a payment and I had to pay an additional $82.66 to finally close the account. In total I spent $1,320.67 please be careful when taking a loan from them.

    I was also a part of the class a lawsuit in which they were ordered to cancel my debt. They are no longer on my credit report, but now some other company is calling and saying he is not a collection agency but rather this is headed to litigation if I don’t pay it now. How is this possible? I thought this debt was cancelled several years ago. I even received a notice ID about the settlement.

    I paid off an American Web loan through RCS collection agency on 3/1/21. I was never informed of a class action suit. When I paid it off, RCS told me the creditor was taking back their accounts and another collection agency was taking over. I have the letter showing it was paid. Almost immediately I began receiving harassing calls from another agency. Since then my wife and I continue to get phone calls from another agency who has also contacted my previous employer. I have provided them copies of the letter showing it was paid but they continue to call regularly.

    I was part of a class-action suit and they are still harassing me.

    My loan amount was for $2000. I now have read the fine print and see that my finance fees are for 532% ultimately paying them 9000.00 for a 2000.00 loan. Do I have any recourse, I have paid them so far 6025.76. Is there any way to get out of this loan?
