I have been getting multiple calls from this Lendgreen company telling me I still owe money from a loan back in 2017. That if I don't pay a settlement amount of first call was $1300 now after today 4/12/2022 its 20 payments totallying $2000, otherwise it will be forced to send $6000 to a 3rd party collections. Each time they call or i try talking to someone its different amounts. I've attempted to call and email them regarding this matter but no responses to my email. I can't get my information online, they won't provide it, I tried telling them the original principle amount had been paid plus $50 over back in 2017 and gave them exact dates from bank statements with the withdrawals. That they weren't licensed in WA state and asked that the loan be considered paid in full since principal amount. They won't and just continue to call threatening if I don't pay the settlement that day they will send it to collections.Business response
