      Dear BBB Representative/Customer,

      Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. Our General Manager of the ***************** reached out to the customer via email to address their concerns and provide assistance. However, we have not received any response from the customer to date. Below is the email that was sent:

      Good Morning *** ******,

      I am the General Manager of the Check City online department, and Im reaching out to better understand your account and assist with resolving your BBB complaint. My goal is to address your concerns and provide any clarification or explanation that may help.

      Here is what I found in our logs:

      A loan with a balance of $300 was due on 11/5/2024 and was returned to us for insufficient funds on 11/6/2024 which created a debt with a balance of $315.00.
      You logged into your online account and paid the balance of $315.00 with your debit card ending in ****3976 at 2:49 PM MT.
      You then requested a new loan on 11/6/2024 for $255 at 3:01 PM MT and it funded to the same card.

      If you notice any discrepancies between our logs and your bank account transactions, please let me know. I'm happy to arrange a three-way call with your bank, or if it's more convenient, you can share your bank transactions with us so we can review them together.

      My goal is to resolve this matter promptly and ensure we retain your trust and business. We take great care in our accounting and account management, so I want to understand where the confusion might be arising and address it as quickly as possible.

      I look forward to hearing from you soon.

      Kind Regards,


      ***** ******
      General Manager

      They put a block on mine and my partners account so now everytime we want to take out a loan we have to reach out to them for support On the weekends or after hours we are NOT able to freely take out loans due to this restriction placed I get the feeling check city doesn't like when people rescind a loan. So on 4/1 when I yet again reached out for troubleshooting Kendall said accept auto pay and I'll turn it off once the loan goes through Well she didn't turn it off and now I'm trying to process a debit card payment to avoid further interest fees but the representative Elena refused to help process the debit payment or remove the auto pay The worst part is that they are telling me I can't take out a loan without their help because of a glitch. Where is the proof and why hasn't it been fixed in months??? On top of that, to remove auto pay Check city asks that an email be sent (during that time the loan accrues interest) Well they removed auto pay of my loan from 3/12 by accident without any documentation instead of the one from 4/1 and now Kendall refuses to help fix the error her colleague made or fix the payment preference I was told would be updated upon me taking out the loan.

      Ladies and Gentlemen:

      Please find attached to the foregoing response to Ms. *****'s Complaint a detailed record of Check City's internal collection department's communications with the customer, as well as a detailed explanation of all pertinent transactions.

      The $177 disputed amount is explained by the addition of Ms. *****'s loan balance and associated fees, etc. as she agreed upon in the controlling loan agreement that she signed. 

      Our Collections Department would like to encourage Ms. ***** to reach out to us, as we are willing to settle this account favorably. We are mindful of how important our customers are to us, and we remain willing to work towards an amicable solution.

      Thank you,

      Check City has no issue with Ms. *****'s response. The response it submitted was simply an attempt to explain the existing balance at the time of the customer's original complaint. We appreciate Ms. *****'s business and hope to serve her needs in the future, should she choose to borrow from us again.
