I badly need help po/ some advises, Please. I don't know what to do.
Mid Feb po, I got a loan from a local lending company to use for my grandmother's hospitalization. I borrowed 12k, got barely around 10k (less processing fee and adv interests)
Need to pay for it for 15k. Since emergency and walang wala po talaga pagkukuhanan, I agreed for the terms. The loan is good for one month.- 2gives. (15 days interval). Couple of agent have been calling me 2-3 days bago ang due date. I told them that i will be paying for it on the due date. They still keep on texting for the reminders. I received like 5-10 calls on the day of the payment which i find very annoying na. I was able to pay for the 1st hulog, exact date. May contact akong agent, kausap ko bago ako magpunta sa payment center at around 3:30. He said that i have to pay for the amount bago mag 4:00pm. I felt pressured but then again naisip ko, it's my obligation anyway kaya i tolerated. Yung kausap ko sabi tatawagan ako ulet in 10mins. I told them nakapila nko, just waiting for my turn para sa hulog. Naprocess ung payment at around 3:55pm and sent him a text message na na-email ko na ung receipt thru their customer service email. Sent at exactly 4:00 pm. I tried calling him couple of times to confirm pero hindi na sumasagot so I thought okay na. After some time, may tumatawag ulet skn at nangungulit saying that I haven't paid for what we have agreed upon. I sent them the receipt as a proof but still receiving couple of calls saying na lumagpas na sa oras/cutoff (4:00pm) ng pagbabayad and need to pay for the exact/whole loan amount including the interests. I called their office telling them what is happening. At first I was talking to a customer service agent telling them what is happening. But instead of doing something, sinisisi pako saying na dapat nagbayad daw ako on time. I've been telling her, that day is my due date and I paid for the amount na napag agreehan bago mag 4:00pm. Then he transferred me to the collection department. I talked to somebody but same thing. Kinuwento ko ulet nangyare. I told him i already sent the receipt dun sa email nila but still said na lagpas na daw cutoff nila and need to pay for the whole loan amount. If not idedemanda daw ako. I tried to contact their office for the next couple of days since I kept on receiving letter of demands stating that I still have to pay for the whole amount. But nobody is listening. Pinagpapasahan nila ako kung san sang department kuno. I felt bad, tired, scammed and harrased- that's when I stopped communicating.
Now I still receive an email pero iba na ung details na nakalagay. Last week ng Aug, umabot na daw ng 24k+ ung loan together with the interest and penalties. I sent them an email but I haven't got any reply. Yesterday, I got another email na it's already 40k+. That they'll be filing a case against me if I won't be able to settle it within a week. They're also threatening na pupuntahan daw nila work ko. I just don't know what to do. I'm honestly a bit pissed and afraid. Hindi na po ako nakakatulog ng maayos kakaisip sa sobrang stress. Please po tulong.
