Reading all the reviews makes me even more furious at myself for not doing my homework and letting myself be sucked in by these bottom feeders. Whenever I don't listen to my gut feelings, I get screwed. I'm embarrassed to say that I'm 65 and have lived long enough to know better but I was in a financial crisis and obviously lost control of my senses. My story is the same as most of you..I was approved for 5K almost on the spot and right then I should've known it was too good to be true because my credit is not good at all. I stupidly believed them probably because I wanted so badly for it to work out. I let my emotions take over. Now, I'm out $600 which overdrew my bank account with no hope of ever recovering it. I got a call from my bank's fraud dept and I knew immediately. I changed all my online banking info right away and they (Lightstream) had the audacity to call me and ask me why I did that. I was almost speechless. I said...Are you effing kidding me? Then I got some BS story that she was not in the payment dept and I said...Save it honey...it's all BS and then I wrote a scathing (and that's putting it mildly) email to Jessica Howard, the supposed Loan Director. I got a return email that said..."Thanks and regards" from Jessica. I was able to get her on the phone and I said...What is wrong with you? She said she was not aware of the problem and would straighten it out. I told her I wanted to hear from her before the close of business today...big surprise...no call. I didn't expect one. I honestly would take great pleasure in flying to CA and pay them a little visit in person with my friend who happens to be on a SWAT team...That's how furious I am. These people are why the world is such a hateful place these days...they don't deserve to breath the same oxygen we do...it's just a waste. I'm really rooting for Karma to work it's magic when they least expect it. Just wish I could be there to applaud. Honestly, I am a kind, peace loving old hippie from the Woodstock days, although I may not sound like it right now but I'm just so saddened by what the human race has become and done to our world. Sorry for the ramble but I had to share. Bless you all and be kind to one another...it's our only chance. As Jimi Hendrix said " When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then and only then will we know peace" Be safe friends.
