It Depends:

1. Yes it is Illegal if - you owe someone money and used the check to pay them for that. If you issue a stop payment the check will not be paid and the person to whom you issued this check can legally sue you for that

2. No it is not Illegal if - you have lost the check and want to ensure that whoever finds it cannot cash it without your approval

Can you put a stop payment on a check to a payday loan store?

It's not illegal to do a stop payment, or the banks wouldn't let you do it, but you would still owe the payday loan store. It may still be illegal in your state or jurisdiction however, because you wrote a check and received money for it. Check your state laws with an attorney to find out for sure. If you stopped the check, I would recommend contacting the loan store to make arrangements. If it was an internet payday lender, and you didn't physically write them a check, it's not the same thing. You could tell the bank to stop the debit, but it won't keep the payday lender from continuing to try and get the money out of your account. They will just put it through for a slightly different amount, as stop-payments are amount specific.


Can you get arrested for making a stop payment on a check in the state of Texas?

It Depends: Yes - If you gave the check to someone to who you owned some money and need to pay that person for the service he provided you. Since a stop payment results in no-payment the person who got the check can get you arrested No - If the check was lost or stolen. You can always issue a stop payment to ensure that even if the check is misused by anyone to whom you did not intend to give it, the bank won't pay the check.

Is it illegal for loan companys to contact a person on Sunday for payment?

There are no federal laws protecting you from collections on a Sunday. Often, collectors just don't work on Sunday's, so those days seem to be relatively quiet. Your state may have a law that makes it illegal, however you would have to check with your state consumer protection agency or attorney general to find out for sure. Chances are, they are entitled to call you. Federal law states that they may not call you before 8am or after 9pm any day.

Ive done this before. It is not illegal. What normally happens is the payee may go to small claims court, (depending on the amount) and try to sue you for it. That puts the ball in their court, not yours. If you have any kind of case the judge will normally split the bill at minimum.
