Payday loan Charged fees or interest I didn't expect Charged fees or interest I didn't expect Illinois

After several unexpected medical bills, and with no living family to turn to, I was forced to search for a quick way to pay bills in advance of my regular paycheck. I found Green Trust Cash after a frenzied google search and the agent I spoke to was friendly and understanding, if hurried and pressuring me to see the benefits of having cash now. Agreeing, I accepted the terms of the loan, not understanding the incredible interest rates or the way that I would not be able to increase my payment schedule/pay the principal down quickly - - although the agent I spoke to assured me that repayment was easy. I received the $300.00, less $25.00 in wire transfer fees, and the schedule for repayment began. As per the loan agreement, I paid $720.00 over the course of 3.5 months, more than 200 % of the loan. However, with the clear of day, I have come to understand that they are attempting to charge me 751.07 % ( or a total of $1400.00 ) for a loan of $300.00. I was unable to keep up with their punishing 'repayment ' schedule, that actually kept the principle very high, so as to keep me paying for as long as possible ( more than 1 year ). I closed the bank account they were aware of in order to get some breathing room ( after being charged late fees/overdraft fees ). Then, before I was able to contact the lender about finding a schedule that would fit within my state 's legal repayment/interest laws, Green Trust Cash began to badger and call incessantly. Some times as often as 4 times a day, on my personal and work phone numbers. Having a diagnosed -, I have been thus far unable to answer their abusive emails, voice mail messages or calls. I am in over my head and in need of help. Please do not trust this company.
