No, only a prosecutor of the court may bring a criminal case against anyone. Criminal charges are brought as a result of illegal behavior, not defaulting on a loan. If the default, however, is subsequently believed to be related to fraud, criminal charges may be brought by a prosecutor. A payday loan company will use EFT to debit your bank account for the amount that is owed on the loan.

An individual cannot press charges. Only the state makes that determination. If you would like the state to consider criminal charges against a person, contact the police and report the incident.
As a private individual you cannot 'file' criminal charges against anyone. You can attempt to bring the facts to the attention of the prosecutor's superiors - if you can present enough proof, perhaps they will institute a charge of perjury. HOWEVER you can file a civil suit against the prosecutor for false or malicious prosecution.
You cannot drop charges. The state presses and/or drops criminal charges.
