.All About PayDay Companies
The truth about interest! It's important to pay particular attention to the
rate of interest on cash advances. The rate on cash advances may be 500%
per year or more. Borrowing $200 for 2 weeks at 500% will cost you $38.36.
Compare this to borrowing $200 for 2 weeks at 36% ($2.76) or 12% ($.92). If this lend is refinanced four times, the cost
difference increases dramatically! In fact, it will cost you nearly $200
to borrow $200 for ten weeks: YOU SHOULD AVOID TAKING OUT MORE THAN ONE Payday
loans! If you already have Payday loans outstanding, you
should avoid taking out another such lend. When you have more than one no
faxing payday loans outstanding, you may find it very difficult to pay the
required finance charge payments, much less paying all or a portion of the
amount financed when the lend comes due. If you need a larger, longer-term
loan, you should seek other, more traditional, lending sources. How do they work Payday loans work like this: You fill out an application and provide the lender
with items such as paycheck stubs and a photo ID. You sign a loan agreement, write a postdated check
to the lender, and receive your cash. Your check is held until your lend payment is due -
usually two weeks. The lender then deposits your check - unless you have
replaced the check or have already repaid the lend. The loan agreement that you are required to sign is
a legal document that obligates you to repay the loan. It also sets forth
a lot of important information. Be sure to take note of the these things: The Amount Financed: The amount of credit provided
to you or on your behalf. (This is typically the amount of cash you will
receive.) The Finance Charge: The dollar amount the credit
will cost you, or the amount of interest you pay for receiving the credit. Annual Percentage Rate (APR): The cost of your
credit as a yearly rate. Because these lends are small, short-term
transactions, the APR is typically quite high. In Wisconsin, there are no
laws that limit the interest rate that a lender can charge. Total of Payments: The amount you will have paid
after you have made all payments as scheduled. (This is the amount that
you will write your postdated check out for.) What are your responsibilities The loan agreement you sign legally obligates you to
repay the loan. Make sure to read the contract before signing it and
retain your copy for your records. If you have not renewed the lend or paid it in full,
make sure you have sufficient funds in your checking account on the due
date of the loan so your check clears when the lender deposits it. If you cannot or do not repay the loan, the lender
can seek a money judgment against you for the face amount of the check and
court costs; and, if they were disclosed in the contract, any late
charges, interest after maturity, and NSF fees. Once a money judgment is
obtained, a lender may attempt to garnish your wages. Many lenders also list unpaid accounts with the
credit bureau. This may affect your ability to get credit in the future. OTHER CONSIDERATIONS If you pay the loan in full prior to its due date
you are entitled to a partial refund of the loan charge. If you are married and your better half does not
sign the lend agreement, the lender is required to give your spouse a
written notice that you obtained the lend. IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS The Department of Financial Institutions (DFI) is a
