zacw20 is absolutely right. At most payday loan stores, if you pay back the loan on your next payday, like you’re SUPPOSED TO, you only pay $15 for every $100 borrowed. That’s 15% interest – NOT 400%! You NEVER pay the annual percentage rate, because it’s NOT an annual loan. PAY BACK THE LOAN WHEN YOU’RE SUPPOSED TO, and you will NEVER be ripped off by a reputable payday advance business! I am an occasional payday advance customer, and have NEVER been ripped off!
Thanks for posting your comments. I am glad to hear that you experience with a payday advance center has been a positive one. You make some good points about the situation concerning payday advance centers. Thank you. Harold
I am considering getting in the payday loan business. However with all theses complaints, and countless states wanting to take action against them, I am getting skeptical. But I don’t understand why the industry is cutting its own throat. If they continue the way they are going they will be stifled out of business by government regulation.
Come on guys, clean up your act before the government does. Maybe they feel that the end is near and they need to make their money now.
I think that being in the payday loan business could be a great idea if you charge reasonable interest rates and you give people a reasonable time to pay the loans back. Truth is most people can not afford to pay the loan back in one pay period and that is where people get in trouble. You could develop your business in such a way as to make money and help people at the same time. Best wishes to you with your business idea. Take care! Harold
Where’s Jack Kevorkian when you need him?
Somewhere out in the midwest I believe. He should be out of jail by now. Although, I am not sure how he can help people with the Payday Loan situation. Take care! Harold
Lets all get together and pray that everyone that owns a payday loan company dies and goes to hell.
You have a great gangster/Godfather immitation
My wife and I got suckered into these payday loan sharks when we were young. Nobody should ever use these sharks for help.
How are these calculated
There is no such thing as a debtors prison. I am currently trapped in the repetitive cycle to the tune of $900 a month. I just quit paying.
the service fee is generally $10-15 per $100 borrowed not including the 400% interest. A $650 loan can turn in to a $1650-$1950
ya its $28/item at my bank.
I work for a Payday loan store and I can tell you the #1 reason for the interest being so high. Most customers take out the loan, and never come back. We’ll then have to deposit the check, and 99% of the time get it back for NSF (Non Sufficient Funds), SP (Stop Payment), or account closed. A lot of the people also will take the money and then file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy. If everyone was honest and paid back, the rates would be way lower.
I do understand what you are writing about. Unfortunately there are people who do take out the loans and default on them. That certainly is not right. Thanks for sharing your thoughts about this matter.
what are you being difficult about. You do make the desision yourself to loan with 400% interest. If every american starts stopping doing things on credit then we would not have your problem now. Save for something you want to buy.(credit cards get x% on what you buy so if you use em youre not helping)
The only way to reach the much-hyped triple digit APR is to take out one advance and continue to renew the same advance every two weeks for an entire year. State laws and industry best practices do not allow this to happen.
Payday loans are a viable low-dollar, short-term loan that are cheaper than overdrawing your account, paying bills late, etc. Watch the attached video response.
After listening to your ranting and raving, Ive discovered that you’re a windbag who is grossly misinformed. If you spent a few minutes talking to one of the owners of these businesses, you’d see that your showing off your ignorance. Fortunately you being an idiot, probably wont HURT anybody, but there is a reason you’ve never been elected president. Do the world a favor, KNOW what your talking about before you spew your stupidity all over the internet for all the world to see!
I don’t know about everyone elses experiences but we got $300 from cashloancity com and had it paid back after one extension. My wife and I couldn’t have been more pleased with the service.
1-877-271-2850 is a great place to get a payday loan.
haha thats insane 400% interest who would be so stupid when interest is usualy 7%. the sad thing is the banks dont actualy hav any money to loan you.
the total sum sould look like this; borrow from petter to give to paul,
instead it looks like this; borrow to give to petter and paul.
noboady has the money thats lent to p&p the banks ar totaly criminal!
The real crooks are the banks with their fucked up overdraft fees of $35 for a one dollar purchase
If the government would stop outsourcing jobs and giving best opportunities to foreigners rather than Americans there would be far less need for payday loans. Is there something in the USA Constitution that says “We the People are obligated to support every foreign family with tax breaks, doughnuts shops, gasoline stations, lottery terminals ad infinitum”?
Please dont put your finger in my face. I wanted to reach into the screen and snap it off. My wife recently noticed an unauthorized debit from her bank account from Uclip coupons. Fortunately her bank gave her the money back. I’ve read that many payday loan companies share their customers imformation with scammers like Uclip.
It’s vulture capitalism. Using a credit card would be a lot better than using a payday advance. You could also get a loan from the bank with collateral at 5%-7% per year.
