I hope you are aware how much trouble pay day loans can cause.
Our state passed a law that pay day loans places can not charge more than 430% interest.
The places have been closing down quickly.
I guess that’s not enough profit for them.
Be careful – ask anyone that has done one – they will only get you in deeper trouble.

Payday loans do have a place, they are just legalized loan sharks.
1. Understand what you are doing. 2. for every $100 borrowed it will cost you $20-30 3. It is due in less than 14 days usually.

If you have a friend or family or even if your work would allow you to borrow some if you need it in an emergency – do it that way and pay them back at a reasonable rate – say 10-15% or 1-3 months.

Credit cards are cheaper if you can. Even the bank if you can. There really is nothing good about them honestly.. And i have used to my regret.

They are legal (usually) but carry terrifyingly high charges. You’d have to be very, very desperate to consider one. The first port of call if you’re temporarily having difficulties would be family, friends, your bank, anyone but these sharks . . .

The pop ups and emails are largely scam-y if not outright scams. (You almost never know who you are really dealing with).

The ones on the street corner with “big names” are legit, but extraordinarily expensive in a very short period of time. The “trick” is that if you roll over your loan from the first repayment date to the next (and the next and the next) the interest rate is generally high enough that you will be quickly locked into a loan that you cannot payoff without a significant increase in weekly income.
