Why Payday Loans Have a Bad Reputation
Payday loans are the method of choice for millions of consumers whenever a financial emergency arises, as they offer quick cash in times of need, and are easy to apply and qualify for. So why are so many people bashing the payday loan industry? It’s simple, really. They see the unlawful actions of a few and assume that everybody is doing the same things – not disclosing terms, taking advantage of borrowers with usurious (excessive) interest rates, or in some unfortunate cases, requiring money up front; these loans are referred to as “advance fee loans,” which are Internet scams that have snookered hundreds of victims.As with any industry, there will always be some “companies” that seek to mislead customers to make money, all the while giving the industry a black eye. In addition to this, many borrowers take out payday loans without fully comprehending the terms of the loan, which obviously does not make for a positive experience. The fact remains, however, that obtaining a payday loan does not have to be a bad experience. If you research companies thoroughly, deal only with reputable companies with a proven track record, and carefully read the terms of a loan, you will find that obtaining a payday loan is a perfectly safe, manageable means to rectify your financial situation.Let’s examine the reasons why people choose to shy away from payday loans further. First, as previously mentioned, many borrowers are either not informed of the terms of the loan before signing the document, or simply gloss over the terms without fully understanding them. All of a sudden, the borrower finds him/herself in a precarious situation. It is mandated by law that lenders MUST disclose all terms in the loan agreement, including the interest rate and schedule for repayment. By simply reading over your loan agreement before signing it, you can decide whether or not you want to proceed.Secondly, let’s be realistic – the interest rates associated with payday loans are rather sky-high. What one must realize is that you are paying for convenience – you are getting fast money at a much higher interest rate than a regular loan. Whereas approval for a regular loan could take weeks, approval for a payday loan can be almost instantly. Credit does not factor into the decision either, so applicants with bad credit or no credit can get approved – when you consider all these factors, it is not hard to understand why lenders are able to get away with charging high interest rates. A rule of thumb to remember, as you have probably seen elsewhere, is you will be charged $15 for every $100 you borrow. The bottom line is, that if you borrow infrequently and responsibly, payday loans are the ideal short-term solution for a financial emergency.Probably the most unfortunate reason why payday loans get such a bad rap is because many borrowers misuse and/or overuse payday loans. They simply rely on them too much, and use them for unnecessary reasons, such as to go on vacations or purchase expensive things. That is not what payday loans are supposed to be for! Payday loans have an explicit purpose – to provide short-term financial relief for emergency situations – a hospital bill, car problems, etc. Overusing payday loans is another problem, as many borrowers have gotten into situations where they have to roll over loans because they cannot repay them. This results in financial ruin, as finance charges pile up and all of a sudden your financial “emergency” becomes a financial “nightmare”. Again, if you borrow infrequently and responsibly, this can be avoided, and payday loans can be seen for what they are.In conclusion, there is a common thread here – in order to get the full benefit of a payday loan and ensure that your experience is as smooth as possible, the onus is fully on you to make sure you do not either get taken advantage of or plunge yourself further into debt. By dealing with reputable companies, such as industry leaders OneHourCash or PayAdvanceLending, you can avoid being taken advantage of and feel secure knowing you are dealing in good faith. Lastly, by borrowing ONLY for financial emergencies and not for unnecessary things you can live without, you will be able to avoid any further debt and the despair that comes along with it. It is up to you – do your research, and make the right decisions.
