Mycashnow /Tx statues


I took out a loan with mycashnow for 610 dollars and I have not been able to pay them more than finance so far and I just signed up with T & C so hopefully the fees will go down but now they tell me that I owe them 983.00 for a 610 loan that I have already paid 200 in finance to them for, NEVER NEVER AGAIN DO PDLS

But I dont understand the usuary laws here to know if they are charging me to much as well or how to figure that


Here, this is actually a little better:

The interest permitted on cash advances under $2500 is $18 for each $100 loaned per year (Texas Finance Code 342.200). As an alternate interest charge provision, the Texas Office of Consumer Credit Commissioner has instituted a $10 upfront fee, plus $4 per $100 loaned per month on short-term loans (equal to 48% apr) (Texas Finance Code 342.252 (3)). Additionally, all such loans that rollover more than two times must be converted to a declining balance loan with a set repayment schedule.

What was the original loan amount, and what is their "finance charge" per pay period for their so called "renewal"? For example, I had a 300 pdayday loan, and they charged me $75 per pay check for 4 paychecks just to roll the loan over to the next pay period and not contribute anything towards paying off the actual loan. Then, on the 5th paycheck, a minuscule amount of that $75 went towards the principle of the loan. So, they were in excess of TX's allowed interest limits, and they violated the statute about how many times a loan can be "rolled over" before money is actually paid toward the principle. Let me know if that helps or if I can try to explain it better. :)
