Michigan Pay Day Loan Laws


I have some outstanding PDL's and I live in Michigan. I have read the law but I don't understand how it relates to me. I contact one company and was told that I had an original loan with them for $300 and that I now owe $205.32. I informed them that they have been taking funds out of my account for 6 months and I was told that that was for a renewal fee of $90 for every 2 weeks. At this rate I will owe them forever.


VGreg -

you've come to the right place!

I also live in Michigan, and I know the payday law here pretty well, after dealing with it myself.

Here's a link to the state payday laws - click on Michigan and you'll find the info:

www.paydayloaninfo.org

Michigan allows payday loans, but there is a limit on interest that can be charged. Also, you need to find out if the company you are dealing with is licensed. If you need help doing this, send me a pm and I'll help you out when I get home from work tonight. Chances are good that if these are internet PDL's, they are not licensed. Many of them are not.

If you need help immediately, please post the names of the companies here, whether they are internet or storefront, how much the original loan was and how much you have paid so far. Many people here are pretty well versed on PDL's and how to handle them. They can help you find out if they are licensed if you can't wait until tonight.

Keep us posted on your progress!

The account is with Exprescash and they have withdrawn $184.68 thus far. Today I changed my checking account number so they can't withdraw from it anymore. I called them today to get an address for payoff and was told that I can only do a check by phone. I told her I didn't feel comfortable with that and I was told that that is my only option.
