Your rights with personal & payday lenders

You can revoke permission for a lender to take automatic payments from your account by telling the lender and your bank. Many states cap interest or ban payday loans altogether, and the Military Lending Act caps most loans to active-duty servicemembers and their families at 36% APR.

Scam warning: A real lender never asks for a fee up front, a gift card or a "deposit" before sending a loan. Check the lender is licensed in your state.
