Hi Ms. Adams,
Thank you for reaching out to Finder.
The first step is to get as much documentation on the loan that this loan company is saying you applied for. Once you have these, reach out to your local police department for them to be aware of this and protect your interest as much as possible. Hope this helps!
Cheers,
Reggie
if i need a loan of 2800$ and my back olny does auto loans for 5000$ and up can i get the loan use the money and return the rest?
Hi Zach,
Thanks for getting in touch with finder. I hope all is well with you. :)
Generally, the interest rate is charged to the total amount you borrowed and not the money you only used. For this reason, you can use the excess of your borrowed money to pay off your balance. However, you will still need to pay the interest that you incurred from the total amount of money you borrowed.
Just in case, you might also want to check our car loans for used cars and car loans for new cars.
I hope this helps. Should you have further questions, please don’t hesitate to reach us out again.
Have a wonderful day!
Cheers,
Joshua
I got a bigpicture loan. I’m reading all the bad stuff about the company now. What happens if I don’t pay them back? I didn’t know it was illegal
Hi Shelly,
Thanks for leaving a question on Finder.
As the lender tries to collect your debt, they continue to try withdrawing from your bank account, using the information you provided. If the money isn’t there, they continue trying, sometime breaking up the loan into smaller parts. This won’t only get you into trouble with the lender, but your bank may also charge you overdraft fees every time your balance is insufficient when the lender attempts to withdraw money.
And this is when the phone calls start. Lenders and collection representatives will use all of the information you provided — phone numbers at your job, email addresses, and even family members or friends — to contact you for payments.
For more information about this matter, check our guide called “What could happen if you don’t pay back your payday loan”.
Cheers,
Joel
