The True Cost of Payday Loans

Posted by – January 9, 2012


It’s often asked why payday loans are so expensive; with huge annual interest rates sometimes quoted, implying that rich companies are profiting at their customers’ expense.

Small Loans

“The Credit Crunch” – What was once a term used only by economists has now become so common-place that it has been added to the Oxford English Dictionary.
