In fact, it is in the borrower’s best interest to repay a payday loan as soon as possible. If the borrower does pay back a payday loan, it will make matters worse. The borrower will have to take another loan to cover the earlier payday loan, and before he realizes it, he will end up owing more money and more interest. Payday loans have a way to building up even before you realize it. This results in people avoiding to pay a payday loan and it is the worst decision they can take.
No matter how much money you owe, you should try and talk to your lender to work out a deal with him. Usually it is possible to work out a payment plan with the lender so that you can repay the loan over a period of time.
There are many consequences to not paying payday loans. The lender will end up charging you extra non-sufficient funds fees when he tries to cash the post-dated check you gave him. Even you bank will charge you overdraft fees for not having enough money in your account. Once the lender figures out that you are not going to pay back the loan, he will transfer your debt to a collection agency. This starts the never ending phone calls and reminder letters to settle your debt. However, each debt collection agency uses different methods and some are known to be more aggressive than others. The collection agency will start contacting you at work and home, and at times they might also resort to threatening you. This will have a negative effect on your credit score if the lender reports your debt to any credit agency.
Payday lenders can also sue borrowers who do not repay their loans. Usually legal action is taken for writing a bad check or some other type of fraud. Although a fraud charge may not hold up in court, it will cost your time and money besides all the stress.
