What You Need to Know about Arizona’s New Payday Reform

Businesses that offer payday loans are regulated by the state, and a person who wants to get a cash advance from a legitimate company knows that the company has to follow the guidelines. However, the state regulation is going to expire in 2010.

It was recently up for a vote and there was a chance to repeal the termination date for the program. That proposition failed, though, and the original termination date will stand. That means that, in 2010, the state will no longer be able to regulate Arizona payday loans. People who go to get a cash advance after that date will want to be aware that the businesses who offer these payday loans will not have to follow Arizona state loan regulations any longer. They may change their terms, their interest rates, and other things, so read what you’re agreeing to very carefully.

Some people who are against these kinds of companies, though, think that letting the companies regulate themselves won’t be any worse than letting the state regulate them because they are already allowed to charge interest rates that are far above the standard rate for other loan companies.
