South Carolina Payday Loans

There are several laws in place to protect consumers and operators of cash advance businesses in the state of South Carolina. The most important is that all payday lenders must be licensed with the state. They must also clearly display all of the fees associated with cash advances in the office. The bank account of the borrower must also be verified before any contracts are signed. In the actual agreement, lenders are required to list the date of the transaction, full name of the lender, amount of the principal and the total charges displayed as an annual percentage rate and a dollar amount. If a check is returned for non-sufficient funds, a closed account or a stop payment, lenders in South Carolina, such as those in Columbia, are able to take criminal and civil action against the borrower.
