Debt trap for consumers taking out payday loans
Payday loans have been at the centre of controversy for some time, with the crippling interest rates, lack of proper checks, and ease of credit being amongst the things that campaigners and authorities have expressed concern about. One consumer group has now warned that more and more people are getting trapped in a downward spiral of debt as a result of extortionate interest rates and penalty charged imposed by payday lenders.
It is claimed that more than 60% of consumers who take out these payday loans are using the money to pay bills, buy food, pay for petrol and pay for other household essentials. This was based on data collected in a survey carried out by consumer group Which? The watchdog said that there were particular concerns over how more and more people were getting caught up in a debt trap due to the penalty charges that they were facing as a result of being unable to repay their loans on time.
According to the survey results, around 25% of those who had taken out these payday loans said that they had been hit with crippling fees and hidden charges such as fees for reminder letters. Around 18% said that they had been unable to pay back their loans on time. The data also showed that one third of consumers had experienced greater financial problems and issues as a result of taking out one of these payday loans and 45% had been hit with hidden charges after taking out a payday loan.
The Which? figures showed that 45% of payday loan borrowers had rolled over their loans on at least one occasion. The debt trap is thought to be made worse by the fact that around 57% of borrowers being encouraged to take out further loans. One third of consumers said that they had been texts, emails or unsolicited calls before signing an agreement.
There was also concern over the number of consumers who were being allowed to take out credit that they could not realistically afford, with almost a quarter of payday lenders that were looked at failing to carry out adequate credit checks on those applying for finance.
