I took loans through CTC twice a month for nearly a year now. I closed my bank account to stop it and the other 10 or so PDL's that were leaving me with nothing but anxiety every payday. My question is I was borrowing 800 every 2 weeks and paying back 1012, meaning every month I was paying 424 in interest. By Illinois law I should only be paying 15 per 100 borrowed, so I was paying all those months twice what the law would allow in interest. Do you think I should ask for a refund of all that excess payment? CTC does reloans only, no extensions. So each loan is a new fresh loan. I didn't know about asking for refunds on all of them.


Hello there Mittens! I am going to post your state laws, and according to what I've read there are no rollovers permitted in the state of Illinois. Is this store front a member of the CFSA, because if they are you can evoke the EPP (extended payment plan), which means you can make 4 equal payments on that loan spread out on your paydays. All you have to do is ask for it. According to the law I am posting, it's $15.50 per $100.00, which would make the $800.00 you borrowed up to the amount of $990.00, they must be adding some kind of fees on it to reloan? I'm not sure.

Yes I closed the account with an outstanding $800 loan, meaning of course I would have paid them $1012 on payday (again!) had I not closed the account. I just wondered what the chances were of reimbursement, which I figured were slim and none... Thanks for the input!
