Using Short-Term Loans Responsibly
Short-term loaning companies have recently been under great scrutiny. While there have been some companies that have taken unfair advantage of their customers by providing loans that they knew that the applicant would be unable to pay back while charging outrageous interest rates and penalties, this fact does not apply to every short-term lending agency […]
