RICHMOND - New restrictions that would change the face of Virginia’s $1 billion-a-year payday lending industry cleared the General Assembly by overwhelming margins Thursday. An industry representative branded the bill as too restrictive, saying it penalizes responsible borrowers who need quick cash and see the short term, fee-based loans as a convenient option. Glenn Oder , R- Newport News , sponsored the House version and several lawmakers praised his involvement. The new fee would be 20 percent of the loan amount, plus a $5 fee for the database, plus 36 percent annualized interest, which works out to a few dollars over the shortened term of the loan. Ward Scull, a Newport News moving and storage executive, started Virginians Against Payday Loans after one of his employees found herself hopelessly in debt. New payday lending rules • Borrowers are limited to one loan at a time, and get twice as much time to pay. Read More

But these property tax loans carry high fees and interest rates as high as 18 percent, and families who use them risk losing their home if they default on even a small loan. Despite the improvements, the loans remain risky because any tax lien for back taxes is transferred to the lender, meaning a homeowner who defaults on a tax loan could suddenly face foreclosure. In his October report, Baylor compared the cost of a property tax loan to using a credit card to pay a $5,000 tax bill. The industry sought higher fees, but Mary Doggett said the approved fees will cover costs associated with the loans, such as property appraisals, tax records retrieval and title searches. Read More
HUNDREDS of out-of-work federal Coalition staffers are still waiting for thousands of dollars in entitlements from the Rudd Government, six weeks after Labor seized power by campaigning for the rights of workers. Coalition ministerial staffers and electorate officers were this week told by the Department of Finance they faced further delays to their payouts, including holiday pay and long service leave, because of the number of people involved. A number of Coalition staffers received their payouts this week, but 353 were still to be processed by the Ministerial and Parliamentary Services section of the Department of Finance and Deregulation. The Rudd Government is filling about 365 ministerial staff positions, fulfilling the new Prime Minister’s election pledge to cut the number of staffers by 30 per cent, compared with the last days of the Howard government. Bringing the number of ministerial staff back down to the levels that existed at the start of the Howard government in 1996 is expected to save the taxpayer about $29 million. Read More

Payday advertisements appeal to customers with the promise of no credit checks, said Jeff Telling, Central Illinois regional manager for Family Credit Counseling Service in Normal. Payday loans are marketed as short-term cash advances on the borrowerâs next paycheck, but many Americans end up caught in a debt trap, as 90 percent of payday lending revenues are based on repeat borrowers, according to a survey from the North Carolina-based Center for Responsible Lending. David Hill, credit counseling coordinator at Chestnut Credit Counseling Services in Bloomington, recognizes the alternative to not taking out a payday loan sometimes could be financially worse than the high interest-rate loans. If they donât pay back the loan or roll it over, the lender will cash the check, and the consumer could end up with another problem â” a bounced check, Telling said. If consumers are thinking about getting a payday loan â” or already have one â” for any reason, Hill hopes the experience is a wake-up call for them to take a better look at their finances. Read More

The writers – who often live on royalties cheques while developing new concepts, which may or may not be sold – are demanding to be paid for shows broadcast on the internet, while the studios argue that the online format is not yet developed enough for such a deal. A writer on a late-night talk show would typically be paid $150 (£70) when a show is repeated on TV, and nothing if it was shown online, even though online broadcasts now include paid-for advertisements. It will take longer for film production to be affected, because scripts were stockpiled by studios in advance of the strike and unionised writers play a less crucial role in the production of films than they do in TV, where writers are also often the executive producers and keep tweaking scripts on the set.

Another new law, Assembly Bill 950, extends to two years the period of state residency for service members on active duty who are not California residents so they can pay in-state, instead of out-of-state tuition and fees, enabling more to qualify. California’s payday loan law parallels the federal law and, in effect, enables the state to enforce the cap and take action against companies that break the law, officials said. Enforcement of the predatory lenders law falls to the state’s Department of Corporations. The predatory lending law came two years after military officials first pressed state leaders to curb lenders who they say take advantage of military service members and threaten their financial health and readiness. Top military installation commanders praised the legislation, which was approved by the state legislature last month and signed into law by Gov. Read More

In another case, Lori Christensen, of Logan, had paid off the $1,200 she owed in interest on a $300 loan from a different payday lender, but she still showed up just to make sure she wouldn't hear from small claims court again. Stories like Christensen's are anecdotal and don't accurately reflect the payday lending community, said Cort Walker, a spokesman for the Community Financial Services Association of America who also works for Check City, a Provo-based payday lender. He said the company supported a Utah law that limited the amount of times consumers could extend a loan, but it doesn't support legislation that could cap interest rates in Utah. People in Utah paid about $69 million in payday loan fees last year, according to the CRL, and some Utah lawmakers are taking notice. Read More
