What did the Truth in Lending statement say?

This is something you should have figured out BEFORE you signed the contract.

This is the whole purpose for the "truth in lending" statement that is required by federal law.

You MUST sign that you understand the costs before the loan is completed.


WHAT did that form say?

Rule of 78s

#4Consumer Suggestion

Was this load made under the "Rule of 78s when essentially all of the interest is paid up front before you start to pay principal?  Also your interest rate may be very high. I suggest going to your credit union  or bank next time.
