Acutally I work for a finance company and I take serious offense to the fact that you call everyone who works for a finance company heartless and uses scare tactics to bring in the profits. To make such a generalization is very misguided and uncalled for. Now I am not sure what the situation was exactly and if there was any inappropriate actions by the employees of that finance company then we should hope that those things were dealt with appropriately. As for the interest rate, yes it is higher because the customer is paying out over 4-8 months rather then 5-30+ years. Also, banks will not loan under 1000.00 unless you have nearly perfect credit and have been with them for years. So for those people who need money on a short term basis, we help them with that and can also help build credit. I have done whatever I could to help out my customers and help them when they have a difficult time, as well as try to resolve issues that may arise. I do not use cheap scare tactics to get money because they don't work. I have learned that patience and understanding actually works better then intimidation.
