Prince Edward Island, while being the smallest province in Canada, is still home to plenty of borrowers who suffer from debt issues. Unfortunately, many of them could end up relying on payday loans just to get by. Hopefully, that’s not the case for you, but if it is or if you’re trying to avoid payday loans in Prince Edward Island, Loans Canada has some information you might consider useful.

The “Advantages” of Payday Loans

Payday loans are easy to be approved for, which makes them appealing. You don’t need a good credit score or even any credit history. If you can prove that you have at least 3-months of steady income, an active chequing account, and a P.E.I. address, you can apply and be approved for a small amount of cash (usually less than $1,500) within a couple of hours.

This can seem like a good option if you:

• Have a nerve-racking expense to cover, such as a rent payment to avoid eviction
• Don’t qualify for other credit products with your bank or another conventional lender
• Feel confident enough that you can pay your full loan within 2 weeks
• Don’t mind the extremely high interest rates that come with most payday loans

This can be a bad option if you:

• Receive an income that is not large or steady enough to cover the full cost of the loan, plus interest, by the end of your 14-day term (standard time given by payday loan lenders)
• Have an expense that is not absolutely necessary or needs to be paid right away
• Would rather the option of lengthier payment times or a longer payment term
• Are looking for a lower interest rate, so you can save money

Missing a Payment or Getting a Payday Loan: Which is Cheaper?

Depending on your financial situation and what kinds of expenses you’re trying to cover, believe it or not, it might actually be cheaper to miss a payment than to take out a payday loan. That’s because, as was mentioned just above, the interest rate that accompanies typical payday loans in Prince Edward Island can be extremely high.

In P.E.I., payday loan lenders are permitted to charge:

• Up to $25 per $100 borrowed
• This is one of the highest interest rates in Canada at over 650% APR (annual percentage rate)
• A standard late/default penalty fee of $40

Let’s say, for example, you miss a credit card payment. As long as this isn’t a frequent occurrence, a normal late penalty fee is $15-35 (depending on how late you are and what card you have). So, if you decide to charge your expense to your card, then make a late payment, you would save a bit more money than you would with a payday loan.

Here’s how you can rebuild your credit after a late payment.

In addition, you’ll be given 30 days to make a payment (rather than 14) and the option of sticking to a minimum monthly payment (rather than having to pay in one lump sum). While it’s true that your credit cards can also lead to severe debt when not managed responsibly, they can still be a better payment method than payday loans.

Other Payday Loan Rules In Prince Edward Island

If you’re still determined to use a payday loan, it’s best that you study the rules that the government of Prince Edward Island has set in place (apart from the maximum cost of borrowing) to regulate the way payday loan lenders do business.

These other rules include (but aren’t limited to):

• All lenders must possess a valid license to operate
• All lending locations must contain advertising of specific proportions, displaying the costs and specific regulations of their loan products (ex: posters must be at least 61 cm in width by 76 cm in length)
• All lenders must provide borrowers with the exact details of their loan cost, payment term, total fees, interest rate, etc. within their loan contacts
• No lender may provide or allow “rollover” agreements (grant the borrower a second loan if their first loan has not been paid in full)

Alternative Forms of Financing

If payday loans are starting to sound unappealing to you, there are a number of other financing solutions that might work better for your particular debt situation, many of which we offer right here at Loans Canada.

To avoid payday loans, you can also look into:

• Personal loans
• Secured credit cards
• Car/vehicle title loans (only if you own the vehicle completely)
• HELOCS, home equity loans, second mortgages, refinancing (only if you have equity in your home) Click here to learn how to access your home equity in 2018

In extreme cases of debt, you can also try:

• Credit counselling
• Debt consolidation loans
• Debt management programs
• Consumer proposals
• Bankruptcy

Make sure to ask your lender if and how you can qualify for these products. While many of these solutions will depend on your current debt level, credit health and income, they will likely be less hazardous to your finances.

Predatory Lending and Scamming: The Warning Signs

Payday loans in Prince Edward Island aren’t yet outlawed, but they’re still a popular way to get quick cash. So, many predatory lenders and scam artists use this idea to their advantage. While there are some payday loan lenders that do operate legally, there are some who are out to steal your money or your personal/banking information. When it comes to payday loans, know your rights!

Here are some warning signs to look out for:

• A lender trying to charge more than $25 per $100 you borrow
• A lender who offers a “rollover” service, which you should always avoid
• A lender who won’t give you all the information you request or tries to avoid your questions through obvious sales ploys
• A lender tries to deduct payments directly from your bank account
