Responsible Lending
It is our goal to protect consumers from lenders who participate in poor lending practices. As such, we require our lenders to adhere to federal laws and state regulations as it applies to the short term and online personal lending industries. We provide information throughout this website so that you can better understand the short term loans and online personal loans and make better decisions regarding your finances.

Even Imperfect Credit Is Welcomed to Try
Fair Debt Collection Practices Act
We strictly insist that our lenders follow the guidelines put in place by the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. We are not a lender, so we will never make any attempt to collect a debt from you. However, our lenders have the right to use all lawful means available to them to collect your debt if your loan is unpaid. They must follow the guidelines of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act when doing so. These are some of major actions deemed as violations of the Act:
• Using any harmful, oppressive, foul or harassing language or tactics in order to collect debt;
• Attempting to contact debtors before 9 a.m. or after 8 p.m. in their local time zones;
• Using deception, falsifying information or misrepresenting a company in order to collect a debt;
• Threaten criminal charges or any legal action when such legal action is not warranted.
Any lender within our network found to be in violation of these guidelines will be immediately removed from our network and reported to law enforcement.
Fair Lending Act
The purpose of the Fair Lending Act is to ensure that all consumers have equal access to credit despite their age, race, creed, gender, religion or other non-financial factor. The Act ensures that consumers are not discriminated against and that they have access to the loan and other forms of consumer credit as long as these consumers can meet the legal and financial guidelines associated with obtaining such credit. If you feel that you are a victim of discrimination, please contact the Equal Opportunity and Fair Lending Office of your local Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
Truth in Lending Act
The Truth in Lending Act was established to ensure that consumers have all of the information about the credit offer available to them in writing before they take any responsibility and e-sign any contract or decide to extend any credit. Lenders are required to disclose information about the rates, fees, interest and terms associated with loans before they provide any credit to any consumer. Each state has its individual regulations regarding short term and online personal lending, and lenders are required to ensure that all offers are in accordance with these regulations.

Representative APR Range
plnearme.com is not a lender and does not provide short term or online personal loans but refers consumers to the lenders who may provide such loans. LoanSolo.com is unable to supply you with an exact APR (Annual Percentage Rate) that you will be charged if you are approved for a loan. APRs depend on multiple factors, including the lender’s requirements and offers, your credit worthiness, your state of residence, and the type and term of the loan you request. You will be given the details on the APR, loan fees, and other terms by your lender when you are redirected to your loan agreement during the loan request process.
The APR on a short term loan can range from 200% to 2,290% depending on how the APR is calculated (nominal vs. effective), the duration of the loan, loan fees incurred, late payment fees, non-payment fees, loan renewal actions, and other factors. Keep in mind that the APR range is not your finance charge and your finance charge will be disclosed later on. See a Representative Example
The APR on online personal loans can reach up to 1,386% depending on the lender’s terms, borrower’s residence state, the duration of the loan, loan fees incurred, late payment fees, non-payment fees, loan extension plan, and other factors. Some states cap APR and the amounts of charges for online personal loan.
Implications of Late Payment
You are encouraged to contact your lender as soon as possible if you are unable to repay your loan on the scheduled repayment date or make regular installment payment on time. Your lender may set late payment fees in accordance with state regulations, and your lender has several courses of action to deal with late payment. For more information about your lender’s specific procedures as they apply to late payments, please review your loan agreement or contact your lender directly. Origination, documentation and other additional fees may apply to your online personal loan deal. Late payment, non-payment fees and other penalties may apply to both short term and online personal loan deals in case of missed payments. Please review your loan agreement carefully for information about the financial implications before you provide your electronic signature.
Implications of Non-Payment
The costs associated with loans of up to $500 can range from 15% to 40% of the entire loan amount, and the charges associated with loans of more than $500 can be even more. Your lender may also charge you late fees as well as fees for non-sufficient funds. As an example, your lender may charge you a $20 nonsufficient funds fee as well as 15% of the loan balance as a late fee. Please review your loan agreement carefully for information about the financial implications of non-payment before you provide your electronic signature.
Non-payment may involve debt collection practices as it is set by applicable law. The majority of the lenders in our network do not intend to sell your debt to outside collection agencies. Instead, they will attempt to collect the debt in-house via telephone, email, postal mail or even text message. Similarly, they will not threaten criminal charges or sue borrowers; they will generally offer debt settlements over time instead. Every lender in our network is required to adhere to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, which protects consumers from being abused or harassed by debt collectors.
Lenders are within their rights to report your failure to repay a loan to one or all of the major credit reporting agencies — Experian, Equifax and Transunion. This negative record can be reflected on your credit history indefinitely until the loan is repaid in full. After the lenders receive payment in full, they can report it to the credit reporting agencies. We remind that late payment or non-payment of your loan can have negative impact on your credit history.
Some of the lenders in our network may automatically renew your short term loan if it becomes past due. This term is clearly identified in your loan agreement. You should check your loan agreement for your lender’s policy on automatic loan renewal prior to e-signing it. If your loan is renewed, there will be additional charges as determined by your lender, and the minimum term can be set up. Your lender may offer you other options in addition to renewal, including the ability to repay your loan in full at a later date or repay your loan over time in a series of installments.
