Making BB the “bad guy” isn’t fair reporting if the device is out of warranty and it’s a third party purchase But BB has to hold their third party sellers accountable by banning them if they don’t meet their marketplace standards It’s baloney that people are ignorant that it’s a third party seller Comment from : @miptjc57 |

Marketplace should do a show on payday loans In Ontario, the annual effective rate is 3,724 on payday loans, but they are not required to disclose the effective annual interest rate All they disclose is $15/$100 for two weeks Comment from : @pgbrandon |
 |
Although these insanely predatory rates are absolutely brutal, the bigger issue is the fact that 8/10 people are highly uneducated in finances, and they willingly sign their life away These loans are optional, no one is ever forced to The lack of education is the real problem Comment from : @roganor |

The existence of such businesses seems to feed the spending habits of some - people trying to spend more than what they actually have on hand If people change their spending behaviour, such companies would have no business at all Comment from : @benjaminxie2037 |

The liberal government is going to fight against these guys Three years have passed, another 30 will pass and everything remains the same I am not going to vote for the liberal party again They are liars who do nothing The conservatives are more honest You know they are not going to help you Maybe the only help they offer is that you pay less taxes on your salary Comment from : @freddyanonimus2964 |

Worked at a hard money loan company for a couple months Realized the real reason my boss was so nice was because of having “generous clients” after realizing how corrupt the business really was I left I couldn’t handle the fact that my boss was preying on low income families or people who were in a tight spot Financial industry is 999 corrupt Comment from : @calisurfin |

 |
Pay day loans of below $1500 are even worse they charge 15 every 2 weeks or almost 400 APR In my opinion the government should cap pay day loans to $250/$100 or 60APR and these larger loans above $1500 should be capped at 35 which the federal government is doing Comment from : @vicgamesvt9682 |

As a non-Canadian, Marketplace has taught me that most Canadian politicians arent worth the air they breathe, bc they always side with the powerful Comment from : @cz2301 |
 |
I've had to use test places a couple times what totally defeats their practice is pulling out the calculator and doing the calculations right the and there Budget accordingly, based on the interest rate If 80 of the people that came Into the places and did a little work they'd be better off But alot of these people don't have really any financial literacy, hence this problem These places are designed to help once in a rainy day no more Comment from : @michaelgill387 |

It’s important to note that if you default on a consumer debt loan, life will be fine Yes, your credit score will take a hit, but there is not much that they can do except make empty threats Also, in Canada, as of fairly recently, if they haven’t been able to get a hold of you for five years, the debt goes away If you are a working individual, they may be able to garnish some of your wages However, if you are someone on welfare or disability, they are not allowed to touch your disability or welfare checks The only downside to consumer debt, especially if you were someone on a fixed income, is you will get mean calls from people who think they are in a position of authority, threatening letters that aren’t worth the paper they printed on, and your credit score will take a hit The thing is about your credit score, it really only matters if you’re making above a certain amount a year If you were someone on a low income, and you’re making under $16,000 a year, it doesn’t matter whether or not you have the best credit score Even if you have a 900, you still won’t be able to get anything with your credit because of your limited income The only debt that you should be somewhat concerned with is if you have a government debt like a student loan Otherwise, consumer debt isn’t a BL and all that most people Are conditioned to believe it is This comes from life experience, and the experience of working alongside a financial advisor Comment from : @hieuhieuphamvan9433 |

Great Job by the expert witness Alex Haditaghi and Senator Ringuette for bringing this to the light and talking about these jerks without fear! We need more leaders like this two individuals! Also great job by CBC marketplace producers for again doing an incredible job! Comment from : @hieuhieuphamvan9433 |

I worked in a law office in 2002 and we used to have people call about these loans They were hoping a lawyer could help them out of the predatory practice, but they'd signed a contract and there wasn't really anything the attorneys could do It was really sad Check cashing and payday loan places are predatory, too, and take advantage of people who aren't in the regular banking system for whatever reason This kind of practice should be illegal, but here in the US there are several senators who have invested in these companies, so it's not in their best interest to pass legislation against it Comment from : @hieuhieuphamvan9433 |
