Small Payday Loan Companies

Credit company detractors say they are targeting endangered individuals and lending cash without proper controls that borrowers can afford. However, they are not always able to do so. Campaign participants also say that the cost of a loan is not easily understood, especially when it is "translated" into new credit. It is too early to say whether the dispute over payday mortgages will be suppressed by new rules aimed at limiting the rapacious activity of credit companies.

The number of appeals against payday loan companies has more than doubled in the last two years, the ombudsman recently reported. Over a third of employees stated that work-related work-related stresses were due to their monetary worries. It goes beyond the reach of most employer to address the employee finance issues, but there are certainly measures they can take to help isolate, track and mitigate work-related stresses.
