Many payday loan borrowers aren’t able to repay the loan when it’s due and roll it over into a new loan, incurring new fees. The CFPB found that nearly half of borrowers had more than 10 transactions in the 12-month period covered in a survey. The Center for Responsible Lending found that payday loan borrowers are more likely to become delinquent on other bills; delay medical care; and in the worst scenarios, file for bankruptcy.
