What California Law Guarantees You
Paying a fee to push the due date out is not allowed under state rule. A statutory cancellation right also applies: End of next business day, at no cost. Licensing and complaints run through the California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation: verify any lender before signing, and keep the complaint route from the California state page handy.
