What Virginia Law Guarantees You
Paying a fee to push the due date out is not allowed under state rule. A statutory cancellation right also applies: 3rd business day by 5:00 PM, at no cost. Licensing and complaints run through the Virginia State Corporation Commission - Bureau of Financial Institutions: verify any lender before signing, and keep the complaint route from the Virginia state page handy.
