Company: ENOVA INTERNATIONAL, INC.
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding a personal loan I received from NetCredit, serviced by XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. The loan terms violate Arizona 's Consumer Lender Law, specifically the interest rate caps outlined in the Arizona Revised Statutes. 

Loan Details Loan Amount : {$4500.00} APR Disclosed : 97.48 % Total Payment Scheduled : {$13000.00} over 30 months Legal Discrepancy Under Arizona law, interest rates for loans of this size must adhere to a tiered cap : 36 % on the first {$3000.00} of the principal 24 % on the remaining {$1500.00} By these standards, the total legal payment should not exceed {$8200.00}, including interest of {$3600.00}. The loan terms provided by NetCredit far exceed these limits, resulting in excessive and likely usurious charges. 

Action Requested I request your office to : Investigate NetCredit 's compliance with Arizona lending laws. 
Assist in adjusting the loan to meet legal interest rate caps. 
Impose penalties for any violations, including forfeiture of excess interest. 
Attached are copies of my loan agreement, payment schedule, and a detailed calculation of the legal interest rates under Arizona law. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. Please feel free to contact me if additional information or documentation is required.
