Creditors must treat you fairly and honestly. The Montana Consumer Protection Act (MCPA) ensures consumers are protected from dishonest and unfair practices.
Examples of unfair or deceptive actions include:
- Telling you not to make payments and then charging late fees for missed payments.
- Not following the terms of your loan agreement.
If you think a creditor violated the MCPA, do not wait to take your next steps. There are strict deadlines to file a claim under the MCPA. Learn more about your rights and options by visiting MontanaDebtOptions.org.
