Did my finance company break the law?

I applied for a loan for $700. The finance company agreed to give me the loan and told me my payment would be $107 a month. When I went to sign the papers they had printed a check for me for $930 instead of $700 and they told me the monthly payment would be $183. I was stuck between a rock and hard place and signed the papers but I felt like I was taken advantage of because they increased the amount of the loan and the payment from what was originally agreed upon. Is there anything I can do about this?

    What law?

    You were presented with papers for a loan of 930 with payments of 183

    You had 2 choices- sign the papers, or dont sign them

    You chose to sign them

    Probably not, since you signed the papers. The time to say something about this was before you signed.

    This is a rather small loan. What are the terms? I hope you aren't paying this back for a full year. If so, you are getting KILLED on interest. Where did you go for this loan?

    You could have refused it....You should take the extra $230 and put it towards the principal of the loan. This should bring down your monthly payment. Good Luck

    You have no recourse. You signed the paper.
