22752. (a) If any provision of this division is violated in the making or collection of a loan, for any reason other than a willful act of the licensee, the licensee shall forfeit all interest and charges on the loan and may collect or receive only the principal amount of the loan.

(b) Subdivision (a) shall not apply to a violation if (1) the licensee shows by a preponderance of evidence that the violation was not intentional and resulted from a bona fide error notwithstanding the maintenance of procedures reasonably adapted to avoid any such error, and (2) within 30 days of discovering the error the licensee notifies the borrower of the error and rectifies the error by making the appropriate changes in the documents or account and by taking other action necessary to correct the error.
