SECTION 40-14-366 - Extended payment plan; terms and conditions.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this section, a consumer who is unable to repay a post-dated check or similar arrangement when due may elect once every twelve (12) months to repay the post-dated check or similar arrangement by means of an extended payment plan. The twelve (12) month period shall be measured from the date the consumer pays in full one extended payment plan with the post-dated check casher until the date that the consumer enters into another extended payment plan with the post-dated check casher.

(b) To request an extended payment plan, the consumer, before 5:00 p.m. Mountain Time on the last business day before the due date of the outstanding post-dated check or similar arrangement, shall request the plan and sign an amendment to the original agreement which memorializes the plan's terms.

(c) The extended payment plan's terms shall allow the consumer to repay the outstanding post-dated check or similar arrangement including any fee due in at least four (4) substantially equal installments and over a time period of at least sixty (60) days. Each plan installment shall be due on or after a date on which the consumer receives regular income, or if the consumer has no regular income due dates shall be a minimum of two (2) weeks between installments. The consumer may prepay an extended payment plan in full at any time without penalty. As long as the consumer complies with the terms of the extended payment plan, the plan shall be at no additional cost to the consumer and the post-dated check casher shall not charge the consumer any interest or additional fees during the term of the extended payment plan. The post-dated check casher may, with each payment under the plan by a consumer, provide for the return of the consumer's prior held check and require a new check for the remaining balance under the plan.

(d) If the consumer fails to pay any extended payment plan installment when due, the consumer shall be in default of the payment plan and the post-dated check casher immediately may accelerate payment on the remaining balance and take action to collect all amounts due. Upon default, notwithstanding W.S. 40-14-363(a), the post-dated check casher may charge the consumer interest on the outstanding balance at an annual rate equal to six percent (6%) plus the prime rate as listed in the Wall Street Journal on January 1 of the year in which the consumer defaults.
