Assuming you pay according to the terms of the modification, you’ll pay more in finance charges, although you may not have to if you pay early or pay the account in full before the original term.
A modification can also affect your GAP, life or disability insurance policies. We’ll apply a prorated refund for canceled life or disability insurance policies in the following states: AL, CO, DC, ID, IA, KS, MD, MA, OK, SC and WY. This refund can’t be applied toward past-due payments or other amounts owed.
Modifying your account doesn’t change how we share info with credit reporting agencies, and won't change any payment performance history that already exists on your credit report.
There’s no penalty if you want to pay off your account after you've modified it.
