Bureau advisory on SCRA rights

The CFPB has posted a Consumer Advisory, "Know Your Rights Under the Servicemember Civil Relief Act (SCRA)," with an explanation of the protections afforded servicemembers under the Act. The Advisory notes that the SCRA was amended this year to allow qualified individuals the ability to terminate residential and vehicle lease agreements electronically by sending a notice of termination along with a copy of their orders – or a letter from their commanding officer via email or through a communications portal designated by the lender or agent.

The Advisory advises servicemembers to check with a military legal assistance attorney or private legal counsel before signing any waiver of SCRA rights, and suggests options available to servicemembers who believe their SCRA rights have been violated. There are also links to several resources that can help servicemembers better understand the full range of legal protections available under the SCRA.
