Most credit agreements call for a debtor to make monthly payments to repay the total amount borrowed. So long as the debtor makes the payments, the creditor generally cannot demand any more. Except in the case of specific types of “demand” credit agreements (for example, demand promissory notes or demand lines of credit), a creditor cannot suddenly simply decide to demand the full balance due.
