My husband and I filled out a Bar None questionaire and was contacted by Midway Nissan to come in and talk to a loan specailist about buying a vehicle. We asked them on the phone if we were getting a loan and they said yes. We went down two days later, met with a salesperson from 7PM - 1:30AM - talking/filling out forms etc. We kept asking about the loan and was told we were pre-approved and the loan should go through. We were also told, if we refer a friend we were to be compensated $150.00 if the person bought a new vehicle. We told our friend, he went down not even one (1) week later and bought a truck and had it financed through the dealership. We received a phone call from the dealership that we were to finalize the loan papers. I asked if the loan went through and was told yes. I met my husband there and was told to wait while our paperwork was pulled - we sat there from 5:30pm - 8:30pm and after that time we were asked to return the keys of the vehicle. I asked for my deposit money and was told to come back because they did not have the refund of my deposit ready. I asked, if they knew I was coming in, why did they not have it ready? I went back to next day to get the refund and was given a check, but they could not find my other down payment check. I waited yet again at the dealer from 11:30 - 1pm that day. I went to the bank to cash it so I can deposit cash in my account and was told this was a transfer account only and the check could not be cashed.
This has been since Memorial Day - my friend has already made his first truck payment and I still have not received the $150.00 referral check - My husband has called numerous times and was told "Oh, that did not get to you?" and "We'll Check into it"
Not for nothing - I kept asking about the loan being approved, I was told no problem, which it was and I can use the $150.00. If they said it, they should have kept up their end of the bargain.
