My wife wanted to get a loan from a pawn title company. She needed to pay some bills off since she had been laid off. I offered to co-sign the loan for her. Well I forgot to pay the bill in Nov. & was intending to pay the bill for Nov & Dec at the same time, I didn't get paid untill the 24th at midnight with a direct deposit & didn't want to overdraw my checking account. The car was reposessed by 800loan mart on the 23rd at 1130pm.
It's partly my fault for paying late. But in this economy, being cut hours at work, plus having to take a pay cut per hour, I was kinda stretched.
I went on line to their website & paid them their money an extra month payment & days later was billed on their website another $400 which I also paid. Now Monday after christmas they have my money but still won't release my car. They said that they are sending my money back electronically & I will have to send them a money gram.??? What in the hell is going on. Every day my car sits in the impound yard is going to cost me money. If they released the car tomorrow I don't have the $400 or $500 to get it out. I really learned my lesson.
I am checking my bank account every hour but no credit return of the $1300 that they have of my money. It is just a game with them. They don't answer the phone, their message says to leave a message, I did twice, & was finally called back by a rude girl 6 days later. She talked to me like I was the lowest scum of the earth. I apologize, I did talk to someone Monday but only after calling for over 1 hour. I am serious, one hour calling & calling.
I fee that at this point they can have the 9 year old car but I don't want my credit ruined. I am so sorry I got a loan from them & I am sorry that I paid late. But, at this point they have all the payments a $400 repo fee & still won't release my car.
I plan to take them to small claims for the extra fees & I advise anyone not to use 800 loan mart, these people are like mafia.
The worst part is being talked to like I am a naughty stepchild, or like I am a fool. Then they acused me of trying to get ugly with them on the phone. Thank God I never used any curse words with them. I thought the way she talked to me made me want to vomit. These people have made me physically ill.
