"Auto Club" is a joke!
April 26, 2011
Auto Club
I took out a car title loan with VIP Financing 07/20/10 for $900. Originally the loan was financed and I was supposed to pay back $1033. To date I have paid back $1730. After closely looking at all of my payments, I noticed that the loan amount wasn't decreasing. So, I inquired about the total amount to the manager, Jake. He informed me that I am responsible for payments for an "Auto Club" that VIP Financing provides for their customers. I asked to get out of the "Auto Club" because I have full coverage insurance on my car with Progressive insurance, and roadside assistance is included. The "Auto Club" and my insurance company's roadside assistance provides the same services/assistance. I am to pay $50 a week towards the "Auto Club". All monies I had paid out prior to VIP Financing was going towards the "Auto Club". I informed and provided proof to VIP Financing that I do not need their "Auto Club" coverage and I want all payments to go towards the principle. I was told that I could not get out of the contract agreement, because I signed up for it. Actually, I wasn't told I could opt out of not getting the "Auto Club" service plan, if so, I wouldn't have signed for it. I still owe $843, until I pay that amount in full, I will be responsible of the $50 payments. I feel this company is a rip off, and does not provide good customer service. Prior to contacting the BBB, I tried to contact an upper management (chain of command) to address my concerns. I was told that I could only communicate directly with Jake at the local office. I am currently unemployed, and any extra monies need to go towards the principle, not the "Auto Club".

Unreliable

Stay away
I have been doing business with this company for over 3 years and have never had a problem up until now. I fell behind on my principal pmts and made a pmt plan with Crystal the nice loan rep. I was scheduled to pay of the 15th but was late 4 days, this is not typical for me as I always come in about that time and pay my bill. At 1am this morning I got a knock on the door, it was the repo man!! Despite my efforts to work something out, he couldn't and my car was repossesed! The tow men were actually nice, not like you see on TV so that you Mr. Tow Men for not doing what Mr. J.T. the manager at the Richardson branch did. This morning my hubby and I went to the location to see what could be done to get my car back, well what do you know the price went from 475 up to 1025 and something to get my car out. A ridiculous fee of $500 bucks was added to the price along with daily storage fees of $20 per day. Can anyone tell me where does customer loyalty come into play? Who can afford that? And why is the price excepionally higher than the loan? I finally get it, they want to keep your car or coerce you into doing something you don't want to...I excused myself for a moment from the building to weep and get a hold of my emotions. My husband followed to comfort me, and what do you know, Mr. J.T. comes out and says the following "I can knock off $500 dollars of your loan if you just tell me where client X car is". I attempted to explain to Mr. J.T. that I already told you he works in my building and that's all the info I have to give you. He stormed off with a non-chalant attitude. I then took 30 mins to think and call some folks for help with $$. I was not successful, so I went back in calmly and spoke with Crystal to see what can be done. J.T. rudely interupts and says "we are lying changing mileage numbers to help you and we can get in trouble for it and we want you to help us"., I stated that I didn't want you to lie b/c we won't lie b/c of our religious beliefs. He then interrupted again and said "well GOD can help you get your car and if they don't want to lie then forget it, were not going to refinance it, I am not dealing with this Shit." I then said "Mr. J.T. there is no reason to get angry with me." He jumped out of his seat and said as I was tyring to explain that there was no more information I could give him about another loan client and quote "I am not going to debate this, thats it". I was confused because the whole time as I was trying to plead my case, he was unreasonable, rudely interrupting and not letting me speak . He spirit is bitter, I have heard him deal very meanly with others who were calling in to get there cars back. He attempted to also add another client who I willingly gave info about, thinking that they were just going to attempted to collect a debt. Not repossed their car like they did. I think that this company is full of cooked, money hungry, and heartless people. Except for Crystal and her mechanic Alex that office business practices are unethical and dishonest. Sorry Crystal that you have to just sit there and watch all the evil things he does. His day is coming and thank you Crystal and Mr. Mechanic I will pray that my GOD bless you for being nice to people when they are down. I left the office feeling as if someone had died, broken in heart and spirit. I do not ever want to go through that again. I hope God forgives him for his evilness! Thank you "CanYouTrustThem" for exposing this company for what they truly are "Legal Loan Sharks", whose job is to target the poor and working class to take what little bit they have. I am warning you not to do business with them or you will end up like me.
