I called to inquire on Saturday ( XXXX/XXXX/XXXX ) about getting a vehicle. XXXX scheduled my appointment for that day at XXXX with XXXX. Once here XXXX XXXX XXXX my salesman & XXXX did my financing. I only wanted to see the inventory, but as XXXX was asking me for my information. I got a notice from XXXX XXXX that I had a new inquiry. He never told me he was running my credit nor did I give him permission to. But because I planned to buy a car & I already had a hit on my credit report I decided to follow through. I I spent 5 hours here because they had no clue what they were doing and could n't properly enter my information after I agreed to the terms of the auto loan. The original documentation XXXX showed me was a down payment of {$1000.00} with a 22 % interest rate & GAP at {$520.00} per month. I agreed to those terms. Finally an hour after they closed. XXXX XXXX walked me through the signature process. I skimmed and e-signed the documents, but was never made aware that I did n't have to e-sign. XXXX XXXX told me during signing that the " men let their pride keep us here all this time, they did n't know how to use the system. But they did n't want to ask me for help ''. I asked if XXXX XXXX had a " cool off '' period. She said no. When we got to the " XXXX XXXX XXXX '' page I noticed GAP was no longer included in the loan & the payment went down to basically {$480.00}. I asked XXXX XXXX why this information was different & why GAP was n't included. She informed me that " They probably could n't work it in the deal ''. I asked if I would be able to get my own GAP and she told me yes. I explained to her that I did n't want to have to do that, but I was ready to leave. I used my husband 's debit card to pay the {$1000.00} down payment amount. After that XXXX XXXX issued my temporary tags & registration. XXXX had someone put the tags on and I drove off. On Monday I got a " Welcome '' call from the lender XXXX XXXX around XXXX XXXX. Around XXXX on Monday, 2 days after I buy the car, XXXX calls to tell me THEY messed up my paperwork & I need to resign. He also says I may need to put down more money, but he would make sure everything was ready when I got there. I immediately called my lender ( XXXX XXXX ), I spoke with a woman named XXXX who said everything was fine, but because my employment history changed, the dealer was going to lose money. I decided to go to the dealer to see what they were talking about. I got there to resign the papers around XXXX. When I came in to resign my paperwork. Nothing in the terms changed but the down payment. They wanted me to put down an additional {$200.00}. I told them I had already spoken with XXXX XXXX and that I just needed to resign. XXXX tried to explain to me that because my job info was put in wrong & had to be changed that they had to make up for that change somewhere & that 's why the down payment went up. At this point I was upset because I had already talked to the lender, so I told XXXX I wanted to go outside & get my original paperwork. He said " Oh I can go to the car & get it for you ''. I told him it was ok I could go by myself. He said " No problem I will follow you out there ''. We walked to the car, I unlocked the doors, took the paperwork out and closed the door ( I never locked it ). When we got back inside I looked over the paperwork & the number were all the same except the down payment. We went back & forth for awhile, XXXX asked if I had the {$200.00} today & I told him no I do n't, nor would I be able to get the money. He walked away to tell XXXX. At that point I am feeling scammed, so I call credit acceptance, XXXX again tells me the deal is good on their end, but says they are basically going to lose {$700.00}, because they had misinformation on my paperwork. She said that she could speak to XXXX or XXXX if I needed her to. When I got up to look for them in the showroom. Neither was around. I told her I would call her back if needed. I was already running late for my next appointment, so I headed for the door. XXXX was walking in as I was walking out. He asked if I was leaving I said not yet. He asked if I could drive a " manual '' and I told him no. I was n't interested in another car, so as I sat in my car I decided to leave & not worry about the extra money since the lender was fine. I drove from their location to XXXX XXXX in XXXX, Maryland around XXXX. While driving XXXX & XXXX were texting & calling me nonstop ( 12 times ). I could n't open the messages & figured they were just upset I left. My phone died around XXXX. I called my husband from my stylists cell phone around XXXX XXXX. My husband informed me that XXXX XXXX had called him to say I was driving with no tags & I needed to bring the car back. I told my husband what happened at the dealership & that they were lying about the tag because I had gotten the temp tag on Saturday. I told him not to talk to them, because he was not on the loan. At XXXX my stylist walked me to the car & immediately I saw the tag was gone. I was in a panic, my stylist said well at least you have the registration if you get pulled over. So I look in the glove box for the registration, but the registration is gone. The car was locked the entire time it was in the parking lot & based on what my husband said earlier, I realized someone at XXXX took not only the tag, but the registration. Around XXXX XXXX I drove from XXXX, MD to the XXXX XXXX Police precinct to report the tags as stolen. They informed me that they at least need the tag number to file a complaint. They told me to try and get a temp tag from the XXXX in the morning, but not to drive the car. I then parked the car at my home at XXXX XXXX XXXX. Once I got my phone charged Monday night/ Tuesday morning, I realized that XXXX had texted me at XXXX to say they " Took the tags off ''. XXXX left me a voicemail saying if I did n't return with the car immediately the police would be called. The next morning I began driving a family members car to figure out what was up with the car I bought. At the XXXX I was told that the title was not filed yet so I could not get a temp tag from them I had to go to the dealership. After I left the MVA I got a text message from XXXX to " bring our car back for a refund ''. I drove to the borrowed car to XXXX & waited in the car for a bit. When I got inside XXXX was unavailable & no one else could help me so I went back to the car. XXXX came outside & tapped on the window. He asked me " why did you leave with no tags on the car? '' I asked him why would they take the tags off the car without telling me?. His response was they were going to put me in a different car so they took the tags to switch vehicles. I tell him I do n't think it 's legal to take my money, have me sign a " contract '' and then take the tags & registration from a car that I 'm a co owner on without at least saying what you will be doing. He says " all you need is {$100.00} ''. I say " I do n't have a {$100.00} ''. He asks if there is anyone I can borrow from & lists different relatives. I tell him no. He asks " Where is the car ''. I tell him where it is & that I was not going to drive without tags. He says if I want to cancel the deal I can they just need the car. I tell him they can go pick the car up because I refuse to drive with no tags. I had left the keys in the car & the doors unlocked so they would have no excuse. XXXX tells me a dealer car can follow me to my house. So I start driving and a red car with an XXXX plate starts to follow me driving on to XXXX, when I turn on XXXX the car is no longer behind me. I circle back to XXXX to see where their driver went. XXXX ca n't explain what happened, but gets on the phone trying to give the wrong address to the driver. I corrected him & he said as soon as they pick the car up I can sign the paper work. I get back in the borrowed car to wait. 20-30 mins go by. So I leave the lot to drive to my home & see if they got the car. When I get to my house around the car is gone. So I drive back to XXXX. XXXX brings me the cancellation contract paper work, but before I sign I ask when do I get my refund. He says " It usually takes 3-5 business days, but it depends on your bank ''. I ask him if they can repay me in cash or a check, because the deal getting cancelled was n't my fault. He says they can only put it back on the card. I told him since they already had my money I did n't need to wait to get it back. He asked how I paid, I told him debit. He says they can cut me a check, but it will take 24 hours. I told him I worked in businesses that cut checks, all you need to do is print one out. He said it was getting late at XXXX XXXX so the office would be closed. I told him I needed a definite answer of when my funds would be returned before I would sign. He steps into the " office '' to ask the two women ( one woman later identified herself as XXXX on a phone call ) in the office. And he comes back out with the same 3-5 day wait and that it depends on the bank. I tell him I 'm not going to sign if they will have the car immediately, but I wo n't have my money. He took the contract and walked away. So I step in the office to ask the women for clarification. They say they have nothing to do with the terms of the deal and such. But if I want a definite answer about when the money will be returned I can call my bank. I left the office & tried to find the car I purchased. They had it in a garage under the showroom. I eventually called a number listed online as a " corporate office ''. XXXX informed me he was at corporate & would transfer me to a manager. I was transferred to " XXXX '' and she said she had already spoken with me about this issue. I asked to speak to someone over her. She transferred me to " XXXX '' the " General Manager ''. He explained he could try to rework the deal if that 's what I wanted or I could just sign the contract & cancel. I told him to try to work the deal out & call me back. A sizable amount of time passed before I went back to the showroom to look for XXXX. When I came in I walked to XXXX 's desk to charge my phone & use the internet to try the bank again. At that point XXXX came over to explain the same thing XXXX did about the issue with the deal & the misinformed employment history. He said they needed to recoup and that was where the {$200.00} was coming from. I said to him " If XXXX & XXXX put my paperwork in wrong, why ca n't they split the {$200.00} 50/50 & I keep the car. Or XXXX eats the loss. I did nothing wrong, I was 100 % honest & this issue was not my problem. '' He says " he wishes it could be that easy. '' I asked him to see the cancellation contract. He asks " why? ". I tell him if I 'm going to cancel I want to know what I am signing. The [ recitals ] on the contract were fine, but the 1st paragraph ( paraphrased ) said that said they would charge me {$10.00} to cancel & I would release them from any future law suit or legal action. I slid the contract back to XXXX and told him I could not sign this document. He asked " why? ". So I told him, that the document said that I could n't sue them. He ask if I was planning on suing them. And I told him I was n't sure if they had done something illegal by taking the tags & registration without telling me or getting my consent. I asked him if it was their policy to take tags off vehicles after they got a down payment. He said they did not have a policy on that type of thing. So I told him he could continue to try to work the deal with the original down payment or he could figure a way out to cancel without the paper. He said if I planned to sue he would " rather not do business with me ''. I asked him how I would get my refund without signing. He said I could have my attorney contact him to get the refund. I thanked him & left. That night I wrote up reviews & facebook posts sharing my negative experience & asking for legal recommendations. And my husband and I opened a fraud claim with our bank XXXX. XXXX/XXXX/XXXX I informed XXXX XXXX, via a rep named XXXX that the car was no longer in my possession & asked them to escalate the issue on their end. They told me I could go to another dealer to get a car. I then informed the auto insurance broker of the situation. He said if I cancelled the insurance I would be charged an early termination fee. I also filed a complaint on the BBB & with dealer investigations at the XXXX. My husband informed me that XXXX had called him on XXXX since I was refusing their calls. Around XXXX XXXX on XXXX I went to XXXX XXXX to use my pre-approval with XXXX XXXX. XXXX 's finance team informed me that on file in the computer system I already had an open loan with XXXX XXXX, so it looked like I was trying to buy 2 cars in a week. They asked me to call credit acceptance to see if they could move it on their end. This time XXXX XXXX tells me that because my issue was escalated & I did n't cancel the contract I have to wait for resolution before I can use my preapproval. At this moment XXXX has the car & the down payment & I have an active loan in my name with XXXX XXXX. I have attached all the paperwork and I can now see that my employment date on the credit application was listed as XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. I told XXXX I had been on my job for 11 months since XXXX XXXX. I did not fill out a credit application for myself he wrote everything down. I told him I had been at my current address XXXX XXXX XXXX since XXXX XXXX, I was a junior in high school, not a licensed professional.

The notice shall identify the transaction or occurrence and clearly and conspicuously disclose the following : ( 1 ) The retention or acquisition of a security interest in the consumer 's principal dwelling. ( 2 ) The consumer 's right to rescind, ( 3 ) How to exercise the right to rescind, with a form for that purpose, designating the address of the creditor 's place of business. ( 4 ) The effects of rescission, ( 5 ) The date the rescission period expires. 15 USC 1635 ( a ) obligors right to rescind Except as otherwise provided in this section, in the case of any consumer credit transaction ( including opening or increasing the credit limit for an open end credit plan ) in which a security interest, including any such interest arising by operation of law, is or will be retained or acquired in any property which is used as the principal dwelling of the person to whom credit is extended, the obligor shall have the right to rescind the transaction until midnight of the third business day following the consummation of the transaction or the delivery of the information and rescission forms required under this section together with a statement containing the material disclosures required under this subchapter, whichever is later, by notifying the creditor, in accordance with regulations of the Bureau, of his intention to do so. The creditor shall clearly and conspicuously disclose, in accordance with regulations of the Bureau, to any obligor in a transaction subject to this section the rights of the obligor under this section. The creditor shall also provide, in accordance with regulations of the Bureau, appropriate forms for the obligor to exercise his right to rescind any transaction subject to this section. I/We were not provided with any notice of the right to rescind, the date until I have the right to rescind or with the form on how to exercise that right. Nor was I informed verbally that we had the right. 15 USC 1605 ( a ) Finance charge defined The amount of the finance charge in connection with any consumer credit transaction shall be determined as the sum of all charges, payable directly or indirectly by the person to whom the credit is extended and imposed directly or indirectly by the creditor as an incident to the extension of credit. The finance charge does not include charges of a type payable in a comparable cash transaction. The finance charge shall not include fees and amounts imposed by third party closing agents ( including settlement agents, attorneys, and escrow and title companies ) if the creditor does not require the imposition of the charges or the services provided and does not retain the charges. Examples of charges which are included in the finance charge include any of the following types of charges which are applicable : ( 1 ) Interest, time price differential, and any amount payable under a point, discount, or other system or additional charges. ( 2 ) Service or carrying charge. ( 3 ) Loan fee, finders fee, or similar charge. ( 4 ) Fee for an investigation or credit report. ( 5 ) Premium or other charge for any guarantee or insurance protecting the creditor against the obligors default or other credit loss. ( 6 ) Borrower-paid mortgage broker fees, including fees paid directly to the broker or the lender ( for delivery to the broker ) whether such fees are paid in cash or financed. ( b ) Life, accident, or health insurance premiums included in finance charge charges or premiums for credit life, accident, or health insurance written in connection with any consumer credit transaction shall be included in the finance charges unless ( 1 ) The coverage of the debtor by the insurance is not a factor in the approval by the creditor of the extension of credit, and this fact is clearly disclosed in writing to the person applying for or obtaining the extension of credit ; and ( 2 ) In order to obtain the insurance in connection with the extension of credit, the person to whom the credit is extended must give specific affirmative written indication of his desire to do so after written disclosure to him of the cost thereof. ( c ) Property damage and liability insurance premiums included in finance charge Charges or premiums for insurance, written in connection with any consumer credit transaction, against loss of or damage to property or against liability arising out of the ownership or use of property, shall be included in the finance charge unless a clear and specific statement in writing is furnished by the creditor to the person to whom the credit is extended, setting forth the cost of the insurance if obtained from or through the creditor, and stating that the person to whom the credit is extended may choose the person through which the insurance is to be obtained. finance charge Information required by this subchapter shall be disclosed clearly and conspicuously, in accordance with regulations of the Bureau. The terms annual percentage rate and finance charge shall be disclosed more conspicuously than other terms, data, or information provided in connection with a transaction, except information relating to the identity of the creditor. I/we were not disclosed clearly and conspicuously of our finance charge. When asked, I was told that itemization of amount financed was it. Which is not. Itemization of amount financed is a breakdown after the finance charge. Also, the finance charge is not correct. It states that the finance charge is XXXX when it should be more because as shown above his insurance/gap insurance ( XXXX ) and warranty ( XXXX ) is supposed to be included in finance charge bring it to at least XXXX. 15 USC 6803 Finance institutions have requirements under law on how to disclose consumer nonpublic personal information and format to do so. Those steps were not followed. ( a ) States At the time of establishing a customer relationship with a consumer and not less than annually during the continuation of such relationship, a financial institution shall provide a clear and conspicuous disclosure to such consumer, in writing or in electronic form or other form. On that form it must have ( 1 ) the policies and practices of the institution with respect to disclosing nonpublic personal information to nonaffiliated third parties, other than agents of the institution. ( 2 ) the categories of persons to whom the information is or may be disclosed, other than the persons to whom the information may be provided. ( 3 ) the categories of nonpublic personal information that are collected by the financial institution. ( 4 ) the policies that the institution maintains to protect the confidentiality and security of nonpublic personal information. The model form should be comprehensible to consumers, with a clear format and design ; provide for clear and conspicuous disclosures ; enable consumers easily to identify the sharing practices of a financial institution and to compare privacy practices among financial institutions ; and be succinct, and use an easily readable type font. 15 USC 6802 States a financial institution may not, directly or through any affiliate, disclose to a nonaffiliated third party any nonpublic personal information, unless such financial institution provides or has provided to the consumer a notice. A financial institution may not disclose nonpublic personal information to a nonaffiliated third party unless such financial institution clearly and conspicuously discloses to the consumer, in writing or in electronic form or other form permitted by the regulations prescribed under section 6804 of this title, that such information may be disclosed to such third party ; the consumer is given the opportunity, before the time that such information is initially disclosed, to direct that such information not be disclosed to such third party ; and the consumer is given an explanation of how the consumer can exercise that nondisclosure option. I/We were not given any form that would meet those requirements. When an obligor exercises his right to rescind, he is not liable for any finance or other charge, and any security interest given by the obligor, including any such interest arising by operation of law, becomes void upon such a rescission. Within 20 days after receipt of a notice of rescission, the creditor shall return to the obligor any money or property given as earnest money, down payment, or otherwise, and shall take any action necessary or appropriate to reflect the termination of any security interest created under the transaction. If the creditor has delivered any property to the obligor, the obligor may retain possession of it. Upon the performance of the creditors obligations under this section, the obligor shall tender the property to the creditor, except that if return of the property in kind would be impracticable or inequitable, the obligor shall tender its reasonable value. Tender shall be made at the location of the property or at the residence of the obligor, at the option of the obligor. If the creditor does not take possession of the property within 20 days after tender by the obligor, ownership of the property vests in the obligor without obligation on his part to pay for it. Where the creditor fails to provide the consumer with a designated address for sending the notification of rescission, delivery of the notification to the person or address to which the consumer has been directed to send payments constitutes delivery to the creditor or assignee. State law determines whether delivery of the notification to a third party other than the person to whom payments are made is delivery to the creditor or assignee, in the case where the creditor fails to designate an address for sending the notification of rescission. To exercise the right to rescind, the consumer shall notify the creditor of the rescission by mail, telegram, or other means of written communication. Notice is considered given when mailed, or when filed for telegraphic transmission, or, if sent by other means, when delivered to the creditors designated place of business.

I have a car financed through Credit Acceptance Corporation, and it started in XX/XX/XXXX . We went to a XXXX , Alabama car dealership because we needed a car. They got us financed through Credit Acceptance, be cause we have credit problems. We bought a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX , because it was cheap. When we got the car the payments were $ XXXX . We had never missed a payment nor was ever late, until XX/XX/XXXX . My wife and I are both XXXX and live on a fixed income. I am a retired XXXX XXXX XXXX employee. We do not have a lot of money and barely have enough to survive each month. I contacted Credit Acceptance a nd asked if we could skip the XX/XX/XXXX payment due to a hardship. They said, even though we had not missed a payment before, that we could not skip XX/XX/XXXX payment. They said if we could pay approximately {$100.00}, that they could extend the payment and that XX/XX/XXXX payment would be {$210.00} ( a pproximately ) plus the regular payment of XXXX . We had no choice but accept these terms, or so we were told. I made the regular payment, on time, th at XX/XX/XXXX , I made the XX/XX/XXXX payment on time, also. Some time, toward the XX/XX/XXXX , I h eard a noise outside that sounded like someone had pulled into my garage. When I went outside to investigate, I saw a tow truck ( repo agent ) pulling out of my driveway, with my car in tow. We call ed Credit Acceptance an d they advised me that we did not make XX/XX/XXXX payment on time. I knew I had made the payment. Upon further discussion with my wife, their agent ( Credit Acceptance ) told her that the regular payment was made but not the {$210.00} amount we agreed to pay with the regular payment and because we did not make it, we had not " lived up to our end of the revised payment '' plan. I had forgotten about making the extra payment, an honest mistake. They repossessed the car ( entered into my enclosed garage without my permission, which is considered burgla ry ( a felony ) in Alabama, and damaged the car and my garage, in doing so. I did not file a report because what good would it have done to help our situation? Besides, felonies in the State of Alabama have a three ( 3 ) year statute of limitations for burglary I took pictures of the garage. We were told we could get our car back if we made roughly a {$500.00} payment. My wife told the agent of our situation and she would not work with us. We were told if we made a {$500.00} payment to Credit Acceptance before the was auctioned off. they would let us continue making the payments and keep our car. We skipped a mortgage payment to make this {$500.00} payment. We were given the number and address of the auction yard ( in XXXX ) and called them. I asked when we could get the car and they informed us that the car had fender damage when it came and t hat one of their lot attendants had hit the car in the parking with a forklift. They also said that the car already had a dent in the front left fender and driver 's side door. I said there was not a dent on the car before it was repossessed. She told me that we would have to wait ( it took 8 more days ) to get our car and that they would fix the dent ( s ) , for no charge to us. We got the car and and it was making a horrible noise in the transmission, the trunk would not close and the air conditioner and radio was not working. The auctioneer said it was that way when they got it and I said it was not. She agreed to waive some fee ( we did not even know that any other fees existed ) due to the problems we were having XXXX problems not of our doing ) I had to fix some other problems, once I got the car back. I had to fix a headlight, blinker and taillight radio and air conditioner, that was damaged by the repo agent and/or the auctioneer, costing even more money. The y ( Credit Acceptance ) sa id that our payments had increased to {$380.00}, due to the repossession and assorted fees. I made XX/XX/XXXX {$380.00} on time. It was XX/XX/XXXX when I remembered to make that month 's payment. I paid it, only being a day late and thought nothing else of it. Some time, around XX/XX/XXXX , I heard a familiar noise around my garage. It was the repo agent and he had come to repo the car, again, from inside my garage. I went and talked to him ( begging him if front of our neighbors ; telling him of my wife 's medical problems and that we had to have a car to get her to her doctors appointments ) and I told him this was a mistake ; I know I made the payment this month. He said he was just doing what he was supposed to do. I got my camera and took pictures of the car and the garage and told him that he had damaged my car and garage last time and that it was illegal for him to enter my garage. He told me to take it up with Credit Acceptance. He th en got a camera, after pulling the car partially out of the garage, and took pictures himself. I got him to wait until I go t Credit Acceptance on the phone. I spoke to them and they advised me that because i had made the payment a day late that the previous agreement wa s null and void and if we wanted to keep the car we would have to negotiate new payment arrangements. They ( Credit Acceptance ) a lso spoke to the repo agent and he told them he had already " hooked-up '' the car, which, at that time he had not attached the car to his boom. My wife worked out an agreement where we would have to pay {$500.00}, again, but we would be able to get our car from the repo lot in XXXX and our payments were once again increased to {$380.00}, this time. I have made every one of the payments on time, since. This mon th ( XX/XX/XXXX ) I had forgotten the payment but remembered at about XXXX cst on XX/XX/XXXX , to make it. I worried about a time zone difference but remembered that Michigan ( where Credit Acceptance is located ) is on central time. On XX/XX/XXXX , we received a call from a young lady w ith Credit Acceptance. They said that because my payment was late, I had defaulted on the previous payment arrangement. I did not get upset or raise my voice but I told her that I had made the payment on the third, just like we had agreed to do. She stated that I did make the payment on the third but that the payment did not post to my account until the fourth, I was considered in default. I became furious and asked her to speak to my wife, because I was worried I would lose my temper with the caller. My wife was told the payment did not post to our account until the fourth. She ( my wife ) asked the caller how we could rectify the situation and was told if we made another payment of XXXX XXXX and change on our account, everything would be fine, no repossession this time. So, I went back into our account and paid {$26.00} ( al so, we pay the note through their website using XXXX XXXX . It costs us an extra {$3.00} each time we make payment, for using this service, on top of the {$380.00 } ) becau se my wife said it was XXXX and could not remember the exact amount and I did not want our car taken again. I got to stressing last night about the whole ordeal and advised my wife that we had been through this wi th Credit Acceptance t wice before, made the payment on time, only to have the car taken anyway and that I was not going to let them, for lack of a better word, " XXXX '' us over again. I filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau, on line, last night. I was still worried about them coming to get our car so my wife said I should c all Credit Acceptance, to ease my worries. I called and spoke to a young lady and she advised me that she would have to transfer me to their legal department. I asked why are legal handling my call and she said because of the complaint I filed with the BBB. I told her I was not concerned with talking to legal and that I just wanted reassurance that our car was not going to be repossessed again. She said she could not make that promise because the payment was " late ''. Once again, I went through the trouble of explaining that I had made the payment on the third and once again they said that it showed I made the payment on the third but that it did not post until the fourth ( yesterday ). I asked her why, if she could actually determine I did make the payment on the third, did I have to worry about my car being repossessed? She started telling me something so I gave my wife the phone. She told my wife the same thing. My wife told her we had made a {$26.00} payment, on the fourth, and were told that the car would not be repossessed. This young wom an ( toda y ) then told my wife that because I had filed a complaint with the BBB, she could not guarantee the car would not be repossessed. My wife told her what the young lady had assured us of yesterday. She said she did not know why that young lady told us that and that she ( the woman I spoke with today ) could not make that promise, since I had lodged a complaint ( basically extortion or coercion to keep us from filing a complaint was what I took this statement to mean ). She then transferred my wife to someone named " XXXX '', in the legal dept. My wife went through the whole spiel all over again only to be told that " XXXX '' could not talk about our account because of the complaint. My wife then stated " Why did she transfer me to you if you can not talk to me about my account? ". She was told that since I had filed the complaint she ( XXXX ) could not discuss our account unti l our Credit Acceptance " account manager '' ( I was not aware that we had an " account manager '' ) had contacted us. My wife inquired how long that would take and was told 72 h ours or more but the car would not go into repossession mode until the " account manger '' had spoken to us, and advise us what will be the course of action that they will take. My main complaint is : How do they get away with this practice? It is immoral and should be illegal. I am hoping you can help us with this and maybe recoup some of the money we have had pay for this car. The finance price was over {$12000.00} ( twic e the blue book value ) but when you are poor with credit problems, you have little to no choice, when it comes to the predatory lending companies. Also, because we had to miss a mortgage payment to make these payments to get our car back out of repossession statu s ( twi ce ), our home has gone into foreclosure and we are probably going to be evicted, before this matter is resolved. We have many illnesses and our bills are plenty. We seem to not be able to catch a break. Thanks for any advice or help you may be able to provide us.

SUBJECT : KILLING CONTRACT DUE TO UNPROFESSIONALISM OF SERVICES ; In the year XXXX, I bought a used XXXX SUV/Car XXXX XXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX Wisconsin, ( Biggest Mistake Ever Made to my Demise ), They use the load business called " Credit Acceptance '' which supposedly gives consumers or first time buyers with low credit a option to purchase a vehicle. The car was priced according to the salesman at XXXX by the time financing went through tax and license and all that gumbo, the total in all averaged out to XXXX at the payments of XXXX per month. I only fell back once in XXXX due to hardships in job changing, after all that I managed to build myself back and continue my payments to this company monthly. THE ISSUE OF TIME FRAMES : I XXXX XXXX XXXX for a living, you know those XXXX XXXX XXXX with XXXX XXXX, not your XXXX lil XXXX 's, this job is high demand and requires reliable XXXX to XXXX XXXX to customers, my daily work week is anywhere from 8 to 10 sometimes 12 hours of XXXX, back to back XXXX, i get one 30 minute break in-between XXXX which is to give me time to eat and rest before finishing out my other 8 hours or more XXXX time. By the end of the day it can be XXXX or XXXX XXXX depending on schedules when im to shut down by federal law for 10 hours before my time resets for XXXX XXXX. This takes up allot of my time to get personal things done physically, so most time when i can i try to get my financial dealings by phone done when i can, it's a XXXX of a way to spend your 30 minutes but a necessity to to the demands needed and the jobs to get done! I am not going to throw my job or customer to the curb for any measly little business on the side, certainly not this one or any other. CAR REPAIRS STARTED 2 MOS AFTER PURCHASE : Within 2 months of having this vehicle, I had to replace the alternator which i was charged for by the dealership which was supposed to be covered under warranty, XXXX 6 months later after that I had to buy a brand new battery because the car was dead.. which is covered for a year by the manufacturer, my company ordered the battery for me which is deducted out of my paycheck, however within 8 months I needed another battery because that one died. Now mind you, i am paying this loan joke XXXX every month on time as said in contract, however the car began giving me engine problems, not to forget the fact, when this car was bought it had a fuel hose throat problem, you couldn't fill the car like you would normally, which usually takes 15 minutes to fill up a car depending on pump speed which is usually pretty quick, it would take me 30 minutes because the fuel would begin to pump but cut off midstream, i had to wait 5 minutes each time before beginning to pump again. This is what the dealership sold me was a complete lemon of problems, then the heater coils i found out were bad, couldn't defrost the windows, no heat would come out, AC worked great that's it, so to get the coils fixed and the fuel issue fixed that ran me approx XXXX that was in XXXX, then the engine went, some valve or gasket blew, another XXXX approx, all out of pocket expense while still paying credit acceptance XXXX each month, XXXX rolls around, now i have a window button problem for the drivers side, and the air in one of the tires is leaking, dont know which one as well as some fuel cap warning coming up on the dash board. Back in shop it goes, another XXXX bucks out of pocket, except for the tire leakage. XXXX XXXX would of charged me a XXXX allot more using the excuse my warranty wouldn't cover these things, so i went to another recommended mechanic who even though was pricey but fair, they did the job right the first time! The only regret I had was the dealership never bothered to really check this used car before putting it on the lot to sell, they just bought it from another sales place and went with what ever info of ownership was on the paper work, the car isnt even worth XXXX period, these cars or suvs value when they were in manufacturing roughly under XXXX, XXXX / XXXX stopped making them due to the recalls of problems people had with them, various different issues. Now here comes battery number 3 just 1 month over the year warranty of the other 2 and i had too buy another new battery. By this time, According to Credit Acceptance, my balance from XXXX grand is now XXXX, XXXX pay off, but heres where it gets down right XXXX ... Each time i had to call these people for an adjustment over the phone from their reps they claimed are so highly trained properly ( cough ) i was met with ignorance, XXXX and XXXX behavior enough to get me to begin screaming at them as they wasted my time, I dont know how many times i have told this joke of a place, I dont have time to call you when you snap your fingers asking me to jump buildings at your demands, nor do i have to explain to you my personal routines so you can come up with ideas to XXXX me over cause you got a issue you dont make good money where you work, that's not my XXXX problem! They have a website where you can schedule a payment ahead of time which i have used many times because i cant call this payment in every XXXX day of each month, so i make arrangements for it to be scheduled for these dates or earlier, course this loan place will drag its feet collecting the funds tying me up to move forward to pay other bills. Well the killer of this was over the XXXX weekend ... I knew my schedules with work were going to be pushed as the holidays were rolling in so was high demands of getting XXXX and such XXXX, I was going to be too busy to be bothered making calls, and it being the holidays most places would be closed. I get paid every Thursday per week, I made an arrangement on their site to pay this time XXXX on the XXXX of XXXX, however our pay period let us know we would be getting paid a day early. So Since i was at a customer on XX/XX/XXXX, and had to make a fast call to CA asking them if they could cancel the XXXX schedule and use the XXXX schedule to make the payment as the banks would be closed etc, i was met with a XXXX lazy rep who had nerve to tell me, you can do this yourself online! Oh that did it! I hit the roof, again here i am explaining to another XXXX i dont have the time to change anything online, that is why i am calling, can you just cancel the XXXX scheduled XXXX and use it for the XXXX? how hard is it to grasp this? She said fine, or so i thought it was fine, I proceeded to make the XXXX payment, paid their XXXX merchant fees of paymentaus, and ended the call. 2 hours later i checked my bank and saw i had roughly XXXX around there left in balance after the car payment went through, so i took the opportunity to pay some other bills in advance to avoid late fees etc, and calculated it down to a T, leaving me enough to use while over XXXX XXXX til next payday. COVID 19 EXCUSES This pandemic i know has made it hard to many to work, some dont have any work others are forced to work from home, credit acceptance is one of those who have their reps work from home. I have heard the excuse due to this covid 19, people make mistakes, XXXX! Thats as lame as a student telling the teacher the dog ate their homework. Well here comes the XXXX, and i check my bank account, and to my horror i am now negative XXXX! I am like what the XXXX happened? The transactions didnt begin coming through til later that day around XXXX XXXX, thats when i noticed the first XXXX to Credit acceptance was pending long with others that were minor and i was puzzled, in the next hour more transactions pending began to appear, and bamn there it was, the rep didnt bother to cancel the XXXX payment and it too was pending i was hitting the roof, i went into my stock account immediately and liquidated all my stock trying to come up with the funds to transfer into my account to cover the negative before my bank would hit me with NFS fees of XXXX a pop, but found i couldn't transfer anything cause it was a newly bought stock and needed tme to accumulate, so this now put me in probation mode for 30 days meaning i couldn't touch anything for 3 months! Thats when i really hit the roof! XX/XX/XXXX, - my balance in my bank is now negative XXXX! so I called my bank and filed a dispute to have that loan company reverse the charges and then i called the loan place and chewed out another rep and told her, if that money isnt reversed within 24 hours im reporting this as theft! she told me i could of left the scheduled payment as is and the money would of been retrieved the next working business day, and i told her how in the XXXX am i to know that? and what makes you people think i can jump on a computer and cancel when XXXX XXXX an XXXX XXXX all day long? its time consuming and now you people have put me in a XXXX of a situation. I cant have this, since XXXX i have been haggled by you people trying to make adjustments i have tried to be pleasant only to end up screaming at you all because you ask all these XXXX questions like im in some XXXX deposition for court! I dont have time to be held up while you all sit on your butts doing nothing at home blaming covid 19 for your hangups! GET REAL! AS of TODAY XX/XX/XXXX, i am now negative XXXX! The repairs on this car shouldn't of had to happen, the cost of this car over its value was a sham, and now im dealing with amateurs who shouldn't be running this frat at all. I reported it to the Michigan XXXX where this company apparently is based out of, and told them I am killing the contract, i dont want the car,, i dont need to do business with XXXX, i will be contacting the creditor bureaus explaining the deflect of my decision cause i know just like with XXXX XXXX, these people are going to throw a coniption fit and spew allot of negative remarks on my credit report. Frankly i dont give a XXXX because i am just going to save up all i can and buy my next car BRAND NEW STRAIGHT OUT so i dont have to deal with loan sharks anymore. So if you CPFB feel this poor babies are being bullied by me in such a hateful manner after the sham they just pulled, how about i contact XXXX XXXX investigation report and have them air it online? Because the reviews i have read about this loan shark are not very good in fact they have done more damage then good for a person.

First and foremost, Credit Acceptance has been getting away with fraud for so long that you think it is truth and what you say is the Law. I know the law. I am not obligated to do anything regarding any contract when misleading, deceptive, and unfair practices are involved. Therefore, the account in question is invalid, cancelled and paid in advance as I stated in my last letter. Once again, I did not receive a welcome letter on XX/XX/XXXX, from your companies saying anything about reporting late payments, missed payments or other defaults. I have the right to say I do not want to participate in that. CREDIT ACCEPTANCE is a financial institution. Financial institutions need your consent to disclose any non-personal information to any third party. 15 USC 6802 ( B ) ( 1 ) ( B ) clearly states you have to get my consent before releasing non-personal information to any third party. Just to be clear, this goes for the credit bureaus, repossession companies, collection agencies, and this list goes on. The documents you attached about the disclosure I have never seen, witnessed or acknowledged. I do not have copies of those documents, only you and your companies. I should have received every single page of the contract. This is deceptive violation since Credit Acceptance and the car dealership are hiding and not presenting documents and forging my signature onto documents, I had no knowledge of. 15 US Code 1681 ( b ) and 15 US Code 1681 ( a ) ( 2 ) clearly states consent is needed for everything reported on my consumer report, but when did I give you consent? The code also states I have the right to confidentiality and privacy as a consumer. I did not consent on XX/XX/XXXX, and I do not consent now. Therefore, Credit Acceptance will have to correct all of the false reports made on my credit report since I never gave you permission or consent. 15 US Code 1681e ( b ) says everything on consumer report is supposed to report to maximum possible accuracy. Yet the FCRA says transactions, experiences, and approvals of credit arent included in consumers reports per 15 US Code 1681a ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) ( B ). Once again, your companies did not give me the opportunity to decline or consent to you reporting experiences or transactions to my credit report. This is a violation, you stated in your letter that sending this disclosure form satisfied your companys obligations for information sharing and privacy, since I did not receive this letter, you mentioned. I do not consent, and I never have consented to your companies sharing my information with ANY and EVERY third party thats exists. CREDIT ACCEPTANCE does need my permission before executing anything involving my all-capital letter name XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX my social security number, or anything else pertaining to me as the beneficiary. GET THAT CLEAR. Not many challenge your company so Credit Acceptance thinks the corporation can do what they want, but I am here to show you otherwise. How do you respect my privacy if Credit Acceptance Corp did not tell me about XXXX XXXX XXXX, the indentured trustee for Credit Acceptance Corp, that is the vice president of XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX You may trick other consumers, but you are not tricking me. You may think that you have all of the power and what you say is law, but I am not obligated to pay this debt. I will not pay this debt. I know the car was paid for in advance per 18 US Code 8, HJR 192 and 31 USC 3123. HJR 192 of 1933 clearly states Every obligation, heretofore or hereafter incurred, whether or not any such provisions are contained therein or made with respect to thereto, shall be discharged upon payment, dollar for dollar, in any such coin or currency which at that time is legal tender for public and private debts. 31 USC 3123 says the secretary of treasury shall pay interest due or accrued on the public debt. 31 CFR 357.13 says A Federal Reserve Bank credits the appropriate amount of interest on Book-entry Securities to a Funds Account maintained at the Bank, or pays it as directed by the Participant. Book-entry Securities are redeemed according to their terms, a Federal Reserve Bank withdraws the securities from the Participant 's Securities Account in which they are maintained, and either Credits the amount of the Redemption proceeds, including both principal and interest, where applicable, to a Funds Account at the Bank, or Pays such principal and interest as directed by the Participant. This means all obligations are discharged and credits will be applied to the funds account as directed by the participant. I would be considered the participant in this case. It also says nothing is required by the participant. Anytime a consumers social security number is used in a transaction it pays the transaction off legally. I know my consumer laws and I know Credit Acceptance Corp has violated many if not all of them. 15 US Code 1692j says it is unlawful to design, compile, and furnish any form knowing that such form would be used to create the false belief in a consumer that a person other than the creditor of such consumer is participating in the collection of or in an attempt to collect a debt such consumer allegedly owes such creditor, when in fact such person is not so participating. Credit acceptance is not the creditor and is in violation of 15 US Code 1692j, and you should not be sending me bills in the mail claiming I owe a debt that I do not owe. Credit Acceptance has created a false belief in making me believe I owe a debt that does not belong to me. This would be considered a deceptive form. The law tells us all debt, public and private, belong to the United States and are prepaid per 18 US Code 8, it does not say debt belongs to consumers. Credit Acceptance has willingly failed to provide me with full disclosure of my right to rescind the contract per 12 CFR 1026.23. The company has failed to let me know my contract was a financial asset that paid for the car once I got it. Your company also misrepresented the finance charge by not giving me a summary of all charges. Your companies have violated several consumer laws that I pointed out in the last letters, and I will point it out in this one again. I have third party companies created to protect me from predatory lending companies like you when I am out getting approved for things on credit. The contract you have attached is not the same one I received. I am missing several pages. I definitely have never seen the arbitration clause page or the CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION DISCLOSURE FORM until now. I know for a fact that my signature was forged upon those 2 documents. I wonder what other documents I have not seen, and my signatures were forged upon using E-signature system. The car dealership specifically told me out of their mouth EXTENDED WARRANTY and GAAP are mandatory. This misleading, deceptive, and unfair once again because it made me confused. Your companies are not supposed to mislead or direct consumers into a direction without full consent and true knowledge. You can not just disrespect and violate consumers rights. I never signed a document stating I would give all I owe under a security interest. Page 4 of the contract that you uploaded shows the dealers signature and my initials at the bottom with an E-signature. I did not sign, agree or acknowledge that, I dont have that page included with the contract given to me. You state I signed documents that I have never seen, with no proof. I also did not agree to that price of the vehicle you stated. Credit Acceptance and the car dealership forged my signature onto other documents using the E-signature system which is a serious felony. Once again, I am not obligated to pay anything your company claims. I am not obligated to do anything and as a consumer I have the right to get out of any contract involving fraud and deceptive acts. I am not trapped in any contract with any corporation as a living flesh breathing soul giving to me by the MOST HIGH GOD. Credit Acceptance is not the most high God therefore I am not obligated to do anything this company tells me. Credit Acceptance and its companies resemble the devil using deceptive, misleading information, and taking advantage of consumers. For me to be legally bonded to a contract there has to be a signature with both involved parties. The law clearly states that. Do you think you can just tell me anything? There has to be a contract with my signature and an agent from Credit Acceptance for this contract to be legally bound. That is a Uniform Commercial Code law. Consumer credit transactions are only cash in hand. I dont remember receiving a check, cash money, or a money order to pay for this vehicle. Where is the proof that Credit acceptance actually loaned anything in collateral for the vehicle. Inside your XXXX and XXXX filings credit acceptance is listed as a borrower, servicer, issuer, but not a lender. What did you lend? Credit Acceptance is not a creditor. I suggest you reread my previous letters sent and its entirety because they still stand and the remedy, I have set in place also still stands. I will attach them again for reference. I am fully disputing this debt that was in paid in full until you update everything I have demanded. Car dealership and Credit Acceptance Corp forged my signature on to many documents because as I have just gotten to the end of this letter and have taken a clear look of the retail installment contract I received from the car dealership ; I am missing several pages. This contract is no longer valid due to the fraud your companies have committed. If you do not understand the seriousness of this letter, I suggest you reach out to your superiors. Lastly, the remedy that I have set forth in the previous letter still stands but instead of cancelling out the securities you earned from my signature and the contract, send or transfer all securities to my XXXX account. I also do not consent to your companies releasing my information to a third-party repossession company and having them attempt to steal my car from my private property ( driveway or garage ). I do not consent to anyone affiliated with Credit Acceptance or its third-party coming to my private property. Any corporation or person who violates my rights and wishes will pay the price.

I recently received a copy of my XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX credit report, and I noticed some late payments posted on my credit report. Late payment dates : XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX Your company is in clear violation of the law. Under 15 U.S. Code 1681b - Permissible purposes of consumer reports, THE LAW CLEARLY STATES : ( a ) In general Subject to subsection ( c ), any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : ( 2 ) In accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates. Did I give you written instructions to furnish this account on my credit report? Furthermore, the FAIR CREDIT REPORTING ACT 15 U.S. Code 1681 ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) Exclusions from a consumer credit report clearly states : ( 2 ) Exclusions.Except as provided in paragraph ( 3 ), the term consumer report does not include ( A ) subject to section 1681s3 of this title, any ( i ) report containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report ; Delete the above late payments from my consumer report, this is in violation of 15 U.S. Code 1681b Failure to respond satisfactorily with deletion of the above referenced account will result in legal actions being taken against your company, for which I will also be seeking {$1000.00} per violation for : 1. Defamation of Character ( per se ) 2. Negligent Enablement of Identity Fraud 3. Fair Debt Collection Practices Act 15 U.S. Code 1692g violations 4. Fair Credit Reporting Act 15 U.S. Code 1681 violations for willful noncompliance- 616. Civil Liability for willful noncompliance ( 15 U.S. Code 1681n ) AFFIDAVIT OF FACT In The Matter Of : XXXX XXXX, a man / woman To : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, a woman/man ; Dear Credit XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX woman/man, You,, a woman/man, have engaged in multiple violations against I, a woman, without right. I recently looked at my car contract and found many issues that are in direct violation of my consumer rights under 15 U.S. Code 1605 and 16 CFR 433.1d. I am a woman, the consumer in fact it is my understanding that I am going to tell the truth the whole truth in all matters here. Having so qualified my testimony I now take my affidavit and submit it into court record in full and state that everything in my Affidavit is the truth and the whole truth for the record. Made under penalty of perjury. I, a woman, the consumer in fact has personal knowledge of, and asseverate the following : 1. Fact, I, a woman, the consumer know that The Fair Credit Reporting Act 15 USC 1681 was made by congress to ensure accuracy and fairness of credit reporting. The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. XXXX. Fact, I, a woman, the consumer knows that on XX/XX/XXXX, I purchased a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Sedan from XXXX XXXX XXXX through XXXX XXXX. I know that XXXX CFR XXXX is a purchase money loan that is a cash advance which is received by a consumer in return for a finance charge within the meaning of the Truth in Lending Act and XXXX XXXX I was never disclosed about a purchase money loan let alone knowing that it was actually a cash advance that was due to me. The salesman never made me aware of this during the consummation of the contract. Another violation was the withholding or not being disclosed that I was signing this money over to the finance company Credit Acceptance. I was told that Credit Acceptance would be the one who was lending me the money when in fact that was false and a lie and a violation of my consumer rights. Under the Truth in Lending Act and Regulation Z, I was lied to by the creditor because I was really giving them my cash advance, I never knew about from my purchase money loan that was due to me and signing it over to the finance company. As a consumer, I legally have a right to know that my signature is being sold/transferred to another party and the process of the finance charge. The contract is a XXXX XXXX XXXX not a XXXX XXXX XXXX as stated on top which is another lie and violation. The contract was with XXXX, XXXX but somehow Credit Acceptance got involved without me knowing and being fully disclosed on how. How can the dealership transfer/sell my signature and the security interest in the vehicle to another party when the contract I have with them is not even binding because technically their signature is not even on contract because the dealership can not speak nor talk so how do they have any control over what happens to the contract ; they dont. I walked into the dealership to purchase a vehicle under a consumer credit transaction per law 15 USC1602 and I am the original creditor per law 15 USC 1692A ( 4 ) but was not made aware or fully disclosed that my signature and cash advance from the purchase money loan was being sold/given to another party which is Credit Acceptance. This is a violation of my rights which voids the entire contract altogether. 3. Fact, I, a woman, the consumer also knows that 15 U.S. Code 1605 is determination of finance charge which is defined as the amount of the finance charge in connection with any consumer credit transaction shall be determined as the sum of all charges, payable directly or indirectly by the person to whom the credit is extended and imposed directly or indirectly by the creditor as an incident to the extension of credit. The finance charge does not include charges of a type of payable in a comparable cash transaction. If the finance charge supposed to be the sum of all charges and does not include charges comparable to cash, then why was I required and told by said dealership above and in question that I had to make a down payment in order to get the vehicle. I made a down payment of {$2500.00} cash but was not made aware or disclosed by the creditors XXXX, XXXX and Credit Acceptance on XX/XX/XXXX, that I actually was not required to make said payment because its included in finance charge, but it is also illegal under 15 U.S. Code 1605. Definition of finance is to provide funding for something and in this case the funding was for a vehicle but how can I be given money for a vehicle but at the same time have to give cash in order to get the funding. This is the purpose of truth and lending to fully disclose what my finance charge is and everything that is included and said company above has violated my consumer rights by not doing so which caused me to suffer a financial hardship because the deposit for the vehicle was my savings and I did not want to put anything down towards the vehicle but again was advised by the creditor I had to. 4. Fact, I, a woman, the consumer knows that 15 U.S. Code 1605a explains what a finance charge includes which is interest, time price differential, and any amount payable under a point, discount, or other system or additional charges. Service or carrying charge, Loan fee, finders fee, or similar charge. Fee for an investigation or credit report and Premium or other charge for any guarantee or insurance protecting the creditor against the obligors default or other credit loss. XXXX XXXX and Credit Acceptance, a woman/man, have engaged in violations under this law because I was charged multiple fees such as {$75.00} for dealership fee, extended warranty {$1500.00}, sales tax of {$810.00}, DMV fee of {$180.00}, charges and mounts paid to other in my behalf of {$1800.00} and Emission test fee {$21.00}. I also show an itemization of amount financed for some of these items separately, but I shouldnt because thats more money you are adding on to the finance charge from what you already said I was paying under the finance charge at top of the contract. Again, this is another violation of my rights under 15 U.S. Code 1605 that caused me financial hardship because I had to include more money out of my pocket for these fees which raised my car note even more monthly. This goes against my consumer rights that you have violated. 5. Fact, I, a woman, the consumer knows that 15 U.S. Code 1605 b and 15 U.S. Code 1605c states Life, Accident, Or Health Insurance Premiums and Property Damage and Liability Insurance Premiums are included in the Finance Charge. Charges or premiums for credit life, accident, or health insurance written in connection with any consumer credit transaction shall be included in the finance charges. During the consummation of the contract, I was asked did I have insurance but never stated that the premium was supposed to be included in the finance charge. I did not receive a statement or disclosure from the creditor stating that I was entitled to have my premium included in finance charge, therefore they withheld this information and lied to me throughout this transaction. I, a woman ... : woman, am not an expert in the law, however I do know right from wrong. If there is any man or woman damaged by any statements herein, if they inform me by facts, I will sincerely make every effort to amend my ways. I hereby and herein reserve the right to amend and make amendment to this document as necessary in order that the truth may be ascertained, and proceedings justly determined. If the parties given notice by means of this document have information that would controvert and overcome this Affidavit of Fact, please advise me In written affidavit form within ten [ 10 ] days from receipt. Provide me with your counter-affidavit, proving with particularity by stating all requisite actual evidentiary fact and all requisite actual law, and not merely the ultimate facts or conclusions of law, proving that this Affidavit of Fact is substantially and materially false sufficiently, to change materially my Status and factual declarations. Your silence stands as consent to, and tacit agreement of, the Claim and factual declarations made herein being established as matters of fact and matters of law. I, a woman ... : woman declare under penalty of perjury, that all herein be true, and will testify viva voce in open Court, that all herein be, true, so help me God.

TO : XXXX XXXX XXXX : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX This letter is a formal complaint that you are reporting inaccurate and incomplete credit information. I am distressed that you have included the below information in my credit profile and have failed to maintain reasonable procedures in your operations to assure maximum possible accuracy in the credit reports you furnish. I am maintaining a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC and or a civil suite should you continue in your non-compliance. I further remind you that, as in 15 U.S. Code 1681 ( n ), you may be liable for your willful non-compliance. Credit reporting laws ensure that financial institution must report only 100 % accurate credit information. Every step must be taken to assure the information reported is completely accurate and correct. The following information therefore needs to be reinvestigated. Congress has also stated that unfair credit reporting undermines public confidence, which congress has made clear, is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. Which you fail to do. Pursuant 15 U.S Code 166b ( a ), A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open-end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose. In responds of my CFPB complaint ID XXXX, as shown in Exhibit ( A ) you have stated my review confirms that we provided you with notice about our information sharing practices in the Welcome Letter we sent to you on XX/XX/XXXX. That letter stated : WE MAY REPORT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR ACCOUNTS TO CREDIT BUREAUS. LATE PAYMENTS, MISSED PAYMENTS OR OTHER DEFAULTS ON YOUR ACCOUNT MAY BE REFLECTED IN YOUR CREDIT REPORT. We also sent you a copy of our Annual Privacy Notice on XX/XX/XXXX Prior to that, you acknowledged and agreed to the terms and conditions of the enclosed Consent and Authorization form allowing us to run your credit as part of your application process. you also acknowledged and agreed to the terms of the enclosed Application, which provided your consent to standard credit review language. Your privacy rights were not infringed by Credit Acceptance checking your credit as part of the application process or accurately reporting your account status to the credit bureaus. Your Company 's Consent and Authorization Form you have sent in response of my CFPB Complaint ID XXXX and XXXX Complaint as shown in Exhibit ( A ) DOES NOT include an option to opt out of credit reporting that you must provide according to 15 U.S. Code 6802. 15 U.S Code 6802 -Obligations with respect to disclosures of personal information states " A financial institution may not disclose nonpublic personal information to a nonaffiliated third party unlesssuch financial institution clearly and conspicuously discloses to the consumer, in writing or in electronic form or other form permitted by the regulations prescribed under section 6804 of this title, that such information may be disclosed to such third party ; the consumer is given the opportunity, before the time that such information is initially disclosed, to direct that such information not be disclosed to such third party ; and the consumer is given an explanation of how the consumer can exercise that nondisclosure option ''. You did not give me the option to exercise a nondisclosure option. Your Companys consent and authorization form mentions the Gramm-leach Bliley Act, it talks about you reporting my nonpublic person information, but I am aware that in accordance with the Gramm-leach Bliley Act, I the consumer have the right to know where and how to direct disclosure of my nonpublic information and should have been given a clear and conspicuous explanation of how to exercise that nondisclosure option. I have NEVER received such an explanation. The ( GLB ) Financial Privacy Rule under 16 CFR Part 313 states the regulations require financial institutions to provide particular notices and to comply with certain limitations on disclosure of nonpublic personal information. A financial institution must provide a notice of its privacy policies and practices with respect to both affiliated and nonaffiliated third parties, and allow the consumer to opt out of the disclosure of the consumers nonpublic personal information to a nonaffiliated third party if the disclosure is outside of the exceptions. YOUR OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE PRIVACY RULE, Privacy Notices, The Contents of the Privacy Notice, The Appearance of the Privacy Notice, Safeguarding NPI, Delivering Privacy Notices, Opt-Out Notices, General Obligations Exercising the Opt-Out Right, The Shelf Life of an " Opt-Out '' Direction, Summary Of Notice Requirements Exceptions. I am aware as a XXXX XXXX, you are to make sure your company is in compliance with the law 100 %. Youve also stated in Exhibit A, As of XX/XX/XXXX, we are accurately furnishing your account status to the credit bureaus as 180 days or more past the due date. This information is consistent with your account history and your enclosed payment history, which shows you have not made a payment since XX/XX/XXXX. I recently pulled my credit report on XX/XX/XXXX it shows you are in fact still reporting my nonpublic information inaccurate as shown in Exhibit ( B ). you are reporting 180 days past due to XXXX and not XXXX and XXXX. In the Payment status section of my credit report, you are reporting to XXXX 120 days late, XXXX 120 days late and to XXXX 180 days late. In the date of last payment status section of my credit report you are reporting to XXXX a last payment date of XX/XX/XXXX but in the two-year history section of my credit report you are reporting to XXXX a last payment date of XX/XX/XXXX. In the date of last payment status section of my credit report you are reporting to XXXX a last payment date of XX/XX/XXXX but in the two-year payment history section you are reporting XX/XX/XXXX. Also, to XXXX you are reporting a date of last payment of XX/XX/XXXX but in the two-year payment history section of my credit report you are reporting to XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX But you stated in you CFPB response that my last payment was XX/XX/XXXX. So, when was my last payment exactly? You are also reporting to all 3 credit reporting agencies a different past due balance, XXXX and XXXX {$2200.00} and XXXX {$1800.00}, but in your CFPB Complaint you stated on XX/XX/XXXX that your account is past due {$3100.00}. Nothing of what you are reporting is accurate, nor is it fair and equitable to me. what you are reporting is not consistent with what have stated in your CFPB response by any means. this is a violation of the FCRA 15 U.S Code 1681 ( a ) Accuracy and fairness of credit reporting and 15 U.S Code 1692 ( a ) Abusive Practices. Please provide the written instructions that I, the consumer gave to Credit Acceptance, which has authorized the furnishing of any nonpublic information. If you can not provide me with these instructions written by me prior to this notice, this has been a fraudulently furnished consumer report using my identifying information and Credit Acceptance Corp must update the following late payment to PAID AS AGREED or DELETE to all consumer reporting agencies immediately to protect against further unauthorized access to or my nonpublic personal information. If credit acceptance, can not provide me with proof such a tracking number or a certified mail return receipt proving your company sent me a Welcome Letter on XX/XX/XXXX, providing proof your company adopted reasonable procedures to ensure my periodic statement was delivered to me no later than 21 days before the payment due date, this alleged late payment must be removed. Or I am demanding the following late payment are updated to " PAID AS AGREED of each late payment is summited to the credit reporting agencies immediately to prevent me from receiving more harm because of the fraud that has taken place. Until the requested documentation is received, this request for documentation shall be treated as a BILLING ERROR and an ERRONOUSLY BILLED AMOUNT section 1666 of title 15XXXX Credit acceptance, as the creditor may not collect any dispute amount. As a federally protected consumer, who does not need to pay, the creditor can not restrict, accelerate payment, close an account and or make or threaten any adverse reporting to any person about the consumers credit standing without resolving the billing error. Any information listed on my consumer report must be verified or immediately removed. I am due for a thorough and proper investigation. Please send me any information regarding my request and an updated consumer report showing that the abovementioned demands have been met. As a gentle reminder, this is my final attempt at peaceful mediation. Your failure to comply will result in me pursuing civil for damages action pursuant to 15 U.S Code1692 ( k ) and 15 U.S Code 1640. Also, your failure to comply will result in civil liability Pursuant to 15 U.S Code 1681 ( n ). I am aware, the making of any false, fictitious, or fraudulent statement or representation to a customer of a finical institution such as reporting inaccurate information is a direct violation of 15 U.S Code 6821 ( a ) ( 2 ). I am also aware that whoever violates 15 U.S Code 6821 such a false, fictitious, or fraudulent statement or representation to a customer of a financial institution will be held liable under 15 U.S Code 6823 ( a ) to fines under Title 18 U.S Code 3751 with fines up to {$500000.00} or imprisoned for up to five years or both. Thanking you in advance for your precipitated quick co-operation on this important matter.

This complaint is on the behalf of Credit Acceptance Corp Illegal Auto Repossession where they ignored my notarized affidavit of billing error. They are conducting fraudulent business and they unlawfully repossessed my car on XX/XX/XXXX. I when I mailed out Registered Mail Documentation with signature required return receipt XXXX XXXX. The document hasnt been delivered as of today XXXX XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX a notary republic mailed out a notice to Credit Acceptance Corporation to their Credit Dispute Team. A notarized AFFIDAVIT OF NOTICE OF BILLING ERROR, OPPORTUNITY TO CURE- 12 CFR 1026.13 and 1026.13 ( a ) ( 6 ). For the endorsed remittance ( special deposit instructions ) I sent into the company my payment on XX/XX/XXXX for the amount of {$430.00} and in the billing error notice I also requested documented evidence 12 CFR 1026.13 ( 6 ), which the company received and signed the domestic return receipt for it ( there was a postal investigation conducted because seems that every time I mailed something into the company it never shows up as delivered so I spoke with a supervisor he reassured me their system showed it was delivered to the companies address and that is why I received my domestic return receipt ending XXXX ) *postal rule* and they ignored my notice because my notary republic never received anything on my behalf. I also sent the noticed to the dealership XXXX XXXX XXXX too because Mr. XXXX XXXX is the one who sold the contract to the bank Credit Acceptance Corp. Which I have two inquiries from Credit Acceptance Corp XX/XX/XXXX which I was approved for the XXXX I applied for and one from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX which I didnt authorize and I was already approved for loan on XXXX XXXX. In - AFFIDAVIT OF NOTICE OF BILLING ERROR NOTICE AND REQUEST FOR EVIDENCE -12 CFR 1026.13 -- Billing error resolution ; Requests of additional clarification, including documentary evidence ; I offered them the opportunity to fix the fraudulent acts because XXXX XXXX XXXX never gave me nor disclose 1026.23 RIGHT OF RESCISSION 15 U.S.C 1635 Nor did Credit Acceptance Corporation disclose this option to me nor did they educate me on my options for it. They never spoke to me about TRUTH IN LENDING because if they did I wouldve known right then and there that the finance charge was the sum of all charges and I wouldve never paid a {$4000.00} down payment 7 CFR 1436.10 ( c ) nor would I be responsible to have to pay them monthly because the car was prepaid once they used my social security card. I never knew my rights as the consumer and the original creditor at the time of the deal, both companies took advantage of me. Credit Acceptance Corp sent me documents to sign week after I got the car and drove off the lot they never disclose this information to me during the transaction, Mr. XXXX XXXX had me sign one document at his office and that was it, I never seen or was told about the Truth In Lending Act. I applied and was approved for XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX but he didnt want to sell it to me once he met me at the dealership, and had me leave in a XXXX XXXX XXXX instead XXXX He told me the car wasnt in good condition to drive after we had a long interaction on applying for that XXXX and being approved for it. So why would you tell me to apply for financing? These billing errors may be assumed to be a willfully intent on misleading and or deceiving me of the character/ amount of any debt 15 USC 1692e. I was also made to pay out of pocket {$300.00} for tilting and license and registration when in fact that was suppose to be included in the advertisement price and with the down payment. All debt obligations and securities are owed to the United States 18 U.S.C 8. Do NOT hinder nor delay returning my goods and returning back every payment I made out of pocket monthly : {$200.00} along with the double payments I made plus the taxes, fees and {$4000.00} down payment. Send it back to me in the form of lawful currency. I received a call and a text after sending these letters out from a number ( XXXX ) XXXX, I asked who is this I received a texted that stated Hi- calling about your recent letter to credit Acceptance. Reaching out to discuss your request. Do you have time for a call? I texted back an asked whoever it was to remove me from this call/text list because I never gave permission to be called nor text. I have a XXXX and the messages came from XXXX user. So someone used their personal number to contact me in reference to the letter but in my billing error affidavit I clearly stated to send all correspondence to my notary republic and I never listed my contact as a form of correspondence ; I listed the notary republic address. We never received anything from either company. The affidavit L also stated that they either return me my money ( down payment and ALL payments made out of packet or if the company corrected the fraudulent deal Id release the car BUT only if they abide by the conditions listed in the affidavit which was to restore the fraudulent reports and return all of my money etc I waited for a response and received nothing. To top off the fraud the name of the contract isnt mine ; but yet Credit Acceptance Corp sends my remittance to me in my name monthly they send it to my correct name not the name on the loan. I learned this when I request the loan documents in XX/XX/XXXX it has a name that isnt mine on it. XX/XX/XXXX I send out another Registered mail notarized document to the CFO XXXX XXXX who in fact is the fiduciary, of my XXXX XXXX XXXX. As I was waiting for my registered mail correspondence to reach the company I was doing my homework and learned the laws ; that besides the fact that they didnt disclosed to me the Truth In Lending 15 U.S.C. 1605 ( C ) states that insurance was suppose to be included in the transaction and also learning that no cash was suppose to be involved ; the down payment {$4000.00}. I also learned that the monthly statements they were sending me my remittances in a positive the amount was never negative. I had to remit them and return them back to them special endorsed ; Credit Acceptance Corp is accepting and keeping the endorsed Remittance Transfers but arent applying them to the account nor are they disclosing how they want them endorsed if i am endorsing them wrong. They are embezzling and money laundering. They were having me pay them on the front end ( out of pocket ) and they also collected the funds from the back end from the Treasury. Once they used my Social security number they agreed to the trustee/fiduciary role. As I waited for my mail to deliver to them ( registered mail no. XXXX ) with no warning Credit Acceptance Corp repossessed my car. IRS has the full definition of what a Fiduciary role is and their obligations to the beneficiary ( ME ). XXXX XXXXfiduciary and Credit Acceptance Corp Trustee/ obligor are to do what benefits the beneficiary not steal and commit trust fraud and repossess my paid vehicle from me. I also have a UCC-1 financial filing which is filed with the Secretary of State of XXXX and with XXXX XXXX XXXX too , filing number is XXXX XXXX XXXX & filing number XXXX with a large sum certain amount over this account/vin number ( which I can provide the photos ) Fact, The Truth in Lending Act is intended to inform consumers about the cost of credit. Fact, The Truth in Lending Act is intended to protect consumers against abuse and deceit by creditors and I have been abused and deceived so be it. Fact, Affiant ( ME ) is aware and has proof in attachment labeled as exhibit A that Credit Acceptance Corp and XXXX XXXX of XXXX XXXX XXXX is in violation of 15 USC 1605 ( a ) ( c ). This transaction included a finance charge and the finance charge is suppose to include insurance which protects the creditor against the obligors loss, and or property damage. Credit Acceptance Corp nor XXXX XXXX XXXX did not include my insurance in my finance charge. Fact, Affiant is aware and has proof in attachment labeled as exhibit A that Credit Acceptance Corp and XXXX XXXX of XXXX XXXX XXXX is violation of 15 USC 1605.

I've issued a XXXX to Credit Acceptance on XX/XX/2023, and have been denied my right to see the accounting and general ledgers on all debits, credits etc., but they've avoided showing the books by all cause. They were given multiple opportunities to not only remove the information from my profile in which I did not give them any consent, but to also prove that I owe them anything pursuant to an " alleged loan that they so called gave me according to their representatives. '' They are also committing language fraud by use of certain words when it clearly states in their XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX documents at the top that they " DO NOT COMMIT LANGUAGE FRAUD '' but they do just that. It says that they've signed in their security agreement with the XXXX XXXX under 17 CFR 424, that they will not commit language fraud or solicitation. I've also sent to them registered endorsed dividend bond securities that's owed to me as a silent investor, but yet they've kept them indicating they don't owe me anything. XXXX XXXX can contest these events and is willing to be a witness to more than a couple incidents in this regard. They even went as far as telling me in writing that I don't have any rights and verbally as well. We have some of these phone conversations including them telling me that they couldn't accept anything other than a certified Bank check before stealing my consumer household goods. Prior to stealing my household consumer goods without just compensation, I warned them that they were breaking the consumer laws by ignoring my right to rescind any portion of the alleged XXXX sided agreement that I allegedly gave them consent to do. However, I believe that my information and signature may have been copied and pasted on other documents in order to bind us to these XXXX sided agreements by the dealer in which is unethical and fraudulently, including document forgery. I've also indicated to them that no one from their corporation showed up in person to give me any loan or money. Another thing that I've mentioned to them in the Affidavit regarding the rescission of my signature is that I do not want them to sell my information and to opt me out of that, including opting out of all the rights and interest given to them by trickery and usury and they replied that I don't have that right to do that. If this was done with false and misleading practices, then I have every right to take it back. The federal reserve states that banks and financial institutions can't lend on their own money. However, according to a friend of mine who has their own financial institution that lends to other investors, in which indicated that they pool notes from depositors or investors and lend other people 's money on fractional reserve including using certain IRS forms triple dipping. Their actions are contrary to 12 USC section 1431, XXXX and Duties of banks. The most troubling piece to this by far is that I've found out through a third party that they've made millions from my signature recently and my cosigner signature in the past constantly selling the same contract over and over again without even compensating us for the use of our signatures, because without us putting our signature on that document bringing value to it, then they couldn't make any profit or interests. For this matter, I've invoked the IRS for identity theft and tax evasion and how they are moving the money around that they are stealing from consumers. They used my household goods as a way to extort more money from me other than the note ( aka ) security that they received from me. As before and after taking my consumer household goods. They've used both the so-called contract as an asset including my personal property ( aka ) household goods. This is pure greed, usury slavery/peonage, fraud in the factum, deception, racketeering, theft by stealing our interests and putting it all into a pool with other investors while moving it all into trust for their indenture trustee to manage. Charges shall be brought upon all of these criminals and I'm seeking that all of their businesses and personal bank accounts be frozen until investigation is completed. I will be also sending the most recent affidavits that they've avoided to reply upon what was being requested as evidence, including an affidavit of truth for them to sign under penalty and perjury in good faith but was ignored, which validated and indicates their fraud and deception. I've sent them a notice in regards and now they are in default for failure to respond. Tracking # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Received XX/XX/2023 at XXXX. In regards to the people running Credit Acceptance with the purpose to commit fraud in the factum : to remedy this situation, the only option after violating all of my rights, for identity theft under 5 USC section 522a causing me severe damages, XXXX XXXX XXXX, invasion of privacy, selling private information to third parties without my written consent, with fear of loss of credit opportunities, losing multiple opportunities, completely embarrassing me disturbing the peace when they've stolen my property without just compensation. I'm seeking for them to remove the account from my credit profile. I'm also seeking for the FTC and FBI and IRS to investigate these matters as well for all other consumers. I no longer want to waste anymore time going back and forth with these individuals who are running these fraudulent businesses stealing money and interests from the true creditors. Something has to be done immediately about this because they will continue to violate me and others without any respect to the consumer laws or law in general. They are using Delaware XXXX because they can get away with fraud. Furthermore : I'm demanding that none of their XXXX or XXXX reach me or get involved in these matters because they have no first-hand knowledge of these matters and anything they say is hearsay. My issue is with the people who are hiding behind companies violating my rights by committing fraud in the factum, language fraud, and by deception to get wealthy. If any Attorney/Lawyer continues to help them, then this will only prove that they are aiding these individuals and they are also shall be treated as willful participants as for contributing to these actions. This is due to the fact that they know exactly what these individuals are doing but yet they participate in these illegal and unlawful actions willfully for currency. I refuse to accept anything else including any arguments from any of these people considering the fact that they waved all opportunities to cure these matters and it will only be a stalling tactic as usual. I've never even received an opt-out notice from these individuals, although I've already written to them in writing to opt me out over eight months ago but they refuse to do so. So with that said, I " demanding for the owners, representatives, board members of Credit Acceptance, including the information I've already disputed multiple times with the XXXX XXXX to opt me out : I'm demanding for this company to opt me out under 16 CFR section 313.7 Forms of opt-out notice : ( F ) Continuing right to opt out. A consumer may exercise the right to opt out at any time. Also to remove the disputed accounts from my credit profile immediately. Again, the documents that I've sent to the borrowers at Credit Acceptance, I will be sending the same documents to the CFPB, the Attorney General, the FTC, the FBI, and the SEC, so that charges such as conspiracy against my rights, racketeering, identity theft by misrepresentation of my information and other, extortionate credit transactions, fraud in the factum and more, can be brought up against these people. I urge the FBI and the FTC to freeze both their personal and business assets to investigate this. Furthermore : I have a private company that is doing an audit including accounting as well, so that I remain compliant. I refuse to go back and forth with them because it is a stalling tactic and no one from their company has first hand knowledge of the facts but me. No one stepped up to rebut these statements in good faith under penalty and perjury.

Before I actually get into my complaint letter that I will upload to you I have to say a few extra details about my dealings with this company. First of all they repossessed my car AFTER I had already made an arrangement to pay my car note as I had moved and got a new job. I was forced to pay them XXXX dollars upfront to get my car out of the repossession status and my car note is actually {$520.00} a month. In addition to paying the city of XXXX to locate my car at a local pound as well as actually paying the pound. I missed 2 days of work trying to get my car back because the pound stated that they did not open until after XXXX and then to find out that I had to pay XXXX first to get the car released wait 24 hours and then go back to the pound where my car was with a slip stating I had made said payment. As time went on I made the payments and I did have to make partial payments at time but with all the money I had to pay in that situation alone I always stayed behind. Moving forward to this past evening of XXXX XXXX, XXXX I currently live in XXXXXXXX NC and they sent someone to my home without any notice to repossess my car yet again. I had to sit in my car and explain my rights to an aggressive man trying to take my car and in the end I had to pay him {$100.00} cash for him to put my car down even after showing him I had just made a XXXX dollar payment while sitting in my car. The man stated that he had to talk directly with the company to get a confirmation number even though I had it available to him on my phone in my hand! He also was blocking the driveway off from my neighbors causing more public embarrassment as people where trying to come home or leave for work! He said he would not move his truck until I got out of my car. Meanwhile I called XXXX XXXX 5 times on speaker phone selecting different options for them all to say that they were closed! How can you send someone to repossess a car and require them to call for payment but no one is available to verify? So if I didn't know my rights I would have made a payment and had my car taken on the same night all for me to go through what I did before when my car should not have been up for repossession anyways. My payments have been on autopay at {$150.00} a week since XXXX and now all of a sudden it is not on autopay. Furthermore I looked at the agreement and they made me pay a XXXX dollar down payment and also pay XXXX for a warranty I knew nothing about in addition to the actual cost of my car being {$19000.00} but the finance charge is {$15000.00} at 22.99 % APR!! This is very unfair practices now I will let my letter to XXXX, CFPB and the AG explain how this has affected my life and my family 's life XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX # XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX Credit Acceptance Corporation XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX NOTICE TO AGENT IS NOTICE TO PRINCIPAL AND NOTICE TO PRINCIPAL IS NOTICE TO AGENT RE : ACCOUNT # XXXX ( Credit Acceptance Corporation ) RE : ACCOUNT # XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) Make Of Car : XXXX Model : XXXX XXXX # : XXXX To Whom It May Concern : I recently obtained a copy of my credit report, due to me trying to obtain business capital for my business. I noticed some accounts on my consumer report that should not be there. I demand the below accounts be deleted from my consumer report immediately. The amounts reported are inaccurate and inaccurate to the agreement notice. Also this company has changed payment dates and amounts 3 times over 2 years. In the agreement the warranty that was not signed by me charged me illegally as well as the down payment being illegal and charged a finance charge that is almost equal to the value of the car which WAS at the time of purchase {$19000.00} and the finance charge which also was not disclosed at the time of purchase {$15.00}, XXXX ( 22.99 % APR ). Insurance was not included with this finance charge either I also pay {$360.00} a month for car insurance. They did not disclose to me my rights and I did not sign all of these things that have an electronic signature on them. ACCOUNT # XXXX ( Credit Acceptance Corporation ) ACCOUNT # XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) The reporting of these accounts are violations of 15 USC 1681a, The Fair Credit Reporting Act. [ 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 2 ) ( B ) ] : ( 2 ) Exclusions.- Except as provided in paragraph ( 3 ), the term consumer report does not include- ( B ) any authorization or approval of a specific extension of credit directly or indirectly by the issuer of a credit card or similar device ; So, let me explain.

I am writing in regard to the above- referenced accounts and transactions. This vehicle was purchased at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. I have also been informed from the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) more specifically the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act 15 USC 6802 obligations with respect to disclosures of personal information ( a ) NOTICE REQUIREMENTS Except as otherwise provided in this subchapter, a financial institution may not, directly or through any affiliate, disclose to a nonaffiliated third party any nonpublic personal information, unless such financial institution provides or has provided to the consumer a notice that complies with section 6803 of this title.

In Credit Acceptance 's previous response to my CFPB complaint, they mentioned the late payment information they are furnishing on my consumer report to the consumer reporting agencies was accurate information and they provided transaction history as evidence supporting such accuracy. However I made Credit Acceptance aware that transaction history is insufficient evidence in supporting that the alleged payments reporting as late is accurate information. According to the FCRA 15 U.S.Code 1681a ( 2 ) ( i ) My transactions and experiences with Credit Acceptance are to be excluded from my consumer report. As youll see from the attached consumer reports, Credit Acceptance has inconsistently reported late payment information, which is not congruent across all consumer report ing agencies consistently since XXXX XXXX XXXX. As a result, I can confirm that Credit Acceptance have inaccurately furnished several late payment information to the consumer reporting agencies and that they are in clear violation of the law. According to federal law 15 U.S. Code 1666b As a creditor under federal law ; in order for Credit Acceptance to treat a payment as late they must prove that : The information required under 15 USC 1637 ( b ) was mailed or delivered to me 21 Days before each payment due date. 15 USC 1637 ( b ) is very specific on all required information needed or that must be mailed or delivered to the consumer. Credit Acceptance can not treat any payment as late without complying with this section of the law! Ive requested in good faith under rule 1002 the documents that show proof that the information pursuant to 15 USC 1666b and 1637 ( b ) of this title was mailed out or delivered 21 days before the payment due date. Ive made Credit Acceptance aware that if they can not provide the proof of the mailing or delivery of the information required by 15 usc 1666b and 1637 ( b ) they can not treat or furnish a payment as late and they must delete all late payment information including transactions they have been listed on my consumer report. In addition, when providing such information, the process must be certified by an agent that the information is accurate. I am requesting the Certification of accuracy and the agent/s that were involved in the certification process, that certified that the information is complete and accurate. Furthermore, as a furnisher under the Fair Credit Reporting Act to properly report this information as accurate and verified, Credit Acceptance must have sufficient evidence to support the conclusion that the information was true, and in doing this the conditions required by 15 USC 1666b must be met. Because Credit Acceptance has a duty to and is required to furnish accurate information to the consumer reporting agencies & takes its obligations to report accurately seriously, unless Credit Acceptance submits proof of compliance with section 15 USC 1681a ( 2 ) Ai and 15 USC 1666b & 1637 ( b ), they may not report ANY late payment information to the consumer reporting agencies including but not limited to ; Account Status, payment history, past due Balances. Because Credit Acceptance has a duty to and is required to furnish accurate information to the consumer reporting agencies & takes its obligations to report accurately seriously, if the evidence available to Credit Acceptance is insufficient to establish the truth or falsity of the disputed information, then, under the statutory framework, Credit Acceptance as the furnisher must report that its investigation concluded that the disputed information can not be verified and it may be appropriate to delete any mentions of the missed payments while continuing to report other information about the account. I am demanding Credit Acceptance to delete the late payment information they are furnishing to the Consumer Reporting Agencies from my account. Credit Acceptance has infringed upon my privacy rights by providing my nonpublic personal information to third party companies such as XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. Within their privacy policy, it is mentioned my nonpublic personal information to non affiliates will not be shared. XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX XXXX are all third party companies. Credit Acceptance also mentioned in their previous response that I can not opt out of credit reporting because I financed a vehicle through credit acceptance. I politely request Credit Acceptance to provide such law/evidence supporting such claim. According to federal law, Credit Acceptance is to provide a method for which I can prevent them from disclosing my nonpublic personal information by way of opting out. Pursuant to 12 CFR 1016.7 & 15 U.S. Code 6802 before the time that any of my nonpublic personal information is initially disclosed, specifically to the consumer reporting agencies, to direct that such information not be disclosed to such third party ; and I am given an explanation of how I can exercise my right to opt out. Pursuant to 12 CFR 1016.7 ( g ) a consumer may exercise the right to opt out any time. As a federally protected consumer, I put Credit Acceptance on notice I am now opting out of any and all authorization I the consumer may have given them, written, unwritten, verbal, and nonverbal ( in disclosing my nonpublic personal information ) per 15 U.S.Code 6208. In accordance with 12 CFR 1016.7 ( h ) & ( i ) Credit Acceptance must comply with the consumer direction to opt out as soon as reasonably practicable after receiving such notice and such direction to opt out shall be effective until the consumer revokes it in writing or, if the consumer agrees, electronically. The Following statutes referenced, Credit Acceptance has not fully compiled with. By Credit Acceptance furnishing my transactions and experiences with their company along with attempting to use transactional history as sufficient evidence on my consumer report to the consumer reporting agencies, when it is to be excluded is a violation of the FCRA 15 U.S.Code 1681a ( 2 ) ( i ). By Credit Acceptance failing to proceed in accordance with the requirements for a creditor to treat the payments your furnishing from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX as late and failing to provide the required information and proof of such information being mailed or delivered to me, is a violation of 15 U.S. Code 1666b & 1637 ( b ). By Credit Acceptance furnishing any late payment information to any consumer reporting agency without being in compliance with 15 USC 1666b & 1637 ( b ) is a violation of 15 U.S. Code 1666b & 1637 ( b ). By me the consumer notifying Credit Acceptance about the specified information being inaccurate and them continuing to furnish any late payment information to any consumer reporting agency knowing theyre not in compliance with 15 usc 1666b which means the information is inaccurate is a violation of the FCRA 15 USC 1681s-2. By Credit Acceptance refusing me my right to protect my nonpublic personal information from being disclosed to the consumer reporting agencies is a violation of the Privacy Act of XXXX. By Credit Acceptance refusing me my right to opt out of sharing my nonpublic personal information with the consumer reporting agencies is a violation of 12 CFR 1016.7 & 15 U.S. Code 6802. In conclusion, Credit Acceptance has failed to fully comply with various laws. Credit Acceptance has clear requirements and responsibilities as a Financial Institution, a Creditor, and a Furnisher in accordance with federal law. They have been made aware and put on notice, Credit Acceptance must be held liable for any amount equal to the sum of the cost of action taken to enforce any liability including but not limited to attorney fees and any damages i've occurred due to the result of them continuously willfully and/or negligently failing to comply with any law herein.

I went into XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on Sunday, XX/XX/XXXX. The dealer, XXXX XXXX, is a friend of my sister, so he told her that it would be okay for me to come in outside of the scheduled hours of operation. When I arrived at about XXXX XXXX., he had already had a car pulled out and went to put gas in it. It was the only option that he gave me so I assumed that he and my sister had already discussed my money. He was inside processing information and contracts and looking over information that I had given him. He asked me to come to the computer to electronically sign the forms ; he did not go over any information. I am a first time car buyer as a college student, so I was not sure exactly how things would go. Unfortunately, I did sign the paperwork, but no money was taken. I also never took possession of the car because the dealer said that one of the mirrors had to be fixed. Upon the next day, Monday, XX/XX/XXXX, I had an unexpected event happen regarding school and the money was taken out of my account. I was unable to notify the dealer for the fact that I had class and was not dismissed until XXXX. In addition to that, when I spoke to my father that same night, he had asked me if I ever looked at the XXXX XXXX XXXX price of the car ; I had not because I was not sure of any of that and we did not go over the history of the car. After my father told me to check because it seemed to be a bit much for the specific car, I found out that the XXXX XXXX XXXX maximum price for the car was about {$8000.00}. The next day, XX/XX/XXXX, the dealer called me and said that he was missing my miscellaneous mail confirming my address and money. I did not take the call because I was at work, but I did call when my shift ended and I was on my way to school. I told him of the situation and asked him if he could inform my on the steps that I needed to take to get the financing reversed. He stated that there was nothing that he could do and it was my my car since it had already been financed, He told the same thing to my mother when she called. I, then, took it upon myself to call the financing company, Credit Acceptance, to get more information on the financing of the car. The representative told me that the dealership could indeed cancel/void the finance. My mother and I then called back to speak with the dealer and he said the still insisted that there was nothing we could do. Following this, my mother and I spoke to about three representative that gave us multiple answers. One representative filed a complaint on my behalf and told me that someone would be contacting me within three days. She informed me that it would be wise to send in documentation showing that I had not put any money down for the vehicle and any other information that I wanted them to know. I sent in both my income statement and the XXXX XXXX XXXX price, even one with the color the car. It was over {$1000.00}. I spoke to a representative one again on Thursday, XX/XX/XXXX, and I was told that there was nothing they could do. The car had not been financed without the miscellaneous information to confirm my address and they were aware that I had not put any money down but it was still nothing that they could do. I then asked if he could do anything without my information and the representative told me that there were other steps that he could take. Over the days of Friday, XX/XX/XXXX, and Sunday, XX/XX/XXXX, I had reviewed the contract and Section G of the contract is entitled " Cancellation of this contract '' states, " You may cancel this contract at any time by notifying the Administrator or Lienholder. Your cancellation notice must be accompanied by the then-current Vehicle mileage [ I never took possession of the car ]. If the contract price was financed, any and all refunds will be paid to the Lienholder. '' Section I : Refunds and Charges states, " If the contract is cancelled within the first thirty ( 30 ) days past the Vehicle/Contract Sale Date, You will be entitled to a full refund of the Contract Price. '' Per the definitions at the bottom of the contract ( Section J ) : " Contract '' or " Service Contract '' means this document in its entirety. " Contract Price '' or " Provider Fee '' means the price of the Contract as specified on the first page of the Contract. " Lienholder '' means the financial institution ( if any ) extending the loan/lease amount to the Contract Holder. " Vehicle '' means the Vehicle covered by the Contract, as identified on the first page of the Contract. " Vehicle/Contract Sale Date '' means the date the Vehicle and this Contract was purchased. I do not require a refund because I gave no money whatsoever to the dealer or dealership. My desire to cancel all occurred within the first 48 hours. On today, XX/XX/XXXX, the dealer, XXXX XXXX, contacted me via text while I was at work and stated, " Your car needs to be picked up by tomorrow this deal not gon go away you sign a legal contract. '' I replied, " Sir, this legal contract also states in Section G : Cancellation of the Contract that 'you may cancel this Contract at any time by notifying the Administrator or Lienholder. Your cancellation notice must include the then-current vehicle mileage [ which I never got the car ]. If the Contract Price was financed, any and all refunds will be paid to the Lienholder. ' It also states in Section I : Refunds and Charges that 'If the Contract is cancelled within the first thirty ( 30 ) days past the Vehicle/Contract Sale Date, You will be entitled to a full refund of the Contract Price. ' '' The dealer replied and stated, " Contract only states that u can cancel gap or extended warranty if you don't believe that wait for the repo to hit your credit I tried to be fair on this but it's on you. '' He texted me again and said, '' Read that again cause I'm telling you it's your car I'm try to save the repo from hitting you credit if you wasn't XXXX sister I would even say nothing about I'll just let the repo man pick it up just trying to gave u fair warning. '' My final message to the dealer stated, " I would not say fair. You are aware of the fact that U am a college student. I do not have the money in my account and I said that. If I were aware of the fees, I would not have wasted your time or mine. You also lied to me and said that there was nothing you could do when multiple representatives from Credit Acceptance that the dealership can cancel it. The car was not financed. You, yourself, also put on the contract that I made a down payment of {$2000.00}. My job will be terminated as of XX/XX/XXXX at the moment. So, whether you were being " fair '' or not it would hit my credit. Unfortunately, I am going into the accounting profession and it may affect my career some but it is ultimately my fault. Per the definition in the contract : " Contract '' or " Service Contract '' means this document in its entirety. " Contract Price '' or " Provider Fee '' means the price of the Contract as specified on the first page of the Contract. " Lienholder '' means the financial institution ( if any ) extending the loan/lease amount to the Contract Holder. " Vehicle '' means the Vehicle covered by the Contract, as identified on the first page of the Contract. " Vehicle/Contract Sale Date '' means the date the Vehicle and this Contract was purchased. '' I went on to state, '' Thank you for considering me and trying to help. I will face my reality when I have to deal with it. '' The conversation ended at that message. I have a formal letter typed to Credit Acceptance. I simply want out. I am not sure who is aware of this contract but I have typed everything exactly how it is written. I am able to file or scan in all documents and pictures as needed.

Creditor : Credit Acceptance XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Michigan XXXX Name of Original Seller : XXXX XXXX XXXX I am writing in regard to the above referenced account and transactions. This vehicle was repossessed by Credit Acceptance in the Virginia on XX/XX/XXXX, and resold on or about XX/XX/XXXX. The creditor gave me no absolute chance to gain reinstatement of the Chapter XXXX dismissal or relief of the contract. In the letter there is admittance that the dismissal was XX/XX/XXXX, but they repossessed the vehicle within 22 days on XX/XX/XXXX with no evidence of filing to reinstate. However, on XX/XX/XXXX my attorney contacted XXXX XXXX whom represented Credit Acceptance asking why the vehicle was taken prior to the Motion of Reinstatement. Also, the repo company took my personal items and refused to give them back unless I pay a service fee. I never received my personal items back for the repo-company nor Credit Acceptance. Virginia law clearly states that a creditor may not keep or sell any personal property found inside the vehicle. According to the letter it states that my first delinquency which is not correctly documented was XX/XX/XXXX, so it is very in the obvious falsified document Credit Acceptance is in failure of removing the negative information as of XX/XX/XXXX in accordance with the FCRA. Also, payment was submitted to the company by the bankruptcy trustee, proving the creditor was accepting full or partial payments. This is considered to be implied acceptance and therefore, their actions were unlawful. Some debt buyers try to get around this law by reporting an old debt as newer than it really is. But by lying about the age of the account is or the date of any delinquency, the debt buyer violates the FCRA. I have filed several disputes with Credit Acceptance and the CRA as a willful violation. The definition of willful is the failure of being in compliance with FCRA will allow me to seek actual punitive damages for violations of the FCRA. A willful violation does n't just mean that you have to prove that the CRA or other entity actually knew that it violated your rights. Rather, it is enough to prove that it was acting recklessly -- that is, the CRA or other entity knew or should have known that it was running afoul of the FCRA. Also, the creditor has been reporting this on my credit report several time and the results show the determination to conduct collection activities on zombie debt. I 'm sure you are aware of the provisions in the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). However, I would like to point out that your firm has violated provisions of the FDCPA by implying that the legal status of the debt is collectible by reporting the alleged debt to the credit bureaus. The false representation of : the legal status of the alleged debt and any services rendered or compensation which may be lawfully received by any debt collector for the collection of a debt. reporting an account as active when it was voluntarily closed by a consumer reporting information that is more than seven years old misstating the balance due reporting late payments when you paid time notifying every CRA involved that you dispute the debt The term XXXX XXXX military consumer means a consumer in military service who is on XXXX XXXX ( as defined in section 101 ( d ) ( 1 ) of title 10, United States Code ) or is a XXXX performing duty under a call or order to XXXX XXXX under a provision of law referred to in section 101 ( a ) ( 13 ) of title 10, United States Code ; and is assigned to service away from the usual XXXX XXXX of the consumer. Under the laws of Virginia 6.2-2217. Limited recourse ; repossession and sale of motor vehicle. Reasonable notice of the time and place of the sale is generally required to be given to other secured creditors and the debtor. A creditor must give you at least 10 days notice before selling your property. A creditor also cant delay too long before selling your property. A creditor must sell your property in a reasonable way it was sold to a sponsored private auction ( noted on auctioneer website ) at XXXX of XXXX, XXXX ( Enclosure 3 ). This auction provides registered dealers, brokers, automobile manufacturers, rental agencies, as well as corporate and government fleets with a complete vehicle marketing solution in the XXXX XXXX area and Virginia ; so it was not sold in a reasonable way due to the fact that I was uninformed, unable to attend, or participate in bidding. Credit Acceptance is in violation of the FCRA for the impermissible purpose as a creditor on of checking out my current financial activity. It is evident that this was done deliberately due to the recent reporting of old debts as new or re-aged. This practice has been done numerous times with Credit Acceptance in which it falsely reports new account activity, such as recent payment delinquencies, or it might alter the date of the account, such as changing the date I opened the account, last reported, or last made a payment. This has been a problem because when I had applied for a car loan or mortgage, for instance, the bank may thought that I am currently having trouble paying my bills. Unfortunately, it has become apparent and normal for this subprime lendor to have borrowers pay twice the cost of the car, charging past-due higher interest rate, additional payments over the life of the loan of {$5000.00} to 8,000 from the up to 24 % annual rate. Note : Yet Credit Acceptance makes its loans knowing that a large portion of its customers wont have the happy endings advertised in the promotional materials. The company operates on the assumption that it will collect only about 70 percent of the money it lends outwhich means it will end up repossessing an awful lot of cars and suing those customers for the balance. As XXXX XXXX banks clamored for more securities built on subprime auto debt, Credit Acceptance pumped out ever more paper, boosting loan volume by 23 percent in XX/XX/XXXXand 30 percent in XXXX. ( Growth has been slower in subsequent years due to increased competition, notes the companys XXXX annual report. ) In the meantime, subprime lenders have boosted their average interest rate on used cars from 16 percent to nearly 20 percent annually, guaranteeing that more customers will default and end up with punitive court judgments and garnished wages. In XXXX, jurors found that Credit Acceptance had violated state law ; they awarded XXXX {$1.00} million in compensation and damages, to be split with her lawyers. A Missouri appeals court upheld the verdict. The company used its superior position to misrepresent to XXXX that she owed payments under a void sales contract, Judge XXXX XXXX XXXX wrote, adding that the companys conduct was sufficiently reprehensible to justify the large sum. Last year, Credit Acceptance revealed in shareholder filings that it was under investigation by the Department of Justice and the Federal Trade Commission for questionable practices related to subprime lending. The Fair Credit Reporting Act provides protection against the misuse and misreporting of your credit information. When creditors, collectors, or credit reporting agencies violate the provisions of the FCRA, it can cause a lower credit score, denial of credit, higher interest rates on loans and credit extensions, and more. I have disputed this matter with both the company and the credit reporting agency, but it has not been resolved to my satisfaction. A deficiency can not be claimed unless all of the required notices were properly and timely given, and all of the allowable redemption and cure time limits were adhered to.

Got a used car through Credit Acceptance in XX/XX/XXXX. I knew the interest would be high, due to my credit, however, did n't know exactly how high until after I signed for the loan. ( XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, VA did n't even reveal the name of the creditor until after paperwork was signed, which should have been a big red flag for me, but I was being coerced into getting a vehicle. ) XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX went pretty smoothly. At that time, my elder father XXXX and I decided to relocate to Arizona. I left my job at that time and did n't find work again until I found a temp position in Arizona in late XX/XX/XXXX. I kept explaining my situation to Credit Acceptance, and told them I had money coming from my retirement funds back in Virginia, but they were rude and nasty and would not work with me. Every time I spoke to someone I was asked why I had gotten into this situation and I asked them to read my notes on my account rather than having to tell the same tale again and again. Their response to that ( every day!! ) was that they were looking at my notes, however, I was now talking to Mr./Ms. " so-and-so '' and I had to explain to them what the problem was. Eventually, Credit Acceptance repossessed the vehicle. I received the money I was expecting in XX/XX/XXXX and called to make arrangements to get the vehicle back. I sent Credit Acceptance the money they required and I went and picked the vehicle up. At the end of XX/XX/XXXX I decided that since I was n't finding permanent work I would be moving back to Virginia. After moving back I was out of work until XX/XX/XXXX, however I was able to make a payment of {$450.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. Credit Acceptance again repossessed the vehicle on XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, I called Credit Acceptance to find out how much money I needed to get the vehicle back again. I paid {$680.00} on XX/XX/XXXX, but was told at that time that the auction house that had the vehicle was closed for the XXXX XXXX weekend and I would have to call back on the following Tuesday. On Tuesday, XX/XX/XXXX I called Credit Acceptance back again to get the location of the vehicle so I could pick it up. I was then told that the auction house refused to release the vehicle to me because they were repairing a damaged bumper. I told Credit Acceptance that all of the scratches and damage on the car was there when I bought the car and that the auction had no right to do unauthorized repairs. They informed me that they did not need authorization for the repairs and that I would be paying for the repairs. This cat and mouse game continued for 11 days until the XX/XX/XXXX. After 11 days, Credit Acceptance told me where I could go to pick up the vehicle. They then told me that there was still a balance of over {$900.00} for all of the fees involved in the repossession. They offered to increase my monthly payments to {$460.00} for the next 24 months until I " caught up '' and then my payments would go back to the original payment amount. I accepted and went and picked up the vehicle. They withheld the vehicle from me for 11 full days without giving me a valid reason. They would not tell me where the vehicle was located even though I had paid all the funds they said I had to pay to get the vehicle back. Upon picking the vehicle up at the auction house, I had to wait for over an hour for the auction house to locate the vehicle. When they finally found it, I immediately looked at the bumper to check the " repair '', and there had been no repair, whatsoever. I asked the man at the auction house about this and he said he had no idea what I was talking about. He called the business office and asked someone there and they said they knew nothing about it. He then told me that there had obviously been a miscommunication between me and Credit Acceptance. My own personal belief is that the vehicle was auctioned off immediately upon repossession and it took Credit Acceptance 11 days to clear the matter up and get the vehicle back to the auction house after I had paid to them to get it back. On XX/XX/XXXX I made the first agreed upon payment of {$460.00} ( plus a {$3.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX fee. SEE ATTACHMENT ) On XX/XX/XXXX, I logged into XXXX XXXX XXXX to make my next payment, however, when I tried to select XX/XX/XXXX as my payment date, I received an error message saying that I had to choose a business day 's date. Therefore, I chose, Monday, XX/XX/XXXX. On Tuesday, XX/XX/XXXX, Credit Acceptance called me and informed me that my payment was late and therefore I had broken the agreement I had made for the next 24 months. I told the male rep that my payment was NOT late because I was forced to choose a business day 's date for payment and that XXXX XXXX XXXX would n't accept my choice of XX/XX/XXXX because it was a Sunday. He then informed me that he was doing me a favor of reinstating the agreement and that I needed to relax.He then " fixed the issue '' and I was on par once again. ( SEE ATTACHMENT ) Because of this issue, I made a point of going onto XXXX XXXX XXXX and I believed that I had canceled the payment to come out on the XX/XX/XXXX, and I set up a payment to come out of my bank account on XX/XX/XXXX ( ONE DAY SOONER THAN MY DUE DATE ). ( SEE ATTACHMENT ) Apparently, there was some sort of error where I did n't correctly stop the payment for XX/XX/XXXX. So, a payment came out of checking account on XX/XX/XXXX, which Credit Acceptance received and then another payment came out on XX/XX/XXXX. I immediately called my bank and placed a stop payment because this payment was going to overdraw my account. XX/XX/XXXX Credit Acceptance called me and informed me that I had once again broken my agreement by stopping payment at my bank for a payment that was owed. I explained the situation and told them that I had stopped payment on a SECOND payment for the month of XX/XX/XXXX and that I had sent the payment of {$460.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. They said that is false and that I am now in arrears over {$860.00} for stopping a payment at my bank that was owed. They admit that they see and received the payment on XX/XX/XXXX, but because I stopped a payment at my bank on XX/XX/XXXX, I am in breach of my agreement. They keep bringing up the XX/XX/XXXX issue of my paying on a Sunday and when I explain what happened, they have told me, " Oh yes, Sunday is a business day because we WORK on Sundays. '' Then I have been told to forget about what happened in XX/XX/XXXX, and " let 's get back to the here and now. '' They are so argumentative that I have to try to speak over them in order to say anything at all. They tell me that I need to be quiet and let them " interject '' and then when you try to give input, they tell me that I am NOT listening and I am NOT letting them talk They will not admit that they would have erroneously received TWO payments in XX/XX/XXXX if I had not stopped the second one, nor will they admit that if there had been no second payment set up in error, there would be no issue here. They are harassing me daily and I have have told them that they are lower than low and the XXXX of the XXXX, and I am not in breach of my agreement YET, but they can come and get the vehicle because they have been the rudest, lowest, most common and crooked people I have ever had the misfortune to deal with. I have read hundreds of reviews about Credit Acceptance regarding their crooked ways and how they " ruin lives '' and cheat people out of money. I have reported them to every entity that I can think to report them and I intend to continue to send every entity and media outlet my story regarding my dealings with them.

There was an investigation conducted by XXXX XXXX Legal Consultant in the Credit Acceptance Compliance Department on the information being furnished to the consumer reporting agencies, in which means XXXX XXXX was completely aware of the consistent inaccurate, and discriminating information. Furthermore, XXXX XXXX created the balance amounts ( Referencing to the Current balance amount of {$18000.00} and the Original Balance amount of {$13000.00} being furnished to the consumer reporting agencies ) or XXXX XXXX willfully overlooked such information because their internal system discloses information that has not been disclosed to I, XXXX XXXX the Consumer. Credit Acceptance is in Violation of the Following ; 15 U.S. Code 1681, 15 U.S Code 1681s-2, 15 U.S. Code 1681n, and 15 U.S. Code 1681o.

Attorney General Case # XXXX XXXX Credit Acceptance Corporation Account XXXX XXXX XXXX is of the essence our vehicle was repossessed last Thursday XX/XX/XXXX between the hours of XXXX a.m. XXXX a.m. This is despite me and my husband making official complaints to Credit Acceptance via the CFPB, BBB, Attorney General 's Office etc. It is clear from the payment ledger that the payments are applied to the account incorrectly and the balance has been inflated throughout the payment history without a viable reasoning for doing so. Credit Acceptance advised in a reply through the Attorney General XXXX XXXX XXXX Consumer Affairs that the late fees were forgiven from our account starting when the account first went into XXXX protected status which they noted as being XX/XX/XXXX which is incorrect. The actual date the account retroactively went into XXXX protected status was XXXX XXXX Credit Acceptance advised back in XX/XX/XXXX that they would place our account in XXXX protected status but never did and multiple complaints via phone and a complaint through the XXXX. Credit Acceptance apologized, advising it was an error on their end and corrected the payment history from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX to reflect a XXXX protected status but reported our account as late on our credit reports and did not forgive the late fees as they stated. This has caused our family pain and aggravation. Please help us before Credit Acceptance obtains an unlawful judgement that our balance and payment history is incorrect. This has been challenged for over 3 years and Credit Acceptance has done nothing but continue to not apply payments correctly and hike up our balance. They are currently demanding {$800.00} to release the vehicle from repossession before XX/XX/XXXX or else they advised it will be permanent and they will obtain a judgement to garnish our wages. They have caused my husband to lose out on his wages from not having adequate transportation. It has been over 3 years.Credit Acceptance violated TILA Regulation Z Truth and lending Act by participating in predatory lending alongside auto sales company XXXX XXXX. Credit Acceptance bribed XXXX XXXX to practice deceptive practices in turn for incentives which is against the law and also against my rights. Each violation is subject to both companies having to pay. Me and my husband purchased a vehicle from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. back on XX/XX/XXXX at the time we did not have an understanding of the cost of credit " finance charge '' for the loan. We expressed that the XXXX was a good deal because we would only be paying around {$9900.00} which should've prompted the XXXX to explain the charge of borrowing money since the full cost of credit was not displayed on the window of the car. XXXX XXXX only advertised the cash cost which was {$10000.00}. This was completely deceptive ; we did not know what finance charge meant and were deceived into purchasing a vehicle that XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and Credit Acceptance knew we could not afford. When asked about our jobs I explained to the salesman that I did not have a regularly paying job for 8 months. I was out of work and XXXX happened to be the month that closed my XXXX and only deal making {$4100.00}. The salesman asked me to still provide proof of that check so I did. He took the check and fabricated a lie saying that I make that amount monthly. He also put me down as the co-signer without my knowledge, yes I know there were signatures but it was late in the day and we were being rushed to fill out paperwork and the salesman never explained that I would be signing as the co-signer. My husband advised that he had a per diem job the salesman asked more than once what a per diem job was my husband explained in detail that it's similar to an on-call position so there are no set hours but he works a least XXXX hours a day but the salesman put my husband down as having a monthly income of {$2500.00}. The salesman also knew that we had a bankruptcy a month ago on XX/XX/XXXX and that our XXXX XXXX - XXXX knowledge of money and financing was poor. All of this should have been reg flags to explain verbally what we are getting ourselves into but that was never done instead the salesman was deceitful placing our APR at the highest rate possible and packing on accessories/improvements and XXXX unnecessary warranties that caused the cost of credit to go up. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX received incentives from Credit Acceptance for originating a loan that had a probability of me and my husband not being able to pay it back. Since then Credit Acceptance has acknowledged their wrongdoing in regards to our credit report and agreed not to mark our credit report as late with no end date on the document which means indefinitely. My husband 's credit still has late charges dating back all the way to XXXX and I have late charges for a year straight Right now Credit Acceptance has marked me as late for a from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. Here is a previous complaint with all the numbers. We are paying 22.99 % percent, {$390.00} a month for a used XXXX XXXX XXXX that at the time had XXXX miles. When we brought it at the dealership we remember it saying {$9900.00}. We put down {$1000.00} and we still have to pay {$390.00} for XXXX payments. After reading complaint after complaint regarding Credit Acceptance from its customers as well as seeing that they have been sued by Mississippi and had to pay for their deceptive practices and also with New York Attorney General and CFPB for misleading consumers into loans they could not afford by practicing churning and deceptive loans. We also believe that we were wronged. Our loan is 51 months, and the interest has made the car over {$4600.00} dollars more than the value of the car {$4400.00}. We have already paid {$11000.00} which is more than the cost of the price on the car {$9900.00}. We feel misled putting down {$1000.00} still having to pay {$20000.00} for XXXX payments. And how a car that is {$4400.00} blue book value ended up being financed with a total cost {$21000.00} and We are stuck with this loan for a long time. I always thought this loan was confusing and complex with contracts hidden inside of the contract with a financed charge for each contract XXXX XXXX which is a warranty contract for {$1600.00} with a term of 24 months and WYNNs Gap {$1100.00} for 51 months are XXXX contracts hidden within a contract which makes this a complex contract that can not be understood by the common consumer. It took us years to understand our contract alone and we still dont fully understand it but we know we have been misled. But it seems like my XXXX has barely gone down even though we have paid {$11000.00}, almost 3 times the actual value of the car. I reached out to the New York XXXX XXXX who is currently suing Credit Acceptance Corporation along with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. I have complained several times without a real resolution and fear that Credit Acceptance Corporation will not really investigate our case but just throw out what we are saying just like they have dismissed us in the past. We would like someone else to reevaluate this loan. Credit Acceptance Corporation has destroyed our credit and we are currently unable to get a home for our family because of it.

I filed a complaint with u guys about the improper reporting of information on my credit report by u guys and received a response basically ignoring my most important complaints and saying basically its not ur fault. My complaint was not a matter of my account being mine or not. I never once said I'm disputing this account being mine. It's about all the misinformation in my account so you clearly didn't read my complaint. I asked for u to investigate every piece of info on my account and send a pdf with all the improper info.. Now I'm glad to hear that you've apparently investigated the info you've submitted to the credit bureaus and verified it as correct so I can have more proof of complete disregard to the proper reporting of my report to the bureaus. Please review the attached document that I send with my previous complaint with all the highlighted mis matched information on all bureaus which when I call they say its furnished by you guys and that only u guys can change it. You're literary reporting wrong information XXXX cant believe you even said you updated my account as " 180 days past due '' when it's in collections! An account in collections CAN NOT! be past due! You claimed that I haven't made a payment since XX/XX/XXXX. Which is also wrong according to the information you've reported. I haven't made a payment since XX/XX/XXXX according to my report. You don't even have the proper information! What kind of investigation did u conduct? And since my last payment on XX/XX/XXXX, you reported my account late for 15 months till it was finally charged off, closed, and send to collections in XX/XX/XXXX and was being reported as in collection since XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. Thank you for giving me more proof that you don't even have your information correct and if XX/XX/XXXX is the day I made my last payment which I know for a fact it isn't then you've just given me more proof that you're furnishing wrong information on my report. Either way, you're in violation. How did you do a proper investigation when none of the info on all credit bureaus match? IF u guys did not furnish this improper information, then I need a copy of what the proper information is with proof. you were supposed to investigate all the mis match information reported to all the credit bureaus. The misreported information is Late payment, Payment Status, Worst payment status, account status, times XX/XX/XXXX late, date of last payment, late payments. How did you come to the conclusion that the info on my report is accurate when this information isn't the same on all bureaus? You're the only collection on my report which is not reporting the same info on all three bureaus so dont blame the agencies. I'll list all the violations you guys have made against my account and please explain to me how you haven't done any of them word by word instead of saying your investigation revealed it not to be true. First violation, you went from reporting an account as in collections for three Years since it got put in collections, which Is what you're supposed to do, to then suddenly reporting this account as late payments for 24 months which caused significant financial damage to me and under the FCRA for this improper act I am owed {$1000.00} per violation which is every single month you've reported an account in collection as past due instead totaling {$24000.00} for each month in the 24 months you've misreported it. The only time an account should be reported as past due or late payment, is when an account is open. You are blatantly violating the FCRA. How can you go from reporting my account as in collections to etc days past due? I need a thorough explanation as to why you did that. Which brings me to the second violation, you're reporting this account as open when it is charged off and in collections. Another violation, Under FCRA its a violation for creditors to supply information to a CRA that it knows or ( should know ) is inaccurate. I send a pdf with all the highlighted mis matched information in my last complaint, instead of calling the credit bureaus and fixing these errors, you blatantly ignored it and just informed me that it is not your fault if the bureaus are reporting wrong information when it is your fault as you are the ones furnishing this info to the bureaus but regardless of that, you acknowledged the errors, and failed to act on it by sending proper info to all bureaus and let my report have mis match information which is an extreme violation of my rights under the FCRA and of your duties as a CRA. Word for word in the FCRA. " If, after any reinvestigation under paragraph ( XXXX ) of any information disputed by a consumer, an item of the information is found to be inaccurate or incomplete or can not be verified, the consumer reporting agency shall - promptly delete that item of information from the file of the consumer, modify that item of information, as appropriate, based on the results of the reinvestigation and promptly notify the furnisher of that information that the information has been modified or deleted from the file of the consumer '' You did not even attempted to update the information on my file with the bureaus in which you report you and I send documentation highlighting every mis match information. I'd love to see how you're going to explain that. I asked for a reinvestigation of every piece of info and stated what's incorrect and you did absolutely nothing about it but blame the bureaus when its your job to report the proper info to them and ensure there no improper info on my report because that makes u liable for violating laws under the FCRA of ur duties as furnishers of reports to cra. The fourth violation, under the FCRA, after a consumer files a dispute, you're supposed to stop reporting all information thats been reported as inaccurate by the consumer till the end of your investigation. Which you did not. Again, I send a highlighted document with all the wrong information and you were still allowing the bureaus to report it. Under section 611, I have the right to dispute information I believe to be incorrect or unverifiable and if the disputed information can not be verified or confirmed then it must be removed. As per your response to my complaint, you acknowledged the reporting of inaccurate information and said you can't control what the bureaus report which you can as its your job to do so and if the info is incorrect, its your job to tell them that. A proper investigation by definition under the FCRA was CLEARLY not done and anyone with a brain and eyes and under the court of law would see that if they saw all the misreporting on my credit report. Now since the violations I stated are wrong, please explain to me with verifiable proof how I am wrong and you are right or remove this account immediately and I am requesting financial compensation for every single violation. I will also be filing a report with XXXX, XXXX and XXXX to ask them for verifiable proof of the information you've submitted to them since it's apprently their fault according to you that their is mismatched information which you cared less about contacting them to fix.

On XX/XX/XXXX we went to XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX Va to get a reliable used vehicle for our extended family since I was XXXX. The tire pressure light was on, a weird smell was in the car that we assumed at the time was a new car smell when the car is on u can smell a burnt residue from oil or something under the hood. By Thursday XX/XX/XXXX check engine light comes on. Cars rpm goes close to red which is over 4 by only driving 30 mph. And continuously increases as gas pedal is applied. Ran self diagnosis shift solenoid a stuck on ( permanent ) code p0752. Transmission control system ( malfunction indicator lamp request ) pending. Code p0700. Cylinder 1 misfire detected pending. Code p0301. Dealer takes car back until XX/XX/XXXX. Their resolution was to change spark plugs and coil pack which they denied receiving any solenoid or transmission codes and I have pictures of the codes. So they allegedly replaced the coil pack and plugs did not give a work order when requested. By Tuesday XX/XX/XXXX we got the car back the night of the XX/XX/XXXX because my husband works. Check engine light came back on immediately after driving the car to work 30 miles on the XX/XX/XXXX. Emailed XXXX XXXX XXXX and did a self diagnosis check again. Code p0420 catalyst system efficiency below bank 1 threshold. Current history mil. And code p0989 : transmission fluid pressure sensor switch e circuit low history. Car performance was the same as before. I was scared to have my kids in the car that was supposed to be our relief car. Rpm continues to shoot to red and this time car wo n't drive steadily or efficiently. Dealer determines catalyc converter is the solution and decides to replace it. During this time period I had a XXXX at XXXX XXXX of my XXXX XXXX from a XXXX XXXX. And I had no time to be emotional just to worry about this car. And Again no work order for the to give car is returned to us on XX/XX/XXXX, 16 days later. Upon getting the car back the front right headlight is out. Oil service light was on it was yellow with a wrench warning light instead of the normal red oil warning light. When my husband started the vehicle the front hood was smoking and smelled like burning residue. They offered a complimentary oil change and to replace headlight. On the XX/XX/XXXX my husband and I took the car to XXXX on a weekend marriage retreat so the car was parked the whole time at the hotel. Everything appeared to be running well. By XX/XX/XXXX the check engine light is back on gas light is on tire pressure light still on oil service light so multiple service lights on. Rpm shooting to red again car will not travel more than 45 mph and rpm steadily increases as gas is applied. As of XX/XX/XXXX we had the car a total of 11 days out of 31 days. So on the 12th day the same problem still existed. Took it to our mechanic before calling XXXX XXXX XXXX and he states exhaust problems and transmission solenoid. Called XXXX XXXX to take the car back they refused. I said I would call the finance company which is credit acceptance corp and he calls back immediately telling me they will cancel the extended warranty that is on our vehicle if we call them and nothing will get fixed and since it was past 30 days that they couldnt help. I explained to XXXX from XXXX XXXX we have only had the car for 12 days and he said it didnt matter but scheduled us to come meet him at XXXX XXXX XXXX at XXXX XXXX on the XX/XX/XXXX. He arrived at XXXX and sent us to XXXX XXXX in XXXX va to get the solenoid fixed. They have known it was the solenoid since week 1, but they pay the XXXX dollar deductible since the extended warranty had just kicked in and gave a loaner. Car was ready on XX/XX/XXXX. Requested paperwork from XXXX XXXX and they couldn't give us a work order either I dont understand why but they did inform us when they went to the XXXX dealership to plug up before fixing thr solenoid that the car had prior transmission problems which was not in our XXXX. Took car back Friday evening it was rough coming home and it was hissing. Called XXXX XXXX they sent us back to XXXXXXXX XXXX in XXXX and we deternined the hiss to be low power steering fluid and the roughness of the car was the transmission readjusting since they had to reset the computers. We went home. On XX/XX/XXXX I went to XXXX XXXX for the complimentary oil change we were promised and XXXX was not there XXXX his financial associate sent me to XXXX XXXX which they are affiliated to get it done. They didn't notice a leak or anything to my knowledge on that day. I started to notice oil blotches underneath where we park our car. Wednesday XX/XX/XXXX when my husband was off I decided to check all of the fluids and the oil dipstick was dry. So just 5 days after the oil change I took the car to XXXX to see what was wrong. They give me a paper saying oil leak. Front crank seal oil pan gasket and timing cover needed to be looked into. Idk how that happens in a 5 day period unnoticed but again the dealership works with XXXX they also do all of their inspections. So I call XXXX XXXX and they tell me its covered in my extended warranty and I told them I read that it was not. XXXX still insisted that it was. So I call XXXX XXXX in XXXX and he tells me it is not covered but of common courtesy he would check it out for me and he verified what XXXX had told me about the front crank seal tried to call XXXX XXXX back and XXXX never returned our call. So I made a XXXX review of every problem I have had and am currently going through on XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX calls me telling me that I'm a liar none of this ever happened and that my husband and I are both very bad people and kept on at me. And after everything I have been through within the last month I hung up that is not what I need to hear from anyone. My husbamd contacted the attorney general about this problem on XX/XX/XXXX. And the problems keep arising. Our other car does not run very well so I monitored the oil to take this same car to work didn't make it a mile from my house on Saturday XX/XX/XXXX at XXXXXXXX XXXX and all of the warning lights in the car flashed on and off and beeped 3 times like my car was about to shut down. I turned around took it home and I am scared to drive it. I was planning on fixing the crank seal this week but now I don't know what this new problem is so I have to put the money in my old car just so my husband and I can get to and from work. We are now paying for a car that we can not drive and even if the warranty would be eliminated after calling the credit acceptance corp it makes no difference at this point. It was a holiday weekend so my husband is planning on calling them today and hoping for the best. All we seem to get is bad news.

THEY CONTINUE TO CALL FROM DIFFERENT NUMBERS MULTIPLE TIMES A DAY BREAKING FEDERAL DEBT COLLECTION TACTIC LAWS. THEY REFUSE TO PROVIDE THE REQUESTED INFORMATION WHICH PROVES THEY WORKED IN COLLUSION WITH THE DEALERSHIP TO VIOLATE NUMEROUS FEDERAL AND STATE LENDING LAWS. ON XX/XX/XXXX, I RECEIVED A SLOT MACHINE THEMED PULL-TAB MAILER FROM XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX AT XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, MI XXXX.

WHEN I SPOKE WITH XXXX, I WAS VERY CLEAR THAT THIS WAS MY VERY FIRST VEHICLE LOAN, MY CREDIT SCORE WAS LOW DUE TO LACK OF CREDIT HISTORY, THAT I WOULD ONLY CONSIDER PURCHASING A TRUCK OR SUV. BUT PREFERRED A TRUCK. XXXX PROMISED ME THAT THIS DEALERSHIP COULD HELP WITH MY NEEDS AND GET ME INTO A GREAT VEHICLE. I WAS ALSO VERY CANDID WITH XXXX ABOUT MY BEING XXXX.

BUT I DO HAVE PHONE RECORDS SHOWING THE MULTIPLE CALLS AND SHOWING THAT MESSAGES WERE SENT AND RECEIVED FROM HER ). XXXX STATED THAT I HAD TO COME INTO THE DEALERSHIP WITH MY MAILER TO ENTER MY MAILER CODE INTO THEIR LAPTOP TO SEE EXACTLY WHAT I HAD WON. SHE ALSO STATED THAT THEY NEEDED TO RUN A CREDIT CHECK TO SEE WHAT TYPE OF FINANCING THEY COULD GET ME. ON XX/XX/XXXX, I PROVIDED XXXX WITH MY NAME, SSN, AND INCOME VIA PAY SLIPS. SHE CAME TO PICK ME UP ON XXXX FOR AN APPOINTMENT AT THE DEALERSHIP. IT TURNED OUT THAT I HAD NOT WON THE " XXXX PRIZE ''. BUT INSTEAD, I HAD " WON '' {$2000.00} OFF OF THE PURCHASE OF A VEHICLE.

THERE ARE NUMEROUS ILLEGAL STATEMENTS IN THE LOAN CONTRACT FROM CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORP. INCLUDING STATEMENTS ABOUT ARBITRATION, AND EXCELLERATED PAYMENTS SHOULD I DEFAULT ON THE LOAN.

IN LOOKING AT EDMONDS.COM AND KELLYBLUEBOOK.COM, THE VEHICLE IS WORTH BETWEEN {$2300.00} AND {$5700.00} WITH THE MILAGE ON IT. THE DEALERSHIP ALSO PERFORMED IDENTITY FRAUD BY NUMEROUS ADDITIONAL FALSE LOAN APPLICATIONS ON THE DATES OF XX/XX/XXXX AND XX/XX/XXXX. MANY FOR OTHER VEHICLES I NEVER SAW, HEARD ANYTHING ABOUT, OR WAS AWARE OF IN ANY WAY. THE ONLY VEHICLE I WAS SHOWN, KNEW ABOUT OR AUTHORIZED ANY LOAN APPLICATION BE APPLIED FOR WAS THE TRUCK I PURCHASED. MANY OF THOSE HAD REBUTTLE TERMS SENT BACK BY THE LENDERS WHO DENIED THE TERMS INITIALLY REQUESTED IN THE FALSE LOAN APPLICATIONS SUBMITTED BY THE DEALERSHIP.

Me ( XXXX XXXX ) and my husband are victims of predatory lending. We financed our XXXX XXXX XXXX back on XX/XX/XXXX through Credit Acceptance a month after our bankruptcy was discharged. Both the dealership XXXX XXXX XXXX and Credit Acceptance were aware of the bankruptcy because we told them plus it was on our credit reports. The price of the vehicle, and Credit Acceptance expert knowledge of knowing statically we would not be able to pay the loan back and loan terms are grounds for predatory lending plus the odometer disclosure is not filled out which is a federal crime this is a fraudulent contract. The cost of the loan totaled {$21000.00} even though the sales ticket priced advertised XXXX XXXX XXXX was {$9900.00} which is {$11000.00} more than what we thought we were buying the car for. Credit Acceptance pulled both me and my husband 's credit one month after we filed for bankruptcy. My husband at the time was working per diem meaning whenever his job needed him with no set hours XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX which is deceptive, both me and my husband explained this to XXXX XXXX XXXX. The way this contract is written and for Credit Acceptance to accept and approve this loan is faulty practices. It is my belief that credit acceptance approves loans that they know consumers will default on in an effort to reprocesses and profit off of a resale. At the time of the contract we trusted the car dealership agent as well as Credit Acceptance as experts in their realm of practice. I will say this again, Credit Acceptance knew that my husband 's job status was per diem ( no guaranteed hours at his place of employment at the time of purchase XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Our bankruptcy was discharged XXXX XX/XX/XXXX a month before the purchase date. Which was strategically done because we went to the car dealership XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX weeks after the bankruptcy with both Credit Acceptance and XXXX XXXX XXXX knowing we had a bankruptcy 2 weeks prior and they gave us the car to drive home that day and asked us to come back 2 weeks later on XX/XX/XXXX without explaining why. Today we understand that we were victims of deceptive, abusive practices and suffer from predatory lending. Credit Acceptance provided an over priced loan, Sticker Price on XXXX was {$9900.00} which motivated us to buy not knowing of all the hidden fees from Credit Acceptance. Predatory lending practices, broadly defined, are the fraudulent, deceptive, and unfair tactics used to dupe us into a car loan that we can't afford. Burdened with high car debt, we are straining just to keep up the monthly payments and Credit Acceptance is unwillingly to forgive debt even though they are experts in the lending industry and knew statistically that we would not be able to make off our car loan. This is unfair and deceptive marketing practices, and we deserve restitution as customers. This is a violation of our rights 15 us code 45c states ( b ) Enforcement by the Federal Trade Commission ( 1 ) Unfair or deceptive acts or practices A violation of subsection ( a ) shall be treated as a violation of a rule defining an unfair or a deceptive act or practice under section 18 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( B ) of the Federal Trade Commission Act ( 15 U.S.C. 57a ( a ) ( 1 ) ( B ) ). The Odometer Disclosure Statement is not filled out although in Credit Acceptance last response via CFPB they stated that everything was completely filled out. At the time we just came out of a bankruptcy and did not read through the contract putting full confidence in what we thought were company 's with ethical practices especially since we did not understand the contract the same way that the Car Dealership and Credit Acceptance does. I was accepted as a co-signer even though both me and my husband just went through a bankruptcy and my husband made way more than me that year XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. Furthermore Credit Acceptance did not place me and my husband in their Covid Protection Program and kept us struggling to pay the car throughout the pandemic from XXXX to XXXX for me and my husband 's credit is still not covid protected. This has made it hard for me to establish any type of residency since we struggled to make payments each month and were unable to establish any type of housing because of bad payment history. I got behind on all of my other bills trying to keep up with Credit Acceptance payments for a loan that should have never been originated in the first place. Credit Acceptance finally placed me in their Covid protection program but still reported to credit agencies that that the history reported was accurate per XXXX response on XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX stated that they reached out to credit acceptance who advised that the past due history was correct and accurate even though Credit Acceptance told me in a response from the CFPB that they inadvertently removed my account from their covid protected status. I noticed that the three credit agencies were still reporting a negative payment history long after Credit Acceptance agreed to fix the 2 year discrepancy. I disputed with the three credit agencies and Credit Acceptance. Credit Acceptance responded that " Unfortunately they can not control when the credit bureaus will process and report our updates '' ( The document with this response is provided ) XXXX responded to my dispute stating that they reached out to Credit Acceptance who advised them that the account is to remain as is that was back on XX/XX/XXXX per the CFPB investigation number XXXX. I had to provide follow up with another dispute with XXXX and provide evidence of credit acceptance stating that they will put me in the covid protected status in order to get my credit report payment history updated to a protected status. Credit Acceptance has been completely deceptive to me and my husband with my husband payment history still not covid protected. Credit Acceptance needs to be shutdown for deceiving it's consumers.

Updated and new information in relation to CFPB Complaint XXXX response letter attached to this complaint. Credit Acceptance stated in response : Your privacy rights were not infringed by Credit Acceptance reporting your account status to the credit bureaus and you can not opt out of credit reporting when you finance a vehicle through Credit Acceptance. My initial complaint stated that Did I give you written instructions to furnish this on my credit report? Furthermore, the FIAR CREDIT REPORTINGACT 15 USC 1681 ( 2 ) ( a ) ( i ) Exclusions from a consumer credit report clearly states : ( 2 ) EXCLUSIONS Except as provided in paragraph ( 3 ), the term consumer report does not include ( A ) Subject to section 1681is-3 of this title any ( i ) report containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report. Delete the late payments from my consumer report this agency is in violation of 15 USC 1681 : I would like resolution on this I would like my late payments reversed in accordance with the law that I stated. Also 15 U.S. Code 6802 - Obligations with respect to disclosures of personal information states : Except as otherwise provided in this subchapter, a financial institution may not, directly or through any affiliate, disclose to a nonaffiliated third party any nonpublic personal information, unless such financial institution provides or has provided to the consumer a notice that complies with section 6803 of this title. ( b ) Opt out ( 1 ) In general A financial institution may not disclose nonpublic personal information to a nonaffiliated third party unless ( A ) such financial institution clearly and conspicuously discloses to the consumer, in writing or in electronic form or other form permitted by the regulations prescribed under section 6804 of this title, that such information may be disclosed to such third party ; ( B ) the consumer is given the opportunity, before the time that such information is initially disclosed, to direct that such information not be disclosed to such third party ; and ( C ) the consumer is given an explanation of how the consumer can exercise that nondisclosure option.

I have been told in a response to me sent via the CFPB portal that I can not OPT OUT option with Credit Acceptance. 15 U.S. Code 1666b - Timing of payments : States ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. ( b ) Grace period If an open end consumer credit plan provides a time period within which an obligor may repay any portion of the credit extended without incurring an additional finance charge, such additional finance charge may not be imposed with respect to such portion of the credit extended for the billing cycle of which such period is a part, unless a statement which includes the amount upon which the finance charge for the period is based was mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the date specified in the statement by which payment must be made in order to avoid imposition of that finance charge. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act States : Opt-Out Notices General Obligations If you share their NPI with nonaffiliated third parties outside of three exceptions ( see " Exceptions '' ), you must give your consumers and customers an " opt-out notice '' that clearly and conspicuously describes their right to opt out of the information being shared.

Acceptable " reasonable means '' to opt out include a toll-free telephone number or a detachable form with a check-off box and mailing information. Requiring the consumer or customer to write a letter as the only option is not a " reasonable means '' to opt out. Note : While the GLB Act does not require you to provide an opt-out notice if you only disclose NPI to affiliates, if you share certain information with your affiliates, you may have an obligation to provide an opt-out notice under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. That opt-out notice must be included in your GLB privacy notice ( see " Fair Credit Reporting Act '' ). The response stated that no law was violated under the FCRA, FTC, GLB Act.

1. CREDITACPT Account Number:XXXX Please correct this inaccurate information on my credit report. I recently pulled my credit report from your Bureau and my attorneys and I had a chance to go over my credit report and in amazement, that you have decided to report me 30 days late on this account in XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and 60 days late in XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and 90 days late in XX/XX/XXXX as well as 120 days late in XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. I immediately disputed this information with CREDITACPT and the results of the investigation came back " verified ''. Not only was I never late on this account, but according to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), the information furnisher is required to notify me of the insertion of negative listings. Since I have disputed the lates with the creditor, and you obviously " verified '' them, I am very curious as to what kinds of " records '' you may have for this alleged account. I am very confident that you are in violation of the ( FCRA ) and ( FCBA ) sections ( 1666, 1666a. 1666b., and 1666c. ) as stated below : 1666. Correction of billing errors ( b ) Billing error ( 4 ) The creditor 's failure to reflect properly on a statement, a payment made by the obligor or a credit issued to the obligor. ( 5 ) A computation error or similar error of an accounting nature of the creditor on a statement. ( 6 ) Failure to transmit the statement required under section 1637 ( b ) of this title to the last address of the obligor which has been disclosed to the creditor, unless that address was furnished less than twenty days before the end of the billing cycle for which the statement is required. ( 7 ) Any other error described in regulations of the Bureau. 1666a. Regulation of credit reports ( a ) Reports by creditor on obligor 's failure to pay amount regarded as billing error After receiving a notice from an obligor as provided in section 1666 ( a ) of this title, a creditor or his agent may not directly or indirectly threaten to report to any person adversely on the obligor 's credit rating or credit standing because of the obligor 's failure to pay the amount indicated by the obligor under section 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) of this title, and such amount may not be reported as delinquent to any third party until the creditor has met the requirements of section 1666 of this title and has allowed the obligor the same number of days ( not less than ten ) thereafter to make payment as is provided under the credit agreement with the obligor for the payment of undisputed amounts. ( b ) Reports by creditor on delinquent amounts in dispute ; notification of obligor of parties notified of delinquency If a creditor receives a further written notice from an obligor that an amount is still in dispute within the time allowed for payment under subsection ( a ) of this section, a creditor may not report to any third party that the amount of the obligor is delinquent because the obligor has failed to pay an amount which he has indicated under section 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) of this title, unless the creditor also reports that the amount is in dispute and, at the same time, notifies the obligor of the name and address of each party to whom the creditor is reporting information concerning the delinquency. ( c ) Reports by creditor of subsequent resolution of delinquent amounts A creditor shall report any subsequent resolution of any delinquencies reported pursuant to subsection ( b ) to the parties to whom such delinquencies were initially reported. 1666b. Timing of payments ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. Because I take my credit very seriously, I contacted every name and account that was listed on the report. I was again very shocked by the multiple names, account numbers and figures. Included with this letter, is every letter written to those who have hampered my ability to obtain credit. I believe that any judge that looks over the report would agree that it is a violation of both the FCRA, CCPA and FACTA. The following accounts were listed on your report and I have demanded from them a full accounting and five years worth of records to see if their accounts were in violation of the FAIR CREDIT BILLING ACT ( FCBA ). We also demanded signed contracts, agreements or any legal paperwork that would tie us to the following accounts. Under the FCRA, you are required to conduct an investigation on this account if I request it. I DEMAND to see all 100 % verifiable proof that I was indeed Verifiably late on these accounts and the creditor fulfilled its obligations under ( FCBA 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) ), As I was never notified of a billing delinquency on my accounts, which the creditor must do under section ( FCBA1666 ( b ) ( 6 ). I DEMAND to see proof that I was mailed my statement to the correct address notifying me of both payment due date and delinquency of payment on the account. If you can not provide 100 % Verifiable proof and proper documentation that the CREDITOR fulfilled its obligations under the ( FCBA ) and ( FCRA ), I therefore demand these late payments be removed from my account or I will be forced to be in contact with the Attorney General of my State and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. I therefore am submitting my written request to you to conduct an investigation. Per the FCRA, you have 30 days to conduct this investigation and respond to my request. If you do not respond within this time period, per the FCRA, you must remove this negative information. Thank you for your time, XXXX XXXX SS # : XXXX Date of Birth : XX/XX/XXXX BCC : Consumer Financial Protection Bureau XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Iowa XXXX

Since I have disputed the lates with the creditor, and you obviously " verified '' them, I am very curious as to what kinds of " records '' you may have for this alleged account. I am very confident that you are in violation of the ( FCRA ) and ( FCBA ) sections ( 1666, 1666a. 1666b., and 1666c. ) as stated below : 1666. Correction of billing errors ( b ) Billing error ( 4 ) The creditor 's failure to reflect properly on a statement, a payment made by the obligor or a credit issued to the obligor. ( 5 ) A computation error or similar error of an accounting nature of the creditor on a statement. ( 6 ) Failure to transmit the statement required under section 1637 ( b ) of this title to the last address of the obligor which has been disclosed to the creditor, unless that address was furnished less than twenty days before the end of the billing cycle for which the statement is required. ( 7 ) Any other error described in regulations of the Bureau. 1666a. Regulation of credit reports ( a ) Reports by creditor on obligor 's failure to pay amount regarded as billing error After receiving a notice from an obligor as provided in section 1666 ( a ) of this title, a creditor or his agent may not directly or indirectly threaten to report to any person adversely on the obligor 's credit rating or credit standing because of the obligor 's failure to pay the amount indicated by the obligor under section 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) of this title, and such amount may not be reported as delinquent to any third party until the creditor has met the requirements of section 1666 of this title and has allowed the obligor the same number of days ( not less than ten ) thereafter to make payment as is provided under the credit agreement with the obligor for the payment of undisputed amounts. ( b ) Reports by creditor on delinquent amounts in dispute ; notification of obligor of parties notified of delinquency If a creditor receives a further written notice from an obligor that an amount is still in dispute within the time allowed for payment under subsection ( a ) of this section, a creditor may not report to any third party that the amount of the obligor is delinquent because the obligor has failed to pay an amount which he has indicated under section 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) of this title, unless the creditor also reports that the amount is in dispute and, at the same time, notifies the obligor of the name and address of each party to whom the creditor is reporting information concerning the delinquency. ( c ) Reports by creditor of subsequent resolution of delinquent amounts A creditor shall report any subsequent resolution of any delinquencies reported pursuant to subsection ( b ) to the parties to whom such delinquencies were initially reported. 1666b. Timing of payments ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. Because I take my credit very seriously, I contacted every name and account that was listed on the report. I was again very shocked by the multiple names, account numbers and figures. Included with this letter, is every letter written to those who have hampered my ability to obtain credit. I believe that any judge that looks over the report would agree that it is a violation of both the FCRA, CCPA and FACTA. The following accounts were listed on your report and I have demanded from them a full accounting and five years worth of records to see if their accounts were in violation of the FAIR CREDIT BILLING ACT ( FCBA ). We also demanded signed contracts, agreements or any legal paperwork that would tie us to the following accounts. Under the FCRA, you are required to conduct an investigation on this account if I request it. I DEMAND to see all 100 % verifiable proof that I was indeed Verifiably late on these accounts and the creditor fulfilled its obligations under ( FCBA 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) ), As I was never notified of a billing delinquency on my accounts, which the creditor must do under section ( FCBA1666 ( b ) ( 6 ). I DEMAND to see proof that I was mailed my statement to the correct address notifying me of both payment due date and delinquency of payment on the account. If you can not provide 100 % Verifiable proof and proper documentation that the CREDITOR fulfilled its obligations under the ( FCBA ) and ( FCRA ), I therefore demand these late payments be removed from my account or I will be forced to be in contact with the Attorney General of my State and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. I therefore am submitting my written request to you to conduct an investigation. Per the FCRA, you have 30 days to conduct this investigation and respond to my request.

Credit acceptance started financing my XXXX XXXX XXXX from XXXX of XXXX at 22 % APR and XXXX $ monthly payment. I have comprehensive insurance coverage on this car with a deductible. On XX/XX/XXXX, I was involved in a hit and run accident. My car was totaled. To XXXX XXXX glory I am alive even though I have taking medical treatment. By XX/XX/XXXX, Credit Acceptance received a check of {$16000.00} from the insurance, bringing the balance I owe on the car down to {$5700.00}. This balance they are required by NY State Personal Property Laws and Insurance Law to collect as Gap Credit for. They confirmed that I can Gap Insurance but refused to apply the gap insurance to the balance. Until recently, it was showing that I am owing $ XXXX on a vehicle I no longer have, they received money from insurance, and they even validated the balance ( of {$23000.00} ) as correct after I disputed the balance with the three credit bureau to be wrong. I mailed with the dispute police accident report, evidence of insurance payment and a copy of payment history ( up until the insurance payment ) indicating the payments were made to THEM CREDIT ACCEPTANCE!!!!!! Yet they lied blatantly that I still owed $ 23,000+ to the three credit bureaus. I can't get better credit ; I can't get new car! The ugliest part is that I have spoken with the supervisors severally, and they lied to me on record, that yes, they have reported to the credit bureaus the payment has been made!!! How dare them lie blatantly! The credit bureaus because they collect money from the creditors refuses to delete the balance even when there are bunch of hardcore verifiable evidences showing the payments were made. The credit bureau collects money from the creditors ( Credit Acceptance ) and accept any report they make on any of their customers even when there are overwhelming evidences indicating that their report is false. When you dispute it, they ( the credit bureaus- the cops ) ask the thief ( credit acceptance ) to update the report correctly ( return the money they stole ) instead of investigating the documents ( the video evidence showing the thief steal the money ) you sent them. The hardcore evidence is right in their face, but they refuse to amend my credit file to reflect the truth because lining up their pocket is more important than the truth!!!! After the first dispute I made with the three credit bureaus- XXXX , XXXX and XXXX , Credit Acceptance lied that the $ 23,000+ balance is correct. I disputed the account and the balance a second time with the insurance payment letter. The three credits bureau brought down the balance to {$3200.00}. I continued to call Credit Acceptance to please updated my credit report to reflect the fact that they received the insurance payment, and that they applied the New York State Gap Insurance which covers whatever my auto insurance company does not cover. They refused. I then went ahead to XXXX and XXXX to make a complaint. Few days after the complaints, a lady who skeptically says she represents credit acceptance left me a voice message with her number. To my utmost surprise, this is the first time I ever received a call from credit acceptance since this who issue started from XX/XX/XXXX of XXXX. I called the lady and she continued to spew lies and lies and deception until the call was over. In retaliation for the complaints made on the XXXX and XXXX platform, credit acceptance began making random adverse, derogatory and negative reports on my credit file with the credit bureaus. My credit score went from XXXX in XXXX to XXXX as today in less than few days ; and XXXX to XXXX in XXXX. They reported that I am owing them $ 7,000+ to XXXX and that I am 60 day late in payment from the thin blue air. I was utterly surprised when I saw that few days ago, they reported to XXXX that I am 30 day late in payment and that the balance is $ 7,000+ two days later, they updated it that I am 90 days late and {$3000.00} in balance. By tomorrow or next, they will dump the whole negative data on my experian in which I currently have XXXX credit score just to mess it up and to destroy me. On top of the pain I am going through from the accident, these heartless destiny destroyers are chasing after me, causing me unimaginable frustration and XXXX. I have barked, begged, yelled, caused to get this resolved to no avail. All these prove a deliberate, demonic and heartless series of actions by Credit Acceptance to frustrate my life and damage my credit file/life. For a perspective, log on to XXXX website and bbb.org. You will see XXXX if not XXXX of heart-wrenching complaints from average American consumers complaining about the same, worse or similar case like mine. No one is holding them accountable and it is bolstering them to continue. I don't have any derogatory data on my credit file except for what credit acceptance is dumping in it. How can I be 90 day late when I had an accident on the XXXX of XX/XX/XXXX and they received {$16000.00} from the insurance company, + the supposed NY Gap Insurance? Their staff and reps are trained to manipulate words, and phrase even legal phrases to lie successfully. So, watchout for a strange term they might coin out in reply. References for Insurance Law, NY Gap Insurance Law, NY Personal Property Law : Insurance Law 1113 ( a ) ( 26 ) New York Personal Property Law 302A ( 2 ) ( McKinney 2006 ) PLEASE AVOID CREDIT ACCEPTANCE. THEY ARE DESTROYERS. ONCE YOU ARE IN, GETTING OUT IS A BIG PROBLEM BECAUSE THEY WON'T WANT YOU TO DO SO. THEY EXPECT YOUR CREDIT TO BE EVER BAD SO YOU CAN BE STUCK WITH THEM AND THEIR RIDICULOUSLY HIGHER INTEREST RATE. ONCE YOU IMPROVE YOUR CREDIT OR WANT TO CHANGE YOUR LENDER, THEY MUST FIND ONE THING OR THE OTHER TO HOLD YOU DOWN AND EVEN USE THIRD PARTIES TO DESTROY YOU. JUST LIKE THEY DID TO ME, MY CREDIT SCORE WENT FROM XXXX TO XXXX IN LESS IN ONE WEEK. THEY KEPT ON REPORTING CONTRADICTING DATA TO MY CREDIT FILE IN DAYS APART JUST TO MAKE SURE MY CREDIT REPUTATION IS DAMAGED. STAY AWAY FROM THEM, YOU ARE WARNED!!!

On XX/XX/XXXX I and an associate purchased a car from the XXXX XXXX ( aka XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for a sales price of {$27000.00}. With the understanding that the vehicle in question only had one recall on it. I signed using my initials. I was a little concerned about the price but since it was a gift for my fiance, I decided that I would fit the bill since she had specifically chosen this same vehicle a day earlier. The following day I noticed that several notifications on the dash kept flashing and I grew inquisitive because that car was supposed to be in top condition according to the salesman ( XXXX ). I called and asked if I could bring the car back so that the lights could be extinguished and I was given a date for that following Wednesday morning. The auto mechanic told me that the light was most likely a sensor and that it should turn off by itself after a few minutes. This never happened and then other notifications such as passenger side airbag was lighting up, the brake light as well. I took the car back again and he told me that it was a sensor and he replaced a fuse on my driver arm rest because my front side driver window had stopped working. I began to noticed that things were going wrong on a consistent basis and I took the car back about a month later for another problem and the mechanic told me that he couldnt touch the car after thirty days ( this also wasnt written in the contract ). He referred me to use the warranty that I had been given and take it to the XXXX dealership. I was going to see a client and went to park when I noticed that the car was slightly in the lane of traffic. I attempted to park it correctly and the car wouldnt start. I called a mechanic who came out to my location and informed me that most likely there was something wrong with the cable wire and that it had burned to the ground. The next day when I was able to acquire a tow truck and get it to the XXXX facility located at XXXX XXXX & XXXX XXXX in XXXX, they informed me that this was the case. I was told that they could fix this problem but that there were three recalls on this model and there was one of them that they had no idea how to fix as of yet. I kept making my payments on time and the car kept clanging and making strange noises. I then took the car to a mechanic that I knew and discovered that a pink rag had been stuck in the engine in place of a secured cap. When I questioned the dealership, they told me that this was something that I should discuss with the dealership where I bought the vehicle. The car then began cutting off in the middle of traffic. Because of my XXXX XXXX I was forced to try and maintain the vehicle the best that I could. On the advice of another dealer who is familiar with the retail value of several automobiles, I checked the XXXX XXXX XXXX value for the car and found out that it was under XXXX, yet they had it listed for & XXXX. So, when I gave them {$2100.00} up front, I figured that it would be go towards the down payment and bring the payments down. Instead they charged me a total of {$27000.00} for a car that was only worth {$9000.00}. The fact that they didnt inform me about the three recalls before I signed the contract constitutes fraud with malicious intent. This is so because a few times I have had my grandchildren in the car, and I had to preform evasive maneuvers in order to avoid accidents. I reached out to the dealership and the finance company that agreed to the loan, and told them to come their piece of junk. It was only because I mentioned that I was contacting the Attorney Generals Office of New York, that they agreed to come and pick up the car. As I looked over the contract, I saw that my down payment was written off as cost of an Optional Warranty, this a procedure that all auto resellers provide for free so why was I being charged for it, obviously because they put that money in their own pockets. Also, after having had two accidents due to the car cutting off and rolling back down on an incline, that I became frustrated to the point where I was scared for my life and those of my family members. The level of harassment by this company is unprecedented because two weeks, ago I hear a knock at my door at XXXX, and being that I am caring for an elderly parent with XXXX, I have to scrutinized every and all visitors, for her safety as well as mine. When I asked who it is?, an individual states that he has a delivery, when i opened the door there is no package and he's asking for my name. but then I ask where " is the package? '' and when he couldn't explain why he is lying in my face, I directed him to leave. He then tries to slip a paper in my hand, which I throw right back in his chest. He leaves and calls the police stating that I punched him in the face, and I am arrested, when I return from parking my wife 's car even though, I had XXXX witnesses present when this incident occurred. I later learn from my neighbor that he even had the police go to my neighbor 's apartments, trying to get them to state that i was a violent individual. Obviously, this is a direct example of retailiation by XXXX XXXX, because the process server was hired by them, and they are now finacially liable to me and all other residents of the XXXX of New York. I then discovered that in XXXX, of this year, the Attorney General of the State of New York, filed a lawsuit asking that this company be required to pay {$1.00} XXXX dollars a day, because of falsely misleading low economic families in New York State. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX New York XXXX number XXXX Initial filing date XX/XX/XXXX Status Pending Litigation ) I am asking for your intervention in this matter because too many hardworking individuals are being duped by crooked dealers like these who prey on the unsuspecting victims and ruin their credit and jeopardize their lives and now they are trying to falsely incarcerated people and someone has to stand up against them. I am looking for a good attorney any help will be greatly appreciated.

I recently pulled my credit report from your Bureau and my attorneys and I had a chance to go over my credit report and in amazement, that you have decided to report me 30 days late on this account in XX/XX/XXXX. I immediately disputed this information with Credit Acceptance Finance Company and the results of the investigation came back " verified ''. Not only was I never late on this account, but according to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), the information furnisher is required to notify me of the insertion of negative listings. Since I have disputed the lates with the creditor, and you obviously " verified '' them, I am very curious as to what kinds of " records '' you may have for this alleged account. I am very confident that you are in violation of the ( FCRA ) and ( FCBA ) sections ( 1666, 1666a. 1666b., and 1666c. ) as stated below : 1666. Correction of billing errors ( b ) Billing error ( 4 ) The creditor 's failure to reflect properly on a statement, a payment made by the obligor, or a credit issued to the obligor.

( 7 ) Any other error described in regulations of the Bureau. 1666a. Regulation of credit reports ( a ) Reports by creditor on obligor 's failure to pay amount regarded as billing error After receiving a notice from an obligor as provided in section 1666 ( a ) of this title, a creditor or his agent may not directly or indirectly threaten to report to any person adversely on the obligor 's credit rating or credit standing because of the obligor 's failure to pay the amount indicated by the obligor under section 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) of this title, and such amount may not be reported as delinquent to any third party until the creditor has met the requirements of section 1666 of this title and has allowed the obligor the same number of days ( not less than ten ) thereafter to make payment as is provided under the credit agreement with the obligor for the payment of undisputed amounts.

After several years and contacting via disputes with all 3 credit reporting bureaus, I have as well contacted Credit Acceptance corporation over several years to have this Issue fixed, without any resolve. My vehicle broke down while traveling through XXXX XXXX, Oklahoma, it was towed to XXXX complete auto repair, after a month of searching for a used rear-end one was found, at the cost 0f {$4500.00} as XXXX does not manufacture rear-ends for this such vehicle in XXXX in the month of XXXX XXXX after a 3 week wait for the repairs the vehicle had been in the shop now for 2 month in total I was unable to work as I use my vehicle and work for Oil & GAs clients all across USA. I was down and my Payment 's in the month of XXXX XXXX reflect a missed payment so XXXX & XXXX and XXXX I was without my vehicle in the repair shop at the cost of {$7900.00} to pick it up from XXXX in XXXX XXXX, Oklahoma. I had been in contact with the manager of XXXX, about paying my bill i was roughly XXXX short of the complete repair bill. At this time i had received a call from Credit Acceptance about my behind 3 payments, they asked where the vehicle was at when i stated i was behind because the vehicle was in the repair shop and I hadn't been able to get to work to make my payments, as my father was helping to pay the repair along with another co worker whom was going to help pay my XXXX bill so I can return to work. Credit Acceptance stated they were going top Repossess the vehicle after verifying it was in fact in the repair shop, But the manager stated that it would not be leaving the shop until the repair bill was paid in full. At this point the manager contacted via me phone and stated that he received a call from Credit Acceptance and I told him I let them know which shop it was in because Credit Acceptance asked, he did tell me they wanted to repo the vehicle and referred to they could not take it until the repair bill was paid. after a few weeks I called back to XXXX and was told that, XXXX was sent the title for the vehicle due to they did want to physically come pick up the suburban, My complaint is that I was never sent a letter of default or a letter giving a time line date to make up my behind 3 payments from Credit Acceptance, and I never had the title to the vehicle, it was always kept by Credit Acceptance. In XXXX 0f XXXX XXXX received the title for my vehicle from Credit Acceptance, XXXX then placed my vehicle up for sale. I feel I was violated by Credit Acceptance Corporation in the fact of failure to give me a Right to Cure the Default and a choice to make those payments.

Dear Sir or Madam, 1. CREDITACPT Account XXXX Please correct this inaccurate information on my credit report. I recently pulled my credit report from your Bureau and my attorneys and I had a chance to go over my credit report and in amazement, that you have decided to report me 30 days late on this account in XX/XX/XXXX. I immediately disputed this information with CREDITACPT and the results of the investigation came back " verified ''. Not only was I never late on this account, but according to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), the information furnisher is required to notify me of the insertion of negative listings. Since I have disputed the lates with the creditor, and you obviously " verified '' them, I am very curious as to what kinds of " records '' you may have for this alleged account. I am very confident that you are in violation of the ( FCRA ) and ( XXXX ) sections ( 1666, 1666a. 1666b., and 1666c. ) as stated below : 1666. Correction of billing errors ( b ) Billing error ( 4 ) The creditor 's failure to reflect properly on a statement, a payment made by the obligor or a credit issued to the obligor. ( 5 ) A computation error or similar error of an accounting nature of the creditor on a statement. ( 6 ) Failure to transmit the statement required under section 1637 ( b ) of this title to the last address of the obligor which has been disclosed to the creditor, unless that address was furnished less than twenty days before the end of the billing cycle for which the statement is required. ( 7 ) Any other error described in regulations of the Bureau. 1666a. Regulation of credit reports ( a ) Reports by creditor on obligor 's failure to pay amount regarded as billing error After receiving a notice from an obligor as provided in section 1666 ( a ) of this title, a creditor or his agent may not directly or indirectly threaten to report to any person adversely on the obligor 's credit rating or credit standing because of the obligor 's failure to pay the amount indicated by the obligor under section 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) of this title, and such amount may not be reported as delinquent to any third party until the creditor has met the requirements of section 1666 of this title and has allowed the obligor the same number of days ( not less than ten ) thereafter to make payment as is provided under the credit agreement with the obligor for the payment of undisputed amounts. ( b ) Reports by creditor on delinquent amounts in dispute ; notification of obligor of parties notified of delinquency If a creditor receives a further written notice from an obligor that an amount is still in dispute within the time allowed for payment under subsection ( a ) of this section, a creditor may not report to any third party that the amount of the obligor is delinquent because the obligor has failed to pay an amount which he has indicated under section 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) of this title, unless the creditor also reports that the amount is in dispute and, at the same time, notifies the obligor of the name and address of each party to whom the creditor is reporting information concerning the delinquency. ( c ) Reports by creditor of subsequent resolution of delinquent amounts A creditor shall report any subsequent resolution of any delinquencies reported pursuant to subsection ( b ) to the parties to whom such delinquencies were initially reported. 1666b. Timing of payments ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. Because I take my credit very seriously, I contacted every name and account that was listed on the report. I was again very shocked by the multiple names, account numbers and figures. Included with this letter, is every letter written to those who have hampered my ability to obtain credit. I believe that any judge that looks over the report would agree that it is a violation of both the FCRA, CCPA and FACTA. The following accounts were listed on your report and I have demanded from them a full accounting and five years worth of records to see if their accounts were in violation of the FAIR CREDIT BILLING ACT ( XXXX ). We also demanded signed contracts, agreements or any legal paperwork that would tie us to the following accounts. Under the FCRA, you are required to conduct an investigation on this account if I request it. I DEMAND to see all 100 % verifiable proof that I was indeed Verifiably late on these accounts and the creditor fulfilled its obligations under ( XXXX 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) ), As I was never notified of a billing delinquency on my accounts, which the creditor must do under section ( XXXX1666 ( b ) ( 6 ). I DEMAND to see proof that I was mailed my statement to the correct address notifying me of both payment due date and delinquency of payment on the account. If you can not provide 100 % Verifiable proof and proper documentation that the CREDITOR fulfilled its obligations under the ( XXXX ) and ( FCRA ), I therefore demand these late payments be removed from my account or I will be forced to be in contact with the Attorney General of my State and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. I therefore am submitting my written request to you to conduct an investigation. Per the FCRA, you have 30 days to conduct this investigation and respond to my request. If you do not respond within this time period, per the FCRA, you must remove this negative information. Thank you for your time, XXXX XXXX SS # : XXXX Date of Birth : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX : Consumer Financial Protection Bureau XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Iowa XXXX

The company Credit Acceptance is currently investigating a car loan that was taken out using my personal information which I have been trying to have removed from my credit report for several months. I am filing this complaint to ensure this is taken seriously and this account is thoroughly investigated. On XX/XX/XXXX I called in and spoke to a representative by the name of XXXX who was extremely rude and did not take my claim seriously she told me the account was too old to dispute and that their was a judgement filed against me in XXXX New York she then advised me to send an email to XXXX with an identity theft affidavit, my ID, and a sheet of paper with my signature written XXXX times. For the record I was born in the state of New York but I have never resided in XXXX New York I sent the email to credit acceptance with the requested information as well as a letter requesting that they provided me additional information about the account so I could provide as much assistance as possible in investigating how this account was opened. I never received response but my credit report said the dispute was resolved. I contacted the credit bureaus to affirm the account does not belong to me and they said unfortunately they rely on XXXXredit Acceptance to complete an investigation and they recommended that I contact the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. I lost my job so for a period of time my focus was elsewhere dealing with my loss of employment. On XX/XX/XXXX I decided to call back in again and I spoke to a representative by the name of XXXX who was a lot more helpful she advised that the vehicle loan was for a XXXX XXXX XXXX and that this loan was associated with the same address some other fraudulent accounts were opened she gave me specific instructions to write an email to XXXX and to provide an identity theft affidavit, my ID, and my signature on a piece of paper 5 times and to submit this information no later than XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX also provided me with an Account # XXXX and told me to follow up with the complaint resolution team at ( XXXX ) XXXX. I followed up on XX/XX/XXXX and spoke to an account specialist XXXX who essentially claimed that I have ownership of the vehicle and insisted that a " XXXX XXXX '' called me and left a message for me which I told her I had no record she also stated that she had several phone calls on record of me requesting vehicle repairs in the past and a phone call with me on an old telephone number claiming ownership of the vehicle on XX/XX/XXXX which I told her is simply untrue. I have not had that old telephone number in quite sometime and I personally gave them an updated telephone number on XX/XX/XXXX. I then requested to speak to XXXX XXXX and she told me XXXX XXXX and all of the Managers were in a meeting. On XX/XX/XXXX I spoke to XXXX XXXX and she stated that she did call me on my telephone number XXXX and perhaps there was a misunderstanding of the statements made by XXXX. She confirmed that she received the email but the ID was cut off and she also wanted a copy of my social security card which made me feel extremely uncomfortable. I was then told that the signatures I sent in as requested was a match to the contract on file which is impossible. She then advised that she has recorded calls and my voice matches the voice on the recordings and they have records of calls made by them to me and vice versa from my old telephone number XXXX the issue I have with that is that I did not have the number XXXX at that time and I told her the statements being made were making me feel as though their willingness to do a true investigation is becoming questionable. The account for this vehicle was opened in XX/XX/XXXX and closed shortly after in XX/XX/XXXX. If this vehicle was purchased in the state of New York why would there be a telephone number registered to the state of Florida make and receive calls? XXXX XXXX then alluded me to the fact that the information used to verify income was a pre-paid card of some sort which I then pointed out is another red flag that the account was fraudulently opened.She stated that the payments were made through XXXX XXXX which is also another well known vehicle for scams and fraud. Prior to ending our call she provided me medical assistance beneficiary information as proof of address which is also very strange I have never lived in the state of New York or been on any public assistance and I asked her if it was a customary practice for their company to take that type of information as proof of address. As someone who works in the medical field myself Credit Acceptance could not call and verify the information on any letter provided due to laws that protect sensitive personal information in regards to medical records.Ms. XXXX states that the letter came from XXXX XXXX XXXX Department and she provided me the telephone number XXXX she insisted that the investigation would come to a stop if I did not send in the full copy of my ID and my social security card I then let her know that I would search for the social and call the number to XXXX XXXX XXXX Department at the number provided XXXX. Once I got home on XX/XX/XXXX I called the number she provided and the phone just rang and rang with no automated set up, directory, or messaging service which leads me to believe the number is not a real number and the document used must also be a document produced as a result of fraud. To be sure I googled XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and the number that comes up is XXXX I spoke to a XXXX in their office and she stated she could find no record of my name in their system. Again. I am filing this complaint to ensure my name is cleared from this auto loan and I would like a fair and complete investigation which I have requested several times.

On XX/XX/XXXX I purchased a XXXX XXXX XXXX by putting down {$2000.00} with a loan amount of XXXX with 48 payments on XXXX starting on XXXX,, XXXX. On my first payment a charged over {$3.00} was added, when I asked was told it internet fees, I requested to be refunded since it was not on the disclosure agreement. During the course of the loan I had a hardship due to illness with lupus. I had contacted the lender and explained my situation, I had offer the lender a possession of the vehicle.I was promised that once I will be able to pay again all the late fees will be remove on the account. Two weeks ago I requested the fees removal so I can bring the account current the lender refused, when logging to my account cant see my statement, I requested so I can see the account history was told they dont provide that. I had paid alot money since two years, but the loan still show a remaining balances of XXXX. When I started reviewing the company I find out they have been involved in bad tactics to fraud customers. Why this company still in business? misrepresenting the cost of credit and tricking its customers into high-cost loans on used cars. The car-buying experience turns into a nightmare for many of Credit Acceptances borrowers, who face unaffordable monthly payments, vehicle repossessions, and debt collection lawsuits. The joint complaint alleges that, among other things, Credit Acceptance hides costs in loan agreements and sets consumers up to fail. The complaint also alleges that Credit Acceptance violated usury limits and other consumer and investor protection laws. The lawsuit seeks to force Credit Acceptance to stop its illegal practices, reimburse harmed consumers, pay back wrongfully earned gains, and pay a penalty. Credit Acceptance obscured the true cost of its loans to car buyers, leading to severe financial distress for borrowers and subjecting them to aggressive debt collection tactics on loans its own systems predicted that borrowers cant afford to repay, said CFPB XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. The CFPB and the New York Attorney General seek to halt Credit Acceptance 's illegal practices and make consumers whole. XXXX claimed to help low-income New Yorkers purchase cars, but instead, drove them straight into debt, said New York Attorney General XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX steered hardworking New Yorkers onto a path of financial ruin by tricking them into unaffordable, high-interest auto loans while cutting backroom deals with dealers to increase their own profits. These predatory actions hurt innocent people and left them with mountains of debt. I thank the CFPB for their partnership to stop this harm and protect everyday New Yorkers. Credit Acceptance ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) is an indirect auto lender headquartered in XXXX, Michigan that funds and services used-car loans for people with low credit scores. Credit Acceptance is one of the countrys largest publicly traded auto lenders and does business with a network of more than XXXX affiliated used-car dealers. From XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX, approximately XXXX XXXX people obtained used car loans through Credit Acceptance and its affiliated dealers. In XXXX alone, consumers obtained more than {$4.00} XXXX in Credit Acceptance-financed loans. The companys loans typically carry very high interest rates. Specifically, the company allegedly harmed consumers by : Hiding the true cost of credit : Since XXXX, Credit Acceptances loan agreements nationwide have said that consumers would pay interest at an average 22 % APR. However, the true cost of credit offered is far higher than what borrowers are told. This is because Credit Acceptances business model pushes dealers to manipulate the prices of vehicles sold to Credit Acceptance borrowers, based on borrowers projected performance. This increases the principal balance of the loans. By hiding the true cost of the credit in inflated principal balances, Credit Acceptance evades state interest rate caps and deprives consumers of the ability to make informed decisions, to compare financing options, or to avoid high interest charges. Setting up borrowers to fail : Credit Acceptance ensured its own profits by providing loans without regard to whether borrowers could afford them. For almost 4 out of 10 loans, Credit Acceptance predicted that it would not be able to collect the full amount financed by the loan. Credit Acceptance profits even when borrowers are unable to pay their loans in full by using aggressive debt collection methods. As a result of Credit Acceptances practices, customers faced late fees, repossessions, auctions, post-repossession collection efforts, lawsuits, and ruined credit profiles. Closing its eyes to practices that harmed consumers : The company created financial incentives for dealers to add extra products to loans and then shrugged off whether customers were misled into thinking the add-on products were required. Add-on products, such as vehicle service contracts, are a profit center for Credit Acceptance. They represented about {$250.00} XXXX in revenue in XXXX alone. When borrowers default on loans, it can lead to severe consequences, including wage garnishment and an inability to borrow money in the future. A default on an auto loan can also lead to the borrower losing their means of transportation, which can cause job loss and a further spiral of damaged credit and financial distress. This is not the only action targeting Credit Acceptance for violation of consumer financial protection laws. For example, last year, the Massachusetts Attorney General secured more than {$27.00} XXXX for thousands of families harmed by Credit Acceptance. They still engage on those tactics

To Whom it may concern, I am writing regarding my ongoing dispute with the company Credit Acceptance Corp. My Credit Acceptance account number is XXXX. I purchased a car ( a XXXX XXXX XXXX ) on XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX, the price of the car was {$6000.00} ( attachment 1 ). I put {$2000.00} down, as the lender Credit Acceptance dictated. The dealership added a lender fee of {$450.00}, making the amount to be financed {$4500.00}. As the salesman was going over the sales contract with me ( attachment 2 ), he advised me that if I kept the loan for the full 48 months, I would pay a total amount of {$6800.00} and that it would be in my best interest to pay off this loan as soon as possible. On XXXX XXXX at XXXX, I called Credit Acceptance to obtain a payoff balance and was advised that amount was approximately {$6500.00}. I immediately advised the company that amount could not be correct. The company representative became belligerent and condescending. I advised the rep that I would like to file a dispute. The representative told me that he submitted my dispute and forwarded it to the complaint resolution department and that they would call me at a later date. I immediately called the auto dealership and spoke with the manager, XXXX. XXXX advised me that my figures were correct on the sale price of the car, and emailed me proof the cost ( attachment 1 ). XXXX was not able to provide a reason why the salesman entered the incorrect amount in the cash price box on the agreement that I did sign. XXXX also went to her accounting department and provided me with a copy of the payment from Credit Acceptance to XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX in the amount of {$4500.00} ( attachment 3 ). In addition, XXXX phoned Credited Acceptance to try to fix this error, but was told that I would be responsible for the amount entered into the cash price box of the contract AND further interest and fees on that amount. With an already excessively high interest rate of 28 %, paying that rate on an additional and incorrect {$4000.00} is obscene, abusive and predatory. I have paid my monthly payments on time, every month without postponing a single payment. See attached payment history ( attachment 4 ) which includes additional interest charged to me. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a phone call from XXXX in the conflict resolution department of Credit Acceptance. During this 8 minute and 55 second call, she advised me to send in what documentation that I had to prove my dispute. I emailed my documents to her that evening and she returned my call the next day ( this call lasting 1 hour and 13 minutes ). XXXX said that based on the information that I submitted, there was a discrepancy but that they would not be making any changes to my account and the dispute was closed. During this call, I also spoke with supervisor XXXX, who also disregarded all of the documents that I submitted and advised that there would be no changes to my account. I have sent many emails and talked with XXXX several times since then. I have not received a single written or email reply from this company. When I speak with XXXX on the phone, she hangs up and ends the conversation before all of my questions are answered. I have sent several email requests for the company to perform a real and actual investigation to no avail. I have asked for a written ( at least ) summary of their investigation and have been refused. During my phone calls with XXXX, I have been given deflective and deceptive answers to questions. For example, when I asked XXXX how many payments that I have made on my account, her answer was about 17, or maybe 20 to 25. When I asked her to add up the funds that I have sent in on all of my payments combined, her answer was well, if you financed {$8500.00} and your balance is now {$6500.00}, then you have paid in about {$2000.00}. When XXXX asked me if I had proof of what the car was selling for, I said yes, I have already sent this to you. Her reply was that is not a Credit acceptance contract, and then she promptly moved to another topic completely disregarding my answer AND the proof that she requested. I have made 17 payments for a total of {$4300.00} and been charged {$2300.00} in interest. All based on an incorrect sales price. I need to have my account recalculated with the correct sales price in place, and a financed amount of {$4500.00}. If I had a loan for {$4500.00} with an interest rate of 28 % and total payments of {$260.00} per month, the total payoff over the length of the loan should be {$5800.00}. However, for a loan on the amount of {$6800.00} the total payments for the life of the loan would be {$11000.00}. Credit Acceptance only paid {$4500.00} to the dealer for the car ( see attachment 3 ). They are requesting that I pay approximately {$5500.00} in invalid fees. All that I am asking for is what is fair, just and right. I would like an accurate balance on my account, so that I may pay off the car. I am not asking for a reduction in their abusive interest rate, nor even any sort of refund at this time, if my payments have over paid what I in actuality owe on this car. If, however, Credit Acceptance attempts to drag this dispute out and there is a large over payment on my part, I will ask to recoup that loss, with an interest rate of 28 %. If Credit Acceptance insists that I pay on a loan of {$6800.00} with an interest rate of 28 %, and they only paid {$4500.00} to Incredible Auto, then I need them to make a payment to me in the amount of {$2300.00} plus 28 % interest for 16 months. This payment would insure that they would not be guilty of fraud. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

On XX/XX/2022 I received a phone call from XXXX XXXX XXXX stating they had received my application from carguro.com and I had been approved, but not for the vehicle that I selected a XXXX XXXX XXXX it was not available anymore but they had a XXXX XXXX and XXXX sent me the information I looked at the pictures and I called him back and XXXX stated to me the price he stated that it also came with gap insurance and it also came with a one year XXXX mile warranty for free. I said that I was interested so I went to the Dealership once I got the vehicles was parked in the front of the dealership, I spoke to XXXX he told me that it was going to be {$5000.00} not the {$3000.00} that he originally stated on the phone for a deposit. I pay the money he asked me to sign on the computer a few times Four time at MOST and after everything was done when I got ready to walk out to the truck, he told me that oh the service engine light might come on because it hasnt started in a couple of months but on the pictures it was no lights on the dashboard with lights on. but when I got into the vehicle the light was not on, I drove the vehicle XXXX XXXX miles to the store went to a store like XXXX minutes when I come out of the store, I started up the truck it was very loud and started to shake but the dealership was closed. when I got home it started to smoke so the very next morning, I tried to bring the truck back, I called XXXX answered the phone once I told him the problem, he says that we cant take it back they on or give my money back because the contract is signed so I called credit acceptance and they say that they didnt have a copy of the contract for XXXX hours so I couldnt get a copy of the contract so I called them back and tell them that that they never gave me a copy of the contract I needed one they never called me back when I read the contract I realize that they selected a box on one of the page of the contract that I said I was going pay XXXX for a warranty and also I was going to pay XXXX dollars for gap insurance which neither one of them were told to me they were said they came with the car as a package so I called back and tell them new found news I discovered in the contract and that the car was still messing up and I was told use the warranty so I told him I dont want to use a warranty I just got the truck less XXXX hours ago and also you have to pay {$250.00} deposit and I just bought the car to XXXX hours ago. For XXXX weeks while I try to find someone that will take the warranty that they gave me and someone who could take the type of vehicles I have in service it. the shop I did find with the shortest waiting time of XXXX weeks to be seen the truck wont even start up I have to have it towed to shop. once it gets there it takes in like a week and a half to find a problem, they said it needs a new engine the engines are dead so The Shop Calls the warranty company after they take it down the warranty company says they wont do anything until I pay the shop {$3000.00} to take the whole entire engine all the way apart before theyll even approve whether theyll pay for it or not. so Ive only had a vehicle for 10 days I paid {$5000.00} and now they wont pay another XXXX for it take the engine down to see if theyll even approve it also they still want me to pay the car note or {$450.00} a month plus Ive been paying over {$1200.00} XXXX paid in rental car since then, {$200.00} tow truck fees, insane XXXX And XXXX Fees {$300.00} at the same time I still owe the {$16000.00} under the installment agreement. Ive reached out to XXXX and XXXX XXXX multiple times everyone said the same thing or it was sold as is and thats it and Im on the hook for that when they sold me a lemon from the beginning, they knew that that wasnt the vehicle that I wanted. when I went back to their website where they sent me the pictures from the first night all the pictures were taken off the website but when I looked at all their old listings, I realized that they had switched the pictures, the pictures they sent me were not the pictures for the truck that Ive gotten they switch the pictures sending me pictures of a truck they had previously had. they illegally added to my contract {$4000.00} for the gap insurance and the warranty stating to me that they were free but they really added them into it and also when I called and said to tell the credit acceptance about that they said you can cancel them I read the contract says you can cancel those but the money will go back to {$4000.00} will go back to the credit acceptance not to me so it would take money off my bill and would be sent to credit acceptance that means they will be getting paid twice theyll get paid either way it goes so they get XXXX taken off their bill with a reverse it or they get {$4000.00} Ill have to pay for so theyll give her money regardless of the added into the contract. now I have no vehicle Im out of almost {$7000.00} +. XXXX and credit acceptance and XXXX XXXX XXXX all have been colluding and working in cahoots to scam and defraud me, and I want my deposit back I want to be able to get out of the contract with no penalties towards me so Im asking the court to help resolve this matter since we can not come to our own conclusion together I sent a demand letter I sent a resend that letter all certified mail and these are all the reasons why I should be able to get out is fraudulent contracts. * XXXX charged me a down payment or {$5000.00} charge which is a violation of 15 US C 1635 : No advertisement to aid, promote, or assist directly or indirectly any extension of consumer credit may state

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX sold me a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX.Soon after the Pandemic hit, and my financial situation changed drastically. The dealership added addons that they didn't honor or explain in detail for the vehicle. For instance, the car needed wiper blades when I purchased the car and had to be ordered. I received one free oil change maybe two at the most. I made an appointment and was a couple of miles over the mileage of suggested mileage and was turned away. I asked about my wiper blades instead and was told they stopped doing the wiper blades. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Alabama is using bad tactics and deceit when making sales. It was a Friday and I had been there for hours because nobody would finance the car. It was near closing and the salesman tells me he finally got a lender to accept me, and that I'd have to come back as well as bring XXXX $ in two weeks for a total of XXXX $ down payment total. He took the XXXX $ to secure the vehicle. He also said the vehicle had just come in and it had to be serviced and cleaned first thing in the morning Saturday. He spoke nothing about finance charges for the vehicle. He said that he would have more information the next day. I called the dealership and was told that the shop closed early on weekends, and Monday I could come in and finish the deal. I called on Monday car still wasn't ready. It was that Friday, and the vehicle was just now in the shop for detailing. Friday evening the vehicle was still waiting. I told the salesman I bought the vehicle because I needed to get around. He said Well just come on and you can bring it back for detailing. The seats were filthy as well as the floors doors. It was then that I was presented with the contract with Credit Acceptance. I stated sir this car went from XXXX $ to nearly XXXX . He tells me keep up payments for the first year and I could trade it. They had added warranties as well as Gap insurance that I didn't understand. The salesman says good thing is we do provide oil changes and wipers for life on all of our vehicles that way the vehicle is serviced, and maintenance is documented here. I was overwhelmed and inexperienced in the sale. A few months later the Pandemic hit hard and changed my life. I lost extra income and resources. It was very hard for me to pay car note. I called the finance company and made payment arrangements for the car note. The finance company didn't offer any assistance during that time. They were only able to stop reporting to the credit bureaus about payments. I asked repeatedly for help and the only help they offered was to make arrangements for the payments. Arrangements that were often broken because I had been affected financially by the pandemic. During this time my credit was tarnished. Even when payments were made it didn't help my score at all. Late/missed payments were still being reported. I was fighting a losing battle. My car was repossed and my personal property was gone. The repo company used are crooks. Upon my arrival via XXXX the tow company hands me a paper for what I was told retrieval of my vehicle and property. The property I did receive was tied in big black bags. The attendant tells me we're closing ma'am could you please move the vehicle out of the gate not allowing me time to fully access my property. It was when I made it home and realized some things were missing. I had several cases of XXXX and XXXX XXXX and a big box of beauty supplies and hair products, and some XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX products. I immediately reach out to the tow company. The customer service tells me its company policy to remove all liquids. I called Credit Acceptance, and they did their investigation and said I signed off on the receipt of my property and there's nothing they could do. Again, I took a big loss. I told them exactly what the lot attendant said about closing to move outside of the gate. The car deal was a nightmare from the start. I was charged high interest for basically not having good credit. I was set up for failure from the beginning. Credit Acceptance gains from poor people with bad credit who are in desperate need of a vehicle as well as inexperienced car buyers. They will finance cars and have no idea the condition of the cars or the dealership reputation. They don't require car faxes or proof of inspections on any of their financed vehicles. If you're inexperienced you don't know what you have until it leaves the lot. I have a family member right now that's trapped in the purchase of a lemon car contract no help from Credit Acceptance all they offer is an apology. Credit Acceptance will harass you calling early mornings and as late as XXXX.They even call on Sundays with harassment forcing you to make arrangements to their satisfaction. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Alabama uses deceitful tactics to sell vehicles. These businesses are ruining lives daily for profit and gain. They make you feel like they're there for you but they're really not. My car was repossed for the second time XX/XX/XXXX. They've yet to send me anything about the sale of the car and the balance owed. I went to the customer portal for Credit Acceptance and the balance of the car is outrageous still over XXXX $ .I live on a fixed income as I did when I purchased the car. This has affected me mentally and health wise. I'll never be able to fix my credit and live a happy life. I tried numerous times to get loans but was denied because of my payment history with Credit Acceptance. I don't have transportation and I'm physically just deteriorating because of my financial situation.

On XX/XX/XXXXXXXX I financed a XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX for a total price of {$4800.00} through a car dealership. During the purchase process, the dealership insisted that I also purchase a warranty for {$2600.00}, claiming that it was necessary to include it in order to obtain the vehicle. I later discovered that the warranty was not necessary for the purchase, and furthermore, it did not provide the coverage that was promised. The warranty company has a reputation for non-payment and refusal to cover bills, which has resulted in mechanic liens on vehicles. After considerable effort, I was able to secure a refund for the warranty, which was applied to my loan. However, I discovered that I was being charged interest on the combined amount of the loan and warranty, even though I did not want or need the warranty. In XXXX, my vehicle was involved in a hit and run incident, resulting in it being totaled. While waiting for payment from my insurance company, XXXX, which should have covered the entire loan, I missed a monthly payment and was promptly reported to the credit bureau. I have been reported for non-payment almost every month since then, even when I have made my payments on time. Furthermore, I have been charged a {$10.00} late fee every month, even when payments were made on time. XX/XX/XXXXXXXX is being reported that I didnt make a payment, which I did make a payment of {$210.00}. Also before the negative comments per placed on my credit report, I was not at all informed by letter what was going to be reported, especially negative remarks. I was harassed with phone calls when payments were not made on time, starting the next day. They would change their phone numbers and call up to four times a day. The law states that they can not call more than 7 times in a 7 day period. Additionally, Credit Acceptance, the financing company, does not provide any records of previous payments or financial information on their website. There is no breakdown of how payments are allocated towards the loan, and additional expenses, such as the late payment fees I was incorrectly charged, are added without explanation. It was only today, several days after closing my account, that I was able to access a list of my transactions. The record keeping by Credit Acceptance is untrustworthy and does not adhere to proper mathematical calculations. For example, my credit report stated that I made a {$4900.00} payment, while in reality, it was {$5000.00}. On another occasion, my credit report indicated that I had decreased my loan by " {$87.00} '' over two months, when I had actually made a {$210.00} payment. There are numerous discrepancies, and the amount owed never matches what was previously communicated by the company 's representatives. Upon receiving insurance funds ( {$5000.00} ), a refund from the warranty ( {$2600.00} ), and payments made since XX/XX/XXXX ( {$2900.00} ), Credit Acceptance informed me that I still owed over {$3000.00}. When I inquired about this, I discovered that they had added the insurance and warranty refund to the total loan amount and not the principal of the loan. After numerous conversations with representatives and the collection department, I was offered a payment of {$600.00} to pay off the loan in full and have it reported as being in good standing to the credit bureaus. I made this payment, and the account was closed on XX/XX/XXXXXXXX However, when I checked my credit report on XX/XX/XXXXXXXX it stated that I was delinquent on my loan and over 30 days late in making a payment. As a result, my credit score dropped by 30 points. Due to Credit Acceptance 's inaccurate reporting, my credit score has dropped a total of XXXX points since XX/XX/XXXXXXXX I have been diligently working to pay off my debts, including student loans, in order to improve my credit score. However, the inaccuracies caused by C.A. are hindering my progress and preventing me from obtaining a new car or finding housing. I was relying on the improvement in my credit score to secure an auto loan with a lower interest rate than the 22 % being charged by Credit Acceptance. When the account was paid off, C.A. reported Settled for less. This is not at all the truth! Because of this comment on my credit report I am unable to get any auto lender to lend to me. I was behind at one point with payments from a job loss. I was making arrangements to make it up to date prior to my accident. When I contacted C.A. to address the reporting inaccuracies, I was instructed to contact the credit bureaus and fill out a dispute form through credit acceptance. This has only added to the difficulties and inconveniences caused by C.A. 's careless employees. And prolonging my ability to purchase a vehicle that I desperately need. I sent online and mailed in disputes with all three credit bureaus and one directly to credit acceptance from the form that they sent me in the mail. Credit Acceptance 's practices, which include predatory lending and irresponsible reporting, have severely impacted my financial situation and creditworthiness. I will be reporting them to the XXXX XXXX XXXX Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and the Michigan Attorney General 's office. I will escalate this to a lawyer if need be, and potentially find others to make a class action lawsuit. I will also bring this matter to the news/media. I kindly request that credit acceptance remove this disputed information from my credit report in order to rectify the damage caused. Thank you for your assistance. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Date : XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX, VA XXXX Re : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Pa. XXXX Account # XXXX Hello and hope all is well. After reviewing the notice amount remaining is XXXX as of XX/XX/XXXX with taxes e-Collections XXXX per XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. After reviewing payment history, Im exercising my rights under the 1977 Fair Credit Report Act. I hereby, requesting the accuracy of reporting. 1. The bill of sale between XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and buyer. Never received any Notice of Deficiency. Received document and contact number and fax number does not add up. Spoken with Gentleman and not aware of vehicle being sold. 2. How were the amount calculated expenses incurred in retaking vehicle on an account filed in bankruptcy ( Chapter XXXX )? Explanation of Calculation of Surplus or Deficiency is unclear, my credit report is date of last report payment is XX/XX/XXXX from seller and not I. This is considered re-gaging of debt according to PA Statue of Limitation Laws, I therefore dispute this account pursuant to FDCPA, 15 USC 1692g and my states laws. According to my state 's attorney generals office, the statute of limitations for this type of debt expired. ( XXXX XXXX last payment is XX/XX/XXXX of {$200.00}. Vehicle was in possession for three years after last payment. Vehicle repossessed on around or after XX/XX/XXXX You have four years from the date of last payment to file. Documentation states there were no payments for three plus years. If you intend to take this issue to court, I shall inform the court : I disputed this debt. The statute of limitations on this account expired You are in violation of 15 USC 1692g for filing an action on timebarred debt I request there be no further communications from anyone affiliated with your company, except to inform me collection efforts are terminated, or you or the original creditor are taking actions allowed by the FDCPA and my state 's law. Any other contact is a violation of the FDCPA. I will report violations to my state 's attorney general and the CFPB. I will also consult with a lawyer to discuss filing a civil action under FDCPA 15 USC. 1692k ( a ) ( 1 ). Be advised I keep notes of all phone calls, and any violation of the FDCPA can result in your company being fined up to {$1000.00} per violation plus costs, expenses, and attorneys fees. XXXX. The amount generated of the amount of credit to my account. Including any payments received since date of item # 1 above other credit to which is entitled, including rebates on rebates. XXXX or credit services charges or ancillary products such as a Gap contract of XXXX. Documents are unclear 4. Do your company have a license to practice in Pennsylvania? If so, please provide the number? Actual license? I have previously demanded that your company validate the above-listed item. You have failed to do so. Please take notice that your inaction is detrimental to me and is in violation of various laws, including, but not limited to, the Consumer Credit Protection Act ( CCPA ), the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). As you are aware, your firm knew or should have known that the actions taken against me and the information collected about me was inappropriate and damaging to me. Your inaction makes it apparent that you have failed to use reasonable care regarding this matter and you have failed to use even minimal procedures to ensure that I was not harmed by your dissemination of information that is inaccurate or which can not be validated. Specifically, you have communicated and are continuing to communicate incorrect and defamatory information to third parties, including, but not limited to, XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. As a result of these blatantly reckless, wanton, and intentional acts, I have suffered and continue to suffer general and specific damages. Please accept this letter as my demand for the immediate and complete removal of this tradeline from my credit reports ( XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX ). As I am currently attempting to apply for credit, time is of the essence. Be advised that if this matter is not resolved in 30 days, I will take any and all necessary steps to protect my rights, including, but not limited to, the commencement of legal action. I have sent you a notice requiring you to verify this debt in accordance with 15 USC 1692g. I have included a copy of the original dispute, which lists in detail the type of verification requested. In response you have only sent a computer-generated print-out of the total amount you claim is due, which may not be accurate. Furthermore, you have failed to provide an executed credit contract proving liability of this debtor on the amount claimed. This is unsatisfactory as proof that I owe the debt ( please see Fields v. Wilber Law Firm, Donald L. Wilber and Kenneth Wilber, USCA-02-C-0072, 7th Circuit Court, Sept 2004. ), and is hereby rejected as a validation of the debt. You have not complied with my right to have the debt validated according to the standards of the FDCPA, and your response is hereby rejected as a validation of the debt. You must now remove the collection listing from my credit report, or I will file a lawsuit for violation of FDCPA, 809 ( b ). Thank you for your assistance as I assert my right to have a proper validation of the referenced account according to law. Respectfully, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Pa XXXX XXXX

ON XX/XX/XXXX, I RECEIVED A SLOT MACHINE THEMED PULL-TAB MAILER FROM XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX AT XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, MI XXXX. BECAUSE I WAS IN DESPERATE NEED OF A VEHICLE, I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP, BECAUSE MY MAILER SHOWED THAT I WAS A " GRAND PRIZE WINNER ''. I WAS CONTACTED BY AN XXXX XXXX WHO WAS WORKING AT THE DEALERSHIP BUT WAS " A FLOATER WHO WORKED WITH SEVERAL OF THE XXXX XXXX LOCATIONS ''. HER PHONE NUMBER WAS XXXX. WHEN I SPOKE WITH XXXX, I WAS VERY CLEAR THAT THIS WAS MY VERY FIRST VEHICLE LOAN, MY CREDIT SCORE WAS LOW DUE TO LACK OF CREDIT HISTORY, THAT I WOULD ONLY CONSIDER PURCHASING A TRUCK OR SUV. BUT PREFERRED A TRUCK. XXXX PROMISED ME THAT THIS DEALERSHIP COULD HELP WITH MY NEEDS AND GET ME INTO A GREAT VEHICLE. I WAS ALSO VERY CANDID WITH XXXX ABOUT MY BEING XXXX. AND THAT I NEEDED VERY TRANSPARENT AND CLEAR COMMUNICATION. THERE WERE MULTIPLE TEXTS BACK AND FORTH CONFIRMING ALL OF THIS INFORMATION. ( XXXX STATES THEY DON'T KEEP THE ACTUAL TEXT MESSAGE CONTENTS. BUT I DO HAVE PHONE RECORDS SHOWING THE MULTIPLE CALLS AND SHOWING THAT MESSAGES WERE SENT AND RECEIVED FROM HER ). XXXX STATED THAT I HAD TO COME INTO THE DEALERSHIP WITH MY MAILER TO ENTER MY MAILER CODE INTO THEIR LAPTOP TO SEE EXACTLY WHAT I HAD WON. SHE ALSO STATED THAT THEY NEEDED TO RUN A CREDIT CHECK TO SEE WHAT TYPE OF FINANCING THEY COULD GET ME. ON XX/XX/XXXX, I PROVIDED XXXX WITH MY NAME, SSN, AND INCOME VIA PAY SLIPS. SHE CAME TO PICK ME UP ON XXXX FOR AN APPOINTMENT AT THE DEALERSHIP. IT TURNED OUT THAT I HAD NOT WON THE " GRAND PRIZE ''. BUT INSTEAD, I HAD " WON '' {$2000.00} OFF OF THE PURCHASE OF A VEHICLE. XXXX AND THE SALES MANAGER TRIED MULTIPLE TIMES TO PRESSURE ME INTO PURCHASING A XXXX XXXX. I TOLD THEM FLAT OUT TO TAKE ME HOME AS I TOLD THEM UP FRONT THAT I WOULD ABSOLUTELY NEVER CONSIDER PURCHASING ANYTHING OTHER THAN A TRUCK OR SUV. THE SALES MANAGER XXXX XXXX XXXX, FINALLY TOLD XXXX TO TELL ME THAT THEY HAD AN AS-IS TRUCK THEY COULD GET ME INTO. IT WAS A XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX WITH XXXX MILES ON IT. THE AIRBAG LIGHT AND TPMS LIGHT WERE ON. I WAS TOLD THAT THE TRUCK HAD AN OPEN RECALL ON THE XXXX AIR BAG RECALL. BUT THAT THE DEALERSHIP WOULD NOT FIX IT. ( DEALERSHIPS DON'T EVEN PAY FOR THE RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER PAYS FOR THOSE. I HAD TO TAKE THE TRUCK TO XXXX XXXX TO GET THE RECALL REPAIR DONE ). XXXX XXXX NEVER PROVIDED ME WITH A BUYER 'S GUIDE. THEY ALSO DID NOT DISCLOSE THAT THERE WAS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE WITH THE DOOR LOCKS. THE REAR WHEEL WELLS ARE COMPLETELY RUSTED OUT. ( UNABLE TO SEE DUE TO PLASTIC FENDER FLARES ). I HAVE XXXX DIFFERENT PURCHASE AGREEMENTS WITH DIFFERING PRICES. ( NEITHER OF WHICH SHOWS THE {$2000.00} OFF THE PURCHASE PRICE ). THE TOTAL PURCHASE PRICE OF THE TRUCK AS SHOWS ON THE LOAN CONTRACT FROM CREDIT ACCEPTANCE ( AT 22.99 % APY ) IS $ XXXX, WHICH INCLUDES {$1500.00} AS A ( CASH DOWN PAYMENT BUT WAS ACTUALLY THE TRADE-IN VALUE THEY GAVE ME FOR THE XXXX XXXX XXXX I XXXX XXXX ). SO, INCLUDING THE SUPOSSED {$2000.00} OFF THE PURCHASE PRICE I HAD " WON '' FROM THEIR PULL-TAB MAILER IS {$21000.00}. THERE ARE NUMEROUS ILLEGAL STATEMENTS IN THE LOAN CONTRACT FROM CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORP. INCLUDING STATEMENTS ABOUT ARBITRATION, AND EXCELLERATED PAYMENTS SHOULD I DEFAULT ON THE LOAN. IN A COMPLAINT I SUBMITTED TO THE MICHIGAN STATE ATTORNEY GENERAL, I RECEIVED A REPLY FROM CREDIT ACCEPTANCE STATING THAT THE CONTRACT STATES I WAS ABLE TO NEGOTIATE THE PRICE ( WHICH I WAS NOT ALLOWED ) I WAS TOLD THAT THIS WAS THE PRICE. THE DEALERSHIP REFUSED TO PROVIDE ANY INFORMAITON ABOUT VETERANS ' OR TYPES OF DISCOUNTS. THEY REFUSED TO ANSWER ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS. XXXX EVEN KEPT LOOKING OVER MY SHOULDER WHEN HAVING ME DO THE ELECTRONIC PAPERWORK, RUSHING ME ALONG. STATING THAT I NEEDED TO HURRY AND THAT THIS WAS ALL " STANDARD '' PAPERWORK. CREDIT ACCEPTANCE EVEN STATED THAT THEY CHECKED WITH THE DEALERSHIP WHO TOLD THEM THAT THEY DON'T SEND THESE TYPES OF MAILERS. I HAVE PROOF THAT XXXX XXXX DID SEND THESE MAILERS. THE LENDER PERFORMED PREDITORY LENDING PRACTICES AGAINST ME, AND WORKED IN COLLUSSION WITH THE DEALERSHIP ( LOAN CONTRACT STATES THEY HAVE " AN AGREEMENT WITH THE DEALERSHIP '' ) TO GROSSLY OVERCHARGE ME FOR THE VEHICLE. THE DEALERSHIP ( XXXX XXXX XXXX AND XXXX XXXX ) ALSO PERFORMED DECEPTIVE/AGGRESSIVE SALES TACTICS, TAKING ADVANTAGE OF MY XXXX IN BEING XXXX. REFUSED TO FIX AN OPEN SAFETY RECALL WHICH WOULD NOT HAVE COSTED THE DEALERSHIP A XXXX. IN LOOKING AT XXXX AND XXXX, THE VEHICLE IS WORTH BETWEEN {$2300.00} AND {$5700.00} WITH THE MILAGE ON IT. THE DEALERSHIP ALSO PERFORMED IDENTITY FRAUD BY NUMEROUS ADDITIONAL FALSE LOAN APPLICATIONS ON THE DATES OF XX/XX/XXXX AND XX/XX/XXXX. MANY FOR OTHER VEHICLES I NEVER SAW, HEARD ANYTHING ABOUT, OR WAS AWARE OF IN ANY WAY. THE ONLY VEHICLE I WAS SHOWN, KNEW ABOUT OR AUTHORIZED ANY LOAN APPLICATION BE APPLIED FOR WAS THE TRUCK I PURCHASED. MANY OF THOSE HAD REBUTTLE TERMS SENT BACK BY THE LENDERS WHO DENIED THE TERMS INITIALLY REQUESTED IN THE FALSE LOAN APPLICATIONS SUBMITTED BY THE DEALERSHIP. THE DEALERSHIP ALSO INFLATED MY INCOME AFTER I HAD ADVISED THEM OF MY CORRECT PAY AND PROVIDED PAY SLIPS TO THEM ON XXXX I HAVE TRIED MANY, MANY TIMES TO GET THIS INFORMATION FROM THE DEALERSHIP. THEY REFUSE TO EVEN TAKE MY CALLS UNLESS I CALL FROM A NUMBER THAT IS NOT MY OWN. THEY EVEN AGREED ABOUT A MONTH AGO TO PROVIDE ME WITH AN ADDITIONAL COPY OF THE SALES AGREEMENT. THEY NEVER SENT IT.

I should have known better at the time but due to bad credit I couldnt get approved for vehicle financing anywhere else. I went into the situation being content with over paying for a XXXX car and expected high interest rates because of my credit situation. The dealer actually did a superb job of making Credit Acceptance sound like a decent opportunity, which should have been a red flag. You can pick any car you want! Approval wont be a problem ... Yes XX/XX/XXXX % interest is very high but just make on time payments for a 6 months and try to refinance through a credit union. Both the dealer and credit acceptance advertise and brag about how they help your credit by reporting to the credit bureaus, what they dont tell you is that if your FULL monthly payment isnt paid by the EXACTDUE date, they report you as 30 days late. Last year I put my account on auto pay bi-weekly to split the amount due in half each time I got paid because well ... 23 % interest makes for a pretty excessive monthly payment ... so every two weeks half of my monthly payment was auto paid to them ... .except some times that second payment fell outside of the exact due date but still well within a week or so. Now, this wouldnt be such a huge problem except for the lack of transparency within the customer portal ... where you can pay this company all your money but you cant see ANYTHING useful to your contract as in payment history, statements, no warnings, no advice. However, there is a nice message explaining PAYMENT ARRANGEMENTS are not reflected in the portal which in my case includes bi-weekly auto pays. So, the portal ALWAYS said I was a month late..I called customer service out of concern back in probably XXXX or XXXX and was assured this was ok and just a bug in the portal that doesnt allow us customers to see our own financial information, and/or status. Fast forward to recent days. You do not have any idea how MAD I was and am, as someone who has been struggling and trying to fix my credit for YEARS to find out credit acceptance had been reporting me as past due almost every single month since I switched my payments to bi-weekly which was in XXXX of XXXX. Not once did I receive a letter, an email, a text or carrier pigeon advising me my account was past due. The worst part is SIX of those reported missed payments are for every month since XXXX, during this pandemic when ALL other banks and alike are trying to helping their customers. I tried to dispute the last 6 late marks to no avail but this company did not care at all about helping me nor did they consider the fact that Ive made numerous extra payments through out the contract, never took my account off auto pay and was NEVER 30+ late, and the real kicker being I was laid off in XXXX due to COVID. I did not ever ask to skip payments, I didnt ask for any special treatment etc. I kept paying. As of this AM I still owed XXXX dollars, which I decided to just pay off completely today, because I am so frustrated and defeated over this entire process. How is that for financial relief from a creditor for a customer unable to work because of this pandemic? Anyways, I requested my pay off quote, paid the amount on the document they sent me ... ..and now it says I owe XXXX .... in 341 days ... ... which did make me laugh a little but I am sure they will try to mark that as a late payment on my credit report as a final slap in the face. I did not get a confirmation email from Credit Acceptance, no messaging saying the account is paid, no receipt, no instructions on how I am going to get my title for my worthless car ... nothing. All I got out of my experience with them is a car that has cost me more to fix than what its worth, and an absolutely DESTROYED credit score because they were the only open loan on my report besides student loans. As a XXXX year old graduated from college I have been not only dreaming but STRIVING to put the pieces needed into place to purchase my own home and now because of this company I am being and will continue to be denied that opportunity because of my credit score that has been calculated based on what has been reported by this company alone. I am pretty sure I still wont even be approved to finance a new vehicle after this situation. Contrary to this rant I have gone off about, I am a laid back, whatever happens happens kind of person and I really make it a point not to dwell on things ; but the sheer destruction this company did by destroying my credit, combined with the the circumstances and timing of when it happened is inexcusable. Because of that, I am submitting this complaint along with a XX/XX/XXXX review. I dont expect this to rectify the damage that was done, I honestly dont even think the damage is repairable at this point but, maybe it will help someone else along the way who is considering financing through Credit Acceptance. They are a predatory lending company, who make money off of other peoples disadvantages by charging DRASTICALLY high interest rates, on used cars that cant even pass the required state inspection ( mine hasnt passed since XXXX, I bought the car in XXXX ... the only garage to give it a sticker was the dealership I bought from ) and most importantly the LACK of transparency, communication and access to my own financial information to avoid something as damaging as this is completely unacceptable.

I got approved for a auto loan in XXXX XXXX XXXX by credit acceptance. On XXXX XXXX, I made a payment arrangement on my XXXX payment for XXXX the only payment I was ever late on. I paid XXXX dollars that the representative from credit acceptance told me to pay and the remaining balance was split into XXXX payments, my new monthly payment was XXXX until the late balance was paid in full. However I totalled my vehicle 4 days later on the XXXX of XXXX. At that time I had full coverage and Gap from XXXX XXXX XXXX, on my vehicle. The balance on my vehicle at that time was XXXX. My Insurance company paid XXXX and sent XXXX to Credit acceptance after taking out my XXXX deductible. Credit acceptance said they applied my insurance check to the past due balance and late fee of XXXX first and the remaining balance towards the principal. which left me owing XXXX, Credit Acceptance said they would file for my Gap to pay the remaining balance, even though I wanted to do it myself, after finding out that I couldn't file myself or even speak to this Gap company because this gap company is allegedly a third party to credit acceptance but i have the same account number for Gap and credit acceptance, and this gap company told me they only correspond with credit acceptance and cant correspond with me, even though I pay them separately. Which I didn't know any of this until the accident. Credit acceptance sent over a Gap addendum to me by email that has my name on it electronically that I didn't sign or never seen at the time I purchased my vehicle from the dealership. I only signed that I purchased Gap and a warranty that only shows the amount of these warranty, -insurance. I never signed a contract for neither. When credit acceptance filed my Gap they reported to this Gap company that I had a late balance of XXXX instead of stating that the late balance was taking care of by my insurance company. Credit acceptance did this to keep me owing on the loan and charging me XXXX percent interest fees, even after they got my insurance check they are still charging me over XXXX dollars a month in intrest fee. Plus i still have a monthly bill of XXXX dollars due in XXXX as if I still owe on the loan. The Gap company only paid {$3300.00} stating I had to pay the late fee for XXXX of XXXX, also credit acceptance reported to gap {$81.00} for a contract service refund, that I didn't receive, and do not know anything about, I was also charged XXXX for taxes, tags and license. which my insurance company said they will not be reimburseing. My Insurance company also stated I can apply my insurance check the way I deemed fit since im the only one paid for it, and they only paid for the blue book value of my vehicle, and XXXX dollar deductible, there is no law in XXXX or XXXX, that states I can not pay the late fees out of my insurance check, that came from my insurance company. Plus there is no contract I signed with credit acceptance stating that in a event of a accident any check from my insurance company can only be applied to the principal and not late fees. I did sign that credit acceptance is not supposed to do Oral contracts and make up things not stated in the contract or add additional hidden stipulations to the original contract, this is considered a breach of contract. Therefore if credit acceptance applied my insurance check to the past due balance and late fees, like i requested, and they told me they did that first, then the only remaining balance that is left is the remaining balance of the vehicle. Also this Gap company allowed my insurance company to pay the XXXX deductible that was supposed to be taken care of by the Gap company that's stated in the addendum sent to me from credit acceptance, and the Gap company didn't hold themselves accountable to pay that, ,but trying to make me pay the whole XXXX that was taking out of my insurance check. Which my insurance company paid from the date of the accident which was the XXXX of XXXX. So i really only owe a 11 day payment for XXXX. credit acceptance did not even prorate that balance. Therefore this gap insurance is a fraud because the only remaining balance on my account is the remaining balance of the vehicle which this Gap company stand for guarantee auto protection that i thought i paid for, but this company is giving every excuse not to pay and keep me in contract and in debt, and or Credit acceptance just wanted to keep charging me ridiculous intrest and late fees on the XXXX and now up XXXX to now XXXX after 1 month of interest on the XXXX that should have been remaining and these fees are not even loan related. They are {$980.00} taxes, tags, title is not money i borrowed. Its money i already paid on my vehicle that my insurance company will not reimbursed. XXXX is a service contract refund that i didn't receive or do not know anything about. I'm also being charged 2x on my late fees and XXXX payment if my insurance check already took care of it.So I'm filling this complaint because I believe it's a conflict of interest with the Gap company and credit acceptance. Plus credit acceptance is just adding fees on me to keep me in debt with them. I receive XXXX and already loss my vehicle and this company doesn't care they just want to keep me in debt and keep applying interest rates to money I don't even owe and that's not part of a contract I signed with them.

In XX/XX/XXXX, I finance a XXXX XXXX XXXX through the Credit Acceptance Corporation. By XX/XX/XXXX I had called the Credit Acceptance Corporation to request that they come and take the vehicle because I would no longer be able to make payments due to ongoing XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Credit Acceptance considered the vehicle surrendered and subsequently put the vehicle up for auction where they sold the vehicle for roughly {$1800.00}. In the summer of XXXX I got a letter from Credit Acceptance stating that they were going to report to the credit bureaus that I still owed {$5000.00} on the debt and the XXXX would remain reported to my credit report in default as a collection until it was paid in full or until it was too old to be reported to the credit bureaus. Between the years of XXXX and XXXX I contacted the collections department at Credit Acceptance in writing to explain the situation as to why I had to surrender the vehicle like I did and I asked the Credit Acceptance Corporation to take a deeper look into the processing of my loan application and approval for the loan to determine if I was actually eligible when I was initially approved for the loan of the vehicle. I also made a complaint to the FEC to be able to determine whether Credit Acceptance had ethically " vetted '' me for an auto finance loan under federal law and regulation. Credit Acceptance responded to two different inquiries regarding the status of my loan in collections by writing. In the letter that Credit Acceptance sent to me in regards to the complaint made by me to the FEC, Credit Acceptance was adamant as of the Year XXXX that the only time that the debt would be considered satisfied is if I paid the {$5000.00} in full or the age of the collection item was too old to continue to be on my credit report and at such time it would end up falling off of my credit report. In XXXX I was working with XXXX XXXX on credit repair and it was noticed that the {$5000.00} being reported by Credit Acceptance between the years of XXXX and XXXX had been removed from my credit report. Based on the correspondence from Credit Acceptance itself that I had received in writing, and based on the age of the delinquency of the {$5000.00} that Credit Acceptance alleged I owed them, it was believed that the item fell off my credit report because it had remained on my credit report for 7 years. In XX/XX/XXXX, I received a notice from the IRS stating that in XXXX, Credit Acceptance had reported that they had forgiven the {$5000.00} of alleged debt and the IRS is now proposing that I pay taxes on the alleged forgiveness of the {$5000.00} alleged debt that was allegedly forgiven by Credit Acceptance the same year it was due to fall off my credit report because of the age of the collection, XXXX ( 7 years ). I tried to contact Credit Acceptance and ask them about this because I never received a 1099 form or any other information pertaining to any alleged forgiveness of the {$5000.00} in debt. When I asked a collections representative at Credit Acceptance for all written records and correspondences between myself and Credit Acceptance between the years of XXXX and XXXX, I was told that I would have to put that request in writing and send that request via social Service to Credit Acceptance headquarters. I believe that Credit Acceptance acted unethically. In their own writing to me Credit Acceptance detailed that the debt would be removed from my credit report only if I paid the alleged XXXX owed in full or until the debt was too old to be on my credit report. It is a shock to get a notice in XXXX that Credit Acceptance reported to the IRS that they forgave {$5000.00} regarding the XXXX XXXX XXXX that was repossessed by Credit Acceptance in XX/XX/XXXX. I have launched a XXXX XXXX XXXX complaint against Credit Acceptance for this and I have also contacted my local Vermont Department of Legal Aid. I have also contacted the office of United States Senator XXXX XXXX whose office has taken interest in this issue and the ethics & legality of this matter and the issue of whether a corporation can forgive a debt, even if the debt has already been reported your credit bureaus for 7 years and has exhausted is right to report to the credit bureau as a delinquent debt. I ask that the Consumer Protection Bureau look into the matter to see if Credit Acceptance acted in a predatory manner in regards to how they allegedly forgave the debt and reported it to the IRS in XXXX, and whether it was legal for Credit Acceptance to forgive the alleged {$5000.00} that was suppose to fall offy credit reports due to the fact that the alleged that a XXXX was on my credit report for 7 years. Can a corporation have its cake and eat it too? In other words, is it legal and ethical for a corporation like Credit Acceptance to take a very delinquent debt that is supposed to fall off a credit report due to the age of the debt and just before the stroke of midnight or after the stroke of midnight, they " forgive '' the debt right before the debt falls off the credit report of the consumer- and the consumer is left holding the bag after their credit has been ravaged for 7 years by the debt already? Thank you for taking the time to look into this matter. I will provide as much documentation as I can if requested. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Credit Acceptance Violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act and CARES Act by reporting me to the credit agencies as a result of their internal error while I was XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX hospitalize with XXXX ( I am attaching the hospital records for your review ). I really need your assistance to have Credit Acceptance correct their mistake, I need them to remove the negative reporting with the credit agencies as the negative reporting was caused by their negligence and poor training. My car payment automatically deducts from my bank account however on XXXX, I was a victim of identity theft and I had to change my bank accounts to prevent fraud. On XX/XX/2020, I called Credit Acceptance to make my current payment and provide them with my new debit card information for them to update their records so that going forward they could process the autopayment on the new card/account. The representative that I spoke to confirmed that current payment was processed, and that the payment method was updated with the new account, the representative also confirmed that going forward all auto payments would process on the new card. I thank the representative and hang up. On XX/XX/2020, I got XXXX XXXX with XXXX, I had to go to the hospital and was released the same day as my XXXX XXXX was not of concern, however I was XXXX XXXX and XXXX and the illness did not get any better in fact it got worse. I had to go back to the hospital on XX/XX/XXXX, I got admitted to the hospital again because of XXXX XXXX and was not released until XX/XX/2020. My XXXX XXXX XXXX during a period of about two months. During this time, I did not have any energy or desire to check my bank statements or accounts, first because I was really XXXX and also, I was not concerned with my finances as I knew I had everything in order. Prior to being hospitalized I was also working with my bank to finance a house so as soon as I felt better I check my credit report to see what my credit score was as I will soon be submitting an application for a mortgage. However, to my surprise, I noticed that Credit Acceptance had reported me for late payment. I could not believe it as on XX/XX/XXXX, prior to me XXXX XXXX with XXXX, I had called Credit Acceptance to provide my new payment method and their representative had confirmed enrollment on the autopay. I got extremely upset after finding out this and called Credit Acceptance again to see what they could do but the representative told me that they could not do anything. However, the representative that I spoke to on XX/XX/XXXX confirmed that I called on XX/XX/XXXX to update the information for the autopay and to make a payment and that I was provided a confirmation. However, she told me that they did not enrolled me on autopay because they can not process autopayments on debit cards. Well Credit Acceptance should have told me that the day that I called to get enrolled in the service that they can not process payment to debit card instead of providing confirmation of completed transaction. It is not my fault that Credit Acceptance does not properly trains its employees and because of this negligence now my credit score is ruined. They are unfairly limiting my ability to obtain credit, and this is all a result of their error. I should not have to find this out 3-months later after they unfairly reported me to the credit agencies for something that was not my fault. I feel that this is an unfair and deceptive practice that they have in place to take advantage of consumers particularly the ones that can not defend themselves such as is the case of people with XXXX and limited English. They do this to charge people with fees. When I called I told them I was hospitalized with XXXX and that it was not my fault that they could not process the payment because they should have been able to tell me that their system did not allowed them to process payments to debit cards. I asked them to contact the credit agencies to fix the negative reporting and they would not do it. I really need help ; all I want is for them to go to the credit agencies and remove the late payments. I am protected under the CARES Act as I had XXXX if this is happening to me, I am sure there are other people that are experiencing this. However, I believe this is part of a bigger issue it is not ethical that a company makes people believe that they will automatically withdraw their payments for them just to be surprised with late fees. My credit score was affected to the point that I now will not be able to finance the house that I wanted, and this is all just because Credit Acceptance ticked me into believing that I was enrolled for autopay. It is really sad to know that the government puts this law and regulations in place to help it citizens but in reality these company that take our money and can careless about the laws and regulation and the people that are giving them business. Unfortunately, I do not have the resources to get a lawyer but if you can guide me to where can I go to receive some assistance to legally fight, I would really appreciate it. I have contacted the local news to see if they can what happen to me so that other people that have experience problems like mine speak up or are in the look up for these predatory practices. I am really depressed that because of them I will now not be able to buy a house.

My name is XXXX XXXX and my husband and I are having a VERY serious problem our Credit Acceptance auto loan account, which we opened in XXXX of XXXX for our XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Our account number is XXXX. In XXXX of XXXX, at the very start of the COVID-19 pandemic, my husband was furloughed from his job and my hours at my job were slashed in half. Therefore, we had to put our account with Credit Acceptance Corporation on " COVID protected status '' and temporarily pause our payments and freeze all credit reporting due to the circumstances caused by the pandemic, which obviously were not our fault and entirely out of our control. Prior to COVID, we had a PERFECT payment history. However, approximately 4-6 weeks later, I contacted Credit Acceptance to have our payments resumed. The representative I spoke with transferred to an automated phone system to enter our bank account information, confirm our payment dates, etc. etc. At the end of the call, the recording said that I had successfully set up our auto pay. Despite this, we later discovered that NO payments had been taken from our bank account by Credit Acceptance whatsoever, which they, at the time, claimed was due to some sort of " technical glitch. '' I had to reestablish auto pay MULTIPLE times over the course of the next year or so, but there was always some sort of " glitch '' where our payments were never taken from our bank account, which I truly believe was done intentionally by Credit Acceptance. We have recently learned of the massive {$27.00} XXXX dollar settlement that Credit Acceptance was ordered to pay in our neighboring state of Massachusetts just last year for predatory lending practices, which I truly believe we are victim of. Fast forward to XXXX of XXXX - our account was put back into COVID protection status ( it never should have been removed from this status in the first place ) and we were making our payments every single month by way of auto pay. We split our payments into XXXX biweekly payments that were debited automatically from our bank account every other Friday, which are my husband 's pay days. We have done it this way since day one of taking out this loan. Today, XX/XX/XXXX, totally out of the blue, I received an email from Credit Acceptance stating that our account had been removed from COVID protection status with NO explanation as to why, how, etc. Our family is dealing with a great deal right now. My husband just had a XXXX XXXX due to a serious XXXX that nearly killed him and is now XXXX-XXXX, which, needless to say, has turned our lives upside down in a very devastating way. He can no longer XXXX XXXX. We are currently in the process of building a XXXX XXXX home that my husband will be able to navigate easily with his wheelchair. This means that our credit scores and credit history are of the UTMOST importance right now as we are dealing with mortgages and the lender will be pulling our credit scores once again right before our closing date on our home this summer. I have worked EXTREMELY hard to raise my XXXX score XXXX points in just the past year alone. I now have EXCELLENT credit and I NEED my credit to remain excellent for this home purchase that we are right in the midst of, and now Credit Acceptance is threatening to ASSAULT and DEMOLISH all of the EXTREMELY hard work that I have put into my credit this past year or so by removing our account from COVID protection status and reporting our account in the derogatory manner to the credit bureaus, all for a vehicle that is now almost XXXX XXXX XXXX, has almost XXXX miles on it, is having mechanical problems, and is rusting. We currently owe FAR MORE on this vehicle that it is even WORTH. We are not even CLOSE to paying this vehicle off. We can not even trade it in because we owe far too much on it. Believe me, we have tried, but no dealership will take it as a trade due to the amount owed on it, despite paying on this vehicle for 3 years and still having several years to go. This is PREDATORY. As soon as I received the email from Credit Acceptance today stating that we were being removed from COVID protection status and negative credit reporting and collection activities would ensue, I IMMEDIATELY called Credit Acceptance. Everyone who I spoke with was extremely rude and uncaring and refused to assist me in this matter. I was repeatedly cut off, spoken over, and spoken to in a cold, uncaring, condescending manner. I am absolutely DISGUSTED by how I was treated. I was bounced around from agent to agent and even disconnected twice, once even by a supervisor. I spent about XXXX HOURS on the phone, which was during my work day when I should have been working ; however, I NEEDED to get this issue resolved, but got absolutely nowhere. We need this very critical issue immediately resolved and our account placed BACK in COVID protection status ( we are still being affected by COVID as it is still VERY prevalent where we live- I myself was just in the hospital with the omicron variant ). My husband and I have enough on our plates right now and we will NOT have our mortgage and home buying process completely halted and destroyed by this predatory company when we HAVE BEEN MAKING OUR PAYMENTS. My husband REQUIRES this XXXX XXXX home.

CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION keeps marking my complaints as duplicate because what they're doing is committing fraud and unfair practices. I will keep filing a complaint until my lawsuit is processed. Let the record show, I do not care about an " arbitration clause '' because I've tried solving this matter before Federal court. Now, XX/XX/2021 I spoke with the legal assistant XXXX from CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION, which is a violation pursuant to 15 USC 1692e false and misleading but okay. I informed her that CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION did not provide any forms nor disclose I had 3 days to rescind the signature or contract. Since CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION did not disclose this, the time frame went from 3 days to 3 YEARS! I inform XXXX from CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION that my automobile was paid in full, by my Credit Card pursuant to 15 USC 1602 ( l ), before leaving the car lot via a CONSUMER CREDIT TRANSACTION pursuant to 15 USC 1605. I also asked XXXX from CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION if the call was being recorded, which she stated yes, and I read out loud to her the Federal law that states a CONSUMER CREDIT TRANSACTION took place. I read XXXX from CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION the Federal law 15 USC 1635 that states 3 days to 3 years notice of rescission if forms was not disclosed. I told XXXX from CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION I emailed my notice of rescission to XXXX and XXXX stated she, XXXX, will look at the documentation in XXXX email. That sounds skeptical but okay. I inform XXXX from CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION on XX/XX/2021, I mailed CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION a Bill of Exchange which they received XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION had a time frame to send it back but did not so they accepted it. I have green return slip, as well as a copy of the Bill of Exchange. XXXX XXXX stated they did not accept it but CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION did not mail my Bill of Exchange back. Also, according to UCC 3-603 TENDER OF PAYMENT ( b ) If tender of payment of an obligation to pay an instrument is made to a person entitled to enforce the instrument and the tender is refused, there is discharge, to the extent of the amount of the tender, of the obligation of the indorser or accommodation party having a right or recourse with respect to the obligation to which the tender relates. XXXX XXXX stated, Credit Acceptance provided you with the ability to purchase a vehicle that you may not have otherwise been able to afford. In exchange for Credit Acceptance helping you purchase this vehicle, you have a contractual responsibility to make payments to Credit Acceptance towards your account balance. I didnt fill out a loan application, it was a CREDIT application. According to the contract it clearly states, FINANCE CHARGE The dollar amount the credit will cost you. Not to mention, the Security states, You are giving a security interest in the Vehicle being PURCHASED. So what ability or loan did CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION give? How would I not be able to afford a vehicle when Im the one extending credit pursuant to 15 USC 1602 ( g )? Since CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION claim I did not pay anything then this alleged debt do not exist. I informed XXXX from CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION of the emotional distress, identity theft, and defamation of my character CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION are doing. I stated I will not pay this alleged debt and informed her I will be filing a Suit into Federal court if this matter does not get resolved soon as possible. CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION is continuing to cause harm, damages, and injuries to my consumer report and life. XXXX admitted repeatedly that CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION will continue to report inaccurate information to my consumer report without my consent. Ive sent CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION two cease and desist which they ignored by still indirectly communicating with reporting agency regarding my consumer report. CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION are doing unfair practices and stealing my identity pretending to be me. I dont care what any of the employees say, they cant speak for a dead corporation. I am enforcing my right as a consumer and natural person, pursuant to 15 USC 1692a ( 3 ), CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION remove my private information from every consumer report agency, mail my car title, return my previous payments pursuant to 15 USC 1692h, and monetary relief for the injuries and damages. I will not stop until I get my remedy. CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION claim they honored my cease & desist but have yet to do so entirely. Yes, I made payments because I wasnt aware of my rights as a consumer so I am enforcing them now. Pursuant to 15 USC 1602p CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION ran my Credit Card, received Credit, now want me to pay CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION back! How about CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION prove they have a contract to collect services of debt pursuant to 28 USC 3002 in connection with 31 USC 3718. Otherwise, redirect any positive balances in excess of {$1.00} to I, the Federally protected consumer in fact. At this point, it is harassment and unfair practices. I have been severely injured, emotionally distressed, damaged and I will be heard.

Under North Carolina Law, Section 1-52.1 of the North Carolina Rules of Civil Procedure explains the statute of limitations for debts is 3 years for auto and installment loans, promissory notes, and credit cards. Credit Acceptance ( C.A. ) has failed to honor NC law in a timely manner, in addition, C.A. has misrepresented itself by stating to the consumer it is a debt collector, in contradiction, the NC Department of Insurance has confirmed that C.A. is a " standard finance company, NOT a collection agency ( view attachments Exhibit # 1 & # 2 ). C.A. it has been confirmed that C.A. without documentation of a thorough investigation accepted fabricated documents from the Dealership ( XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, NC XXXX-XXXX ) without sufficient information to conclude that the consumer did not authorize the electronic contract ( See attachment ). To prove professional negligence, fraud, and professional misconduct between the dealership and C.A., the dealership never responded to the NC Attorney General ( See attachment ). Moreover, the consumer filed a complaint with the NC DMV License and Theft Bureau and the investigator could not locate the fraudulent dealership who was supported by C.A.. The dealership ripped numerous consumers off and could not be found. I filed a I.D . theft report with FTC since Credit Acceptance NEVER conducted a thorough investigation providing a time, date, agent I.D., and report number that should have concluded with a detailed explanation of the investigation. C.A. lied to the consumer but conspired with the dealership to conduct an unlawful transaction. C.A. stated that they can not locate the vehicle, nor dealership and will not repo the vehicle because they have no interest, but C.A. continue without merit report to XXXX and XXXX a debt that I never authorized electronically. The numbers are fabricated. The dealership submitted documents that display my incorrect address, down payment amount, no notary seal etc, and some documents were electronically submitted and others hand written by dealership ( see 1st attachment 1 thru 11 ). I received copies from C.A. after numerous disputes. XXXX removed C.A. from my report due to unsubstantiated credit reporting. C.A. is trying to collect even while approaching the expiration of this unlawful debt that is unsubstantiated. I purchased vehicle on XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) / Salesmen : XXXX ( last name unknown ). I put down a cash deposit of {$970.00} and incorrectly contract states {$2000.00} XX/XX/XXXX, vehicle breaks down, vehicle was towed to residence at owners expense and diagnostic completed by XXXX XXXX XXXX at owners expense ( See Attachment ). XXXX / XXXX states and confirms with consumer and Credit Acceptance that XXXX XXXX will pick up vehicle repairs XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX picked up vehicle. During a 60 day period XXXX stated via archived voicemail to consumer that vehicle is being worked on and fixed with XXXX mechanic. During this 60 period, consumer rented numerous of vehicles to commute to work at consumers expense. XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX via voicemail offered loaner vehicle in exchange that consumer remove XXXX complaint per XXXX ( salesmen ) XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX stated they were closing and consumer will need to pay {$1000.00} to mechanic for repairs due to consumer damages. XX/XX/XXXX, consumer requested a mechanical report from XXXX. XXXX nor XXXX mechanic furnished request. XX/XX/XXXX thru XX/XX/XXXX, consumer started receiving harassing calls from numerous individuals trying to represent XXXX saying " turn in our loaner vehicle '' call stopped after XXXX Police were notified. XX/XX/XXXX after vehicle location was shared from Credit Acceptance Finance Co the mechanic within days moved to another undisclosed location without notice of where my vehicle is and XXXX stated to stop all communication within because it was harassing. '' At approximately XXXX EST on XX/XX/XXXX while at work, I walked out to get my lunch from the loaner vehicle that XXXX XXXX XXXX provided in lieu of repairing my XXXX XXXX that location and status are still unknown from 60 days ago ... the loaner is gone with my lunch and most importantly private and confidential documents that I need for my court dates.. Yes, someone at XXXX XXXX XXXX came and took the loaner vehicle unannounced. I have no clue where the loaner is nor my personal property. End result, now I have no personal vehicle that I purchased on XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX, no loaner vehicle, nor my personal confidential information that includes SS # and DOB documents. Please help me retrieve my important personal items ... To date XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX fail to provide the location of my personal vehicle, XXXX XXXX XXXX reps fail to disclose their full names and location, updated mechanical report of my XXXX, in addition stated via email on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX EST that my items will be dropped off at a Police Station and to date I have not heard nothing in relation to where to retrieve my personal items and vehicle. This is not how business is conducted. This all a scam and C.A. conspired with the Dealership and continue to do business with them which is undisclosed.

Credit Acceptance is my lien holder they repossessed my car XX/XX/XXXX at XXXXXXXX XXXX they did not even knock on my door and ask for the keys I called them and told them they better not charge my account for an ignition because that's uncalled for I've talked to them many of times I did not know that they were coming to get it I knew it was in repossession stage they kept telling me if you make a payment of {$260.00} we won't repossess it and I asked them if they could put that in writing and they said they couldn't do that I said well then I'm not sending you no money if you can't put that in writing I feel that they violated my rights because I've got nothing in the US mail whatsoever nothing at all and today is the XXXX or the XXXX of XXXX and I still have not received nothing in the mail they're taking my credit right through the mud I've gotten different figures on the website and there's different figures on my credit report I'm disputing my credit right now and I think I'm going to have to write a letter the interest rate on this car is 22.99 % the purchase price of the car was {$5900.00} but because he had a gap insurance and didn't tell me that they're going to charge my account interest and the warranty which was {$1600.00} so by the time everything adds up it was like {$8300.00} they charged my account {$9.00} XXXX and some dollars for it says other charges and amounts and and they charged me a document fee of XXXX I just feel that with the money that I already paid on the car the car was 51 % paid off they didn't even take the Gap that I canceled within 30 days of having the car I called them and told them I wanted to cancel it they told me that they would take that off the loan they have not done that yet the motor blew in the car the motor blew XX/XX/XXXX in the morning about XXXX in the morning when I was coming going to town the oil light came on and I still don't understand it because I took very good care of that car I love that car but I don't I think they were very unfair with the interest rate now that the situation with the card and the motor you know I mean I called them I was talking to them often at least once a week to give them an update I wasn't trying to avoid them at all but they were calling me in between constantly and I asked him why do you have to do that you already know my situation you know I call and update and they're always real snotty with me I was on the phone one day with them crying my tears hard begging they wouldn't budge and I don't think that's fair you know when I first got the car I was desperate and when you're desperate you know you don't really don't care I figured well my car payments are decent you know so yeah but I thought that was kind of weird when I sat down in his office and you already had everything filled out and I thought well maybe he's in a hurry you know but now that I've got time to think and do some research the salesperson was not clear on a lot of different things and I'm going to absolutely go to their website and do a review on them because I think other people should know that the gap insurance and the warranty you're going to pay interest on that I don't understand how these dealerships need holders get away with that I am so hurt by this but even with me calling them once a week to give them an update they would call me five six times a week that's crazy and then on Sundays as well that's terrible I just wish I would have known a little bit more about interest rates back when I first bought the car because I would have talked to the sales person a little bit try to get it down a little bit but I really didn't know much about it I knew I had bad credit because I have student loans I also read online during my research to about the top notice I really think Credit Acceptance needs to be investigated for sure because other people you know there's a lot of people out there that probably don't even know or they don't care but I don't have money to throw away if I can attach anything that I have to this email I will attach it if I can't I will have to go to my regular email and attach it that way and this is my email address XXXX I know I'm forgetting a couple important things that I needed to include but I can't think right now I'm so exhausted with dealing with us oh they didn't even tell me where the car was located they didn't even tell me I called them after they had repossessed it I gave it the next day and then I called and when I asked him where the car was located they didn't even answer me I'm sure there's other couple other things too I'm just forgetting it's just it's been a long period since since that happened to that car to my motor is but it's been a very exhausting but all together with the interest and everything it was well over XXXX and this is for a XXXX and my personal opinion they took full advantage of me if I can think of anything else I will send well I'm going to go to my email right now and I'm going to attach the stuff that I have so you can review it thank you and I'm sorry if I got all this confusing I can be reached at XXXX

I previously submitted a dispute against credit acceptance on a XXXX XXXX XXXX interest rate 22.99 % for a total of XXXX with interest I thought they would really work with me with something but they're not she said in her remarks that I had time to ask questions and all that no I did not I got you the dealership like at XXXX in the afternoon he had the paperwork all filled out and XXXX XXXX XXXX will probably tell you that too my daughter-in-law was with me if I have to get her involved in this I surely will she can stay how long I was in that office and the second time my son so I have XXXX witnesses and if I would have backed out of the gap insurance he would have been really upset because he would have to redo the paperwork all over again I can not believe this I am so hurt and upset do you have the letter that I wrote when I was begging you guys to please work with me XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX told me cuz I called them XXXX the salesman that sold me the car told me that credit acceptance settles for 20 % of what's left on the loan the last time I looked it was like XXXX ridiculously high you have to admit that XXXX XXXX XXXX of that is {$820.00} and if I would have got charged a " '' FAIR RATE '' ''.. THE CAR WOULD HAVE BEEN PAID OFF OR CLOSE TO IT!! I was even willing to go back to XXXXXXXX XXXX and have them put the negative equity on top of another loan but XXXX XXXX Auto told me I would have to have money and a cosigner if I had money in a cosigner I wouldn't be going for a subprime loan I am going to contact legal aid this week about the unfairness unethical and I'm going to contact my daughter-in-law and find out how long we was in the office and my son just like when I talked to you on the phone you talked around me the bottom line is I paid {$8000.00} for that car already what would you think is a fair amount for payoff that's what I want to know a fair amount what would you pay? I've lost a lot of sleep I get a lot of headaches I can not believe this..the " MAIN '' REASON FOR getting subprime is to pay it off trade it in for a brand new car ... .I am XXXX XXXX XXXX my DREAM IS TO DRIVE A brand NEW CAR.!! I AM HURT EMOTIONALLY..MENTALLY.. PHYSICALLY DRAINED!! THIS IS VERY HURTFUL. THE MOST IMPORTANT THING FOR ME TO DO IS BE OPEN AND HONEST ABOUT THE SITUATION AND HOW IT MAKES ME FEEL AND THAT'S WHAT I'M TRYING TO DO ... FINANCIAL HARDSHIP IS WHAT THIS IS THE MOTOR IS GONE IN THE CAR.. I will write the president if I need to I need somebody to hear me and feel what I feel.. with the first dispute that I wrote I was completely honest because honesty is the best policy.. as lenders can work with consumers they can do whatever they want to do within the law I'm trying to explain the circumstances of this and how unfair this is to me it's so unfair I can understand if I only had the car for a year and only paid even XXXX but {$8000.00} I really wish you guys would work something out with me anything is possible I'm not asking for {$400.00} payoff but I am surely not going to pay another {$4000.00} that is unfair to me with the situation that I admit that I am in with the car with the motor almost {$5000.00} to fix it the car isn't worth that. In order for this to be a success I need your help!!! But with the phone calls I was getting phone calls at least three times a day every single day I have had XXXX since the first of XXXX before that I had frontier I'm going to be contacting frontier to get a printout because what I'm saying is the truth every time I turned around the phone was ringing I was {$100.00} behind even! And I am fully well aware that not every situation can be solved or resolved as everyone 's loan is different there's no two loans that are identical to be fair in my personal opinion I think a lot less for payoff would be suitable but that's my personal opinion I really wish you would help me with this when I sent the letter in the mail the US mail I begged and begged... I tried to do well by others I don't do to somebody what I don't want done to me for sure and I don't know what I did to deserve all these headaches that I get from the stress I'm going to end up getting getting a hold of my doctor and making an appointment this is affecting me in a lot of different ways that I did not know alone could affect a person I lost a lot of sleep trying to come up with a plan... I guess one thing you really have to ask yourself how would I feel if I was in her situation how would I feel about that? That's what you have to ask yourself and that is huge I am sure you would be just as hurt as I am I am so hurt I have spent so much time in the situation I have no time for nothing else.. something has to.illl go I pray every night. Every single night I was raised to be respectful and fair to other people..could you please talk to the owners of Credit Acceptance or whoever is in charge of the auto loans?? If there is a will there is always a way to resolve circumstances of a HARDSHIP..please look at my past payments .does n't that show how serious I am on making payments?

My car was totaled after it was completely submerged under water during a thunderstorm. I had insurance and I was told to leave a signed power of attorney in the front seat of the car and that the car would be picked up. I did as I was told and someone came and towed the car away. Months later I received a bill for {$5900.00} from credit acceptance. I immediately reminded them that the car was covered with my insurance. I was told that the payment was never made and that there was no record that the car was picked up. I repeatedly filed disputes with no success. I finally passed the information over to my mother for help. My mother filed several disputes with credit reporting agencies and contacted credit acceptance to inform them that the car was covered by insurance. My mother was told that her dispute was being worked on and that the account would be updated. We both took this to mean that the credit acceptance error and false reporting would finally be corrected ; we were wrong. Credit acceptance removed the negative reporting from my Fathers credit report but they updated my report with negative information. They are currently listing my account as a Closed Collection account with a balance of {$81.00} and a schedule payment amount of {$210.00}. My mother called credit acceptance on XX/XX/2018 and informed them that I never received a bill for {$81.00} but that I was willing to pay the {$81.00} but the negative information needed to be removed. Credit acceptance informed her that the account had been closed and that my account status would not be removed from my credit report. They also informed her that she was notified on XX/XX/2018 that I would have a balance of {$81.00}. My mother told me that when she called and spoke with the representative about the account her focus was on the fact that the account was being falsely reported and that it was negatively affecting my dad 's credit report ( my dad cos-signed for my car loan ) and my credit report when it should have been covered by insurance. She told me that the representative explained to her that there was nothing she could do because the account was already being looked at due to the dispute my mom filed with the credit agencies. They told her that they would get the insurance information updated into the system. She does not recall them telling her that I would have a balance due after the insurance was paid. She definitely knows that no one told her that the account would accelerate into a legal collections account and close out with a balance due and be reported on my credit report fo the next seven years. Even if they verbally told my mother that I would have a balance, my mother is not ME. And, that does not negate the fact that they never put anything in writing to me about a balance. If I was aware that I owed {$81.00} I would have paid it immediately. During her telephone conversation on XX/XX/2018 with XXXX, A supervisor from credit acceptance, my mother was told that Credit Acceptance was not a collection agency. If they are not a collection agency then how are they legally able to list my account status as collection and are able to say that my account was accelerated into collection? If Credit Acceptance is able to legally list my account status as collection then they must abide by FCRA, Fair Debt Collections Practices Act ( FDCPA ) as well as the Fair Credit Billing ACT ( FCBA ) laws. Credit acceptance has violated the above laws in numerous ways including but not limited to Fair Debt Collection Practices Act which states that creditors can not report false and misleading information such as : Incorrect balance Missing information Incorrect credit limit High balance is lower than owed Late pays after an account was closed Please TAKE NOTICE that my credit report has been listing Credit Acceptance as a late payment since my car was totaled. Also, even after I notified Credit Acceptance, several times, that my account was covered by insurance they repeatedly and knowingly reported me with an inaccurate balance of {$5900.00} for over a year. They also reported my account status as opened and listed it as a charge off when neither of those things were true. In addition to these blaten violations Credit Acceptance violated FCRA law by not notifying me that they were going to report my account with them as Closed with a balance of {$87.00} and list the account status as Collection. In conclusion, I had insurance and I did everything that was asked of me. I should not be penalized for the next seven years because a company made a billing error and has been blatantly violating FCRA and FDCPA laws. All I want is for Credit Acceptance to do the right thing and remove the negative information from my report. If they choose to continue to report false negative account information after receiving my complaint through your company then, my next step will be to go to the Attorney Generals Office, XXXX XXXX XXXX and Small Claims Court.

I initiated a Consumer Credit Transaction with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX XXXX for a XXXX XXXX XXXX I was a victim of unfair and deceptive practices. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX conspired with Credit Acceptance to defraud me, the consumer through unfair and deceptive practices. 1. I completed a credit application which included my personal data and signature which is of unlimited value and it was never returned at the completion of the Consumer Credit transaction. Pursuant to 15 USC 1602g, I, a natural person / consumer, am the original creditor and extended my credit for the consumer credit transaction. I have never received my consumer credit application back. 2. Public Law 90-321, Title 15 USC 1605 Sum of All Charges, and 16 CFR 433.1 ( d ), were violated as I did not receive Full Disclosure of the terms and conditions of the finance charge of Consumer Credit Transaction or in my offer to extend credit. XXXX. Per the 16 CFR section 444.3 Unfair or deceptive cosigner practices ; I was not presented the disclosures notifying me that I was signing the contract as a cosigner of the loan that XXXX Stop Auto received from Credit Acceptance. 4. To date, I have not received 3 copies of the disclosures of my right to rescind the consumer credit transaction which is a violation of 15 USC 1692g ( a ) ( 3 ) and 15 USC 1635. 5. At the consummation of the Consumer Credit Transaction, it was not explained to me that the Security Interest that was extended by my completed and signed Consumer Credit Application and/or promissory note, paid for the purchase in full and the credit card provided during the consumer Credit Transaction has been since charged for additional fees. 6. At the consummation of the Consumer Credit transaction, I was given a copy of a 1 page contract between myself and XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX that indicated Credit Acceptance as the Lien Holder, which was deceptive in that it indicated that the sale was a cash sale and not a finance sale. This violates 15 USC 1692j Furnishing certain deceptive forms. 7. I was also given a 2nd page that is labeled As Is Used Vehicle Retail Buyers Order. There are several line items that list the fees associated with the Consumer Credit Transaction, however, there was no indication of what if any of the fees listed were included in the Finance charge as required by the Truth In Lending Act 15 USC 1605a. This violates my consumer rights. 8. On the contract between this consumer and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX the last statement on the bottom of the page states IF THIS CONTRACT IS A FINANCE SALE ARRANGED BY THE SELLER THEN THIS ORDER IS NOT VALID UNTIL A FINANCE DISCLOSURE STATEMENT IS FILLED IN AND SIGNED BY THE BUYER. I have never received nor signed this Finance Disclosure Statement to date. 9. I was told that I would need insurance to drive off of the lot at the end of the consumer credit transaction. During the discussion, I specifically asked if the insurance was supposed to be included in the finance charge. I was told no, I would have to purchase it separately. I was then made to purchase insurance from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX by your sellers even though 15 USC 1605 ( a-c ) specifically states that charges for life, accident, health as well as property damage and liability insurance are INCLUDED in the finance charge. 10. I was set up on Auto Pay and {$380.00} was automatically withdrawn from my checking account on XXXX XX/XX/XXXX without my consent. 11. I have never given Credit Acceptance direct consent to contact me, however, I have received 6 letters to date from the company which is a violation of 15 USC 1692c ( a ) and 15 USC1692c ( b ). 12. I have never provided Credit Acceptance with my personal details, however, as evidenced on the 6 letters I have received from Credit Acceptance, with several instances where they are using my name, address which is Identity theft according to 15 USC 1681a ( q ) ( 3 ). 13. I have never signed a contract with Credit Acceptance, therefore the company has no standing to try to collect on any assumed obligation. 14. Credit Acceptance has never given me any loan or transferred any money into a direct deposit account for me. The company will need to provide documentary evidence of all transactions between myself and the company. 15. Credit Acceptance has violated me by committing mail fraud by mailing a billing statement pursuant to 39 U.S. Code 3001 ( d ) ( 1 ) - Nonmailable matter. 16. Neither of the letters that were sent to the consumer by Credit Acceptance had the statement " the following notice : This is a solicitation for the order of goods or services, or both, and not a bill, invoice, or statement of account due. You are under no obligation to make any payments on account of this offer unless you accept this offer. ; as required under 39 USC 3001 ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ). This is a violation of my consumer rights.

Ok was never notified or recieved a letter or phone call from credit acceptance that during the covid 19 pandemic that car payments or going to be on hold for one year in starting on XX/XX/XXXX, until XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, I notified credit acceptance in efforts to make payments on my car even when I was unemployed with no unemployment benefits at that time. I still have not received my back benefits from unemployment to catch up on all my bills such as rent, gas and electric from the extensions that was given to me by those companies. When Credit Acceptance sent me a letter it was in XXXX after the pandemic relief extension was already over. During that time that Credit Acceptance said they were not going to hold me accountable for late payments and I didn't have to make payments from XXXX until XXXX I was still making payments because I was unaware I didn't have to make payments during that time. Today they repossessed my vehicle and said I had a late payments after I made a payment for {$290.00} in XXXX And now on XX/XX/XXXX they pick up my car without letting me know credit acceptance took off the pandemic relief program so at this point I am confused and baffled because this don't add up and iam still waiting for unemployment to release my money and credit acceptance know that I been waiting on unemployment to release my money since last XXXX XXXX.ok back to credit acceptance I requested a payment history of all my payments from credit acceptance they only gave me a payment history starting XX/XX/XXXX thru XX/XX/XXXX and while I was looking at the history I noticed that the months of XX/XX/XXXX, which was paid, and XX/XX/XXXX and that's alarming and the never took off the XXXX dollar payment I paid off in XX/XX/XXXX, I called credit acceptance and requested a payment statement saying I paid off the XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX, I was told by credit acceptance that All the offices are closed due to the pandemic I kept requesting that payoff notice never got the notice and the fee I paid off was never removed and it's still on the account, at this point I feel as though I been ripped off and swindled because when I bought the car the dealer ship made the car run enough so I'm can buy it and then a week later all soughts of problems went wrong with the car, one important part to the car that was never replaced because that car part was a recall and they knew that before I bought the car but I didn't know iam not a car expert, so during this whole time I been busting my chops every way the right way to try to keep this car and fix it but at this point due to my discovery threw out the last 18 months this car was a lemon when I bought it and I say that to say this the dealer ship I bought it from never wanted to fix it when I called back a week later with problems, first off the car dealership had to rebuild me a clusters for the dash board because I didn't know if I was driving the correct speed limit because the kilometers was not moving at all I called XXXX XXXX that's the place I got the car from and had to tell them they will fix it my car sat in that dealership for a month and I wanted to return the car back and get my money back and go somewhere else so at that point I went to the dealership body shop to check on the vehicle inside the vehicle was a beer bottle as baby bottle and baby toys and old food bags from XXXX XXXX in the back seat, so I was a little alarmed and concerned about whom was driving my car for personal reasons and not fixing it, I confronted the body shop manager and he had an nasty attitude like so what I used your car over the weeks, at that point I just took the car and had it fixed on my own, and ever to time I went their with my 2 year warranty that I purchased with the dealership at XXXX XXXX they never had time to fix nothing on this car that they knew was their before I bought it, the car is XXXX credit acceptance charged me XXXX for that car and it's a XXXX model, XXXX XXXX selling lemons and credit acceptance charging people double the car cost and you have to fix it up yourself after you find out what a nice shiny lemon you bought, to be honest this is fraud on the dealership and credit acceptance because after my further investigation with this car I took it to a XXXX dealership and the results I was told was sickening it's a crack in the engine and their is a box the control all major function to operate the car was in recall years ago and XXXX stop making those model computer boxes years ago so that being said in due time to he car will self distruct because those model cars are all computer functioned, so at this point it's like I was bought in to be a customer of obtaining unfair and unwanted debt that was sold to me when I walked in the dealership front door, ok this is against the law and I need some one to give me a call.

My problem is with XXXX XXXX XXXX, not Credit Acceptance Corporation. The car dealership was completely in the wrong and should make this right. Details below : On XX/XX/XXXX I applied for credit at XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, TN. I received a call from XXXX XXXX the same day informing me they could get me approved with {$2500.00} down. XXXX was informed I had a co-signer if it would make things any easier or better for me and I was told no. On XX/XX/XXXX I made an apt with XXXX XXXX to come in and purchase a vehicle. Upon arriving at XXXX I was met by XXXX XXXX and XXXX introduced him to be my salesperson. I informed XXXX of exactly what I was looking for, informed him that XXXX had given me specific cars to look at as she told me nothing older than a XXXX & nothing more than XXXX miles. I told XXXX safety was a huge thing for me as I have a XXXX-year-old who was also accompanying me that day. I looked at 2 vehicles and picked the one that I really loved. 30 minutes later XXXX came to me and took me outside to show me a different vehicle and that the payments on the vehicle of choice were going to be super expensive. I asked how expensive and was told " very expensive ''. I did not like the vehicle XXXX showed me & asked if there was anything else and XXXX acted as if this was my only option ; almost as if I was bugging him wanting to see more vehicles. After a while of looking around myself I finally found XXXX XXXX, the finance manager myself and asked him my options because my options could not just be 1 vehicle. He told me how much my payments would be on some vehicles but nothing really about the vehicles but told me XXXX would take care of that- XXXX never did. I was told the payment on my vehicle of choice was around XXXX so I did go with a different vehicle and the listed price of the 2nd vehicle was XXXX. I was having a lot of trouble making up my mind and asked again the price of the vehicle of choice and was told this time it was XXXX a month ( it changed in 10 minutes ). I decided to go with the 2nd vehicle based on payments alone. After making my decision I went into XXXX XXXX 's office for paperwork. I expected this process to be like any other car I have purchased but XXXX really turned a screen toward me and on every page said sign here, sign here, sign here, sign here, sign here. There was absolutely no disclosure that I was purchasing anything additional. I was an idiot for signing but this should not have happened and I do not want it happening to anyone else. While signing my life away I asked XXXX multiple times about gas, the car being cleaned up, etc and was told XXXX was taking care of that. I was walked to my car and XXXX took care of absolutely nothing ; there was 90 miles to empty and the car was in the same condition it was when I test drove it. I got home that night and read all of my paperwork because it still did not feel right. I was charged for a deluxe extended warranty without given that option or disclosure. I was charged for GAP insurance without given that option or disclosure. I was charged for Roadside Assistance without given the option. I called my finance company only to find out all of these were optional and I this was to be disclosed as well as my options in loan terms, interest rates, etc. Absolutely none of this was explained to me, disclosed to me or even offered as an option. I immediately text XXXX XXXX asking about returning the car because I did the math myself and if it I was given all the options I could have afforded my car of choice. It is XX/XX/XXXX and I have yet to get a text back from XXXX XXXX. My mother knew the owner of the car lot and thought she would call and speak to him on XX/XX/XXXX and he informed her of what I wanted & needed as if I was some helpless woman incapable of making my own decisions. My mother even felt intimidated and left it at that. The night of XX/XX/XXXX I left a XXXX review and instantly received a message from " XXXX '' who basically told me he would do whatever he could to resolve the situation. I informed XXXX of everything I just put in this. He said " the car wash and gas is an easy fix but what would you like to see happen '' I told XXXX XXXX wanted them to do what was right. On XX/XX/XXXX I received a text from XXXX saying I signed the paperwork and everything was disclosed to me. I informed XXXX that it was not and the finance manager was too busy watching the football game and my XXXX year old was sitting right there to witness the entire transaction. I messaged XXXX later to see if there was any resolution, fuel, taking the vehicle back and doing what is right, them cleaning up the car, putting the floor mats in it that were left out etc, and noticed XXXX had then blocked me from any more communication.

Im not giving CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION any more of my money and I demand deletion from my consumer report, mail my car title to me, send my previous payments in the form of a check, and compensation for the distress and injuries. When I purchased my automobile, a CONSUMER CREDIT TRANSACTION took place, which means, CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION didnt loan me anything. I refuse to pay this alleged debt and what CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION is doing is illegal. Theyre stealing my identity and half XXXX honoring my XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX letter. It doesnt work like that! What did you guys loan me? Show me CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION account proving it! According to Federal law 15 USC 1605 Determination of finance charge is defined : Except as otherwise provided in this section, the amount of the finance charge in connection with any consumer credit transaction shall be determined as the sum of all charges, payable directly or indirectly by the person to whom the credit is extended, and imposed directly or indirectly by the creditor as an incident to the extension of credit. The finance charge does not include charges of a type payable in a comparable cash transaction. The finance charge shall not include fees and amounts imposed by third party closing agents ( including settlement agents, attorneys, and escrow and title companies ) if the creditor does not require the imposition of the charges or the services provided and does not retain the charges. Examples of charges which are included in the finance charge include any of the following types of charges which are applicable : ( 1 ) Interest, time price differential, and any amount payable under a point, discount, or other system or additional charges. ( 2 ) Service or carrying charge. ( 3 ) Loan fee, finders fee, or similar charge. ( 4 ) Fee for an investigation or credit report. ( 5 ) Premium or other charge for any guarantee or insurance protecting the creditor against the obligors default or other credit loss. Im tired of going back and forth about something thats mine. CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION little employee XXXX XXXX stated, I can confirm that your account was added to our Do Not Call list on XX/XX/2021. Specifically, an event was placed on your account that stopped all telephone and written communication with you. As a result, we have not called or sent you a letter since XX/XX/. However, your cease and desist letter does not prevent Credit Acceptance from accurately reporting your account information to the credit bureaus. Thats INDIRECT communication and IDENTITY THEFT. Did I give CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION my consent to report something? CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION constantly using profane language against my consumer report and accusing me of owing them something they NEVER gave me. Again, PROVE it! They want me to " pay '' but can't prove anything. I did not give CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION my consent create an alleged account with my information or report any XXXX thing to my consumer report! Theyre ruining my reputation, causing emotional distress, and defamation of my character. CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION is refusing to settle this and admit what theyre doing is wrong and unacceptable. Even the fraudulent behavior shows in the contract, which dont mean anything, because it was NULL AND VOIDED the moment fraud was discovered. I am attempting to get this matter settled before I file a Suit in Federal court. We all know CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION do not have a leg to stand on in court. Furthermore, I have completed the administrative process with proof showing Ive tried to solve this matter prior to taking it to court. This is the last chance CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION have to resolve things. CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION NEVER rebutted any of my Affidavits so it stands. If Im lying, show me what you loaned me! That contract don't mean anything on CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION behalf but it do show I paid my automobile with my XXXX XXXX. Now show me a LAW that says I have to pay this alleged debt. This is a FINAL ATTEMPT : If CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION do not honor what I am asking for, there will be consequences. I am demanding Cease all communication INDIRECTLY regarding my consumer report, mail my title to me, refund all my previous payments in a form of a check, and monetary compensation for the injuries you've caused. XXXX, XXXX, XXXX or any other little minion employee, speaking on behalf of CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION, the only response I want to hear is what Im asking for. If you do not wish to do that then just say, Take CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION to Federal court. Simple! Good day.

This is a complaint for violating several Florida Statutes and demand for damages. The loan is usurious, as I have been charged an Annual Percentage Rate ( APR ) of over 18.49 %, which violates Florida Statute 687 INTEREST AND USURY ; LENDING PRACTICES : F.S. 687.02 ( 1 ) All contracts for the payment of interest upon any loan, advance of money, line of credit, or forbearance to enforce the collection of any debt, or upon any obligation whatever, at a higher rate of interest than the equivalent of 18 percent per annum simple interest are hereby declared usurious. However, if such loan, advance of money, line of credit, forbearance to enforce the collection of a debt, or obligation exceeds {$500000.00} in amount or value, then no contract to pay interest thereon is usurious unless the rate of interest exceeds the rate prescribed in s. 687.071. F.S. 687.03 ( 2 ) Except as provided herein, it shall be usury and unlawful for any person, or for any agent, officer, or other representative of any person, to reserve, charge, or take for any loan, advance of money, line of credit, forbearance to enforce the collection of any sum of money, or other obligation a rate of interest greater than the equivalent of 18 percent per annum simple interest, either directly or indirectly, by way of commission for advances, discounts, or exchange, or by any contract, contrivance, or device whatever whereby the debtor is required or obligated to pay a sum of money greater than the actual principal sum received, together with interest at the rate of the equivalent of 18 percent per annum simple interest. However, if any loan, advance of money, line of credit, forbearance to enforce the collection of a debt, or obligation exceeds {$500000.00} in amount or value, it shall not be usury or unlawful to reserve, charge, or take interest thereon unless the rate of interest exceeds the rate prescribed in s. 687.071. F.S. 687.147Actions for damages : ( 1 ) Any borrower injured by a violation of this act may bring an action for recovery of damages. Judgment shall be entered for actual damages, but in no case less than the amount paid by the borrower to the loan broker, plus reasonable attorneys fees and costs. An award may also be entered for punitive damages. ( 2 ) Any borrower injured by a violation of this act may bring an action against the surety bond or trust account, if any, of the loan broker. ( 3 ) The remedies provided under this act are in addition to any other procedures or remedies for any violation or conduct provided for in any other law. The letter from your company dated XX/XX/2017 regarding the cancellation and credit for the GAP insurance in the amount of {$1100.00} should have been removed from the purchase price and the contract restructured to reflect the removal of the GAP insurance. Although the GAP insurance was purportedly canceled and credited to my account, the payments, interest, and duration of payments all remained the same so I would have still paid the same amount in the end. This is a violation of the Florida Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act ( FDUTPA ). Also, I was constantly being harassed with robo-calls to my cell phone, which is a TCPA violation. Violation of F.S. 537.012Repossession, disposal of pledged property ; excess proceeds. ( 2 ) Prior to engaging a repossession agent, the lender shall afford the debtor an opportunity to make the titled personal property available to the lender at a place, date, and time reasonably convenient to the lender and the borrower. Prior to taking possession of titled personal property, the lender shall afford the borrower a reasonable opportunity to remove from the titled personal property any personal belongings without charge or additional cost to the borrower. After the lender takes possession of the titled personal property, the lender, at the lenders sole expense and risk, may authorize a third party to retain physical possession of the titled personal property. On Sunday, XX/XX/XXXX just prior to midnight, I was awoken from sleep with a banging at my door by a repossession agent who had my truck attached to his tow truck in the road. There was no notice given and I had to collect my personal belongings from the truck before they left while the neighbors watched. I called the police, but they did not help. I had a payment arrangement with Credit Acceptance and if given notice I would have borrowed the money to get caught up with the payments, as these payments have been a tremendous financial burden. I borrowed the money and paid to catch-up the payments and the repossession fees the following morning.

First and foremost, Credit Acceptance has had my loan since I bought a XXXX XXXX XXXX with over 100,000 miles on it. I traded in a car my sister gave me and received a set amount from XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, N.Y. The trade in was the down payment and after the approval I was shocked to find a much higher price for the car at a higher rate than agreed to at the time of sale. My interest rate was never discussed until the very last minute and the signing process went too fast to properly go through the monthly fees.The payment came to {$390.00} per month. The sale price was {$13000.00}. They brought the total up to {$22000.00}, which is the price paid by XX/XX/XXXX.I had assistance with the car payments from several veteran organizations over the past 10 months since I was in/out of the hospital 4 times having a XXXX XXXX on my XXXX XXXX, XXXX to my XXXX & XXXX XXXX XXXX. I went back to work after each procedure to earn money to stay alive. The veteran 's groups helped me to get caught up and on a recorded line, the rep for CA said that I was current.The last help coming from the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, XXXX and the XXXX Unmet Needs program in XXXX, XXXX. I was still one month behind every month, no matter what I paid. I know that as a XXXX XXXX by trade, that I am allowed to record the phone call as long as the other parties were advised about the recording. The XXXX was on a recorded line with the rep for CA since they routinely record transactions made on behalf of veterans. I have a recording system in place for all business and I state that for every call that I record. Needless to say, the car was still behind and I landed a XXXX job as an XXXX XXXX for a large XXXX company. The man who brought me on XXXX, was called after CA cut me off again and demanded {$220.00} or they would not send me a signal to bypass the interruption device. He made a payment on my behalf to help me stay active. There were numerous interruptions by CA even after we made arrangements to make payments on a week to week basis. I tried to let them know if there was an issue with my pay, but they kept turning off the car. I am a XXXX and was being paid bi-weekly until I got to work for the company, who pays weekly. The problem with that is if I complete an inspection on a Monday and it is not reviewed that day or next, the job goes on the following weeks pay. The cut off for work is Wednesday, but the reviewers drag their XXXX and I do not see a full check until I have a good amount of work completed. I do get XXXX per mile for travel and submit my travel before Wednesday for all jobs that I schedule. The hurricane created a problem with communicating with the regional manager, the man who is in charge of assigning work and travel money. Much of the blame is on the weather, but I have not gotten a single response to my messages or email in 10 days. I was up against the wall on this and no matter how tough the situation is, CA does not care at all. They refuse to help and their actions result in people 's lives being altered due to lack of transportation. Their blatant refusal to work with people that are their core customer base is unheard of in this economy. On one hand, they give anyone financing, on the other, they add {$9000.00} to the cost of a relatively poor performing vehicle, knowing it will not last the term of the loan. They repo as many cars as they finance. How they lasted 45 years without being sanctioned by the government is beyond me. The courts in every state are filling up with lawsuits, not to mention that in my case, they are obstructing governmental administration and they are going to be sued by me. I am trying to re-finance my loan today and get away from them, the same as I did 10 years ago when I had the misfortune of having them as my lender. The car dealers will end up in the suit as well, but the U.S Govt really needs to do something about their predatory lending practices. The BBB gave them XXXX of a star and rates them lowest on their list of companies. I am thoroughly disgusted with the XXXX way the customer service pinheads act towards people in crisis mode. Normally I never wish harm to anyone, but I do hope these people go through the pain I went through. Nothing good will ever come from doing business with them. I will seek to make them suffer like so many out here. If the CEO or owners of the company were drowning, I would throw boulders at them to watch them go down like so many customers. No help is in site. No hope for a resolution. Only pain in the horizon. Keep praying for justice people.

On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX my sister ( XXXX XXXX ) and I went to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX to purchase a vehicle. We where dealing with a salesman named XXXX. We worked out a deal through credit acceptance was going to finance the car, which is a XXXX XXXX XXXX. They salesman named XXXX informed us we had been approved and we are now going over to finance to finish the deal. We over to finance did paperwork with a man named XXXX. As we were getting finished XXXX told us we still needed our bank statements, but we can still drive the car off the lot. He printed us a 2-temp tag and told us once you bring your bank statements back we can finish the deal and we will give you the 30-day. So XXXX took the statements back on XX/XX/XXXX. They told her there was an issue with her statement so she would need get print another copy and take it back. So on Saturday XX/XX/XXXX which was the day the 2-day tag expired we went back together to drop off her bank statement, they took the bank statement and told ok everything should be good on Monday we will call you. So I asked what about this tag it expires today, XXXX the salesman stated well as long as you do n't get pulled over you should be good. Everything will fall on us. So we left. I went home and I called back because that just did not sound right to me. I spoke with XXXX and asked her if we could get another temp tag or is there something else we can do, because I did n't feel comfortable with my sister driving around all weekend with an expired tag, her response was, it should be ok as long as you do n't get pulled over. So Sunday XX/XX/XXXX left the car parked in the driveway just to be safe. So Monday XX/XX/XXXX I called to XXXX XXXX to see if everything is ready as far as the tag the transferred me to a voicemail. I called back to talk to XXXX, they said he is with a customer. I continued several more times to call XXXX XXXX due to me being at work. No one would return my call or come to the phone. Then finally the lady XXXX called back, and said they talked to XXXX and the we just needed to come in and sign the rest of the paperwork to finalize the deal. So I went first when I got off of work at XXXX. Got there went to talk to XXXX who did the initial paperwork, and he walked me back over to the used dealer side and said the have your file over here. I asked him, Is everything ok? Did the deal not go through? He did n't answer my question he just said her sit here in this waiting area and Ill be right back, never came back I actually seen him walk out of a side door. So I waited about 30 minutes and then I walked towards the front, I saw XXXX to original salesman, and he said what is going on, I told him you tell me they called and told us to come back and now nobody knows anything. So he walked in the office and came back and said there was an issue with the bank statement and XXXX 's income so we cant do the deal you are going to have to return the car. So I called XXXX to bring the car to the lot. She brought the car back we talked to XXXX he claimed it was an income issue even with XXXX ' XXXX and my income. So returned the car and let the dealership on XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX I got an alert that there was new info added to my credit report. It is showing that we have an open loan with Credit acceptance for XXXX open on XX/XX/XXXX. So I called this company and they confirmed that it was opened for the XXXX XXXX XXXX. I explained what happened to the finance company. They told me the never heard anything from the dealer and that I need to contact the dealer to they can send over the proper paperwork to get this removed from My and XXXX credit report. I called could not get through to any on so I left a message. A XXXX XXXX called back we spoke about the issue on XXXX and he assured me that he would get in contact with the finance company to get everything corrected. I called back to the finance company on XX/XX/XXXX to confirm and the still told me they have not heard anything from XXXX XXXX. I called back to speak with XXXX and left a message. He returned my call a few hours later and that is when I asked him for documentation s well, his first response we have n't we already talked about this? I told yes but I need documentation as well. He took my email address and said he would get something sent over, I have yet to receive it. My complaint, is that this company was misleading, falsified information, and poor customer service. And now due to them false reporting on our credit report, it is hindering us from finding XXXX another car.

I purchased a car XXXX XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX XXXX located at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX. Car was financed threw Credit AcceptanceXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, the car was problematic from the very beginning. I was making the payment and had car insurance on car. However in XXXX of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX house that I worked at closed due to COVID. I did call Credit Acceptance due to being in a epedemic that was affecting the whole world I did not know when I would return to work. I asked for forbearance, lower payment or any relief that could be offered. I was told there was nothing could be done. I was unemployed and struggling going through extreme hardship. I again called Credit Acceptance to see could I return the car, I was told no. In XXXX a minor who was a passenger in car threw up all over the car, turned out he had XXXX, now making the car contaminated by XXXX. I did not park car in my garage out of fear of XXXX, I have a XXXX XXXXXXXX that I'm recovering from and did not want to jeopordize my health. I again called XXXX XXXX to see could they take mechanically problamatic car that was now XXXX contaminated. Again, I was told no. XXXX created an extreme financial and stressful hardship on me. In XX/XX/XXXX I did start a permanant job position and did start making car payments, however XXXX XXXX wanted me to pay on arrears, but I couldn't in XX/XX/XXXX while driving on highway along other cars going speed limit of XXXX mph the car abruptly stopped. The car abruptuly stopping created a very dangerous situation for me and other unknow parties on highway. XXXX XXXX towed XXXX to nearest repair shop. I than had to have car towed to my home from there. I called 6 diffrent auto repair shops and explained the situation all stated that if the timing chain broke it was 99.99 % probability engine was damaged. I again called XXXX XXXX and was told there was nothing I could do, I had bought and extended Maintenance contract on car they explained it had expired on XX/XX/XXXX. I was trying my hardest to get car repaired, I was unable to. middle of XX/XX/XXXX Credit Acceptance repossessed car while I was at work. I called Credit Acceptance and was told I needed close to {$1000.00} to get car out before it was auctioned off and I would be left still responsible for what was owed after car was sold. Credit Acceptance told me I had until the XXXX XXXX XXXX to try to get car out of We Reposses XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXXXXXX which is towing lot that towed car. I had to call towing place that had the car to make appointment to retrieve personal possesion., at appointment on XX/XX/XXXX I was given a box that contained all the personal possessions in car, due to car no longer being in their possession I was told by Staff at Towing Place that car had already being sent out for auction. This happened freguently where Credit Acceptance told me one thing and did another. My credit report states the balance on car as {$17000.00} however on Credit Acceptance statement it has balance of {$21000.00}. I have documentation from Credit Acceptance stating I have until XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX to get car out of possession because after that day it will be autioned off, when it had already being auctioned off end of XX/XX/XXXX. I at this point do not have a car, it's very difficult to get to my job that I desperatly need, and it is reflecting badly on my credit report making it impossible to buy another car. Now I'm being told that I will still have to pay the deficiency balance, that amount has not been figured out yet. However I was told that I would have to pay deficeniecy balance and it could come down to my wages being garnished. I am living paycheck to paycheck trying to get on my feet after all the health, financial and stressful hardship XXXX produced. I was never told the car was going to be sold or when. I'm reaching out to your organization due to wanting to get on my feet and not have this hardship continue. I never thought the car would give me such problems, I really thought Credit Acceptance would have lieniency while the world was going threw and epedemic. I'm hoping your organizition can give me relief, I'm very stressed, I can't sleep and my anxiety is threw the roof. I'm desperatly trying to hold on to my job. I have attached statement from Credit Acceptance stating after XX/XX/XXXX car would be sold, also Credit acceptance that shows balance of {$21000.00}.

I must inform you that the contract you have provided contains several red flags that may indicate fraudulent activity. As a consumer in a common law jurisdiction or a state XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX, i have certain rights that are protected by law. You have not provided how the car was taken in peace during repossession? And I have provided evidence on how it was not. You have not provided evidence on why you have inaccurate information on my credit account? If a repossession was not taken in peace, and there is no evidence to prove it was taken in peace was it really? Especially if I have provided physical evidence through photocopy to you via email, on how it was not done in peace. . the contract does not provide adequate information about the vehicle being sold. For example, there is no mention of the vehicle 's history, its condition, or any other relevant details. As a consumer, i have the right to receive accurate and complete information about the product you are purchasing, but this contract fails to provide that information. Lastly, the contract includes a clause that allows the seller to assign their rights and obligations under the contract to another party without my consent. This goes against the principle of mutual agreement, as I have no say in who the seller decides to transfer their rights and obligations to. The seller has been sending me improper redemption letter. here are some red flags that suggest the letter may not be in compliance with admiralty law jurisdiction or my jurisdiction of common law : 1. Lack of specific details : The letter does not provide any specific details about the vehicle being sold, such as its location, condition, or any other relevant information. This lack of transparency raises concerns about the legitimacy of the sale. 2. Inadequate disclosure : The letter does not provide a full disclosure of all the information pertaining to the vehicle, including its history, maintenance records, and any accidents or damage it has sustained. This failure to disclose important information could be seen as an attempt to hide potential defects or issues with the vehicle. 3. Unclear ownership : The letter mentions " Credit Acceptance Corporation '' as the entity selling the vehicle, but it does not provide clear evidence of their legal ownership or authority to sell the vehicle. Without proper documentation or proof of ownership, the sale may be considered invalid. 4. Threats of illegal action : The letter contains language threatening legal action against the debtor if they do not comply with the terms of the agreement. This could be seen as coercive or intimidating, and may violate applicable laws prohibiting abuse of process or unlawful threats. 5. Inconsistent formatting : The letter is written in a inconsistent format, with some sections using capital letters and others using lowercase. This lack of consistency could indicate a lack of professionalism or carelessness in drafting the document. 6. Missing signatures : The letter does not include signatures from any authorized representatives of Credit Acceptance Corporation, which could raise questions about the authenticity and validity of the document. 7. No reference to governing law : The letter does not specify the governing law under which the agreement was entered into or the sale is taking place. Failure to identify the applicable law could lead to confusion and disputes down the line. 8. Incomplete or missing information : The letter does not contain all the necessary information required by law to be included in a legally binding contract. For example, there is no mention of the purchase price, payment terms, or any other essential details. 9. Lack of accountability : The letter does not provide contact information. 10. Overall appearance of fraudulent activity : The letter contains several red flags that could suggest fraudulent activity, such as a hasty or uneven tone, vague language, or contradictory statements. These inconsistencies can make it challenging to determine the genuineness of the letter and the intentions of the party sending it. " I, Agent, XXXX XXXX for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, hereby declare that all obligations and agreements entered into with the seller are null and void due to fraudulent activity, and I demand full compensation for any emotional distress caused by DECEPTION by the seller 's,

Credit Acceptance does NOT have a CDCA license in Pennsylvania and therefore legally can not charge 21 % daily simple interest rate in PA. ( attached ) In brief, Pennsylvania law states .... Consumer Discount Company Act : 7 Pa. Stat. Ann. 6203 A lender who wishes to make loans in amounts less than {$25000.00} with interest rates greater than 6 % must be licensed under the CDCA. A licensed lender may make loans that are greater than the rate specified in the maximum interest rate law. ( 7 Pa. Stat. Ann. 6203. ). in the state of Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania has two usury statutes that govern the maximum interest rates that lenders may charge in the state : 1. The Loan Interest and Protection Law ( maximum interest rate law ) ( 41 Pa. Stat. Ann. 201 ). 2. The Pennsylvania Corrupt Organizations Act ( 18 Pa. Cons. Stat. 911 ( h ) ( 1 ) ( iv ) ). In addition, the Consumer Discount Company Act ( CDCA ) requires individuals who wish to make loans of {$25000.00} or less at interest rates higher than 6 % to obtain a license ( 7 Pa. Stat. Ann. 6203 ). The Pennsylvania Attorney General ( PA AG ) enforces the maximum interest rate statute and the Pennsylvania Corrupt Organizations Statute ( 41 Pa. Stat. Ann. 506 ; 18 Pa. Cons. Stat. 911 ( e ) ). The Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities enforces the maximum interest rate statute and the CDCA ( 41 Pa. Stat. Ann. 506 ; 7 Pa. Stat. Ann. 6212 ). Maximum Interest Rate Law : 41 Pa. Stat. Ann. 201 Lenders can not charge an annual interest rate greater than 6 % on consumer loans that are : 1. {$50000.00} or less, for secured and collateralized loans. 2. {$35000.00} or less for unsecured and non-collateralized loans. ( 41 Pa. Stat. Ann. 201. ) The 6 % usury rate does not apply to : Business loans ( 41 Pa. Stat. Ann. 201 ( b ) ). Residential mortgage loans ( 41 Pa. Stat. Ann. 301 ). A lender that violates this law : o May be required to pay a {$10000.00} fine for each offense ( 41 Pa. Stat. Ann. 505 ( b ) ). o May face a civil action from the borrower and be required to pay the borrower : three times the amount of the excess interest and charges ( 41 Pa. Stat. Ann. 502 ) ; and attorneys ' fees ( 41 Pa. Stat. Ann. 503. ) o Knowingly and intentionally may face third degree misdemeanor charges ( 41 Pa. Stat. Ann. 505 ( a ) ). Pennsylvania Corrupt Organizations Law : 18 Pa. Cons. Stat. 911 ( h ) ( 1 ) ( iv ) A lender can not charge an annual interest rate of 25 % or more on a loan. A person who violates that provision is considered to have engaged in racketeering activity and may face first degree felony charges. ( 18 Pa. Cons. Stat. 911 ( c ), ( h ) ( 1 ) ( v ). ) I have attached what Credit Acceptances " Simple Interest '' methodology. At the end of the loan i will have paid 189 % interest ontop of the principal. Meaning a XXXX loan I am paying 23K+ which is ghastly for a XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have asked to refinance, I have asked to pay off early. I was told they are " A second chance loan '' and basically I do not have the same rights as any other civilian who took a " normal '' loan. I feel that Credit Acceptance preys on consumers trying to restore their credit. They state on their website that 52 % of borrowers are a " sublime '' loan group. Hence, they did their research and clearly created a product to lock you in not caring that the vehicles that fall under this program are high mileage and old. The dealer that i bought vehicle thru closed within a week after purchase. Even though he told me my interest was 16.5 %, and after a year I could refinance, and that I could also make extra payments a month to put directly onto principal. This is all denied by Credit Acceptance. I believe the dealer lied to me to make the sale because they knew they were closing and could careless. Granted this is about Credit Acceptance, they are illegally charging high interest rate loans in a deplorable manor. My second complainant with Credit Acceptance is harassment to collect payment under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act. If your payment has not reached their office by their due date. The start to call every phone number they have from a little before XXXX XXXX EST up to XXXX EST seven days a week, multiple times a day with a minimum of 3 calls. One it is illegal to call before XXXX and after XXXX and on Sundays. They have collected on interest, fees.

As a consumer who is constantly mindful of my credit and payment for debts owed, I am deeply troubled by a communication dispute that has unfairly damaged my credit standing by nearly 70 points for the next seven ( 7 ) years. I have a loan with Credit Acceptance Corporation that began In XXXX of XXXX when I purchased a XXXX XXXX from a used car dealer. Two months later, in XXXX of XXXX, I signed up for Credit Acceptance Corporation 's auto-pay service, to assure prompt payments. Even though I had auto-pay, each month I received unnecessary mail from Credit Acceptance about the bill, advertising material, and offers. A year later, in XX/XX/XXXX, I called Credit Acceptance asking to GO PAPERLESS. They said they don't have Paperless. I replied that I don't need paper bills or offers from the company since I'm on auto-pay. The representative responded that they could stop communication, but I never had any understanding that I would never be notified under any circumstances. Late last summer ( XXXX ), I misplaced my ATM card at home. I phoned the bank asking to put a hold on it until I found it. XXXX insisted that the card be canceled. Though I found the card the next morning, the card was canceled. It was an otherwise minor event but could haunt me for the next 7 years. THIS IS GROSSLY UNFAIR. In XXXX of XXXX, when my ATM number didn't allow the payment to be pulled from my bank account, Credit Acceptance did nothing, and in XXXX they reported me as 30 days delinquent. This caused my CREDIT SCORE TO PLUMMET BY 70 POINTS. I found out from a credit reporting service I subscribe to and I quickly called Credit Acceptance and promptly paid them, as I have each month of the loan. Because the auto-pay was set up over a year back, I thought it pulled directly from my bank account, not through my ATM card. When I contacted Credit Acceptance Corporation, asking that they reverse the 30 days late on my credit reports, because they never notified me that the auto-payment did not pull from my bank account, they replied that on XX/XX/XXXX, I had requested a " Cease and Desist '' order, which I had never heard of. They can see that I'd never missed a payment, which is proof of the fact that it happened in error. After some online research, I learned that this " cease & desist, '' is usually used when a customer has a dispute with a company and the customer feels legally abused. In this case, why would someone with no problems with a company ask for a Cease & Desist order? I only wanted to go PAPERLESS and it has caused tremendous difficulty. Over the past 7 months, I have constantly reached out to Credit Acceptance, and to the 3 bureaus, only to be rebuffed by CreditAcceptance and given the " party line '' that I asked for no contact ( which I DID NOT ). This is a HUGE misunderstanding and the company 's policy should immediately be changed. Paperless and Never Contact me, are two grossly different requests. They must be decoupled in the Credit Acceptance rules & regs. This is a disservice to the company 's customers. Asking to be paperless is recommended in most company 's rules. A rule stating if you want to be paperless, the only option you have is to never be contacted under any circumstances is frankly asinine. What conscious corporation doesn't have a paperless option? Collaterally, I just re-signed up for automatic payment today, and their automated telephone payment services instructions state that you are signing up for notices and disclosures, which goes against their avowed " Cease & Desist '' rule, which I never asked for. I am asking once again, in the spirit of goodwill, for a customer who never missed a payment, please remove this 'error in communication caused, ' blemish from my credit report with the three bureaus. Certainly, Senator XXXX XXXX 's vision for Consumer Protection did not have this kind of outcome in mind. Rather than protect this consumer, Credit Acceptance is harming me, for no clear reason. Credit Acceptance employees are only following the Company 's rules, but these rules need immediate decoupling. WHY DON'T THEY OFFER PAPERLESS?! This is an ongoing nightmare. PLEASE HELP me TO GET THIS UNDESERVED NEGATIVE MARK OFF MY CREDIT REPORT. Thank you, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX cc : Senator XXXX XXXX Mr. XXXX XXXX, CEO Credit Acceptance Corporation New Jersey Senator XXXX XXXX

I obtained a vehicle at XXXX. I was financed at a 22.99 % through Credit Acceptance. After paying almost XXXX, I was advised that I still owe almost XXXX. To my horror, I did not realize that financing was almost at 50 % with Credit Acceptance until My vehicle was hit while it was parked. Insurance paid almost XXXX towards the vehicle and I was waiting for the Gap Insurance to take care of the remaining balance. During this time, I spoke to over 25 representatives who never advised me that Gap Insurance does not cover pass due balances. This drag out over a period of two months where more than 2 payments were missed while waiting for Gap Coverage. Once Gap Insurance was paid, they only paid about XXXX leaving another balance on the loan. Credit Acceptance failed to update my Credit with accurate information. I continued to callback and once this was paid was when I was advised that Gap Insurance does not pay past due balances. I called to advised the Representative at Credit Acceptance that this seems like unfair practices as out of the 25 representatives I spoke to, no one ever offered me a payment plan during this entire ordeal. I was blindsided at how they purposely withheld information from the consumer. I was concerned with getting my balance paid off since I paid extra to have Gap Insurance for those unfortunate incidences that may occur in life. Out of all the questions I asked to insure that they claim was paid off by Gap Insurance, I don't understand why this information was withheld when as a consumer. I spoke to XXXX in the Insurance Department at Credit Acceptance who is a Senior Specialist on XX/XX/21 at XXXX Central Time. She advised that the only notes that it shows on my Account is that I called regarding Gap Insurance and does not have any additional notes. I advised her that I was not advised by any of the representatives that Gap doesn't cover past due payments that were accrued prior to Gap Closing. I advised that I find that the representatives are unprofessional and do the minimal work and that is why I am having this dilemma on this account. I requested to speak to another Supervisor due to her condescending tone and nature. I spoke to XXXX who is a Senior Specialist in the Insurance Department who advised that I still had a balance on the account. When asked what the remaining balance on the account was, he advised he could not give me that information as the account had been transferred to a different department. This is just one of the instances of how Credit Acceptance Representatives manage Customers Accounts and why I and so many other consumers have fell victim to the Unfair Practices at Credit Acceptance. I spoke to XXXX in the Collection Department at Credit Acceptance as well who also would not make any adjustment to the account based upon the term. I believe that Credit Acceptance is taking advantage of people who have less that perfect credit. I am not sure of the State or Federal Statues regarding financing individuals but somehow this company is getting away with financing individuals at almost 50 % - 65 % of the vehicle that they purchased. I know it seems like they have dotted all their i 's and crossed all their t 's, but as a consumer how our we getting sucked into these type of situations without it being required to put the information in writing that the Consumer can understand versus a whole stack of paper the dealer wants you to read through during closing? I believe there should be some type of class action lawsuit where consumers who have experienced this same type of horror with Credit Acceptance can have some justice. My experience was around XXXX and not only was I a great customer who made all my payments on-time prior to someone hitting my car, but I was a customer who wanted to ensure that I did everything possible to ensure this loan was paid off. I paid XXXX in 2 years and they still carried over the APR on the loan for the 5 year term. How are they able to charge APR for 5 years for a contract that only went 2.5 years? There is something very wrong with Credit Acceptance business practices and I would like to know how they are able to do business where they are able to charge twice for a car and collect the full APR on a contract without fulfilling the entire contract?

Per the FCRA as a federally protected consumer I am now opting out of any and all authorization I the consumer may have given you written, non written, verbal, and non verbal per 15 USC 6802. Credit Acceptance can not collect on a discharged debt. This is now considered a certificate of indebtedness per the IRS and income can not be reported. In Credit Acceptance terms and conditions they agreed not to share my information with non affiliates. XXXX is not an affiliate of Credit Acceptance. The only true credit bureau is the CFPB and they DO NOT furnish consumer reports. Credit Acceptance must refund the remaining balance of the consumer account upon its termination.

Affidavit of Truth There is abundant evidence that Credit Acceptance uses abusive, deceptive, and unfair debt collection practices in an effort to destroy the emotional and mental health of a consumer. Furthermore through your abusive efforts and immoral intent, you trick possible creditors with reporting tactics to consumer reporting agencies. Tarnishing a natural person/consumer character, making them seem as if they lack credit worthiness and character. Pursuing 15 USC 1602 the term credit means the rate granted by a creditor to a debtor to defer payment or debt or to incur debt and defer its payment. Credit is a right, like the right to bear arms. Credit acceptance with your extortionate, false and misleading debt collection practices I can and will prove that your main intent is to punish me for nonpayment, because I was able to expose consumer violations the following : Truth in Lending violations, Fair Credit Reporting Act Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and Title 18 Chapter 41 Extortion and Threats. Over the past year credit acceptance, you managed to re-aged my consumer report 4-5 different times in an effort to report negative, false misleading information over a longer period of time. Credit Acceptance notified me in writing, that my payment of {$1100.00}, to retrieve my vehicle after the XXXX repo in XX/XX/2022, automatically reinstated my contract. Meaning, re-aged my consumer report for further negative abusive and extortionate purposes. Your purpose was to punish men for none payment after I exposed XXXX violations found in your installments contract. I have documentary evidence to prove that all. Credit Acceptance your extortionate intent was clear to start. You intentionally ignored Fair Credit Reporting Act directives. 15 USC 1681c ( c ) Requirements relating to information contained in consumer reports, clearly and adequately acknowledges a 180-day expiration period on reporting of delinquent accounts. My consumer report reads as follows, 30 days late 5 times, 60 days 1 time, 90 late days 5 times, thats a total of 660 days! For an additional, 480 extra days Credit Acceptance was committed to the following, negatively effecting 'my right to credit, destroying my credit worthiness, arrogantly refusing to address my injuries by them, bully me, the consumer/natural person, invade my privacy and demand payments after financing extortionate extensions of credit. The only way to do that was re-age my consumer report, pursuant 15 U.S.C 1681s-2 ( 5 ) ( A ) Responsibilities of furnishers of information to consumer reporting agencies a person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate. A person who furnishes information to a consumer reporting agency regarding a delinquent account being placed for collection, charged to profit or loss, or subjected to any familiar action, shall not later than 90 days after furnishing the information, notify the agency of the date of delinquency on the account, which shall be the month and year of the commencement of the delinquency on that immediately preceded the action, pursuant 15 U.S.C 1681s-2 ( 5 ) ( A ). Credit Acceptance I demand my right to rescind this transaction, I notified you of my right to do so over 60 days ago. After notification of my right to rescind this transaction, pursuant 15 U.S.C. 1635 Right of rescission as to certain transactions, you responded with letterhead saying you refused to rescind the transaction without explanation as to why? By refusing my right ; request you violated federal consumer by not doing and not clearly conspicuously disclosing my right in our initial communication. I immediately respond with proof that Credit Acceptance is in the business of Financing extortionate extensions of credit, with this affidavit I have also proven your collection practices are extortionate also, pursuant the following 18 U.S.C. 893 Financing extortionate extensions of credit, 18 U.S.C. 894 Collection of extensions of credit by extortionate means and 18 U.S.C. 1341 Frauds and swindles. I have notified the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, XXXX XXXX XXXX Fair Trade Commission. XXXX XXXX

I have been disputing my credit report account information as inaccurate and reporting errors with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I found out about the alleged debt when it was to late. I did not have any knowledge nor did I receive any notifications of the alleged debt. XXXX removed all errors and inaccurate information. XXXX and XXXX are still reporting errors and inaccurate information. Ive contacted both credit bureaus XXXX Credit Bureau and XXXX Credit Bureau numerous of times and disputed those errors and inaccurate information thats remaining on my credit report. Ive also asked them to validate the debt, both credit bureaus have come back to me and stated they were able to verify and validate this debt. How is this possible? Under the laws of the FDCPA, I have contacted both collection agencies myself and have been unable to get them to verify that this is indeed my debt with physical documentation. XXXX is also is reporting errors and incorrect information with the creditor Credit Acceptance Corporation as in late payments. I was never late on this account. I have disputed this error and inaccurate information and I have asked XXXX to validate the account by sending me physical documentation as in the original signed contract bearing my signature including the amount of the monthly payment and the monthly payment due date, copies of the original cashed checks used for bill payment including the dates, bank statements showing my payments including the dates. The dates of the alleged late payments are as follows XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX through XXXX of XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX is reporting the following for the creditor Credit Acceptance : Date Opened XX/XX/XXXX, Monthly Payment {$0.00}, Responsibility Joint Account, Account Type Installment Account, Loan Type AUTOMOBILE, Balance {$0.00} Date Updated XX/XX/XXXX, Payment Received {$2500.00}, Last Payment Made XX/XX/XXXX, High Balance {$20000.00}, Pay Status Current Account, Terms {$0.00} per month, paid Monthly for 66 months, Date Closed XX/XX/XXXX, Remarks CLOSED. Please validate or remove from credit I'm sure you are aware of the provisions in the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). However, I would like to point out that your firm has violated provisions of the FDCPA by implying that the legal status of the debt is collectible by reporting the alleged debt to the credit bureaus. The exact statute : [ 15 USC 1692e ] ( 2 ) The false representation of -- ( A ) the legal status of the alleged debt and ( B ) any services rendered or compensation which may be lawfully received by any debt collector for the collection of a debt. I am also doubtful that you would have adequate documentation to prove in court that you have the right to report this negative information on my credit report, and therefore you are in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act as well as the FDCPA. However, I will give you the chance to prove that you are lawfully entitled to report this information by requesting an investigation. Under the FDCPA I am also invoking my right to ask you to stop contacting me unless you can provide adequate validation of this alleged debt or notification that you are ceasing collections activities. Please remove this account immediately from my credit report or I will have to take legal remedies which may include lawsuits and notifying our state attorney general 's office. In addition, I'm sure your legal staff will agree that non-compliance with this request could put your company in serious legal trouble with the FTC and other state or federal agencies. Under the FCRA and the FDCPA, each violation is subject to a {$1000.00} fine, payable to me. As per the FCRA, only accurate and timely information may be listed on my credit report. Section 609 of the FCRA gives me the right to see what Credit Acceptance the furnisher sent to the credit reporting agency XXXX as evidence or any physical documentation that the information is correct. The information needs to be verifiable, so if its not, it should be removed from my credit report.

On XX/XX/2021, I certified mailed Credit Acceptance notice of rescind, pursuant to 12 CFR 1026.23 ( a ), Credit Acceptance received the letter on XX/XX/2021. On XX/XX/2021 @ XXXX pm XXXX from the compliance department called me regarding notice of rescind directed to XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX asking me what my demands were or what is it that I wanted. I informed her that I was giving my notice to rescind the credit transaction due to the failure of proper disclosure upon signing the contract, as well as letting her know I have security interest in the contract, and I want to exercise my right to rescind the transaction. I also informed her that I wanted the security interested terminated 12 CFR 1026.23 ( d ) ( 1 ), as well as ALL money refunded back to me, 12 CFR 1026.23 ( d ) ( 2 ). Once the right of rescission becomes void, I will not be liable for any amount, including finance charge, pursuant to 12 CFR 1026.23 ( d ) ( 1 ). After the call XXXX informed me, she would get with the legal team and call me back on the following Monday, which was supposed to be, Monday XX/XX/2021, but I did not receive a call from XXXX until today XX/XX/2021 @ XXXX am. I contacted XXXX shortly have her missed, hoping Credit Acceptance would meet my demands pursuant 12 CFR 1026.23 ( d ), instead according to XXXX and the legal team, concluded after an alleged internal investigation that I was given the proper disclosures and Credit Acceptance contract met all state and federal laws. She informed me that they found through their investigation that I was given the appropriate disclosure associated with my contract and that it is bonding and lawful. When I asked her how Credit Acceptance investigated their finding that I was given proper disclosures, was it through XXXX, XXXX, or XXXX, XXXX informed me that we didnt find in our investigation that we were obligated to research that. So now the question remains How did Credit Acceptance do a thorough investigation if theyre not obligated to ensure proper disclosures were given to consumers? She stated that I signed a declaration of electronic signature than later stated I DID NOT sign a declaration of electronic signature agreement, but I actually signed a paper contract with the dealer. Which leads me believe that an alleged thorough investigation was completed, because she wouldve known that information off hand. I also informed her that I wanted to original copy of my contract with my wet signature, and she informed me that the dealership has that copy and not Credit Acceptance. I had to remind XXXX when I spoke with her on Friday, XX/XX/2021, that I was exercising my right to rescind my cancel transaction pursuant to 12 CFR 1026.23 ( a ) not disputing the contract, as the contract is between Credit Acceptance and XXXX XXXX not me. She then asked, what is it that I wanted or my demands and I explain to her my demands thoroughly, pursuant to 12 CFR 1026.23 ( d ), nothing additional or nothing less than what the federal law requires when such law has been exercised. Instead of Credit Acceptance acknowledging federal law she informed me that this is the ONLY way for them to respond to this alleged right of rescission. ( By doing an investigation ). After XXXX made that statement, I informed XXXX that once a consumer exercise their right of rescind the security interest is automatically negated regardless of its status and whether or not it was recorded or perfected pursuant to 12 CFR 1026.23 ( d ) ( 1 ). Nothing else was mentioned about the right of rescission besides her stating this is our finding. This only leaves me with several questions about Credit Acceptance. Is Credit Acceptance exempt from Federal Law? Does Credit Acceptance not have to comply with federal regulations? Does Credit Acceptance not have to follow Truth-In-Lending Regulations Z? Is Credit Acceptance exempt from complying with the effect for rescission, pursuant to 12 CFR 1026.23 ( d ) ( 1 )? If all of those questions are NO, then why XXXX is making such statements to me that Credit Acceptance only way to respond to an alleged right of rescind is to do a thorough investigation.

I have been contact with Credit Acceptance Corporation disputing the transaction on a vehicle that was Repoed a XXXX XXXX XXXX. CAC have been in violation of this whole transaction when they took on this " Assignment ''. When I went to purchase the vehicle XXXX XXXX XXXX informed me that Credit Acceptance Corporation was requesting a cash down payment of {$3500.00} in order to proceed with purchasing the vehicle. I gave a cash down payment of {$3500.00}. According to TILA ( TRUTH IN LENDING ACT ) when there a finance charge in connection with a consumer credit transaction there should be no comingling. The finance charge does not include charges of a type payable in a comparable cash transaction. In the Retail instalment contract it states that IN FINE PRINT, " you may buy the vehicle described below for CASH or CREDIT, YOU HAVE AGREED TO BUY THE VEHICLE FROM US ON CREDIT FOR THE TOTAL SALE PRICE. '' So there is not suppose to be no cash involved. When I began learning about consumer laws, I addressed CAC about this cash down payment CAC stated that they did not ask for a down payment which the dealership was misleading, but according to the " contract '' since it was assigned to Credit Acceptance it states that the holder of the contract is subject to all claims and defenses. Credit acceptance accepted the instalment " contract with all terms and they acted in bad faith when they took on the assignment knowing that down payments are illegal. Which the contract was breached before I left the lot with the vehicle. I was not given any disclosures about the right to reject arbitration. and I made an uniformed decision because no one disclosed it to me. In addition, Credit acceptance is in violation of the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, no one was ever clear and conspicuous about my right to privacy and how I can exercise my rights as pursuant to 15 USC 6802, and according to 15 USC 6803, as long as I am customer with them every year Credit acceptance are supposed to send me out disclosures about my right to privacy and a declaration form if I want to opt out of information sharing of my non public personal information. I have never received this from them. That is straight up fraud and identity theft. My information has been shared without my consent by Credit Acceptance. Again, the contract has been breached. They did not disclose what the finance charge covers. When they repoed the vehicle they breached the peace, they removed the vehicle from my neighborhood defaming my character and embarrassing me. Again, I have the right to privacy, and my neighbors assumed I was having a financial hardship, that is no ones business. CAC committed XXXX and grand theft auto. Credit Acceptance also violated and breached contract when they did not send me repo information, redemption information, intent to auction vehicle not even giving me the chance to redeem it. That information was never mailed to me, and I have proof that it was not mailed to me. Credit acceptance filed a suit against me stating in their claim that they are the creditors, according to the FDCPA 15 usc 1692a ( 4 ) The term creditor means any person who offers or extends credit creating a debt or to whom a debt is owed, but such term does not include any person to the extent that he receives an assignment or transfer of a debt in default solely for the purpose of facilitating collection of such debt for another. This debt was assigned to credit acceptance so they are a debt collector. Misleading me is a against the law. I want CAC to show me proof that they were the ones that gave me a loan and I am requesting the original account ledger. There are so many other violations. My objective is for credit acceptance provide me with everything I am requesting and I am requesting my down payment back and all the payments I made for this vehicle. I believe its equivalent to about {$15000.00} dollars. I am requesting a check back from this company immediately. If I cant get remedy here or cant come to a common ground. I am filing a federal lawsuit immediately. I will have all and more proof for that event.

In XXXX of 2019, I purchased my own vehicle from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, CA and conducted business with XXXX XXXX XXXX and his wife XXXX XXXX ( Owners ). All went well and I left with my car. In XXXX of 2019, I referred my daughter 's father to the same car lot for his own car purchase, in a good faith attempt to return business to what I thought to be a solid car lot as appreciation for my own smooth car purchase. Later in the month, I get an alert that my name had been added on to a joint car loan agreement for the purchase of my daughter 's father 's car as a co-signor. I attempted to contact XXXX XXXX and his wife to inquire as to why my name had been added on to the agreement, as I was not present for the purchase of his vehicle nor was I a party to his loan agreement. My only involvement in anything having to do with that situation was the simple verbal referral I had provided to my daughter 's father and his mother prior to their purchase of his vehicle. Upon trying to contact XXXX and his wife, I was met with aggressive and threatening messages telling me that I am not involved in the purchase of the agreement and that I am harassing them with my inquiries. My inquiries were only regarding seeking an answer as to why my name had been added to the purchase agreement/loan for his car when I did not authorize my consent to be added on as a co-signor to any car loan other than my own. From that point on, I was not contacted by anyone again after numerous phone calls to speak with someone about having my name taken off the car loan agreement that I never agreed to be added to. Other than in XXXX of 2019 when I purchased my own vehicle, I had not been back to that lot for anything whatsoever and should never have had my name added on to a financial agreement without being physically present for any transactions involving money or without physically providing my signature with the car salesman as a third party witness. I was never present for any business agreements or financial arrangements or even the overall purchase of the vehicle that I was added on as a co-signor for. My attempts to contact the car lot went unsuccessful and I found out shortly after that that the car lot had been shut down for multiple lawsuits involving other consumers suing for bad/fraudulent business practices and breech of contract. When I contact the loan originator for the vehicle ( CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION ) to request being removed from the fraudulent loan agreement they claim that they have a signed document that consented for the car lot who submitted the car paperwork at the time of purchase that authorized their use of my " ELECTRONIC SIGNATURE '' which I never signed for this car loan. If there is a signature there, it was added fraudulently by XXXX XXXX and his wife at the time of the purchase for this car, as I was not present for any dealings with this car agreement. I have requested they furnish a copy of this agreement to me multiple times with no correspondence and no copy of the document substantiating my agreement to this loan and refuse to remove me from the agreement. I have contacted the credit bureaus and provided my identity theft reports and had the line item removed from my report for all but 1 reporting agency who I am in dispute with now. I just want my name removed from this account as I never agreed nor authorized anyone from either company to use my signature to be added on as a co-signor or joint account. XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX is no longer an operating business as they were shut down and forced to close due to multiple lawsuits involving bad business/fraudulent business practices. Credit Acceptance Corporation refuses to work with me and remove my name from this loan after numerous attempts to contact their fraud/complaint department and provide information regarding this fraudulent loan XXXX Credit Bureau hasn't removed this account from my credit report after numerous disputes providing substantiating evidence and documentation of the issue and proof that the account does not belong to me.

On XX/XX/XXXX I filed a claim with my Insurer, XXXX, for storm related damages to the roof of my XXXX XXXX XXXX that is financed with Credit Acceptance Corporation. During the claims process I was advised that the check would include my name & Credit Acceptance Corporation name on it. On XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX I placed a call to XXXX for Credit Acceptance and the call lasted 9 Minutes 56 seconds. During this time, I spoke to a rep in their insurance department and advised I would NOT be repairing my vehicle and that I wanted the check to be applied as a principal payment to lower the loan balance as well as the daily interest I was paying. The representative provided me an email of XXXX to send the estimate of damages and the mailing address of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX MI XXXX to send the check with my endorsed signature. On XX/XX/XXXX I called Credit Acceptance back at XXXX XXXX for a phone call lasting 7 Minutes 42 Seconds advising my adjuster informed me the payment after my {$100.00} deductible would be {$910.00}. I again advised that I was not going to repair the vehicle and that I wanted the payment applied as a principal ONLY payment to pay down the loan balance and lessen my daily interest. On XX/XX/XXXX I received the check from XXXX, signed it and went to my local XXXX XXXX to mail it. I paid {$11.00} to have the check expedited to Credit Acceptance Corporation so it could adequately reflect on my account as soon as possible. On XX/XX/XXXX I called Credit Acceptance Corporation for a phone call lasting 4 Minutes 50 seconds during which time I advised I had just mailed the check. I provided the representative in the insurance department with the XXXX tracking and AGAIN confirmed I wanted the check applied as a principal ONLY payment once received to lessen the balance of my loan as well as the daily interest. On XX/XX/XXXX Credit Acceptance received the check in their possession around XXXX according to the delivery confirmation with XXXX for tracking number # XXXX. I checked throughout the day and did not see my balance lessened. I assumed the system had a 24 hour cycle before it was updated. On XX/XX/XXXX I called Credit Acceptance Corporation for a call lasting 11 Minutes 55 Seconds. I advised the representative that the check was delivered on XX/XX/XXXX and still had not been applied to my loan as a principal only payment. The representative acted as if this was the first time hearing of my request. After putting me on quite an extended hold, she came back and advised she put a request to finance to have this updated. She advised it could take more than 3 business days for this to be resolved. On XX/XX/XXXX I logged into my account on CreditAcceptance.com and noticed that my current balance had been reduced, a payment POSTED on XX/XX/XXXX ( NOT XX/XX/XXXX WHEN THEY RECEIVED IT!!!!!!!! ) Was reflected for {$910.00}. The check also posted towards my XX/XX/XXXX bill. Prior to XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX showed a balance due of {$150.00} On XX/XX/XXXX I called Credit Acceptance and spoke with XXXX ( NOW I am saving the names of the reps! ) I requested a copy of my payment history from her to be emailed. Upon receiving this payment history, I noticed the the payment was not applied as a principal only payment and was not backdated to the date received. On XX/XX/XXXX I made a payment of {$150.00} which should have brought my principal balance down to {$5000.00}. The insurance check was received the same day, the principal should have been brought down to {$4100.00} and it should not have been applied towards any payments. With a 22.99 % interest rate, the daily rate on {$5000.00} is {$3.00} per day versus {$4100.00} which is {$2.00} per day. I have kept an XXXX spreadsheet of my loan balance since the day I purchased it. I used to work for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX as their insurance coordinator and would have never acted so negligently on behalf of one of our customers. I do not work at CAP, I should not have to invest this much energy ensuring their employees are handling my loan properly!

XX/XX/2023 XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX : Request for Assistance in Rectifying Credit Report Inaccuracies Dear Sir/Madam, I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to seek your support and intervention regarding a matter of significant concern related to my credit report accuracy. Considering the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, I find myself in a distressing situation that has affected my financial well-being and, subsequently, my credit history. The events leading up to my financial hardship began with a severe car accident that left me incapacitated and unable to continue my employment as an XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX. Subsequently, the pandemic worsened my difficulties, causing a loss of income that made it increasingly challenging to meet my monthly car payments. I took the initiative to communicate my financial predicament promptly to Credit Acceptance CorpXXXX, the lender associated with my auto loan, in hopes of finding a solution to my circumstances. Regrettably, I was informed that the lender lacked a pandemic forgiveness program or payment deferral options, and I was advised to make good faith payments as a minimum. Despite my insistent efforts to manage my situation, matters took a turn for the worse. The looming threat of car repossession due to delinquency prompted undue pressure from Credit Acceptance Corp. During this challenging time, a collector 's unprofessional action led to the revocation of my good faith payment plan and the imposition of an abrupt ultimatum to settle the entire delinquent amount, ultimately resulting in the repossession of my car. In a desperate undertaking to regain possession, I was forced to borrow funds from multiple family members to meet the sudden payment demand. What followed was a persistent struggle to rectify inaccuracies in the credit reporting process. Despite being assured that my payment history would be accurately updated once the delinquent amount was settled, discrepancies were evident in the reporting provided by XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. I promptly raised my concerns with these credit agencies, only to be informed that the lender, Credit Acceptance Corp., retained the authority to address these discrepancies. Furthermore, my attempts to dispute the inaccuracies via their own Dispute mail-in form, directly with Credit Acceptance Corp. were met with denial. Even after successfully resolving the past-due amount, my ordeal continued. Efforts to negotiate unwarranted late fees that were attached to subsequent on-time payments proved futile, as Credit Acceptance Corp. maintained a policy of imposing these fees, attributing them to prior delinquency. This practice has perpetuated my financial distress and perpetually affects my credit report, despite my commitment to honoring payments on time. I am reaching out to the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX with the sincere hope that you can intervene in this matter to ensure the accuracy and fairness of my credit report. I kindly request your support in advocating for the proper reflection of my timely payments and the rectification of inaccuracies that are unfairly tarnishing my credit history. Your intervention would go a long way in assisting me to rebuild my financial stability during these trying times. Enclosed with this letter, please find relevant documentation substantiating my claims, including records of payment history cited from the Credit Acceptance Corp. website, and receipts, and should you require medical documentation of my injury, I can provide it along with the Law firm contact information who represented me during my injury case. I am more than willing to provide any additional information or documents you may require facilitating the resolution of this matter. Thank you for taking the time to review my situation. I sincerely hope for a positive resolution that would alleviate my financial distress and help restore my credit report 's accuracy. Your assistance in this regard would mean a great deal to me, and I eagerly await your response. Respectfully, XXXX

My credit score was at XXXX in XXXX, but as of XX/XX/XXXX it dropped immensely down to XXXX, i didn't understand why. I called the XXXX Headquarters first to inquire what was going on, she walked me through to log in an see my credit report, there i saw among other creditors " Credit Acceptance Inc '' ( regarding the car I am currently paying on each month ) had X 's XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX ; which indicate according to the Chart marked as UNKNOWN. I do recall a time where i had called Credit Acceptance concerned about missing a payment due to this crazy Covid19 going on, but i managed to pull off the payment and make it anyway. And have continued to pay this lender ea month on time without any problem. What i couldn't understand was why the X 's?, So i dug up all my bank statements from XXXX XXXX and XXXX, all put together showed I paid from XXXX up to XX/XX/XXXX on time and they all cleared. I immediately contacted the XXXX of Michigan as this creditor was based out of this state and informed them of their error, I made the huge mistake of giving my number out, i never gave this bank " Credit Acceptance '' my number because just knowing from a few phone calls with them, their reps came across as squirrely and aloof, it wouldn't be long before they would begin calling my phone, and i surely was never giving my job number out cause i didn't need their goofiness calling them and getting me into serious trouble, they had my email address for contact if they ever needed to reach me, that was good enough - so i thought but it wasn't. XX/XX/XXXX i made a complaint with the XXXX of Michigan about these X 's marked as UNKNOWN payments, which i can back up easily, when the XXXX. called my phone i was XXXX behind the XXXX of an XXXX XXXX, not cool at all, i cant be discussing a problem they created taking my focus of the road, XXXX was responsible for causing this. Yes I roared at them for doing it, chewed them up and spit them out. The next thing i know is, i get a message from XXXX supposedly having an answer of explanation of the XXXX XXXX X 's in payments showing, what they had sent was this copy of an electronical contract i had signed with XXXX XXXX in XXXX Wisconsin when i bought the XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX where i was charged XXXX XXXX dollars, pretty stiff if you ask me for 9 yr old car that i have had to pour money into for repairs. My response to this ignorant act was simple, The contract had nothing to do with them not recording payment as usually its marked with an OK over Green background. I responded rudely back telling bother parties that this contract was irrelevant to the payments marked UNKNOWN with an X, it was like throwing it up in my face what i had agreed too. Duh! I get an email back from a XXXX ( assuming this was from XXXX. ) apologizing for calling my phone or giving out my number. Any hoo I have photo copies of the Credit Report which to this day they have not corrected and i don't see them doing so. So I am withholding any further payment, covid19 response or not, i still managed to make the payments per agreement however they chose not to keep the reporting up right. And here i am on my 10 hour break when i should be resting, writing a complaint to another possible dead end. So i am going to make this EZ. Just have them come get the car and mark me as DEFAULT, DONT TRUST, BAD INVESTMENT XXXX XXXX XXXX, i dont care at this point, Id rather save up and Pay in full for a new car without all this XXXX. All this car has done is cost me money in repairs from 2 new batteries drained dry in less then a year, a new alternator, heater coils cleaned out to receive heat to defrost and warm the car, engine problems, clogged gas throat problems which prevented gas entering into the tank, that had to be cleared out, what i ended up buying was a sick car in need of more repairs then its worth of XXXX grand which these cars are not worth XXXX grand! So with that said the following info is yours do what ever i'm walking away from this kindergarten game being played.

Since XXXX of XXXX I have been filing over 5-10 complaints of issues with your assistance and its been marginal progress as of today. Just recently I received resolution or investigation completions of my reporting of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and Credit Acceptance Corporation. Separate or attached complaints will be completed. Credit Acceptance corporation filed a lawsuit against me in XXXX in XXXX due to me returning XXXX or XXXX XXXX XXXX that they sold at a loss without providing terms of sale. Default judgement was entered in XXXX without my knowledge. Lawsuit was dismissed or cancelled due to it being included in XXXX - Chapter XXXX filing that was discharged around XX/XX/XXXX. Issue is that anything after the lawsuit is charged off and it stops reporting because it's no longer an active account. Since the bankruptcy these two companies have updated and included more predatory information other than the account was included in bankruptcy. They have monthly activity for a closed or charged off account, I think that's counter-intuitive, legal or ethical practice. It's intentional and predatory and should be illegal, if not already so. Additionally, from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX they updated Failed to Pay - FP - but for the month of my Chapter XXXX filing they have negative - N. I would like the account deleted because since my initial complaints since XX/XX/XXXX they have not acted in an ethical and fair manner probably in accordance with the FCRA, stress being placed on " FAIR ''. XXXX XXXX acknowledges that the account in now in bankruptcy, however my initial complaints inclusive of your organization have still gone ignored as they have my status of my discharged auto loan as : " Status : Now paying / was a charge-off '' .This information is false or fraudulent as car was never charged off and never received paperwork to this status and I have not made a payment since XXXX or XXXX of XXXX. Car re-affirmation agreement was rescinded and officially recognized my Judge XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. The month of XXXX has retroactive reporting stating the car was 90 days late, reaffirmation agreement was accepted in XXXX. Account could not be late at this period of time and XXXX and XXXX has - FP - failed to pay, but you have more contradictory information being reported, " Late payments : XX/XX/XXXX '' there was no payment being made in XXXX. Payments were never made due partially to the fact that XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX nor XXXX XXXX reached out to communicate proper channels to remit payment during bankruptcy. I want the account deleted as part of my dispute resolution request. It is my opinion that both of these companies have sought to delay and not act in accordance with the FCRA Act. It is fact that the issues previously mention have been previously brought to you to adjudicate or mediate to modest gains. It is my opinion the two companies have sought to act unethically, professionally and out of accordance with FCRA with the semantics of updating negative information to their discharged accounts via bankruptcy in the comments and monthly activity on my credit report that would hinder credit repair and a good FICO score. It is my opinion which is rooted in fact that XXXX has reviewed the same complaints many times on many occasions and they have not enforced the FCRA and informed XXXX XXXX and Credit Acceptance Corporation that the reporting is unfair and contradictory. Therefore, I am led to believe that XXXX is acting in conjunction with the companies and agrees with their unethical behavior and is culpable in this matter. As I stated, due to my previous complaint with CFPB I received a paper form of my credit report showing positive changes, however some 3-5 days later XXXX XXXX website is showing no change. CFPB : please assist me in deleting these accounts as my two former creditors ( XXXX XXXX and Credit Acceptance Corporation ) with the assistance with XXXX continue to violate the FCRA after I have legally absolved myself of these debts.

XXXX XXXX I, XXXX XXXX, was co-signer on an auto loan with XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX TN, terms spanning 48 mo., 24 % APR & mo. payments of {$430.00} through Credit Acceptance , Corp. ( CA herein ). First major delinquency was XX/XX/XXXX due to loss of employment & the balance due according to XXXX credit bureaus is {$3600.00}, but balance due as reported by CA {$3500.00}. The XXXX value of the repo 'd SUV for dealer trade in TODAY is {$1200.00} & SUV was repo 'd in XX/XX/XXXX. I did n't receive notice of the sale of the vehicle, but was furnished a copy of what CA claimed to have sent me regarding resale. No deficiency balance ever noted!!! A couple years went by with no correspondence from CA until XXXX/XXXX/XXXX when the sheriff delivered me a final judgment, entered by default as of XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. Upon receiving this, I called XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX ( XXXX herein ) who identified themselves as debt collectors for CA saying the balance due as of judgment is now {$6900.00} & to call for payment arrangements. I was confused and skeptical, as I had already paid roughly {$20000.00} on the contract & there was no record of a deficiency balance applied. After researching more on my own, as circumstantially I could not afford legal advisory, on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX I sent a request via certified mail usps to XXXX for a complete debt validation to include all info in my file, the original contract & a full accounting of all transactions. In response to my request on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, I only received a general response & a copy of the final judgment, no debt validation & no account of the proceeds, deficiency balance or how the sale was processed & there are NO DOCUMENTED PROCEEDS from the deficiency balance towards what is owed, EVER. I was hesitant to make pymnt arrangements in fear of validating the debt, but when I called the courthouse to verify the judgment, it was on file as a legally binding document. As of XX/XX/XXXX, CA has reported the account status with all XXXX credit bureaus with the delinquencies and repossession noted, but never once was a judgment or public notice recorded & said account has been closed as of XX/XX/XXXX, to be scheduled for removal by XX/XX/XXXX. All XXXX credit bureaus reported the same data. Something was n't right & I had read hundreds of complaints via internet regarding unfair & illegal practices by CA. On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX I hesitantly made the first payment of 9 for the {$75.00} arrangement agreement to XXXX from my XXXX checking and have the records. The most recent payment cleared XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. Within that time period, I 've only received XXXX notices from XXXX, the most recent dated XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, stating the amount due was {$7400.00} & that their " client has informed them of a special opportunity to fully satisfy this debt by payment of a significantly reduced amount ''. No other forms of correspondence attempted. Last Thursday, XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, I went to use my debit card and it was declined even though I had over {$1700.00} in my account & had just deposited my payroll. XXXX bank informed me that my account was levied by CA & without any prior notice from my bank or CA. The telephone # I was given sends me to a TN county clerk & that is all the contact info provided. I still have yet to receive any notice from my bank or XXXX or CA regarding the levy & questioning if all this is legal practice. I 've heard of CA judgments being vacated after entered due to CA filing fraudulent affidavits with the courts. When I calculate the amount due under the terms by CA in the judgment, I get completely different amounts and I think they are suing for interest on attorney fees, other interest charges and there are credits of {$0.00} for deficiency and resale of SUV? I definitely can not afford a lawyer now & thinking this is a fraudulent attempt to collect before the SOL is up because the judgment is fraud. Can they take all of my payroll check deposited just before too? I am asking for help with the legalities of this please

After 1 year of automatic payment deduction from my bank for my XXXX XXXX since day 1, looked into trading in the car for another one XX/XX/2020. Upon collecting my original signed documents of the Auto Contract Loan/IntrestRate/Fees/downpayment/billofsale, I noticed that it doesnt match what the Bank just said the payoff amount was! I thoroughly investigated my entire collection of documents and all my records of monthly bills from the first. The entire Loan Contract that I have had since the day I signed them in INK is completely different from the loan contract documents that both of the bank and also the car lots records and theirs are all digitally signed documents so I dont know what exactly they have but I did not sign their documents and definitely not anything digitally signed at that! My paperwork says that my loan amount is for {$6900.00} financed with a 28 % interest rate and my monthly payment was {$240.00} for 48 months. Car purchase price was {$10000.00} plus tax/tag/title became {$11000.00} my down payment was {$4500.00} making the remaining balance {$6900.00} which was the loan amount for financing. The banks documents say that the loan amount was for {$10000.00} with a 22.7 % interest rate and monthly payment for {$320.00} car Purchase price was {$13000.00} plus tax/tag/title became {$14000.00} then subtract my down payment of {$4500.00} leaving {$10000.00} which is the financed amount they have listed on their digital records! But on my first bill I got in mail for my first payment due has listed that {$320.00} payment total and then it lists my account total balance amount at {$15000.00}!!! I was unaware I had been paying more monthly since it was automatically deducted from my bank account and for an entire years worth of that higher amount I additionally paid for 4 payments $ XXXX due to the coronavirus auto payment deferral 3 months pushed back. They said I had to make those up for doing it and was required to pay {$400.00} for 4 months after the 3 months deferral! So basically according to my calculations I have paid for over the loan amount original total by now without calculating loan interest but it is not far from complete paid off if you go based off the original contract totals with the higher monthly payments {$86.00} over the original monthly totals. I have tried discussing this with both the bank as well as the dealership owner. Both refused to accept the original signed contract documents claiming that they were not even able to believe they had anything to do with them or anything else! I have now unfortunately gotten behind on my last 3-4 months of payments and I have no conclusion that it is something I could even get caught up on as they are doing nothing to help with payments and require me to pay the entire amount thats past due of over $ XXXX with late fees and all! Otherwise theyre threatening daily to repossess the car!! Luckily theyve not been out yet to repo as they wouldnt even be able to get the car anyway as its in a million pieces having the motor rebuilt after blown major mechanical failures. Currently having the timing chain replaced/head rebuilt/balance shafts & sprocket replacements as well as also Water pump replacement!! Please help me resolve this fraudulent auto loan so I can get a better loan with lower interest rates for another car to get credit history building for the GOAL of First Time Home ownership mortgage!! I can provide you all documentation proving this. The Lender is Credit Acceptance Corp, they were recently sued for this exact type of thing in a Class Action Settlement but its just for the state the bank is located in. The dealership is XXXX XXXX located in XXXX GA. Both the bank and the seller are definitely in together with this fraudulent situation, and its not just myself claiming that they are either! XXXX the dealership you can see several people that have left reviews claiming that they stole their down payments and more!!!

My brother passed away suddenly on XX/XX/XXXX XXXX a Veteran of the XXXX XXXX. He had a car loan through Credit Acceptance ( CA ) for a XXXX XXXX XXXX, which my XXXX yr old mother cosigned. We called to find out the options for returning the car. The original terms of loan payment, which she co-signed was a monthly payment of XXXX. At some point CA and my brother lowered the payment from {$340.00} to {$90.00} via a verbal agreement, they said. My mother never authorized a change, nor did she know or approve of the the new terms of the loan. I ask you, why would CA agree to such a change? They knew it would default to her, if my brother did not pay. CA was taking advantage of a senior citizen. They knew they could pull this over on her. Also, when she originally signed this loan, the individual at the XXXX XXXX of XXXX XXXX did not cover the Interests Rate. When I pulled the contract out, I had a heart attack! 22.99 % is Predatory and Criminal!! When we called CA on XX/XX/XXXX, we also found out that my brother had not sent a payment since XX/XX/XXXX. So, he was in default on his payments and my mother had not received a single letter of notification from CA. When I pointed this out to XXXX at CA, all he had to say was he was sorry. Really?! All while this loan continues to collect interest and late fees. NOW, my mother was responsible for paying this loan off ( approx {$10000.00} ). I understand the co-signer responsibilities. After complaints to the Indiana Attorney General and the Indiana Ins and Financial Services and got no further than we were in the first place. We have paid this car off, after getting jacked around, on how to get it paid off and get the title as quickly as possible. We are told it will take 21-30 days for the title. We paid the payoff amount given to us to begin with and I sent a CERTIFIED check overnight USPS. I called the next day to confirm they received it and then found out I still owed XXXX, since it took a week to get them the money. Since they have so many rules of how they WILL NOT take your money. That day, I gave one of their many phone minions my checking information to pay the balance. After almost a month and no title, I called yesterday ( XX/XX/XXXX ) and ask where it was. XXXX in the title dept said, I still owed them XXXX now, because of some nonsense about the payment not going through. I called the bank after that call with CA and my Bank said there was plenty of money in that account and she did not see anything that attempted to hit my account. My opinion is that that phone guy was mad because I was frankly yelling and crying at the way this company does business and so he decided NOT to pass my payment through, since I asked for his name. He was being very condescending to me and when I requested the title dept after I paid, he said, why ... they will tell you the same thing I am telling you. Now, I am another month sitting on {$11000.00} out of our pocket and we just want the title so we can recover some of the money. The car is only worth {$5000.00}. I have requested that the title be expedited and was denied. They are frankly just living up to the reputation they have built. XXXX in the Title Department truly has been kind and I have felt like she is trying, but it seems like the rest of this company has a mantra to just not be helpful to their customers. Have I yelled and cried, yes. I've lost my brother and this has been very painful & stressful. He had no life insurance or will. I'd like everyone of these people to pick their closest relative and then stick them in the ground tomorrow. See how that feels. I'm asking for the title to be expedited so we can recoup some of the money we've lost from paying off this care. I've read that XXXX XXXX CEO doesn't want to be known. I understand why.. he's the wealthiest man in the XXXX area XXXX I'd want that to be a big secret too. He also runs a very unethical company.

In addition, according to CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORP privacy policy, consumers are unable to limit the sharing of there non public personal information. However 15 USC 6802 ( B ) 1 B states that the consumer is giving the opportunity before the time that such information is initially disclosed, to direct that such information not be disclosed to such third party. Currently there are no conspicuous OPT OUT options, forms, notices, or clauses in your agreement, on your website or have been directly provided to me as the consumer to prevent you from sharing LATE PAYMENTS which is considered non public personal information If you have provided these options, please provide me with the original agreement that has conspicuous information that explains your ability to share my non public personal information as well as my ability to opt out. This agreement by law, must encompass both aspects in order in order to be lawful disclosure. Moreover, this policy violates 15 USC 6802 ( B ) 1C which states that the consumer is giving an explanation of how the consumer can exercise that nondisclosure option. Therefore, Without giving me the opportunity to opt out your institution furnished nonpublic personal information to non affiliated third parties XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX. This is XXXX violation and infringement of my consumer and privacy rights but you have also violated multiple Federal LAWS as you are intentionally withholding consumer rights information from borrowers by not providing an OPT out clause or opportunity in the same agreement.

I purchased a XXXX XXXX XXXX on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX that was sold as a " Certified Pre-Owned '' from XXXX in XXXX XXXX, CO. The only finance company they said would work with us was Credit Acceptance Corporation with an interest rate of 18.99 % but could refinance it after a year. I do n't have enough space on this page to go into all of the fraudulent and horrible things that have been going on with this company but THEY are corrupt and need to be shut down! I needed a car so we did it. I asked for the XXXX and was told they would give it to me once the finance paperwork came back due to having to update me as a new owner but all Certified cars were XXXX owner, never wrecked, and eligible for an extended service contract. By the time we got the financing done it was about XXXX on a Saturday and was told they would have to wait for XXXX to write it up but they would give me my Buyers Order which shows the contract. During this time they told me that XXXX required I have a starter interruption device installed in the car due to being high risk which i was told could be removed after 1 year of good payments and I agreed to do it. I looked everything over and saw that they had charged me a {$25.00} emission fee and asked why that was on there. I was told it was an error because the vehicle is emission exempt and they would correct it when I came back for my completed finance paperwork because the lender would not put that on there. During this time I got a phone call that XXXX would only finish the loan if I added XXXX insurance and an extended service contract but that I had to sign the form it was my choice. I was told that I can refuse it but then they would not give me the loan and I would lose my {$1500.00} cash down plus mileage on the car so I was left with no choice. When I finally got my finance paperwork they had charged me for the emission test too! I asked why and was told that I had to call XXXX to have them remove it. I contacted XXXX who told me that XXXX put it on the loan so the charge was valid. I told them that it was exempt and asked to speak with their legal department. The amount on my finance paperwork is more than the amount on my Buyers Order but they said it 's legal. For over 2 years now I have been fighting the finance company about my loan. I have proof that everything about it is fraudulent including my extended warranty which I canceled and have still not been refunded for. The mileage on the vehicle is not correct according to all of my docs and would speak with " XXXX '' at XXXX who would give me a few days to come up with the proof he demanded or he would close the case. He closed my case about 10 times over the years. I finally sent him EVERYTHING and could not get a hold of him for months at a time and was told he was the ONLY person I could speak with. Once I finally spoke with " XXXX '' he said that he went over everything and there was nothing he could find wrong even though the car does n't show that I am the owner through XXXX or XXXX etc. He told me he was closing the case and if I got the proof that the car was exempt to let him know and he would reopen it. He said its only the dealers fault but they have to check the vehicles they lend for! I went to motor vehicle where it shows it was tested on date of purchase but it was n't so I went to the emissions place to get a XXXX report and the ONLY time it ever had emissions was when I was forced to do it on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX since it showed it in the computer through XXXX.It was reported fraudulently and are charging me for items they can't.I have been calling daily begging them to transfer me to the legal dept to speak with XXXX about this and was told that there 's a note on my file stating they are NOT aloud to transfer me to the legal dept since he closed it! I still faxed the proof with a letter but no return call. I have EVERY conversation on recording as proof too!

I have XXXX car loans with the same lender. They have erroneously posted payments to the wrong account, which resulted in the other loan becoming behind by two months or more. The company then began repo activity to repossess the car. I contacted the company and attempted to resolve the issue, they were uncooperative and rude. They refused to correct their error and credit the payments to the correct account. They demanded payment immediately or would repossess the car. I asked for a supervisor but was told that none was available and they would not do anything about the issue anyway. They claimed that payments were not made on several occasions and that late fees had accrued resulting in both loans being behind by {$1000.00} each ( more than XXXX months ). I had contacted the company previously in XXXX 2015 and made a payment to bring the account current, because they had posted payments to the wrong account and refused to correct the error. In XXXX 2015 the company claimed that the loan was {$1000.00} behind, even though it was current the month before, stating that late fees and other penalties had caused the amount to be so much. I could not get anyone to explain the creative accounting method which they are apparently using. The XXXX loan had XXXX or more payments credited to it, that were made to the other loan, in addition to the correct payments that were made to the XXXX loan. The XXXX loan was paid XXXX months in advance at this point, however the company claims that the loan is {$1000.00} behind, due to late fees and penalties, and that the payments that were in excess of the payment due were not credited as future payments, but applied to the principle. Thus having no effect on reducing the monthly payment amount nor being available to credit the overage to the XXXX loan which was behind by several payments because they had made an error. They first said they could not apply the erroneous payments back to the correct account for the reason that they had been applied to the principle instead of a future credit, then later in the conversation they claimed they could not correct the payment error because the XXXX loan was also behind by {$1000.00} due to missed payments in XXXX and XXXX 2015. The missed payments were the result of not clearing the bank, however the payments were sent within a few days of the event, to keep the loan current, and the loan payments were never more than two weeks late. I could not get any explanation of how they had calculated a past due amount of over {$1000.00}, nearly XXXX payments, when the loan had never been behind more than a couple weeks. They claimed it was " likely '' due to late fees and that I should pay my bills on time to prevent this from happening. I advised them that I had the payment history in front of me and that their information was incorrect, because the payment history showed payments every month, with a second payment made whenever a payment had not processed as well as several months with the payment for the XXXX loan posted to the XXXX loan incorrectly. The loan payment for the XXXX loan is withdrawn automatically from my checking account. The payment for the XXXX loan is made manually online through XXXX XXXX and requires the account number to be entered. I have only made payments to the XXXX loan by this method thus I have never entered the account number for the XXXX loan, which would indicate that the error is in there payment processing method and not with my payment method. I spoke with several reps but they all repeated the same prompt, they demanded payment immediately or would have the car repossessed, I offered to make a payment the next day when my pension payment would be available because I did not have the money available until then, they refused any compromise. I believe their business practices are fraudulent, deceptive and in bad faith. My dispute was ignored

I purchased a vehicle XX/XX/XXXX, reason : Old car was totaled which I myself was not at fault. So Knowing im not a people person due to personal issues. I purchased a car from a local dealer. Being a very busy single mom working and in vital need of transportation for myson to a collage prep XXXX school, and most importantly work means I needed a car fast. Went to a dealer I had done business with and trusted he was honest. Boy was I wrong!,!,! First he made an appointment to have me stop by and pick or look at some vehicles. I did they were mostly over priced. And not to clean. Simply not worth what I was willing to put down for a safe decent car with a lower payment and maybe a bit bigger since my children are still growing. I did find a car and was promised he would give me a great deal and {$4000.00} would be sufficient in addition to another {$300.00} which needed to be received by dealer right away. As promised I did all that was asked of me. I even felt with dealing with just men which kinda made me feel like prey. But I got over that and started to stress the lengthy issue and picking my son up on time. Well Later after my purchase I had some kinda issue with the car and could n't figure it found out from advance auto that there 's was a device in my car that would shut the car off if I was extremely late and avoiding them but I did one of that. I had direct payment. Also the first week my boss and auto body noticed small sounds and the drivers seatbelt work sometimes with great effort. In addition to that the sunroof started to have issues and one day I stopped at the dealership asked for or someone to look at the issue, and to my surprise a hooka pen. I do n't smoke XXXX. It cracked the plastic casing and the dealer had someone close it due to winter arriving and the peace that fell off should have been replaced. I started to make complaints regarding these issues .but nothing was done. Also it took a while but I did end up finding the lean holder and thinking that they were true to their mission statement I started to explain what was going on and the amount loaned was too much then my down payment seem to be something that would haunt me in this future. I explained that the car was having issues and also that I was extremely happy to find out who my Leander was because no one explained a thing to me. They did n't even know the small suv had an automatic starter till I expressed to XXXX XXXX. I was also very expressive regarding the machine in the car which could cause all types of strenuous issues especially for a person such as myself. Well long story short I 'm in XXXX and will on a journey to assist the fraud this company has done, The injustice done by signing binding contracts as if they were me .they took my car with my grandmothers vintage rosary and an old wedding bad hanging from my mirror and they also took my emergency kit. And last but not least the work I had done to my vehicle to fix the ball joints, have a new batterie installed fix major work to the AIr conditioner which leaked till I became frustrated and took this vehicle off the road. It seem like a great blessing when someone very close to my family. Notice the wrong that was taking place and how I was paying for a car I 'd driven for about five months. Being bought XX/XX/XXXX and taken off the road XX/XX/XXXX then in the shop being semi repaired due to my budget. But finally the car gets towed home I start to clear the fraud and misinturpitated information that has been used by insurance companies to deny me any insurance. Causing me to depend on fixing the van offered to me while I handle the situation with the XXXX Lincolm mix that I believe has been paid with the work I 've invested also cleaning it after the first day owning there was a devise installed without my permission. Now I 'm looking at contracts with my name signed? confused need help

On XX/XX/2023, I purchased a used car from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, NJ. As part of the purchase, I applied for and was approved for financing through Credit Acceptance. The car was advertised for sale at {$10000.00}, and despite the car having several CEL codes, I agreed to the price. During the signing of the loan agreement, the dealer stated they needed to add on {$860.00} of charges " in order to meet minimum loan balance requirement for loan eligibility ''. The charges were included on the sales agreement as " Accessories '' and consisted of itemized charges for floor mats, trailer hitch and wheel locks. None of these accessories were actually included with the car on purchase. A day after the purchase, the lender, Credit Acceptance called me to inquire about the Accessories listed on the purchase, wanting to confirm that those items were not fictitious. I informed them that the items were in fact fictitious, and were added by the dealer to meet the loan requirements for minimum balance. The lender apologized for the issue, and opened up an investigation on the dealer to get those funds refunded from my loan balance. On XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX and XXXX, the dealer contacted me by phone and then by text messages. They were somehow alerted of the complaint that was filed by the lender, and were extremely hostile and aggressive in their communication with me. They flat out demanded that I cancel the complaint with the lender, or else they would cancel the loan and repossess the car ( I have the phone screenshots showing these text messages ). I refused to cancel my complaint and demanded they stop contacting me because I had already bought the car and put a down payment on it, and had an active loan on the car with the lender. Several days later, I received an email notification from my lender, stating that my auto payments had been cancelled. A week later, the lender sent me a letter in the mail indicating they had " reassigned my loan back to the dealership, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. '' Both the cancellation of my auto payments and the cancellation / reassignment of my loan from the lender back to the dealer were all done without my authorization. Right before I received the letter from the lender, the dealer again contacted me saying they had cancelled the loan, and demanded I return the car or else they would repossess it and would assess me more fees. I called the lender at the same time and demanded they undo the cancellation because I did not authorize it, and the lender refused to comply and stated that the dealer has the right to cancel loans in certain circumstances and refused to provide any further details A day later, I contacted an attorney, explained my situation, and the attorney sent a demand letter to the dealer demanding they stop contacting me, and cease any and all cancellations and unauthorized modifications to my loan contract, and also demanded a full refund of the {$860.00} of fictitious and fraudulent charges. My attorney also sent a demand letter to my lender, notifying the lender that they had violated privacy law by sharing personal information about the complaint with the dealer which resulted in the dealer taking retaliatory action against the customer. The letter also demanded that they undo the cancellation of my loan, reinstate my loan, remove any unauthorized parties other than myself from the loan contract, re-initiate any scheduled auto payments, and to not allow the dealer to make any further unauthorized changes to my loan agreement. I have not heard back from the lender, and it is now 1 month later. I want to keep the car, get my loan reinstated, and avoid any illegal repossession of my car. I need help getting this situation resolved as soon as possible and would like to avoid any costly legal fees that I would need to incur by taking either the dealer and/or the lender to court.

This complaint is to accompany my previous complaint regarding XXXX XXXX XXXX here in Wi. In addition to the loan packing and material misrepresentations made during the transaction, I want to make it clear that when I gave my financial information I thought I would have opportunity to do my own application for the auto loan so I could read the terms. Everything was printed up, filled out and decided before I ever entered the finance office. I DID object to the ancillary products but was told the warranty and gap insurance were required by the lender. POINT BLANK. This is evidenced by the fact that I called the next day to discuss cancellation with the dealership. Also, I have a witness to the conversation with the GM at which time he said he was so " sorry '' that the business manager told me I had to have the products to get a loan. That contract should have been re written immediately. XXXX XXXX ( GM ) clearly encourages employees to commit fraud. In addition, the salesman, the GM, the " closer '' ( I do not know his name ) and the business manager all told me they would refinance me after a few on time payments because I balked at the interest rate of 22 % ( which was actually 22.9 % ). While my credit is poor, it 's not like I was in the XXXX. Between the XXXX bureaus the lowest was XXXX and highest was XXXX. I now know that refinancing will only cost more. My loan is based on the rule of XXXX which is outlawed in many states. Apparently the loan was funded immediately which prevented me from payment amounts I had previously calculated, under XXXX per month. It is this type of predatory conduct that put me in this position in the first place. I was XXXX of the first in 2007 to lose everything due to XXXX XXXX, XXXX, etc. My issues with Credit Acceptance Corporation are the following : 1. Ignoring their duty to investigate dealerships they work with 2. They refuse to give me a recalculation after refunds 3. Possible pre payment penalties for products I objected to 3. Added fees for cancellation 4. I was sent a payment booklet with payment and terms as if nothing was cancelled. I was told " It aint gon na happen '' to get an honest recalculation. The rule of XXXX is so confusing even accountants rarely understand it. Everybody lied about everything said and document execution was very shady to say the least. There are only e signatures except for two things ... and those two things were hidden by a hand. I was under extreme duress because the dealership asked to see my check from my insurance company ( XXXX ) and REFUSED to give it back. I did absolutely ask the right questions, I am not an XXXX! My check was misapproppriated and " processed '' before the papers were even signed. This is what I was told and the lender does NOT CARE. It is my opinion that the dealership and this lender are making back door deals that harm consumers. This will put me right back into bankruptcy. I also want to know if there is a disabling device in my vehicle, the lender will not disclose this. How do they get away with this? If this is not conspiracy to defraud I do n't know what is. Please for the love of XXXX investigate Credit Acceptance Corp and XXXX XXXX XXXX. By the way, XXXX XXXX is on a feeding frenzy for people with poor credit according to all the ads and flyers. I found them on a XXXX link and their website calls for people that can qualify with NO CREDIT CHECK. I put myself into the computation ( after my car purchase ) and it seems with no credit check I should have under 12 % interest rate. Hmmm. The salesman told me they had " special loans '' for people on XXXX. That is why I went there in the first place. This is crime after crime and somebody needs to move on it. My loan is bad enough, however, if it is sold into securities who will care that nearly XXXX was refunded to the lender??? My payment book is the same.

Issues1 ) Dealer buyers guide not disclosed nor was a AS IS. Definition of UNSAFE is not the same as AS IS. Addtionally carguns advertisment reflective of same. No buyers guide on cube or AS IS displayed on advertisement of car. Dont see any on other cars on lot as well. Dealer clearly demontrates that this is is standard way of frauding consumers with his own pictures and advertisements. 2 ) Prior unsafe issues known at time of sale. See pictures of bent rim on dealers advertisement on cargun and lack of any buyer guide?? Bent rim is the reason for the bearing failure per XXXX. As well as the spare tire casing and front tire steal. However, despite you having diagnostics and a call to XXXX you are telling me is WEAR AND TEAR?? 3 ) Car value was extremly inflated and that if I were to give back car you would hold me responsible for not being able to sell car at the value sold to me Especially with the known repairs needed at time of sale and knowinly inflating the value in good condtiin let alone poor condition. Do you have the Auction Sale information on issues? Rental Companies information and accident claim? 3 ) My credit report reflects YO, YO of what I owe since XX/XX/XXXX and today you decided to refund me full amount of warranty instead of charging me pro rated amount? Last week you argued with me I am responsible for it than increased my credit amount owed on my credit report. I have my report on PDF each month and pictures you have are screen shots of XXXX XXXX. You advised not to send youll pull yourself what you reported. You also stated you dont see 3 payments by me? Is saying I made a payment the way you decrease and increased my balances???????? 4 ) Dealer email and warranty phamplet I have that says this is my contract provisions is not? I have nothing but phamplet. Also dealer had me on camera of what I got and didnt get. What was explained and not explained. You signed? Check out the recordings of the webcam recording he does at signing. He has tgem since all your signatures are also recorded. 5 ) Only condition of car surrender would be full forgiveness of loan. 6 ) I can email you ( Unsecure ) but you cant email me back because its unsecure? A new complaint to follow and you recorded our conversation on this. That explains you not answeing my emails? Why is it OK that I email you Unsecured? Why give me two email addresses to send information than tell me today is unsecured????? Ill file this very email on the above with New complaint. Ill also call you on your recorded line that you said ALL calls recorded or we cant talk? I only have that option so be it recordings Ive already had to stop driving so far to work in excess of 1,000 miles per week that week and drop some clients. Now you want me to surrender the car being hit up with the disrepaired already overl inflated price value difference???? Bankruptcy is inevidable with your company!!!! Makes one wounder about your dealer university what is being taught. Also the shared profit on interest? Contracts tailored by state ( Yours would Prohibit ) Your MO seems to blame the uneducated consumer To Bad So Sad you should have done your homework? Here is link to advertisement from dealer prior to sale with pictures.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I applied for an auto loan through the car dealership where I purchased a XXXX XXXX XXXX. The dealership, XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, located in XXXX California, is a privately owned dealership and the salesman, XXXX XXXX misled both myself and my co-signer who is my ex-husband, stated that the vehicle was priced at {$6900.00}. After the salesman ran my credit and attempted to obtain a loan through their bank, I was informed that my application wasn't accepted. I was then informed that he would attempt to obtain financing " in-house '', and that in addition to increasing my down payment from the initial {$1500.00} that I had brought with me in cash, that I would need a co-signer. I agreed to increase my down payment by {$1000.00} and asked my ex-husband to co-sign for me. The salesman also instructed both myself and my co-signer that we were to tell the finance company and that the paperwork ( i.e. ; loan application and subsequent documentation was to show that the vehicle is being stored at an address where I no longer resided. My ex-husband and I do no live together and the salesman was made aware of this, however he still insisted that for the sake of the loan being approved, that the paperwork was to reflect that the vehicle was being stored at an address that I did not reside at. Upon receiving approval for financing, and after the paperwork had been started for the completion of the sale, the salesman insisted that if I didn't purchase the almost {$1500.00} 1-year warranty from a third-party, that I would have to pay an additional {$500.00} before being able to drive the car off of their lot. Both the salesman, and the owner of the dealership, a man by the name of XXXX, assisted myself and my co-signer in getting all of the required signatures to complete the transaction. I was informed by the owner that the vehicle that I was purchasing was a good vehicle that ran very well., and that in the event that I had any problems with the car, that I was to contact the dealership first to see if the problem could be resolved. My first payment was exactly 30 days from my purchase date. Exactly 2 weeks after purchasing I had been on my way to work when I began having problems with the car. I contacted the dealership immediately and was informed by someone named XXXX that the mechanic wasn't working on the weekends and that I would have to talk to the owner the following Monday. I received a call from the owner the following business day and explained to him what had been happening. I informed him that I could not put the car into gear and that it had broken down at a nearby business and that I would like to have it towed to his dealership to be looked at, which was exactly 11 miles from where the car had been parked. The owner then informed me that it was my problem that I had to figure out a way to get the car towed to his dealership on my own and that he didn't have a tow truck that could retrieve the vehicle. I then mentioned to the dealer that it had been less than 2 weeks since I purchased the " lemon '' at which time he began shouting at me over the phone saying that he didn't have to help me and that the car was fine when I drove it off the lot and then proceeded to insinuate that it was my fault that the clutch wasn't working. I also mentioned that I was charged for Emissions Testing in the amount of {$50.00} and that California law requires that the seller of the vehicle pay for any Smog fees before selling a vehicle. I have yet to receive license plates and a registration card for the vehicle, even though the salesman said that the registration process would be taken care of by the dealership. Since XX/XX/XXXX, I have been unable to go to work and make money necessary to make my car payment. I have lost out on income making opportunities as well.

In XXXX of XXXX I purchased a vehicle from XXXX XXXX. The creditor that financed my vehicle was Credit Acceptance. When I purchased the vehicle I also purchased the extended warranty. Around XXXX of XXXX, my car left me stranded on the side of the road. I immediately contacted a tow truck and the tow truck delivered the vehicle to the dealership XXXX of XXXX. Prior to towing the truck, he looked under the hood and showed me where someone had added XXXX XXXX XXXX. I actually took pictures right then and there as well of the Pellets. Credit Acceptance informed me I would need to file a claim with the Warranty Company. The Warranty Company denied the claim because the car ran hot. They claimed I drove the vehicle running hot which voided the warranty and THAT IS SIMPLY NOT THE CASE. I was petrified and humiliated when all of this happened. I was sitting in the parking lot of the post office and I refused to even get back in the vehicle because I was scared it was going to catch on fire. In XXXX of XXXX the previous owner of the vehicle took the car in for maintenance and XXXX XXXX denied XXXX XXXX XXXX request for a new motor due to negligence by the owner. As I started doing more and more research on the vehicle and started contacting XXXX and XXXX of XXXX, I was informed by XXXX that the title to my vehicle was in fact a BRANDED title and that it was labeled as BRANDED in XXXX of XXXX. In XXXX of XXXX, XXXX of XXXX recommended the motor be replaced and requested permission to do so from Corporate. Corporate denied the request. I am assuming at that time, is when the XXXX XXXX Pellets where put into the motor so that whomever could put a bandaid on the issue and then sell the vehicle at auction. I am the LUCKY PERSON who purchased a vehicle without ever being informed that the vehicle had a Salvage Title. It is my understanding that it is up to the Creditor that finances the vehicle to ensure that the title is clear before ever financing the vehicle. In my case this would be Credit Acceptance. Once they denied my claim, I couldnt afford to pay for a new motor and pay the note, so I contacted Credit Acceptance and let them know where the vehicle was and requested that they come pick it up. This was around XX/XX/XXXX. I voluntarily gave the car back because it wouldve cost me $ XXXX to get the vehicle fixed properly and I had already spent $ XXXX on a warranty that I wouldve never been able to use because of the BRANDED TITLE. Credit Acceptance not only told me it was not there responsibility and sent me on a wild goose chase but they also started marking my credit report late in XXXX of XXXX and they continued to mark my credit report late through XXXX of XXXX. XXXX // XXXX // XXXX // XXXX // XXXX // XXXX // XXXX // XXXX // XXXX // XXXX // REPOSSESSION. This has had a TREMENDOUS impact on my credit score and none of this is my fault or my responsibility. There is no reason that it took Credit Acceptance 11 months to come pick up the vehicle when they knew exactly where it was from day one after I requested they come pick it up. I believe I am entitled to my money back for the Warranty purchased that Id never be able to use and all funds paid towards the vehicle because I was NEVER INFORMED THE VEHICLE HAD A BRANDED TITLE OR I NEVER WOULDVE PURCHASED IT IN THE FIRST PLACE. Most importantly I am requesting that the credit reporting be removed due to Credit Acceptance not holding up their end of the contract and financing a branded title as well as taking 11 months to ever come pick up the vehicle. All of this was uncalled for and none of this was my fault or my responsibility. ATTACHED : XXXX REPORT SHOWING WHERE XXXX OF XXXX IN FACT RECEIVED THE XXXX XXXX OF XXXX AND LET IT PASS INSPECTION. ATTACHED : LETTER FROM XXXX OF XXXX STATING THE VEHICLE WAS BRANDED

I have a car loan with Credit Acceptance for a little over a year now. During the Pandemic I missed XXXX and XXXX 's payments because of the shut down. I did call them in XXXX to let them know but was told payment was still expected while others were able to add theirs to end of loan. It took me 3 months to receive my Pandemic Unemployment Benefits but luckily had them in time to make as payments. I also made a payment arrangement to pay an extra {$100.00} on top of my {$270.00} payment till caught up. I continued to pay the extra 100 for 6 months which more than covered the two payments i missed. However I have been dealing with them ruining my credit for the past 9 month 's! I have disputed this with credit bureaus 5x with it just coming back that the information is correct! I have made a complaint with the XXXX XXXX XXXX and called the company directly many times with no one listening to me till one day a women that happen to be answering the phones helping out but works in Upper Management. She told me they were not supposed to be reporting negetive information to credit reports if it had to do with Covid-19! I was then contacted by a woman named XXXX in the Compliance Dept. The first time we spoke I explained everything to her and she said she would conduct an investigation and report back to me which I excepted. XXXX reported back to me even more disturbing information! I apparently owed the company {$900.00} more before I was caught up! At first being in shock I couldn't speak. Then I asked her how do you figure that? I asked her where my extra {$100.00} a month for 6 months went because my payments are only {$270.00} and I missed two due to Pandemic! Then she proceeded to tell me they have no information for XXXX 's payment which consisted of 2 different payments each being a different amount as the company repo my car for no reason! I got the car back two hour after it was taken because I was already paying the payment that morning. I also had to pay them back for the repo. How does a company not have all the Information about a repo they had ordered and given back to the customer? Mind you I only have had the car for 2 months at this time put {$3500.00} down and hadn't missed a payment was just a bit late for XXXX because of the way I was being paid! I am a single mother and have spent this past year working my XXXX off to pay anything on my credit report as I have plans for 2 big purchases and I want a good credit score. Worked so hard for this company to ruin it in a single second reporting information that is incorrect by a long shot! Even after speaking to Compliance Dept I asked her to please fix my credit report information because they were ruining my credit score badly! I'll say she attempted but all she did was change some of it to no data to report! That's not fair I pay my payments on time every month except Pandemic which many of us had problems! After speaking to her again my report mysteriously got worse again! Says I haven't made a payment since XXXX, I've missed 6 payments, and the balance i owe I've paid 5 percent of in over a year! This is a disgrace and can truly impact a person 's life! I know many other people are experiencing this same issue with this company as I read all the complaints on their website! Someone had to do something and I'm done with them doing this to me! I have proof of every payment and when it was made! Also mind you this whole past year I have been in and out of the hospital very sick this just made things worse! I refuse to have to go another 2 or more years dealing with Credit Acceptance! My next step if this matter is not taken care of and done correctly I will be obtaining legal counsel to resolve it! Please Help!!

In XXXX I financed a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX from Credit Acceptance Corporation. On XXXX XXXX, XXXX a district court judge in XXXX XXXX, XXXX, through a civil court proceeding, awarded aforementioned XXXX XXXX to my ex fiance, XXXX XXXX. She was ( under civil contempt of court ) to refinance the vehicle, and assume any back payments. XXXX XXXX failed to do so. In XXXX of XXXX the vehicle was repossessed from her residence in XXXX, XXXX. Credit Acceptance Corp then attempted to sue me in XXXX XXXX XXXX via a third party collections Law office ( XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX. ) I was living in the State of XXXX, and had been for three years. This is a venue violation under the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act ( FDCPA ). I never received service of process. Rather, my father was served a summons for my appearance at his home residence, in XXXX. He opened the correspondence. This is another FDCPA violation, as I never gave permission to account details to be disclosed to any third parties. I notified the firm ( XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX ) that I did not reside in XXXX, and provided them proof of such. They then ad my father served again before sending me a letter stating that they were dismissing the case they had filed against me in XXXX XXXX, XXXX court, and had forwarded my file back to the original creditor. I heard nothing for some time and disputed this account with the credit reporting bureau, XXXX. The creditor then changed the account from charged off to repossessed, which caused my FICO score to go down over XXXX points. This account is seriously hindering my abilities to acquire any lines of credit at this point, whatsoever. Credit Acceptance Corp then filed my account with the offices of XXXX and XXXX in XXXX XXXX, XXXX. I contacted them to dispute the account, and advise them that I had moved back to XXXX state, and had been here for several months I was told that they too had filed suit against me in XXXX XXXX, XXXX ... a county I had not resided in for over a year. They advised me to forward them the papers from the court, showing that I had been released from my obligations with regard to the aforementioned vehicle. I fulfilled their request and was told that I would be contacted back within 5 days. I heard nothing. After several months, I contacted Credit Acceptance Corp, to inquire as to the status of my dispute. I was told by the representative that the account was being handled by their " in-house legal team '' and should be expecting another suit shortly, as they never received any paperwork regarding a dispute from XXXX and XXXX, and " did n't believe that I actually had any such paperwork. '' ( Again, I never received service of process, with regard to suit being filed against me. ) I have never been treated with anything other than rude, ignorant language by any Credit Acceptance Corporation representative, and have a suspicion that most of their csr 's work from home, as I 've had conversations in which I 've been able to hear other people discussing non business related topics, and have even heard children yelling and fussing in the background. I feel their business practices are completely unacceptable and incredibly unprofessional. I am not responsible for this debt, and am sick of being threatened with lawsuits by this company and their hired, XXXX party thugs. I am attaching the documentation from XXXX XXXX district court to this complaint, proving that a judge released me from all obligations to this account. I would like this permanently removed from my XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX credit reports, at very least, and feel that {$1000.00} in damages per violation comitted under the Fair Debt collections Practices act is duly owed at this point in time.

On XX/XX/XXXX I contacted my auto loan creditor, Credit Acceptance, in order to have them send the necessary paperwork to the XXXX DMV for new vehicle tags as I had recently moved from XXXX where I had originally financed the vehicle. On XX/XX/XXXX I attempted to register for new plates, after verifying the documents from Credit Acceptance had been sent to the DMV. The staff at the XXXX DMV notified me that the required documents were in fact, not sent to them. But instead, the Title Department apparently decided a non official document was equivalent - an assertation they maintained throughout all my communications with them until the end of XX/XX/XXXX. I was issued a temporary tag from the XXXX DMV which expired on XX/XX/XXXX. Pre-empting the pending expiration of my temporary tag, I contacted Credit Acceptance yet again. The Title department insisted they had sent the correct document, and hesitantly I decided to attempt the XXXX DMV yet again. The manager on duty at the XXXX DMV showed me the unofficial document which they would not honor, and said there was nothing that would be done until the proper document was received. So on XX/XX/XXXX I contacted Credit Acceptance yet again and received the same excuse " we were never sent the proper document from XXXX, this declaration should work. '' This was now the second time I had requested they obtain the proper document, but this was never acknowledged, nor was it acted upon by Credit Acceptance. On XX/XX/XXXX I applied for another temporary tag, and was issued it due to extenuating circumstances. On XX/XX/XXXX I contacted the Titles Department at Credit Acceptance and demanded that they obtain a new copy of the Notice of Security Interest Filing. I was told that the request was noted in my file and would be handled by the person assigned to it. On XX/XX/XXXX I paid for a copy of my part of the XXXX title ( hoping this also sent a new copy of the Lien Holder 's part to my creditor ). I received my copy within the week, and also inquired with the State of XXXX Department of Motor Vehicles if my transaction also sent new documents to my creditor. They answered within the same day that it did not. On XX/XX/XXXX I contacted Credit Acceptance yet again, to verify their progress as I had received no communication from them. I discovered that nothing from my previous request had been recorded or acted upon. I had at this point now been paying for a car I was unable to use for over a month. It was at this time that I informed them I would not make another payment until they fulfilled their legal obligation in this matter, and provided the level of service which credit contract implied. I was assured that, the proper steps would be taken. I requested communication at the time of their receipt for the new Notice of Security Interest Filing from the State of XXXX, as well as a tracking number when they shipped the document to the XXXX DMV. On XX/XX/XXXX I called Credit Acceptance yet when asked the status of the Security fillings document, they still did not have it - although they now claimed that they were waiting for it from XXXX. I am now on my second month of paying for a car that I can not use due to either the apathy or ineptitude of the lien holder for my vehicle. In addition to having my access blocked to the property for which I have been paying. I have also been sporadically fined for failure to show current tags on my vehicle by the XXXX Department of Public works. I have now amassed over {$600.00} in fines. Spent over {$100.00} for temporary tags and title copies. I have lost over a dozen hours of work while waiting at the DMV to try to solve an issue that I am currently powerless over.

On XX/XX/XXXX O purchased a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX California. Upon purchasing the vehicle XXXX had assured me the vehicle was in great condition and had in fact just had four new tires put on as well as a new catalytic converter and vehicle was up to date with all maintenance. That being said I agreed to purchase vehicle for price of {$12000.00} TOTAL. This would be there amount just before taxes and was to include all dealership fees ect. Upon signing this price was changed and XXXX made sure to not only charge me that amount but added fees and warranty on top of price we had agreed upon. Price of vehicle ended up snowing over {$22000.00} once I received final loan documentation in my final loan which was altered upon me leaving dealership that day. Within three days of purchase the vehicle check engine light appeared and I immediately brought vehicle back to dealership. XXXX refused to take vehicle back and there was no certified mechanic on lot to help address issue. In fact it was just XXXX and another gentleman XXXX the issue showing which was bank 1 and bank 2 running too lean. They were not able to figure out issue and XXXX then assured me I can contact warranty on vehicle that I purchase and they would go ahead and fix whatever the issue may be. I then not only contacted my finance company to confirm the warranty where they in fact assured me the same thing but decided it was best at this point to go and get a full vehicle inspection. Upon taking my vehicle to a mechanic I was disturbed to find several issues with my vehicle. 1st of course being the check engine light showing ( bank 1 and bank 2 running lean ) second the vehicle NEEDED 4 brand new tires in fact they were not just put on, the tpm alert had been indicating on dash and I was told by XXXX this would clear once I drove for a little bit but Im fact this was due to two of the tire valves being broken and needing replacement, the brakes and routers in front needed replacement as well as all 4 new shocks and struts, car alarm battery is broken and alarm constantly goes off also vehicle was in need of a full tune up needed replaced. Also the vehicle was sold to me at XXXX but two mechanics in fact have assured me actual vehicle mileage is XXXX miles. I have since then attempted to contact warranty company which is wynns warranty. I have registered my warranty online and have sent several emails and voicemails but to no avail. I had to go ahead and start fixing my vehicle and had some of the repairs done so that it can be drivable in the meantime although policy clearly says make sure all claims are approved before beginning maintenance. However.. if I cant get ahold of this company how am I to do so. I have contacted credit acceptance which is the financial institution and let them know I will be suing both them as well as dealership for the altercation of my loan as well as selling me a faulty vehicle. I was told my only option was to surrender my vehicle which would then not only go on my credit and cause my credit to go down but I would most likely still owe out of pocket and be stuck without a vehicle. Upon trying to talk to them and contact lawyers for help my vehicle was repossessed. Upon paying all vehicle repossession fees as well as any fees needed and scheduling appointment to pick up my vehicle from repossession company I was informed a day before pickup date my vehicle had accidentally been sent to auction where I drove two hours to pick it up. Upon picking up my vehicle everything in my vehicle is now missing and no one knows where its gone. I am livid about all of this and think its time these companies are held liable for their actions!!!

The Fourth Amendment stands for the principle that the government generally may not search its people or seize their belongings without appropriate process and oversight. my vehicle was illegally taken. And the company is still using and selling my information without my consent and still can not provide proof that I allowed or gave permission for my signature or information to be used. In the previous complaint i sent the company stated in there response that the account was " 180 days past due '' the company have not reported anything on this account since XXXX ( XXXX XXXX ) the day a payment was last posted but it shows on my credit file that the last payment was posted XX/XX/XXXX and the payment status is 150 days past due. on my credit file it states on the account that -3 % of this " loan '' was paid how can it be listed as -3 if its still in a positive standing? Also it states that I have made 50 % of these payments on time. The company states that they are accurate on reporting and its clear they're making mistakes on their reports. According to 1022.42 Reasonable policies and procedures concerning the accuracy and integrity of furnished information. it states Each furnisher must review its policies and procedures required by this section periodically and update them as necessary to ensure their continued effectiveness. And as shown no updated credit report has been placed since the month of XX/XX/XXXX. this account is a charge off you cant collect a debt from a charge off the account information was suppose to be sent to the irs and has not been. the company is in violation of the following :. 18 U.S. Code 241 - Conspiracy against rights. A demand of cease and desist. 1022.42 Reasonable policies and procedures concerning the accuracy and integrity of furnished information ..4th amendment .fair credit reporting act .congressional findings and statement of purpose .15usc1681b permissible purpose of consumer reports .15usc1681c requirements relating to information contained in consumer reports An agency has the affirmative responsibility to try to collect delinquent debts that are owed to the agency, or referred to the agency for collection. However, at some point in the collection process it may become evident that a debt is uncollectible, and it may be appropriate to terminate collection action, and/or writeoff the debt. An agency fulfills its affirmative responsibility to try to collect delinquent debts by engaging in active collection. Active collection means that the debt is being collected through the use of all appropriate debt collection remedies, including, but not limited to, demand letters, credit bureau reporting, offset, garnishment, foreclosure, litigation, and referral to the Department of the Treasurys ( Treasury ) Bureau of Fiscal Service ( Fiscal Service ) for collection ( known as cross-servicing ). See Chapter 6, Delinquent Debt Collection. Termination of collection action occurs when it appears [ to an agency ] that no person liable on the claim has the present or prospective ability to pay a significant amount of the claim or the cost of collecting the claim is likely to be more than the amount recovered. See 31 U.S.C. 3711 ( a ) ( 3 ). Termination of collection action is a decision to cease active collection action on a debt, in accordance with criteria set out in the Federal Claims Collection Standards, because such action is not economically worthwhile or is otherwise inappropriate. Suspension of collection action occurs when an agency decides to temporarily cease collection action. I do not owe this alleged debt and for the 4th time i am demanding for it to be removed from my credit profile

got pre approval on a XXXXXXXX XXXX. the dealership told us we qualified for way more then what we were asking XXXX after down payment. came time to do the loan and everything checked out with hudbands income ( who made plenty to pay for the car by himself ). XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and get paid via personal check ( was able to provide copies of all recent checks ), also sent in my accounts, debit cards for me and nothing drove the 3 hours home and took off the following monday to get everything done and pick up car. sat around all day for the man to keep giving the dealership the runaround SEVERAL TIMES for stuff that was already verified ( proof of job ) end of day comes too say he needed copies of the backs of the checks when that could have been specified days prior. drove 3 hours back my boss gets copies of all of the checks with HIS bank statement, my time cards and a statement on company letterhead for him to say finally " we need to open an account with the people that cash my checks : XXXXXXXX XXXX ). make appt the next day and go open the account. send over the information for the bank account. end of the day we get a text that NOW we need the boss to make up some actual paystubs ( which he does ) even though that information was already provided with a breakdown on the time cards ) how he does paychecks every payday! boss is livid that now he has to pay XXXX for a paystub program with XXXX EMPLOYEES! we send over the pay stubs ( which the program does not allow for detailed breakdowns at least if it does boss does not know how to use ) I ask the dealership why they dont just call to verify my employment since that is the issue. I was told no one does that until after contracts are signed ( which is INSANE : seems counter productive when someone is well qualified and only one road block is in the way from securing the deal ) fast forward the following day ( end of day on friday which is well after 5 ) dealership calls and says the bank says they need to verify income and no one is answering. I give them my bosses cell phone number ( which is a business phone ). dealership calls me back that night that we need XXXX extra down that the 2000 down would not be enough. I agree to it. soon after we get a text that he wont do it until he calls the business but wont call the cell phone cause he suspects fraud. so i inform my boss who drives the XXXX miles to go to the office so he can talk to this clown i can finally get my car ( after selling mine that morning because i was under the impression if we did the extra XXXX down we were good ). He gets to the office and tells me no one has tried calling the previous day as claimed ( checked called id ) and he waited for XXXX hours for them to call and never did I end up checking my credit that morning to see who the dealership was trying to get the loan through ( credit acceptance corp : who ran my credit TWICE BY THE WAY ... XXXX HARD HITS ) so I call trying to get someone else assigned to my application because of how I was being treated by this person. and they told me they dont talk to customers. I told her i just wanted to be pointed in the direction of who i can talk to about getting my app reassigned elsewhere and I got hung up on.. FINALLY after not answering and leaving the dealership with no answers ( i was told ) somehow they managed to call the dealers and tell them they cant finance to me. i asked for a denial letter and have not gotten one nor an answer as to why all of a sudden they had issues. everything was good in the beginning! these SEVERAL other runarounds i got on stuff that was already verified in several diff ways. this is just the summary

Closing its eyes to practices that harmed consumers : The company created financial incentives for dealers to add extra products to loans and then shrugged off whether customers were misled into thinking the add-on products were required. Add-on products, such as vehicle service contracts, are a profit center for Credit Acceptance. They represented about {$250.00} XXXX in revenue in XXXX alone. When borrowers default on loans, it can lead to severe consequences, including wage garnishment and an inability to borrow money in the future. A default on an auto loan can also lead to the borrower losing their means of transportation, which can cause job loss and a further spiral of damaged credit and financial distress. This is not the only action targeting Credit Acceptance for violation of consumer financial protection laws. For example, last year, the Massachusetts Attorney General secured more than {$27.00} XXXX for thousands of families harmed by Credit Acceptance.Hiding the true cost of credit : Since XXXX, Credit Acceptances loan agreements nationwide have said that consumers would pay interest at an average 22 % APR. However, the true cost of credit offered is far higher than what borrowers are told. This is because Credit Acceptances business model pushes dealers to manipulate the prices of vehicles sold to Credit Acceptance borrowers, based on borrowers projected performance. XXXX then uses the projected collections to decide how much to pay its dealers. XXXX pays dealers less for loans with lower scores because they are riskier, and XXXX predicts it will collect less. Because XXXX sets the interest rate for the loan and that interest rate does not change based on borrower risk, XXXX lending model incentivizes dealers to sell cars at inflated prices, which increases the amount XXXX pays the dealer. 5. This means the principal amounts in XXXX loans are often artificially inflated and far exceed the amount XXXX expects to collect on the loan or has paid to its dealers. And because XXXX has shifted the cost of the credit into the principal amount instead of the interest rate, consumers do not know they are paying these hidden costs of credit to finance their vehicles. 12 U.S.C. 5531 ( a ) ,5536 ( a ) ( 1 ), 5536 ( a ) ( 3 ), THEY ARE IN VIOLATION by obscuring the cost of credit for auto loans and taking unreasonable advantage of consumers lack of understanding of the risk of default and the severity of the consequences, as well as their inability to protect their interests, and for providing substantial assistance to dealers, even though XXXX knew or should have known the dealers were misrepresenting the voluntary nature of add-on products. THEY JUST HAD A BIG LAWSUIT FOR A HIGH APR RATE AND THATS WHAT THEY DID TO ME MY APR IS XXXX, FINICANCE CHARGE IS WHAT I SUPOSED TO PAY FINCANCE CHARGE IS THE SUM OF ALL CHARGES ( ALL CHARGES ) ACCORDING TO THE LAW 15 U.S. Code 1605 - Determination of finance charge WHICH STATES Examples of charges which are included in the finance charge include any of the following types of charges which are applicable : ( 1 ) Interest, time price differential, and any amount payable under a point, discount, or other system or additional charges. ( 2 ) Service or carrying charge. ( 3 ) Loan fee, finders fee, or similar charge. ( 4 ) Fee for an investigation or credit report. ( 5 ) Premium or other charge for any guarantee or insurance protecting the creditor against the obligors default or other credit loss. ( 6 ) Borrower-paid mortgage broker fees, including fees paid directly to the broker or the lender ( for delivery to the broker ) whether such fees are paid in cash or financed.

On XXXX XXXX, XXXX I XXXX XXXX XXXX went in to XXXX XXXX to purchase a vehicle. I strongly suggested to the salesman that at the time all I had for the down payment was {$2000.00} nothing more. I test drove a XXXX XXXX XXXX and like the vehicle then he offered me to drive another XXXX with fewer miles on it. I decided to stick with the car I had chosen previously. I arrived back from the test drive and i was told by the salesman that his Boss wanted me to put down another {$500.00} because he did n't feel as though he got much off of the deal of the car. He asked me could U put another {$500.00} down i told him no that I did n't have it and he said I will give you time to bring it back in he said I will give you 30 days. I told him I was n't sure to have it all by then, he said ok well bring in what you do have. Two days after driving the car I noticed there was a significant smell of oil coming through the vents. I called the dealership back and he advised me that it was because they forgot to put the top cover back on and that it was coming from that and he said bring the car back in so that we can do that. Every time I parked the car I noticed there was a big oil ring on the concrete. I made an appointment with the XXXX dealership and they advised me to take that car back and do not but it. I paid {$100.00} to have tests run on the car insuring that it was worth me buying. XXXX provided me with every thing that was wrong with car with the most major issue was there was a leak in the oil housing and it need to be fixed immediately to prevent engine damage. There was a long list of other things that also needed to be fixed as well. I talked back to the salesman that goes by the name of XXXX and he said I quote " You do not buy a XXXX car from XXXX dealership, and then take it to another XXXX to get it checked out. '' I explained to him that I had every right to do so. I asked them in this moment to please switch me out of the car and put me in another one that was better for my money since they already had the down payment of that car. They told me that I would have to speak to the finance company who is Credit Acceptance. Later that day a representative from the loan company called to do a welcome call. I spoke to her about what was going on and she said that they did n't mind me being switched out of the vehicle. She said to call the dealership and then have them to call their company and they would go from there. I waited a few days and still nothing I began to constantly call and text the salesman and ask him to be switched out. He told me that he could not because the car had been titled already which was not right. The car was not titled until last Friday XXXX XXXX, XXXX. He had told me for 3 weeks that the car had bee titled already and it was n't. I called to Credit Acceptance this morning and was advised that the previous representative that I had spoken to put in the notes that the issues I was dealing with was normal wear and tear of the car and at the time I had only drove the car all of a week when I had learned that there was so many issues with this car. I have spent money on repairs and for items such as oil, antifreeze coolant etc. This car has major issues and there is nothing that this dealership or finance company is willing to help out with. I was told by XXXX there was no way that this car had been inspected right because there was no way it would have passed the NC Emissions tests. The seller of the vehicle was very misleading and once I began to figure his false information out he continued to be very irate and curse and yell at me many times.

On XX/XX/2022, I contacted Credit Acceptance loan company concerning bank fraud/ procuring a loan fraudulently via XXXX XXXX XXXX For clarification, I was coaxed into sending paystubs to get a vehicle as a co-signer, although they were not accurate. The original primary person XXXX XXXX, was denied a loan due to his credit score, leaving him with no option but to bring someone else in. On the day of, at XXXX XXXX, XX/XX/2022, I informed the sales agent something was wrong with my work portal for my second income, and the dates were switched in our system and not displaying my check stubs. I emailed my employer while at dealership concerning the issue. I was then told to just submit what was on sight, by sales representative so they could get the vehicle to XXXX. I then informed them that the information was not accurate, and was told they would handle that. I expressed my disdain by objecting and walking out. I was then contacted by XXXX from XXXX at XXXX XXXX, for several days afterwards, for resigning loan papers and going with a different bank lender, and I declined involvement with the bank fraud. With the correct paystubs, my debt-to-income ratio would also be too high to be accepted for the loan. However, on XX/XX/2022 I was called to come in to speak with XXXX XXXX management team, XXXX XXXX, and XXXX in finance, managers. They told me a totally different story that the loan was not process due to a letter of residency needed a month ago by XXXX XXXX, and that they no longer wanted to do business with me or him, and to return the vehicle immediately, or they would issue a stolen vehicle BOLO. I was certainly under duress, because my freedom was at state. They then pressured me to find the vehicle and return it to the lot, or they would pursue Stolen Vehicle report, and would not stop until it was done. Later that evening, XXXX Police Department located the vehicle, but told XXXX whom was on the phone with me, that the dealership needed to file the police report to get back the vehicle, because I did not need to do it for my protection. I was then told by XXXX that he filed a Police Report with XXXX XXXX, XXXX Police Department, concerning the vehicle. However, on Sunday, XX/XX/2022, the vehicle was located and no such report was made, to repossess the vehicle, and on XX/XX/2022, XXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXX, called me to inform me that XXXX XXXX turned in the letter of residency, but overlooked the fraud issue. I then informed her that the deal was suppose to be off the table, per management, and what was she talking about? She advised me that she did not know about that. Once I was enlightened of the false claim of report to police and XXXX XXXX not honoring the fraud revelation, I declined to be involved any further with them and sought a higher authority to void this contract due to known fraud by the dealership. Furthermore, on XX/XX/2022 I received fraudulent documents concerning my electronic signature and initials. I did not sign up for that service nor gave authority to XXXX XXXX to sign without my knowledge to procure the loan. Electronic signature is still required by law to be given by signer not by dealership. These are fraudulent documents. Because I made the loan company and dealership aware of the issue within the three ( 3 ) day cancellation procedure, I am not and will not be held liable. In addition, I have attached the discrepancy with paystubs and email correspondence from that day proving my side. This gives grounds for automatic termination of the contract.

Credit Acceptance, Regard : Overpayment. {$10000.00} ( not including interest ) My first contact with Credit Acceptant regarding overpayment was on XX/XX/XXXX, sent to the Board of Directors for review. I did not get a response. Addressed to XXXX XXXX. The dates are as noted, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX. I have not received an update on my previous request to reduce the payoff amount and interest rate, due to overpayment. I am forced to be under a new payment plan. I have kept up with my payment agreements, and I would like to ask that you reduce the vehicle 's payoff due to the vehicle 's worth being around {$1500.00} and the high interest rate is at 23.02 %. I suggest that the vehicle 's resale value is less than the payoff of {$8700.00}. It should be reduced, along with my interest rate, monthly payment, and payoff value. I am looking forward to your immediate positive response to my concerns regarding my overpayment several times. I have provided you all with ample proof of the overpay. I have mentioned overpayment, and it was ignored in XXXX, several letters were sent out and no one would address it ( XXXX XXXX of XXXX ). XXXX XXXX, no one at the organization could reach out to you today when I returned your call. I would like my account to be resolved by Friday, XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX XXXX, there is nothing on the website that states to email the BOD. Please forward this to all management. I also, hope that you have addressed my concern regarding XXXX behavior. Per your request, you asked me to find proof of the vehicle 's value to show that the vehicle was not $ XXXX. As I stated the cash value was down to $ XXXX. I do have proof of the attachments to show that my vehicle was paid up. I did question the document and it was stated that was the financed option. Please fix my account as promised. As I have discussed with you regarding my conversation with XXXX XXXX, she stated that she did not get the fax on XX/XX/XXXX, and secondly, she needs more " proof '', that I have requested a review for overpayment in the initial stages of the loan. Although she stated I did not need to resend the information that she did not get, she would need more information. My response was that I had provided you with everything. XXXX XXXX XXXX stated that XXXX of her calls that we reviewed. I was asked if I needed any other assistance. According to her, my response was no. Why would I have to repeat an already escalated dispute that a lower-level employee would not be able to address? I am requesting my overpayment ASAP! Thank you for allowing me to continue my request since XXXX XXXX is no longer employed. XXXX XXXX XXXX, I am due for a refund and quick repair to my credit report. I have provided all the information required. I did the work for the CA staff. If they had addressed my concerns at the inception of the loan, at the purchase of my vehicle and I sent emails to XXXX, and no response. I sent several letters stating the contract was incorrect. You stated that If I find proof you all could fix it. So am asking you to fix it, please. Immediately. I am attaching proof.

On XXXX XXXX, 2015 ; I was involved in an automobile accident involving property at my apartment complex. I contacted the manager of the development and contacted the XXXX County police Department to file an report. I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to file a claim to have the damage estimated and repaired. After provident the agent with details ; an adjuster completed the estimate, and the vehicle was declared total loss. I was contacted by XXXX XXXX ( total loss adjuster ) whom attempted to take possession of the vehicle without ever offering me an opportunity to retain the vehicle as salvaged. I then proceeded to contact the lien holder ( Credit Acceptance Corporation XXXX to provide the claim number, phone number, name of adjuster and details to the accident. Over the next several weeks I was contacted repeatedly by the towing company assigned to the claim ; at which time I informed the driver that my intent was to retain the salvaged vehicle. The driver stated that he would inform XXXX XXXX of the information and removed my name from his list. After returning the requested document to XXXX XXXX, I received a telephone call stating that she would not be able to pay off the loss with that single document. She also informed me that I needed to contact credit Acceptance Corporation because there was an order of repossession placed on the vehicle. After contacting Credit Acceptance Corporation ; it was alleged by XXXX representatives in which the conversation was said to be recorded ; that Ihad stopped my automatic draft payment on XXXX XXXX, 2015 ( prior to accident ). I then contacted XXXX XXXX ( financial institution ) and spoke with a customer service representative who examined my account to confirm that I had not processed an order to stop payment or block the merchant known as Credit Acceptance Corporation. ( see attachment : establishes that a payment was processed to Credit Acceptance Corporation on or around the date of XXXX XXXX, 2015 ) The XXXX XXXX representative instructed me to contact Credit Acceptance Corporation and offer the opportunity to conference via XXXX way ( XXXX XXXX, Credit Acceptance and Myself ) and they would provide information that I did not stop payment. After contacting Credit Acceptance Corporation ; I was informed that was something they do not do and asked if I wanted to make a payment on the balance which has accrued to {$1000.00}. I then asked if I would be able to make a partial payment, and told no. I informed the representative that the stoppage of payment was a result of Credit Acceptance Corporation 's own actions. ( see attachment : Notification of Retained Vehicle stating that the insurance company has paid a total loss claim for the vehicle identified. XXXX Mercury Grand Marquis, and notified DMV that it did not acquire my vehicle as a result of the claim. Therefore I can not understand Why XXXX XXXX insisted on taking the vehicle. ) I was informed by Credit Acceptance Corporation that the company would deal directly with the insurance provider if the vehicle was repossessed. I have GAP coverage on the vehicle so there should not be any discrepancy of the lien holder receiving the figure asked for payoff, or cause an issue of financing a balance on a salvage. During the time in which Credit Acceptance Corporation claims I stopped payment ; I have not been contacted in regards to the issue. The vehicle is equipped with devices warning of time of payments and have not been utilized ; as has been in the pastChat Conversation End

This company has reported me late since XX/XX/XXXX. Per the laws because of COVID this is inaccurate information. In additional. I have made consistent payment and paid the vehicle off. Below is a copy for my formal complaint to company. Credit Acceptance Credit Dispute Dept. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MI XXXX Credit Acceptance, I am making a final goodwill attempt to have you clear up this matter. Due to the covid-19 forbearance program regulations it states that no late payments are to be reported to the financial credit bureau during the time of covids forbearance period. I have listed the late payments on my report I want removed because I'm a victim ofcovid-19 and legally you should not have put them there. Failure to comply is a direct violation of FCRA section 623, 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ; 12 CFR part 1022, subpart E. : Whenever furnishers provide information to consumer reporting agencies, they have obligations related to the accuracy and integrity of the information they furnish under the FCRA and Regulation V.5 To ensure compliance with these obligations if furnishers are reporting information to consumer reporting agencies about a credit obligation or account that is current, they should consider all of the trade line information they furnish that reflects a consumers status as current or delinquent. For example, information a furnisher provides about an accounts payment status, scheduled monthly payment, and the amount past due may all need to be updated to accurately reflect that a consumers account is current consistent with the CARES Act. Furnishers are encouraged to ensure they understand the data fields that the consumer reporting agencies to whom they report utilize and which standard data reporting formats may apply. The following account ( s ) is/are listed as being reported late. Please update them due to the forbearance program regulations. This law is as clear as daylight as to the Civil liability and the remedy available to me for negligent noncompliance ( Section 617 ) if you fail to comply with this Federal Law. I am a litigious consumer and fully intend on pursuing litigation in this matter to enforce my rights under the FCRA. I demand the following accounts be updated to accurately reflect a clean payment history. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXTANCE : - XXXX Reported Late : XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX Reported Late : XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX If your company fails to comply with federal regulations by credit reporting agencies, you will be required to appear in a court venue local to me, in order to formally defend yourself. I will also have your company investigated by the Federal Trade Commission ( see 15 USC 41, et seq. ). I am also maintaining a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC and the Attorney Generals office, should you continue in your non-compliance. I further remind you that, as in Wenger v. Trans Union Corp., No. 95-6445 ( C.D.Cal. Nov. 14, 1995 ), you may be liable for your willful non-compliance. Failure to respond satisfactorily within 30-days of receipt of this under Section 605B ( 1-4 ) will result in a small claims action against your company. I will be seeking {$5000.00} in damages for : 1. ) Defamation 2. ) Negligent Enablement of Identity Fraud 3. ) Violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act Also, I would like an updated copy of my credit report once this investigation is complete.

Credit Acceptance purposely reports erroneous and damaging information about their customers to credit bureaus. I am a co-signer on a vehicle with my son that was purchased in XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received an alert from XXXX that Credit Acceptance reported the account 30 days past due as of XX/XX/XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX was the month the last payment on the loan was due. The company was contacted, and a request was made to remove the inaccurate reporting. They were again uncooperative. As of XX/XX/XXXX, the payment due on the account was {$380.00}. As of XX/XX/XXXX, the balance owed on the account was {$660.00}. As of XX/XX/XXXX, the loan pay-off quote amount was {$440.00}. The payoff amount was good through XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX a payment in the amount of {$240.00} was made on the account. On XX/XX/XXXX a payment in the amount of {$200.00} was made on the account. On XX/XX/XXXX a payment in the amount of {$440.00} + {$3.00} processing fee was made and the loan was paid off in full. On XX/XX/XXXX, Credit Acceptance reported the account 180 days past due when it was not. In XXXX, Credit Acceptance reported the account past due twice to the credit bureaus. We've had constant issues with this predatory lender Credit Acceptance. Multiple times throughout the financing period, we've disputed their practice of reporting erroneous and damaging information to the credit bureaus. We've filed disputes with them to which some they did not respond to until after it was submitted more than once. After all of this effort, their responses have never included account records or any other data to that prove their status reporting as accurate. Filing disputes through the credit bureaus is even less effective. Credit bureaus appear to have no interest in protecting consumers or ensuring companies respond truthfully. After the onset of the COVID shutdown my son lost his job. He contacted Credit Acceptance and made a payment arrangement that modified the monthly amount due. This arrangement was called COVID Protected Status and it was fully adhered to. At the end of XX/XX/XXXX, Credit Acceptance sent an email notifying their intent to expire the COVID arrangements with account holders in less than 30 days. They instructed account holders to contact them to make arrangements or remit the remaining balance due in full for the period of the payment arrangement. My son contacted them as instructed and established new payment arrangements to continue the modified the monthly amount due. Neither time, did Credit Acceptance send out written notification confirming the arrangements, or the " COVID Protected Status ''. The customer only had the verbal confirmation of the representative they spoke with to go on. Credit Acceptance refuses to put agreements and arrangements in writing for the consumer/account holder 's records. We've encountered problems with inconsistencies with the information about the account including payment postings and payment arrangements. When we request the information which they call " notes on the account '' they often stonewall us and have even claimed the information could not be provided. This practice makes it difficult to hold them accountable. They also do not make their notes or any other information available for the customer to see when reviewing their account online. You can only view payments through a certain point in time. They also falsely claimed they had installed a kill switch in the vehicle to disable it if payment was made.

On XX/XX/XXXX I received a phone call that my account was 51 days past due. It was no way that I was 51 days past due because I had just made my payment of XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. My payment amount is {$560.00} I was told that I was very late and I needed to make a payment I asked the representative why was I 51 days past due and I had just made a payment on XX/XX/XXXX for {$560.00}. XXXX XXXX operator ID number XXXX, told me that it was a late fee of {$90.00} and that when a payment is made they take out the late fee first and then apply the rest of the principal and interest of the loan. I told her that that was not how loan companies work the late fee always goes towards the back of the loan she stated to me that we do things different here not like everybody else I requested to speak to a manager and on XX/XX/XXXX a manager called me and he told me the same thing. After we hung up I received another phone call from an agent named XXXX I told her that I would make the payment of XXXX XXXX but not the late fee she told me she would not do that and that she has dealt with me on many times I explain to her what was going on and she told me OK XXXX XXXX have a good day she never told me that my vehicle was up for repossession at all. My payment is due on the third of each month and I 'd already made my payment. So on XX/XX/XXXX the car was repossessed over the {$90.00} late fee. Looking back on my credit report I see that I 've never had on-time payments with them because of the late fees they still count on your credit as you never made the payment on time. When I called to get the car back I was told that I needed to pay {$810.00} and {$560.00} was for the payment and {$250.00} was for the repo to get the car that I never paid the late fee now for the next two months they have altered my payment to pay the fees to cover the late fees. I 've been late in the past and have never gone through this. With my other car auto loans as well as my home loan if I am late the late fees goes towards the back of the loan and not towards the front. On XX/XX/XXXX I received a phone call around XXXX XXXX from a XXXX XXXX number. It was from a XXXX XXXX in the legal department. She proceeded to tell me that he was calling in regards to the credit reporting situation on the file. She told me that the account was not close and that he should not show cloths on the reports she stated that it may be a XXXX XXXX issue or something like that. I asked her to send me a copy of every time that I was late and she stated that she could not do that. She proceeded on to tell that she was closing the case because there was nothing else that she could do for me and she offered again to send me another copy of the contract. I asked her for the Attorney name and she told me she can not give it to me because she did not know the Attorney name. I asked her to send me out a letter stating what was going to take place now she told me that a letter would not go out. He was very very rude and would not let me talk. A fair resolution would be for them to fix my credit pay the repo fee and take off the late fees that of been associated with this account. And to reimburse the account all the late fees that have been paid. Also to make sure that they change their policies regarding the repossession of vehicles for late fees and change the policy in regards to late fees been taken out of monthly payments first and take them out if an over payment is made or put at the end of the loan like most loan companies do.

The Credit Acceptance Company was granted the right to garnish my wages beginning XX/XX/XXXX. Issue one is that i had no prior knowledge of this.

Issue 3 when I agreed to obtain this vechile the loan I amount agreed to was around the XXXX dollar mark.

Then once they did repossess the vechile I continued contact, at which time I was informed XX/XX/XXXX the vechile was being sent to auction. I was informed and insured they would contact me with action price and balance left on account. At which time I was also informed that from that there would most likely be a XXXX balace due to not oweing much more towards the loan. I accepted the information and waited for futher contact on this information. Unfortunately it never came and was unable to connect with them due to time issues. ( My work start/end and their hours. So contact was never connected. ) I was continuously dircted to a voicemail. When I requested to speak with someone that was available I was left with zero information as an ending result. This was due to represnitve not having knowledge of my account. So I was left with no alternative to finding out any information. After about my XXXX call I was informed that the representative that was in charge of my loan information/ payments ect. wasnt going to be in the office for about two weeks due to prescheduled vaction time. Was informed apon her return she would contact me. It was at this point i decided to wait for her to reach out. It was at this point all contact was lost and never regained due to not fault of my own. Years later I only recive court documents that were not even sent to me personally but left to the hr department at my job to provide them. Then looking over the estmated pay off date of XX/XX/XXXX is impossible to reached. At this time I feel as though this was done without my knowledge or consent. Which takes from my income I use to provide with. Futher more punished for their lack of communication. For I made many attempts to reach out with no answer or resolution. Nor the exsact information regarding the auction price/full amount of payments deduction/ and final ptice owed. Now I am back at square 1 with the lack of communication and garnishments equaling out to 50 % deduction as well as medical and taxes. Placing great strains on ensuring the basic needs of my family are met.

Subject : Complaint Regarding Excessive Charges on Car Loan Credit Acceptance account : XXXX Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to file a complaint regarding the exorbitant charges associated with my car loan credit acceptance, which has placed a significant financial burden on me and has negatively impacted both my credit report and personal life. I urge you to investigate this matter and take appropriate action to rectify the situation. I entered into an agreement with Credit Acceptence on a car loan ACCOUNT # XXXX for the purchase of a car XXXX XXXX XXXX The original price of the car, as stated in the sales agreement, was {$16000.00}. However, I have recently discovered that the terms and conditions of the loan have led to an exorbitant cost of credit, causing me substantial financial distress. The annual percentage rate ( APR ) applied to my car loan is an astonishing 22.99 %. and now the loan is {$41000.00} This excessive interest rate has led to a total cost of credit that far exceeds the initial price of the vehicle. I find it unconscionable that I am being charged nearly three times the original cost of the car due to the exorbitant interest rate now the prices went up to. As a result, I am struggling to meet the monthly payments, which has led to late payment penalties and a decline in my credit score. The financial strain caused by this loan agreement has had a detrimental impact on my personal life as well. The stress of constantly falling behind on payments, fearing repossession, and experiencing a decline in my creditworthiness has taken a toll on my mental and emotional well-being. It has caused sleepless nights, XXXX, and a sense of hopelessness. I am seeking your assistance in rectifying this unjust situation. I kindly request that you investigate the terms and conditions of my car loan agreement and take appropriate action against Credit Acceptence for their predatory lending practices. I believe that such practices not only exploit vulnerable consumers but also undermine the principles of fair lending and consumer protection. I kindly request the following actions be taken : 1. A thorough investigation into the terms and conditions of my car loan agreement with Credit Acceptence focusing on the excessive interest rate and the resulting exorbitant cost of credit. 2. An assessment of the appropriateness and legality of the terms and conditions imposed by Credit Acceptence, particularly in relation to the applicable consumer protection laws and regulations. 3. Prompt intervention and enforcement action against Credit Acceptence, if found to have engaged in predatory lending practices, to ensure fair treatment and appropriate remedies for affected consumers. 4. Assistance in renegotiating the terms of my car loan to a more reasonable and manageable interest rate that reflects market standards and promotes affordable monthly payments. I am hopeful that, with your intervention, a resolution can be reached that alleviates the financial burden imposed on me and prevents further harm to my credit report and personal well-being. I kindly request that you keep me informed of any progress made in addressing this complaint and the steps taken to rectify the situation. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to a favorable resolution and appreciate your efforts in upholding consumer rights and ensuring fair lending practices. I attached my original car loan contract for proof Sincerely

I purchased a used vehicle on XX/XX/XXXX, from XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, De XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX. The sale price was {$8900.00}, with a warranty. Approximately two weeks after purchase, the vehicle started smoking. I notified XXXX XXXX, the saleswoman, who stated she would send a mechanic out to check it out. The person she said was the mechanic came out, checked the vehicle and stated the smoke that I noticed was condensation and to continue driving and it will stop. I Drove the vehicle for approximately a week, the smoking had worsened, the check engine light came on, and it started hesitating. Tried several times to contact the saleswoman. when she finally called me back, she gave me contact information for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX De XXXX. Called XXXX and was told it was close to the holiday and they were backed up and would not be able to check it out for a few weeks. I took the vehicle to the shop so that it would be there when they can check it. The mechanic contacted me and told me that I was sold a vehicle with a bad engine. I tried contacting XXXX several times. She finally texted me back with a message to call XXXX @ ( XXXX ) XXXX. I called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and told him what the mechanic told me. I told him they sold me a vehicle with a bad engine and he stated that is why she is no longer employed there. I asked if they would repair it and he stated they will not that's why they push the warranty to their customers. I did not agree with that and asked if they can contact the lender, Credit Acceptance, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, MI XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX to cancel the contract, This was in XX/XX/XXXX. He refused and stated I have to use my warranty to have it repaired. I contacted Credit Acceptance and they reviewed it and stated they can't cancel because it was over thirty days but it wanted to turn the vehicle in and that it would be a repossession. I called the auto shop and gave permission for them to send a diagnosis and to file a claim with the warranty company, XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX, XXXX # XXXX. This was back in XX/XX/XXXX. In XXXX I Called the Warranty Company to check the status and they informed me that they requested the auto shop to break the engine down further and send them the report. I called XXXX XXXX and he stated there is no need to break further down, the engine is bad and needs to be replaced. The auto shop and warranty company have been going back and forth since then. In XXXX, I retained an Attorney through XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, De XXXX, XXXX @ ( XXXX ) XXXX. He has been sending emails with no response and I have been calling XXXX at the auto shop, who they state is in charge of filing claims, with no response. I do not think it's right for me to continue making payments on a vehicle that I only drove for less than and have it being in the shop for almost four months. I've tried to cancel the contract because I did report the problem with the dealer but they took so long to get back to me. Also, the fact that XXXXDealership admitted that XXXX was let go because of things she was doing that they were not aware of seems that they should have been responsible. He even went as far to tell me that they were going to stop using this warranty Company because they have done this to other customers. Please let me know if there are any other steps that I can take. Thank You, XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX

Exactly one year ago, my husband and I purchased a vehicle and have it financed through Credit Acceptance Corporation. We have had our account with CAC set up on auto pay so that payments are automatically deducted from our bank account. We have NEVER missed ONE SINGLE payment. However, back in XXXX, upon the arrival of the COVID-19 pandemic, my husband was furloughed from his job and my work ( I am XXXX ) significantly dried up. As a result of this, we were unable to make our vehicle payments. I immediately contacted CAC and they disabled our auto pay so that no payments would come out of our bank account and they assured me that NO collection activity would occur because of this pandemic. I was told to simply call back when we were able to resume our normal payments and to set up an arrangement for any past due amount that we acquire. I requested that they simply defer the missed payments to the end of our loan, but they outright refused, which made no sense to me. Fast forward to today, XX/XX/2020, I reached back out to CAC to inform them that we are not ready to turn our automatic payments back on to resume our regular payments. I once again asked if they could defer the payment that we missed to the end of our loan and they told me that they " do not have the technology to be able to do this. '' Whatever. I had them add {$10.00} additional to each of our biweekly payments to go towards the past due. After setting our automatic payments back up, I received a response to an email that I had to CAC 's Office of the President. The individual who emailed me is XXXX XXXX XXXX, Senior Vice President and Assistant General Counsel of the CAC Regulatory Compliance department. She informed me that our credit report freeze was only good until XX/XX/XXXX, at which point we would be reported as 60 days late on our credit reports. I'm sorry, but this goes TOTALLY against the federal CARES Act, which states that lenders MAY NOT report consumers who have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic as late as long as their payments were current at the start of the pandemic and as long as they work out some sort of payment arrangement, WHICH WE HAVE DONE!!!!!!!!!!!! I have pointed this out to Ms. XXXX, who now absolutely refuses to respond to any of my emails. My husband and I have worked VERY hard to increase our credit scores well over 100 points over the course of this past 10-12 months and we will NOT have it completely sabotaged by these predators, who REFUSE to abide by the laws and regulations set forth by the CARES Act. We have worked FAR too hard to have our finally GOOD credit ratings destroyed by these predatory criminals, who are clearly making up their own rules as they go. We are in the process of refinancing our home and will NOT allows these scammers to ruin that for us. We are a FINANCIALLY RESPONSIBLE couple, who ALWAYS make our payments and IMMEDIATELY contacted CAC as soon as we knew that we were going to have trouble making our payments due to this pandemic. We also VERY quickly ( within about 6 weeks ) RESUMED our payments. It is COMPLETELY unfair, morally wrong, and ILLEGAL to punish hard-working, honest consumers who have been so heavily impacted by this pandemic!!! We WILL be filing a lawsuit against Credit Acceptance Corporation for any damaged that we incur by such negative credit reporting, and a copy of this complaint has also been forwarded to the Maine Attorney General 's Office of Consumer Credit Protection.

To Whom It May Concern : Summary I am writing this letter to request that my credit profile be corrected. While your system may reflect late payments, I have identified several inaccuracies throughout the history of this loan which would nullify those negative marks. Attached you will find documentation showing the difference between the purchase price of my vehicle, the initial amount reported to the credit agencies, and the initial balance recorded in the system of Credit Acceptance Corporation. While these may appear to be minor discrepancies or potential mistakes, recent litigation in several states have identified a pattern of predatory lending, the inflation of balances, hidden charges, the forceful adding of additional products to the loan, as well as several other procedures which violate the TRUTH IN LENDING ACT, as well as the FAIR CREDIT REPORTING ACT. Description of Situation I initially financed my vehicle through CAC ( Credit Acceptance Corporation ) in the fall of XXXX with an initial purchase price of {$15000.00}. I paid a down payment of {$3000.00}. This should have made the financed price {$12000.00}. However the balance reported initially to the credit agencies was {$16000.00} ( which I was told was due to taxes and fees and a warranty due to the high mileage of the vehicle ), while the initial balance in CACs system was recorded as {$26000.00}. For a vehicle to be financed at {$12000.00}, and ultimately cost over {$26000.00}, after being paid off over 6 months early, violates the usury law in the state of Tennessee. My research has shown that CAC has already been held liable in the state of Massachusetts and is engaged in current litigation with the state of New York, as well as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau for charges identical to those I have outlined throughout my own personal experience. In the fall of XXXX, I looked to finance a vehicle to not only have reliable transportation, but also to build credit as I looked to purchase a home in the future. I was unaware of the situation that I was placing myself in. CAC has reported over 30 payments as late, ( most of which say 120 days ) even during the period of time that should have been covered under the CARES act during XXXX, and essentially have destroyed my credit profile even though I ultimately paid off the vehicle, and also did so over 6 months early. Even after I paid off the remaining balance on XX/XX/XXXX, to end this dreadful situation, I still was reported late as of XX/XX/XXXX. I have exhausted the dispute process with CAC and have been unsuccessful due to the inaccurate recording of balances, payments, and other information within CACs system. However, this particular creditor has demonstrated the ability to, and the practice of manipulating their own systems, violating consumer rights, and other unfair and illegal practices in an effort to improve and sustain a certain financial bottom line. Resolution I request the deletion of ALL negative remarks on my CAC account with all 3 credit agencies due to their inaccuracy. Unfortunately, this situation has placed me in a position where I can not move forward without reconciliation. While I am frustrated and distraught with the position that this matter has placed me in, and I am well aware of the fact that I was taken advantage of, I have faith in your agency. I have faith that you will assist me and do what is just. I look forward to your response. Thank You In Advance,

On XX/XX/XXXX, I purchased a XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX ( VIN : XXXX ) in XXXX, NY at XXXX XXXX XXXX. The list price was {$10000.00}. I put down {$4500.00} in cash and traded in a grey XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX valued at {$500.00}. I was told that because of my credit, my total finance amount would be {$17000.00} and that I was approved. At the time I was leaving an abusive marriage, and desperately needed a vehicle my husband at the time could not recognize. My payment was set at {$480.00} month. I was told that this was due to finance charges but once I paid the {$17000.00}, Id own the vehicle. Since then my vehicle has been repod four times for late payment with additional fees, which Credit Acceptance said could be paid over one year at $ XXXX/monthly instead of $ XXXX/monthly. The first repossession took place after informing the company Id need an additional two weeks to pay due to being off from work for a month ( illness ). The last three repossessions occurred after informing the company that I was out on XXXX for over a year and fell behind. I was unable to make two payments of {$480.00} a month to catch up, which would mean paying {$970.00} a month. Id pay the standard {$480.00} but that did not stop my vehicle from being taken. I recently returned to work and informed Credit Acceptance of this. My vehicle was last taken on XX/XX/XXXX. It was a nightmare. I am a XXXX employee and almost lost my job because I was unable to get to work. I reside in XXXX, NY but work an hour and a half away in XXXX XXXX, NY. I was told that I needed to submit another standard {$480.00} payment in XX/XX/XXXX. I paid {$370.00} initially which was {$110.00} short and then submitted a payment of {$500.00} after Credit Acceptance threatened to pick my car up and auction it. I was told that it wasnt enough and canceled that payment, because I literally did not have anymore money to give to them for the month of XX/XX/XXXX. My vehicle was repossessed and I was told Id need to pay the total remaining {$8700.00} balance and I could have my vehicle. I then told the representative that if I couldnt make two payment of $ XXXX/monthly then I certainly couldnt pay the {$8000.00} to get the vehicle back and told them they could keep the car. I initially did not think the vehicle was repod because when the company claimed they picked the car up, it was still where I had left it. They failed to report the repo to the local police department. The representative then informed that Ive already paid {$25000.00} in to this vehicle ; however the vehicle was initially $ XXXX and jumped to nearly XXXX. I dont understand why Im still paying for a car that shouldve been paid off. Credit Acceptance told me to take it up with the dealership but they have since closed. All of a sudden I was told that I could pay {$740.00} to get the car back. I was in a rental at the time and agreed as I desperately needed to be able to get to work ( I work in the field ). I picked up my vehicle after sending them the payment via XXXX XXXX. My vehicle was more than an hour from where I live which cost me even more money. I have one year left to pay the new monthly payment of {$500.00}. Please assist, as I have already paid for this vehicle. I was only given the documents I signed and have attached them to the complaint. I was advised by my union that I could secure an attorney through them for this matter, as it appears that something fraudulent took place.

XX/XX/2020 I get up for work to find that my car wont start. I call XXXX to find out about the factory warranty still available on the car and based on the VIN on the car it was still available for the repairs. I get the car to XXXX later that night by tow and they then give me a loaner car for the inconvenience. XX/XX/2020 I Receive the diagnostic from XXXX to an extent. XXXX tells me that an accident had occurred in my vehicle in which the Airbags had been deployed and that they can not service the vehicle because it is no longer under warranty. Now we get to the matter at hand. XX/XX/2020 After finding that the car is no longer under warranty due to an issue that was unknown prior to me buying the vehicle, I call the extended warranty that I purchased for XXXX through a company called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX FL XXXX. This company tells me that they would have been happy to acknowledge my warranty but due to the airbag issue on the car they administer the work on the car. At that point I tell them I want to cancel the warranty because me buying for this warranty does me no good if I can't use it, so they then tell me that instead of the refund returning to me as it should that it will then be sent to my lending contract and be added to the total cost of my vehicle. I should have never been able to even purchase this warranty because this was an issue prior to me buying the car that I was unaware of. me having to pay for it when I bought the car means I should then be getting the refund for it as well.. On XX/XX/2020 that same evening I contact the Dealer - Mark over at XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX While talking to them, I explain everything that i cant get the car fixed using my warranty due to the fact that an airbag had been deployed on the vehicle in an accident prior to me having the car and that I need my contract resented because the car should have then never been able to be sold to me. He then tells me that no airbag had ever been deployed on the vehicle and that I need to contact the financing company because its " out of his hands ''. Basically acknowledging to me that this accident had happened and never been reported on the VIN before I bought the car. If the airbag had been deployed on the car, the title and VIN on the vehicle would have said SALVAGE meaning I should have never been able to buy it. XX/XX/2020 I then contact my financing company which is CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION I begin to explain that I need my contract to be Resent because the car that was sold to me was sold Illegally. I tell them about the everything prior to this phone call, and they then tell me that they do not finance vehicles that have salvage titles and that they have no records of the vehicle being in an accident in which the airbags had been deployed. They agree that the vehicle shouldnt have been financed through them, Let alone sold by the dealer. Im still telling them that I want my contract to be resent and that I deserve a refund for the full total that ive spent on the car from the down payment, to the taxes, to the payments up to this point and that this needs to be wiped from my credit report and the car given baxk to the dealer. They then tell me that I cant get the loan cancelled on the vehicle, even though it should have legally never happened to begin with! This is what led to me contact other help!

I purchased my vehicle on XX/XX/XXXX and financed it with Credit Acceptance Corporation, essentially right at the beginning of the pandemic. I financed {$16000.00} on a 51 month note at 23 % with my first payment due on XX/XX/XXXX. My monthly payment amount is {$510.00}. I made my first ( 3 ) payments timely ( XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX ) and fell a little behind in XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX, however, was able to catch my payments up entirely in XX/XX/XXXX. Throughout XXXX, I typically made payments in full or payments bi-weekly. Unfortunately, however, Credit Acceptance, is not accurately reporting my payment history on my credit. From XXXX, they did not report any information at all to my credit! It literally states " no data ''. XX/XX/XXXX reflects my payment made on-time, then beginning XXXX XXXX XXXX, which is what has been reported to date, it reflects my payments as not current. This is not accurate whatsoever. In XX/XX/XXXX, my wife and I both contracted XXXX and I was out of work for 3 weeks from XXXX. Then, on XX/XX/XXXX, I was diagnosed with XXXX and had to have XXXX to remove the XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and was out of work for another two weeks ; through XX/XX/XXXX. I contacted Credit Acceptance about this situation and asked if I could obtain some sort of relief via a forbearance, deferment, etc. and I was advised that they were not offering any help whatsoever relative to XXXX relief. Who wouldn't be respectful to a national pandemic and offer some sort of relief? However, in XX/XX/XXXX, they had me set up weekly payments to auto draft every Friday in the amount of {$150.00}, over the next 6 months and advised me that once those 6 months arrangement was up, my account would be current, and they would report it as such. Mind you, {$150.00} weekly at 4 = {$600.00} / month and is {$83.00} more than what my monthly payment is at {$510.00}. The weekly payments have continued to be drafted from my bank account to date, yet my account status with my credit and according to their records reflect that I owe {$3700.00}, not including my upcoming payment, due XX/XX/XXXX. This would reflect that I am 7.25 months behind on my payments, despite making weekly payments of {$150.00} per week since XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX. Credit Acceptance is also reporting that my current payoff is {$14000.00}. If my payoff was {$14000.00}, that would reflect that I have only made 11 monthly payments on my vehicle since I purchased it 31 months ago. 31 months of a 51-month contract. Even going with the alleged 7.25 months behind on my payments, per their records, my current payoff would be {$11000.00}. There is absolutely no way I am 7+ months behind. I have not received a single statement from Credit Acceptance, EVER. I can not pull up my payment history on their website at all. And have no idea what my true status is! What are they hiding? Credit Acceptance is RUINING my credit. Not accurately tracking my payments and has horrible reviews by many customers! They have 1 star out of 5 stars on XXXX with 73 customers reviewed. 1.15 out of 5 stars with XXXX with 244 customers reviewed. Have had 737 complaints with the XXXX in the last 3 years! As well as 1.7 out of 5 stars with XXXX XXXX out of 101 reviews. With that many negative reviews, it can't all be the customers! This is not right and needs to be corrected before I lose my vehicle that I have invested so much money into, am paying 23 % interest on and have added {$10000.00} in upgrades to.

On XX/XX/2020, I went to XXXX XXXX XXXX located in XXXX, LA to purchase a vehicle. Upon being allegedly approved, I was advised that I had to put a deposit of {$4500.00} in order to drive the vehicle off the lot. XXXX XXXX is in violation of multiple federal and state violations and non-compliance matters regarding the automobile consumer credit transaction contract between XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX regarding the XXXX XXXX XXXX. Infringements pertaining to the CFPB 1026.4 Finance Charge Non-Compliance of Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) 15 U.S.Code 1601 et seq Federal Law/ Violations of Regulation Z- Federal Reserve Regulation.

( iv ) The effects of rescission, as described in paragraph ( d ) of this section. ( v ) The date the rescission period expires. ( 2 ) Proper form of notice. To satisfy the disclosure requirements of paragraph ( b ) ( 1 ) of this section, the creditor shall provide the appropriate model form in appendix H of this part or a substantially similar notice. XXXX XXXX XXXX failed to provide me with ANY written disclosures pertaining to my right to rescind within a certain time frame. My main complaint is the violation of TILA Determination of Finance charge can not be cash and credit. I was charged an illegal down payment of {$4500.00} related to this consumer credit transaction. I have reached out to XXXX XXXX XXXX several times with a Notice of Dispute and an Affidavit of Truth in which they did not respond to either documents.

Credit Acceptance Corporation Subject : Demand for Return of Vehicle and Refund of Funds Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to bring your attention to a matter of utmost importance regarding the retail installment contract I entered into with Credit Acceptance Corporation . It has come to my attention that there have been serious legal and ethical violations in the execution of this agreement, which necessitates immediate action to rectify the situation. First and foremost, I must assert that I never received any monetary funds from Credit Acceptance Corporation as stipulated in the retail installment contract. No checks or funds were disbursed to me for the purpose of purchasing the vehicle in question. This raises serious concerns about the legitimacy of the contract and the actions taken by Credit Acceptance Corporation. Upon further investigation, it has become clear that Credit Acceptance Corporation engaged in fraudulent misrepresentation by acting under the color of law. I was led to believe that I was signing a contract to obtain a loan for the vehicle, when in reality, I unknowingly signed a contract as a surety or accommodation party. This fraudulent inducement deprived me of the opportunity to make an informed decision and violated my rights as a consumer. By creating a fraudulent debt in my public name, Credit Acceptance Corporation has engaged in a form of identity theft, which is a serious offense under UCC 3.419. This action has caused significant distress and financial harm to me. I demand that you immediately cease all collection efforts related to this fraudulent debt and take immediate steps to rectify the situation. Therefore, I request the following actions be taken : 1. Return of Vehicle : I demand the immediate return of the vehicle that was unlawfully obtained from me. The vehicle 's details are as follows : - Make XXXX XXXX XXXX Model : XXXX - XXXX - Vehicle Identification Number ( VIN ) XXXX XXXX. Refund of Funds : I insist on a full refund of any and all funds that Credit Acceptance Corporation has received from me, as I did not receive any monetary funds as per the terms of the contract. 3. Cessation of Collection Efforts : I expect that all collection efforts related to the fraudulent debt associated with this contract are immediately halted. This includes contacting me, reporting the debt to credit bureaus, or engaging any third-party debt collectors. 4. Acknowledgment of Liability : I demand that Credit Acceptance Corporation formally acknowledge its liability for the fraudulent actions and misrepresentations that have occurred in relation to this contract. I expect a prompt response to this letter and a resolution to this matter within 30days from the date of your receipt of this correspondence. Failure to comply with these demands may leave me with no choice but to pursue legal remedies available to me, which may include filing complaints with regulatory authorities and seeking legal representation to protect my rights. Please be advised that I have retained copies of all relevant documentation, including the retail installment contract, for my records and potential future legal proceedings. I trust that Credit Acceptance Corporation will take this matter seriously and act promptly to rectify the injustices that have been committed. I look forward to your prompt response and a satisfactory resolution of this matter. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

I was just denied an extension of credit because of SEVERAL inaccurately furnished late payments by CREDIT ACCEPTANCE. These inaccurately furnished late payments are an invasion of my right to privacy and is causing me severe XXXX and extreme XXXX. XXXX has made it clear that each financial institution has an affirmative and continuing obligation to respect the privacy of its customers and to protect the security and confidentiality of those customers nonpublic personal information. Credit Acceptances failure to maintain the integrity of my nonpublic information has caused me substantial harm and inconvenience to my financial reputation due to this fraudulently furnished late payment without my lawful authority. XXXX has also stated that unfair credit reporting undermines public confidence, which XXXX has made clear, is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. Credit Acceptance is reporting my transactions and experiences, and this is a violation of my consumer rights and the FCRA. Pursuant to 15 USC 1681a ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ), reported information can not be only transactions and experiences between the consumer, I, and a company, Credit Acceptance. A late payment is a transactional history. XXXX clearly states that the reporting of transactions or experiences between the CONSUMER and the PERSON making the report is not included on the consumer reports! These late payments are clearly a billing error. Take notice that I am aware that if a finance charge is involved then there should be no " late payments '' .I am also aware that a consumer must be given a chance to direct whether they want the information about the transaction to be reported or not. I was never given the opportunity to opt out of having this reported information about CREDIT ACCEPTANCE XXXX. Pursuant 15 U.S. Code 1666b ( a ), A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open-end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose. Pursuant to 15 U.S. Code 1602 ( l ), a credit card means any card, plate, coupon book or other credit device existing for the purpose of obtaining money, property, labor, or services on credit. I partook in a consumer credit transaction and my social security card was used to obtain property on credit, which is my right. If Credit Acceptance can not provide me with proof such as a tracking number or a certified mail return receipt bearing my wet signature that THEY adopted reasonable procedures to ensure my periodic statement was delivered to me no later than 21 days before the payment due date, these alleged late payments must be removed. Until the requested documentation is received, this request for documentation shall be treated as a billing error and an erroneously billed amount under section 1666 of title 15. Credit Acceptance, as the creditor, may not collect any disputed amount. As a federally protected consumer, the creditor can not restrict, accelerate payment, close an account and or make or threaten any adverse reporting to any person about the consumer 's credit standing without resolving the billing error. I am demanding the following late payments are UPDATED to PAID AS AGREED and a DELETION of each late payment is submitted to the credit reporting agencies immediately in order to prevent me from receiving more harm as a result of the fraud that has taken place. Also, do not add any more of my transactional history to my consumer reports.

I got a car through a dealership that works with credit acceptance. A lot of the information in the contract was difficult for me to review as the sale was rushed and brief. I may have missed some key components. This car came with no XXXX but, I was willing to take the chance as the seller promised a lot of success with the transaction. I was told things on the vehicle were up to date. It ended up needing a new radiator a day after getting it using a XXXX deposit on a warranty. About 3 weeks after having the car it was hit and run will parked in front of my residence. Before I was able to get it into assess damages it was hit again in a 3 car accident while legally parked at my residence. This time it had to be towed as I was in my residence XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and had also could not be behind the wheel of a motor vehicle due to medications I was taking at the time. A few days later I contacted credit acceptance to try to renegotiate or figure out a reasonable resolution in the case that the car still had a balance. I was informed that the contract would remain and the only option I had was pay it in full or be sued. Even if the car is a total loss Im assuming there will be balance left over. During the inquiry about this vehicle via XXXX through a dealer that had it priced @ {$1.00}. I asked for the price I never got a straight answer. I informed the seller that it seemed to be a lot of secrecy I asked for the tag price and was told either to finance with them or lose the chance of having the car if told the price of the vehicle. Considering that this was the only seller that offered me financing after being denied from XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, my personal credit union, and many others for credit lines as little as {$100.00} due to lack of credit history over the last 10 yrs I gave it a chance. The sales agent offered to drive a hour and a half to bring me to his dealership which was appreciated when we got to the office he only had me review the paperwork and whatever needed to be signed electronically was not presented to me. He claimed he was making it quick and easy that everything would work out and it was pretty straightforward just make my payment and refinance when I built some credit. Im still unsure of the exact details of the contract down to the price of the vehicle. I was only given estimates via XXXX ( where it was marked at {$1.00} which the seller informed me it was just the down payment ) and Text of approximate amounts I brought it down from XXXX to a little under XXXX for you. He claimed that Id be paying the minimum amount over the phone but, at the dealership he threw in a lot of extras and possible 72 month term and basically having to pay the full amount of the car brand new and a lot of fancy talk about how to lower payments and get a better rate but, since the car is now at a tow yard I will not be presented with that chance. If there is anyone who could provide me with info on how to lower my payments so that I am able to pay for my essentials please feel free to contact me via email ( XXXX ) or phone XXXX. In the XXXX thread we talked about financing in house which was not the case I was financed at a different rate through the 3rd party credit acceptance .I was told by the dealer to not contact them for anything in regards to the vehicle. Also not to tell the warranty company about anything I noticed at the dealerships in regards to the car.

Hello, Id like to file a complaint with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, along with Credit Acceptance Corporation. On XX/XX/XXXX I started a new car loan on a XXXX XXXX XXXX. My amount financed was {$16000.00}. I was rushed through the process of buying a car, as me and my co-signer were not allowed to read what we were ( electronically ) signing. ( we were only allowed to check boxes. ) Our dealer offered brief explanations, but said we could not read it as it needed to be signed electronically before being printed out. We were told I was going to have a 15 % interest rate by the salesmen, as the only creditor that would finance me was Credit Acceptance Corporation. After signing all the paperwork and going home, I was reviewing the paperwork a few days later and saw my interest rate was 22.9 %. My total amount I have to pay back is {$29000.00} for my car. This information was not disclosed to me, I was not allowed to read it. I went back to the car lot to try to return my car, as there is a paper I signed for the fees of a cancelled car deal. Prior to going there, I called credit acceptance to see about canceling the deal. They said it was an option, and it was up to the dealer if I could cancel the deal. I went to the dealership ready to pay these ludicrous fees so I wouldnt be trapped in this loan. When I got there, the dealer coincidentally couldnt get ahold of credit acceptance to verify that I could cancel a deal. ( Although credit acceptance said I could cancel it. ) It got to the point where the salesmen, along with his fellow salesmen, were screaming at me and my mother and refusing to take my car back. They were literally in our face, yelling. After things calmed down, he told me I can refinance in 6 months and my interest rate will go down, along with my loan length. After a year of making payments on time in hopes of refinancing, I find out I will never be able to refinance. My payoff is still XXXX dollars. My car isnt even worth {$9000.00}. I was not offered gap insurance. If I follow my payment schedule, I will still be paying {$22000.00} until my loan is over. The dealer also falsified my down payment amount, to make me eligible for a extended warranty which I also had to pay for. Since I am unable to refinance my loan, I am unable to get out of my loan. If the information was disclosed properly, I would have never put myself in this situation. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, but more importantly Credit Acceptance Corporation are designed to rush the car buying process, and the target people who are unaware. They also do not disclose that you barely pay any of the principal of your loan, and almost all interest until the end of your 66 month loan. There is not an option to pay extra towards the principal of your loan. Its a shady creditor for shady dealerships. On the dealer section of Credit Acceptance website, it tells them they will finance anyone. None of the information I was told, lined up with information I signed for. We were deceived, and taken advantage of. Im trapped between a rock and a hard place. I also just read on my paperwork for when I received my car, that I had the right to return the vehicle to the dealer if I did not receive a certificate of title within 31 days. ( It is a dealer title affidavit, will provide signed copy. ) I have yet to receive one, as after them blowing up on me and my mother we have not been in contact.

After buying the car in XX/XX/XXXX, I later found that the car had electrical malfunctions, dealer recalls and countless issues. In the summer of XXXX, a few months later the dealer replaced my battery because the electrical issue. In XXXX of XXXX, I decided with the above issues to trade in my car for a newer vehicle. In XX/XX/XXXX, I then applied for a new car loan at the dealership where I purchased the car, which allowed me to trade in the car. They gave me a conditional approval. I then returned to the dealership early XXXX with the deposit and conditions to finalize the approval. The dealership ran my credit a second time. It wasn't until I met with the finance manager I learned that the terms and conditions they gave me could not be upheld. THAT MEANT I WAS STUCK WITH THE CAR, WHICH WAS UPSIDE DOWN DUE TO SUBPRIME LENDING RATE, NEGATIVE EQUITY AND ITS VALUE BEING WELL BELOW THE LOAN AMOUNT. On XX/XX/XXXX, I called Credit Acceptance Corporation and advised them that I was requesting a voluntary repossession. I provided the location of the vehicle, which was the dealership that I purchased the XXXX XXXX XXXX and where the loan was originated. After confirming the information over the phone on the XXXX of XXXX, I was told that the car would be picked up. I called several times on the XXXX and XXXX of XXXX and they confirmed that the vehicle was in process of being picked up by the tow truck. The dealership, XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX asked that I come and drop off the vehicle 's keys because they had received confirmation that the vehicle was being picked up by Credit Acceptance. So I had good faith that everything was going to be taken care of as promised by Credit Acceptance. During the Covid pandemic, there was no communication by mail, electronically or phone by Credit Acceptance. Thereafter, in early XX/XX/XXXX I called Credit Acceptance after noticing on my credit report that the balance was increasing and reporting further delinquency. When I called I spoke to several representatives including a supervisor named XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. She told me that the vehicle was scheduled to be picked up on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX for whatever reason it wasn't. I did my due diligence and Credit Acceptance failed to do theirs. She told me that she will schedule a pick-up. Then I called again on XX/XX/XXXX to follow up and spoke to a XXXX with ID # XXXX. She said that a decision was made not to pick up the car, without any explanation. No explanation and wanted a full payment for the car. I then asked for a supervisor and she scheduled a call back. A supervisor named XXXX called me and then left a message. I called back and left a message for XXXX and asked for a return call. She never called me. So I called again on XX/XX/XXXX, and spoke to a rep. XXXX and confirmed my account information to file a complaint. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED AND DISGUSTED that Credit Acceptance will be this negligent. In the meantime, my credit is continuously being adversely affected, which is can prevent me from getting employment, another car or residence post Covid-19. This is egregious and predatory that financial institutions can take advantage of a consumer in this way. I have had a loan with the Credit Acceptance in XXXX and paid it in full. I am a returning customer that has been treated very badly and unfairly due to circumstances outside of my control.

I went to XXXX XXXX in XXXX, AZ to purchase a vehicle. I previously purchased a vehicle 8 years ago when it was XXXX XXXX. But, I did not have a good experience with a recent purchase. The salesman, XXXX XXXX, was misleading in the information he gave me about the financing and refinancing of the vehicle. The vehicle was more than XXXX XXXX XXXX value as confirmed by my bank and another dealer. I could not get alternate financing for the vehicle because of it. Now I am in a vehicle with extremely high financing rate and payments that I can not afford. I told XXXX several times I wanted to wait to get things straight with the bank and was pressured to move forward with the deal based on information he told me about the financing and refinancing of the vehicle. The purchase was made on XXXX/XXXX/15 and when we called on XXXX/XXXX/15 and went there we were told that the Manager ( who I assume is XXXX XXXX ) would not approve of taking the vehicle back. The circumstances and dealings with XXXX XXXX are shady and not very honorable. I have contacted the finance company which is Credit Acceptance as well as the Office of the Attorney General to file a complaint. There was also hidden damage on the vehicle under the front license plate. This was not seen since they had their dealership plate covering the damage. XXXX XXXX uses Credit Acceptance as a finance company for their sales. They force deals on you with Credit Acceptance by doing the " verification '' process and they receive direct funding in day as stated by XXXX XXXX who ( owner/salesman of XXXX ) and is a " featured dealer '' on the Credit Acceptance website for advertising purposes. They asked for my bank statements. pay stubs, etc. that very day so they could get paid immediately and the deal is funded. This completes the verification process and assures that XXXX will be paid immediately on their deal regardless if they have misrepresented information or used predatory sales/credit practices. Credit Acceptance 's " Portfolio Program '' that XXXX participated in allows them to receive an up-front profit and to share in collections. The owner/salesman XXXX XXXX will do everything possible to close the deal to the point of falsifying most everything he can to put you in a car with the highest interest rates he can because of the funding he receives from Credit Acceptance. I have contacted Credit Acceptance on XXXX/XXXX/15, XXXX/XXXX/15, XXXX/XXXX/15 with regard to this situation. No one has returned my calls ( including XXXX XXXX -- XXXX ). I sent a complaint also to Credit Acceptance 's customer service to get this resolved and have not received any contact. My bank, XXXX, has temporarily issued a credit for the deposit that I put down but that is until they complete their own investigation so it may not be permanent. XXXX XXXX was stalling on the deal to with me telling that he had already been paid/funded ( XXXX/XXXX/15 ). There was nothing I could do about it because the Credit Acceptance contract would not cancelled/revocable once accepted. We tried again on XXXX/XXXX/15 to return the vehicle and was told by XXXX that he would have it towed if we left it there. I have contacted my financial institution, Credit Acceptance, XXXX, FTC, AZ Attorney General, and a local TV station to assistant with this situation to get an acceptable resolution.

Today was my second call within the year to XXXX XXXX XXXX to try to answer some questions and resolve an all-around horrible lending practice from the start. Starting 2013 when I proudly walked into the dealership with {$2000.00} down for $ XXXX vehicle. I was ready to be back on my toes and thought there was no way this couldn't be affordable for me. The " trusted '' sales associate states " Credit Acceptance will not finance without with service warranty & GAP ''. My father warned/said don't buy it but I caved because I wanted to be proud as a XXXX mother of XXXX. Now nothing is how I had planned walking into that situation. Gas prices jump, I drive 70 miles round trip for work, I'm stuck with a vehicle I can't afford that I should have been able to. Shame on me for trusting my friends step-dad ( XXXX ). My insurance lapsed because I can't afford it. I get in a horrible accident, I borrow money from 401k to fix it but I'm still sinking. I finally let it go, I don't defend my judgement bc once again, I believe it will be fair. Only to find out, I was taken for every red cent. Salt in the wound. Years later only to find out that I was misled/lied to from the jump, I didn't have to pay for those things & maybe I wouldn't have sank. I've called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX twice. Initially, to see how I can end this haunting experience & move on with my life. The worst part is I'm now third company in ( XXXX, Credit Acceptance, XXXX XXXX XXXX ) and the deceit hasn't stopped. First time calling I would reference the payments made ( garnishments ) and she continued to taunt me stating I didn't make those payments and they were taken under garnishment, refusing to acknowledge that regardless they were total payments. I requested settlement offers, she said I had to give an offer while refusing to acknowledge the garnishments as payments from me. Today I was requesting detail on how a credit was established in my " Explanation of Deficiency '' and was given a big run around. " I'm sorry, I wouldn't know what you were referring to ''. " Remember, we are a law office, we wouldn't have that information ''. " Sounds like something Credit Acceptance sent you ''. When asked if she could get access her response " I could probably try to find it ''. Playing a if the LAW office who presented the judgement to the courts would not have this on file? Deceit. She ended with " So you want validation? '' I said " No, I want clarification ''. It took be 34 years to fully understand my rights. I'm not thrilled that lies & deceit are still being practiced in the debt collection offices. Both times my requests were ignored and tried to construe the requests and make me agreeable to less than I was asking for. Please rectify. I put my life on hold and buying a house because of this mess. Started by one person, to a company who would allow such horrible borrowing practices, to a LAW firm who doesn't care why so many people failed with this type of lending/ company and supports their decision to sue for all {$8000.00} interest on {$10000.00} car and still charges me $ XXXX/day that it's unpaid. Also prior to court hearing, I informed XXXX XXXX XXXX to contact my bankruptcy lawyer going forward, to which my understanding they did not, and continued with the judgement request unbeknownst to him.

Dear Consumer Protection Bureau, I am writing to you in regards to a case of inaccurate information being reported on my credit report and the refusal of both the credit bureaus and the creditor- Credit Acceptance to correct or clarify the reported status of such account on my credit report. The current status reported on my credit report has negative implications that impact me both financially and psychologically. I am contacting you as a last resort to help me mitigate this error with the creditor. Below are the steps i attempted to take to correct this matter and I documented them as follows : Initially, I was notified of an account on my credit report being 180 days past due. Knowing I did not have a current account 180 days past due I submitted an initial inquiry to the credit bureaus for clarification of the status of this account. it was brought to my attention that this was the same account as a derogatory car loan that I cosigned for my sister in XX/XX/XXXX. However the account was closed and marked as collection. I have contacted the credit bureaus on XXXX XXXX to request to correct the inaccuracy of this account showing open and 180 days past due since XXXX of XXXX but to no success. I have contacted the original creditor by means of certified mail XX/XX/XXXX USPS tXXXX # XXXX to ask to correct the status of this account ( this account is not an open account nor is 180 days past due ) I received no response. On XX/XX/XXXX I made a call to creditor to inquire the outcome. I have been told by the customer service representative in collection department that they did receive my request and response has been sent to a different address not the one I clearly indicated in the letter to be contacted at. Led me to believe no one has actually red through letter or paid any attention what was asked from them. After clarifying the address issue I again relayed the violation Fair Credit Reporting Practices regarding the status of the account changed from Collection status to a OPEN ,180 days late from XX/XX/XXXX through current day ( XX/XX/XXXX ) without any arrangements or payments made. They sent me a form to fill out and to send to their reporting dispute department listing specifically what I dont agree with and request to explain or correct. I filled out the form with complete and detailed statements that the account status can not be reopened without any arrangement actually made. Ive mailed it back to the creditor on XX/XX/XXXX via certified mail tracking number # XXXX On XX/XX/XXXX I got a really general and short response dated XX/XX/XXXX stating Credit Acceptance is in receipt of your credit reporting dispute. Based on our investigation, we have concluded that the information provided by Credit Acceptance to the credit reporting agencies is complete and accurate and doesnt require modification, deletion, or other correction Without any detailed explanation or any specific details regarding sudden change of status. In fact if you look at the Date of Status it has not been updated since XX/XX/XXXX at all. These actions do affect my credit as it looks like I have an open car loan when in fact its been closed. This is outright a bullying method to force people to contact you and try to collect for debt that has passed any legal statute of limitations.

Credit Acceptance continues to report inaccurate damages to my credit report in which I have no vehicle to date and can not purchase a vehicle due to Credit Acceptance unverifiable credit reporting based on the dealership ( XXXX ) deception and fraud practices. Credit Acceptance is reluctant to explain in detail my concerns and resolve dealership fraud. I have no vehicle and Credit Acceptance have no clue of where the vehicle is located, but they continue to harass and forward me letters stating I owe $ 4,000+ money to them. From my understanding, all other dealerships would have confiscated the vehicle, sold it, and forward me a judgment for the difference. I have not received nothing to date. I would like to detailed explanation addressing my concerns in detail.

In XXXX of this year, I started a journey on trying to purchase my first new home. When my credit was pulled on XX/XX/XXXX, through XXXX only. Three days later, on XX/XX/XXXX, a tri-merge credit report was pulled. Each of these credit pulls had indicated that my charged off loan with Credit Acceptance with a credit rating of a 9. I have been diligently working on the items that are in my control to help get me one step closer. I had completed a long list of actions to help better improve my likelihood of getting approved. Upon completion, I had informed my lender that Id like to re-pull credit to see what progress has been made. On XXXX XXXX, my credit was pulled again. To my surprise, my account with Credit Acceptance went from being a closed account with a 9 rating, to an open account with a 5 rating. I had contacted XXXX, the company that my lender pulled each credit report through. I wanted to request information on my credit profile and ask for a copy of each pull. I was informed that in XXXX, all three bureaus had a collection/charge off reported on this account. Furthermore, it was explained to me that in the months of XXXX and XXXX, all three bureaus have changed the status of this account with a rating of 5 which is 120 days past due. I had requested a copy of my credit report through all three bureaus directly. I went to the section on where soft inquires are conducted and notices a pull from a company named XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. I had reached out to this company and refused to provide any of my personal information. I was able to gather that this company can serve as a third-party debt collector who collects on a clients behalf, along with being the owner of debts purchased. I had asked if Credit Acceptance is one of their clients. Albeit the response was vague, the rep stated that shes seen that company before, and then tried again to validate me to see if I had a debt placed in their office. I didnt want to provide this information and kindly ended my call. My lender had reviewed the hard data from each report and had conducted inquiries with a simulator that is provided through XXXX based on my initial report. The score simulations were based on the actions that I had taken since that pull and what the score would be. Being each bureau had this account reflected as closed, the actions the were taken wouldve put me within reach of being pre-approved. He did indicate that the simulators are not a guarantee and that any negative changes could change the outcome of those numbers. He then ran simulations on the new report, doing nothing more than changing the reporting status of Credit Acceptance back to a 9 rating. Per my lender and to my surprise, that action alone simulated my score within five points of the simulations preformed on my XXXX credit pull. I've included a snip of each account to show the differences of each. It seems to coincidental that this status was changed right after my credit was pulled for a mortgage to a rating that has now changed the outcome of what Ive been working towards. With nothing changing on my end, I dont understand how an account went from being closed in XX/XX/2018. I feel that this is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act as this isnt accurate reporting.

After reaching out to my financing company XXXX XXXX, they advised that this is a problem I needed to take up with the dealership -- now they are both throwing each other under the bus. The lack of professionalism on both behalf 's is unacceptable and I simply would like the situation at hand resolved prior to further steps being taken. XX/XX/XXXX I entered into a contract with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX commenced with salesperson XXXX under good faith they were a reputable and honest dealership to conduct business with. Over the course of the last few months I discovered there were multiple discrepancies in my contract which resulted in me losing a {$1500.00} down payment and a {$1600.00} payment for an extended warranty with their partner company XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX which I was unable to use. Let us start with the warranty -- XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX miles an issue occurred with the motor of my vehicle resulting in me needing to use the warranty and was unable to do so though because they stated and I quote " the vehicle is registered with XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX extended warranty '' not them. XXXX rejected me saying my vehicle needed an updated which was solely only able to be covered by XXXXXXXX XXXX. I proceeded to reach out to XXXX XXXX XXXX Auto manager at that time, XXXX regarding the issue. He stated he'd reach out to XXXXXXXX XXXX directly and rectify the situation however I followed up with XXXXXXXX XXXX and they never received any communication from the dealership to resolve the warranty issue costing me to pay out of pocket. I made sure to keep the voice transcript from XXXXXXXX XXXX representative indeed stating the dealership never followed up. The warranty is now expired and the XXXX time it was of use I could not use it. I do expect this amount to be reimbursed. Moving beyond that the dealership has failed to uphold their end of the contract signed XX/XX/XXXX. They required a {$1500.00} down payment to purchase the vehicle however after reaching out to XXXX XXXX per the contract that was not required to finalize the purchase. Per page XX/XX/XXXX of my contract it states this vehicle was purchases on credit at the " Cash price '' but that is in fact inaccurate -- - putting down a cash payment on the financed instrument no longer makes the purchase subjected to being fully financed via credit which is a breach of the contract made at hand. Beyond that included in the contract it states there's a paper version of the retail installment contract, not just an electronic copy of it. After reaching out to the dealership asking them to view the original document commenced on the day of signing XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX responded saying they failed to keep such document and do not have for me to view. As a consumer I am expected to uphold my end of the contract which I have done amicably with no problems. As a creditor/furnisher you all are expected to uphold your end as well and neither parties are doing so. A simple resolution to this matter would be to provide me reimbursement for my down payment and the faulty warranty. I would love to resolve this problem prior to arbitration or any legal avenues pursued. Thank you. I look forward to a prompt response within XXXX days. This notice has also been sent certified mail to both parties.

I have taken a look at my credit report which has caused some confusion. I used my social security number/card defined under XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX l ) to extend credit with Credit Acceptance Corporation to obtain a vehicle. I am a natural person, a federally protected consumer, and the original creditor defined under XXXX XXXX XXXX ( g ). The vehicle which is subject to the transaction was used primarily for personal, family and household purposes. Credit Acceptance Corporation is engaging in extortion and racketeering activity defined under Title XXXX Chapter XXXX Credit Acceptance Corporation did not inform me on the cost of credit. I never received written adequate notice that sets for the pertinent facts for this consumer credit transaction which violates XXXX XXXX XXXX ( k ). Credit Acceptance Corporation is obligated to send written notice including the amount of the alleged debt and the original creditor, which violates XXXX XXXX XXXX. Congress makes it clear that consumer credit would be strengthened by the informed use of credit. The only decision I was given after the consummation of the transaction was to make payments without penalty which is a violation of XXXX XXXX XXXX.

In XXXX XXXX XXXX, I purchased a car ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX-year XXXX ). I bough the car to the dealer XXXX XXXX, company located in XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MI XXXX. They also processed the loan for me to purchase the vehicle with Credit Acceptance, company located in XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX, MI XXXX. Below I will explain step by step the process from the purchase of the vehicle until now. 1. XXXX XXXX sold me a vehicle above the commercial value. The value of the car in the market is {$4500.00} dollars and they sold it to me in {$9700.00} dollars plus {$5700.00} dollars of finance Charge for a total of {$15000.00} dollars. 2. XXXX XXXX transact the loan for that car with Credit Acceptance where the monthly fees of the vehicle were going to be 60 % of my monthly income. At that time I agreed to those payments only for 2 reasons. -They assured me that after making 3 payments or in 3 months I was going to be able to refinance the debt and my monthly payment would go down drastically. -And the other reason was because at that time I lived in a relative 's house and practically I did not have to many financial responsibilities. The problem began when at 3 months I tried to refinance the vehicle. The first option of course was Credit Acceptance where from the beginning they refused to help me. I insisted several times but they completely refused to change the terms of the loan. I try to refinance with almost all the financial companies in the market and all refused to refinance the car. The main reason is that my debt with Credit Acceptance was much more of the cars value, refinance the car would be completely impossible, of course it would also be impossible to continue with monthly payments of {$300.00} dollars when my monthly salary was {$600.00} dollars. This situation has brought me tears, health problems because this has overwhelmed me with XXXX. In conclusion this case led me to talk with the owner of a car dealer who gave me his advice. The first thing he said to me is that the Company XXXX XXXX and the Company Credit Acceptance had to do something strange or illegal to qualify me for that credit, since with my monthly income it was not possible to qualify someone for the purchase of that vehicle. This is the worst part of this situation because if they made something illegal to qualify me we are talking about something very serious. This situation has also affected my credit score. And another thing that I wanted to mention is the Interest Rate that the company Credit Acceptance charged to me and all the Finance Charge. I would like to make clear that at the time of the purchased of the vehicle I did not check anything because I was innocently focused on having a car and also because of ignorance of the procedures. Currently, my son and I moved to an apartment and of course it is impossible for me to pay that monthly payment. As a single mother I fight hard everyday to get my XXXX XXXX XXXX son out and this situation has affected us to much. I believe that what these two companies have done with me is totally unfair and illegal, therefore I demand justice and I request applied all the law strongly to these 2 companies and I additional for me an indemnity for damages.

The nature of the problem is that I feel that credit acceptance took advantage of me. In XX/XX/XXXX, I went to XXXX XXXX to purchase a XXXX XXXX XXXX. I was paying {$290.00} on it and within a month, the car stopped and they told me they could not fix it. So I had to fix it myself. I believe they sold me a car that was auctioned off somewhere because it had a crack in the window and it started acting up as soon as I got it. I believe they deceived to think that they checked the car completely before they sold it to me and I also placed GAP insurance on it. After a few months from automatic withdrawal, they started adding on fees when I was late. Every time I was caught up, they added on more fees and they repossessed my vehicle twice. The first time, it was after hours around midnight which is against the law. It was suppose to be around business hours. I thought my car was stolen, so I filed a police report. After I had to pay {$500.00} plus the car note and extra fees, I was then able to get the car back but my nightmare wasn't over. They harassed me every single day from XXXX to XXXX and when I answered, the representatives were very rude and stressed me out even more. The second time they took, I voluntary gave it to them because the stress I had endured with giving them everything I had made me give up. I have a witness they will testify to all of this. Their practices are illegal and they do not inform their customers on procedures and terms of the contract once it has ended.They sold my vehicle for {$2500.00} and sued me for {$12000.00}. They started a garnishment in XX/XX/XXXX without any warning or notification to me to respond to the garnishment. It was placed on me by default, which I'm pretty sure they knew they would win. Because I was unaware of the garnishment about to take place, I was unable to answer and they won on default. My wages started getting garnished in XXXX and still getting garnished. I've been faced with getting evicted from my home, delinquent bills, no vehicle because of what they placed on my credit report. They have taken over {$6000.00} of garnishment from my paycheck. Based on the principal balance, I have paid off the balance that was explained that I had to pay. They told me XX/XX/XXXX, that I will not be able to have it removed from my credit report until attorney fees and interest is paid and that it wouldn't be done until after 60 days instead of 30 days based on the FCRA. This was not discussed to me when I was signing a contract with them when I purchased the car. They are getting over on me and have made my life a nightmare. I'm a single mom with XXXX kids, no car, and I desperately need justice for what they out me through. I'm seeking a resolution for distress and financial turmoil. According to my credit report, my balance is the only thing that is showing on there that had to be paid before it will be removed. Now, they are talking about attorney fees and interest and they are doing this because they won a judgement that was unfairly granted to them without my response to anything. I believe it is against the fair credit reporting act and against proper procedure of reporting the right amount for the debt to be removed from the credit report.

I financed a vehicle through Credit Acceptance. I week after purchasing, major mechanical damage was discovered, resulting in Cred. Accptnc. to do what they call " pass '' on the vehicle. Pass meaning they were not going to attempt to repossess it due to the extent of the mechanical failures that were present at the time of purchase. The major mechanical issues did not appear until about a week after I had driven the vehicle home. The original seller of the vehicle had reset the fault codes to make the car appear in working condition. After the pass Cred. Accptnc. begin offering a settlement to settle out the account which were twice as much as the vehicles worth. In XX/XX/2017 the vehicle was impacted by Hurricane Harvey. I informed Cred. Accptnc. who then begin to report this on my credit file. The account was sent charged off and reported as such on my credit file. Every month for the past 8-9 months there are inconsistencies with their reporting to credit agencies. The total balance due and past due amounts seem to fluctuate, increasing each month. I contracted XXXX XXXX who informed me that legally once an account is charged off, a creditor is only allowed to charges a specific amount of interest. Cred. Accptnc. has been reporting inaccuracies on an almost monthly basis. I have disputed this account every month for the past 6 months. Each dispute has ended with Cred. Accptnc. having to correct the past/balance due only to report it incorrectly again the following month by adding to my balance/past due amount. I contacted them and asked them to cease from further inaccurate reporting, per the request of XXXX XXXX XXXX, because it is doing major damage to my credit file. Each time it is reported inaccurately it is taking away 68-70 points from my credit score. I spoke with the 3 credit bureaus who advised me to file a complaint with the XXXX and if necessary, take legal action. My credit fluctuates 68-70 points every other month making it almost impossible to stabilize my credit. The credit reporting inaccuracies and inconsistencies have been occurring for quite some time now. The account was reported as charged off several times, the latest being inXX/XX/2017. The law states that creditors can not increase the balances and past due amounts on charged off accounts but are allowed to charge interest but only up to a certain percentage. At the time of the account being reported as charged off in XX/XX/2017 the balance was XXXX. Creditors are required to maintain the charged off amount when reporting plus a limited amount of interest, if any. Once charged off late payment are not to continue to increase due to the charged off status. Credit Acceptance made claims that my balance and past due amount increased on my credit report as more payment is due/became past due, but the amount of the increase that has been/is being reported is inconsistent with the monthly payment amount of XXXX. My balances over the last few months have fluctuated from XXXX, to XXXX, back to XXXX, to XXXX, sometimes changing without a 30 billing period in between. The amounts reported continue to fluctuate up and down and have been more and sometimes less than the amount of the monthly payment.

on XX/XX/2019 I went online Credit Acceptance Corp to obtain my payoff amount and received an online quote of {$15000.00}. On the website it shows different ways that I can use cash to pay. I elected to use XXXX, I went to the nearest XXXX station was tried to send the whole balance of {$15000.00} and customer service rep told me that I couldnt send that much to them they had a cap amount. I sent {$5000.00} due to that being the cap amount. That evening at XXXX I contacted Credit Acceptance and explained to the customer rep that I was trying to pay it all off and that I could only send {$5000.00} she told me to wait an hour and try again. I went back to XXXX and was informed that I had reach the limit for the day and that I had to wait not 1 hour that credit acceptance told me but 24 hours. OnXX/XX/2019 I went online again and got another payoff quote showing the {$10000.00}. Since it hadnt been 24 hours that I used XXXX Credit Acceptance Corp had XXXX XXXX as an option and I elected to use them. I sent another {$5000.00} to them at XXXX. On XX/XX/2019 I went back on line and did another online payoff quote showing {$5600.00} I again elected to use XXXX XXXX and sent another {$5000.00} to them.After this payment I was showing a payoff balance of {$680.00}. On XX/XX/2019 I went online to get another payoff quote and it was showing {$980.00} a total of {$290.00} difference. I called Credit Acceptance and noone could explain how I accured {$290.00} in less than 24 hours. Both the customer rep and the manager kept saying that the computer calulates the interest. I asked what day their interest due dates fall on beginning or end of month and the manager told me daily. But couldnt explain how from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX I accured {$290.00} in interested. I asked to speak to another manager when she stated that it could take 3 business days for a manager to call me back. I tried to explain to the manager that I was trying to pay it off since XX/XX/XXXX and they were aware of this but failed to educate me that they only allow a borrow to send {$5000.00} at a time using the different payee sources they have listed on their website. I requested that they adjust my balance to the {$680.00} because that is what was showing on XX/XX/2019 and that they knew on XX/XX/2019 that I was trying to pay the complete balance off. I requested that they show me how the {$290.00} interest was calulated on my account in less than 24 hours and the manager said she cant show me that.

On XXXX XXXX XXXX, 2015 early morning about XXXX or XXXX My vehicle was repossed by my loan company CREDIT ACCEPTANCE. I called on that same day and was advised by XXXX of their representatives that my car was take by XXXX XXXX. I did advise the representative that I would recover my car on Friday XXXX XXXX, 2015. She gave me the balance and said she would note the system as such. The representative never told me that I had to contact XXXX XXXX to get my belongings. Nor did your company advise that there would be a fee to recover my belongings. Yet another inconvience and more money out of my pocket. Why would the company have the car cleaned out that was going to be redeemed the next week. I feel that you should have at least a week to redeem your car back before further actions are taken. Credit Acceptance actions and protocals are all wrong. I feel that they dont want consumers to redeem their vehicles if so they would not have to go thru such drastic measures. On Friday XXXX XXXX XXXX week later I called Credit Acceptance office to make payment. I have never felt so mislead in all my life. None of their representatives were helpful nor friendly. I was first told to pay the money and my car would be released the same day. That was a lie. I then paid the money thinking that XXXX XXXX still had my car. When I called them they advised that they only removed my belongings from the car and my car was taken somewhere else. I understand that Credit Acceptance does not want comsumer trying to redeem their vehchiles from their auction yards however this situation could have been better taken care. It is very poor communicaiton on theirr behalf to me as the consumer. Creidt Acceptance says to be best company to work for but you are treating your consumers second hand. I felt that my entire Friday was a run around. When I finally got in contact with XXXX to redeem my car she told me I needed to schedule an appoitment which they were all booked on Friday yet another inconvience. They are not open the weekends. So I had to scheduele my appointment for Monday XXXX XXXX, 2015. Not to mentionthat this place was XXXX mins from where I live. Yet another inconvience. When I arrive to get my car I went to do an inspection on it and there was several things wrong with it my front bottom bumper is damaged assuming from the pull to the tow truck the front corner panel driver side was damaged as well. When I called Credit Acceptance to make an complaint about my car I was told that I would have to contact SRS Recovery. And that they were not responsible then whom is. Yet anohter inconvience. When I called the EXTREAMLY RUDE COMPANY SRS RECOVERY they advised me that the contract with CREDIT ACCEPTANCE states that they are not responsible for any damages done to the car while being repossed. How is that fair to me as the consumer? When I CREDIT ACCEPTANCE back the representative yet again said I had to called XXXX XXXX. Now CREDIT ACCEPTANCE nor XXXX XXXX wants to take responsibility for the damages done to my car. All CREDIT ACCEPTANCE wants is payments on the car not concerned about the consumer at all. I am very upset with this entire encounter of me redeeming my car.

On XX/XX/XXXX I purchased a used XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX Arkansas. I made sure to maintain the car regularly, get maintenance that the car needed, be fully insured and have the extended warranty coverage just to be extra safe.The one time the car tripped an engine code, I took it to XXXX XXXX and they turned it off and gave the car back to me only for it to come back on XXXX minutes later. They could not figure out what was wrong with it and told me to take the car to someone else. I also was never late to monthly payments to the company. All this still ended up backfiring on me about 4 months, 3 days later actually. The engine completely blew up on me while driving down the highway going to get gasoline on XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX near exit XXXX. At this time, I did not know that the engine blew and I thought it was a battery or alternator issue so I towed the car and got those parts replaced. Once I realized the engine was toast I contacted my dealer, auto insurance and extended warranty companies. The dealer instructed me to get the car towed to XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX specifically so I did.I also payed for the next monthly payment while the vehicle was unable to drive in the repair facility. The warranty company told me that it wasn't their problem to deal with and to contact my auto insurance ; not honoring their policy. Once I contacted the auto insurance company ESURANCE, they did the exact same thing and told me to contact my extended warranty company. By this point, a back and forth, bounce wall-to-wall effect was happening for over 2 MONTHS between me, the extended warranty company and auto insurance. After some time, I was finally able to get the auto insurance company to send out an inspector to find the cause of failure. The same inspector was sent out over 5 DIFFERENT TIMES by BOTH the INSURANCE AND WARRANTY companies to inspect the vehicle. The inspector made poor judgements throughout their inspection being that the dealership was not coming to an agreement on what caused the vehicle to fail with the inspector. One side was saying water damage ( no water was found in the engine ) and the other side was saying otherwise. At this point I have lost all of my money and tax return income paying for rentals to traverse to work ( the vehicle 's fuel was supposed to be reimbursed by auto insurance company but never was ). I then lost my job because I ran out of money for rental vehicles and became very physically and mentally ill and unable to function ( walking home from the XXXX XXXX XXXX. I recovered and developed a XXXX XXXX to then later be admitted to a mental hospital facility and put on s*icide watch during and after being XXXX on the verge of ending it all. The vehicle has been at XXXX XXXX ever since this matter occurred and has ruined my credit and future to have a successful life because CREDIT ACCEPTANCE and THEIR WARRANTY COMPANY and ESURANCE are a bunch of disingenuous evil people that are not out to help you and get over on you for your money. I have been denied approval for every type of loan or card application over 15 TIMES because of this and I am quite literally unable to proceed in life.

Me and My husband XXXX XXXX are victims of predatory lending by XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX and Credit Acceptance Corporation. XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX and Credit Acceptance Corporation capitalized on our lack of knowledge within the auto industry as it has done other minorities by offering higher interest loans and hidden fees. XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, NJ XXXX and Credit Acceptance Corporation need to be investigated for their faulty practices with minorities and low income consumers. XXXX XXXX XXXX markets themselves as being quote " friendly and knowledgeable staff that will aid in finding the perfect price that fits the consumers budget '' I have provided an image from their website to prove their deceptive ways. XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX knew that me and my husband had just experienced XXXX 2 weeks XX/XX/XXXX prior to us receiving the car. The rep XXXX XXXX said that we can drive the car but to come back in 2 weeks on XX/XX/XXXX to sign the papers. The rep lied on the contract and said I was hired as self employed and that I made {$4100.00} to imply that it was a monthly gross income which is not true I made {$4000.00} that month and had been a real estate agent since the prior year XXXX. The rep placed me as the cosigner without explaining what I was signing, I thought I was signing up to also be an owner of the vehicle mind you it was late in the day and we were the only one 's there signing paperwork so there was a feeling of being rushed. The rep also put my husbands pay at {$2500.00} a month which was a lie. At the time my husband was working per diem for the XXXX XXXX which meant as needed he only went in when they needed him no set hours. This lead anyone who has the contract to believe that I made more than double the amount as my husband as the co-signer which I did not know that I was signing the paperwork to be a co-signer. We trusted XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX as being friendly which means trusted and knowledgeable which means they knew more but cared enough to take our situation into consideration. We did not want to pay more than {$10000.00} the van was advertised as {$9000.00} it was never explained to us that since we had low credits and a XXXX that the interest rate would be so high that we would be paying back around {$20000.00}. Credit Acceptance Corporation markets themselves off of being knowledgeable with educating consumers and helping build credit. Both companies are capitalizing off of low income communities which are mainly minorities that dont have the proper knowledge and rely on the sales professionals to handle their situations with care and ease. We were completely taken advantage of and this violates our rights as consumers. Credit Acceptance should have picked up these gaps in the contract but instead they were just as deceptive with hidden fees including tacking on fees and percentages that were supposed to be forgiven during Covid-19. After careful research I now know that we should have never been presented with a contract that we could not afford which all the professionals should have been aware of this is completely deceptive and should be brought to attention for corrective actions.

I am writing this letter because I have recently been educated on my rights as a consumer and after reviewing the contract that was presented to me at XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, of XXXX, I am clear that those rights have been violated. Please see the list of violations that occurred during my consumer credit transaction to purchase the XXXX XXXX XXXX noted below. It is a fact that I provided a cash down payment in the amount of {$2300.00}, however per 15 USC 1605a no cash down payment can be collected when there is a finance charge. Pursuant to 15 USC 1662b it is illegal to require a down payment in conjunction with an extension of consumer credit. It is a fact that I was told that the cash down payment would reduce the total amount of the purchase price, however on page 1 of the contract it clearly shows that the down payment was not subtracted but added to the purchase price of the vehicle. This is a billing error pursuant to 15 USC 1666. It is a fact that I understand pursuant to 15 USC 1605, that the finance charge is the sum of all charges. On the 1st page of the contract the finance charge is misrepresented to be only {$10000.00} when in fact the sum of all charges would be {$27000.00}. This is a violation of 15 USC 1692e ( 2 ) ( A ). It is a fact that pursuant to 15 USC 1605, a finance charge, which is the sum of all charges, should include all insurance premiums. However, no charges dealing with insurance was included in the finance charge per the contract. The members of your staff did not even disclose that insurance was to be included with the finance charge, they just called XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX on my behalf and made me contract with them separately. This is a violation of what is written in this law. 1 It is a fact that once there is a dispute of any billing error, a creditor can not report any information to a 3rd party until the dispute has been resolved, pursuant to 15 USC 1666a. It is a fact that it was never disclosed that all service fees were to be included with the finance charge as noted per 15 USC 1605. It is my understanding that any and all services that may be needed for the life of this vehicle will be covered by your company and that I would only be responsible for the cost of parts. It is a fact that pursuant to 15 USC 1692c, I am providing notice that I refuse to pay any debt and as the original creditor ( since I created the debt ) I intend to invoke a specified remedy. It is a fact that disclosure of my rights to rescind the consumer credit transaction or the documents required for me to rescind the transaction was never provided to me as required pursuant to 15 USC 1635. Under 15 USC 1635, I am exercising my right to rescind the consumer credit transaction, which would include any power of attorney. Since the vehicle has depreciated in value it is not equitable for me to return the vehicle. Within 20 days of receiving this notice, you will return the down payment and all payments made in relation to this contract as well as take all required action to reflect the termination of your security interest that was created by this consumer credit transaction.

On XX/XX/2021, I went to a dealership looking for a vehicle and found XXXX XXXX XXXX. I was told the paystubs I provided look fake and faulty and they don't look legit. They then had me go back to my employer to have them issue me a new stubs that meets their criteria. At that time I was already in the process they told me a {$1000.00} down they will see what I can get. i had a vehicle in mind that was really nice. After verifying that my paystubs were legit and real. They told me that there finance bank " XXXX XXXX '' kicked the deal for fictitious paystubs. The deal was returned to them and they offered me in house financing through their dealership. They responded to the XXXX stating Everything I just said above. So I questioned myself over and over and just been thinking heavy about this because I paid them the down payment which was almost everything I saved up for. They told me I couldn't get the car I wanted from the start and said they have a car in the back they can pull around for me to see. It was old looking and ran down but I'm not a car expert I just needed transportation for my family and they said the car is old but very reliable and will get me from point A to B. Sales Tactics were on point I was totally tricked. The same day they told me to bring the car in the next day if I can to get maintenance on it that I asked and checked on the vehicle such as break pads, rotors, oil change, oil filters, Tires and fluids. I brought it in to their mechanic shop on their property and dropped it off. While picking the vehicle up the maintenance man ask me was I here to pick up the XXXX XXXX I said yes, he specifically told ask me did I finance this vehicle and I said yes. He said they wasn't supposed to sell me that vehicle yet because he didn't get a chance to check it out since it came from an auction it set in the back of their dealership yard. They didn't do non of the things they said they would so the car starting malfunctioning and I wasn't able to drive the car I told them about it and reached out to them multiple times and they did not want to help and I started receiving calls, emails and text from a company called XXXX XXXX but I was informed by the dealership I was setup to have in house financing. The dealer responded to the XXXX stating they never reported to my credit report and that i need to contact credit acceptance, but I thought they kicked the deal. As stated on credit report and on XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I never made a payment due to the vehicle not able to function after financing the vehicle. If the motor is blown then they just admitted that they sold me something that they had knowledge about from the start and their response also shows that they knowingly gave me a vehicle that has a blown motor. I just want the payments and account off of my credit report. I would like them to notify XXXX XXXX to do so. This is so wrong and its been causing a lot of troubles and emotional distress I had to deal with transporting my self to work and handling kids going to school all that was effected because of them and I am still being punished from getting a vehicle due to their actions.

At the beginning of the pandemic, I had lost my job. I did fall behind in the payments, but was keeping in contact with the company. On a Friday I spoke with Credit Acceptance and let them know that I had sent a money order to them in the amount of {$1000.00}. to get almost all the way caught up especially with them threatening to repossess my car. I was told that my name would be removed off of the repossess list that was for the upcoming Tuesday, due to Monday being a holiday. The morning of that following Tuesday, I had court at the courthouse in XXXX, MO. The sheriff comes into the courtroom to get me, saying that my car had just been repossessed and in a very illegal way. They have the tow truck company on video right after I walked into the courthouse back up to my car very quickly, hop out, connected up my car, and sped away. First issue is I had sent them payment, and was told I would not be repossessed, second ; local law enforcement was never notified of any repossessions being done until 3 hours after they repossessed it ; third, no contact was ever made with me to inform me of it being repossessed ; fourth, my vehicle was front wheel drive and the tow truck driver dragged my car front tires down for XXXX miles, the car was totaled because of it. In my vehicle was my medication that I need to keep from getting ill everyday, I can not miss a dose. I called Credit Acceptance who claimed they had knowledge of my car getting repossessed but gave me the number to the company they used for repossessions. The tow truck company then argued with me about getting my medication out of my car and continued to lie and make up excuses as to why I wouldn't be able to get my medication. Finally after 6 hours, my making a police report, and getting very ill with out my medication, I was able to meet the tow truck driver to get my belongings. My car was at the mans house in his back yard, that was in no way a business. I was told by XXXX County Police and XXXX County Sherriff that I needed to take pictures of any damages that were made to the vehicle. I took pictures of the front underneath being torn up, the front bumper being almost pulled under the vehicle, my tires that were almost worn through, that were brand new tires, and the guard underneath that was ripped off. Then I took pictures of where my car had been parked and you could see the drag marks from when he pulled away. The tow truck driver tried to claim he had pulled it out, but unhooked and re-hooked to the front, but the XXXX County Sherriff confirmed he did not. After that Credit Acceptance was unable to find my vehicle and thought that I had got it back and was demanding me to pay them. They said once they were able to speak with the tow company about where my car was located they would make contact with me to settle since my car was now totaled after they received a {$1000.00} payment from me. I have not heard from them at all since. I have disputed the report on my credit because of their fault my vehicle was totaled after I had made a payment and they were not able to ever find my car once the tow company took it in to possession.

XX/XX/XXXX I bought a car XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) from ( XXXX XXXX ) a dealership in Maryland , the car was financed by CREDIT ACCEPTANCE. I asked for the price of the car but was not told. The dealer only told me my monthly payment. He said the total Im financing was {$17000.00}. With a monthly payment of {$530.00} which was scheduled for a spilt pay of XXXX every two weeks. First I was told I will not pay until after a month, which my account was debited only one week after, this took my bank account to overdraft. This was the first fraudulent action From CREDIT ACCEPTANCE. I called to question this action, this was when I was told that my balance is {$29000.00} for a XXXX XXXX XXXX. I object and they said there was nothing I could do about it. That I already signed up for it. I told the associate that I never signed a single paper. Everything was done on their computer, it was late at night, I couldnt read the whole long text. I just trusted the auto giant associate who was explaining to me. Since XX/XX/XXXX Ive been making this rigorous payment and Im earlier this year I was out of job for one month which made me had a past due and I got into my car one morning and my car has been shot down. This was the first time I found out that CREDIT ACDEPTANCE had a tracker on my car without my consent. I called them and it was remotely turned on after I made a payment that morning. I missed my job and was totally messed up. This year alone my car has been turned down 4 times. My grieve right now is that I was told as at purchase that I will be eligible for refinancing as at purchase. I called them XX/XX/XXXX that I want to refinance and they said I cant that they dont do refinancing. This was absolutely different from what I was told upon signing. So Ive been paying XXXX XXXX monthly on this car without the opportunity of refinancing. They stock me up with this killing rate and with all this rigor, Ive been assulted and embarrassed by credit acceptance associate on several occasions. Theyve taken so much aggressive action on my turning down my car without notice or warning. Today XXXX of XXXX, Ive been seeing call from credit acceptance the whole day but couldnt pick up because I was at work. At the 5th time of calling me consecutively I was forced to pick up. And this lady was very rude, disrespectful and uncultured to me. Ask me to be quiet 4times in the conversation. I tried to pour out my concern to her but she never listen. She called me saying I have past due and my car will be turned down. I explained to her that I just made a payment as scheduled for me to pay on the XXXX XXXX which was a day before this day. She said a new bill has rolled over and I said Im aware but Im telling you I just made a payment yesterday. How do you call me to threaten me to turn down my car if I dont pay today when I just paid {$300.00} yesterday. All effort to convince her was abortive because she will not listen. I like to emphasis that this will not be the first time Ive been harrassed by credit acceptance associate. And I demand a review of my payment or cancelation without charge or report on my credit

This complaint is against XXXX XXXX Credit Acceptance CorpXXXX Until viewing my credit file, I had never heard of this company. I have been disputing an inquiry this company placed on my credit file, without my permission. My initial dispute started in XXXX of XXXX. All three credit bureaus come back with first a stall tactic and then a fake validation letter. According to the credit bureaus, they have confirmed with this company that the inquiry belongs to me and that you are not removing it. I Demand that you do IMMEDIATELY! I have lost all my patience and this is the final attempt before I file legal action against this company. I have been the victim of ID theft. I was in a motorcycle accident early last year and someone made an attempt to apply for unemployment in my name. I have short term XXXX from my job so knew this wasnt me. A few months later they made several attempts to obtain credit cards and car loans in my name. No one in their right mind would put many credit inquiries in a short amount of time. I have not applied for any loans or credit cards with this company and do not wish to. There are two inquiries that need removing immediately. Since Credit Acceptance Corp is reporting that the inquiry is valid then I demand to see the proof. Also, prove that it is actually me that made the inquiry 1.I demand the original credit application signed by me, showing my wet ink signature? You dont because it doesnt exist. 2.Did you even make an attempt to investigate this matter to prove it was actually me? Again, no you did not as I was never contacted by this company in regards to this so-called fake investigation. 3. I demand a full ledger of every step of your investigative process, for each dispute submitted by me. To continually ignore my request for validation shows malicious and willful noncompliance, which is against Federal Law. You have violated many federal laws in The Privacy Act of 1974. One agency is not allowed to share information with another agency without a consumers consent. 15 USC 1681 section 604 A - governs my right to privacy. Information can not be furnished on any report without my written consent. I never gave you my consent. I have reported this fraud to the proper authorities. I am demanding you remove all inquiries made by this company to all three credit bureaus immediately. Federal law states that fraudulent items are to be removed within 4 days. You have run out of time. If these inquiries are not removed and proof of this action has not been sent to me I WILL TAKE LEGAL ACTION AGAINST YOU. Violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act is {$1000.00} per violation. Since you have decided to ignore or perform proper due diligence when I demanded an investigation, you are responsible. You are the furnisher of this information, so the burden of proof and all liability is on you. At this time, I am demanding {$2000.00}, for the violations and the immediate removal of all inquiries from this company. The following inquires were placed fraudulently on my report on 1. XX/XX/XXXX 2. XX/XX/XXXX Your expeditious handling of this matter is expected.

Motor Vehicle Purchase Date : XX/XX/XXXX Total DownPayment : {$5700.00} Make & Model : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Odometer Reading at purchase : XXXX As a new credit user an authorized working immigrants, we went inquiring about a car to purchase for a reliable transportation to/from work. XXXX advised us that he is not able to disclose the price for the vehicle until after we submitted and signed a few documents which we did. The contract was never explained. They had us sign the document under the pretence that Credit Acceptance was not able to disclose the total cost until after we submitted such. We were advised that the car was ok and that we only needed to put gas in the car and air in the tire as the tire as the pressure was low. After we drove off the lot and on the journey we realized we were feeling this strange vibration and hearing this noise from the car whenever we accelerated so i immediately called XXXX and he advised me not to worry that it was just the tire causing the vibration. We were almost at work ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX so we unable to turn back. Later that night when i was leaving work i realized that only one of my headlights had light but it was extremely faint so we had to be piloted home by another vehicle. I decided the following day to drive it again to work and have our mechanic take a look at it. I took off the bumper an immediately advised that he was not going to touch it and he thinks it 's best to have the manufacturers look at it so i parked the car at work and immediately booked an appointment with XXXX XXXX for XX/XX/XXXX. I again called XXXX 's to let him know that i will be dropping the car off at his office to look at the issue, This was done on XX/XX/XXXX and i also notified him about my upcoming XXXX appointment. XXXX had the car from XX/XX/XXXX until XX/XX/XXXX when he brought it to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to fix. I ended up spending a total of {$3800.00} of MY MONEY to fix. When i finally got the car back XX/XX/XXXX it was even worst and i have documents to prove such. I immediately book another appointment with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for XX/XX/XXXX and the to date the car is still there with a $ XXXX bill. Turns out the car was in an accident and the warranty they provided does not cover all the damages on the vehicle. In Florida, the maximum permissible interest rate is 18 % per annum. If a lender charges interest at a higher rate than 18 % computed on an annual basis, the lender is subject to civil penalties that include forfeiture of the interest, both already paid and remaining to be paid. I was charged a total of 23 % and {$44000.00} loan total.I have been out of work for almost 2 months as i was fired due to missing work in an attempt to fix the issue with XXXX. Who by the way was rude and keep hanging up on us or refusing to return or calls on several occasions. XXXX XXXX monthly payments are still hitting my account from Credit Acceptance. I even tried calling them to provide an update on my current status and they advised me that they are not able to hold payments due to me being unemployed. Please help me!

Dear Fraud Department I am writing to formally bring to your attention a serious matter regarding my credit report, which has caused substantial mental stress and financial harm due to inaccurate and false information reported on my credit file. I have made diligent efforts to address this issue with both the original creditors and your agency but have received no resolution. This letter serves as a Notice of Violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and a formal demand for the immediate removal of the inaccurate and false accounts from my credit file. Please be advised that I have retained legal counsel, and if these accounts are not removed within three ( 3 ) business days from the date of this letter, we will proceed with filing a claim in small claims court to seek remedies for these violations. The following accounts are in question XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Credit Acceptance Corporation XXXX XXXX I would like to emphasize that the reporting of these accounts on my credit report is both inaccurate and harmful, as they have negatively impacted my ability to secure credit, housing, and other financial opportunities. Under the FCRA, consumers have the right to accurate credit reporting, and creditors and credit bureaus have an obligation to ensure the integrity of the information they report. I have previously sent certified mail letters to the original creditors of these accounts, requesting debt validation and providing them with a reasonable opportunity to respond, as required by the law. However, I have not received any response from the original creditors within the legally mandated time frame. I have attached each letter that has been sent out with no response. The FCRA clearly stipulates that credit bureaus must investigate and remove inaccurate information within a reasonable time frame. My request for removal of these accounts is well within the bounds of the law and is based on the following FCRA provisions : Section 1681s-2 ( b ) - Responsibilities of furnishers of information to consumer reporting agencies. Section 1681i - Procedure in case of disputed accuracy. Section 1681e - Compliance procedures. Section 1681o - Civil liability for willful noncompliance. I urge you to take immediate action to investigate these accounts, confirm their inaccuracy, and remove them from my credit file. Failure to do so will compel me to proceed with a claim in small claims court to seek remedies for the violations of my rights under the FCRA, including damages for the mental stress and financial harm I have endured. I have retained an attorney, who will represent me in this matter. Please consider this letter as my final attempt to resolve this matter amicably before pursuing legal action. I request that you send written confirmation of the removal of the aforementioned accounts from my credit report within three ( 3 ) business days from the date of this letter. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I trust that you will take the necessary actions to rectify these violations and prevent the need for further legal action.

I purchased a used vehicle in XXXX from an auto dealership in XXXX, NJ. At the time, I was in need of a reliable vehicle and I was eager to make a deal for a XXXX XXXX XXXX. My XXXX score wasn't the greatest so my financing options were limited. I obtained an auto from Credit Acceptance Corporation. I've never heard of the company at the time I purchased my XXXX and I was hesitant to sign the paperwork as I was feeling rushed but Credit Acceptance assured my that if I make only a few on-time payments they would have refinance options available to me because my rate is in the high 20 percent range. I made on-time payments in the beginning of my loan term but then COVID hit and that's when my financial situation became impacted. I reached out to Credit Acceptance several times for help and they were rude, ignorant, judgmental, and not willing to help me at all and basically said, " oh well, we'll just repossess your vehicle if you can't pay now. '' I also felt intimidated every time I had to call them because they would harass me 100 's of times a week via cell phone. Whenever I called this company I felt I was being discriminated based upon the sound of my voice and the letters of my name. Basically, because I'm a white male I feel I was being treated unfairly and denied COVID protection and payment options to resolve my past due balance. Plus, this vehicle has been in the repair shop for over 6 months because there has been significant mechanical issues which estimate to be over $ 5k. Today, I spoke with a supervisor at Credit Acceptance and he said either I pay or they are coming to take my XXXX. I can not afford {$500.00} a month for a XXXX loan balance. The rate is astronomical and I shouldn't have been approved because an interest rate so high only sets people up for failure if unforeseen circumstances arise ; this company should want to help people who try to do the right thing but instead they rather jeopardize a person 's livelihood based on their personal profile. I feel like I was taken advantage by Credit Acceptance, especially considering I was forced to buy their warranty in order to obtain the auto loan. The warranty didn't cover a thing. The interest rate is unfair and they give their borrows no chance to succeed and offer no help when financial hardships happen. I can not refinance my loan due to the late payments on my Credit Acceptance account and my XXXX score. I can not even afford to get my XXXX from the repair shop because I don't have enough in the bank due to COVID wiping out my savings and taking away family members income which contribute to the household I live in. I may be forced to file bankruptcy due to this measly XXXX XXXX auto loan that has destroyed my credit. Credit Acceptance should be held accountable for predatory lending as they persuade uncertain borrowers into a finance nightmare all the while laughing in their face when they are behind on their loans because they know no help is available and the company earns more revenue and write offs by destroying a borrower rather than helping a borrower.

Finance Company : Credit Acceptance Complaint : Alleged payment plan agreement date via company and repossession within a 30 day payment applied. Due to having a XXXX I was unable to handle normal business affairs of which my spouse assumed the responsibility of doing so. As a XXXX in XXXX XXXX I take my financial obligations most seriously but due to this unfortunate life event I became XXXX on my XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX. Upon stay at the hospital my truck was repossed on XX/XX/18 due to a due balance of {$340.00}. The company was contacted immediately on XX/XX/18 to obtain information as to why the truck had been repossessed of which they explain the {$340.00} past due. The truck has never been repossessed before. On XX/XX/18 my spouse money gramed {$800.00} to Credit Acceptance of which we are still trying to understand why {$800.00} for a past due balance of {$340.00}. My husband paid this amount and was told there was still a remaining balance that could be included in his monthly payment 's raising the payment from {$550.00} to {$600.00} for a total of 12 months which is still in error being a representative stated after that payment the balance due was {$150.00}. On XX/XX/18, Less than 30 days from the most recent possession the same company, XXXX XXXX visited our home to repo the truck again at XXXX XXXX of which we were clueless as to why and the repo driver knocked on our door stating he was confusing being he had picked the truck up prior less than 30 days and was very courteous. My spouse had planned to pay the newest payment on XX/XX/18 of which normal payments are not due until the XXXX of each month. On XX/XX/18 the company was contacted and the following staff were spoken too : XXXX ( rep ) XXXX ( supervisor ), XXXX ( supervisor ), XXXX ( supervisor ) and finally transferred to a manager XXXX whom we left a detailed message. All who indicated that repossession hadn't been reported and we should call the authorities to report the incident. This company alleges that my spouse agreed to make payments on XX/XX/2018 of which he disputes and has record of the actual recording. Why would a consumer pay {$800.00} plus on XX/XX/18 and then agree to pay XX/XX/18 on a holiday and less than 30 days from the last payment. I am disputing this alleged date agreement of XX/XX/18 and feel that the next payments should have fallen on the XXXX as normal. We were told a payment was expected on the XXXX as well as the XXXX which is a total discrepancy. The company is now stating that we owe {$800.00} dollars again to take possession of the truck which again has been less than 30 days. The desire and plan upon my retirement last month was to pay this vehicle off in XXXX but the repor of this company as a valued customer is diminished. We feel this was an error on behalf of Credit Acceptance and should be rectified. The only thing we should owe is the note to be paid with no additional feels added. We are furthermore inclined to believe that this company is over charging customers and possibly embezzling additional monies.

Buying the car XX/XX/XXXX they sale this Car damaged because one hour later the car is no longer good in XX/XX/XXXX I return the car to the dealer ( No longer interested in the car ) the dealer XXXX XXXX XXXX On the afternoon of XX/XX/XXXX I went to XXXX XXXX which is located at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX VA XXXX so i get the car is XXXX XXXX XXXX I was running some errands with my children of XXXX, XXXX, XXXX years and XXXX XXXX. Stopped at a traffic light the truck began to shake unstoppably, the engine light came on. I got nervous and very afraid for my children and myself. I called XXXX and told him what was going on with the truck. That same day, XX/XX/XXXX in the afternoon my husband took the truck to the dealer XXXX XXXX XXXX because I was too scared to drive the truck. His mechanic looked at it, they turned off the check engine light, my husband came back home but on the way the check engine light came back on and the truck was shaking when stopped too. The same situation I had in the morning. I called XXXX again the next day, explained what had happened and he told me to bring the truck and that same day left the truck there. The truck kept giving the same problem and he gave me the address of his mechanic which is located at XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, XXXX, VA XXXX. I didn't hear anything about the car until XX/XX/XXXX when I decided to call the mechanic.. The mechanic said that he had already talked to the warranty and that he was working to resolve the problem with the car. He had the diagnosis, the oil pump and the timing band was the vehicle problem. The mechanic told me that the warranty does not promise to repair the problem of the car 100 % and that the other part that the warranty does not cover will be my responsibility, he also told me that we had to wait 2 weeks after the truck was sold from the dealership and I talk to the dealer manager ( XXXX XXXX and he agree with him. But, it does not sound right to me. Today, XX/XX/XXXX, I spoke with the guarantee, they said they received the report that the truck has been in the mechanic since XX/XX/XXXX. And I said to the mechanic Since XX/XX/XXXX, the truck has not been able to drive for a full day due to the problem that it shakes and the engine light is on. The truck XXXX sold me that XX/XX/XXXX is not safe to drive. My purpose of taking a car from a dealer is because I didn't want to go through a problem like this. I wanted the security that a dealer gives when selling a car in good condition. I do not want to be in this situation ever again, I prefer to return the truck and have all of the downpayment I gave in the beginning, the {$3500.00} because is not fair to me, to loose all the money for a car I was not able to drive not even for a full drive and that can not be secured at it wont give a problem in the future. I want this car to get remove from my credit report, with the bank Credit acceptance corporate that Ive been in contact for multiple times and I didnt good resolve. They want me to pay the car even though they know the problem with the car XXXX.

XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX c/o XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Pennsylvania XXXX XXXX ] XXXX : Notice of Non-Compliance, Violations, and Intent to Arbitrate - CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I am writing to bring to your attention significant concerns regarding CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION ( hereinafter referred to as " CREDIT ACCEPTANCE '' ) and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. ( hereinafter referred to as " XXXX '' ) failing to comply with Public Policy HJR-192, multiple violations of the Federal Truth in Lending Act, infringements on my consumer rights, and potential violations of UCC 2-201 . As the owner and operator of a consumer law practice based in XXXX, Pennsylvania, I have a vested interest in upholding consumer protections and ensuring that financial institutions adhere to federal regulations. The actions of CREDIT ACCEPTANCE and XXXX have raised serious concerns, and I believe it is crucial to address these issues promptly and effectively. Public Policy HJR-192 : Public Policy HJR-192, passed in 1933, is designed to provide a remedy for individuals facing financial obligations and ensure that they are discharged in accordance with lawful money, as stipulated in HJR-192. CREDIT ACCEPTANCE and XXXX 's non-compliance with this policy raises questions about their adherence to federal regulations and their treatment of consumers like myself. Federal Truth in Lending Act Violations : I have identified multiple violations of the Federal Truth in Lending Act by CREDIT ACCEPTANCE and XXXX. These violations pertain to their disclosure practices, interest rate calculations, and other provisions designed to protect consumers. The extent of these violations is a matter of significant concern and requires immediate attention. UCC 2-201 : It has come to my attention that CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION may also meet the criteria outlined in UCC 2-201 . This section of the Uniform Commercial Code ( UCC ) deals with the enforceability of contracts for the sale of goods. If CREDIT ACCEPTANCE and XXXX 's actions are relevant to UCC 2-201, this must be addressed as part of the broader issue.

Subject : Discrepancies in Credit Report and Transaction History - Request for Rescission, Compensation, and Credit Report Update I am writing to bring to your attention significant discrepancies that have been identified in my recently obtained credit report and transaction history through Credit Acceptance. Upon careful review, it has become evident that both my name and address are incorrect in the report, rendering the entire agreement null and void due to the inaccurate representation of my personal information. Additionally, I believe Credit Acceptance has engaged in fraudulent practices as defined under 15 U.S.C. 1662 ( b ). During the loan application process, I was explicitly informed by Credit Acceptance that a down payment was mandatory. Consequently, I made the required down payment in good faith. However, it has come to my attention that the down payment made by me was not applied to my loan amount as initially stated. This discrepancy has caused significant harm to my creditworthiness over a period of seven years, which is a substantial violation of my rights as a consumer. In light of these findings, I hereby exercise my right to rescind the transaction under 15 U.S.C. 1635. I request that the transaction be immediately rescinded, and I be provided with a full refund of the down payment amount. Furthermore, I would like to draw your attention to 15 U.S.C. 1681n ( a ) ( 1 ), which outlines the legal provision for compensation due to inaccuracies in credit reporting. According to 15 U.S.C. 1681n ( a ) ( 1 ), I am entitled to compensation for each inaccuracy in my credit report. I request compensation of {$1000.00} per inaccuracy, as outlined by the aforementioned statute. Given the multiple inaccuracies in my credit report and the resulting harm caused to my creditworthiness, I expect an appropriate compensation amount to be awarded to me. Furthermore, I kindly request that all accounts pertaining to Credit Acceptance be removed from my credit report. These accounts are based on erroneous information and have contributed to the inaccurate representation of my creditworthiness. Therefore, their removal is necessary to rectify the harm caused by these discrepancies. I also request an updated credit report reflecting these changes to be provided to me. I expect Credit Acceptance to promptly investigate these matters, take the necessary actions to rectify the inaccuracies in my credit report and transaction history, and provide me with a written confirmation of the rescission of the transaction, along with a detailed breakdown of the refund amount. Please be aware that failure to address these concerns within a reasonable timeframe may leave me with no choice but to pursue legal remedies available to me under applicable consumer protection laws. I look forward to your immediate attention to this matter and a satisfactory resolution. Please respond to this letter within 30 days from the date of receipt. Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

On XX/XX/XXXX I went to XXXX XXXX XXXX who is an affiliate of Credit Acceptance Corporation to inquire about a car loan. I was told that if tried for a loan there would be no impact on my credit as I have low credit and been a victim of identity theft. It was a lie as my credit went down XXXX points and got XXXX different inquiries on my credit for which was not advised that this will happen. Also the dealership kept adjusting the loan amount, the deposit amount and they even added a warranty without my consent as they claimed that it would get approved for a higher loan. I was pressured into the signing for the loan even though I was asking for questions about the loan which the dealership gave mixed messages, I also didn't feel comfortable electronically signing the loan as I wanted to write all right reserved, without prejudice and without recourse. I was left with no choice but to e-sign and I signed the acknowledgment of my e-signnature with all rights reserved without recourse and without prejusdice. I was never given any disclosure about the loan and about all my rights as a consumer, especially rights to rescind the contract, right to opt-out, all that by law is included in the finance charges and that no deposit is required for a loan as it should be part of finance charges. I was never given any information about the loan, terms, finance charges, my rights as a consumer. None of the information within the contract was explained to the and when asked questions the dealership didn't have any explanation. I was asked to give a down payment of {$4600.00} which I did in cash. After asking several times for a receipt I was never given a receipt. I left the dealership without a car and without a copy of the contract I had just sign. In fact to this day I do not have a copy of this contract that I signed. The loan was immediately assigned to Credit Acceptance Corporation when I signed for the loan. I was given the car on XX/XX/XXXX and shortly after the car started shacking and making noises. I took it to my mechanic and was told it has a faulty motor, needs XXXX rear tire, both rear wheel bearing, rear shock and balance for all rear tires, the front bumper is falling off. I was deceived into buying an unsafe, mechanically unsound and faulty car. I was deceived into signing a loan for which I didn't get a copy to review prior to signing, I was rushed through the process. I was taken advantage due to my credit situation and my need for a car and the dealership and Credit acceptance bank took advantage by selling an over priced car and having high interest rates. I have sent as of today XX/XX/XXXX my recession to the contract to Credit Acceptance Corporation as I was entered into there was fraud, deceptive, unfair and coercive actions that took place in the transaction. it is also worth mentioning that Credit Acceptance Corporation was sued by Massachusetts attorney general due to their deceptive and unfair business practice and other violations and a settlement was reached in XXXX

I was looking to get transportation and decided to finance being preapproved by XXXX XXXX after being pre-approved I went on to look for a vehicle I decided to go to a dealership close to where I work as I see the cars in the lot every day. I purchased a car from XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX NY XX/XX/XXXX with a down payment of {$550.00} as I was preapproved by XXXX when I came to pick up the vehicle I was told they went with Credit acceptance as the financing company because they offer a warranty and XXXX won't answer the calls for approval the dealer had already registered the vehicle with NY XXXX XX/XX/XXXX I notified the dealership of electrical issues I noticed and was denied the ability to return or trade in the vehicle. XX/XX/XXXX the check engine light came on and I visited the dealer he told me that was normal and not to worry about it as I responded this has never happened to me out of all the cars I've owned and it happens to a car I financed is not acceptable, I requested the inspection report and bill of sale instead I was told they cant find my paperwork. XX/XX/XXXX as I was driving on the expressway the vehicle stalled and transmission failed XX/XX/XXXX the vehicle was towed to the recommended repair shop by the dealer with no transportation the dealer denied me again to trade the vehicle in or another form of transportation XX/XX/XXXX I was told by the repair shop that the transmission had been leaking oil for a while and would need to be replaced after back and forth with the dealership he agreed to give me a loaner car while having the loaner car the check engine light came on and it had an issue that I had to pay to recharge the battery I called the dealer multiple times and left messages with no answer or response.. XX/XX/XXXX I got a call saying the car is repaired and ready for pick up when I picked the car up I noticed the heat wasn't working anymore and everytime I would come to a stop the car would accelerate and decelerate I returned it to repair shop where the owner/ mechanic stated it may be a motor issue or something else I left the car at the repair shop. XX/XX/XXXX I received another call from the dealer saying the car is ready to be picked up and everything that was and issue was fixed and replace but instead I had to pick the car up from the dealership and not the repair shop where I left the vehicle when I got in the car to start it up the dealer got in the loaner car and left the car never headed up, the window was still not working and still had acceleration issue I waited over an hour at the dealership waiting for the dealer to return he didn't so I left I called and visited as many times as possible each time I was told the owner isn't there or would be ignored the same day I went to the repair shop and was told nothing was done to the car after being replaced. XX/XX/XXXX the check engine light came on again I visited the dealer more and no response from my first financed car resulted in a lot of mental, emotional and financial damage.

A charging a down payment where no cash should have been included is a violation of TILA 15 USC 1638 ( a ) ( 2 ) ( a ). and is misrepresentation the amount financed.

This is a counter response to Credit Acceptance Corp made onXX/XX/XXXX Complaint ID XXXX 1 ) Credit Acceptance was aware of issues with car based on XX/XX/XXXX email from dealer, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX diagnostic done by XXXX and finally a denial from warranty company. 2 ) Failed to disclose car was for rental use while discussing XXXX XXXX ran XXXX but left detail of rental use history. Is why I believe possible salvaged title. 3 ) Refused to acknowledge car sold way above market value and why only bank that would approve such a price. Terms were can only use Credit Acceptance with that dealer. 4 ) Dearler owned dates, sold to me dates and prior history owners not reflective on Title. XXXX XXXX ran not provided only verbal. All of XX/XX/XXXX my complaint was ignored despite several emails requesting complaint status. Only thing told was they are trying to get dealer to pay for repair cost. Was asked to provide car Diagnostics only a few days ago not giving me time to send. Instead stating I wouldn't send them. They are aware that I only have a few hours between work and that I would provide. Again only asked 4 days ago gave me 4 business days to send on an investigation that began XX/XX/XXXX. Credit Acceptance is falsely putting words in my mouth omitting an email onXX/XX/XXXX to dealer and dealers response ( They have had since XX/XX/XXXX ) which clearly shows I had no knowledge of issues with car other than what was described by dealer as wind roof rack noise.. wasn't until after sale and driving on the highway was it apparent something is seriously wrong. And it was!! Wheel Bearings. Wheel bearing noises are mostly heard when driving car at high speeds not the 35 MPH test drive speed. Email from dealer, XXXX Diagnostics all sent via email to Credit Acceptance Corp and despite all of that wants to blame me. Credit Acceptance Corp also attempted to convince me that a wheel Hub bearing and Hub Assembly is Normal wear and tear??? Should last the life of the car per XXXX. Is another reason I strongly feel their is more history to car not being disclosed and possibly salvaged. Warranty controled solely by Credit Acceptance and I have no rights to a denial, appeal or even cancelation of such a bogus warranty. I filed directly with FTC requesting to pick up complaint. All knew they sold me an Unsafe, overpriced vehicle with a interest rate not allowed in Michigan?????? Or Is it Florida??? Company has implied they are investigating in actuality they are only passing the buck. Attached Diagnostic of wheel Bearing failure XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX with Mileage well below the 1513 miles Credit Acceptance stated I drove before discovering. Clearly was discovered the evening of sale and on XX/XX/XXXX. Attached is the additional diagnostic done on XX/XX/XXXX, email to and from dealer, copy of warranty contract with no pre exsisting clause implied, picture of car still for sale by dealer on carguns website and that was way above value,

I got sold into this loan and did not really understand the loan. I was told by the representative that I could refinance in a year which on my credit report it shows I was in good standing, but they make it impossible for you to do that. I did not understand how much of a predatory loan it was. My car started to break down shortly after I bought it and the wrong size battery was put in the car which in time causes more problems. I contacted a company about refinancing the loan and they said that credit acceptance sold me the car for way more than it was worth and that i would have to pay the difference of {$7000.00} before I could refinance the loan. I was told that during covid they put me on disaster relief which put my payments on hold but then I see that they put a mark on my credit for more than 150 days late after I told them I was refinancing the loan with someone else. Due to them doing this I was not able to refinance. Everytime I try to pay online it tells me I can not pay online due to past due balance so I am forced to pay with a representative which they charge you to pay over the phone. Usually the representatives are rude and do not want to give you any payment options they just want to take the car. i bought this car a couple years ago at {$14000.00} and now I still owe {$11000.00}. I asked for copies of my payments and other paperwork showing how much I paid and how much I still owe because that information is not online and I was denied. When you tell them you are financially not able to make the payments they ask you why and then they want to put you on a payment plan that is even more than what you pay monthly. I pay XXXX a month and fell behind on bills. My only options are to pay {$400.00} to start the payment agreement and {$300.00} everytime i get paid. So they want to me to pay {$1000.00} a month roughly when I expressed I am in a financial hardship. I would of been happier spending {$6000.00} on this car as there is one down my street selling for that much but instead if I am not able to pay this car loan off within 6 years I will have paid {$23000.00}. I would be okay with this if I had a newer car and paid {$400.00} for. That is not what I am paying for. I have a 2014 chevy cruze. I tried tp trade this car in fopr another car and the delaership told me that I should have never signed a car loan through credit acceptance because it ruins peoples credit and now that is exactly what I am dealing with. I have XXXX children and another one on the way so you could imagine how hard it is going to be for me to have a XXXX XXXX with XXXX kids but now I feel like there is absolutely nothing I can do and on top of that credit acceptance ruined my chances of getting a home because of the damage that has been done to my credit. I have been very communitive with them on my financial hardships and am left to suffer with the fact that I was sold into such a bad company that does not care at all for their customers.

This started back in XX/XX/2021 I called credit acceptance a vehicle loan company to inform them I was having issues due to the Covid 19 problems with my pay being shorted they did not want to help other than tell me I could catch up by paying more the next three payments. That doesnt help when your pay gets cut. I then found a statement form them on their website explaining that they were not reporting lates if you were affected by the Covid 19 issues. I contacted them they were not very helpful I then contacted them every month since to report the credit the way they stated they would on the webpage. I then notified the three credit reporting agencies XXXX XXXX and experience about the issue of reporting wrong information they said they had the correct information being reported by the creditor no dispute was necessary. I then wrote all three reporting agencies and credit acceptance and even had print outs and credit report statements added in these letters showing what I was reading and seeing and they would not do anything about it. XXXX did change the late pats to a freeze at on time during that time so cant complain about them transunion has said they do not investigate weather the information is correct or not other than contacting the creditor I explained that thats not investigating that is taking one sides word over the whole story and going with it since they pay to be reporting that is not correct. XXXX again has lost the dispute and wants to have me send another. Now XXXX says they had made a mistake and is further investigating the dispute and just wants to add a statement that I was effected by Covid I said thats not good enough if the creditor says they are gon na do this they need to do this for everyone that was effected I have dates names of people spoke to and times of conversations dates and information sent via mail out and of mail being excepted at these reporting agencies and credit acceptance. I am tired of bug greedy corporations and these credit reporting agencies picking on people not correcting information especially in these times that people are reliant on their stupid scores for everything from rent to insurance to utilities even sometimes being given a job or denied a job. These scores since they think they are so important need to be reflected as correctly as possible and they dont seem to care. My score dropped on XXXX XXXX alone from a XXXX in XX/XX/2021 to a XXXX last month. I have not been late on anything nor have I applied for any credit everything is basically the same from that time till now except my credit acceptance account. Which again needed help with but they refused to do anything but let me be five days late then bam got a 30 day and a 60 day late all the way till last month. Now they are calling every hour and not answering the other line they wont leave messages but I have a phone log of them calling every hour or two same day for several days in a row. Illegal as all can be.

THIS IS NOT A DUPLICATE COMPLAINT!! CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION HAS COMMITTED CRIMINAL INDIVIDUAL ACTIONS WILLINGLY AND KNOWINGLY as pursuant to 15 usc 1611. Credit Acceptance Corporation has violated my federally protected consumer rights under 15 usc 1692 and 15 usc 1605 during a consumer credit transaction on XX/XX/XXXX for a used vehicle. I am the consumer and original creditor, and NATURAL PERSON i do not validate the alleged debt. As pursuant to 15 usc 1605a the finance charge should be the sum total of everything. In exhibit A there are three different charges, including a cash down payment. Which is also a violation of my federally protected consumer rights as pursuant to 15 usc 1605a, the finance charge doesn't include a type payable in a comparable cash transaction. Which is also clearly stated in Exhibit A, that the transaction was a consumer credit transaction. Yet there was a fraudulent loan that took place.I ask can CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION define the term " Loan '' to me under the FDCPA? As pursuant to 15 usc 1692j a false and deceptive form was furnished in connection with alleged debt in the form of a contract, which CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION claims is a " Loan ''. I have reached several times to correct this issue with Credit Acceptance Corporation, including asking for validation of debt and as pursuant to 15 usc 1692g Credit Acceptance Corporation has not done so. They have willingly and knowingly been non complaint and have damaged my reputation. Which is also a violation as pursuant to 15 usc 1692d ( 1 ) damaging my reputation. I have reached out to the CFPB and XXXX, Credit Acceptance Corporation has caused so much stress and pain mentally and emotionally in my life that enough is enough. Due to the attack on my reputation and inaccurate reporting, i am unable to provide for my family which is very devastating. Pursuant to 15 USC 1692c ( c ) I have notified CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION in writing that I refuse to pay this alleged debt, and I am demanding that CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION cease all forms of communication with me through any and all mediums. But CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION still communicates with me indirectly about the alleged debt, through false information furnished on my consumer report which violates 15 usc 1692c ( c ). Pursuant to 15 USC 1692c ( c ) ( 2 ) I am invoking my specified remedy as a consumer, and the original creditor I am demanding all of the following : XXXX out the balance on this account. Return all payments made on account as pursuant to 15 usc 1692h. Pay total cost of consumer credit transaction including down payment. Pay the attached invoice and compensate me for every violation labeled in the attached exhibits. Deletion from all consumer reports. I will also be mailing the copies of AFFIDAVIT, CEASE AND DESIST, DEBT VALIDATION, INVOICE to the Attorney General. These documents were also certified sent to Credit Acceptance Corporation XX/XX/XXXX.

CREDIT ACCEPTANCE IS THE WORST! Tennessee law requires that your lender send you a 10-day letter after it has repossessed your car. This letter is official notice that youre entitled to redeem the vehicle by paying off the loan, plus fees and costs associated with the repossession. You then have 10 days to come up with the money, and your lender cant sell the car until after this redemption period has passed. Predatory lending is any lending practice that imposes unfair or abusive loan terms on a borrower. It is also any practice that convinces a borrower to accept unfair terms through deceptive, coercive, exploitative or unscrupulous actions for a loan that a borrower doesn't need, doesn't want or can't afford. Prepayment penalties plus they made my note seem cheap just to add unnecessary charges and taxes when I tried to pay. When I extra and paid on time I was still marked as late. AND LITERALLY NOTHING WENT TO MY ACTUAL BALANCE. My car stopped working two days after I got it, I notified them. They wouldnt do anything about it or defer at least one payment. When I finally got it back working. The ALTERNATOR AND STARTER WENT OUT ON A 2014! I told them that this goes against LEMON LAWS ( literally the same week I got my car ) I WAS PAYING A NOTE ON A CAR I COULDNT USE FOR TWO MONTHS!! The MOTOR WAS BAD. They gave me the car and supposedly it had a oil change. WHY WAS BLACK TAR COMING OUT. The pieces connect to the oil container were melted on and the piece had to be broken off at XXXX. Over {$600.00} for the replacements. they wouldnt give me the info to do a LEMON LAW claim so I mailed it to them! Which is what the state says to do to claim lemon laws and they are supposed to forward it. They failed to notify me of selling the car ( AFTER I TRIED TO GET IT BACK the next day!! because I put a lot of money into it AND THEY WOULDNT GIVE IT BACK ) which is required BY LAW. I literally had the cash amount to pay it off from a school refund. They told me if I paid it off early I would have to pay a lot extra ( prepayment fees ) Their loans are so predatory! My interest kept changing. They sold my car while I was trying to get it back and literally didnt notify me that the sold it. Not even a letter in the mail! Not to mention, when I called to get deferred because the XXXX WAS NOT WORKING. The lady asked me why did you get a car if you dont have money to fix it then I said maam could we keep it professional and she cursed me out. I hung up and called back. Only had one nice man that I would talk to! This company is THE WORSE COMPANY I EVER EXPERIENCED. Now they wont settle with me or delete it off my credit when its not my fault and I tried to reconcile! YOU SOLD ME A XXXX AND WOULD NOT LET ME DO A CLAIM OR GIVE IT BACK. I lost my job messing with that car A GOOD JOB. I got the car on XX/XX/XXXX, it stopped on XX/XX/XXXX. Got it fixed and it stopped completely in XXXX In total I have put more than $ 2k in the car

On or around XX/XX/XXXX I received a copy of my consumer credit report from XXXX and XXXX upon careful examination of my reports I discovered an auto loan that was open in my name that didn't belong to me with Credit Acceptance corporation in XXXX Michigan. Since I had been an ongoing victim of identity theft since XXXX I immediately reached out to the credit bureaus explaining to them that I had not opened a car loan account with Credit Acceptance and sent them my I.D . theft affidavit that I had filed with the Michigan Attorney Generals office in XXXX. I asked them to contact Credit Acceptance on my behalf and provide me with a wet ink contract that bears my signature and contract with the company binding me to this debt. After two months with no response I became frustrated. So on XX/XX/XXXX I reached out to Credit Acceptance and told them that this account didn't belong to me and could possibly belong to a family member with the same name. I spoke with someone name XXXX in the Compliance department. She had me fax over my I.D . a copy of my birth certificate and a copy of the I.D.theft affidavit. I went on to tell her that I was an ongoing victim of identity theft. She reassured me that she would get to the bottom of the matter and get with me as soon as possible. Months went by with no word from her or the company. Repeated numerous calls were made to the company attempting to resolve this matter. When someone finally contacted me the person told me that they knew that the account didn't belong to me and that it was more than likely opened up by a family member with the same name. They also informed me that it was nothing that they could do about it and that it would be up to me to go after this person. Furthermore they told me that this debt would remain on my credit report. After experiencing my identity stolen and me doing everything that I thought possible to do to prevent from this happening again I felt devastated. How could a company put a debt on your credit report even after they found out that you were not the one who opened the account? Why weren't they required to produce the wet ink contract that was signed at the time of this account being opened? So fast forward five years and this account is still on my credit report adversely affecting my credit score and damaging my credit worthiness. Ive sent numerous letters to the credit bureaus disputing this account and asking for them to make Credit Acceptance show proof or verification of this debt with a wet ink contract bearing my name and signature. All to no avail. Ive also asked them to show me their method of verification. They respond the same as usual and tell me that the account was verified and it is still on my credit report. So in another good faith effort Im reaching out to the CFPB in hopes of getting these items removed off of my credit report for good.Thank you in advance for your time and consideration regarding this matter.

I just found out from doing a case search on myself that Credit Acceptance reopened a judgement from XX/XX/XXXX that was closed. Although I dont understand much of the case text, it appears the initial filing was XX/XX/XXXX, but shows a bankruptcy entry XX/XX/XXXX. Then on XX/XX/XXXX they sought garnishment & on XX/XX/XXXX there was a confession of assets. I know without a doubt I was never served any court notices, I absolutely didnt report or have any assets to report & the address they have on the reopened court record I left XXXX of XXXX. I did not have a stable address until XX/XX/XXXX. To my knowledge this is the result of a co-owned vehicle in which the other owner decided to take and would not give me knowledge of its whereabouts. I spoke to Credit Acceptance & told them what the co-owner had done in addition to me finding out he was filing bankruptcy. They informed me that the vehicle hadnt been paid on for over 3 months & the XXXX alerted them that it was uninsured. I asked if I was able to get the vehicle back could I try to make a payment arrangement and Id insure it. They only told me to recover the vehicle from him & involve the police if need be and at that point theyd help me resolve the balance & make future payments. XXXX days after I was able to recover the vehicle ( it wound up in my parking pad, no tags, title or registration & XXXX key in the seat ) it was repossessed. I had immediately called them to tell them I was in possession of the vehicle & asked about them helping me. The woman I spoke to was extremely rude, told me I was lying and shed have to talk to a supervisor and get back to me. The vehicle was gone and I never received a call back until days after they took it. At that point I was told that I couldve made a {$50.00} payment & began getting on track, but there wasnt an option to do anything now that itd been repossessed & ultimately Id still be responsible for the remaining balance. To my knowledge the vehicle sold at auction for a decent price and because of the down payment & prior payments made there was about {$3000.00} possibly less, I cant remember the exact figures, but it wasnt anywhere near the {$6500.00} judgement against me. When loan obtained in XX/XX/XXXX the sticker price was under {$10000.00}, leaving under {$7000.00} after the the down payment. At least thats what I thought & was explained at the dealership, but depending on which person from Credit Acceptance you were able to get on the line ( NEVER THE SAME & APPARENTLY NOTES WERE NOT CONSISTENTLY PUT INTO THEIR SYSTEM ) you would get different numbers, scenarios or blatant disrespect & disregard for you as a customer let alone human being. I have serious concerns for myself & if dealing with this company because I feel they are deceptive & believe they may of very well falsified documents & information in order to effectively get a judgment against me that I happened to find on my own.

RE : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ACCOUNT # XXXX On or about, XX/XX/XXXX I received a XXXX notice from the IRS. The notice stated that the IRS received a Form XXXX from XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. The Form XXXX reported a cancellation of debt in the amount of {$8400.00}. This caused my XXXX tax return, which was filed on or about XX/XX/XXXX, to be flagged for review. The IRS is now stating that I owe {$4400.00} for not reporting the income on the XXXX. The issue that I am having is that I filed for Chapter XXXX Bankruptcy and the debt owed to XXXX XXXX was discharged in XXXX. Apparently, XXXX XXXX depends on a third party to receive bankruptcy notifications. They never received notification of my discharge and therefore, was showing my debt still being owed. This was no fault of mine. After eight years, XXXX XXXX decides to file the XXXX. Upon receipt of the IRS notification, I contacted XXXX XXXX. I advised them that the debt had been discharged. I spoke with a bankruptcy representative named XXXX. She pulled a copy of the discharge from PACER and promised to re-open my account in order to flag it as a bankruptcy discharge. She also promised to reach out to the finance team to have the XXXX situation corrected. I waited two weeks and called back to follow up. At that time, I spoke with XXXX. XXXX was very helpful and noted that XXXX did not follow through on my request. Upon permission from her supervisor ( XXXX ), XXXX reopened my account while I was on the line. She added a discharge to it and submitted the request to the finance team. After a week, I called back and spoke with another representative who was very abrasive ( I did not get her name due to the tone of the conversation ). She told me that I had to contact my tax professional because they had filed the form. She stated that the supervisor ( XXXX ) told her that there was nothing further that could be done. This was contrary to all that I had been told. After being told that she wasn't going to argue with me, I informed this representative that I was going to hang up and call back. When I did, all of my information appeared to have been deleted from the automated system. I got another pleasant representative, I didn't get her name either, but she transferred me to XXXX. XXXX advised that the finance team was being unresponsive and she couldn't give out their contact information. I went on to explain to her that this was the fault of XXXX XXXX for not doing their due diligence in managing their bankruptcy accounts. I now owe the IRS and they have confiscated my tax refund. This by no means was my fault at all. Because XXXX XXXX erroneously filed a XXXX eight years after the discharge, they should be held liable in fixing this. They are breaking Federal Bankruptcy laws by pursuing a debt after it has been discharged. They have a team of professionals that have the ability to expeditiously correct this issue.

I was a first time interested buyer of a car at a dealership called XXXX XXXX XXXX located at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX NY XXXX. First red flag was the place of business never picked up any of my phone calls during several days of calling. I was interested in a car I saw posted online. After leaving a voicemail, I was then reached by someone who connected me to a person who worked at the location named " XXXX XXXX '' who eventually made an appointment for me to come into the dealership to view the car I wanted. On XX/XX/XXXX he proceeded to show me the car that was $ XXXX. As it was my first vehicle, I believed it was way over my budget. He showed me a different used XXXX white XXXX priced at $ XXXX. I accepted to purchase the vehicle but as they explained to me the cost of the vehicle will now have to be increased to $ XXXX due to my credit and age. I didn't understand why if my credit wasn't the best, why would the price increase. As a new buyer and a XXXX XXXX XXXX with little to no knowledge about how loans work, after some pressure tactics and convincing I accepted. I wanted to place a {$3000.00} down payment on the vehicle to lower my loan amount. As I will demonstrate on my original receipt that the company hand wrote clearly states the price of the vehicle $ XXXX and also stated down payment of $ XXXX and does not clearly deduct the $ XXXX from the original price. I was told to sign some documents for the loan. Failure on my part was to double check the loan documents as I was so excited to have my first car. After a few days discussing with my parents the ordeal I decided to review the loan documents and realized that not only did they not reduce my down payment from the original price but the loan was financed for more than $ XXXX. I tried calling the dealership many times with no answer. When I was finally able to get in contact with someone, they told me that I had also paid for a mandatory extended warranty which had raised my price. None of which was explained to me prior to signing. I had at that point realized I was deceived and a loan with " Credit Acceptance '' was taken for {$16000.00} with an interest rate of 15.99 %. I now had a payment of {$380.00} a month ( for 66 months ) in addition to a first time driver insurance cost of {$600.00} per month. This has been a monthly cost of {$980.00} for the past 9 months. This is nearly 40 % of my monthly income ( {$2500.00} ). I question this rationale, how did Credit Acceptance approved this car loan? when my monthly income was documented. Who misrepresented the cost of credit here? the dealership or loan company? XXXX XXXX also facilitated the contact with a rep from XXXX XXXX to honor me car insurance. Now after 9 months of struggling to make these payments, I have now decided it was time to report the nightmare this unjust, deceiving, unlawful and unscrupulous selling tactics this company has in place.

Now comes XXXX XXXX, pursuant to the underlying case as to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau v. Credit Acceptance Corporation, Case No. XXXX XXXX, XXXX. The CFPB, XXXX XXXX, has brought action against CAC for obscuring the true cost of its loans to its car buying customers and cutting back room deals with its affiliate car dealerships to increase their profits. XXXX XXXX asserts that he was and currently is a recipient of these unlawful acts committed by CAC and files this complaint while adding the XXXX XXXX XXXX. As CFPB 's suit asserts regarding CAC 's New York customers, XXXX XXXX is asserting the same happening to him in Maryland with three retail installment loans, two priors and one current. The first one was a XXXX XXXX XXXX sold by XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX ; APR 22.99 %, Finance charge {$5100.00}, Amount financed {$8800.00}, Total of payments, {$14000.00}, Total sales price $ XXXX {$15000.00}, Payments {$400.00} @ XXXX payments beginning XX/XX/XXXX. Second contract, XXXX XXXX XXXX sold by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXXXXXX XXXX ; APR 22.99 %, Finance charge, {$12000.00}, Amount financed {$15000.00}, Total of payments {$27000.00}, Total sales price $ XXXX {$29000.00}, Payments {$420.00} @ XXXX payments beginning XX/XX/XXXX. And currently, XXXX XXXX XXXX sold by XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Note : a XXXX search says this company is temporarily closed ; moreover APR 22.99 %, Finance charge {$10000.00}, Amount financed {$14000.00}, Total payments {$25000.00}, Total sales price # XXXX {$27000.00}, Payments {$410.00} @ XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX all three contracts had XXXX XXXX XXXX connected who did not honor their part of the contract. For example when XXXX XXXX 's current car needed his motor replaced which was totally covered by them, but they made him pay {$3000.00} and they paid the rest. This was money he did not have but had to borrow. However the results of these actions is nothing but fraud of contract which made and is making XXXX XXXX pay exorbitant cost for vehicle ( s ) beyond the dealership price and value. Moreover, CAC is making additional undisclosed money between the finance and credit sections beyond XXXX XXXX affordability thereby increasing their profits. This action violates Maryland 's usury laws. And again CAC is still doing it as XXXX XXXX continues to pay them a weekly {$120.00} toward his {$410.00} monthly payment. As a result of CAC 's fraud and deceit and other illegalities, XXXX XXXX seeks monetary relief of XXXX XXXX dollars for disgorgement of unjust gains they made and is making from all three of his Installment contracts. Additionally, he seeks to only pay the dealership cost of his current vehicle of {$10.00} and put the {$3000.00} deposit toward it which results in a balance of {$7000.00} owed and decrease his payments accordingly. Respectfully Submitted.

I am clear that those rights have been violated. Please see the list of violations that occurred during my consumer credit transaction to purchase the XXXX XXXX XXXX noted below. It is a fact that I provided a cash down payment in the amount of {$2300.00}, however per 15 USC 1605a no cash down payment can be collected when there is a finance charge. Pursuant to 15 USC 1662b it is illegal to require a down payment in conjunction with an extension of consumer credit. It is a fact that in the Retail Agreement It States that I have given the Dealership XXXX XXXX XXXX security interest. 15 U.S. Code 1667 ( 5 ) The terms security and security interest mean any interest in property which secures payment or performance of an obligation. It is a fact that I understand pursuant to 15 USC 1605, that the finance charge is the sum of all charges. On the 1st page of the contract the finance charge is misrepresented to be only {$10000.00} when in fact the sum of all charges would be {$27000.00}. This is a violation of 15 USC 1692e ( 2 ) ( A ). I am the Creditor. It is a Fact that I exercised my right to extend my credit. It is a Fact that I understand that Pursuant to 15 USC 1602 ( I ) ( M ) ( I ) The term credit card means any card, plate, coupon book or other credit device existing for the purpose of obtaining money, property, labor, or services on credit. ( M ) The term accepted credit card means any credit card which the cardholder has requested and received or has signed or has used, or authorized another to use, for the purpose of obtaining money, property, labor, or services on credit. Once you obtained my SSN you accepted my ( Credit Card ) as payment. SSN belongs to the SSA And anything purchased with that identifier number Is an obligation of the United States. It is a Fact that the Pursuant of 18 U.S.C. 8 Means that your are in Violation of The False Claims Act ( FCA ), 31 U.S.C. 3729 - 3733. On the 1st page of the contract the finance charge is misrepresented to be only {$10000.00} when in fact the sum of all charges would be {$27000.00}. This is a violation of 15 USC 1692e ( 2 ) ( A ) Credit Acceptance has engaged in deceptive and abusive acts or practices in violation of the Consumer Financial Protection Act of XXXX ( the CFPA ), 12 U.S.C. 5531 ( a ), 5536 ( a ) ( 1 ), 5536 ( a ) ( 3 ), by obscuring the cost of credit for auto loans and taking unreasonable advantage of My lack of understanding of the risk of default and the severity of the consequences, as well as my inability to protect my interests. I was forced to obtain insurance misrepresenting the voluntary nature of add-on products. The members of XXXX XXXX XXXX staff did not even disclose that insurance was to be included with the finance charge, they just called XXXX insurance company on my behalf and made me contract with them separately. This is a violation of what is written in this law.

My name is XXXX XXXX I was invited by my friend XXXX XXXX to come down to a dealership at XXXX XXXX in the XXXX Ny so she can purchase a car. This was on XXXX XXXX. They told her she needed a cosigner on the car so she called her brother XXXX XXXX to be her cosigner and I told them if he doesn't work they can use my name. The man who was doing the loan process came back to my friend and told her it was going to be a 3 person loan & that it's through a company called credit acceptance and it's a company that will help build everyone on the loan credit. And then after 3 months you can bring the car back & refinance for a lower interest rate. So she made a down payment of {$1200.00} & gave them the coupon from online that they will pay {$1500.00}. And they told the dealer name XXXX to take her for a XXXXest drive in the XXXX XXXX XXXX after she gave her insurance information paid for it & go the ID cards. I went with her and XXXX to test drive the car & when we came back they had us sign papers & they had to do her paperwork over cuz they kept spelling her name wrong. I should've known something was up when that kept happing, especially since all the income paperwork was in her name and they had her driver 's license also & bank statements. They actually asked for mine & XXXX XXXX bank statements. My complaint is I was sitting at home & a bill came in the mail from Credit Acceptance that was a billing statement & I was like I didn't purchase no car I only make {$800.00} in social security XXXX a month how in the XXXX am I to pay this bill that's not mine. I called them & they said I signed the papers for the car & I said we all signed papers that none of us ever received and I didn't sign for no car loan so take my name off the account. I've been disputing this for a year & they claim I signed these documents & yes I signed documents they said was a cosigner documents and they went to XXXX XXXX house to have him sign documents also. I reported them to the XXXX & they contacted Credit Acceptance and they did a internal investigation and said the dealer and there findings is that the dealer wouldn't have put me in a loan unless I showed proof of income & that I told them I make {$1900.00} extra a month & I'm like were the heck did they get that from, cuz if that was the case I wouldn't had went down to them for a XXXX XXXX XXXX that can't fit my XXXX body. One more thing XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX sister he cosigned for is the only one that had a income that was more than myself & XXXX each month. They also said signed the registration also I don't know how I pulled that off when I don't have a driver 's license. I would post documents but it's been a year and they still haven't given any of us proof of sale documentation & none of the paperwork that was signed & to this date they still haven't presented them, the dealership keep saying they mailed out the papers

I am a XXXX, so I often spend periods of up to 9 months out of the country while I am on a ship. While I was at sea, I wanted to fix my credit, so I paid everything outstanding off. When I got back to shore at the end of 9 months I went to buy a car. In XXXX I went to XXXX XXXX of XXXX Mississippi and bought a used 2013 XXXX XXXX. They said that although I had nothing negative, and a {$2000.00} down payment, I didn't have enough positive credit to finance a used car. I said there must be something they can do, so the car dealer called Credit Acceptance. First of all, I believe the loan amount is not what I agreed to pay. The car itself was around {$4000.00} on the lot, and the financed loan amount according to Credit Acceptance is more than {$13000.00}!!! OK, so I called and told Credit Acceptance about it, and they said it would get straightened out and in the mean time I should continue making payments. Every time I would call and let them know that I thought the financing amount was wrong. They accepted my payments, and accepted my payments. I even paid a bit extra trying to pay down the loan. This continued for several months until one month I went to go pay and they wouldn't accept my payment - they said they were no longer handling my loan anymore and provided no additional information!! They didn't contact me, they didn't tell me who I needed to start paying, they couldn't tell me my payoff amount or anything - they just said they were no longer handling my loan. Not only that, they said the amount I paid early they had made a check and sent that back to the dealer, XXXX at XXXX XXXX!! I called the dealer, and they said that Credit Acceptance had sent them a check for the difference in my payments! They didn't say how big the check was, or if the car was paid off. I emailed the dealer trying to get something - anything - in writing, and I got nowhere. I can see on my credit report I have a XXXX point drop, as I was trying to refinance at the time and was completely unaware that my loan was being sold. I am very upset at Credit Acceptance for selling my loan, sending the DEALER back my " overpayment '' and not notifying me AND doing nothing to straighten out the wrong loan amount. I would like to OWN the car but at this point I don't even know who to pay!! Although I once talked to XXXX on the phone, he said to email him, so I emailed him and he never responded - I have tried to call repeatedly and not gotten through to XXXX again. Another issue is I was charged a title transfer fee and I believe I was charged twice - once at the dealer and then again when the same amount was rolled into the financing. I am currently at sea, and can't even drive the vehicle and very annoyed that they sent my " overpaid '' money to someone and won't even tell me the amount or how close I am to paying off the loan. This situation is outrageous! Please help!!

My husband and I have an auto loan through Credit Acceptance Corporation for our XXXX XXXX XXXX. We took this auto loan out in XXXX of XXXX and ALWAYS made timely payments without fail, with payments being automatically deducted from our bank account on a bi-weekly basis. In early XXXX of XXXX, my husband and I were both furloughed from our jobs due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, we were unable to make our payments through NO fault of our own. I immediately contacted Credit Acceptance and explained the situation and they said that we should put our payments on pause until we were able to return to our jobs. The very first concern that I brought up was about our credit reporting. My husband and I have worked EXTREMELY, EXTERMELY hard over the last two years to bring our credit scores up to where they need to be to build our dream home. I was assured by Credit Acceptance that this would NOT harm our credit scores because it would be reported that we were affected by a natural disaster/pandemic and that all credit reporting for any payments that we would miss as a result of this pandemic would be FROZEN so as to NOT harm all of the hard work we have put into improving our scores. Long story short, we put our payments on pause for a few months until we finally went back to work. We have been making on-time payments ever since then, with even a little bit extra added on top of our normal payment amount. Fast forward to this morning, XX/XX/XXXX, my husband and I both received email alerts from XXXX stating that our XXXX scores had decreased and a new late payment had been reported. Having no idea what this could possibly from as we pay ALL of our bills on time and being extremely distraught by this alert, we logged into our credit bureaus and immediately saw that Credit Acceptance had reported us as 180 days late. This is NOT, I repeat NOT accurate. Our credit reporting was to be FROZEN for those missed payments last year because of the pandemic and we have made EVERY SINGLE PAYMENT IN A TIMELY MANNER WITHOUT FAIL SINCE THEM. Now, our credit scores have dropped nearly 20 points as a result of this, RIGHT when we were about to obtain a mortgage for our new home, effectively HALTING our home purchase plans, all because of these fraudulent predators at Credit Acceptance. My husband and I have been EXTREMELY diligent about our payments and ensuring that our good credit remains intact, and now these people have illegally gone back on their word, after making as feel as though we could actually trust them to help us during this pandemic, which had a huge impact on our lives last year. They have DESTROYED our good credit. NO LATE PAYMENTS SHOULD HAVE EVER BEEN REPORTED to our credit bureaus. We will also be consulting our attorney about this. What these people have done is ILLEGAL and DISHONEST and we need our 3 credit reports corrected IMMEDIATELY.

I was having a hard time making my payments on my car after COVID-19 started. I worked at XXXX XXXX at the time. My hours at work got reduced from 40 hours a week to 15-20 hours a week depending on the amount of work that was needing to be done. I contacted Credit Acceptance Corp. and asked if I could defer my payments until my work hours picked back up. I was informed that I should not have bought a vehicle that I could not pay the loan on. I am aware that no one could have predicted that COVID-19 was going to happen or that my hours at work would be cut in half. I tried to explain to the guy I talked to on the phone that my hours were only going to be like this for a few weeks, maybe a month. The guy informed me that I could pay the payment late, but that there would be a late charge and he would not be responsible if my car got repossessed. I got behind in my payments, because my hours at work were cut in half for over a month and a half. I once again contacted Credit Acceptance Corp. I asked if there was a way to refinance my loan and see if my payments would go down so I could afford to keep my vehicle. I was told that they would not refinance my loan and that that was something that their company did not do. I tried refinancing my loan through several different loan companies as well to see if maybe I could switch companies and have someone easier to work with. No lender that I contacted would touch my loan or refinance me, because my loan was through Credit Acceptance Corp. In XXXX of XXXX my grandmother passed away. I was her POA and had to take time off of work to deal with legal things for her and plan her funeral. I then got even further behind on my loan since I had to take time off work for her funeral and planning and legal things pertaining to her passing. I tried in XXXX of XXXX to trade my vehicle in on a different vehicle. I was informed by the dealership that I could not trade my vehicle in, because of it having a loan through Credit Acceptance Corp. I then gave up on trying to pay for the vehicle and called Credit Acceptance Corp. I asked again if they would work with me on my late payments. I was told no and that they were going to repossess my car. I informed them the address and time the car would be parked at my house for them to come and take it. I voluntarily chose to surrender my car for repossession. I was given no other choice at that time. I am now being sued by XXXX XXXX XXXX for not paying off my loan. They sold the vehicle at auction and did not get close to the loan pay off price of the vehicle. They are now telling me that I have to pay the remaining balance on the loan, which I feel is wrong. It was never my intention to default on my loan and have to give my car up for repossession. I was not in control of my hours being cut at work and COVID-19 happening and changing my financial situation.

Plus it's a dead car I need ya 'll took pick the car up. They said no you're responsible for the car no matter what. I told them the car would be sitting at XXXX to come pick it up.

There's nothing on my credit report from them from XXXX XXXX till XX/XX/XXXX. For some reason when I called they said there system hasn't been updated in 2 years this was sometime in XXXX of XXXX. I said this makes no sense I have the title to my car it was lemon the case was closed, they said they never closed it. So my credit went from a XXXX to XXXX because they reopened a closed account. I called XXXX ... they said the account was sent to an undisclosed creditor from Credit Acceptance in XX/XX/XXXX then again to an undisclosed creditor on XX/XX/XXXX. So they are messing with my credit can you please help me I have the title to my car which I last heard is still there.

My name is XXXX XXXX, I'm submitting this complaint on the behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX I XXXX XXXX went down to a car dealership un the XXXX called XXXX XXXX at XXXX XXXX XXXX. I went down there because I needed a automobile & I had a coupon for {$1500.00} that the dealership put with my down payment of {$1200.00}. I was told I would need a cosigner & I asked my brother XXXX XXXX to be my cosigner & he sad yes & they asked him to send his information to a XXXX XXXX email & he did. XXXX XXXX comes into the mix by saying if you need another cosigner for her I'll give you my information & they put his name down on the intake form. XXXX XXXX the sales guy said that the car we have is a XXXX XXXX XXXX & I was like I prefer the XXXX XXXX he said we will work on that. So the loan officer came back to myself & XXXX XXXX & said this is going to be a 3 person car loan from this company called Credit Acceptance they help ppl with bad credit build it up, so I was like cool we all need to build our credit score. They said to me you can put the insurance on the XXXX XXXX XXXX & I was like what about the XXXX XXXX that's the car I came down here for. They was like you start with this car & in three months you can come back down & refinance the loan & get a different car, but you have to make payments on time. So myself & XXXX XXXX signed the paperwork they gave us & said they will have XXXX XXXX XXXX out to XXXX XXXX & have him sign his papers & after that is done we will mail you the copies. So 3 or 4 weeks passed & the car note bill came in the mail with XXXX XXXX name on it & he was like why is this car in my name I don't have a drivers license or money to make payments or pay the insurance. He calls Credit acceptance and told them what is this he said to them he didn't sign to be owner he signed to be cosigner. They mad XXXX XXXX the owner & my brother XXXX XXXX the cosigner & I wasn't on anything but the registration, insurance & the one making the payments not getting anything they said. I'm mad because the loan officer from Credit Acceptance approved this loan on false pretenses. They said they approved the loan cuz it stated he is self employed as a driver making a extra {$1900.00} a month with out documentation & XXXX submitted to them his SOCIAL SECURITY AWARD LETTER saying he only gets {$800.00} a month. They took my brother XXXX birthday & ss # and forged a signature & signed it as XXXX XXXX. The loan company didn't verify any information that was sent to them from XXXX XXXX XXXX I blame them cause nothing adds up & that loan shouldn't have happen. They refuse to address the issue all they can say is you signed it so deal with it.But they approved it and didn't verify anything so that makes them at fault also. I'm gon na send some documents that can support some fraudulent actives

Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Iowa XXXX Re : Request for Removal of Negative Credit Report Entry - Voluntary Repossession Dear CFPB, I hope this letter finds you in good health. I am writing to file a formal complaint and request your assistance in addressing a matter of utmost importance related to a negative credit report entry resulting from a voluntary repossession. This entry is currently impacting my financial wellbeing, and I believe it necessitates your attention and intervention. On XX/XX/2020 i had no choice but to voluntarily surrender my vehicle financed through Credit Acceptance due to financial hardship. The loan terms were originally structured in such a way that the car 's cost was unsustainable, making it impossible for me to meet the payments. The decision to voluntarily return the vehicle was made after thorough consideration of my financial situation and the implications of continuing the loan. I would like to bring to your attention that Credit Acceptance has a history of predatory lending practices and has faced legal actions, including lawsuits by the CFPB and the New York Attorney General 's office. These lawsuits have accused Credit Acceptance of deliberately concealing vital auto loan information from borrowers, ultimately setting them up for failure. These actions are in direct violation of various consumer protection laws and U.S. Codes, including but not limited to : The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, specifically Sections 1031 and 1036, which prohibit unfair, deceptive, and abusive acts and practices in consumer financial services. The Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), which mandates transparency in lending disclosures, ensuring borrowers are fully informed about the terms and costs of their loans. The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which governs the accuracy and fairness of credit reporting, and provides consumers with the right to dispute inaccurate information on their credit reports. Considering the ongoing legal actions against Credit Acceptance and the fact that my voluntary repossession was a direct result of their questionable lending practices, I kindly request that you investigate this matter thoroughly and take the necessary steps to have the negative credit report entry related to this repossession removed from my credit history. I believe that by taking action to rectify this situation, you would not only be safeguarding my rights as a consumer but also sending a strong message to lenders engaging in predatory practices that such behavior will not be tolerated. I appreciate your attention to this matter and thank you for your dedication to consumer protection. I eagerly await a resolution to this issue and request prompt communication regarding the progress of my case..

After being solicited by a dealership from a " Happy Birthday email '', I secured a deal ; however the warranty listed XXXX months. 3,000 miles were given by the dealership. I took the vehicle to the dealership several times for them to assist and " check '' to ensure no major problems. The service manager reassured me up until a few weeks before the car was diagnosed with a transmission issue. With the dealership being 30 miles away. The car was towed on XXXX XXXX, and has been stored until 2,400 worth of labor can be performed. I purchased the extended warranty for 1,266.00. The company refuses to fix the vehicle at its current mileage which is over 61 miles over alloted. A certified letter was sent to the company directly for a resolution. No late payments were recorded until XXXX ; however payments have been rendered despite the vehicles ' storage at the dealership. As a result of reporting from the loan company ; the chance to trade the vehicle with the dealership was denied. A credit report was pulled by the salesman ( without permission ). The salesman stated he was going to see " what was going on with the vehicle ''. He came back with a credit report check document. No further assistance has been provided nor contact from the dealership. After the vehicle fail I did further research and read customer XXXX reviews ; I noticed several customers had a similar experience, and I learned of a federal lawsuit previously brought forth against the loan company. I did not know that this particular dealership was a : XXXX XXXX " everybody rides '' ad within the email. This particular slogan is on local radio and tv stations with the notion " everyone gets approved ''. In the soliticitation email that ad is not stated. I entrusted the dealership to ensure qaulity sales, and products. The vehicle failed at 9 months almost exactly at the correct amount of mileage exhaustion. I also have enticing, and XXXX XXXX text messages from the service manager ; after it was his determination I was not going to let them manipulate me into beleiving they were being professional since signing. In fact, his actions led more to a situation in validating my opinions of business both inside the office, and inside the service area. During the siging period, I was asked if I was " nervous '', and the statement was made that this would " help my credit alot ''. I was confused because my credit was fair at the time as a widow. I invested almost XXXX into the vehilce before the XXXX XXXX failure. After a 600 mile spring break trip, the car malfunctioned tremendously. I had to probe the salesman and the service manager for the final verdict on the car 's diagnose. Still not clear. They can not answer the question, limiting fair trades with competitor lots in the local area. The car was purchased post COVID SARS II.

On XX/XX/XXXX I went to XXXX XXXX and purchased a XXXX XXXX XXXX from wise auto. I traded my XXXX XXXX, put down {$1500.00} cash, and financed the rest through credit acceptance. I begin to have problems with the car immediately and was in constant contact with XXXX XXXX By XX/XX/XXXX I i had to take the car to a automotive repair shop who they recommended, since I had a warranty purchased from them. The repair shop said it needed a engine. I quickly called XXXX XXXX because I had just purchased the car 30 days ago, and I was paying a car note. XXXX XXXX gave me {$300.00} dollars back but I asked for the full amount plus the price of my truck i traded in. I sent them and credit acceptance a letter on XX/XX/XXXX letting them know I wanted to rescind this transaction, but they have yet to contact me. So this leads me to my letter today to you. I have also attached a statement as to what happen with the company they referred me to. XXXX of XXXX the car I had just purchased begin to have problems. I took the car to the dealer and they told me to go to platinum automotive. I drove the car to the location and signed and authorization for an estimate and they were aware that i had a warranty. They processed the claim to my warranty company and they came out to look at the vehicle. After they left they decide not to approve saying prior repairs to the engine which i wasn't aware of because i just purchased the car. I tried to get my car from XXXX XXXX and that's when the made me aware they had already done the repairs. I told them they had no authorization to do the repairs, then they told me the papers i signed authorized the repairs. They wouldn't release the car to me and i made the finance company and dealer aware. They sent a request for a lien and i sent them papers saying they had no right to request a lien. I then sent another letter demanding the vehicles back they illegally said they did repairs on, and illegally repossessed when they were not authorized to do repairs. They then called me and made me aware that they sold the car and there was nothing i could do. The papers they used to file the lien shows i only authorized an estimate so I never agreed to pay them any money, But they took my car and would not give it back. This was the worst experience I've had and i did everything right. I filled a complaint with the security of state in Michigan as well. This is against the law and i'm still expected to pay the note to a car i don't have. Please help me with this situation. I submitted complaints with the security of state in Michigan, the XXXX, and the Attorney General against XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX and credit acceptance on XX/XX/XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX begin to send me threats by text message. They are now saying they know were i live and i need help from the cfpb.

On or about XX/XX/XXXX i purchased a vehicle from Credit Acceptance via XXXX in XXXX MD. The vehicle i would end up financing was a " USED '' XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX with XXXX miles on it. The Annual percentage rate was " 22.99 % '' the " Finance Charge '' was " {$17000.00}. With a down payment of {$1500.00} the " Total Sale Price '' was {$40000.00}. Beginning on XX/XX/XXXX. Credit Acceptance violated consumer protection and debt collection laws and regulations. It was alleged that Credit Acceptance made unfair and deceptive auto loans to thousands of consumers, provided investors with false or misleading information regarding auto securities they offered, and engaged in unfair debt-collection practices. I am a natural living breathing person and a consumer, i am a victim of Credit Acceptance Corp. and am and will be seeking remedy for the repossession of my vehicle that was illegally repossessed and resold without my Knowledge of the opportunity of rescission. Credit Acceptance failed to inform me of my consumer rights. The Interest rate of 22.99 % was predatory and viscous. I have disputed this account with XXXX XXXX XXXX and Credit Acceptance continues to report late payments on my account eventho they agreed to remove the account from all the credit bureaus in XXXX of XXXX Credit Acceptance has violated my rights under the FDCPA and i will seek remedy for violations of 15 U.S. Code 1635 a, b, f, time limit for exercise of right, 15 U.S. code 1605, 1, U.S. code 1640 a, # 1,2, i, b, e, and g. 15 U.S. code 1692 j, Furnishing Deceptive forms a, b, 1692 k, a # 2, b. I have all records and evidence to the matter. I have sent dispute letters through certified mail and verification letters to both the collection agencies and to the Credit bureaus with no avail. This is willfull at this point on both agencies to keep my personal information displayed on these cites in a negative since. I have been at this now for 2 yrs trying to have them rectify the matter at this point i feel it necessary to seek legal assistance on the matter of both Credit Acceptance and XXXX XXXX AND XXXX they have all violated my rights and my privacy. Identity theft is at hand and i never gave anybody or government or agency authorization or consent to report any of my personal information to anyone or at anytime. To this day there remains inaccurate and misleading information on my credit reports by all the bureaus. So this complaint is to Credit Acceptance but also to the irresponsible actions of the bureaus also. I have lost my property job and ability to support my family because of this and have been denied multiple times for credit opportunities because of this misleading illegal and damaging actions by said parties. All this has hindered my rights to XXXX XXXX and the pursuit of happiness.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I was rear ended. From there the vehicle was totaled out. I contacted the lienholder and inquired about GAP Insurance. I was told I did not have that. After reviewing my contract I did in fact have GAP coverage. The lienholder only removed approximately {$800.00}. After questioning them why they told me that is how it works. I advised my contract stated otherwise. After pulling my payment ledger and matching it with my bank I realized that 3-4 payments that were taken from my bank were never posted. Also, I had gotten behind on the loan. While the in fact did work with me they did not advise me because I was on a payment plan that they would be reporting to the credit bureaus that I have not made payments. Actually, they have reported that I have not made any payments to them throughout the entirety of owning the car. When in fact I have. They have completely ruined my credit and are now looking for a balance of over {$2000.00} which should not be owed since I had GAP Insurance and XXXX. So not only are there missing payments never posted to my account, they ruined my credit by reporting no payments made and also have me on the hook for over {$2000.00} when I had XXXX and GAP coverage. I have made several attempts to get answers regarding the matter and I have been treated very poorly and not one customer service member is willing to help. I reviewed their pay ledger to my checking account. They charged over {$800.00} in late fees when I was on a payment plan and was never advised I would receive late fees. Also, when the car was totaled they showed a past due balance on my online account of over {$2000.00}. They had not been posting any payments made all year. They received a check for over {$5000.00} from the insurance company. Once that check was posted they were still showing a past due balance of almost {$400.00} which did not make sense as 1. The past due balance prior had not reflected any XX/XX/XXXX payments and 2. They received a check for over {$5000.00}. I can not purchase a new vehicle since they reported to the credit bureaus that I have not made any payments. In the year XX/XX/XXXX they reported that I had not made 5 months worth of payments when in fact it had been only 1 month. In XX/XX/XXXX they reported I had not made any payments when I had actually made every payment. I borrowed {$11000.00}. In the 3 years of having the vehicle including late fees and the insurance check from the damaged vehicle they have received {$14000.00}. They removed {$830.00} in GAP insurance when my contract states if the vehicle is lost due to theft, confiscation or destruction you WILL NOT owe the difference. I am unsure of where to turn as I have received no help or guidance from their company. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION XXXX XXXX XXXX CREDIT DISPUTE DEPT XXXX, MI XXXX Phone : ( XXXX ) XXXX I received a copy of my credit report and found the following item ( s ) to be errors. I am writing in regards to the above referenced accounts and transactions. This vehicle was repossessed by Credit Acceptance Corporation in the XXXX of Pennsylvania in XX/XX/2019. The exact date of this Repossession is unknown because I was out of the state when the car was taken. Additionally, Once the lender has repossessed the car, a sale of the car may be scheduled. Pennsylvania law requires lenders to provide the debtor with a notice of sale before the sale of the car. This notice must provide the debtor with information in writing of the date, time and location of the scheduled sale. Cars are usually sold at auction to the highest bidder. Personal property found inside a repossessed car may not be kept by the lender. The lender must provide the debtor with information regarding the recovery of personal property. Lenders must return the license plates of the car to the registered owner. Unfortunately, the law was broken and my rights were violated according to Pennsylvania State Repossession Laws. I NEVER received any notice of the scheduled sale of my vehicle. After disputing directly with Credit Acceptance, I received the notices and the certified mail receipts clearly showing they did not timely deliver the proper notices and the mail was returned to sender undelivered. Also, my valuable personal property and license plate was NEVER returned to me and my items were basically stolen. Also, statutes a deficiency can not be claimed unless all of the required notices were properly and timely given, and all of the allowable redemption and cure time limits were adhered to. Please provide copies of the legal notices and proof of the commercially reasonable manner of the resale of the subject vehicle. As per Section 609. Disclosures to Consumers [ 15 U.S.C. 168 1g ], I am entitled to see the source of the information, which is the original contract that contains my signature and please note, the original creditor DID NOT PROVIDE ME any copy of the requested contract. By the provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I demand that these items be investigated and DELETED from my report. It is my understanding that you will re-check these items with the creditor who has posted them. Please DELETE any information that the creditor can not verify. The items that the original creditor sent me as a result of my request for debt validation are ATTACHED in this letter. I will need this re-investigated timely in case I need to pursue legal action including initiating formal complaints to the state attorney general, better business bureau, CFPB and XXXX XXXX XXXX.

I purchased a car from the care dealership ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ). I feel that there were many misleading comments about the purchase of the car such as repairs that were to be done, etc. The interest was also excessive, they charged me XXXX in interest on a XXXX loan. The interest was charged up front which was very heavy. I had to pay on the car for over two years to come back to a little under the original price of the car. I feel that much of this was explained to me after the fact and not before. The print on the contracts is very small and hard to read which I explained to the finance people that I had a hard time reading the contract and asked for help explaining it. After having to deal with trying to get the repairs done on the car which was a whole other story, I found out other issues. When I took the car to the dealership for the repairs, they put a tracking device on my car along with a GPS Starter Interrupt system. To me, this has not only been a complete invasion of my privacy, but dangerous as well as I feel that this has been affecting the way that the car operates. I have taken my car in multiple times to get looked at by mechanics. I have had several tell me that the system could be malfunctioning and affecting the way that the car drives, etc. I have made several calls and complaints about this to Credit Acceptance and the dealership. This is not even legal in the State of Nevada anymore, however, they are getting around this stating that I am grandfathered in and that they can do whatever they want with this. The other issue is that if I ask to make payment arrangements, etc. I get threatened that they are going to shut my car off which they have threatened me on multiple occasions with this. I feel that this is a form of extortion and is also dangerous.. A woman was driving on the freeway in XXXX when a company shut her car off while she was going 60 mph. I have medical issues and do not want to be stranded in 110 degree heat out in the desert if someone at Credit Acceptance gets upset with me and decides to shut my car off, etc. I have had times where I have been on the phone with employees of Credit Acceptance where they tell me that they are going to look me up on the GPS, etc. This is a complete invasion of my privacy and rights. I am very upset about all of this and this has been a great deal of stress on me. I have been making my payments to them and have paid over XXXX on a car that is not even worth this at this time and still over over XXXX on the car. There are major mechanical issues with the car as well ranging from gas smells from the gas tank to the feeling like the breaks are being put on their own, etc. There are times where I do not feel safe driving the car and have told both companies about the problems.

On XX/XX/XXXX I called credit acceptance because I noticed the last bit of my payment didn't come off on the XXXX like it usually does. I didn't think much of it at the time, thinking it would charge me the next day. Not until I checked my credit report and noticed I dropped 56 points. The company had marked my XXXX payment as 30 days late when not even a day has passed. I called on the XXXX and was not even able to get an answer to how this happen. They just wanted me to pay what was due which was XXXX and some change. The first gentleman didn't even try to listen to me stating my payment was XXXX, and once I paid this off the account would be closed. I finally got to send a dispute on behalf after questioning it several times. I had questions on how this can happen, and he absolutely refused to help me what so ever. Just trying to get me to pay despite my understanding it should have been taken out of my account already. I finally went to pay over phone and there was a fee attach to pay over the phone. So not only did they drop my credit score for a payment that was never late, but they wanted me to spend extra to pay what was left. I called to get a person again, and once more had trouble getting any help. The woman stated my auto pay was canceled and said I must have canceled it. Which is not true. When it was set up I was told it would go until I didn't owe anymore. Again it was hard to get any answers out of her. When I asked about me getting marked late she said I've been late on my payment which is not true. I had one late in XX/XX/2016 which I quickly cleared up. In almost 3 years I've been on top of payments and not once was I ever told I was behind. She remarked saying I rarely called and I let her know I didn't have a reason to call. My payments came out on time with no worries all 3 years. Honestly I'm extremely frustrated because I've been working so hard to get my credit up, and at the whim of this company they decided to mark me late for no reason. Then when I try to get an answer I get no help just saying to pay the rest to close the account. Then the real kicker is make me pay a small fee to pay off the rest of my account. The money isn't the issue here. It '' s the fact that the customer service was utterly lacking and has an impact on my credit score. If I try to finance a car again, and it had to be with this company again. I'll just take an uber until I can pay the car off fully in cash. P.s I'm adding screenshots to show how I've been on time for 3 years. How this has affected my credit score. Proof that I paid the remaining amount off. I dont have my bank statements included because I'm not sure if you wish to dig thru 3 years of bank statements, but I will be happy to provide that if it comes down to it.

So back in 2018 I decided to purchase my first vehicle ever off of a car lot. I browsed online. I found something I wanted and then I went to XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX, Arkansas. They took my info after I told them which vehicle caught my eye. Well I was told I couldnt get the one I originally asked for because of my credit and they would want me to put a higher down payment. Well I done traded my car I was driving at the time in for a down payment on a XXXX XXXX XXXX that they pretty much pushed on me. I seen the car through pictures only and they insisted I get XXXX to go with my XXXXXXXX XXXX for a down payment. Well I wanted another car. I thought I was being helped by a business with associates I could trust. Come to find out I was sold a car, taken advantage of and legally robbed of money, my car and my credit took a hit well they sold me a car that the motor was going out in. They took advantage of me so they could make a quick buck. I came back to the company numerous times about what the car was doing. They kept telling me it was a wire. Then I took matters into my own hands and had someone else check out the car. The motor or transmission was pretty much done. I went back to XXXX XXXX and begged them not to do this to me as I was a single/widowed mother/ wife of a serviceman and we were going thru alot of issues that year as it was. Last thing we needed was a car problem that was aloud to hurt us all the way around by law. We they gave me a XXXX XXXX Which was a lemon also but this time it didn't start acting up til about 3 months later. It had wire damage, track stability. Eventually it quit running. Everything on this XXXX was expensive. This company new what they were doing to me and what problems I was getting and didnt care at all but only for themselves just to make a quick buck. I've asked this company to please fix the vehicle and they refused. So I didn't want the vehicle anymore. I was stuck with a vehicle that had so many problems I didn't know what to do. Well now as of today I am being sued for XXXX because of the car loan which is thru credit acceptance. I understand that used cars are as is when purchasing but at the same times these car companies are hurting people left and right and getting away with it. First off, I was getting a car I didn't choose. Yet thought I was still getting a good car which was something to be proud off. Next these car salesmen find us women especially needy ones like me at the time, a quick paycheck. These men lied to me. They even blocked me on XXXX after I begged them numerous times to please help me with this car or give me something else. They blocked me and I was banned from the property. I shouldn't be sued for XXXX amon top ofl being XXXX over on money

On XX/XX/XXXX I pulled a copy of all three credit bureaus and I noticed the creditor CREDIT ACCEPTANCE listed on my credit report were not reporting payments made to the account since XX/XX/XXXX appalled at this error I reached out to the major credit bureaus ( XXXX, XXXX and XXXX ) on XX/XX/XXXX via certified mail I included in this letter an explanation of the error along with a copy of the payment history from the creditor CREDIT ACCEPTANCE along with an government issue ID and a utility bill to correct my current physical location, I then waited 30 business days for a response from the bureaus the response was overwhelming that claimed despite evidence of the inaccuracies that this account was certified via the creditor to be reporting accurately and current. I then contacted the company 's regulatory department and was contacted by a company representative named XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Compliance on XX/XX/XXXX she too had assured me that according FCRA they are required to report factual information to the credit agencies only I informed XXXX XXXX that is correct and questioned as to why the payments that I have been making on my loan are not being reported she went on to assured me that CREDIT ACCEPTANCE is reporting up to date payments on the account to the Major credit bureaus, I then explained to her further that I have copies of my credit reports and they are not reporting any of the payments made in the last 90-120 days she then asked if I could produce copies of my credit reports to further understand the error I submitted the copies via email address XXXX XXXX XXXX assured me she would submit this information " credit reporting department '' and reach back out to me regarding this incident. On XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX did reach back out as promised and to my surprise XXXX said " The credit reporting department assured her that they are reporting accurate information along with payment history to the major credit bureaus and that I would again have to dispute the information with the credit bureaus as they have no control over what the credit bureaus report on my credit profile from their company and that they would not be able to reach out to the credit bureaus to correct this error ... ... .convinced that this issue will continue to go on and continue to deface my credit history I wished XXXX a great day and let her know on a recorded line as she informed me that I will be filing a complaint with CFPB observe in the documents also which is a FCRA violation of reporting incorrect information notice the amounts from all three credit bureaus are vastly different I have also attached the proof the the disputes submitted to all three credit bureaus along with the copies of the payments made to the creditor

Ive recently been made aware of consumer law and the violations that have been made against me. As a result of this im LEARNING how to undue all the damage that has been done over the years. One of these companies in violation of TILA and CFPB requirements is CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPERATION. i will attach all files needed. This company has not clearly and inconspicuously made clear to me if the amount was paid at purchase and if not and is to be credited in installments they also have not made it CLEAR the steps for me to take in which they will accept the payment coupon theyve sent to me numerous times along with asking for ADDITIONAL payment. I have tried to work it out with the company with a written notice AND affidavit of truth sent via certified mail. As i use the tracking number on the mail sent i can see that it has not been picked up and has repeatedly been avoided. I am excersing my right to express i see billing errors and want to dispute the amount since they are not being CLEAR to me what the amount is who the creditor is who the lender is when has it been paid and how can i properly endorse the coupon they send to me monthly. Also the company has not sent a statement or any mail since XX/XX/ it is now XX/XX/ at the time of this complaint and although they do not send statements monthly as required, they repeatedly call me asking to pay a debt. The law codes for the violations that have been spotted are found under : 15 USC 1026.10 15 usc 1026.13 ( a ) ( 2 ) 4 and 7 15 USC 1605 determination of finance charge The latter violation is the biggest violation as it leads to other violations on the fals narritive that this has not already been paid for pursuant to 15 usc 1605 And the final violation spotted 15 usc 1666b Constantly reporting late payments. The law codes that describe the fines for violations are found under 15 usc 1681m I understand that the CFPB has a process and a way of handling these complaints and as the consumer that is learning how to handle the violations i ask that you instruct me of any additional information for confirmation or investigation that you need from me. I will gladly cooperate with the CFPB on any information gathering reguarding this complaint. I am aware of the fines for each violation being in between {$100.00} and {$1000.00}, no more no less. And i want the full {$100.00} per violation. I have a statement marked with the billing errors per violation. Resolution of this complaint needed would be the fee for the violations made and the IMMEDIATE correction of the account according to the outcomes of the CFPB investigation. I authorize the CFPB to use their best discretion in determining a resolution with the violations seen AND not seen or expressed.

This is the second complaint made via this website. The first being on XX/XX/2023 after the vehicle was repossessed. Upon going to my parking spot I realized that my vehicle was not there. After several inquiries to the apartment complex where I live, I came to the realization that Credit Acceptance must have had my vehicle repossessed. Upon speaking to a customer representative and a supervisor, they informed me that there was a problem with my automatic payments, and they had not received payments on our agreed payment arrangement for the months of XXXX and XXXX. I informed them that I was not aware of this problem and inquired why they did not send me any notices regarding the default payments via mail as has been the case in the past. The supervisor at the time stated that she was not aware of why that was, but if I wanted my vehicle returned I would have to pay a certain amount of money, or the vehicle would be auctioned. After the first complaint, Credit Acceptance stated that they sent out a notice. They further claimed that the person investigating the complaint was unable to reach me. However, the notices that were sent out were done on the actual date of repossession, XX/XX/2023 and addressed to my former residence. The second notice was sent to my current address on XX/XX/2023 discussing the investigation set forth by Credit Acceptance after I filed the complaint. There was no correspondence presented by the company to demonstrate that they attempted to send me any communication via mail or email regarding default payments or due process of repossession of the vehicle. They failed to mention that I did return the phone call by the person investigating the complaint, and that she stated that she would investigate the matter, and there was no more communication with my person. Considering that Credit Acceptance had not tried to communicate as all businesses/organizations do regarding a missed payment, it is my belief that Credit Acceptance utilized two months of missed payments to justify and make a profit not only on the remaining balance, but also on fees that would be accrued after the vehicle is auctioned. A tactic that I find to be very disingenuous as they promote their company as one of helping those acquire a vehicle when they can not get approved by other loan companies. For a company that prides themselves in helping people get into a vehicle, their lack to communicate caused an unnecessary financial burden. I had to cancel my auto insurance that will most likely increase my rate when I return to the company and get insured again when I get a vehicle. As a result of not having a vehicle, I had to find other means of getting to my destination that caused a financial burden as well.

I am who I am ( the original creditor ) of all things on my consumer file, I am not a credit repair agent nor paid attorney, I am sending this as myself the original creditor of all " alleged '' debts on my consumer file. I have been violated under multiple incidents by these consumer reporting agencies and will be seeking litigation if problem are not rectified immediately. The following rights of mine I believe have been violated and are causing punitive damages to my life as the consumer of the united states. ( Offenses number 1 ) 15 usc 1681 ( a ) ( 3 ) Consumer reporting agencies have " assumed '' a vital role in assembling and evaluating consumer credit and other information on consumers. I never gave XXXX, XXXX, or XXXX ( WRITTEN PERMISSION ) to have this information pertaining to my consumer transactions. Because I never gave this permission I believe this offense also falls under 18 usc 1028 aggravated identity theft ( A ) ( 1 ) ( offense number 2 ) Whoever, during and in relation to any felony violation enumerated in subsection ( c ), knowingly transfers, ( possesses, or uses, without lawful authority ), a means of identification of another person shall, in addition to the punishment provided for such felony, be sentenced to a term of imprisonment of 2 years. ( Offense number 3 ) 15 usc 1681 ( Exclusions ) any authorization or approval of a specific extension of credit directly or indirectly by the issuer of a credit card or similar device. The credit " alleged '' " inquiries " are a private matter and if they are or were factual they are not supposed to be on my consumer file and report. ( offense number 4 ) 15 usc 1692g I also believe is a section regarding validation of debts. Numorius accounts have be disputed and have come back as validated when I ( THE ORIGINAL CREDITOR ) haven't received any type of notice within five days to verify or validate these " alleged debts '' ( I DO NOT VALIDATE NOR VERIFY ANY DEBTS ON MY CONSUMER FILE ). Furthermore under 15 usc 1692g ( c ) The failure of a consumer to dispute the validity of a debt under this section may not be construed by any court as an admission of liability by the consumer. All debts on the public and consumers are already paid for by the united states according to what I believe is 31 us code 3123 The Secretary of the Treasury shall pay interest due or accrued on the public debt. Now im not making threats but under 15 us code 1679g ( civil liablity ) Any person who fails to comply with any provision of this subchapter with respect to any other person shall be liable to such person in an amount equal to the sum of the amounts determined under each of the following paragraphs : actual damages, punitive damages and class action.

On XX/XX/XXXX I went in to XXXX XXXX to purchase a XXXX XXXX from an online advertisement I seen. When I arreived there, an employee advised me that the XXXX XXXX that I was looking for was available but was not currently on the lot because the owner was currently using it as there personal vehicle. Once I heard this, I lost interest! I was then pointed to a XXXX XXXX XXXX, which this certain employee advised me was priced at {$9000.00}. I then said ok I want it! I was then taken inside to a actual dealer named " XXXX ''. XXXX began by asking me how much was I looking to put down? I advied him that I only had {$1000.00}, XXXX then made a face as if to say no. He then said {$2000.00} was the least that I could put down, I then advised XXXX that I did not have that amount of money at that time. XXXX then said ok, do you have {$1500.00}? I said no but I can get it, XXXX then said can you can drive off with this car right now if you can get me that {$1500.00} and then owe me {$500.00}. I told XXXX to give me a second, I then went into my phone and transferred $ XXXXout of my checking account. I then advised XXXX that I had the {$1500.00}, he said ok. He went on the computer for a couple of minutes looking for loan companies to finance the car. After about 5 minutes, XXXX advised that he had found a company name " CREDIT ACCEPTANCE '' to finance the car. XXXX said Credit acceptance would finance the car and my total would be around {$16000.00} and some change ; I agreed. While I was waiting, XXXX advised me to pay attention while he read the contract to me, when he was finished, XXXX motioned me to sign what he had just read to me Electronically. I signed without even thinking because this was my first car and I didn't know the ins and out about anything, so I just singed the papers Electronically, albeit under the impression that the loan agreement was for a total of {$16000.00} and some change. Once the deal was made I drove off of the lot happy thinking that this was a good deal, however, upon reviewing the contract with a family member, I was notified by that family member that my loan was for a total of {$36000.00}!!! And out of that {$36000.00}, XXXX was subtracted from it as a down payment on my part. As I've stated before, I only put {$1500.00} down as a down-payment. So as you can see, I was baffled by this and right away called XXXX XXXX for an explanation??? They gave none, I then called the loan company, and they advised me that it was nothing thry could do because I signed the contract. In conclusion I ask that this matter be looked into because this has cost me financial burdens, and I would like for this to be reversed and I be compensated for the money spent on this egregious loan.

Hi, Thank you for taking the time to read my complaint. First I would like it to be noted that I have already dispute this information with the company and credit reporting agencies directly neither have taken action to correct inaccurate misleading information on my credit report. In XXXX of this year I noticed my auto lender Credit Acceptance paused reporting to the 3 major credit agencies. Upon doing some research it was due Covid-19 in a effort to freeze account statues to limit negative impact to their customers experiencing hardships. However I never requested such a freeze and continued to make my monthly payments on time each month as I always have. The very next month XXXX of this year when they resumed reporting I got an alert on a credit monitoring site my account was 120 days past due. After seeing this I immediately new this inaccurate I've made every payment on time and have the bank records to support this fact. I disputed this information with the company and the credit reporting agencies each verified it as accurate even though I attached my bank statements for the months in question XXXX- XXXX and XXXX showing I made my payments on time. Finally today I decided to reach out to credit acceptance by phone they were no help and said I would have to dispute it again even though they did not corrected the first time. I asked the rep to list all the payment dates of the last year she verified I made every payment on time.. and then proceeds to tell the delinquent payment was from the first month I opened the account back in XX/XX/XXXX? and that that's why I got the late payment in XXXX almost 5 years later. I kindly explained to her if my account was delinquent for 5 years they repo 'd the car and I would have been dinged with 30-60-90-120 late payment status a long time ago which you will see in the attached file my account has reported in good standing from the time I go this lone until the time they decided to pause reporting. You will also see the reporting is inconsistent across all 3 reporting agencies for example one of my reports shows 90 days late the next month 120 days late and then next month back down to 60 days late how is this even possible. How can a account be on time in XXXX and then 120 days past due in XXXX when 120 days have not past between periods. I am requesting they remove these misleading inaccurate late payments as it is causing me great hardship I have already been rejected from one lending opportunity because of this please help me correct this misleading information thank you. I have attached my credit report showing my good history until their reporting error as well as my bank statements showing I made my payments on time every month.

On XX/XX/23, XX/XX/23, XX/XX/23, XX/XX/23, and XX/XX/23, I disputed the completeness and accuracy of this closed account on my consumer credit report and it has come back verified. I do not believe Credit Acceptance properly investigated this account because there are obviously inaccuracies. The date open, date closed, the payment status, and the date of last activity are all reporting different information to XXXX and XXXX. There are clearly quite a few inaccuracies that are being reported to the different credit reporting agencies. My consumer credit report is an indication of the discrepancies. Credit Acceptance was also contacted and still has failed to properly conduct an investigation and correct their errors. Based on 15 usc 1681i paragraph ( 5 ), it states that any information that is disputed by a consumer that is found to be inaccurate or incomplete or can not be verified that the consumer reporting agency shall promptly delete. Therefore, my question is this, clearly I have pointed out several inaccuracies on this one account reporting to the credit reporting agencies, so why havent this account been deleted from my credit report when Credit Acceptance has willfully violated the FCRA? This matter has been brought to Credit Acceptance attention regarding the various inaccuracies on several occasions especially since I have been disputing the accuracy of this account for the past several months which I have a copy of every single letter to prove it along with the letters from the bureaus stating the account has been verified which I cant see how an account has been verified as accurate with so many discrepancies being reported for the same account to different credit reporting agencies. Lets also take into consideration the date of last activity which is also among the several different discrepancies that is being reported from this one account. One bureau is reporting one date and another bureau is reporting a totally different date. This is a manipulation of the statue of limitations since I can not tell when this account is supposed to fall off my consumer credit report. This is a clear indication that the credit reporting agency was provided with different information on one account. This type of inaccuracy is causing me severe stress and is a financial misrepresentation. I am requesting that the account be removed completely from my credit report due to the inaccuracy and violation of my consumer rights under the FCRA .I believe that addressing these issues promptly is crucial to maintaining the integrity of my credit report and ensuring that my financial history is reported accurately. I appreciate your attention to this matter and look forward to a resolution.

In XX/XX/XXXX my bank didn't pay my car loan because my overdraft protection was accidentally removed. I noticed in XX/XX/XXXX that my car payment with Credit Acceptance wasn't taken out I contacted them on XX/XX/XXXX asking about my payment the representative said I had a payment scheduled for XX/XX/XXXX, on XX/XX/XXXX no payment was reflected on my account. I called again on XX/XX/XXXX and was advised again a payment was scheduled for XX/XX/XXXX, no payment was taken out. On XX/XX/XXXX I received a notice from the credit bureau showing my car not was reported as late and my credit score dropped 78 points. I contacted Credit Acceptance again this rep told me I had a payment scheduled to come out on XX/XX/XXXX, I asked was it other ways I could make my payment she said online I checked it would not allow me to log in I called back in and the rep told me I needed to create a new again because they no longer used XXXX XXXX for their payment company. I still wasn't able to make a payment online because the system said I had a payment scheduled in the system. I called back and was advised my account needed to be deactivated to allow me to make a payment online, I made a payment. I still haven't received any correspondence advising me on my loan being past due or that their was an issue with their system. On XX/XX/XXXX I put in a complaint with the better business bureau after calling again to the company and no one could explain why my payments were not being deducted. On XX/XX/XXXX I received a call from a rep in the compliance department who advised me my auto pay was XXXX, she then explained I could make my payment online and explained why the payment did not go through she could not explain why the previous reps did not know this or why they would tell me to check with my bank because my bank was blocking the payments ( which was incorrect ). I received another call from that same compliance rep today XX/XX/XXXX advising me she would place notes on my account but she could not remove the late payment charges on my credit. Because of the miseducation of the reps of Credit Acceptance, I can no longer purchase my house and will be evicted from my home because it is showing my car loan as past due for an error on their part. I can understand XX/XX/XXXX payment issue but going forward that was a issue on the company, I was also told that when I missed a payment before they would change my biweekly payments from {$210.00} to {$230.00} and this would not report my car loan as late but when I spoke to the compliance rep today that was incorrect. I would like the late payment charged removed so that I can get approved for my mortgage as well as get a better company to handle my car loan.

I purchased a XX/XX/XXXX Chevy Silverado XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX in XXXX. I test drove the vehicle and it appeared to be sound. I drove the vehicle to my job location XXXX. Upon arrival the vehicle began hesitating and dying at stop lights. I checked the oil and it was down XXXX quarts. The engine light came on. I topped off the oil and noted the oil light was acting irregular. In XX/XX/XXXX I put my vehicle in the shop. The shop confronted me and said the oil sending unit was bad. It remained in the shop for XXXX week until the repair was made. Later that month I was experiencing the transmission shifting irregular and not changing gears until reaching high rpm. The vehicle died at the stop lights or upon breaking abruptly. I constantly checked the oil and after XXXX mile trips it would use XXXX quart of oil. At the end of XX/XX/XXXX I put the vehicle in the shop for XXXX weeks into XX/XX/XXXX and they replaced a motor mount, oil valve cover gasket, replaced the spark plug wires and spark plugs and the shop did a drip into the pistons claiming the rings were seized. Than seemed to address the oil consumption. I was still having issues with the transmission after XXXX miles dying coming to stop changing gears at high rpm. I drove back to XXXX. and took it to XXXX on the XX/XX/XXXX. On the XX/XX/XXXX they told me that the torque converter was fried. A Superior agent approved a used transmission from a wrecking yard on the XX/XX/XXXX. On the XX/XX/XXXX the truck was picked up. I paid the XXXX deductible.

This company credit acceptance and its predatory lending and finance hidden charges have destroyed me financially and otherwise this company is reporting 35 or more late payments of 90 days on all my reports destroying any possibility of getting another car loan or any other sort of credit products due to the erroneous and I wish I was a lawyer to say illegal tactics brought forth upon me and my family. I have asked this company to delete and update the reporting on my account to reflect accurate information they literally just laugh at me and right away my credit reports get dinged with late payments added instead of deleting them.in all my years I've never seen a company purposely and maliciously add on 30 or more late payments on one 's report its something that I will never forget because it's already a struggle and having this company do the types of things they're doing and the credit reporting agencies actually allowing such mess is another reason why I'm making this report.my balance is as to this company 's calculations XXXX dollars on a vehicle that when I bought it I put XXXX down payment and had a total price of XXXX which this company upped the car price and then added the down payment which if I show you the paperwork is kinda suspect.i bought the vehicle in XX/XX/XXXX and I stopped paying for the vehicle in XXXX of XXXX i did not make another payment until the vehicle was repossessed and i paid XXXX dollars or so to take back then I never paid until I called credit acceptance to come pick up the vehicle as a voluntary surrender they picked up in XX/XX/XXXX when this account was supposed to be closed they finally closed the account in XXXX XXXX.there should be no reporting on this account at all especially a reporting of a balance that's not accurate and not what was the agreed upon price of vehicle and my down payment was disguised as something other in the final paperwork which I have copys of.theyre charging some kind of daily compound interest that no one going thru financial health hardship can overcome.i had a XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX my birthday XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX 1 year before and now almost 2 years later I'm still dealing with this financial nightmare. They say I owe them XXXX dollars however are willing to settle for XXXX dollars. Does that even make sense? They're charging me interest and late payments on a vehicle I haven't had since XX/XX/XXXX please all I'm asking I'll pay you guys XXXX what your asking because that's about what I owe I'll pay please delete this payment history and account off my report after payment that's my resolution I'm going to borrow XXXX XXXX from family to hopefully put this nightmare behind me. I hope this helps

- After four years of owning my beloved XXXX XXXX, it stopped running during a WI winter, I needed a vehicle so I searched online- I found an SUV with a {$5500.00} sticker price - I had {$5000.00} cash on hand, and was willing to pay in full - Dealership declined as I was short {$500.00} and convinced me to accept a deal that required {$1500.00} down payment if car loan was opened. He pitched a guaranteed increase in credit score, price tag would not change, and any malfunctions would be covered if added on Gap insurance and warranty, all because he could not budge on the cash offer - I left that night, he called me back with a better deal desperate for a car I return via XXXX, car seat in tow - He offered to trade my inoperable car for to shave the cost down. - I agreed to the terms and initiated the car loan XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX - During signing it was revealed the true cost would total nearly XXXX. Which, although I was upset about the hidden fees, I could not refuse due to my need to get back and forth to work and my 18 month old to child care - By XX/XX/XXXX, the truck 's engine went out - I went back and forth between warranty holders, credit acceptance and XXXX XXXX regarding coverage for the vehicle 's engine- this was a three month process - Continued to pay in full for 8 months XXXX - XXXX {$480.00} ~ XXXX paid off - In XX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXX I was informed Insurance, nor warranty did not cover the costs of the {$7000.00} job as quoted by XXXX- I then called Credit acceptance and informed them that the cost of the repair exceeded the cost of the vehicle and I would like to use the remainder of my loan to acquire a new vehicle. To which they stated they could not help, but I had to continue to make those payments to settle to XXXX debt. Around this time they quoted and reported to the credit bureaus that it was an {$8500.00} debt ( the amount the loan began with ) - During another phone conversation with CAC in XXXX of XXXX, I informed the supervisor that I wanted to surrender the vehicle, to which they denied me the right. - In XXXX of XXXX, I called CAC to once again come to an agreement. The associate explained there was nothing they could do and I still need to pay every month. I explained to them that I will not continue paying the nearly {$500.00} bill for a vehicle that hasnt worked in months, so it would be best if they just picked it up. - By the end of the month, CAC repossessed the vehicle, closed the account and reported to the credit bureaus an involuntary repossession - After repossession, the vehicle was sold in a local auction - 3 years later, Credit Acceptance is reporting increasing values to credit bureaus, with a balance now exceeding {$9400.00}

I purchased an ( Infiniti FX35 XXXX ) from a car dealer called XXXX located in XXXX, XXXX. During the contract signing, everything was signed digitally on their computer system. After signing the contract, they only gave me the printed copies of the extended warranty 's documents and told me that their printer suddenly developed fault and promised to print and mailed it through XXXX by the following day. During this transaction, I made a down payment of {$4500.00} to the dealer, and the signed contract was supposed to be : Vehicle Price = $ XXXX+ Extended warranty = $ XXXX+ Taxes and others = $ XXXX+ Based on the above break down, the total amount was $ XXXX+,. My monthly payment was {$430.00}, the term of the agreed contract was supposed to be 30 to 36 months. After one month I decided to cancel the extended warranty due to the fact that they refused to fix the car because the car had multiple issues which they did not disclose to me during purchase, all issues came up when I drove the car from XXXX to XXXX in XXXX, the following day I called them up a made a complaint about faults I discovered, they advised me to take the car to a workshop and inform the warranty company, I did just that but the warranty company refused to pay because the cost was up {$2000.00}. After I made up to nine months payment consistently, I decided to call up the company that financed the car by name " Credit Acceptance '' and required to know my balance, at that point they inform me that my outstanding is $ XXXX+, and term of the contract was increased to 60 months as against the 30 months which I signed for. At this point I asked them about how much they did finance the car, they told my $ XXXX+ I asked them why and how did they pay up to $ XXXX+ because I made a down payment of {$4500.00} which supposed bring down the balance to $ XXXX+ before the financing, at that point they told me '' we know nothing about your down payment, call up your car dealer and ask them ''. Both sides have been pushing me around. ( 1 ) I signed for 30 months contract not 60 months. ( 2 ) The dealer tricked me they were going to send the contract documents the following day because printer was faulty, till this time the contract has not been sent to me. ( 3 ) The down payment I made could not be accounted for. Please I really need help, I am still new in this country struggling to meet up. If I should be paying {$430.00} on a monthly basis, meaning I will end up paying {$25000.00} to the lender adding to the {$4500.00} down payment making it {$30000.00}, I did not bargain for this. This car is a XXXX infiniti FX35, with XXXX miles during purchase. Please contact me if you need more information.

Notice of billing error ( 12 CFR 1026.13 ) XX/XX/2022 RE : Account number : XXXX To whom may address my concerns, I have noticed several billing errors in the Truth-in-Lending disclosures section of the " Retail Installment Contract and Security Agreement ''. The first one being the number of payments as well as the amount of payments seems to be inaccurate on the Pavment Schedule, 16 CER 433,1 ( d ) which describes a purchase money loan in regards to the truth in lending disclosure is defined as : " A cash advance which is received in return for a " finance charge '' within the meaning of the truth in lending act and regulation z, which is applied, in whole or substantial part, to purchase of goods or services from a seller who ( XXXX ) refers consumers to the creditor or ( XXXX ) is affiliated with the creditor by common control, contract, or business arrangement. " Under Regulation Z also known as truth in lending the itemization of payments should mirror the finance charge amount as it is " the dollar amount the credit will cost me ''. The next billing error is the " down payment '' on the itemization of the amount financed. In pursuant to 15 U.S.Code 1605, the amount of the finance charge in connection with any consumer credit transaction shall be determined as the sum of all charges, payable directly or indirectly by the person to whom the credit is extended, and imposed directly or indirectly by the creditor as an incident to the extension of credit. The finance charge does not include charges of a type payable in a comparable cash transaction.The {$3000.00} downpayment placed under section " XXXX '' which references gross trade-in ( if negative enter O here and enter the amount on line XXXX ), is in violation of 7 CFR 1436.10/c ) The down payment may not include any trade-in, discount, rebate, credit, deferred payment, post dated check, or promissory note to the supplier or contractor. The next billing error can be seen on the amount of credit provided to me or on my behalf. There is no authorized user other than the appointed attorney-in-fact by the consumer to receive any credits on behalf of the consumer. I am demanding additional clarification including documentary evidence of the procedures used to come up with these itemized amounts in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ( GAAP ). These billing errors may be assumed to be a willfully intent on misleading and or deceiving the consumer of the character/ amount of any debt pursuant to 15 U.S.Code 1692e. All debt obligations and securities are owed to the United States 18 U.S.Code 8 Do NOT hinder nor delay the delivery of the consumer goods associated with the transaction.

In Pursuant to 15 USC 1681a ( 2 ) ( B ) Anything with my credit card which defined in TILA is my SSN should be excluded from my consumer report. This is hurting my lively hood and I cant apply for anything. I am demanding that you remove this account from my consumer report I hereby give your Company notice pursuant to 15 USC 1602 ( k ) that your Company never provided an adequate notice which clearly & conspicuously mentions the pertinent facts of this transaction. Your Company didn't even inform about the Cost of Credit and the only evidence of the indebtedness was just a computer-generated agreement. According to 15 USC 1602 ( k ), the term " adequate notice '' means a printed notice to a cardholder which sets forth the pertinent facts clearly and conspicuously so that a person against whom it is to operate could reasonably be expected to have noticed it and understood its meaning. Such notice may be given to a cardholder by printing the notice on any credit card, or on each periodic statement of account, issued to the cardholder, or by any other means reasonably assuring the receipt thereof by the cardholder. Since adequate notice was not given as per the above-mentioned section, I couldn't understand its meaning which is a violation under 15 USC 1602 ( k ). Further, pursuant to 15 USC 1601 ( a ) a consumer must be aware of the cost of transaction. Since I was not aware of the transaction therefore made an uninformed decision and it resulted in multiple billing errors, and unfair credit card practices. From your end, I have not benefited from this transaction which is again violation of 15 USC 1602 ( p ). According to 15 USC 1602 ( p ), The term " unauthorized use '' means a use of a credit card by a person other than the cardholder who does not have actual, implied or apparent authority for such use and from Which the cardholder receives no benefit. I hereby request you to do the below-mentioned things ; 1. Enter your request here ; Furthermore they used misleading means to attempt to collect an alleged debt, In pursuant to to 15 usc 1692e ( 4 ) The representation or implication that nonpayment of any debt will result in the arrest or imprisonment of any person or the seizure, garnishment, attachment, or sale of any property or wages of any person unless such action is lawful and the debt collector or creditor intends to take such action. This is hurting my lively hood and I cant apply for anything. This has affected my mental space and stressed me beyond measures that it has caused my mental health to get to it's lowest point. I am demanding that the account with XXXX, XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX be deleted from my consumer report

Me and my husband are victims of predatory lending. We financed our XXXX XXXX XXXX back on XX/XX/XXXX through Credit Acceptance a month after our bankruptcy was discharged. Both the dealership XXXX XXXX XXXX and Credit Acceptance were aware of the bankruptcy because we told them plus it was on our credit reports. The price of the vehicle, the condition of the vehicle, Credit Acceptance expert knowledge of knowing statically we would not be able to pay the loan back and loan terms are grounds for predatory lending. The condition of the XXXX was in bad condition with work needed to the car within the first 3 months of buying the vehicle. The vehicle seems to have been in a wreck or flood damage prior to purchasing it. The cost of the loan totaled {$20000.00} for a XXXX XXXX that was in bad condition at the time of sell. Credit Acceptance also knew that my husband job status was per diem ( no guaranteed hours at his place of employment at the time of purchase and that I did not have a job at all other than being a Realtor which had no hours and stricly commission based and that my only transition ever was less than {$5000.00} that year. Our bankruptcy was discharged on XX/XX/XXXX a month before the purchase date. Which was strategically done because we went to the car dealership XXXX XXXX XXXX 2 weeks after the bankruptcy with both Credit Acceptance and XXXX XXXX XXXX knowing we had a bankruptcy 2 weeks prior and they gave us the car to drive home that day and asked us to come back 2 weeks later on XX/XX/XXXX without explaining why. Today we understand that we were victims of deceptive, abusive practices and suffer from predatory lending. Credit Acceptance provided an over priced loan for a car in bad condition to consumers they knew could not afford to pay them back. Predatory lending practices, broadly defined, are the fraudulent, deceptive, and unfair tactics used to dupe us into a car loan that we can't afford. Burdened with high car debt, we are straining just to keep up the monthly payments and Credit Acceptance is unwillingly to forgive debt even though they are experts in the lending industry and knew statistically that we would not be able to make off our car loan. This is unfair and deceptive marketing practices, and we deserve restitution as customers. This is a violation of our rights 15 us code 45c states ( b ) Enforcement by the Federal Trade Commission ( 1 ) Unfair or deceptive acts or practices A violation of subsection ( a ) shall be treated as a violation of a rule defining an unfair or a deceptive act or practice under section XXXX ( a ) ( XXXX ) ( B ) of the Federal Trade Commission Act ( 15 U.S.C. 57a ( a ) ( 1 ) ( B ) ).

In XX/XX/XXXX, I filed Chapter XXXX bankruptcy. As a result, I was allowed to maintain possession of my assets which included a vehicle financed through Credit Acceptance. The payment agreement for the bankruptcy was wage garnishment, but unfortunately I was laid off due to medical reasons and I could no longer maintain the payments so my bankruptcy was dismissed. Shortly thereafter, Credit Acceptance began pursuing me for payments. I explained that the vehicle was broken, it had been towed and I was not able to pay so I offered to voluntarily surrender the vehicle which Credit Acceptance declined so the vehicle remained in tow storage which accumulated more debt. As you can see Credit Acceptance failed to properly report the loan to the three bureaus at the time the loan was acquired in XXXX. It wasnt until XX/XX/XXXX that they began reporting the vehicle as 120 days late, XX/XX/XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX it was reported 90 days, XX/XX/XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX 90 days late and finally in XX/XX/XXXX it was reported as a collection account. The conflicting and erroneous information during this time frame was date of last activity was reported as XX/XX/XXXX to XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX to XXXX. No date was provided to XXXX. However, the opening date was reported as XXXX XX/XX/XXXX to XXXX, but it was reported as XXXX XX/XX/XXXX to XXXX and XXXX. Considering this, I started an investigation disputing inaccurate information begin reported for the account. Neither verification nor validation documents were provided. Instead, the account was permanently removed from XXXX. It was also removed from XXXX and XXXX, but returned a short time later without any form of communication from Credit Acceptance. I continued to dispute the account through XXXX, but I still did not receive any correspondence from Credit Acceptance. Once again, the account was deleted from XXXX and XXXX, but returned this time as a charge off. It is no longer being reported to XXXX. More recently out of nowhere on XXXX XX/XX/XXXX the comments were updated from collection account affected by natural disaster Chapter XXXX bankruptcy dismissed fixed rate to collection account auto Chapter XXXX bankruptcy dismissed fixed rate. This vehicle was never affected in a natural disaster. Additionally, after being contacted by XXXX XXXX in reference to verifying the account as charged off, Credit Acceptance changed the status of the account from Closed, Charge Off, Collection to Open 120 days late XX/XX/XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX. Today my credit report was updated and Credit Acceptance conveniently changed the account again this time only with XXXX to show 90 days late XX/XX/XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX

Hello, Earlier this year I had financed a vehicle at the XXXX XXXX XXXX of XXXX Oklahoma. They did not follow Truth-in-Lending requirements. I asked " can you explain to me how your APR works ''? their response to me was ; " you can probably explain it better than I can ''. Being I wanted my truck back I nodded along. There is also a requirement that I have the mouse in my hand checking boxes in the financial document while the finical officer of the company explains things to me. The credit company that did accept me as a new client to provide financing for me loan was Credit Acceptance Company. I contacted them after I had made 3 monthly on time payments. I was even making mid-term payments. I asked them " can you help me with licensing this vehicle so I do not have dealer tags on it, and can legally drive it around with my full-coverage insurance ''? I then went on to further explain to the person from credit acceptance company I was speaking with the something I explained in the previous paragraph of this complaint. The person on the phone in a low tone apologized to me, and cleared this transaction, and credit look up from ever taken place on my credit history. This is the time I called the dealership XXXX XXXX XXXX of XXXX Oklahoma. The dealership told me they were having troubles locating the title for my vehicle. I played phone tag for about a week. My mother was the previous title holder. Her and I drove to the XXXX XXXX XXXX ( Oklahoma version of DMV ), and we preformed a title exchange there claiming the truck as a gift because there was no money exchanged between her and I. I have a title from the state of Oklahoma that has my name, and my name alone on it. This truck is legally mine now. XXXX XXXX XXXX of XXXX is claiming to have a mechanic 's lien on my vehicle in my dad 's name because he is the person who traded the truck in. How do they have a lien on a vehicle that is in someone else 's name? My conclusion that being the truck is mine, and XXXX XXXX violated consumer protection laws via not explaining all the elements of the loan contract to me. I mentioned that I was interested in finance to the person conversationally, and suddenly they no longer need to explain elements of the contract to me? Being I am poor I would love it if I could receive some kind of assistance to make XXXX XXXX learn that when the form says the client has to check the box ; the client has to check the box. I also feel I should have had some kind of official summons been severed by an officer of the law with a legal document as they occasionally due in their line of work. Thank you for your time and considerations, XXXX XXXX.

Consumer complaint : Credit acceptance has acquired full rights title interest on a vehicle that I've purchased. They're operating fraudulently and they know it. Facts : On or about XX/XX/XXXX I purchased a vehicle from credit acceptance. I've entered into this contract without full disclosure. Credit acceptance knowing and willingly took advantage of me and my consumer credit. I was given false and deceptive information. I was told that a downpayment of { {$1600.00} } was needed in order for me to drive off the lot. Credit acceptance, failed to clearly and conspicuously disclose to me that a Finance charge, WAS the SUM OF ALL CHARGES, and never informed me of my RIGHT to include my insurance into the finance charge. I was never given notices that comes along with consumer credit transactions. I was never informed of my right to rescind either, full disclosure of my right to rescind. 2 ). Transparency regarding the process of the consumer credit transaction/application being the financial asset. 12 CFR 360.6 ( 2 ) as well as self liquidating paper, 17 CFR260.11b, False and deceptive information 15 USC 1692e and 15 USC 1605 and 15 USC 1635 ( a ) and 15 USC 1611 ( 1 ) ( 3 ). Due to the facts of said violations affiant rescinds the contract with Credit acceptance, which was sent via certified mail with return receipt. Credit acceptance is knowingly damaging my reputation thus, has caused me extreme emotional distress and placed me in a state of poverty, fear, and uncertainty of the financing system. I have wanted to buy a home but I am unable due to the negligence of Credit Acceptance and their reporting 's on my consumer report, which I have never given written consent for them to do so. Credit Acceptance has been deceptive in their dealings. Under Law they are required to report any and all indebtedness exceeding {$600.00} and issue a 1099C. On or about 12/11/2022, I contacted the IRS to ensure my 1099C was issued. No such form existed for me. Under U.S Code 26 CFR 1.6050P-1 ( i ) and the reference guide used that describes the detail of the 1099c : A. ( Bankruptcy ) B. ( Other Judicial Debt Relief ) C. ( Statute of Limitation or Expiration of Deficiency ) D. ( Foreclosure Election ) E. ( Debt Relief From Probate or Similar Proceeding ) F. ( By Agreement ) G. ( Decision or Policy to discontinue Collection ) triggered the issuance of a 1099C. Credit acceptance has violated the TILA act and taken advantage of me is an understatement. They have caused great harm and grief to me and taken advantage of the law. Credit Acceptance has also failed to provide the original contract in its entirety.

In XXXX I purchased a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX all white from XXXX dealership located on route XXXX in XXXX New Jersey at the time I was driving over the road because my occupation is XXXX XXXX I seen the car advertisement on XXXX XXXX And the price of the car was {$7000.00} and some change. However, I was told when I called to acquire about the car that they had to do a credit check and when the dealership ran my credit & they said I was good so I only had to put down {$1500.00} to take the car off the lot. Due to the lack of knowledge & the dealership did not fully explain the loan process they tricked me into a loan Process that turnt out to be 3 times more than what the car was worth & the car was a lemon. The Service Department reset the computer on the car to hide the check engine light so I wont see that it was a defect on the car and the radio did not work. three weeks later the engine light came on I reported to the dealership they forward me to the service department they gave me the runaround claim they couldnt get the piece which was the Crank sensor. Then when I go into the service department one of the employees claimed I have no warranty when the dealership told me I had a warranty and then I reported to Credit Acceptance about the extra fee the dealership tried to charge me & the defects on the car and Credit Acceptance did nothing about it. I feel as though Ive been taken advantage of and due to this car loan on my credit report Im not able to get credit cards, Im not able to start my trucking company because the dealership sold me a lemon and they did not fully educate me on the loan process because I would of never bought a XXXX car thats three times more than what its worth it makes no sense. I XXXX XXXX XXXX already paid that car off and I feel as thought I been Robb both ways Pocket and credit wise because I have to pay for them selling me a lemon tricking me into a loan.

XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX Court for granting these garnishments due to illegal documents and illegal repossesion. I have bought all documents that Credit Acceptance submitted to be granted these judgements as well as the transcripts. Where the judge advises me to hirr a lawyer 3 times. This has affected my livelyhood since everything is based on credit. From car loans, personal loans and insurance. I have statements for insurance and XXXX XXXX also my credit union denying me help. And credit statement that states ib have hired XXXX to help dispute and prove this malicious inquires made by XXXX XXXX.

ON XX/XX/XXXX I spoke with a representative from the settlement department of Credit Acceptance about a pay off on an XXXX XXXX XXXX .I am the co -signer on this vehicle for my Grand daughter. Upon the purchase of the vehicle I was sold a warranty incase anything happened to the vehicle I can use it to cover the cost and get discount on services etc. However we were faced with large out of pocket repairs on the vehicle. Every company I went to didn't except the warranty company that was sold to me by credit accepatance as A GARANTEE protection. I will show the recpts where I had an out of pocket expense of {$2400.00} because they didn't except services from this particular company because they have a bad reputation of not paying providers. I reported it to the dealership and I was told to try many different locations and then have it towed there. I noticed this contract was under the truth in lending act and no way should I have ever been in this position and my rights under the truth in lending retail installment contract has been violated. I am XXXX and is living on limited income and I don't deal with Debt. When I had to pay the out of pocket expense the account became delinquent. Credit Acceptance has done nothing to help us regarding the Bogus warranty that was sold to me under the truth and lending act that was attached to the installment agreement. I explained the matter and requested if I can pay {$15.00} as a settlement to pay off this car. They told me the car is {$22.00} and some change and my pay off is {$20.00} and change because they dot settle. also the interest is compounded .I asked about a payment plan however they will give you a payment plan but the interest will keep accruing on the portion that is not being paid which it will keep you almost close to the balance.of the original finance amount. its like you will never pay the car off and you will be paying compounded interest. i was told the warranty i was sold and never was able to be used could be cancelled however i would not get any money back from a warranty that was not accepted anywhere. If they did this to me im sure they doing this to all their customers. They are trapping people in this retail installment agreement and almost forcing unrealistic terms that people are having issues with. Credit acceptance is not taking any of the responsibilty of what they are having the consumers sign. We also never recv 'd a truth in lending seperate paper explaining our rights under the truth in lending act. that was another violation under U.S. CODE 3952 PROTECTION UNDER INSTALLMENT CONTRACTS FOR PIRCHASE OR LEASE.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, TX. XXXX XXXX : Improper Repossession Practices of XXXX XXXX XXXX VIN # Dear Sir/Madam : This is a written statement to notify you of a Violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices. On the afternoon of XX/XX/XXXX ; I was approached by my neighbor while walking from the mailbox located on the street corner. My neighbor ( female ) who resides at XXXX XXXX XXXX ; stated that she was outside in her yard when she noticed a tow truck driver ( XXXX male ) pulled up and was sitting directly in front of my home located at XXXX XXXX XXXX. She stated because he could not visibly see what cars was at my residence ; due to the garage door being closed. He yelled to get her attention and asked information regarding the residents living in my home and if she saw a grey XXXX XXXX. She asked him what business is it to you, and he told her he had a work order to repossess a XXXX XXXX. She told him that was none of her business and continued what she was doing. She told me he began asking other people outside about the car. She noticed after a few minutes went by the tow truck driver pulled off. My neighbor advised told me to please keep my garage door closed. I immediately advised her that I had nothing to hide and will contact the lien holder on Monday. Therefore, on Monday, XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX. ; I called Credit Acceptance Corporation at XXXX and spoke to Mr. XXXX at Extension XXXX. I advised him that some tow truck driver ( XXXX Male ) was asking my neighbors about the XXXX XXXX XXXX and had the audacity to state he was repossessing the car. I informed him how humiliating it made me feel to have my neighbors knowing my personal business. I told him if the driver would have knocked on my door ; I would have given him access to the vehicle. He proceeded to take down my statement and assured me he would escalate my complaint to a supervisor and have the vehicle picked up immediately. Furthermore, Im requesting a full investigation into this unethical business practice of this company. As a result of this unethical violation ; Im seeking to have this improper seizure and debt removed off all credit bureaus and seek damages. The creditor did not notify me in writing and/or by phone of the repossession. I was not notified of this debt and/or repossession until after Credit Acceptance received possession of the vehicle and my letter notifying them of this debt. As of this date, my letter has not been responded to by the creditor. I greatly appreciate your assistance in this matter and look forward to your prompt response. Respectfully, XXXX XXXX

In XXXX, I purchased my first vehicle. A few months after buying the car I had an unexpected job loss and was no longer able to make payments. I contacted the company in attempt to resolve the matter or come to an agreement. I attempted to voluntarily return the vehicle to the company but was misinformed by them, who claimed that voluntary repossession was not an option. Despite this, I willingly returned the car to the company, who then claimed on my credit that it was an involuntary repossession. At the time I did not know my rights and I did not understand that they were making false remarks on my credit. Later that same year, I attempted to contact the company to try and settle the account. Unfortunately, the amount they were willing to settle was outside of what I could afford and I was unable to settle the account at that time. Now, in XX/XX/XXXX I was finally able to contact the company to settle the account. I immediately paid the agreed upon amount the same day I contacted the company. The company assured me over the phone that the account was settled and closed and that this would be reflected on my credit and I would receive a letter in the mail as well. About a week or so later I received the letter in the mail stating the account was settled in full and that the lien was released. In early XX/XX/XXXX my credit score increased, reflecting the paid off debt. Then shortly after this, I received notification that remarks have been changed on my credit indicating that the debt is still owed and that the account with them is not settled which drastically reduced my credit again by XXXX points. I am highly confused by this, as I have the documentation showing the account was settled and I have always done what I could to respectfully communicate with this company and attempt to resolve the matter. I attempted to dispute the remarks with both XXXX and XXXX but they are claiming the company is " verifying '' the information which further shows that after I settled this account the company is still attempting to harm my credit for, seemingly no reason. I do not understand this concept that appears to be common with debt collection agencies to further harm people who have already experienced financial downfalls. Especially when the consumers make all attempts to communicate and resolve matters. This company has been paid and gains no further benefit by changing and adding remarks to my credit to further harm my financial independence. I have attached documentation showing that the company has been changing remarks after the date they were paid.

I met my the. Wife at XXXX XXXX XXXX sales because she asked me if I would co-sign for her to get a car. When I get there the guy basically starts asking me all these questions that seemed normal so I respond but the whole time I never see her doing paperwork or being asked questions. I just figured she would after I did. So he comes over and stands right up against me and starts telling me to sign here and here all while rushing me the whole time. I told him I wanted to read them and his response was it is just standard stuff.. a little bit later he comes back and hands her the keys. We leave and a few days later Im checking my credit and see I have a {$18000.00} dollar auto loan.. come to find out her credit wasnt good enough to even put her on the loan so instead of me just co-signing he put the car 100 % in my name. Thats not something I agreed to do. He may have had me sign a paper or something but he wouldnt give me time to read them plus he lied to me about other things and papers as well. He told me she got a awesome 2 year top of the line warranty that the lender GAVE her but when I started going through all the paperwork to see what happened I saw that they actually charged her, well me, {$2000.00} dollars extra for that great warranty but turns out it was the bottom of the bottom warranty program and the reviews say its basically impossible to use. So theres another lie. So a couple months later her and I split up because Im mad he didnt talk to me or tell me that l was using my credit that I spent the last 2 years working so hard that it cost me my marriage. I got my credit all the way the way up to over XXXX. And just yesterday I saw it dropped in just one moment over XXXX points not to mention now the car has a blown motor because she had issues with it literally from the XXXX day she had the car. But yet that amazing warranty is supposed to cover engine work but I doubt it. So now the car is about to get repossessed and thats going to hurt my credit even worse. I busted my XXXX building up my score because I wanted to buy a house for me and my XXXX kids for when her and i divorce but now I have no idea what Im going to do. I cant afford the rent on a place big enough for us and l am scared. I cant end up without a home.! And yes Im mad at her because I dont understand how she didnt know he was doing this but at the same time he even had me thinking it was in her name. I just want this loan taken off my credit and for them to do whatever it is the have to do to get my credit score back up. I mean this is embarrassing its so low.

To whom it may concern Credit acceptance corporation sued me and are now garnishing my wages for a vehicle that I voluntarily repossessed. The vehicle was purchased from a XXXX dealership that closed down after purchase. The vehicle was a lemon. I had to make repairs and pay car note. It started to take a toll on my lively hood. I couldnt pay rent or purchase groceries after payments. I notified credit acceptance of this. They gave me the option of voluntarily repossession. When they finally picked up the vehicle after a few months. I had an isssue with my license plate. I took a ride to their office. They were rude and XXXX. Referring me to as you XXXX XXXX XXXX. They also ensured me I will get sale of vehicle information in mail. I never received. I kept getting calls by credit acceptance attorneys harassing me. When I would call credit acceptance directly. They told me that those were not their attorneys. However I did have to pay my balance. I recall the balance at that time being over {$18000.00}. The vehicle at that time was a over 12 years lemon. I questioned the amount they told me they will come after me for the amount owed. Fast forward to me answering their judgement at court house. I dont feel I owe the amount due to condition of vehicle, hidden chargers, damaging credit report and harassment. After answering the courts, I got a credit repairer. The credit repairer and I disputed the credit bureaus. I also contacted credit acceptance to negotiate. They told me that they would negotiate with me and I didnt have to go to court. The credit repairer communicated with credit acceptance. The balance kept changing. Credit acceptance responded to credit repairer, however never sent over requested documentation. Credit acceptance kept putting their selves off and on my credit report. Soon after they stop communication. Now a few years later, I am being sued. My employer informed me of the garnishment of wages. Total {$20000.00}. I went to look up credit acceptance Information to contact them. Thats when I found out about the numerous lawsuits against them for the same reasons described above. They just settled a lawsuit for millions. They also been under investigation by attorney general of XXXX Since 2017. This company is a scam. XXXX. High interest rates. Lemon vehicles. They are rude. They harassed me as well. Please help me in this matter. This will cause me to become XXXX by time they finish garnishing my wages for an amount thats unlawful. Can someone please contact me at their earliest convenience. Thank you

Subject : Concerns Regarding Retail Installment Contract as a Negotiable Instrument Dear Credit Acceptance, I am writing to address several concerns related to my retail installment contract, which operates as a negotiable instrument under our agreement. A negotiable instrument is a document guaranteeing payment of a specific amount of money, either on demand or at a set time, and can be transferred from one party to another. When XXXX sold this contract to Credit Acceptance, the contract effectively transformed into a negotiable instrument. This process of 'negotiating ' the contract allowed Credit Acceptance to become the new holder of this instrument. However, I have several concerns about potential violations of the XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) and the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) in the processes and agreements related to this contract. Firstly, I believe there may have been a violation of UCC 1-201 ( 20 ), which requires full and accurate disclosure of contract terms. XXXX, as the original seller, did not provide complete and truthful disclosure of the contract and financial agreement terms. Furthermore, I was unduly coerced into paying a down payment under conditions not uniformly applied to other customers, potentially contravening XXXX XXXX that deals with unconscionable contracts. In regards to XXXX, its key purpose is to ensure the informed use of consumer credit by requiring disclosures about its terms and cost. If full disclosure was not provided, as appears to be the case, this could constitute a breach of XXXX. Moreover, I have experienced issues with Credit Acceptance, including coercive practices related to recurring payments and issues with the enforcement of the arbitration clause. My vehicle was repossessed from my private property without peaceable means, potentially breaching XXXX XXXX which outlines the secured party 's right to take possession after default. Concerningly, if Credit Acceptance is not licensed or registered in any U.S. state, it could potentially be in violation of state-specific financial regulations and licensing requirements, which vary from state to state. Considering these potential breaches and their impact on me, both financially and emotionally, I believe I am entitled to remediation under XXXX and XXXX regulations. I request a thorough investigation into these matters and expect appropriate remedies to be provided. I retain all rights under state and federal law to pursue this matter further if satisfactory resolution is not reached. Best Regards, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

I sent certified correspondence to Credit Acceptance Corp. which they acknowledged receipt of which indicated their violations of the FCRA, specifically 15USC1681 ( a ) ( 2 ) ( B ) " The reporting of this account is a violation of 15 USC 1681a, The Fair Credit Reporting Act [ 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 2 ) ( B ) ] : ( 2 ) EXCLUSIONS.Except as provided in paragraph ( 3 ), the term consumer report does not include ( B ) any authorization or approval of a specific extension of credit directly or indirectly by the issuer of a credit card or similar device ; '' and the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act " I have recently come across information from the Federal trade Commission ( FTC ) more specifically the GrammLeachBliley Act 15 usc 6802 obligations with respect to disclosures of personal information ( a ) NOTICE REQUIREMENTS Except as otherwise provided in this subchapter, a financial institution may not, directly or through any affiliate, disclose to a nonaffiliated third party any nonpublic personal information, unless such financial institution provides or has provided to the consumer a notice that complies with section 6803 of this title.

'' Credit Acceptance Corp dismissed my request indicating in their response that based on their investigation, the information they provided to the credit reporting agencies was complete and accurate and did not require modification, deletion or correction. My correspondence did not request correction of information they furnished but demonstrated they were not authorized to disclose ANY of my private, non=public information. Further, it requested production of the clear and conspicuous disclosures they were required to provide prior to the furnishing of said information along with explanations of how to opt out. They produced no evidence of the investigation they claimed to have done which I never requested in the first place.

My down payment wasn't even taking off the loan I'm going to attach my loan document so you can clearly see that they took {$12000.00} and then they added my down payment if my down payment would have been subtracted off in this loan and I wouldn't have been charged XXXX interest and the XXXX as well as others that I got charged this car would have been paid off this is not right and I know you guys at cfpb know that this isn't that right that's why you guys have an open class action against them and that's why credit Acceptance stock market is declining I already know they paid Massachusetts XXXX XXXX back to customers that they frauded something needs to be done with this company it's not fair that they take advantage of people with low credit and low income that's totally wrong they have no conscience either about what they're doing and that's so unfair as long as their wallet is fat that's all that matters to them and that's wrong because she now I am stuck without a vehicle and I can't get a loan know-how and they're flagging my account constantly they've even ran hard inquiries on my credit report they've even called me on a Sunday when I was having dinner with my family at XXXX in the evening I'm going to contact my phone company and get a printout of the phone calls since the car got repoed they won't even tell me where the car is located unless I make a payment I've got stuff in there that I need back that means a lot to me I really truthfully did not think that they would come and get it because of the year and the motor was gone but I was dead wrong on that

I am an elderly, XXXX woman. I went alone to purchase a used car in XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, VA XXXX phone ( XXXX ) XXXX XXXX works with following company to get loans financed : Credit Acceptance Corporation XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MI XXXX phone ( XXXX ) XXXX XXXX asked ME for {$11000.00} for a XXXX XXXX XXXX, 4-door sedan with odometer reading of 90,818. THIS PRICE WAS NOT ON THE CAR FOR ALL TO SEE. I thought this was high. I asked for the XXXX Report and the salesperson indicated their fax machine was not working. Instead he provided a report titled " Vehicle Compliant with Credit Acceptance Policy '' which indicated there was no damage to the car. I agreed to purchase the car and asked for gap insurance. The salesperson indicated that gap insurance could not be obtained that day if I wanted to drive off in the car. I had financed one other used car which was totalled and the car insurance did not pay off the entire loan so I definitely wanted gap insurance. The salesperson indicated I could obtain gap insurance the next day. I had taken public transportation to the end of the line then gotten in a taxi to get to XXXX XXXX so I signed a document, under duress, indicating I did not want gap insurance. When I called to obtain gap insurance the next day, I was told I should have gotten it the day I purchased the car and could not obtain it. The terms of the loan : Amount financed : {$12000.00}, APR : 23.99 %, No. of payments : 54, Amount of payments : {$380.00} beginning XX/XX/XXXX ; Finance charge : {$8100.00} ; Total of payments : {$20000.00}. The amount financed of {$12000.00} was reached as follows : asking price of car : {$11000.00} + {$760.00} in sales tax - {$1600.00} downpayment = XXXX plus following costs/fees : XXXX extended warranty contract ; {$20.00} fee to release security interest ; {$170.00} fees for certificate of title, license and registration ; {$390.00} seller 's processing fee. When I tried to trade the car in the next year, I was told by a XXXX XXXX dealership salesman that the XXXX XXXX value of the XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX was about {$4000.00}. The XXXX XXXX salesman provided me with a XXXX Report which indicated that the car had been damaged in an accident and there was a recall on the car. I feel that I was grossly over-charged for the car by XXXX XXXX, about THREE TIMES its value, and that Credit Acceptance added insult to injury by charging me 23.99 % which is practically illegal!!!!! I definitely believe the asking price was high because I am elderly and female.

On XX/XX/XXXX I received a call that went to voicemail saying : This is an urgent message intended for my name is XXXX contacting you in regards to a complaint scheduled to be filed out of XXXX XXXX if you will not be available receive and sign for documents or if you are unaware of anything pending, it is urgent that you contact us back, at XXXX with reference number, requires immediate attention or we will be forced to move forward without her participation. I called back and they said they are calling on behalf of a creditor for a previous car loan back in XXXX. Saying I owe {$6400.00} I ask them for what vehicle because I did not have a vehicle solely in my name for 12 plus years and since been divorced from my ex husband. They said they will not give me the year make and model of he vehicle so I can be sure that the account or money owed is actually my debt and to get this information I would have to subpoena them for validation of debt and by that time I would already be sued by them and they will add an addition {$1500.00} in court because they rather get extra money than to give me all the info over the phone to prove to me that the debt belongs to me. I am unfamiliar with any of this information they provided. They claim they sent a letter I never received and now they are forced to move forward with suing me. I asked them for some type of documentation to understand what was going on but they only agreed to send me and email with a document. I asked them how long I have to respond and they gave me 48 hrs. I received the email but there is no address. I called back to get the address and the address they gave me doesn't contain any information regarding their name XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I tried to reverse lookup the number and im only getting a website saying other people were called with the same issue by this number. Also, when I called the number there is no name or anything just a generic the person you have called is unavailable please leave a message. I called back and then got a guy who wouldn't tell me what all this was about. I call back again Then I got a girl named XXXX XXXX who says she has an assistant named XXXX XXXX who sent me the email. I voiced I was concerned that this was a scam and that I would like to make sure that the debt belongs to me. And she said the email was all they could send, and only when I'm sued and summoned to court will I get all of the information regarding the debt. Also Im concerned because I live in XXXX and any debts I have is only from my previous residency in XXXX.

This complaint is about a company called credit acceptance I begin a loan with them back in XX/XX/XXXX and paid faithfully up until present time. However on XX/XX/XXXX I was in a car accident which was a total loss. I called the credit acceptance people and asked if I could Not pay the XX/XX/XXXX payment since they would be receiving a insurance payout they said that was fine. However now they claim that they did not say that. On XX/XX/XXXX we entered into an agreement for the remaining balance of the vehicle which is about {$6300.00} we agreed that I would pay {$300.00} on the first of each month going forward until the loan was paid off. they also said that if anytime during this time if I came up with {$2500.00} they would except that as a one time payment and clear the loan. The first {$300.00} payment was made on XX/XX/XXXX I have the canceled check the second {$300.00} payment was a little late but the check was cashed on the XXXX XXXX. It was around this time that I noticed they had reported me XXXX and 60 days late on my credit report for XXXX and XXXX. I contacted them and asked why they did this and they told me that I had missed a payment in XXXX but I told them that they told me I could skip that payment since they were getting insurance payout and that they had agreed to that, they informed me at this time that they have no record of that. So I got a written letter from them stating that my payment was {$300.00} and would be {$300.00} going forward however they would not agree to backdate it to the original date we reached the agreement of XX/XX/XXXX they would only date it for XX/XX/XXXX Just another example of them being shady. When I asked them to please fix my credit reporting they said to me thats not their job. I submitted disputes to all three credit agencies but nothing has ever came of it. Credit acceptance just tells themThats the information they have and my dispute is dead. They are the worst professional company I have ever dealt with. They act as if I made all this up after not having one missed payment in 2 and a half years. I also want to point out they where illegally charging me XXXX XXXX interest as a resident of XXXX when you can only charge someone XXXX XXXX above prime for used car loans in XXXX. I also want to point out that they have a website where you can look at your account information. I went on there and it says A bunch of inaccuracies. When I asked them about it they told me dont worry the website is always wrong. They still have the wrong payment amount on their as well.

I opened a loan agreement with Credit Acceptance on XX/XX/XXXX. After the first few months I was not able to make payments on the vehicle. I reached out to the co-signer and asked him if he wanted to take over the vehicle. He stated to me that he was not able to make the payments on the vehicle and didnt want to take it over. I struggled with the payments and the upkeep of the vehicle due to Covid. On XX/XX/XXXX the vehicle was involved in a accident. The vehicle was taken to XXXX XXXX in XXXX Michigan on XX/XX/XXXX. I took the vehicle there because of a recommendation. The insurance policy on the vehicle had lapsed and so there was no coverage at the time of the accident. I did a voluntary repossession of the vehicle with Credit Acceptance on or sometime after XX/XX/XXXX. I called Credit Acceptance in XXXX to see if they had retrieved the vehicle and I was told that it was still at XXXX XXXX in XXXX Michigan. At that time I was told that the vehicle would be picked up by the Redemption Department within 7 days. I received a letter from Credit Acceptance dated XX/XX/XXXX stating that the vehicle had been repossessed. The following week I received another letter from Credit Acceptance dated XX/XX/XXXX stating that the vehicle would be sold at private sale sometime after XX/XX/XXXX. I recently started receiving calls from Credit Acceptance stating that there was a balance on the vehicle of {$8500.00}. I informed the representative of the letters I received and she said that the co-signer had possession of the vehicle. I called back after speaking with the co-signer and getting confirmation that he didnt have possession of the vehicle and didnt make any payments on the vehicle. I called Credit Acceptance back today and I was told by another representative that the vehicle was still at XXXX XXXX and that Credit Acceptance would retrieve the vehicle within 7-10 days and be back in contact with me. Today XX/XX/XXXX I tried calling XXXX XXXX from my phone and was told that the number was no longer in service. However, I called from a different phone and the call was answered promptly. After holding on the line I was told by someone name XXXX that the vehicle was still at XXXX XXXX. The vehicle has been in repossession for 7 months now and Credit Acceptance has not been in contact with me XX/XX/XXXX which was a written notice to sell property. However, now they are calling about a balance stating that the co-signer has the vehicle in his possession whoever XXXX XXXX confirmed that the vehicle is on there property.

XX/XX/XXXX Re : Credit Acceptance Violations of FCRA, Usuary and Truth in Lending Laws To Whom It May Concern : I am writing regarding my Auto Loan Account with Credit Acceptance Corporation. This lender has violated the Truth in Lending, Usuary Laws and has been reporting inaccurately on my account that displays on my credit report which violates FCRA Regulations. I financed a XXXX XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. The initial balance financed was {$23000.00}. The current balance now as of XX/XX/XXXX is {$22000.00}. Next month will be a year since Ive been paying on the loan and my total balance has only been reduced by {$1200.00}. For starters, Credit Acceptance has violated XXXX Usuary Laws by charging me over 16 % in interest for this loan. My rate is at 19.99 % annum. This is predatory lending. They gave me an option to make payments bi-monthly on the XXXX of each month and the XXXX of each month based on when I got paid when I signed the contract but still continue to charge me late fees each month after the XXXX of the month. Why set up this arrangement if late fees will be incurred. Even though, I have made several full payments within 30 days, they report my account 30-60 days late because of late fees. This lender does not look out for the best interest of the customer. Furthermore, 12 CFR Part 1026 - Truth in Lending ( Regulation Z ) has been violated which states in Subpart C : ( 3 ) Subpart C relates to closed-end credit. It contains rules on disclosures, treatment of credit balances, annual percentage rate calculations, rescission requirements, and advertising. Credit Acceptance is telling me that my current pay-off is good through XX/XX/XXXX is {$22000.00} but is not fully disclosing how they came to this pay-off amount based on the payments Ive made for almost a year. This is a violation of Regulation Z pertaining to installment loans and closed-end credit. I called Credit Acceptance on XX/XX/XXXX after receiving a payment history statement. The representative assured that everything was correct and there were no violations. I noticed that my initial balance on the statement had been {$39000.00}. This is the total balance I would pay after 66 months but I am being charged the full interest and priciple combined. I am requesting that my account be reviewed and that this situation be rectified within 30-days according to FCRA regulations. I have attached, a payment history and my initial contract for this vehicle. Respectfully, XXXX XXXX Cc : Credit Acceptance Corporation

In XXXX of 2020, my husband and I went to XXXX XXXX in XXXX, CA to purchase a vehicle for my husband so that he could work and also have a safe vehicle to transport our brand new baby. He is self-employed as a painter and needed a truck that could fit his work needs, but also be safe for our daughter. I expressed to the owner of the dealership that I knew our credit was less than stellar, but that I had excellent income and we had willing co-signers. They had one vehicle that matched our needs. Through a long day of supposedly checking the all the creditors they commonly used, and making it seem they were working very hard to get us approved, they eventually offered us a very high interest rate loan with my father in law ( who has perfect credit and excellent income ) as the primary and myself ( excellent income, poor credit ) as the co-signer. We felt due to the pressure put on us to accept this loan that this was the absolute only way we would get a vehicle ( which we desperately needed- my husbands current truck could not hold a car seat. ) So we accepted. We found out after the fact that the ONLY loan agency she had contacted was Credit Acceptance Corporation and that this womans father was the loan officer. In hindsight, we are realizing that we were taken for a metaphorical ride, because she knew how badly we needed this vehicle. There is no reason with someone as credit worthy as my father in law being the primary on the loan that we should have the exorbitant interest that we have tacked onto this truck. We are paying a new truck payment on a 12 year old truck. We were also told that we HAD to buy gap coverage through them in order to get the loan. We expressed that our plan would be to refinance the loan to get a better interest rate in the future when our credit improved, and despite the owner of the auto dealership knowing we couldnt refinance a truck that was more than ten years old, she said oh thats a good idea. Now we are stuck with a terrible loan we cant refinance. At the end of the day, we did sign the paperwork, but we feel that we were absolutely lied to, taken advantage of and that these loan practices where the auto dealership finances with a lender who is an immediate family member can not be ethical. The amount of money we have paid in interest on this loan sickens me, and we are now in a place, despite making all the very large payments on time, that the truck is worth less than we owe on it. We are frustrated and feel this shouldnt be allowed to happen.

I am writing to file a formal complaint against Credit Acceptance regarding their unethical practices, specifically related to bullying, improper use of my credit report, and hidden fees associated with my car loan. I believe that these actions are in violation of consumer protection laws and regulations. I entered into a car loan agreement with Credit Acceptance on XX/XX/year>. Since then, I have experienced numerous instances of bullying and harassment from their representatives. They have resorted to aggressive and intimidating tactics, including constant phone calls, threats, and abusive language. This behavior has caused significant distress and anxiety, affecting my overall well-being. Additionally, I have discovered hidden fees associated with my car loan that were not disclosed to me during the loan application process. These undisclosed fees have resulted in unexpected financial burdens and have significantly impacted my ability to meet my financial obligations. The balance that is being shown on the credit report is very different from what I am looking at when I sign in the credit acceptance app. Im paying for this car two times the amount that I see the advertised price for. The internet price was XXXX. When Im checking after that time I realize I was tricked into being a failure.. Upon checking my recent credit report I see many inaccuracies and I disputed them 3-4 times with the credit bureau XXXX Each time they all came back verified and accurate. I ask for reinvestigation in another dispute and I get the same result. So now Im thinking no one is actually doing anything. Because my report has these errors. I been making a weekly payment and my balance never change each month on my credit report. I also disputed this and it came back the same while Im making these payments. I now regret getting this car and feel manipulated into a trap of messing up my credit worthiness. I have attempted to resolve these issues by contacting Credit Acceptance directly, but their response has been unsatisfactory. They have been uncooperative, dismissive of my concerns, and have failed to provide any reasonable solutions or explanations. I kindly request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau thoroughly investigate my complaint against Credit Acceptance. I believe their actions are not only unethical but also in violation of consumer protection laws, including the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ).

XXXX XXXX a subsidiary of Credit Acceptance Corp sold me a lemon XX/XX/XXXX. The car started to smell of gasoline 3 days after purchase so I went back and tried to return or exchange the vehicle. At that point I was presented with numerous documents that wasnt presented to me at all during signing saying that I had bought the car as-is with no warranty. I went to the Indiana Attorney General who sent a letter saying that because I bought the car as-is I was stuck with it. They added on a mandatory service contract for an additional {$1400.00} to my purchase price. I reached out to the warranty company several times and never got an answer leading me to believe they were just as fraudulent as the dealer. So I went through a 3 year cycle of paying for numerous repairs on a XXXX old vehicle. This resulted in delayed payments. In XXXX of XXXX the transmission went out and I had to pay to replace it. I immediately reached out to Credit Acceptance and let them know what was going on. I asked for a deferment or payment plan numerous times only to be told to pay a minimum of {$20.00} to offset the collections calls. Which wasnt true because they would still call me a minimum of 3 times a day regardless. It took me over 3 months to pay off the repairs. When I got the car out of the shop I let them know and they came and repossessed it 3 days later. A few weeks ago I started receiving mail from bankruptcy lawyers telling me aCredit acceptance was suing me for over {$5000.00}, which I can not afford and would push me into bankruptcy. Ive been working on my credit since the repossession and dont feel that its fair that they were able to misrepresent the terms and conditions of the contract without having to face accountability. The amount of money that Ive paid in car notes and repairs exceeds the actual cash value of the vehicle and the deficiency is a result of them inflating the price with add-ons and a over zealous interest rate thats over the indianas usury cap. I feel that them suing me and 90 other Indiana citizens in the month of XXXX alone is a huge indication that they make more revenue off of setting us up to fail. If they successfully sue all of us thatll be {$610000.00} in their pocket. Meanwhile XXXX people that trusted them enough to do business are in financial ruin. I have all of my initial paperwork which blatantly shows their predatory practices. However Im afraid that the state of Indiana is going to side with Credit Acceptance Corp as though they did no wrong.

In XXXX of XXXX I contacted Credit Acceptance and ask for them to send my all my documents concerning information reporting on my credit. Also in XXXX of XXXX I received copies of electronic of documents I didnt sign at all. I called credit acceptance and told them on XX/XX/XXXX that there is a forged signature on the documents that in fact the signature on the documents was copied from another paper that was signed. I was told that I would have to wait 3 days to hear back from them. On XX/XX/XXXX I received a called and was told to give my signature to them through an email so they could do an investigation. I sent over all my documents and informed them that the signature on the alleged documents on file was forged I said it is mines but I didnt sign it. Someone placed my name on the documents. I told them that none of my signature are the same at all in for two signature to be identical leads me to believe that it was forged. They said they will run an investigation and it could take a long time. No later than 15 to 20 mins I was told that the investigation was done and that they cant prove that this is false. I asked them how did they come up with the determination. They told me because none of my signature are consistent and because nobody signature is consistent thats how they came up with the decision. I told them well do you guys have a signature expert they tell me no they dont. To take it further I spoke to a higher manager who told me because I have one peace of evidence that it doesnt require a investigation and do I know what this would look like on there end. She also asked me why did I take so long to say something seeing I had this contract from XXXX. I told her I just so happen to see it once the information was sent to me by them I explained more to the lady that if she looks at the paper and evidence I sent she can see that two signature are identical. That none of my signature are the same and she said she not going to investigate any claim just because of one piece of evidence. They lady say I was paying on a vehicle for a whole year before they took it. This whole account was done in a fraudulent way the dealership is no longer open and is permanently closed at that. The dealership placed in fact that I put down {$3500.00} when I only gave them {$200.00}. This issues with credit acceptance has been ongoing. Before the vehicle was repossessed they told me to make a payment Ive made one then they repo the vehicle right after the payment was made.

For many years my husband and I have struggled with our credit - we lost our house in XXXX due to an outrageous ARM loan, moved a couple of times before getting settled, lost a job, etc. -- all while raising XXXX children. When the oldest wanted a vehicle of her own to drivXXXX, which would help me out with the other XXXX kids, we went to a small lot and purchased a two year old vehicle with some cosmetic damage, but it was perfect for her first car. Credit Acceptance Corp was the only company who would finance me, alone, for that car. After paying {$1500.00} down and agreeing to {$400.00} a month car payments, we took possession. Ten months later, the dang thing has been repossessed three times. They were taking the payments every two weeks after the first repossession, and then I lost my job and the payment was returned one time. They kept trying every day to take that from my checking account, and it caused a " decline '' fee each time. Once I realized it, I contacted them to tell them to please stop trying and I 'd pay a different way. I made a payment, but apparently, that did n't catch me up because although biweekly payments were resumed for several months, at an amount they indicated was to cover the repo fees, they came and snatched the car again from my driveway. Once I realized it, I called them and they said it would be {$850.00} to recover it ( AGAIN ). They said I could pay {$250.00} by XXXX XXXX and the balance by XXXX XXXX, but would also owe the payments that would have come due over the time period they had it. Then I had to go through a nightmare with the repo company ( which are not regulated in NC ) just to get personal belongings back. They informed me the car has already gone " to auction '' so what is the point of me trying to get it back? After reading hundreds of complaints on the internet, I realize I am not alone. Although there have been numerous class action lawsuits filed against these folks, I would n't be able to afford to pursue such action. So now I am without that car and from what I read, I 'll have to file for bankruptcy just to get rid of these people because consumers are reporting that they are vicious in every aspect of the car loan industry. Someone needs to investigate and help the consumers who are only trying to get out of their situation. It is bad enough to have to pay almost 30 % interest on a XXXX used car, but their collection practices are out of control. I feel completely frustrated and violated.

WITHOUT PREJUDICE Before any financial institution reports any of my information there are proper conditions and procedures that first MUST be met by law before they do any reporting. Any contract I had with Credit Acceptance XXXX is now Null and Void due to the facts they failed to provide the following disclosures during the initial communication, and failed to explain how I can exercise my rights as the consumer to opt out of the unfair reporting and collection activities. I know I am entitled to the right to privacy which means I have the RIGHT to opt out of any of my information being reported to any and all non affiliated third party agencies, due to the fact every financial institution has the obligation to respect the privacy of it's customers and to protect the security and the confidentiality of those customers non personal public information. Also, to protect from unauthorized access or use of such records or information which could result in harm, or inconvenience to any customer. ( This includes primarily XXXX, XXXX & XXXX, plus all the other consumer reporting agencies collecting my information ) Now, this is NOT an option given by Congress under the Privacy Obligation Policy 15 usc 6801 & 15 usc 6802 b ( a, b, & c ). Here are the violations that have caused me to suffer unfair and inaccurate reporting on my consumer reports/files. Violation 1. 15 usc 6802 B ( a ) clearly and conspicuously disclose to the consumer in writing that they are going to report any information. Violation 2. 15 usc 6802 B ( b ) the consumer must be given disclosure that there is opportunity before the reporting begins to not have that information reported. Violation 3. 15 usc 6802 B ( c ) the consumer must be given an explanation on how to exercise the right to the non disclosure option. I have contacted them sending letters about these grave errors and other unfair collection activities demanding they cease collection attempts, meanwhile nothing has been peacefully resolved as they continue to violate my consumer rights and fail to acknowledge my written consent to stop furnishing inaccurate information that is not permissible. I know that if they have any reason to believe that any information being reported is not accurate, they must Delete and Block any further reporting pursuant 15 usc 1692g ( c ) and that they also must have my consent in writing to report or delete anything ( 15 usc 1681b ( a 2 ) and I only gave them permission to cease.

A few weeks a go, a friend of mine went into victory XXXX located in the XXXX, NY to purchase a car @ XXXX. He needed a co-signer for the car in which he was told that the car will cost him {$530.00} per month. And he will pay biweekly for XXXX mths and then his co-signer would drop off. I agreed to co-sign. XXXX hours later they came back with a paper for both of us to sign. They took us in the darkest room, and we asked about the lighting and they said we are packed tonight. So they they asked us to sign. My friend XXXX XXXX asked why is my co-signer signing first and they replied this is how it goes now, everything is good. We asked for a copy of the contract and they replied you have to come back for that when the bank is open. XXXX was given the vehicle XXXX hours later. We we back days later asked for the contract and they didnt have it. XXXX noticed that the vehicle had some issues tired, dent, wipers, and some other things he went back to have repaired and they still refused the contract. One to Two weeks later I received several letters from credit acceptance stating that I am a owner of a vehicle. I quickly called and conversed with the representative at credit acceptance and explained to them the scenario. They advised me to take the car back and we did. Custody refused to take the car back. They said credit acceptance was closed. I called credit acceptance and kept them on the phone did ring the whole entire visit to victory XXXX. Please refer to the recorded phone call. The representative asked the guy who was portraying to be the manger to give his name and he have a faulty name. He continued to change his name during the whole entire visit. He said that they were not allowed to give XXXX a contract, they couldnt provide him one because it was a paper file, they didnt use computers, they didnt have a return policy, they did not have a return policy posted, they refused to give me a copy of a return policy, they refused to let me speak to anyone with authority, and they threaten to have me put out if I didnt leave. And they said the bank put me first on the loan not them. They said the bank told them not to take the vehicle back. They also said the bank made all the mistake and decisions. I am asking you to void the contract. I am not employed. XXXX can not afford the bill. They lied to him about the payment amount. They placed a vehicle that I do not have chess too in my name, which is perjury. They refused his a contract.

On XX/XX/2023, I entered a consumer credit transaction, not a loan with Credit Acceptance. I entered a consumer credit transaction agreement without transparency regarding the process of the consumer credit application being a financial asset. I now know that my signature is what created the security. According to the Federal Reserve Act Section 16 Part 1 and 2. The application was deposited into the Federal Reserve Bank for the dollar amount of the consumer credit transaction. I am the holder in due course and the XXXX. This is what makes this a fraudulent transaction. Credit Acceptance was already paid when they deposited my credit application into the Federal Reserve Bank. Now they are reporting a balance on my credit report as a debt. How can I owe a balance when they have already paid for the transaction. Credit Acceptance knowingly and willingly entered into a false and deceptive consumer credit transaction with me. the consumer. Credit Acceptance accessed my ( XXXX ) Treasury Account, only to make it appear as though they were loaning me money ( application ) and charge me interest. There was never any money given to me in this transaction. Credit Acceptance was also asked to show where they loaned me physical cash from their own assets and as stated earlier, they never responded to the debt validation/notice of dispute request. This entire transaction is fraudulent and misleading. Although I wish to resolve this matter amicably, I am prepared to seek compensation for damages for Defamation of Character, Securities Fraud, Trust Fraud, Fraud, Embezzlement and RICO. Credit Acceptance also violated numerous TILA and FDCP laws regarding fraud and my consumer rights. I know that I have a right to ask for debt validation according to Federal Law. Credit Acceptance has ignored all requests thus far. I also asked them for a copy of the actual contract with my wet ink signature and they mailed me a picture of the electronic signature agreement. I mailed Credit Acceptance a Debt Validation letter requesting a financial ledger regarding this fraudulent account and they mailed me a 1 page document called ACCOUNT NOTICE, still attempting to collect on this fraudulent alleged debt. I also intend to reach out to the IRS for an audit and an investigation of Credit Acceptance financial business practices. As of the time of the filing of this complaint, Credit Acceptance has not reached out to me to try to come to some type of resolution.

In XXXX I purchased a car at a reputable dealership in NY and was offered the Credit Acceptance XXXX XXXX loan. I was a newly divorced, single mom with not much credit and in need of a car. I was mislead to believe this was an honest loan company, but they have been predatory and changed the terms of the loan I signed up for, and have been fraudulent with me multiple times. I have paid every month, however, during the pandemic when income was dangerously low, the company said they are offering loan holders a payment hiatus with no penalties until things improved in our country 's workforce. Even though I was told by Credit Acceptance that I could resume payments at a later date, I still paid {$200.00} per month ( original monthly amount was {$500.00} ). After the pandemic crisis, my balance went up astronomically, and I was saddled with enormous late payments, interest and hidden fees. They also reported those months as late payments to the credit bureau and my account is listed as in delinquency. This was fraudulent and has severely impacted my credit score rating. I am in an enormous amount of debt now with this loan. The loanbalance is almost the same as when I bought the car, and even though I pay auto-debit {$500.00} per month every month, on time, they continue to charge me with monthly late fees and say they wont take the late fee or delinquent status off my credit report unless I pay {$11000.00} immediately. I have been paying the agreed {$500.00} per month for many, many months now! When I told customer service recently that my pandemic arrangement never included information about going into delinquency, they denied it. They flat-out lied. Customer service seemed more than happy to work with me in the height of the pandemic, and I was always on top of communicating with them ( and how could I not -- they called me multiple times a day, bordering the. fine line of harassment ). Meanwhile, I am afraid this old car will die before I can sell it. The worth of the car is now MUCH lower than the loan balance. My credit is suffering. Before I set up my auto-debit, I was 1 day late with my payment and they repossessed my car twice. I feel imprisoned by this scam company with no way out. I am a single mom who works very hard and pays all my bills on time. I am trying to build my credit and future for my child and this terrible company is ruining any chances I could ever have to purchase a home or another car or get ahead.

I was shocked when I reviewed my credit report this week and I found multiple inaccuracies on my credit report from the 3 major credit bureaus from a collection company that I never have dealt with before. I've attempted several times to ratify the issue with the original creditors and credit bureaus and they still reporting inaccurate, unverifiable information. I have disputed this item with the credit reporting agency and they reported you confirmed the account as valid. I honestly do not believe to ever have any relationship with this collection agency or original creditor. Also there are several inaccuracies with this account the way it's reporting and that's a total violation of FCRA and FDCPA laws and regulations. In a good faith effort to resolve the matter amicably, I must demand proof of this debt, specifically the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature, as well as proof of your authority in this matter. Absent such proof, you must correct any erroneous reports of this past debt as mine. I am writing to request that you please provide the following information : 1. Please evidence your authorization under 15 USC 1692 ( e ) and 15 USC 1692 ( f ) in this alleged matter. 2. What is your authorization of law for your collection of information? 3. What is your authorization of law for your collection of this alleged debt? 4. Please evidence your authorization to do business or operate in this state. 5. Please evidence proof of the alleged debt, including the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature. 6. Please provide a complete account history, including any charges added for collection activity. You have 30 days upon receipt of this letter to provide strict proof of contract. In the event you can not provide strict proof of contract, you must cease and desist any and all collection efforts and immediately remove any derogatory information reported to the consumer reporting agencies. In addition, you will need to provide me your agreement, in writing, that you are closing your file, ceasing collecting activity, and deleting all information related to this reference number from any and all credit reports youve furnished the information to. In the event you transfer this account to an attorney without providing proof of contract, and proving your claim, he/she will be immediate reported to the America Bar Association and Professional Liability Fund for code of ethics violations.

XX/XX/XXXX I began a loan with Credit Acceptance, at that time i had a stable job and was able to afford the payments which were {$280.00} a month, I was paid bi-weekly, which made my payments {$140.00} every two weeks, I then began a new job that paid more so at times I was able to pay extra.Fast forward to XXXX, I found out I was expecting and through out that time I experienced some complications that prevented me to be able to work at that time. XXXX rolled around, after welcoming my new addition I was the sole caregiver and still was not able to work payments were made when I was able to. XXXX I still was not able to work, I did not end up going back to work until XX/XX/XXXX, It was a part time job just to get through my first year of college I did make payments when I was able to. In In XXXX of XXXX, My family and I went on vacation XXXX and XXXX minutes away, with that being said my son who wasn't even two at the time was with me, how this place knew where I was located at this time I have no idea.The morning of XX/XX/XXXX I woke up to go get something out of my car only to find out my car was nowhere in sight, my first thought was my car had been stolen, no it was repossessed so I automatically called said company the lady I spoke to told me that there was no order on my car. And i asked how in the world I was supposed to get home from where I was long story short I had to pay {$900.00} and some change to get my car backXXXX XXXX XXXX, I finally secured a good decent paying job as it has allowed me to be able to set up auto-payments with said company. Even when I make payments they still call me to make payments when it automatically comes out of my bank account every other friday. I also recently tried to trade my car in my paperwork I currently have it states that if i wanted to sale or trade in my car i had to have their permission I called and was told I do not have to have their permission that it was up to the dealer if they wanted to buy it.I was then told that my payoff was {$3100.00} one day and then i called back a different day and was told i only owed {$2900.00} they are also saying that Im 120 days late with payments which i am not i have been making payments when I asked about that i was told i was 586 days behind on payments dating back to XXXX which I find that not to be fair when i have been making payments and almost have the car paid off. My payments now are {$190.00} every two weeks.

My husband and I opened a car loan for a XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. In XX/XX/XXXX we had the car repossessed for being a month and a half behind. My husband had been having health problems and returning to his old job was not an option. We paid the amount to get the car back and made a payment arrangement with them. They offered the car at {$570.00} a month and we were agreeable. Unfortunately the first payment was to be made two weeks later and we could n't do it until 6 days later, somehow we were not able to get them to do a payment arrangement and we owed all this money up front. They accepted the {$470.00} every month on the XXXX and we finally got a payment arrangement on the XX/XX/XXXX for {$470.00} that day and a {$100.00} two weeks later and we would start paying {$570.00} on the XXXX and then continue with {$100.00} every two weeks after the main payment date. We have held up our part and yesterday the XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX I am having threatening calls of repossession after we already agreed on XX/XX/XXXX for payment arrangements. I checked my credit report and on both XXXX and XXXX I am current on the payments with {$0.00} behind. Credit Acceptance will not allow me to access my account online nor will they tell me why I owe {$840.00}. I have asked for them to send me a statement or an account summary 4 times now and I have yet to receive ONE. We have spent a ton of money on this vehicle and somehow we are told we owe different amounts each time I talk to a representative. It is {$370.00} or {$470.00} or {$840.00}. They NEVER tell me what I owe for but if I do n't pay today they will repossess my car. Forgive me for the angry rant, but this is really really bad for my husband 's health which he is on the XXXX list. We are both trying to make this work and each time we work something out, they call me with repossession threatening phone call. The last payment arrangement I asked for them to email me an arrangement document, they said they do n't do that. My husband told me they would n't honor it because they have yet to honor any agreement we have made. I paid on the XXXX the {$100.00}, two weeks after I made the {$470.00}. It was on the XXXX we started getting these threatening calls without being able to tell me why I owe so much. They wo n't send me anything like they have n't the 4 times I have asked. This company has crooked practices. I will NEVER EVER get another car loan through them.

Credit acceptance used predatory loan practices and I believe it was due to my race, inexperience, and age at the time of purchase. To start the the loan interest on the contract was not what I told it would be at the time of purchase, I was told that I would have a 13 % interest based on my credit at the time. Once I got the contract the interest rate was much higher at 22.99 %, I couldnt believe what I was seeing. After a week in the vehicle, I tried to return the car to the dealership and was told I couldnt return the car because they couldnt verify my mothers address. She had purchased her vehicle from them as well, they lied. After trying to do voluntary repossession, I learned that I had 60 days to return to return the vehicle but that option was taken from me by the dealership XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have been trying to get the company Credit Acceptance to get the car but they have said multiple reasons why they can not, we dont have the phone number of the company, I provided the phone number ; we need the address, I provided the address ; we might consider getting the vehicle if the company calls us, I asked the tow truck company owner to call them, he did. After jumping through their hoops, I was emailed a payoff request for {$22000.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. The vehicle was repossessed in XXXX of XXXX, I borrowed from my grandmother to get it and the paper on the car said inoperable. Why would you ask for {$22000.00} for a car that you said has no value? I have not received notice of lower payment options or any information about the voluntary repossession. This process has been stressful and horrible since I started it on XX/XX/XXXX. During the COVID 19 pandemic, I was unemployed and told them I could not afford the payments and would have to return the car, they said not to worry they were offering lower payment arrangements and no late fees, this was also a lie. I just want this five year battle to end but they have been sending me in circles for years and it is affecting my life, renting places to live has been made difficult by their credit reporting and the option to try to rebuild and move forward seems like a pipe dream. If this helps one person avoid falling into their traps, I would be grateful. I was XXXX years old at the time and I am XXXX years old now and I wouldnt want anyone to have to deal with this for years to come like me. Be cautious and avoid them at all costs.

In XXXX 2018 I was financed through Credit Acceptance Corp of Michigan. I was low income and had a very low credit score. I'm not even sure how I managed to get the loan. Not even 3 months into the car loan I lost my job and couldn't pay the car insurance on the car. I lost my job because I was jailed for fighting and it cost me my job. I couldn't pay the insurance and the car was then stolen and totalled in a high speed chase with police. The car was flipped and it was a total loss. I sent credit acceptance the police report but they did not bother to care. They charged me 22.99 % interest on the loan and the state of Louisiana only allows up to 12 maybe 14 %. They took advantage of me me knowing I was low income and would be so excited about just getting a car. I paid {$3500.00} down payment for the car and the total amount was still {$12000.00} after the down payment which now I know is insane. They charged me for extra insurance that I knew nothing about that would have been voluntary. NOw that the car is totaled they are crushing my XXXX XXXX and continuing to add more and more to the loan which is now at over {$16000.00} and counting. I've tried to dispute it over and over again and they won't make any changes. The criminals who stole the car still have not went to trial. I now owe a tow company thousands and XXXX for a wifi box that was in the car. The loss of my job cost me my home as well so I had the car packed down with personal items that were a total loss because of the theft. Credit Acceptance knowingly ripped me off with the contract. They knew I was low income and they could take advantage of me and they are still taking advantage of me 2 years later with my credit report and the amount owed. The car was stolen and totaled in a chase with police and the criminal has still not went to trial. I am paying the ultimate price for others taking advantage of me. I do not know what to do. I can not afford an attorney and I called legal aid and they don't have any openings for me to even tell them about my story until XXXX. Credit Acceptance has wronged me and I know they did thousands of others because I read about the cases and they still have many other suits in action. I'm asking that someone please help me and stop these people from taking advantage of others. I am still walking because my credit score is trashed. I am a single mother and low income. This is insane.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I went to : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Texas XXXX I was not allowed to see any of the cars except the car that was sold to me, a XXXX XXXX XXXX. I had requested buying a car that the payment would be under $ XXXXmonthly because I am on a fixed income. I was told that I could afford that car which was $ XXXXmonthly and that was the car they sold to me. The finance person, XXXX XXXX, became angry when I asked how much the finance charge would be. and the payments. He didn't want to be interrupted while having me sign the paperwork. Two days later I tried to return the car because of the high monthly payment, the high interest rate, and the car started having mechanical problems the 2nd day I had the car. The manager, XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) told me I could not return the car 2 days after buying it, because it was a binding contract. I had gone to an outside XXXX certified mechanic shop on day 3 when the steering wheel started shaking and vibrating on day 2 of ownership. I paid {$60.00} for a diagnostic test and XXXX XXXX gave me an immediate list of things needing repairs and totaling {$3100.00}. XXXX XXXX said I bought the car as is and said " She wasn't going to step on the toes of her mechanics '' who gave their clean bill of record on the mechanics of the car. I found out later that they have a 30 day policy to fix needed repairs during the 1st 30 days of ownership. They hid this information from me. The only thing on the list that they repaired was grinding down or resurfacing the brake rotors. I just found out last week in XXXX, XXXX, one year later, that the first 2 years of payments go 100 % to interest, nothing to principal. So, I paid them approximately {$6000.00} in interest this past year on a finance of $ XXXX.If I pay them another year, I will have paid them {$12000.00} in interest on a XXXX finance. That's almost 100 % profit for them in 2 years, not to mention, the existing remaining 42 payments.I found this out when I went back to hopefully sell the car back to them last week. When I went in to discuss them buying back the car, they devalued the car from over {$15000.00} a year ago, to {$7500.00} this year, XX/XX/XXXX. I told them the XXXX value was either over valued last year when I bought the car, or the current XXXX value was way under value. The subject was changed and I left without selling the car back.

On XX/XX/XXXX this account was paid in full and lien released to XXXX XXXX and reported/updated to all three credit bureaus on XXXX XXXX, stating this account was paid in full and closed. The car I purchased had an acceleration defect in which the dealer I purchased the car from, after several attempts was unable to fix the issue ; I made a compliant to XXXX, who decided to repurchase the car under the California Lemon Law. Under this law it states that if a car is bought back by the dealer or it's manufacturer, all money paid toward the car ( down payment, car notes, repairs, car rentals etc. ) is to be refunded minus the mileage usage. I received a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX as proof of the account being paid in full and closed and lien released by Credit Acceptance, as well as the breakdown of all monies received to pay off the car and what i would receive as a refund. After a couple months Credit Acceptance reopened the account and reported that I owed XXXX, followed by another XXXX a couple of months after that totaling XXXX showing that I owe on all three credit reports. These are the two car payments that were due to be refund to me from the repurchase of the car. I do not owe this money and have disputed this inaccurate information with the credit bureaus numerous times and the company keeps reporting back that they have certified that the information is accurate and for the account to remain on my report as is. So I decided to dispute this account directly to XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and uploaded all the proof to verified this account was indeed paid in full/closed per the letter from Credit Acceptance. I received results today, XX/XX/XXXX stating the account status remains the same as me owing, and that the company sent certification again that this information was accurate. I asked XXXX numerous times to send me the certified information to me so I can review it and the representative named XXXX at XXXX, stated that I would have to subpoena that information if i wanted it. XXXX has not been cooperative and they still insist on not changing the status of this account although I sent them the proof they requested. XXXX is basically taking the word of Credit Acceptance because they are being paid by that company to report this inaccuracy on my credit report. I am tired of the back and forth with both the company and XXXX. I need help from another agency now.

On XX/XX/2023 financed a XXXX XXXX XXXX with Credit Acceptance Corporation ( CAC ). The XXXX XXXX XXXX was purchased from Impressive auto sales in XXXX, PA. Spoke to salesman XXXX on XXXX asked price of car and was advised it cost {$8900.00}. XXXX asked me if I liked the car and to submit loan application on impressive auto sales website. Later in the day XXXX informed me that I am approved for the loan. XXXX asked me how much down payment I am able to put down. Advised XXXX I can put {$1500.00} down payment and would be in the next day to test drive car. On XX/XX/2023 test drove XXXX XXXX and agreed to move forward. I asked XXXX again how much the car cost and he said it cost {$10000.00} because I am financing the car. I informed XXXX that the car is advertised for {$8900.00} and when I spoke to him on the phone and informed him I would be financing car, the price did not change. XXXX then said my monthly payments are {$280.00} for 66 months. I asked XXXX what the out the door price is and he would not tell me. I informed XXXX my XXXX score is XXXX and I dont know how he got to the monthly payment amount. XXXX refused to show me any documentation only to mention that in order to do the deal I have to get a warranty that is included in the loan for {$1600.00}. I needed a car to get back and forth because there is no public transportation to take me to work and back home. I really feel taken advantage off and ripped off. I paid the {$1500.00} down payment with the warranty included, which I did not want. The total amount financed is XXXX and monthly payment of {$280.00}. I called CAC on XXXX and canceled the auto warranty issued by XXXX XXXX. CAC deducted {$1600.00} of my loan and left an unpaid balance of {$10000.00} with monthly payment of {$280.00}. If is not fair the I still have the same monthly payment of {$280.00} when CAC deducted {$1600.00} when I cancel the contract. Moreover, I deserve a lower finance rate because my XXXX score was XXXX. Its amazing that CAC never provided my XXXX score to me before loan was issued. With loan balance of {$10000.00} on XXXX my monthly payment would be {$240.00} for 66 months with interest rate of 18.99 %. How it is now pay on balance of XXXX on XXXX, my monthly payments are still {$280.00} for 66 months with interest rate of 25.68 % which is illegal in Pennsylvania.

My husband and I financed a car with Credit Acceptance Corp and we believe that we were lead into a misleading loan. We are paying 22.99 % percent, {$390.00} a month for a used XXXX XXXX XXXX that at the time had XXXX miles. When we brought it at the dealership we remember it saying {$9900.00}. We put down {$1000.00} and we still have to pay {$390.00} for 51 payments. After reading complaint after complaint regarding Credit Acceptance from its consumers as well as seeing that they have been sued by Mississippi and had to pay for their deceptive practices and also with New York Attorney General and CFPB for misleading consumers into loans they could not afford by practicing churning and deceptive loans. We also believe that we were wronged. Our loan is 51 months, and the interest has made the car over {$4600.00} dollars more than the value of the car {$4400.00}. We have already paid {$11000.00} which is more than the cost of the price on the car {$9900.00}. We feel misled putting down {$1000.00} still having to pay {$20000.00} for 51 payments. And how a car that is {$4400.00} blue book value ended up being financed with a total cost {$21000.00} and We are stuck with this loan for a long time. I always thought this loan was confusing and complex with contracts hidden inside of the contract with a financed charge for each contract XXXX XXXX which is a warranty contract for {$1600.00} with a term of 24 months and XXXX XXXX {$1100.00} for 51 months are two contracts hidden within a contract which makes this a complex contract that can not be understood by the common consumer. It took us years to understand our contract along and we still dont fully understand it but we know we have been misled. But it seems like my Loan has barely gone down even we have paid {$11000.00} almost 3 times the actual value of the car. I reached out to the New York Attorneys office who is currently suing Credit Acceptance Corporation along with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. I have complained several times without a real resolution and fear that Credit Acceptance Corporation will not really investigate our case but just throw out what we are saying just like they have dismissed us in the past. We would like someone else to reevaluate this loan. Credit Acceptance Corporation has destroyed our credit and we are currently unable to get a home for our family because of it.

Originally XX/XX/XXXX I was supposed to co-sign for a car loan, XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, NJ XXXX deceived me into signing a contract in my name as full owner. Loan Contract started XX/XX/XXXX with Credit Acceptance Corporation, the next day I tried to call into the customer service to rescind the contract and was told yes only if the auto lot would agree. They disagreed even though I had been complaining that the car was already giving trouble, reported as electrical issues, I tried to file it as a lemon. Fast forward the driver which was the real owner of the vehicle who had been making all the payments to credit acceptance through her bank account contacts Credit acceptance about payment arrangements due to loss of employment. Finally one representative called me XXXX asking for a payment I explained although car was signed by me I was not the physical owner XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and had no way of making payments. Covid 19 comes in and payments are put on hold due to pandemic, the arrangements that was made with the driver at the time were then rescinded. I reached out to Credit acceptance asking that payment history be emailed or mailed to me ( XXXX XXXX ) and was never received accurate information. Never contacted via mail or phone call and then Repossession of vehicle around XX/XX/XXXX took place. after a vehicle is in the possession of a finance company, there are at least two notices required ; The initial notice is a Notice of Resale Date was never sent. Per my Credit acceptance contractGetting the Vehicle Back After Repossession. If We repossess the Vehicle, You have the right to pay to get it back ( redeem ) at any time before We sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of any or all of the Vehicle in its present condition or following any commercially reasonable preparation or processing. XXXX balance reported {$7300.00} to {$7500.00} XXXX balance went from {$11000.00} decreasing to {$6800.00}. Under section entitled 9 A ten percent ( 10 % ) penalty per month shall be added to a refund that is not paid or credited within forty-five ( 45 ) days after return of the service contract to the provider. Now credit acceptance is adding late fees and every month reporting inaccurate balances that I owe, without contacting me about the balance that was owed after the resale of the vehicle that was not in a condition to be sold.

I purchased a vehicle XX/XX/2019 with a monthly payment of about {$650.00}. A few months in I have called for a deferment because I lost my job at the time. Unfortunately I didn't keep names or dates, but it was a fairly simple call the person had me on hold to take notes and said your payments are deferred. A couple of months later I checked my credit and saw it was not being reported until the summer. Then I saw late payments on my account and when I called I was told they don't offer deferments and that my car was in a repo status. I had to make payment plans of over XXXX a month include multiple late fees and though at the time I just started a new job I could not afford the payments. They tried to even put me on a payment Plan XXXX, and when I made these payments, credit acceptance kept putting me late every month because I could not make up for the balance of prior months. The payment needed to be paid in full or I would not get an on time payment I contacted my local XXXX XXXX XXXX and was lucky enough to refinance and was told I can dispute those late payments and I have tried by sending bank statements, I've tried with XXXX XXXX XXXX, and XXXX. I remember a phone call I had with someone at corporate and they told me sorry for the misinformation but there is nothing I can do for you. There are 8 late payments at over 120 days reported, this doesn't represent me as a creditor. I have a current car loan, no late payments and a car loan prior to Credit acceptance no late payments. They dont allow customers to listen to the recorded calls, They dont allow late payments removal though other companies do especially when they understand if the customer usually pays on time and the car was refinance paid in full. This has affected my life in such an negative way. Not being able to get the apartment or credit card or even a new car on my own. I was paying XXXX for a car that was purchased for a bout XXXX more than double I was paying. I also purchased the care XX/XX/2019 and made the first payments at the XXXX but on the statement it says its started XX/XX/2019. I emailed the CEO and he sent me to a department that works this. And you cant called them, they call you. I know there is a law suit against them I wasn't to take them off my report. This is abuse they took advantage of people that needed help. I lost my job because I didn't have a car.

In XXXX 2015, I obtained an auto loan through Credit Acceptance for a XXXX XXXX XXXX with 69,999 mileage the asking price for the vehicle was XXXX with gap insurance included bringing the total to XXXX approximately. At the time I was deciding between two other companies for better priced vehicles with different financing terms. I was constantly contacted by the dealer through text/phones various times of the evenings to obtain the vehicle. Needless to say, I went for the deal, because I believed that the dealership had my best interest and offered me a connection with better finance company according to the dealership. At the time I was n't making much money, related to my return from a medical leave for 3 months prior. However, the loan was pushed through, and I was told by the dealer that no matter what I could and would be approved. Later on I realized why ; the finance company required a GPS device to be placed on the vehicle which was discussed after i signed the agreements and paid the down payment. If that was made known to me prior to signing, I would 've declined the offer and went to the other dealerships. I experienced much hardship with Credit Acceptance my vehicle was repossessed twice for only being 3 days late, and I had to pay the note plus an additional {$1500.00} in repossession fees, each time not included the 50-100 $ storage for belongings taken out of the vehicle. This was very humiliating and as a XXXX XXXX, I was not willing to accept this. I reached out to the finance company directly several times only to hear different explanations for the reasoning behind the excessive fees with the payment arrangements and/or repossession terms. I asked for a pay off amount and was told that the pay off was {$36000.00}! That is nearly double the price of the vehicle, and I asked for a break down of my loan and terms, the company declined to provide it to me, and one agent even said, what did I think? I knew the loan was for {$680.00} per month for 66 months! I would like people to be aware of predatory lenders such as credit acceptance, and I am looking towards filing litigation towards this company in relation to their actions which have caused me much anguish and hardship. I am a XXXX survivor and a divorced mother of XXXX small children who depend on me and I refuse to allow a company to deceive or manipulate me with these tactics.

In XXXX of XXXX, our car that we had financed through Credit Acceptance Corporation was involuntarily repossessed because of a bank error causing our payment to be one day late. They placed the car in a claiming lot that would charge us {$500.00} to get it out, after the payment was made. We could not afford to do that so we let the car go. A few months later we did receive an official letter from CAC stating the car had been auctioned and that we owed {$8700.00}. We contacted the number on the paper. We do not have the paper still and made arrangements to begin paying the debt in the amount of {$100.00} a month. We continued paying through XXXX of XXXX, when we became aware that CAC was not reporting the payments to the credit bureaus. We had never been able to obtain a letter stating how much remained of our debt even though we requested it at each payment over the phone. My husband made several attempts to speak to a CAC representative about our account but no one could provide us with any information. He was finally able to connect with a manager in the collections department who found out our account had been closed at some point without our being notified. When we asked what had been happened to our payments she had to investigate. It took over a week and she informed my husband when he called that the money was sitting technically in this closed account in limbo. The remaining balance of {$7600.00} never fluctuated after our first year of payments began. The money sitting in limbo was never applied. She ( the manager ) told us another account had been opened for us but was being closed due to inactivity. We had never been informed about the account. This manager also told us that we would likely see a check with that money being returned within 6 months. We never received the money. She stated to my husband that she could not send him anything in writing as she was not allowed. The account showed as closed soon after XX/XX/XXXX and we had no activity on it until XX/XX/XXXX, when CAC suddenly posted on our credit report that we had missed a payment that month. We are not disputing that money was owed. We are disputing that the account was suddenly opened to report a late payment in XXXX and that the money we had been paying, which we had never been able to find out how much that was, was never applied to the account or returned to us.

We test-drove a used vehicle from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) in XXXX XXXX, VA on XX/XX/2023. We liked the car, and made a deal based upon a written guarantee that the dealer would replace the infotainment system. We put {$4000.00} down in cash. We had told them, up front, that we could buy it for cash. Their loan " officer '' drew up a contract, but failed to even ask us if we wanted a : loan, " Service Contract '' ( {$2500.00} ) nor did he discuss : Loan terms, loan rates or length of the loan. He quickly ran us through the details of the Buyer 's Order and asked us to sign, etc. Later that same evening, we examined the contract and realized that this company is one of those infamous used car dealers who thrive on exorbitant loans and quickly repossess the vehicle ( s ) as soon as ONE payment is missed, so that they can sell it to the next suckers. Over and over. I had texted the general manager of the dealership : XXXX XXXX, on both numbers : XXXX and XXXX that night. I had already looked the CFPB up and told XXXX XXXX the deal was off unless he cancelled the loan from Consumer Acceptance Corporation " XXXX ''. Primarily, because XXXX XXXX ( loan agent ) did not ASK us if we even wanted a loan, much less a warranty, plus the details above. He agreed to cancel the loan, and later told me that he had called XXXX and that they would send him papers acknowledging that the loan was cancelled. We have not received any proof that this has actually been done. We returned to the dealer, with {$5000.00} CASH, on XX/XX/2023 and bought the car, and drove it home. Bill of CASH Sale in hand. Today, XX/XX/2023, I found a XXXX for the first payment to XXXX in the mail. See attached. I immediately called XXXX today, and spoke with " XXXX '', and I offered to send her a scan of the CASH Buyer 's Order, but she ( XXXX XXXX said that would not be necessary. She checked with their Verification Dept. who stated no request had been made by XXXX XXXX or anyone else at XXXX XXXX XXXX. I then called XXXX XXXX XXXX again ) and he assured me ( again ) that he would call XXXX, etc. I have not heard from him since and sent him an e-mail with my concerns. He has not responded to that either. I researched Consumer Acceptance Corporation and their " Service Contract '' " company '' and found nothing but complaints about both from many consumers.

HelloMy name is XXXX XXXX and I purchased a XXXX XXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX, XXXX this past XXXX. When I purchased the car I put {$600.00} down and I was financed by Credit Acceptance which is located in XXXX, XXXX. I agreed to pay {$250.00} every month and I gave them XXXX references with all there contact information. I recently had a family emergency and I had to fly to XXXX, I was only there for XXXX days and when I came back I received a call from XXXX XXXX telling me to come to his office because my license plates arrived. This was about XXXX weeks ago and he put my plates on himself but a XXXX later my car was repoed without warning! I never received a phone call or an email neither have any of my references that I left for them. When I called them they told me that the automatic payment system they put me on was blocked by my prepaid card? I normally call to make my payments anyways but with all that I had going on I really wish I would have received a phone call or warning before it was repoed. Now when I called Credit Acceptance they told me my car was moved to XXXX, XXXX which is about XXXX miles away from where I live. After trying to make sense of everything with them over the phone it was obvious that I am dealing with greedy morally incorrect XXXX who did n't care about my issue. However they did tell me if I paid the repo fee and my week behind payment I could pick my car up today in XXXX. After paying them a total of {$540.00} the lady then told me my car was not in XXXX, XXXX but it was moved to XXXX, XXXX! I have been pushed around enough and lied to I am an XXXX Veteran and to be treated like this is very disrespectful and hurtful! My neighbors all saw the man repo my car and saw me try to reason with him because I thought it was a mistake! I am very embarrassed about the whole situation and I just want my car back so I can get to work. According to them I can pick up my car Monday in XXXX, XXXX, I will be taking a train and walking the rest of the way hopefully they will be honest about XXXX thing through this whole ordeal. I am not sure if there are any laws against what they have done if not I would just like the world to know how heartless they are and how they treated this Veteran! My phone number is XXXX, my email address is XXXXXXXXXXXX, Credit Acceptance 's number is XXXX. Thank you for you time!

XX/XX/2022, To whom Can Help Me It Would Be Appreciated, On XX/XX/XXXX of XXXX I send certified letters to all three credit bureaus updating my personal information and asking that all incorrect information and inquiries be removed from my credit reports ; according to FCRA, Section 611 ( a ) ( 6 ) and ( 7 ) for a second time. There has not been any corrected or deleted inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable information within 30 days of receiving notice of my dispute. My report should not show I owe {$14000.00} due to loss from a natural disaster as stated by the annual report records and by the company itself with a date stamp. Also, the accounts for all the bureaus read closed with the date stamp on my report. It's reporting a debt as charged-off which was settled or paid in full due to loss from a natural disaster and listing me as a debtor on an account when I was only the authorized user. Since reaching out to the company my accounts have been reporting old debts as new or re-aged to show activity which can also be found on all three bureaus ' sites. I have started to receive calls from agencies attempting to collect multiple times a day. I have not heard from either of the credit bureaus by mail, email, or certified letter mentioning or confirming my updated information and it has been well over the stated 30-day window of verification. I have been working on my report since XXXX and attempting to contact you to have my information updated. In the previous months before sending my letters. I called the companies and signed up for their website as stated by their agents from calling for help. They cited this as " the only way to get the help I needed ''. That was a lie! It was a way to get money from me to pay them without being able to even see my credit report, let alone dispute fraud incorrect information to have removed. I am asking for this incorrect information, and inquiries to be removed. I am also asking to notify every CRA involved that I disputed the debt, submit corrected information to the CRA subsequent to investigating my dispute, refrain from continuing to submit the information that it knows ( or should know ) is incorrect, and inform me of the results within five business days. It has been 90 days which is past the lawful window of verification. I do not consent to XXXX or any means of automated verification.

The reason for this letter in dispute of the operating practices, misleading information and fraudulent activity bestowed on me by the Credit Acceptance Corporation. To wit : At or near the beginning of this Pandemic, I contacted this company via telephone, and was informed by a manager, ( named XXXX ) that due to the current crisis they would defer any actions against their clients as it relates to making payments at that time. I was told that " If '' I was able to make even a partial payment to do so. If not they would defer until the crisis was over. I contacted them again in XXXX, to make arrangements to bring my account current, because I had been unable to make my payment ( s ) during the Pandemic. At this time they requested that I pay them {$6400.00} on or before XX/XX/2021. ( See Enclosed Agreement Letter ). I was promised by them that if I was able to make this extremely large payment, my account would be brought current and my account would be in very good standing. I paid them the entire amount that they requested, by the day they requested. XXXX XX/XX/2021 Bill from company. Cleary states " NO PAST DUE AMOUNT ' After doing so and thinking that I had done everything they requested of me. I was appalled upon review of my credit to find that even though they told me. 1. That they would defer the payments until after the Pandemic. 2. That my account was in good standing. 3. There would be no penalties for not making payments during the crisis. THEY STILL REPORTED MY PAYMENTS 60, 90, 120 DAYS LATE. Totally contrary to what they told me or what expected from them. In closing I would request that this company do right by their customers. They should not be able to, on one hand state you dont have to make payments and then penalize a customer for doing exactly that. Then finally when they requested over {$6000.00} I paid it to keep myself and my credit in good standing. But this payment did neither. This company and their praticies should be sanctioned in some manner for misleading and subsequently penalizing their customers for doing exactly what they agreed to allow. And they need to correct " All ' misinformation supplied by them to the different credit reporting agencies.. Please Advise.. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX Sent from XXXX Mail on XXXX

CREDIT ACCEPTANCE : WAITED UNTIL 87 % of the loan was paid to repossess the vehicle the loan was for due to delinquency, the same day I had made a payment, without a phone call or even an email to ask for more first. They just sent the truck over, causing much more to be paid and not towards the loan. This is a scam. This company reported increased annually in profits. I can see why with this kind business practice. Credit Acceptance annual revenue for XXXX was $ XXXX, a 11.18 % increase from XXXX Credit Acceptance annual revenue for XXXX was $ XXXX, a 12.11 % increase from XXXX. I was delinquent with a loan via Credit Acceptance due the covid-19 related issues. I made a {$70.00} payment today XX/XX/XXXX to start getting things moving in the right direction for the month. Approx. 2 hours later a tow truck came and loaded up the car, I talked to them and they said they can wait while I call the loaners since there was a payment just a few hours ago. The Credit Acceptance representative advised with a payment for an ADDITIONAL {$330.00} he could stop but it had to be now, over the phone. I wasn't able to immediately and the removed the vehicle. I got off the phone and called the bank to move money over and called back to make the payment. This time another representative advised a new total of {$650.00} was due today or they would sell the car for the remaining loan balance of approx. {$2000.00} ( after paying them for several years on a {$16000.00} loan ) After explaining to Credit Acceptance rep that I just made a partial payment for XXXX and when my next pay date was they told me they would wait until Friday XX/XX/XXXX to sell the property for balance unless the {$650.00} was paid in full. I ended the call and was advised by another party this is probably not correct from them and called back and got another representative that advised that given the {$400.00} already paid today that WILL be against the {$650.00} leaving {$250.00} remaining, I paid this amount to process the release to the local tow company. Now the XXXX XXXX XXXX hasn't sent to release in 1 hour and 5 minutes and after speaking with them twice, being advised it takes 5 minutes twice, and they assured me they sent it, twice. I am doubting I can get my car back today for work tomorrow at this rate since the local tow company will likely close at some point.

I called in to get a payment arrangement set up on my account and spoke to a representative by the name of XXXX. He was extremely rude and very hostile during the entire conversation. He kept asking questions like why I was n't able to make my payment on time, that when I signed up for the loan I agreed to make the payment on time, etc. I explained to him that I paid majority of the car note and that the automated system gave me until XX/XX/XXXX, that I needed until XX/XX/XXXX which was my pay day to make the payment because I did n't want to fail the payment arrangement. All I needed was 3 days more, the rep became even more rude and began talking to me in an inappropriate manner stating I should n't need the additional time and that I need to keep the arrangement or see if I can get the money from someone. I asked to speak to a manager because he was being rude and he stated he was a senior rep. He stated I have a sub-prime loan and that his company already took a risk at giving me a loan so I need to make my payments as agreed. I began to raise my voice and get out of character with him because I could n't believe he was actually talking to me as if I was a nobody and the money came out his pocket. I 've had my vehicle since XX/XX/XXXX and this was my first payment arrangement, I have never been late on my car payment. Every time I call this place, the reps are nasty and talk to you like you are trash. I asked to speak to management after dancing with him verbally for a few minutes and they gave me the extra days without a problem. I can never get what I need resolved without constantly enduring the lack of customer service from the rude, condescending, very judgmental collections representatives that work for Credit Acceptance. They act like they hate their jobs and the money is coming directly out of their paychecks to finance the customers they have to service. They call you constantly with their automated dialers and they will harass your references as well. Then when you call then to ask then to stop with all the calls, they will have the nastiest attitude. We already know when our payments are due, we do n't need calls 10 times a day and we do n't need our references to be harassed as well. I do n't need my references in my business and knowing when my payments are due. Especially dealing with the reps nasty attitude.

I have been attempting to resolve my credit concerns since XX/XX/XXXX and it is now XX/XX/XXXX. The car was repossessed, but redeemed in XX/XX/XXXX, and I continue to pay the regular car payment of {$430.00}, plus {$140.00} per month in order to repay the past due amount on the XXXX of every month since I redeemed the car. The account continues to report as closed and in repossession, with no payment history of funds received being reported to all three major credit reporting agencies. I have a loan for a XXXX XXXX XXXX with this company, and they are reporting to my credit report incorrectly. I have attempted multiple calls to this company and was outright lied to by two of their agents just to get me off of their line. They stated their credit team handles these requests and they would transfer me to their voicemail for a return call, but each time they transferred me, I was not able to leave a voicemail, the recording just continued to loop. TWICE THEY DID THIS! The third agent I spoke with actually held the line and let me leave a voicemail to their credit reporting team, but little good it did as I did not get a return call. She also gave me a confirmation number that she stated was from XX/XX/XXXX where they submitted an electronic update to the credit reporting agencies, which I later learned from another agent, was just an internal number they used for their cases, not an AUD to the credit reporting agencies. I was advised that they sent me credit reporting documents in the mail, I HAVE NOT RECEIVED THEM! I called back the following week and was told by a 4th agent that their credit reporting team does not even call customers, and she was not sure why they told me that, well I know why, it is because I was demanding they do their job and FIX MY CREDIT! They have made several violations under FCRA regarding the reporting of inaccurate information to my credit profile! It should not be so hard for a DEBT COLLECTION COMPANY to follow the FEDERAL LAWS established for instances such as these. It is not a closed account, nor is it in repossession, because I DRIVE IT DAILY! If it is closed, and repossessed, then why am I paying them????? It took them one week to report it as repossessed, and if I miss a payment, they call relentlessly bordering on harassment, so why do I have to harass them to just do the RIGHT THING!?

I FILE AND EARLIER COMPLAIN ON THIS ISSUE AND THE ISSUE HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED. ON XX/XX/XXXX MY CAR LOAN WAS PAID OFF AFTER I TRADE MY XXXX XXXX XXXX IN FOR A DIFFERENT CAR.. I WAS INFORMED FROM A REPRESENTIVE THAT MY BALANCE ON THE ACCOUNT IS XXXX AND PAID IN FULL. I SPOKE TO THEM REGARDING I WAS STILL MISSING PAYMENTS ON THE MONTHS THAT IS STILL NOT LISTED ON MY CREDIT REPORT AND ONCE AGAIN I WAS INFORMED THAT I WOULD HAVE TO TAKE IT UP TO THE CREDIT BUREAU. THROUGH OUT THE 15 MONTHS IVE BEEN DEALING WITH THIS ISSUE AND THAT IS ONE OF THE REASON I CHOOSE TO GET THIS CAR LOAN PAY EARLIER I CAN SEE IN GOING THROUGH THE NEXT 5 YEARS OR SO DEALING WITH THIS SAME ISSUE. SO LAST FAST FORWARD ON MY XXXX XXXX CREDIT REPORT I AM MISSING PAYMENTS THAT I HAVE MADE AND IT DOESNT SHOW ON MY XXXX XXXX CREDIT REPORT. EARLIER I DISPUTE THIS AND THE ACCOUNT WAS DELETE OFF OF MY CREDIT REPORT AND ONCE I FILE DISPUTE ABOUT IT IT WAS PUT BACK ON MY CREDIT REPORT. THAT IS WHY I CHOOSE NOT TO GO DIRELY THROUGH XXXX XXXX AND DISPUTE I DONT WANT THE SAME THING TO HAPPEN AGAIN. ONE OF THE REASON WHY IT WAS DELETE IS BECAUSE CREDIT ACCEPTANCE DIDNT GET BACK TO THEM WITHIN THE 30 DAYS OF THE DISPUT PROCESS AND THAT WHY IT WAS TAKEN OFF. SO I WANT THIS ACCOUNT UPDATE TO SHOW ALL OF MY PAYMENT THAT I HAVE MADE ON THIS ACCOUNT. IT SHOULD SHOW PAYMENT FROM XX/XX/XXXX THROUGH XX/XX/XXXX WHEN THIS ACCOUNT WAS PAYED IN FULL. THE BALANCE SHOULD BE A XXXX BALANCE AND IT SHOULD SHOW PAY IN FULL NOTHING LESS THEN THAT. I AM MISSING PAYMENT HISTORY ON THE FOLLOWING MONTHS ON MY XXXX XXXX CREDIT REPORT PAYMENT FOR THE MONTH OF XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX AND THE ACCOUNT WAS PAY IN FULL FOR XX/XX/XXXX. WHEN YOU COMPARE MY CREDIT REPORT FROM XXXX AND XXXX IT SHOWS A DIFFERENT ON EACH REPORT.

I purchased a used vehicle from XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, CO XXXX ) in the last couple weeks. There appears to be only minor issues with the vehicle ... rather, my complaint is in regards to their handling of my financial situation as it relates to the purchase. Here is a bullet point list of issues as they stand as of this writing : ( details in contract attached ) * The finance guy, XXXX XXXX, said " Oh, and the warranty is included '', however, after having been rushed through the paperwork, I reviewed it upon finalization and it is NOT included, it was added on ... over {$2000.00}. * XXXX XXXX also added roadside service, at my expense. ( both this and the above are OPTIONAL and I was not properly informed of them being added let alone given the option to select or decline. * The agreement between myself and XXXX XXXX ( salesman ) and his manager ( XXXX XXXX last ) that I could take possession of the vehicle and pay the down payment of {$620.00} by XX/XX/2019. Today ( XXXX ) I discovered a withdrawal from my checking account for {$310.00} that I did not authorize! I phoned XXXX XXXX who said he knew nothing of this transaction of # XXXX from my account today, but assumed it was his 'business office ' and they were closed until Monday ( XXXX ) so nothing could be done until then. I told him that was not acceptable, that this needed to be rectified immediately. He said it was impossible. He suggested I speak to the dealership manager and took my name an number and said he'd ( the mgr ) would call me back. As of this moment XXXX XXXX, the dealership is closed and I have yet to receive a call! The used car division of XXXX is on the same property as the new dealership, to the west. This location, I believe, is occupied by personnel of the Credit Acceptance company. Thus, I believe they are acting in concert as it certainly seems that XXXX must be well aware and thus condoning, supporting and encouraging the activities of Credit Acceptance. If I am correct in that the personnel at this location are Credit Acceptance employees, then it is them who added items to my loan without agreement or consent and committed consumer fraud through subprime lending practices. The location information I have provided is for the Colorado location in XXXX as I don't know the home office address of Credit Acceptance.

Account Number XXXX On XX/XX/2020, I XXXX XXXX purchased a XXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX, located in XXXX, NJ. Unfortunately after further review the vehicle was unsatisfactory and realized there was information about the vehicle that wasn't provided at the time of purchase. When I took the vehicle for a test drive I informed them that the vehicle kept shifting to the right. I asked that the issue be fixed before I agreed to buy the vehicle and they agreed. When I returned to purchase the vehicle everything seemed fine. About a week later the vehicle started shifting towards the right again. Took it back to the dealership and explained that the car still had the same problem. After further investigation I looked up the VIN number and realized the vehicle had been in an accident on the passenger side and this information was not provided to me at the time of purchase. I was accepted for a loan thru Credit Acceptance in the amount of {$19000.00}, after looking into it I realized that not only was the car not worth that price, in top of multiple hidden fees, the price on the car was raised. On XX/XX/XXXX the car was listed at {$13000.00}, on XX/XX/XXXX {$13000.00}, and XX/XX/XXXX {$17000.00}, which is when I purchased the vehicle. Not to mention the {$200.00} cash I had to pay for my registration and plates. Furthermore, after I stopped payment on the vehicle, not only did they call everyday, they even sent a check book with my Credit Acceptance account number preprinted on it, with a letter stating that it was to help with payment of the vehicle. I eventually voluntarily surrendered the vehicle and it has caused a very negative impact on my life and on my credit report. I managed to pay {$11000.00} towards the debt, and brought down my outstanding balance of {$25000.00} to {$14000.00}. The fact that not only was the price of the vehicle raised by {$4300.00} at the time I purchased it, an extra {$1700.00} was tackled on top of all that, plus the outrageous interest fees I was being charged. At this point I feel since the original price of the car was {$13000.00} six months prior to the day I bought it, I have satisfied what was owed on the vehicle. At the moment I do not have a steady place of residence so please email any correspondences pertaining to this matter to my email address XXXX. Thank You

My name is XXXX XXXX, I am dealing with a situation with XXXX where there is a Repossession showing on my credit file that is not even under my social security number, though uses a like name and same DOB. I have had the credit bureau dispute the item with the creditor and have contacted the creditor directly and the matter has not been resolved to date. I made direct contact with the fraud department at XXXX in hopes to get an immediate action as I have done before but not with this particular account and I don't understand why it has not been removed yet. I do appreciate the help they have given me thus far as their fraud department has been very expeditious in other matters in the past few days so I have no real complaint about XXXX except why would they allow an account to be reported to my file in the first place when it so obviously had a different social security number attached to it? The company that reported the incorrect information is Credit Acceptance Corp. XXXX. They reported an auto repossession to my credit file with a different social security number and upon being contacted were so rude and disrespectful because I had no account information to supply for obvious reasons. I called them back again and was transferred to a young lady who was very nice and gave me the account number, the name used, verified the last 4 numbers of the social used and that the DOB was the same as mine. I supplied them with my name, address and contact number and the police report information and was advised I would be contacted within 72 hrs by their company. I called XXXX again to give this information, including the name of the lady I spoke with, but the account remains on my credit. I don't for my life understand why it was not removed as soon as they realized the social security number was not mine, it wasn't even close. Anyway, the battle continues as there are multiple accounts that do not belong to me that do have my social security number attached unfortunately for me. I hope my story helps someone else out there going through the same or similar situation. Stay on top of your credit and don't take No for an answer. It's your credit, your right and as long as we live in a society that rates you by a number on a report, you've got to make sure it's correct and the information is accurate.

From the first week we attained our loan from Credit Acceptance and drove our Vehicle off of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Lot we have had continual issues with the vehicle, we were denied use of the additional services we paid {$2500.00} cash for, the warranty was fraudulently sold and unusable due to the state of the vehicle and the parts on it at the time of purchase. We are being charged XXXX in interest for a XXXX loan? We were not shown many of the deceptive things that are in our paperwork. XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX the sales women at XXXX XXXX XXXX was deceptive from telling use the car warranty was included in our loan and that the change in the cars price was due to a higher interest rate. My husband nor myself had jobs upon purchasing the vehicle. We contacted the bank telling them that we could not find anyone to take the warranty and if they could help. They said unfortunately no. The warranty company could not supply a list not could the dealership. The dear ship. We finally found a shop and the car sat for 7 months. XXXX XXXX approved the car repairs but we had to wait for them to inspect our truck. They never came repeated calls from the mechanic. We called the bank- they refused to file a complaint told me that if I had a lawyer they could speak with she would file a complaint. no lawyer no supervisor, no escalation. no complaints. XXXX XXXX XXXX refuses to return phone calls and XXXX XXXX denies repairs that care covered under our warranty. The three companies are working together to defraud Americans. They have completely destroyed my families finances. It took us 6 months to find someone to give us a loan after our transmission blew. I was XXXX with XXXX kids. My husband and I had no car and signed a loan with credit acceptance to purchase a vehicle from XXXX XXXX XXXX with a warranty and a 22 percent interest rate. How is it XXXX for XXXX loan I gave them XXXX cash upfront? I cant leave my house and my trucks been in the shop waiting for someone to pay for repairs for 15 months. the truck is still there in pieces as XXXX XXXX told the mechanic to dissemble my truck. the three companies are working together to deceive buyers. WE bought a XXXX vehicle, paid XXXX cash and ended up with a XXXX loan from credit acceptance. For a truck that was inoperable after 3 months of ownership.

I, XXXX XXXX believes in the credit reporting system as the most important element to the success of the commercial banking system. I am also a proponent of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau XXXX CFPB XXXX as a tool to streamline issues on credit reports that may be dragging down my overall scores. Accordingly, I address each particular issue directly with the creditor in question, before submitting any complaint to the credit bureaus if necessary. Therefore, I desire the following reinvestigation as follows : 1 ) On accounts where late payments are posted, I respectfully request a review of the past payment history and to ascertain if certain payments could actually have been posted late because of an overlap on the 30-days grace period. I realize that this may happen on occasion, and I request only a summary review internally, and do not require any documentation. 2 ) On any account that falls within the 84-month negative reporting timeline, I respectfully request either the deletion of the account if said account was closed, or the elimination of the prior payment if the account it is still active, this is well within the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) guidelines pertaining to obsolete information. 3 ) Any collections must be proved if either a direct collection and/or debt purchase. In either event I request that a true original copy of right to pursue collection be established with each respective credit reporting agency, and if a debt purchase the guidelines proving transfer of ownership must be submitted to all credit bureaus as well as me personally to validate ownership and the right to collect. I am well within my rights requesting proper documentation as administered through the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) and the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), in addition to the even stricter guidelines enforced by the office of attorney general in my state of domicile. I respectfully request each investigation to be reported to XXXX, XXXX and XXXX XXXX within a reasonable time period, hopefully 30-days. I realize that the current Covid-19 crisis could cause delays, so the best efforts of each financial institution and collection agency will be appreciated under the current circumstances. XXXX XXXX

I had a loan for a vehicle through Credit Acceptance for a vehicle I purchased in XX/XX/XXXX. In XXXX after 20 MONTHS OF ONTIME PAYMENTS, the vehicle was stolen and when recovered was a total loss. I had full coverage insurance as well as gap insurance through the finance company on the vehicle. Once recovered, I went to XXXX impound and signed over power of attorney to the finance company so they could deliver the vehicle to the insurance company to pay the claim. Credit Acceptance NEVER DELIVERED THE VEHICLE to the insurance company and after 30 days XXXX impound crushed it and sold it. Due to never getting the vehicle delivered ( which was the responsibility of the finance company as I had signed over all power of attorney ) my insurance company did not pay the finance company. Credit Acceptance then told me I had to continue to make payments on the vehicle which I did for 1 month AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS DEEMED A TOTAL LOSS but then could not afford any longer due to having to purchase another vehicle as well as all my tools that were stolen that were in the vehicle. Credit acceptance then proceeded to attempt to sue me FOR THEIR INCOMPETENCE but the case was thrown out by the judge. In XXXX, my insurance company finally paid out Credit Acceptance but I never received ANY FORM OF REIMBURSEMENT for the taxes, plates, my tools or any of the thousands of dollars in parts I had installed prior to the theft of the vehicle and total loss. Currently Credit Acceptance shows I have 6 charge offs on my credit report which has prevented me from obtaining housing, loans and credit cards for the past 5 years as this is one of the only accounts on my report. I had NEVER MADE A LATE PAYMENT- EVER- and yet they are still saying I was in collections over the account and refuse to change this after MULTIPLE times contacting them as well as MULTIPLE DISPUTES. Credit Acceptance has made my life a living XXXX the past 5 years and has resulted in homelessness ( even while I was working full time- I could not find an apartment due to my credit score being so low as it dropped from a XXXX to in the 400s due to this ) yet they refuse to fix anything on my account. I have the utmost contempt for this company as they have made me suffer beyond words and destroying my life is nothing but a game to them.

On or about XX/XX/XXXX I woke up normal time ( XXXX ) and looked outside. My XXXX XXXX was gone. I called the police and reported it stolen. This was during the time the XXXX Boys were all over the news for stealing the XXXX and XXXX cars. I filed the next day, a claim with my insurance XXXX and also email my lender, Credit Acceptance. At this time my attorney told me to not to pay on the car as it was stolen and that XXXX will be able to pay it off. I also had XXXX Insurance as well for coverage. By XXXX XXXX notified me that Credit Acceptance did not get back to them. I continued to email Credit acceptance with no success. I also sent letters to Credit Acceptance asking them to please get ahold of XXXX. XXXX let me know the rental car I was using would expire by XX/XX/XXXX so I went to XXXX XXXX and purchased a new XXXX XXXX XXXX. My credit report was pulled and I was approved by XXXX for a new car loan. I drove the new car home on XX/XX/XXXX. Everything was great! Then on XX/XX/XXXX, on XXXX XXXX in XXXX, I was hit by a XXXX and the new car was destroyed. The insurance for the individual XXXX told me to go to XXXX for a rental car until the claim was paid for the car. I did. The rental car was good until XXXX as XXXX decided to only allow so many weeks. I went to borrow a car from a friend and used it until XX/XX/XXXX when it broke down. I was able to secure another car from a friend temporary. Why the delay? I have been dealing with health problems because of the accident. On XX/XX/XXXX I applied for a car/loan again with XXXX XXXX XXXX The sales person called me back and said Why is there a repo on your credit report? I told him no that car was stolen. He said the payoff looks like {$2500.00}. I said NO I had XXXX year left and owed {$4800.00}. He said that is not what Credit Acceptance is showing. I email Credit Acceptance and AGAIN, they refuse to answer. I called my attorney and he said facts are simple : If they did repo the car, why did not my credit report show it back the end of XXXX? Second, I was NOT given the right to cure the alleged default. Third, I was not given the right to retrieve my personal belongings. If this is true, my rights were definitely violated. It is so hard now to get a loan. I hope no one else has to deal with this situation. XXXX XXXX

I did not have the best of credit, my score was about 630. I had originated a loan XX/XX/XXXX on a XXXX XXXX XXXX with Credit Acceptance, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX, MI. XXXX The loan document shows the amount financed was XXXX, at an APR of 22.99 % for a total finance charge of {$10000.00} for a term of 66 months, the monthly payment being XXXX with the first payment due XX/XX/XXXX. I have made my payments and have had no problems until I was involved in an auto accident on Tuesday XX/XX/XXXX. I even made my regular vehicle payment to Credit Acceptance in the amount on {$380.00}, on Friday XX/XX/XXXX. I regularly paid more than my monthly payment. On Tuesday XX/XX/XXXX The XXXX Insurance adjuster declared the vehicle a Total Loss and the at fault drivers insurance company, XXXX has issued a market value total loss payment check, made entirely payable to Credit Acceptance on XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$9300.00}. Credit AcceptancXXXX has generated a letter on XX/XX/XXXX. Stating they received an insurance check and made no reference to how much the check they received was for. They also claim I owe money on the loan since I did not have GAP insurance. No amounts given on the letter I have never received ANY telephone contact communication until XX/XX/XXXX, when I returned their missed call. Now they call every day, several times a day trying to collect a " deficiency amount '' that changes on EVERY phone call. It's insanity. My contract states a loan for XXXX, with a 22.99 % APR. It states the total finance charge would be {$10000.00}. For a total of payments being {$25000.00}. They credited only {$4800.00} finance charge rebate, which I find odd as there are 41 months left on the loan, The math does not add up, they FLAT OUT told me I'm not entitled to an accounting of how they arrived at the finance charge rebate. They threatened to RUIN my credit, The offered an {$800.00} pay in full settlement on Monday XX/XX/XXXX. When they called me on Friday XX/XX/XXXX the offer was {$900.00}. And they'll help me get another car. The joke is ON them, I have already purchased another car and I'm paying much less interest thanks to the timely payments of the car and several credit cards my credit score has gone up significantly since my original loan with Credit Acceptance.

To whom it may concern, within the timing of the auto repossession it was commonly a surprise to me. Due to the fact Ive had multiple communications with representatives from Credit Acceptance. From XXXX. During, before, and after COVID-19. Communication went as followed Credit Acceptance agreed to remove ALL late payments under goodwill status. Not to mention they also agreed to non-repossession, and non-reporting ANY late payments to third parties. Throughout the year of 2022 Credit Acceptance has reported 11 late payments, and 1 repossession to third party credit bureaus. Credit Acceptance defaulted on their agreement to non-reporting, and non-repossession Pursuant to 18 USC 8, I owe no debt, the company is violating my consumer right to privacy pursuant to 15 USC 168:1 : b2. The company has no permission to report ANYTHING using my info pursuant to 15 USC 168:1:4 On XX/XX/2022 I immediately asked for the credit bureaus to investigate, and remove account from credit report. Credit Acceptance doesnt have the right to make an agreement, and default on the agreement. In which, caused a breach of peace during the repossession, and also deformation of character. Ive lost personal property when the vehicle was repossessed Secondly, the vehicle was repossessed on a personal property behind a closed locked gate. Thirdly I was never informed nor received a message as to where, and how I may collect/retrieve personal items. According to Michigan repossession laws all three reasonings is a breach of privacy. I'm highly upset that Credit Acceptance are partners with XXXX XXXX. As stated by personal experience the company itself has been known for stealing customers personal items. At the time of the repossession I was unable to hold my job due to missing work and lack of transportation. That also incur other significant costs, including the expense of finding alternative transportation, fees related to repossession, and negative marks on credit reports. Not to mention Credit Acceptance engaged unfairly failing to obtain refunds for me for add-on products that no longer provides a benefit to me. Credit acceptance has also misled me about the amount of final loan payments after my normal payments were deferred due to financial difficulties largely as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

On XX/XX/17 I went to XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, NY to purchase a used XXXX XXXX XXXX car which I saw advertising in the XXXX XXXX Website for sale at {$4900.00}. The salesman told me that the car was being cleaned and it was not in the lot and if I was interested in the car, he would start the paperwork and I could come another day to finalize the purchase. I posted a downpayment of {$2500.00} for the car and we agreed that the dealership will be taking my old car for a price of {$300.00}, bringing my downpayment for the car at {$2800.00} He proceeded to take my information for financing the car. I was told that I was approved for the car loan and I will be paying {$230.00} a month for 36 months. On tuesday ( XX/XX/17 ), I went to pick up the car and I asked for the paperwork to be signed and I was told the same information as provided that Saturday ( XX/XX/17 ), and that the application was filled out on line and that I will be getting a phone call from the Financial Company to verify the purchase of the car. Later that day, I received a call from Credit Acceptance to verify that I have purchased the vehicle at the same time I asked for a copy of the paperwork and I was told by Credit Acceptance that the Dealership was responsible for providing copy of the contract. I called the Dealer again and I was told that a copy will be mailed same day. 2 weeks later and after opening a claim with Credit Acceptance Customer Service Area, I received a copy of contract in the mail and found the following : 1- The Car Sale Price in the contract was inflated by {$3000.00}. Car was advertised for {$4900.00} and that was the agreed at the time of the sale.

2- The last page of the contract shows my signature which is not my signature. I am certain that the signature was copied from the trade of my car form. I traded my old car at the time I picked up the XXXX XXXX.

3. The contract life of the loan is showing 57 payments at {$230.00} instead of 36 months as agreed by both parties.

I went to dealership to show the discrepancy in the car sale and I was told that there is a dealership fee and an extra fee from Credit Acceptance for the loan. That information was never told neither is showing in the contract.

I submitted another claim to Credit Acceptance Corp. on XX/XX/17.

I recently appplied for a loan with Credit Acceptance i n XXXX . In XXXX I was admitted into he hospital for 2 months and fell behind on my payments. Consequently, I the collection calls started coming in. I recieved a call fr om Credit Acceptance in the month of XXXX and was told that a full payment of {$280.00} was due today to avoid repossession. Once payment was made over the phone, the associate would then contact the towing company and tell them to cancel the repossession process. The payment was made and the account was settled I called again in XXXX to make arrangements w ith Credit Acceptance so that I could build a rapport with them. I al so inquired with the associate what their policy and time frames were on repossessing vehicles and told about the situation that happened in XXXX . She informed that the associate had no right telling me that my car is was about to get repossed without an immediate payment and she then apologized on behalf of the company. Naturally I felt confused and lost peace of mind with Credit Acceptance. It is now XXXX and I fulfilled my arrangement of {$100.00} to keep the account satisfied. They called again today XXXX / XXXX / 2017 a nd I spoke with an associate to make further arrangements. I told what I could afford and when the payment would be made. She did n't accept my offer and when I tried to explain to her my hardship situation she not only interrupted me several times but was condescending and threatening. She then further threatened to notate my account and said I was being " uncooperative ''. I understand th at Credit Acceptance h as a job to do it collecting payments. But I do not have any peace of mind with this company. They are very aggressive with their collection calls and ask me inappropriates questions like " in order to make payments can you ask your parents for help? Or can you ask your relatives for help? '' These questions make me feel uncomfortable. I also need them to give me a clear understanding of what their policy is on repossessing vehicles. I was told that as long as I make arrangements with them I can avoid that consequence but each time I speak with this bank I get different answers. As a result I wake up every day XXXX wondering if my car will be gone or not.

In XXXX I opened a loan with XXXXedit Acceptance, I was told by the car lot that because of my credit position that this was my only option and that after a year of payments, I could come back and they would refinance my loan. The car lot was extremely pushy and after reading some of the articles about how Credit acceptance operates, I am willing to believe that the car dealership received some money from credit acceptance from my signing up with them. But because I was in a situation where I desperately needed a vehicle, I went ahead and agreed to the loan. I purchased the car for {$14000.00} with an APR of XXXX %. Although the amount was too high for my income, I went ahead and stressfully made payments. In XXXX I lost my job because of COVID and fell behind in payments. Credit Acceptance eventually came out with a statement and said that since we were in a global pandemic they would waive the late fees and be willing to make payment arrangements. I was not in a predicament to make payments but I settled on {$100.00} a week because I was fearful of having my vehicle repossessed. The total payment arrangement was {$400.00} a month when my actual car note was supposed to be {$390.00}. So even then it was more than the payment amount. They began to harass me and call all of the time saying that my vehicle was in danger of being repossessed unless I increased the payments. So I went up to {$120.00} a week which was {$500.00} a month that I really didnt have at all but again was fearful that they would repossess my car. I had to call them back and we eventually settled on a payment of {$200.00} twice a month. Ive been faithfully making payments to them every month, but they are still reporting my account as derogatory and past due even though Ive tried to make arrangements and I do make on-time payments. Recently I have requested a payoff amount with them because I am wanting to refinance this loan. The payoff amount was roughly {$8000.00}. I believe that this is completely unacceptable because I have given Credit Acceptance {$19000.00} in payments for a {$14000.00} vehicle. I am filing a complaint with you all because this is a nightmare situation to be in, and I would love to be able to just have the title to the vehicle without paying so much for a payoff.

In Regards to case complaint # XXXX and attachments response from XXXX XXXX via cfpb, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX stated that, I XXXX XXXX , was given all proper documentation from XXXX XXXX legal counsel XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX towards this alleged debt. XXXX XXXX stated, '' For your reference, Ive attached a copy of the XX/XX/XXXX letter we sent you attaching your Retail Installment Contract, Declaration Acknowledging Electronic Signature Process, and payment history, as well as the notices we sent you during and after your vehicle was repossessed and sold at auction. I am requesting specific proof about the mailing of notices before and after sale. I have been REQUESTING THESE DOCUMENTS from day one, I have never received anything by mail during the appointed time that your company and attorney claimed you sent to the address : XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, CT XXXX. XXXX XXXX stated that, on or about XX/XX/XXXX, A NOTICE OF REPOSSESSION/NOTICE OF RIGHT OF REDEMPTION and so on WAS SENT TO ME VIA USPS CERTIFIED MAIL WITH TRACKING NUMBER XXXX. If you take a look at that tracking info it is unrelated to this case or issue. I will attach. According repo Laws, XXXX XXXX Violated the FDCPA. In addition, XXXX XXXX claim that Credit Acceptance Corporation is not a " debt collector '' under the FAIR DEBT COLLECTION PRACTICES ACT, WHICH THAT IS FALSE. AS PURSUANT TO 15 USC 1692a ( 6 ) The term debt collector means any person who uses any instrumentality of interstate commerce or the mails in any business the principal purpose of which is the collection of any debts, or who regularly collects or attempts to collect, directly or indirectly, debts owed or due or asserted to be owed or due another. Also, lets set the record straight my signature and initials is not any where on that alleged " contract '', I have been requesting an original contract with my wet signature. Like I said when I request information from your Counsel they state they only have copies. They cant show me anything original, how is that valid? You stated that your counsel send me documentation or correspondence through mail where is your proof of that? That's all hearsay. I will be taking this case to federal court with proof all violations of my federal consumer rights.

In XX/XX/XXXX I had went to search for a vehicle that would be reliable and just in a certain price range that I would be able to afford. I came across a car lot just off of XXXX at the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX There was a XXXX XXXX XXXX that was just within my budget priced at {$11000.00} which with payments I felt confident to be able to pay off within a reasonable time. I came back to the lot the next day and traded in my XXXX XXXX towards the total and spent the whole day with a gentleman at a desk to cover the contract for the XXXX. Everything seemed to make sense and I signed the contract and made several months worth of payments that were around {$400.00}. One day I wanted to inquire about what I still owed on the XXXX so I called the credit acceptance company and asked what the amount I still owed was at and I was told that I owed around {$34000.00}. At that point I thought there must be some sort of confusion and that they had pulled up the wrong account. When I spent a whole business day with the gentleman in the lot to cover the contract, I had asked him 20-40 times throughout the discussion of the contract if there were anything on each page worded to change the overall price or finance of the XXXX in which every time he assured me no not at all sir this vehicle is {$11000.00}. Once realizing that I had been scammed and had taken a loan that I would actually not be able to afford I surrendered the XXXX and had lost my means of transportation. On top of that they sued me in court immediately and my credit has been ruined since XXXX. I am currently still on a homeless veterans program to assist with my living situation and to this day, even though I am permanently and totally XXXX through the VA from a service connected injury I still can not be approved for a home loan to provide for me, my wife and XXXX children. The account sits at {$11000.00} today and is preventing me from moving forward in getting my home loan through XXXX XXXX. I would have never agreed to anything that would have caused my life to collapse this way and at that time exceeded my budget so greatly. When I went back to the dealership to ask questions about what had happened they were no longer a car lot and the business was now an audio shop. I need help, thanks.

I have an auto loan through credit acceptance, I have monthly payment due for the XXXX of each month. I did have auto-pay set up for this monthly payment however, I canceled the auto pay because payment was being taken from my account but not documented, I ended up being behind 2 monthly payments as they stated. I received nothing in the mail about this or any phone calls. I actually called them to take auto payment off, at this time they informed me i was 2 months behind even though my bank statements showed differently. They then informed me that they do n't contact their customers with these issues. I informed them that I would make the required payments as soon as possible. The next day they repossessed my vehicle, I have to pay the required fees and payment to get my car return, they completely trashed my car, kept personal items including my title and all personal documents in the glove compartment and have yet to return them. This company will not allow me to set-up payments according to my pay periods and because, of this I am always paying late payments. They will call me over XXXX times a day from unknown numbers, from block numbers, numbers from different states and leave automatic voicemails everyday. Everytime I speak to someone to set-up a payment, the next day they continue, no XXXX documents any of the calls or payment arrangements I have made. I have been hung up on, threats to have my car repossessed even though I have never been a month or more behind. I have been asked personal information about my banking accounts and working situation that they should n't be asked, and when I inform them of the harassment I am hung up on. I have asked them to no longer contact me by phone but by mail and they refuse to do so, they stated that they do n't have a mailing system set-up to do so. All my payments are made through XXXX XXXX and till this date I have yet to receive any documentation in mail from this company regrading my loan, balance, or any issues relating to my account. Instead I get these never ending calls. My account has never been over a month late if anything 2 weeks late and I still get these threats.This is the worst auto loan company ever, I am currently trying to get it refinanced through a bank or credit union.

I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention a serious matter concerning the repossession of my vehicle, a XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. The circumstances surrounding the repossession have raised significant concerns regarding the handling of my personal information. My vehicle was repossessed from an address where I do not currently reside, and this action was carried out by a non-affiliated third party. To my knowledge, I did not receive any communication providing information about or obtaining my consent for the release of my private information to this third party. Moreover, I want to draw your attention to the provisions of 15 U.S. Code 6802, which outlines obligations with respect to disclosures of personal information by financial institutions. According to 6802 ( b ), a financial institution must follow specific procedures before disclosing nonpublic personal information to a nonaffiliated third party : Clearly and Conspicuously Disclose : The financial institution must clearly and conspicuously disclose to the consumer, in writing or electronic form, that such information may be disclosed to a third party. Provide Opt-Out Opportunity : The consumer must be given the opportunity, before the initial disclosure, to direct that such information not be disclosed to the third party. Explanation of Nondisclosure Option : The consumer must be given an explanation of how to exercise the option to prevent the disclosure of their information. To the best of my knowledge, Credit Acceptance did not provide me with any written notice offering an opportunity to opt-out of the disclosure of my information. Furthermore, my private information was provided to a non-affiliated third party with whom I have had no prior association or contractual agreement. I am deeply concerned about the violation of privacy and the potential mishandling of my personal information. I kindly request a thorough investigation into this matter, an explanation of the circumstances surrounding the release of my information, and immediate steps to rectify any breach of privacy. Your prompt attention to this issue is appreciated, and I expect a swift and comprehensive resolution. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

In XX/XX/XXXX, I trusted this company with that law and rights when agreeing to get this vehicle. I was told that I had to put down XXXX to move car off lot. According to 15 U.S. Code 1662 this company has valid this law. On XXXX XXXX I called the company and ask did they participate in the TILA and stated the law and my rights and to resolve issue in a professional manner. Customer representative stated that I read the law wrong and she proceed to put me on hold, when representative return back to call she then hung up on me. I then called back and spoke with another Customer Representative and stated the law and my rights back to him, his response was I'm not a lawyer so I wouldn't know anything about that.

I am writing to get assistance with Credit Acceptance. This is my second complaint against this company. I attempted to get this account deleted from my file due to inaccurate information being reported on my credit file. In response to my first complaint Credit Acceptance sent me documentation for a vehicle that I already paid off. They are reporting a second vehicle with the same account number. I deployed with the Delaware Army National Guard 198th Expeditionary Signal Battalion in support of Operation Enduring Freedom ( Spartan Shield ) in XX/XX/XXXX. I got divorced prior to leaving for my deployment. This vehicle does not belong to me. My credit report shows that there has not been a payment for this vehicle since XX/XX/XXXX. 18 months of late payments have been reported. This derogatory item is negatively affecting my ability to use my VA loan to purchase my first home along with causing me anxiety due to the adverse impact is has on my credit score. I was discouraged upon my return from deployment in XXXX of XXXX, to find that my credit score was severely damaged by a vehicle that does not belong to me. It is unfair that I am being held liable for payments that violate my rights as a Servicemember. 50U.S. Code Chapter 50-Servicemembers Civil Relief Act declares in the case of a member of the National Guard, includes service under a call to active service authorized by the President or the Secretary of Defense for a period of more than 30 consecutive days under section 502 ( f ) of title 32 for purposes of responding to a national emergency declared by the President and supported by Federal funds there is XXXX. Protection under installment contracts for purchase or lease and 105 Stat. 39, related to protection of persons secondarily liable. I am filing this complaint against Credit Acceptance for violating my rights under the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act. I attempted to resolve this issue myself. Please address this matter immediately. I am asking that Credit Acceptance delete this item from XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX immediately and permanently. As a Veteran, I have served my country honorably and would like the opportunity to live a full and productive life with credit in good standing in the country that I serve.

On XXXX i reported an auto accident in a private own location to XXXX insurance which days later XXXX declared my XXXX XXXX XXXX to be a total loss. XXXX agreed to pay off the car for a total of {$2900.00} but since the car was still under financing, the money would be redirected to the bank Credit Acceptance. The process took about 45 days in which I, without having a car, still continued to make monthly payments to the bank on time. Once the money from XXXX was sent to Credit Acceptance, the total amount was reduced. Credit Acceptance allowed me to pay the remaining balance in two installments. I made the payments on time and Credit Acceptance sent me a letter of XX/XX/XXXX stating that the contract has been canceled and that the account has been paid in full. There have been countless times between XXXX and XXXX that I tried to apply for a car loan and I have all been denied until the end of XX/XX/XXXX when I made a last attempt to request a personal loan at the bank of XXXX XXXX which I am notified of the credit denial because the credit report showed a delinquent of fund that was sent to collection. I further requested my own credit check from XXXX and found that during the time of settling the debt with Credit Acceptance and XXXX, Credit Acceptance reported me as Potentially having Negative in payments and that they had taken it to collection. The report says that the payments were made from XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX and from XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX they took it to collection. This report contradicted it sent since, from the same report, It also indicated that I made the payment from XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX. I have never received any letters nor phone calls indicated that this had occurred throughout the duration of time that i still continued to pay for my car after the accident. On XX/XX/XXXX, I called a representative from Credit Acceptance about what happened and their only response was that I have 30 days from today to dispute this claim but they are not able to change anything in my credit record. A bad report in my credit history at no fault of mine led me to the loss of time, employment, future projects and not only to me, but to my family as well. Thank you very much for your attention, I sincerely wait for answers

I went to a car dealership by the name of XXXX XXXX XXXX where I was made to believe that I would be financing a car of my choice with them. I was told I needed to give my social security number. After I was asked for my social I then believed I would be doing a consumer credit transaction, seeing as how my credit card social security card was used, but I received no benefit. I was told that I needed to put {$12000.00} usd as a down payment down for the vehicle. This was also false and misleading because down payments are illegal, and there was a breach in the fiduciary obligation regarding my social. Once my signature securitized the document I was unsure why I was being charged a down payment. After it was time to pay my first alleged car payment, I was told that I needed to make the payment with Credit Acceptance. There was never an agent from credit acceptance at the car dealership and I never had communications with credit acceptance. I sent credit acceptance a notice asking them to please inform me on how I could owe them a debt that I never contracted with them on. Theres supposed to be a meeting of the minds regarding any contracts and that wasnt the case here. Only I and auto land signed the contract which would make me owing credit acceptance null and void. I was also told that credit acceptance received a portion of my down payment which is a violation of the TILA. I then sent credit acceptance a second notice asking them if they can please discharge my loan and refund me for the multiple car notes and repossession fees I had to pay to get my property back once it was stolen. I am the consumer and live person. If I signed a contract with credit acceptance that would be one thing. But for me to be blindsided is another thing. Each time credit acceptance repossessed my vehicle I had to pay {$1000.00} to retrieve it. Credit acceptance also verbally told me on the phone both times that each time my vehicle is repossessed they add {$100.00} more to my monthly car payment. Another thing I never signed for. At this point, credit acceptance should be shut completely down. They have been sued multiple times for deception and fraud and they have yet to stop and be honest. Praying this nightmare will end soon.

I financed a XXXX XXXX through Credit Acceptance XX/XX/XXXX for {$26000.00}. The vehicle was unfortunately totaled XX/XX/XXXX. After the insurance company made an insurance payment of {$10000.00}, Finance Charge Rebate of {$10000.00}, XXXX cancellation of {$2000.00} and a few payments made by me, Credit Acceptance made a settlement of {$800.00} in lieu the balance due of {$4300.00} XXXX. I have found out that I have been denied credit due to the balance still reporting as " outstanding '' on my credit reports. I am a business owner, and I was trying to obtain business loan financing which require a check of my personal credit. I was told on more than one occasion that this outstanding negative debt was the reason I was denied even with a 700+ credit score. I was denied a $ XXXX loan at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX $ XXXX Equipment leasing loan $ XXXXXXXX I contacted Credit Acceptance on XX/XX/XXXX and spoke to a regular customer service representative and their supervisor. I advised them of the error that was reporting and that I was being denied credit due to their error. I was told they would mail me a credit dispute form that I would have to mail back to Credit Acceptance so that they could research the issue. This process is now 2 months in. I called today and spoke to a rep who advised me that they did receive my dispute letter, and it has been resolved. I asked for the resolution info, and she said it was not available. This is where my frustration sets in with them. It is a long-drawn-out process that is costing me time and money. Not to mention the opening of my new location has been delayed because of this. I also provided them with THREE letters that they sent to me which says that I have settled the balance in full but yet they are still reporting to the credit bureaus that my balance is outstanding. I mailed those 3 letters back to them as proof that THEY know that I don't owe them anything. But still, they continue to report a balance on my credit reports. This has cost me a lot of money. I researched Credit Acceptance and what they are doing to me has happened to others and even worse. I need help with this resolution to these unfair credit reporting practices, please.

I purchased a XXXX XXXX XXXX from a dealership named XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX located at XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, NJ XXXX, back in XXXX. I paid {$6000.00} cash the day I purchased it and financed {$7900.00}. I was told there were no mechanical problems, he ( XXXX the car dealer ) had his mechanic check the car thoroughly inspect the vehicle and it was in perfect mechanical shape. 7 months later the engine blew due to a manufacturing defect that XXXX lost a class action lawsuit over. XXXX denied responsibility and told me I had to contact XXXX XXXX, which I did and they put the responsibility back on the car dealer because there was a 10 year window to have the car fixed for free, which was never fixed, and the window closed about a month and a half before I purchased the vehicle. I contacted XXXX about this to never hear from him again. Also, XXXX XXXX told me I needed to get the vehicle diagnosed through an official XXXX dealership, which I then did. I brought it to XXXX XXXX. They conveniently misdiagnosed my vehicle not once but twice, told me I'm under the mileage for my warranty, so we waited 2 months for my warranty company to come out and deny my claim for mileage reasons. Then after being lied to, XXXX proceeded to try and extort me for their misdiagnosis, telling me I owe {$1500.00} for the XXXX hours of labor they put into the car. I told them I don't agree and I will not pay for their mistake that has cost me already thousands. They have had my car now over a year, close to a year and a half. I received a phone call from the woman ( XXXX XXXX XXXX at XXXX XXXX who tried to extort me, telling me that due to a state inspection they had, they decided to put the engine that they wanted {$1500.00} for taking out of the vehicle, back into the vehicle so they didn't get in trouble and when would I be making the payment to release my vehicle... I was very angry, at the end on the phone call she told me that she would be charging me a storage fee daily. I'm so appalled by both of these companies, they've completely screwed up my entire life, I had a XXXX XXXX XXXX before all this, now I have almost {$20000.00} in debt for a vehicle that should've never been sold in the first place. Please help..

I received to pay off quotes on the XXXX of XXXX which had to be paid off by the end of that day for its to still be valid, and which I did I was misled into overpaying by {$1000.00}. I then have the printout of the payoff quote which clearly says that the Gap refund and service contract refund was not included in my quote are neither of the quotes from XX/XX/XXXX. I then file the complaint with the consumer hero because they took over a month to give me my money back which was just a reversal on the extra payment I made. Then I got something in the mail saying that my title was released electronically and any Gap or service contract refund was not included and I should be expecting a check. Just about one week ago which is about XX/XX/XXXX I received another print out in the mail saying that my account has been credited with my Gap payment and my refund amount service refund which is impossible and not true because I've already was closed out from the first time you sent me a letter saying that my lease my lien was taken off already good because I paid it off. I called them yesterday XX/XX/XXXX and had them sit there and lie to me over and over again about within correct dates and incorrect mouth and we're not did not give me the time to even explain anything to Dad because they were so sure they're right when I have all the documentation and paperwork proving that they are in fact wrong and they are very ignorant and rude people they need to be shut down because of the way they treat others and somebody should sue them and take everything that they have because they don't even deserve bread to eat. They lie they charge interest and get mad when you make payments late which I've never made a late one but yet they can't pay you back on time and they're just liars and they're greedy and they're scandalous and are misleading and they don't do anything they say they're going to do by their own contract and I want my money back now it's kind of sad they thought they were going to get over on me because they made trick me into overpaying for no reason because our system doesn't work correctly well unfortunately it's not going to work because I'm not just going to let them rip me off like everyone else off

I have written to Credit Acceptance Corporation since XX/XX/XXXX about late payments on my credit report that they stated that I would not have negative remarks for in XX/XX/XXXX. In XX/XX/XXXX, I opened up this loan for a family who needed to obtain a vehicle-XXXX XXXX XXXX. They fell upon hard times and the vehicle was picked up XXXX XXXX. I paid the recovery to get the vehicle back on track and was put in a repayment plan to catch up the past due balance. I asked specifically when I spoke with the representative on XX/XX/XXXX and they told me that as long as I kept the arrangement then I would not be reported late. I personally repossessed the vehicle from the family member to ensure the payments would be made on time. I have 5 late payments on this account because the arrangement was for 18 months and I paid it off the arrangement early while caring for my then XXXX spouse and was told that I would not have a late payment by setting up the arrangement. Every payment has been made on time for the last year and a half since my husband passed away. I keep up the maintenance on the vehicle by going to my local XXXX dealership in XXXX, XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, this vehicle left me and my XXXX kids unexpectedly on the side of the road because it was running hot and shutting off with no prior warning. I had the vehicle taken to the dealership and they stated a multitude of issues that were expensive to repair. I called Credit Acceptance on XX/XX/XXXX and spoke with XXXX and explained what occurred and asked for an arrangement in order to pay the balance and still get the vehicle repaired. I SPECIFICALLY ASKED AGAIN IF I WOULD HAVE LATE PAYMENT ON MY CREDIT REPORT WITH ME SETTING UP AN ARRANGEMENT AND SHE SAID I SHOULD NOT. The agreement was XXXX that day which I paid and XXXX a month starting XX/XX/XXXX. On Friday XX/XX/XXXX, I get a notification from the credit bureaus stating that this same organization had updated my credit report 30 days late and dropping my FICO score 37 points with XX/XX/XXXX. This company does not respond to any correspondence. They have falsified information to me on several occassions about credit reporting that are inaccurate. I want all of these late payments removed.

This is what happened. I had been leased for a car back in XXXX XXXX. I did n't know know anything about the creditor nor the bank that the dealer had done my loan account and amount for the loan I was asking for. I have never had the copy of the contract for the vehicle or loan. All I was giving was the application I did n't fill out. It was all electronic and electronically signed by the dealer. Until XXXX XXXX I was barely able to make the payments. I looked over the paperwork that the dealer had given me and the only thing correct on the application for the car loan and for the vehicle was where I was employed. My monthly income, when I started my employer, and my housing situation was all false information. I called the creditor to explain to then that the information was incorrect. They would n't change it nor listen to what I had to say. They claimed to have a paystub that I did not give them. The paystub they had informed me that I had gave them was dated for XXXX XXXX, XXXX. I had n't even spoke to them let alone fax such a paystub. I 'm very upset now because they finally came and reposes the vehicle after I had explain to them to come take the car back in XXXX XXXX. I can no longer get my personal belonging from the vehicle. I do n't car about the car itself. I just would like my personal belongings from the vehicle. The creditor who hired the repossession never contacted me so i was able to get my belongings out of the car. In fact I still have the key to the car. When I was at the dealer I was informed that there was only XXXX key and that was it. I never had duplicate. So currently i had to quit my job because I 'm not able to get to my employer. I ca n't get any of my personal belongings from the car because the company who took it for the creditor will not even contact me back about my belongings and I would never be able to get to the place the vehicle was take to. I need help to get this taken care of and I 'm a poor college student. I 'm having to move as soon as my current school semester is over in XXXX XXXX because I have been homeless sense last XXXX XXXX. I was actually sleeping in the car they had reposes. Credit Acceptance, home-base of XXXX Michigan is the worst

XX/XX/XXXX I went to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX tn. I got a XXXX XXXX accord for the price on the window {$2900.00}. I didn't try to negotiate other than asking for a break because the car was disgustingly a filthy disgrace but of course the answer was no. I paid {$1500.00} in cash that day with a deferred pmt to be made in couple weeks of {$280.00}. So I paid for a little bit at $ 285 monthly then started paying weekly at {$80.00} then for a while at {$50.00} either way it went i was never coming out anywhere close to on top. So each week that i was making payments of {$80.00} or {$50.00} i was getting hit with late fees because it wasnt {$280.00} everytime i made that pymnt and four times a month which now has me at {$2000.00} in late fees are you kidding me? which was coming was coming directly out of my check so to make a long story short a year and a half later after paying over {$5000.00} on a {$3000.00} car that was negotiable at the lot I still owe {$6000.00} on this car I've called the company ask them for a payoff less than the amount it says if I paid in full no it's non-negotiable they said my payment is due every XXXX {$80.00} comes out of my check in account and last week they already had me turned into the credit bureau when I checked my XXXXredit score on XXXX they already turned it in that I didn't make a payment and it was set for {$280.00} not the {$80.00} I am a believer that they had me on my credit report on XXXX just to get those late fees again this is wrong to do me this way just because I have bad credit because of a bad divorce they have taken advantage of me like the rest of the world has and I'm quite sick of it and I did forget to say I was driving the car to work one day it was day XXXX that I had bought this car and I was on the side of the road the axle broke and the guy at the car lot XXXX XXXX who sold it to me knew this about the car yeah it did not tell me I also have put about {$3000.00} into this car just to make sure I get a way to work to pay for this car I will never use credit acceptance I will walk before I use this company again they have harassed me the day after I make a payment and I've asked them to stop they refuse and do what they want

About 2 1/2 years ago I purchased a truck from XXXX 's XXXX XXXX located on XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, N.Y. The price was {$14000.00} I gave them {$3000.00} down and financed the balance through Credit Acceptance, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, Mi. XXXX. I was told by XXXX 's XXXX XXXX that in order for me to get financed I had to put an extended warranty on the vehicle, I explained that the vehicle would be used at times for commercial purposes. They told me " don't put any lettering on the vehicle. '' I canceled the extended warranty because it did not cover the truck if it was used for commercial purposes. I was told that the cost and finance charges for the warranty would come off the back end of the loan. After further reading the paperwork I realized XXXX 's XXXX XXXX had arbitrarily raised the price to {$17000.00} without telling me and after I paid them the down payment of {$3000.00}. When I confronted them I was told that Credit Acceptance told them to raise the price, all this without ever telling me they were raising the price. So I called Credit Acceptance and complained about the bait and switch, they denied ever telling XXXX 's XXXX XXXX to do that. I told them I wanted this corrected and was told their legal dept would contact me. The Legal Dept never contacted me but when I got behind in my payment Credit Acceptance had the truck repossessed without warning and by that I mean I had to agree to let XXXX 's XXXX XXXX put a device on the truck that would beep 3 times as a warning that a payment was due. The contract stated that this warning would be every time I started the truck for three days and if payment was not received then the device would not let me start the truck. I did not receive any warning as per the agreement in the contract. After the truck was repossessed I was never given any information about what it sold for at auction, as required by law, or that the {$3000.00} added to the truck by XXXX 's XXXX XXXX or the credit for the canceled extended warranty was ever credited to me. When I called Credit Acceptance about all of this complaint I was told just give us {$5000.00} and we will call it even. I want this removed from my credit report and shown as paid.

To whom it may concern, Hello my name is XXXX XXXX, I am writing you in reference to a situation in which my affiliation through the auto finance company called Credit Acceptance Corporation has persistently dropped my credit score and caused me financial hardship. After much effort to correspond respectfully and amicably, with honest and genuine intentions of coming to an agreement that would remidy the negative information reported to all three credit bureaus. On XX/XX/2018, my employment contract ended as a pilot and there was a three month period in which i was unpaid before my first check from my current place of employment was received. After my payment in XX/XX/2018, I contacted Credit Acceptance Corp. to explain and warn them of my empending and inevitable situation, in an attempt to come to some polite agreement that would eliminate the possible late payment from hitting my credit score and possibly paying more in XX/XX/XXXX to catch up in good faith. To no avail ; I was rejected, and told that late is late, and there was no options for me. I paid them late one half the full payment, and struggleing to pay half, I was able to scrape the money up to pay half, after paying half the full monthly payment they reported to the bureaus that I was 60-90 days late a full payment which is incorrect. I have opted to submit a complaint with the CFPB in an effort stop the situation from worsening. I have called and on all three occasions been rudely turned down put on hold for as long as 45 minutes only to be told that whats done is done and there is nothing that I nor they could, or would do to reverse or rescind even lessen the impact of my late half of one payment. I am an upstanding, morally sound, honest American that I believe contributes positively to society. The customer service phone number is XXXX headquarters located in XXXX, MI. I am asking for help because I am unable to catch up on late bills with even the smallest consolidation loans with my current credit score impact, I have no where to turn for help, moreover the longer it negatively affects my credit, the longer I am unable to improve my situation or my dignity. Kind regards, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Even on my lowest my sister had called for me in early XX/XX/XXXX this year to try and get some information so that I could get help and they told her they could not give her any information.

I went to a dealership in XXXX, it was XXXX XXXX XXXX dealership. I was approved by Credit Acceptance Corp. For a {$13000.00} loan for a XXXX XXXX XXXX . When they approved me I was living in a XXXX XXXX house and I had just gotten a job at XXXX XXXX in XXXX Indiana. I had only been working there for 2 weeks. They asked me for direct deposit records and bank statements. I told them I did not have a bank account but I had a XXXX account. So I gave them my XXXX statements for the previous month and showed them I had only been working for 2 weeks. They approved me for {$13000.00} and some change for a used car. When I got the car within the first week all of the motor mounts broke and the rotors went bad. I took the car back to the dealership because it was under warranty. I called the warranty company and they said that all of the things broken were covered under warranty. The dealership said that these things were not covered so I ended up paying {$700.00} and some change for them to fix everything. I got the car back and it broke down 3 or 4 more times soon after and I ended up just leaving the car in a parking lot and I don't know what ever happened to the car. I just left it there and never looked back. I was over the thing breaking down all the time. Within a month I lost my job and ended up getting a court case against me for the remaining balance of {$12000.00} and some change. I was trying to see what I could do to dispute the case because I was never able to afford it in the first place and I feel they took advantage of me. I was an XXXX in XXXX and had only been working long enough to get one check and they knew all of this. I told the creditor that I was an XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX house and was trying to turn my life around and that my work history was terrible filled with gaps in employment. I feel that I was taken advantage of and now I am trying to fix my credit score and the company took me to court and the judge filed in favor of Credit Acceptance Corp. So now I owe them almost {$13000.00} I need help dealing with this please. I am really struggling with all of this and I don't know what to do. I would appreciate any help you can provide.

Here are my concern, I am upset and annoy that Credit Acceptance would not understand my problem. I explain to them that I am victim of flood that hit state of South Carolina in XXXX XXXX. Because of the flood, it is the reason I am have trouble making payment of my auto loan. This flood damages my home and also put me out of work for few months. Now I had this auto loan since XXXX XXXX and always made my monthly payments on time and more than what is asked to be paid. My monthly payment is {$280.00}, but I always made {$300.00} monthly. On Friday night I made a payment of what is owe leaving me a balance of {$60.00}, so when I got home later that night I find that my vehicle were missing out my backyard. After calling the police to file missing report my vehicle is gone, the officer told me to call the financial company first because they may have it. If Credit Acceptance told you that they done then call back and we file missing vehicle report. I call Credit Acceptance ask where my vehicle is, nobody could not answer my question until next day. Credit Acceptance wanted me to make payment arrangement for the balance amount of {$60.00}. I am confused is what I explain to them because I do n't understand if my vehicle has shut off system on it, then why come and get the vehicle. I got no answer ; instead they wanted me to make arrange for the balance amount of {$60.00}. When I questions them about state of South Carolina law on repossess of vehicle, here is what Credit Acceptance told me " we are second chance auto loan provide and we do n't have to give rights to notice letter. '' I call the dealer to explain my situation and the dealer were very shocker because he was told if you communicate with Credit Acceptance they would never come get the vehicle. So I had to pay a fee of {$250.00} to get my vehicle back, and {$50.00} fee to towing company that clean out vehicle. Not to mention the cost for travel to get my vehicle from XXXX, SC at auction. The Credit Acceptance told me that I still had fee to pay on top of my regular monthly payment. That fee came too totally of {$850.00}. Credit Acceptance break down into monthly fee attach with my monthly payments.

Credit Acceptance claims that I never utilized the service contract for the vehicle, while not acknowledging that they refused to extend the Service Contract to a XXXX XXXX. https : //www.dmv.org/ut-utah/automotive-law/lemon-law.php Utah Lemon Law Utah has a lemon law to protect you in case the new car you buy or lease is so seriously flawed that it can't be repaired ; in other words, if it's a lemon. It's very rare, but it happens. Basically, the Utah lemon law allows vehicle manufacturers a number of attempts to repair your new vehicle 's defect or malfunction before they'll need to either replace the vehicle or refund your purchase. On this page you'll find an overview of the Utah lemon law, the criteria a car must meet to be classified as a lemon, and the steps you may need to take to remedy your issue. Protections Under the Utah Lemon Law The New Motor Vehicle Warranties Act applies to new cars and motor homes under warranty in Utah. Used vehicles are not protected under the Utah lemon law. Under the law, the buyer is entitled to a refund or replacement if the vehicle meets all of the following criteria : The vehicle must have been bought in Utah. It must be new and under warranty. It must weigh under 12,000 lbs. The defect must " substantially impair the use, market value, or safety of the vehicle. '' The manufacturer must have tried to resolve the defect at least 4 times OR the buyer must have been unable to use the vehicle a total of 30 days, whichever comes first, during the first 12 months of the warranty. The defect must not be caused by owner neglect, abuse, or unauthorized vehicle modifications. The buyer must adhere to the manufacturer 's informal dispute settlement or arbitration procedure, if there is one. Many manufacturers use the XXXX XXXX XXXX Auto Line as an informal dispute settlement service. Contact your vehicle 's manufacturer or refer to your owner 's manual for details. NOTE : Be sure to keep records of any vehicle service orders, receipts, or correspondence you may have had with the vehicle manufacturer or the authorized dealer/service facility that has worked on your car.

On XX/XX/XXXX I paid {$120.00} and the week prior I paid {$110.00}, totaling {$230.00}. I was supposed to pay {$210.00} on XX/XX/XXXX after my car was repossessed on XX/XX/XXXX. I paid them {$640.00} on XX/XX/XXXX and claimed the car from the repo agent on XX/XX/XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX while XXXX, a rider attacked me and XXXX put my Driver app on hold prohibiting my from making money in order to pay my bills. I spoke to XXXX at Credit Acceptance and she told me to pay {$290.00} by the XXXX and call back to make new arrangements. When I called today, XX/XX/XXXX a guy named XXXX said I needed to pay {$370.00} or my car would be disabled by tomorrow, Fri XX/XX/XXXX. I told him about my dispute with XXXX over my account being reported as " closed '' when in fact I just made 3 payments over the last 45 or so days and still had the car. He insisted my car would be disabled and offered no further help. I called back and asked for a Supervisor and a guy named XXXX took the call. He listened as I explained my situation and told him I was hired by a new employer and could begin making full payments once I was on payroll in XX/XX/XXXX. I also stated I wanted to make small payments from my XXXX earning since my app was back on. He then told me that " I hear you, but there's nothing I can do but notate your intentions. If {$370.00} isn't paid by tomorrow, your car could be disabled. '' Which is it, {$370.00} or {$370.00}? When Credit Acceptance reps don't threaten to disable the car in an attempt to force struggling customers to make larger payments, the company send a repo agent to force even larger payments and suggests I " ask someone to help me. '' I was lucky to get {$640.00} from a friend in XXXX. I'm not as lucky this month. I believe this company repossess cars fraudently, and not in compliance with the laws or financing agreement entered into between consumers and the company. They're deceptive. I simply want more time to pay and a more reasonable payment agreement based on the change in my financial ability since losing the XXXX income and waiting for my 1st pay check once I start the new job on XX/XX/XXXX. Any help the CFPB can offer is appreciated.

I financed a used car on XX/XX/XXXX, with a used car dealer at the time they were in a transition to change their company name from " XXXX XXXX XXXX '' to what they are now called " XXXX XXXX ''. The loan company is named " Credit Acceptance ''. On my bill of sale I owe {$25000.00} for a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX quad cab. I was also informed that this is the total amount I will owe. But when I logged in to my online account today with credit acceptance on XX/XX/XXXX, it shows that the initial cost of the vehicle is {$44000.00}. Which is untrue. Other times I have logged in prior to this I've noticed it fluctuated from XXXX to the XXXX range. and today {$44000.00} is what is reflected. I sense there is some numbers manipulation going on here and I sense that credit acceptance is not being honest and is not conducting business in complete legitimacy. Also at the time this was my first time purchasing or making any kind of auto purchase ever and I knew nothing about credit or interest ratings for car loans. After making this mistake I've learned that the whole time I was being taken advantage of as I didn't know that 22 % APR on a used car was so high. Whether that be a used car or a new car for that matter. I learned that this rate is unacceptable as I tell everyone about my APR interest rating, they all tell me its extremely high and that I pretty much got taken advantage of. I demand that this unfair act be corrected and that no one else shall have to face the same financial hardships I have due to such high rates! I would like to move forward with addressing these issues and have the credit acceptance company take full responsibility for their actions! I have looked at my online contract and noticed there were fees not discussed in greater detail with me at the time of making the purchase. I initially thought that I would be paying only {$25000.00}. I realized now that it was the high interest rate at 22 % that made this amount go up. It doesn't make sense to me and I'm not happy about it at all. I feel as I have been tricked into making the purchase and no one ever explained to me that I would owe more than the vehicle was worth!

I bought a car and was financed through credit acceptance lender in XXXX in XXXX, NY. About 3 months after purchasing and making my payments on time, I was leaving from work and the vehicle did not start. When I called credit acceptance they told me I owed them {$100.00} but could not give me details as to why I owed, and told me that the car was disabled until u paid it. This was the beginning to my problems and I was paying {$450.00} for a XXXX XXXX. As time went on and I continued making my payments..there were times in which I did not get paid until 3-4 days after car payment was due, and my vehicle would be disabled and put into repossession mode in which they could pick the car up and charge me the fees it would cost for repo as well as the car payment. If this company is suppose to help build credit, why are they allowed to continue to charge fees at ridiculous rates to keep people or worsen their credit building process. Im so confused, because this should be illegal. Furthermore I have had my car repossessed, even when my car payment was made on time and the vehicle was n't even disabled! When I called credit acceptance with the repossession guy awaiting to see what was to happen, they said that the car was in repossession. So the guy took the car. I called back later that day after checking my bank statements and reviewed in fact that my payment was made, they told me it was a mistake on their behalf and went on to tell me that I was still responsible for the repo fees of {$250.00} in order to obtain my car back. This was it for me. I paid the {$250.00} and started looking for another vehicle and the following month did a volunary repossession. Now they have been trying to sue me for the difference of {$6000.00}. Retail price at purchase with the {$10000.00} interest rate was {$28000.00}. I drive the car for 3 years and paid off over {$16000.00} for a car worth {$10000.00} initially. I feel like something needs to be done because this company is ripping people off in somewhat a legal way, but faces itself as fraudulent. I just want them to call it even and stop jeopardizing my credit that I have been working so hard to clear up.

I had two different loans with credit acceptance corporation. One I was a co signer on the other I was the main borrower/signer. The one I was co signer on was impounded due to my sister who was the main signer being pulled over. It was placed at XXXX in the town we live in. XXXX refused to release the vehicle to me even though I was co signer, I contacted credit acceptance and told them the situation they ended up letting XXXX keep the vehicle and went after my wages to still pay what was left on the loan. XXXX sold the vehicle and I was left to continue to pay on it. My sister only owed less than XXXX to begin with and I paid thousands because they went after MY WAGES! I paid them {$160.00} a month for years until they said they were satisfied! They even had the audacity to send me the title after I paid them thousands of dollars and they knew I never had the vehicle. The vehicle I owned was repossessed after awhile and again I didnt owe much on it, I ended up getting it out of repo keeping it awhile longer then decided to just do a voluntary surrender. The payments and terms on the loan were ridiculous to begin with. These ppl take advantage of ppl with limited credit and income. But I still knew I was responsible for what I owed according to the loan terms. Well they resold the vehicle and again tried garnishing my wages for an amount more than what the loan was even for, they didnt even take in to account whatever they sold the vehicle for. Again I was stuck paying them {$160.00} a month for years with no vehicle to show for. I am actually STILL paying on this one. Its been very stressful and took a blow to my income that Im paying them thousands of dollars with nothing to show for it. They use a law firm called XXXX XXXX to attack your wages for ungodly amounts. They should be sued for pain and suffering and have to give people their money back and then some. The most recent garnishment I have from them was from XXXX and I am still paying {$160.00} a month. The previous one was from XXXX. I reached out to credit acceptance on multiple occasions but was always told to contact the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX!!!! These people are crooks!!

My name is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX, MN XXXX phone XXXX DOB # XX/XX/XXXX SSN # XXXX DL # XXXX. I have a car loan with Credit Acceptance XXXX # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX, MI XXXX XXXX. I purchase my vehicle last year XX/XX/XXXX. I have made on-time payments since I opened my account. My account is now closed since I settled it for {$1000.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. My vehicle was totaled on XX/XX/XXXX and insurance made a lumpsum payment of {$10000.00} on XX/XX/XXXX to close out my loan. Before my accident, I made every monthly payment on time for $ XXXX/month until XX/XX/XXXX. After my insurance payment on XX/XX/XXXX, I still had a remaining balance with this creditor that I agree to settled the account in full of {$1000.00} paid on XX/XX/XXXX. I disputed my balance with XXXX stating that the balance was inaccurate and also that this creditor has never reported my balance accurately since I opened the account. When I received my dispute results back from XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX Credit Acceptance had reported the balance still inaccurate and also reported my account as 60 days past due! I have never missed a payment and also have made all my payments on time. I contacted Credit Acceptance on XX/XX/XXXX to advised the inaccurate reporting and ask them to show me where I missed a payment and a supervisor name XXXX advised me she does not show a missed payment on my acct. She did email my information to the Credit dept team and asked me to wait for 1 week to get a callback. I accepted this loan because this company was supposed to help me rebuild my credit and instead all they have done is report my information inaccurately to affect my credit negatively. I don't understand how is that they can report false information and there's no penalty to the creditor but as for me as a consumer I will be affected negatively. This reporting of 60 days late has a huge negative impact on my credit. I agree to settle this account and close it out so I can get into another vehicle unfortunately that is not the case now since they have falsely reported a payment missed 60days late on my report that will cause me to not be able to get into another vehicle.

To whom it may concern, the purpose of my letter is to discuss the predatory lending practices of Credit Acceptance Corporation. I purchased a XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX XXXX located in XXXX Indiana. The loan documents were in a touch screen table. The employee going through the documents rushed through them and failed to discuss the {$1200.00} extended warranty that was added to the loan contract. About a week of having the vehicle I noticed it had been added. I called the dealership about this and was told the reason was because I did not put enough money down. Neither the sales representative nor the financing agent discussed this with me at the time I made the loan. In XXXX, I called asking to remove the extended warranty because I figured I had paid enough to no longer require it and was told by customer service that I wouldnt get a refund because the time was about to end for the 2 year warranty. I explained that I never wanted it and the reason why it to have my loan. The representative I spoke with said all I had to do was to call them and they would have removed it. So I was lied to and charged {$1200.00} at 22 % interest for a product that I did not request and was dishonestly added. Also, in XXXX the vehicle was repossessed, however there was no written communication from Credit Acceptance Corporation regarding the past due amount and what was required to bring my account current and their intent to repossess the car. The tow truck came and picked it up and was quickly moved to the XXXX auction lot. I redeemed the vehicle picking it up I discovered while it was in their possession the vehicle had been riffled through, the front passenger tire was flat and the spare tire kit was stolen. I started a new payment plan and although I was paying according to their terms they continued to report my account late to the credit bureaus. I recently filed a dispute with XXXX and they did not investigate the company fraudulent reporting, They accepted the creditors report but did not dig into their actual company policies. I have a 22 % interest rate I can not refinance because they refuse to correct the reporting

On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX I went to XXXX XXXX because I needed a reliable car. I spent approximately 6 hours at the dealership that day, at one point leaving to pick up my XXXX XXXX XXXX at preschool and returning. I still had not seen the XXXX XXXX XXXX that I was informed would be the only car I would qualify for. At 7 pm, desperate to get out of there, go home and fee myself and my son, I was told the paperwork was ready to sign and I would be on my way. I had no idea what I was getting into, who the loan was through or even what the car looked like!! I felt like i had no other options at this point so I signed the papers and went out to see the car I had just agreed to pay $ XXXX for 48 months@29.9 % interest rate. I was sick to discover this car was going to need new tires among many other things. I felt like there was nothing I could do so I did my best to make the payments but it was impossible. On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX I contacted Credit Acceptance to explain what was going on and try to get lower payments by removing some of the add on packages that are very unnecessary. Unfortunately, instead of being able to do anything I intended, the woman was extremely rude and wanted to know where I was, where the car is at, what times I leave because they 're looking to take my car. I was told that if I could not come up with over {$800.00}, my car would be gone. She then suggested I borrow the money. I have no one to borrow money from so she said I needed to come up with at least {$410.00} by the end of the day. I ended up overdrawing my account to avoid my car being taken away while I was grocery shopping. I was transferred to another woman who wanted to withdraw another {$410.00} in 3 days. my requests to lower the payments, remove packages or anything to help make the payment affordable were just flat out ignored, not even acknowledged. They are completely unwilling to hear why I am unable to pay an outrageous amount for a car that is not even close to being worth that. They want to repossess the car and that is it. I want to keep the car, pay for it and improve my credit but this company is definitely not helping with that in any way at all.

I have only lived on the mainland for XXXX years. I co-signed on a loan for a friend for a car loan and she later had health problems and was unable to make any payments, she left the united states so the car became my issue. I was not familiar with this process, the sales man was very nice but did not explain things well. I signed a paper giving authorization for electronic signatures. As he rushed through the documents, everything seemed ok and not a big deal. Just click here to agree ..... It was only after I became responsible for the payments I learned what I had actually agreed to do. I felt the salesman rushed over this, I did not understand the process. I am upset at the extra fees that were charged for the extended warranty and GAP insurance, these were not fully explained ; the salesman was more interested in selling a car than making sure I understood how serious an auto loan is and the full responsibility I was agreeing to as a co-signer. I can not make the payments it is simple. The original value of the car was {$10000.00}, {$9900.00} after a down payment but with the interest rate of 22.99 %, the loan was $ XXXX {$12000.00} in interest charges! The balance today is {$13000.00} after XXXX years of payments, the car is only worth XXXX or XXXX XXXX dollars. I called XXXX XXXX, they would not do anything and refused to discuss any options telling me only that I could try to refinance. They would not consider lowering the interest rate, lowering the payments or removing the extra fees. I can see online a complaint was filed against credit acceptance for exactly the problems I experienced. I felt pressured into products I did not need and for sure did not understand, I am unable to make payments and can not refinance. I feel trapped into this loan and there is nothing I can do. I am not sure I can ever pay this off and if I do, the car will be old and I may have nothing at the end of it all. I did try to refinance the loan but was told I need a co-signer but I was surprised the interest rate would have been much lower. How can that be? Trying to refinance made me feel taken advantage of on the original interest rate.

You are in direct violation of FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 5 ). Negative re-aging debt on a credit report is changing the delinquency status of an account to fool the credit bureaus into thinking its more recent than it really is, which is what you are doing by reporting the account as such and updating it monthly. I am very well versed in credit law and the practice of re-aging accounts. As you are no doubt aware, a collection is tied to the original account before it is charged off.You report that this account was opened - and therefore you are re-aging this account, which is illegal - so you are in violation of the FCRA, with fines of { {$1000.00} } per incident. I am requesting that you investigate this matter under the FCRA : * FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 8 ) Ability of Consumer to Dispute Information Directly with Furnisher * ( E ) Duty of person after receiving notice of dispute. After receiving a notice of dispute from a consumer pursuant to subparagraph ( D ), the person that provided the information in dispute to a consumer reporting agency shall -- * ( i ) conduct an investigation with respect to the disputed information ; * ( ii ) review all relevant information provided by the consumer with the notice ; * ( iii ) complete such person 's investigation of the dispute and report the results of the investigation to the consumer before the expiration of the period under section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) within which a consumer reporting agency would be required to complete its action if the consumer had elected to dispute the information under that section ; and * ( iv ) if the investigation finds that the information reported was inaccurate, promptly notify each consumer reporting agency to which the person furnished the inaccurate information of that determination and provide to the agency any correction to that information that is necessary to make the information provided by the person accurate. In addition to the investigation, I am going to have to insist that you remove this illegal account from my 3 credit reports ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) or you should expect an intent to sue in the mail, because I will have no choice but to take legal action.

The attached police reports tells what happened. When I filed the police report I didn't know that the suspect had also stolen my Social Security Card, Birth Certificate, and state issued ID along with the other goods. I did not know about credit as I didn't have any need. I had bad credit from credit cards that I had in college and thought my credit was so bad that no creditor would even give me credit. In XX/XX/XXXXI was interested in the possibility of purchasing a house so I went to credit company to help. I didn't sign on with the company until XX/XX/XXXX and thats when I first was made aware that my identity had been stolen. Not only the car loan but it was also a XXXX XXXX bill and some other items that was on my report that were not opened by me. The company filed disputes to all three bureaus. I had went to get a police report from XXXX county but I wasn't sure of the dates of the first incident. Two of the three credit bureaus took the times off that were not my accounts but XXXX didn't take it off. Through XXXX I disputed twice. In XX/XX/XXXX I was in XXXX for the holidays and I went to get a copy the of the police report I initially filed and filed another police report about my stolen identity. I sent this information to XXXX and I contacted Credit Acceptance. Credit Acceptance said they would send me a fraud kit and never did. XXXX even with the police reports did not remove the account. Then I received a letter from Credit Acceptance that says it was no fraud. Im very frustrated my interest rates are sky high and I have been denied several times because of this account. Can you please help me. Thanks XXXX XXXX

I reached out to the credit acceptance in XX/XX/XXXX, when I lost my job to ask them was there anything I could do to as far as my payments, I was making my payment twice a week {$270.00}, before I lost my job. In XXXX XXXX, I accepted another job, but I still made my payment as agreed. I lost my job in XX/XX/XXXX, didnt received unemployment, didnt receive pandemic pay, and I reached out to them and explained everything that was going on. I had another job offer, but contracted XXXX and wasn't able to except the job. I was out of work for 5months. I started back to work in XXXX, and I reached out to them and let them know what I had went back to work, and I could pay XXXX a week to get me caught up. They weren't reporting to the credit bureau, at that time, I'm {$2000.00} and some odd dollars behind on my car payment, which makes it 4 months. I have made my payments as agreed thus far, but they are reporting I am 30 days late for XXXX, and 30 days late for XXXX. I know I am behind, I asked if they had any types of programs to help me to make my account current. They told me no. I asked if I refinanced the car because it's not only affecting my credit, but my husbands as well, because he is on the car loan as well. They told me that I couldn't refinance with them, I would have to try an outside lender, or my bank. Well with late payments no one is going to refinance it anyway. So I pay {$180.00} a week, which is {$720.00} a month, and my regular payments are {$550.00} so only {$170.00} over, I wouldn't be caught up until XXXX of XXXX. If I could make more payments, or just pay the past due i would, but right now I cant. The {$180.00} a week is breaking me, but I need a vehicle. I just don't want the late payments to be on my credit or on my husbands credit, because he is trying to purchase a home for us, and the late payment are affect it really bad. I work a letter, to Credit acceptance, to see if they would remove the late payments, I don't see that they have been removed. I have reached out to them, and they still dont have any other means of trying to help me resolve the debt without affecting my credit. Please Help.

My XXXX XXXX XXXX is financed through Credit Acceptance where I am the cosigner as I had to get my XXXX-year-old father to sign as principal after finding out I am the principal on my son 's XXXX XXXX truck I cosigned a few years earlier. This was done without my knowledge or approval ; I mean I will cosign for my kids but NEVER the principal signee but that 's another story. Since XXXX of XXXX after being contacted by my Dad that he was forced to make XXXX payments on this account to keep it current. At the time, I had missed XXXX XXXX XXXX payment & another one was n't due until the XXXX of XXXX XXXX. Okay, thanks Dad, paid him back & set up my automatic payment again. Credit Acceptance took another payment in XXXX so it was really ahead, then XXXX in XXXX on the XXXX & then the XXXX. I called in XXXX as I 'm a XXXX & can not afford their mistakes. They blamed this on having XXXX separate accounts set up even though they both came for the same & original bank account. I received a call on XXXX XXXX, XXXX where I was told I was again a payment behind ; they did not take XX/XX/XXXX payment for some reason even though these were once again submitted in XXXX XXXX. I made arrangements for their automatic payment representative to set this up once again, even being read their disclosure authorizing this. I also made sure all my info was correct as my father 's diagnosis of familiar XXXX XXXX XXXX was confirmed & wanted to be sure they had everything accurate. I stupidly enough thought all was well until Sunday evening, XXXX XXXX, XXXX ; when the repossession man was at my door to get the XXXX in the garage. Thinking everything was just a misunderstanding, I let them take it as I was also under the impression I had no other choice ... this money was just sitting in my bank account so it was no problem getting it caught up once Credit Acceptance was opened on Monday morning but, this came with a {$330.00} loss I am told is my fault for not making sure the payments were actually drafted. I 'm thinking, XXXX more payments & they know the principal signee has XXXX XXXX who was also NEVER contacted. This seems like a scam to me!

I, the consumer, purchased a XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I made a down payment of {$2800.00}. I paid {$400.00} for insurance before I could leave the car lot. I have been making payments in the amount of {$290.00} for the past XXXX months ( I have not missed a payment ). After learning of my consumer rights, I was not provided with the type of notice of my rights to recission under the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), 15 USC 1601et.Seq this is required by Federal Law. Upon reviewing my contract, obligations, and rights as a natural person operating in commerce, I noticed that there are several violations present which nullifies the contract pursuant to 12 CFR 1026.3 named Truth in Lending. Per the congressional finding of TILA as well as my due diligence, " It is the purpose of this subchapter to assure a meaningful disclosure of credit terms so that the consumer ( me ) will be able to compare more readily the various credit terms available to me and avoid the uniformed use of credit during the consummation of the contract. '' Furthermore, according to the Truth in Lending Act 15 USC 1605, my down payment and insurance should have been included in my finance charge, which is all I needed to complete the contract. There should NOT have been any cash exchange after the use of my social security number ( which is by law my credit card ), that constitutes as unauthorized use of a credit card once I entered into a consumer credit transaction. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX did not disclose my right to rescind. This being the case, pursuant to 15 USC 1635, I have the right to rescind my initial consent to pursue the terms of my contracts. I conclude this complaint with a demand for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to return my initial down payment of {$2800.00} and all monthly cash payments totaling about {$11000.00} I have made since they have failed to mention that my finance charge was all I needed to complete the deal and that the cash payment was only of benefit to them. 15 USC 1635 ( b ) ( F ). I demand that XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX return my down payment and other cash payments made within 20 days of this notice by law.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I decided to refinance my car. I paid {$680.00} to Credit Acceptance Corporation. This was the difference in the actual value of my XXXX XXXX XXXX and the l balance with the lender at the time, Credit Acceptance Corporation. My credit union paid off the remaining balance. The transaction was seamless. I refinanced my car and the first payment has been deducted from my checking account with my credit union. On XX/XX/XXXX, I decided to make sure my mortgage payment had processed. While checking my account, I noticed that {$390.00} had been deducted by Credit Acceptance Corporation. I called and spoke to a nice young lady named XXXX. I told her about my dilemma, explaining that I did not want my mortgage payment and several other charges to bounce due to their mistake. Although she was very sympathetic, she said that she would need documentation from me, that it could be a lengthy process, and that it would be quicker for me to contact my credit union to have them dispute it. She confirmed that my account was paid off and that the payment was deducted anyway. She was just doing her job, and I understand that. But it left me, as a consumer in the cold. By the grace of God, I did have a few extra dollars to keep my mortgage from returning unpaid. It is automatically deducted from my checking account each month. But what If I had no other resources? This should not happen to anyone. It shows negligence on behalf of Credit Acceptance Corporation. Now I have to wait 5-10 business days for the funds to be disputed and restored to my account through my credit union. I am grateful that I had the extra funds to make up for the shortfall, but now I do not have access to that money during a pandemic. That is not fair. Not only do I want my funds refunded, but I also would like a letter on CAC letterhead apologizing for their mistake and promising that they have taken steps to keep this from ever happening again. Best Regards, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX processed my car refinance flawlessly. Their name should not be mentioned in anything published on line. This is strictly between me and CAC.

Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to file a formal complaint against Credit Acceptance Corp regarding the handling of my vehicle purchase and subsequent repossession in XXXX. I believe that the company 's actions have caused me significant financial hardship, and I request your assistance in resolving this matter. My name is XXXX XXXX, and I reside at XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, MI XXXX. In XXXX, I purchased a vehicle from Credit Acceptance Corp. However, to my dismay, the vehicle was repossessed in XXXX. Since then, I have been in communication with the company, requesting a financially reasonable offer of settlement. Unfortunately, Credit Acceptance Corp has repeatedly refused to provide such an offer. Compounding my frustration, I recently discovered that Credit Acceptance Corp has begun garnishing my wages in XXXX. This sudden action has only exacerbated my financial difficulties, particularly considering the prolonged period of negotiation and lack of resolution from the company 's side. Furthermore, I am aware that Credit Acceptance Corp is currently under investigation for similar behavior. This knowledge raises concerns about the company 's practices and underscores the urgency of my complaint. In light of the above, I kindly request the following : 1. Immediate cessation of all garnishments from my wages, as this has caused severe financial strain. 2. Thorough investigation into Credit Acceptance Corp 's handling of my case, specifically regarding their refusal to offer a financially reasonable settlement and their delayed initiation of garnishment. 3. Appropriate financial compensation for the hardships I have endured, taking into account the prolonged negotiations and the company 's alleged misconduct. I trust that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau will take my complaint seriously and work towards a fair resolution. I have attached supporting documentation, including relevant correspondence and evidence of the ongoing investigation into Credit Acceptance Corp. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to a prompt response and a satisfactory resolution. Yours faithfully, XXXX

This Loan was offered under false pretenses. I am writing to file a complaint regarding the exorbitant charges associated with my car loan credit acceptance, which has placed a significant financial burden on me and has negatively impacted both my credit report and personal life. I urge you to investigate this matter and take appropriate action to rectify the situation. I entered into an agreement with Credit Acceptance on a car loan on XX/XX/XXXX XXXX was sold a car for {$17000.00} and Charged a 22.99 % APR which turned my XXXX car into a {$31000.00}. Credit Acceptance as well as the dealership sold me a car that had faulty breaks. According to XXXX, the car had 3 recalls because of this issue. the car had 3 owners before me and was involved in several car accidents before me. I have taken the car to mechanics for the faulty breaks over 4 times. When buying this car I was not provided a car fax at the dealership which could have prevented all of this had I known. in XXXX because of this faulty break I was in a car crash that nearly took my life. I was unable to recover the car and till this day I am being over charged for a car that I no longer have, and I no longer know its whereabouts. I am also being charged late fee 's on this car. I believe I was taking advantage of not only by the dealership but also by Credit acceptance. I believe I am a victim of predatory lending which is Illegal in the state of NJ where I originally got the car from and in the state of new York where I live. The stress of constantly worrying about payments, which is constantly dropping my credit score, and experiencing a decline in my creditworthiness has taken a toll on my mental and emotional well-being. I am seeking your assistance in rectifying this unjust situation. I kindly request that you investigate the terms and conditions of my car loan agreement and take appropriate action against Credit Acceptance for their predatory lending practices. I believe that such practices not only exploit vulnerable consumers but also undermine the principles of fair lending and consumer protection. I kindly request the following actions be taken.

On XXXX XXXX, XXXX I started a loan for a used XXXX XXXX XXXX. I paid the balance that was a total of around {$11000.00} down to {$3800.00} my last payment was XX/XX/XXXX. The monthly payment was {$300.00} for a total of four years. I contacted the business because the amount paid down was incorrect. Suddenly, it had increased by a few thousand dollars. The loan was through a company called Credit Acceptance. I was told by their customer service line to just continue making the payments as normal and that they would start a ticket to correct the information. I continued to call but I was given the same answer over and over. Eventually, they told me that it was interest but that was incorrect. I then decided to check the customer service reviews on the BBB website and there were a ton of disputes. I stopped making the payments because the debt paid down increased once again. Their customer service was not only poor but I dealt with people who were very rude and who threatened to take possession of my vehicle the day a payment is late. I spent hours and hours attempting to resolve the situation and in the end I was at a loss. Fast forward to after I halted the payments and according to my credit score I owe {$9400.00} and it keeps increasing even though it is in the " closed, charged off, '' status. I get phone calls, sometimes multiple times a day, from companies that claim they work for Credit Acceptance. They're rude, I've had threats of garnishing wages and multiple continued calls at early times in the morning. I was going surrender the vehicle a long time ago but after I saw the price increasing I asked what could happen and I was told that the price would continue to increase until I paid it off entirely. So, I was stuck. Surrender the vehicle and continue making payments even though the amount would increase or keep the vehicle, never drive it, and continue to receive harassing calls and watch the amount increase on my credit report ... What do I do? No matter what I've been told that the amount I owe will increase. So, I'll never pay off the owned amount and I've lost the use of a vehicle.

It was Sunday XXXX XXXX. I received a call at XXXX XXXX from XXXX. It was from Credit Acceptance, the lien holder on my vehicle. I answered the call, but there was no response and then I was hung up on. I called immediately back, and was quickly connected to a representative. I was asked to verify my account, and I gave them my name, and my address, but then they asked for ANOTHER piece of information to verify ( for XXXX purposes ). I questioned this, because they originally called me, threby meaning they would have to do outbound XXXX requirements. They started to argue with me, and I never provided the additional information because I was mad, and because they started to argue with me about the process. While this was going on, the rep started to talk about the specifics of my loan, the fact that I was overdue, and that he needed to collect payment at that very moment because there is no grace period on the note. It states right inside the note that there is a 15 day grace period before it is considered late and collection proceedings are started. The thing that blows my mind about this is the fact that I had already sent out a payment automatically from my Bank account on Friday afternoon! It was removed from my checking account, and was waiting on Credit Acceptance to process it! However, they chose to have a representative Call me at XXXX on a SUNDAY morning as I was trying to drive to Church. Get your payment processors to work on Sunday while the banks are closed! I was incredibly offended by this nuisance, but more by the fact that the representative failed to properly verify my identity even by there own XXXX Controls! I am confident that I could call in again and not have my privacy protected adequately! This must stop because I am confident if this lack of regard for security happened to myself, a person whom has never missed a payment, I can only imagine it gets worse for those in collections, or those seeking to modify a loan. I would like my credit report to reflect that I had not missed any payments, and I would like the CFPB to investigate and redress my claim against this careless company.

We purchased an automobile from XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, and financed the auto loan through Credit Acceptance Corporation. We purchased the extended warranty. After driving the vehicle only XXXX miles, the engine went out. A mechanic communicated with the warranty company on the needed repairs. The warranty company refused to authorize ( we later found out the warranty company is owned by Credit Acceptance ). We contacted Credit Acceptance to see what our options were. We could not afford to make XXXX XXXX monthly payments AND pay a very costly engine repair bill, but if we didn't fix it, the vehicle was not driveable. We continued to make our monthly payments on time for months while this all dragged on, even while not being able to drive the vehicle in question. Credit Acceptance basically told us that we could either pay for the repairs or voluntarily give up the vehicle. They offered no other recourse or alternative solution. They told us to take it up with the car dealer, but by then, they had already closed and filed for bankruptcy. We ended up doing a voluntary reposession. We had to have the vehicle towed from the mechanic shop with the dissassembled engine in the back. They immediately turned around and resold the truck at auction for much less than fair market value. They then sued us. We got a lawyer, and the lawsuit was dismissed. We have disputed this on our credit report multiple times and they are unwilling to remove this from our report, which is affecting our ability to purchase a home. We had another loan with Credit Acceptance at the same time that was paid on time every month and eventually paid off. We attempted everything we could to resolve this and they refused to work with us, refused to honor their warranty, and the auto dealer went out of business and filed bankruptcy. So now, because we were unlucky enough to buy a lemon from an unscrupulous dealer with a loan from an unscrupulous lender, we can not buy a home. We spent thousands to pay an attorney to keep them from suing us, not to mention all the months we paid for the auto loan and insurance on a vehicle we could not drive.

Being a used car, I was having some car trouble with the electronics and seat sensors. Fell behind again, but notified the company and we agreed to make catch up payments again. Apparently it was put up to re-po and was Repossed for the 2 ND time. XXXX? Came back around paid again to get my car back. Emmeidiately, the calls. By this time I'm going crazy, thinking about how to stop this, I posted a blog on their website about how they call to much on the daily if u fall a little behind and if u don't answere thier harassing calls, they tow the vehicle at XXXX leaving u stranded and loose work witch equals loosing money. Which ultimately will be another late payment and another re -po # XXXX XXXX XXXX?

This loan from XXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX was taken out on an original title and also a car title loan. Which places a memorandum title under my name in the license bureau and occured wrong for a tow and repossession about the possession of the car. The tow place XXXX XXXX XXXX towed it and the lien holder picked up which to my understanding was the lien holder who's name was in the memorandum title with my name also on there as the owner bought for about XXXX but the auto loan was XXXX at the car lot in the contract. I have lost my contract and the memorandum title the date of purchase was XX/XX/. And I do not have possession of the vehicle. Because it was towed and is now in the lien holders possession in XXXX Ohio credit acceptance is in Michigan. For some reason I was not contacted about the repossession of the vehicle or the tow. So what was weird is that they picked up from the tow yard and has the lien holder doing so. But the repossession was supposed to go to XXXX XXXX I denie both the purchase and the memorandum title for only having put a down payment down. The repossession took place only because of one missed payment. Harassment came from the county court. And I don't know what happened but they took a driver 's license completely off the record before it was supposed to expire. I haven't heard anything about the car the loan or the reason my driver 's license was replaced plus someone is in possession of it the XXXX loan seemed like a car title loan scam. And plus identity theft because they would have to replace tags and they have been in title places taking off cars with original titles and it repeats about a XXXX XXXXXXXX I had like that could have been my fault on all three. They have wipes out my county record and no record of the spark so it seems wired about the loan from XXXX Ohio where I bought the car from. An extension of picking the car up went under I understand partly it's paid for but the title loan isn't from credit acceptance. There is civil claim attached to this I lost for my payments back for being in the middle of this loan on a car already bought.

On Friday, XXXX XXXX, 2022, my home was struck by lightning which started a house fire. As a consequence of the fire, my family and I were left XXXX and living at a XXXX. On Monday, XX/XX/2022 at XXXX XXXX EDT, I spoke with a representative of Credit Acceptance and explained the situation. I told them I would make a payment as soon as practicable. Later that day, robocalls and direct voice message calls began occurring from Credit Acceptance. On XX/XX/2022, I was advised to monitor calls made by Credit Acceptance and note the time and date. I was also advised to inform them again of my situation and clearly state that with regard to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, they should not contact me again for at least seven consecutive calendar days and to note the time and date of this conversation. Between XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/2022, Credit Acceptance placed thirteen calls to my phone, twelve of them occurring between XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. I spoke directly to a Credit Acceptance representative on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX EDT, once again explaining our current hardship situation. Calls began again at XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, less than 48 hours later. On XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX XXXX, I placed a call to Credit Acceptance and notified the representative that Credit Acceptance was violating the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act by willfully harassing me through sheer volume of calls, as well as placing repeated calls well within the seven-day window following a discussion about the debt. The representative stated that I would continue to receive calls until I paid the debt because it was how their system was set up and that it was company policy. I informed the representative on the recorded line that if I received another call in fewer than seven days, I would be lodging a complaint against Credit Acceptance. On XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX, I received a call from Credit Acceptance. I notified the representative that the call violated the seven day clause of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act 12 CFR 1006.14 ( b ) ( 2 ) ( ii ) and that I would be filing a complaint immediately.

In XXXX I went into the XXXX store in XXXX Indiana with my XXXX cousin, because she was looking to purchase a vehicle. I wasnt looking to purchase anything, because my vehicle was almost paid off I only had about {$300.00} dollars left and the truck was mine paid in full. The guy that was helping my son look for a vehicle, but then she decided not to buy from them. So the car sales man talked me into getting a vehicle, and I did the application an it came back that I needed a co-signer an he asked me if I knew anyone that would help me, and I said yes which is when I asked my grandma to and she said yes. Well I got approved with my grandma being the first one on the loan and me second. Not too long after that I found out that I was XXXX which the XXXX was XXXX XXXX, and I couldnt work so I went to the XXXX store to explain my situation to them, and they told me that I had to speak with the loan company which was credit acceptance and I did to inform them that I was voluntarily returning the vehicle due to me not being able to work because of my XXXX XXXX XXXX I ended up losing my house, and moving in with my grandmother with my XXXX XXXX XXXX So in XX/XX/XXXX I received by mail that I was being sued by them for the remainder of the balance of the vehicle after they sold it in auction for over {$9000.00} dollars. I was not served a court date by the company by law enforcement for any of the court dates. The only court date that I was given was for them to garnish my wages, and I attended the hearing and the lady that came said that she wasnt a lawyer, and asking me so many questions which I answered them honestly informed her that I could not afford to have my wages garnished due to me being the sole provider for my XXXX children and I take care of my grandmother too. She said that she would talk to the company about me making monthly payments that was on XX/XX/XXXX and I have yet to hear from the company. I feel like the XXXX store and the loaner knew that I would not be able to make the payments and talked me an my grandmother into a contract illegally targeting me and my grandmother.

I purchased a car XX/XX/2020 or around that time. With a extended warranty that most service department at major dealerships do not honor 3 weeks into the loan the motor blew I tried to used the warranty going in they claimed not to cover this or that so hey I was stuck with the out of pocket expenses. 2 month as later I received a call from XXXX XXXX XXXX and they said we have to replace your motor they contacted the warranty dept and they said we will pay 2 hours of the 12 hour labor but tear the motor down and we will send a inspector out. A day later I received a call and the guy said we stop working with this company because they failed to pay us several times on jobs we done. I contacted the dealership I purchased the car from and they told me to contact the back thats keep insisting I contact the warranty company that receive payment from me to them every time I pay my car note. They claim the warranty company didnt deny the loan but if the only person that could work on my car is a certified XXXX mechanic in which I would find only at a dealership could work on this car in which the company itself does not accept this warranty its useless and I explained over 10 times. The bank is scared to lose relationship with the dealer because they able to make 30 % or more interest off its customers. Now Im stuck in in the middle of do the right thing or profit off a company that been making us a lot of money ripping off consumers. Inspire of me losing my job and will be homeless once XXXX left the eviction hold I still managed to pay my note and insurance my kids missed XXXX. When this car broke down I was in the middle of no where stranded for two whole day with no food no water no phone because the area had no service. And all credit acceptance keep saying call the warranty department not once trying to contact the dealer to see why did the motor go out in 3 weeks as long as they get they 30 % and the dealership keep sending them business thats all they worried about. Its a pandemic and the bank is taking advantage to the fullest and would rather make a dollar then to satisfy consumers

On XX/XX/XXXX Credit Acceptance Corp. Canceled auto payments that had been reoccurring since XX/XX/XXXX for payments on a vehicle loan. I was not contacted or notified for two months. In XX/XX/XXXX once contacted I talked with a credit Acceptance Corp employee via telephone. I explained no payment should be missed because of the authorized auto payments that were set up to endure the length of the entire loan. She investigated the issue and told me verbally that yes it had been canceled by them and she stated she thought that was strange. However, if I did not pay 11?? ..dollars that my vehicle was already in repo. On principle and what I believe to be repetitive criminal business practices I cooperated with the repo. Upon credit acceptance auctioning the vehicle and including what I paid into the loan they made roughly XXXX dollars on a vehicle window priced at XXXX. Considering their shady practices I consider it a win for them. Yet, they have me in collections for an additional XXXX. This company has many negative reviews on XXXX, XXXX and I assume with your organization as well. Attached is a letter from credit acceptance stated that I had canceled via XXXX XXXX. I had no idea it even went through XXXX XXXX. What good sense financial institution would use a middle man to due transaction outside a bank. It would be much easier for a simple man like myself to call my back to end payments. Perhaps they use XXXX XXXX to allow for the gap to make these claims. I have heard that XXXX XXXX only runs two years of autopay continuously then it has to be reset up. I guarantee. Credit Acceptance not only knew this but uses it to reclaim and resell cars. Even if it was accidental the contract I signed authorized autopay for the entire 48 month duration of the loan and I never canceled the payments and never missed a payment. They canceled it or knew through all their previous dealings with XXXX XXXX the policies and procedures of XXXX XXXX to the extent they failed to notify me of such so that I could have avoided this mess and still have my vehicle that I loved! Thank you for you time.

I recently financed a car with credit acceptance Corp and I believe that I also was lead into a misleading loan. I am paying XXXX percent, {$420.00} a month for a used XXXX XXXX XXXX that at the time had XXXX miles. When I tried to buy it at the dealership I remember it saying XXXX. I had put down XXXX and I still have to pay XXXX for XXXX years. After reading they are being sued in NY by deceptive loans, I believe I was wronged as well. And want my story heard as well. My loan is XXXX months, and the interest has made the car over XXXX dollars. I have already paid for XXXX months and the loan hasnt even gone down to XXXX which is apparently the cost of the car afterwards when I signed. I did not have great credit at the time so I believed that maybe the price changed for me alone because of that. Understood the interest because of my credit but could not understand how I could put down XXXX still pay XXXX and for XXXX years. And how a car that is XXXX blue book value of XXXX XXXX ended up being XXXX and I will be stuck with this loan for a long time. I also believed the mileage had played a part in the cost but the price did change after I initiated buying it. I am able to afford it yet is taking way too much of my income. at the time I did not pay rent or bills and now that I do I worry about not being able to afford my car. I always thought this loan was confusing but I do also feel like as a first time buyer I was mislead. And that I just took their word that my credit was so bad. But it seems like my Loan has barely gone down even though I continue to pay XXXX each month. I would like to be reached out to in regards to this loan and lawsuit as I believe Im another case against them. I was not sure who to contact but I am looking into contacting the NY attorneys who brought this lawsuit to light. XXXX XXXX can reach out to me but I will probably not take their word as they do not seem like a good company and have been sued before. Im sure they will just try to tell me this is right even though I feel its wrong and I would like someone else to reevaluate the loan.

My name is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX a federally protected consumer, and I am making this complaint against Credit Acceptance Corporation for committing aggravated identity theft. I have never given Credit Acceptance Corporation any permission to use any of my identifying information to commit fraud by contacting me about an alleged debt that claim I owe. I am aware that in accordance with Article 9, the assignment of a defaulted note is illegal. Both the assignee and the assigned are both liable for violations under 15 U.S. Code 1692e12. I have never received any documentation requesting validation from Credit Acceptance Corporation before they committed multiple violations under the FCRA and the FDCPA by furnishing this alleged debt to my consumer report, including but not limited to, 15 U.S. Code 1692d4 which the FTC defines as debt parking. If Credit Acceptance can not provide me with proof such as a tracking number that they attempted to lawfully validate this debt with me, the consumer, prior to furnishing it to my consumer report, this has been a fraudulently furnished account with forethought and malice as an attempt to bring harm to me and my financial reputation. I am legally refusing to pay this debt pursuant to 1692c ( c ). I am demanding a cease and desist of all illegal activity, any communication and collection activity, of this and any alleged debts until Credit Acceptance Corporation can provide me with sufficient documentary evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay them. If this documentary evidence can not be produced and Credit Acceptance continues its collection efforts, I will file for litigation for actual damages caused and they will be held criminally liable for aggravated identity theft pursuant to 18 U.S. Code 1028A, extortion, theft by deception, securities fraud, and mail fraud. Upon the receipt of the documents herein and of this notice, you are hereby notified Pursuant UCC 1-202f. Your prompt attention and response are both requested and required.

I am disputing the balance of XXXX of a XXXX XXXX XXXX, by credit acceptance. I have been in constant communication with the Credit Acceptance Corporation since the purchase of the vehicle in XXXX. Immediately following the purchase, the vehicle engine went up and had to be replaced. Following shortly after engine going up, the radiator went up on the vehicle. I have been trying to give possession of the vehicle back to credit acceptance since XXXX. Am have expressed numerous times that the vehicle was a lemon and that they could come pick the vehicle up from a location given because I no longer wanted to deal with the trouble. They told me several times that they would pick the vehicle up over the course of the year of XXXX. They then told me that they were not interested in possession of the vehicle. I at that point took the tags and insurance off of the vehicle and stated again that they could come pick the vehicle up from the given location. They failed to do so. Then they sought out legal representation from the law firm of XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX to try to get me to pay a portion of the owed amount of the vehicle. I sent a response via certified mail to their law office stating the history I had with their client, the vehicle and how I tried repeatedly to negotiate with them. It was taken off my credit report shortly after and I hadnt heard anything since XXXX of XXXX. Now they have put the amount for the full price of the vehicle back on my credit report because the law firm is stating that they couldnt get in touch with me since XX/XX/XXXX. They have had my email address, cell phone and address at all times since dealing with me on this issue, so I know that the reason if not being able to contact me is a lie on their part. I have tried to no avail to handle this issue civilly with Credit Acceptance. At this time I have already disputed their claim to the XXXX company to have it removed completely from my credit report for good. They advised me to file a complaint with consumer finance so that what Im doing. Thank you for reading over this complaint.

I purchased a Jeep wrangler in XXXX of this year, the payment is automatically drafted from my checking account with XXXX Bank on the XXXX of every month. In XXXX I called Credit Acceptance Corp, asking if I could change the draft date due to an unexpected emergency. I asked to see if the contracted could be changed to later in the month due date because that is when I receive my Social Security and I would not have to worry about being late. They stated that there was n't any way to change the payment date in the contract and I was told that there was a XXXX day grace period after which a {$17.00} late charge would have to be paid. Since my next Social Security Check would be coming in on the XXXX of XXXX the payment would be {$370.00}. I set up this amount to be drafted from my account on the XXXX XXXX to prevent any XXXX late payment on my credit. When I investigated by calling Credit Acceptance legal department, I was told that my bank told them that there was insufficient fund to make this payment on XXXX XXXX. XXXX See attached online bank information showing no attempt was made by Credit Acceptance to draft the owed amount and my bank verifies that they did not have any ACH payment request from Credit Acceptance Corp any time during that week. ) On XXXX XXXX Credit Acceptance Corp reported both myself and Co-borrower XXXX days late which has had devastating effects on XXXX our credit reports. Also I received a letter from dated XXXX XXXX, 2015, that mis-lead me to believe that as long as the payments were all up to date by XXXX XXXX my account would be considered never in Default. The Account is paid to date, they were able to take the XXXX Payment out and I had my bank pay them directly for any pass due to avoid any other payment recording errors. I did everything I could to make the XXXX payment before it was XXXX days late and Credit Acceptance did not keep their part of our agreement. I am requesting that the XXXX day late reporting should be removed from my report and should be showing as paid as agreed on both mine and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

I have a vehicle loan with XXXX XXXX XXXX from XXXX of 2020. When I took out the loan the price started at around {$22000.00}, I put {$5700.00} down, after the taxes and tags, the finance was at $ XXXX. At 72 months. The dealer swindled me and talked so fast I could barely understand what he was saying or doing, but I had no vehicle and and a credit score at roughly 600 with no co-signer. So I agreed to whatever the terms were. I was explained my payment would be over {$500.00} a month and I was only making {$1900.00} a month at the time, so I tried to find a better job so I could pay it off quicker and be able to afford my life. Just as soon as I found a new job covid swept in. I worked from home a lot with XXXX kids, and eventually was no longer able to keep up with some payments due to lack of work. I explained to the company what was going on and they kept saying theyd notate the account and pay what I could. I missed full payments for about 4 solid months, and I continued to contact each month for an update. As soon as I began work again, I called to schedule a promise, and the day of payment they repossessed the vehicle in the night. It took me 7 days to get the vehicle back even though it had been released already. I spent another {$950.00} for a rental for those seven days so I could get to work. I asked what my loan payoff was at this time and they tell me its $ XXXX!!!!!!!!! I said put {$5700.00} down ; Ive paid {$520.00} a month since XXXX of 2020 other than those few months and somehow my loan is still at almost {$22000.00}?? Something sounds completely off here. Then the rep proceeds to tell me I was charged {$14000.00} finance surcharge that I wasnt aware of and was told my APR was raised and I was never given the rate. At this point I dont even know what Ive paid to interest or principal or how theyre calculating it. All I know is now I owe {$740.00} a month for 24 to bring whatever fees and interest current from being late for 4 months straight. This company is completely predatory and they are not here for their customers.

Good evening, and how are you? This is going on for almost 90 days and i haven't received any responses from my previous disputes about this Credit Acceptance. This account was actually deleted or removed from XXXX and XXXX due to several violations on reporting but XXXX continues to ignore my request for deletion. It's illegally re-aging my account because it's reporting incomplete, unverifiable, and inaccurate information. There is no way that this could've been verified or looked into. Again, Im not sure who to take this to anymore, but Ive disputed this account several times with both the original creditor and the credit reporting agencies accordingly and Ive attached everything to support my dispute. However, I continue to received a pre-template letter sent to me that its been verified and it REMAINS. How is it possible that this was verified if you continue to report incomplete, inconsistent, inaccurate, and unverifiable information on this account and a thorough and in-dept investigation. Ive disputed and I havent received anything as such, but it continues to be reported in violation of the consumer laws. Continues to report wrong balance, incorrect date of first delinquency, wrong date of last active, inconsistent payment status, high balance and actual balance is questionable, etc. I believe that section 609 of FCRA also allows me to ask for detail information about the account and how you indeed investigated and your detail process. Im extremely upset and shocked about the way this charge-off account is reporting on my credit report which continues to report with incomplete, inconsistent and unverifiable Info. How can you honestly say that you verified as it being accurate? This was NOT verified! I am requesting this investigation under the authorization of the Fair Credit Reporting Act Section 623. ( a ) ( 8 ) ability of consumer to dispute information directly with the furnisher. What I am disputing : The account you have reported to the three credit bureaus. My basis for this dispute is that I have no knowledge of this account.

Updated and new information in relation to CFPB Complaint XXXX response letter attached to this complaint. My initial complaint also stated that Credit Acceptance is in Violation of FAIR CREDIT REPORTING ACT 15 USC 1681 ( 2 ) ( a ) ( i ) Exclusions from a consumer credit report clearly states : ( XXXX ) EXCLUSIONS Except as provided in paragraph ( 3 ), the term consumer report does not include ( A ) Subject to section 1681is-3 of this title any ( i ) report containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report. In response the my privacy rights being violated Credit Acceptance has not sent me an annual privacy notice disclosure for XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX this violates XXXX XXXX : I would like to ask when I am supposed to receive my privacy disclosures as a customer/consumer? I would ask that if you are in violation not to ignore my request and just answer to what you can slide around without answering please give me the information I am asking for? Delivering Privacy Notices You must deliver your privacy notices to each consumer or customer in writing, or, if the consumer or customer agrees, electronically.

1 ) On XXXX/XXXX/2015 received a letter in the mail that my monthly payment has gone up to {$220.00} form {$210.00} and my payment would be late if not received now by the XXXX instead of the XXXX.No notice as to why. 2 ) Originally the loan was in my mothers name and mine, the payment was set for auto-pay out of her account.She past away in XXXX 2015. I contacted them and the bank immediately to let them know, and stop the auto pay on my mothers XXXX account. At that time I requested ( since I would be taking over the payments now ) that the payment due date be adjusted to accommodate my banking. They told me that they would have to finish processing my mothers death certificate first and then supervisor could assist me with that. When I called back and I was transferred to a supervisor XXXX he advised that they do not change the due date for any reason. And stated my contract stated that my payment was due on the XXXX of every month and I have a 10 day grace period so if my payment has to be received on or before the XXXX, or it would be considered late. I asked him considering that my mother was the primary on the loan and she pasted away, and was a good customer. If they would consider making an exception & adjust the payment due date. They said no. I also mentioned to them that I would also need a payment booklet, I still have n't received a payment booklet yet, and I always pay on or before the XXXX. I feel like this company is not following fair consumer practices. I feel like they are trying to make it look like I 'm making late payments when they are paid on time. They are not providing me with proper payment information as stated in their contract. To this date I still have n't received a payment booklet from them. It seems like they are trying to make it look like I 'm late on my payments. In order to make it look like they would have the right to repo my car. I do not trust this company. I 've always been a good customer paying on time, and I feel like they are being dishonest & trying to take advantage of me/ ruin my credit.

Credit acceptance gave me issues while i was having so many problems with my old vehicle XXXX XXXX XXXX and when i made multiple calls in to let them be aware of my car trouble. I dealt with very bad mechanical issues with the vehicle very much and credit acceptance didnt show compassion nor empathy in regards to the vehicle credit acceptance customer care did nothing but complain and say rude things to me while threatening me with repossession if I didnt submit a payment while dealing with a broke down vehicle that my daughter had to use her insurance road side assistance to have a tow from North Carolina which was XXXX miles away from my home which cost {$150.00} to have it towed back home plus the alternator went bad and had to be replaced was {$200.00} just for the part and the labor was {$140.00}. When I purchased the vehicle back in XX/XX/XXXX the XXXX XXXX XXXX was already sick to the point not even three months down the road it had transmission issues and got replaced twice and when i found out about it being sick and notified XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX located at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Virginia XXXX they didnt want to help me out at first then i told them i would sue them then thats when the manager XXXX called me and set up my appointment to bring my vehicle in and i then notified credit acceptance that my car payment wouldnt be in til sometime in 2 weeks due to the fact i had to pay my deductible to get my vehicle worked on and had to pay an XXXX to get back in forth to work .. otherwise i would of had to risk being without transportation all together but all together i just seek justice on my situation due to the fact that the vehicle already was trouble from the start and ended up needing to replace all of my oxygen sensors, catalytic converter, alternator, rostors so with this being said i chose to Voluntarily surrender that vehicle cause of the lack of help by credit acceptance as well as too many issues with the vehicle where i kept having to be inconvenience and wasnt able to have an enjoyable vehicle that was being paid on.

Credit Acceptance sent a letter this month stating that they are going to take me off of their Covid 19 Protection Program starting XX/XX/XXXX and that any late payments, fees will be added to my credit report and that we could face repossession. Credit Acceptance took me off their Covid Protection Program back on XXXX of XXXX. They reported a total of 25 late payments and made calls and sent letters threatening to reprocess me and my husband 's vehicle. For 2 years we have struggled to make the monthly payments during Covid and have expressed this to Credit Acceptance without anything being done about it. It was only when I made a complaint to the CFPB back in XXXX of this year XXXX that something was done and they entered me into their Covid Protection Program for a couple months but now they are stating that fees, back pay and other monies are do. That they will be changing the way they report to the Credit Agencies to reflect back pay and could reprocess the vehicle. As a consumer I should be treated fairly. Credit Acceptance should give me the same amount of time in Covid 19 Protection as was given to other consumers, especially since I was initially enrolled in the Covid 19 Protection Program but was taken out by Credit Acceptance. The burden of not being protected from repossession for 2 years has put us behind on everything else including losing shelter. Credit Acceptance needs to grant us Credit Protection for 2 years since we should've been in the Covid 19 Protection Program starting XXXX XXXX. During Covid me and my husband are victims of predatory lending. This is unfair, deceptive and abusive practices, and we deserve restitution as customers. This is a violation of our rights 15 us code 45c states ( b ) Enforcement by the Federal Trade Commission ( 1 ) Unfair or deceptive acts or practices A violation of subsection ( a ) shall be treated as a violation of a rule defining an unfair or a deceptive act or practice under section 18 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( B ) of the Federal Trade Commission Act ( 15 U.S.C. 57a ( a ) ( 1 ) ( B ) ).

I have contacted this company regarding the vehicle that I financed through them. I tried to resolve the transmission troubles I had by asking Credit Acceptance to help me, but was rejected and told about using my extended warranty plan to take care of the issue. I decided to leave it alone with the financing company. Fast forward to XX/XX/2023. I called in asking what can be done now that the vehicle was no longer operating. I was given options and was told that someone would call me that Friday to discussion the options in further detail. By that evening, my van was towed. At first it was a mystery that left me awake all night wondering what happened. When I called Credit Acceptance, the rep stated that someone called them stating that my vehicle was abandoned and that they had to secure the vehicle or it would be impounded. I asked the rep who did it and I was told that she could not give me that information. I asked if the letter that being mailed out reflect the call and the person who made the call and received no response. I decided to contact everyone involved in this mystery. Unfortunately, I have not gotten any closer to an answer and I am still without a vehicle. This event caused me to possibly lose out on holding XXXX accountable for causing the vehicle to be inoperable. I nor the sheriffs office can get Credit Acceptance to answer questions. On top of that, Credit Acceptance sent me a certified letter stating that my van was repoed due to non-payment, but when I ask the rep about this, I was told that my account was not in repo status due to non payment. When I ask for a letter to reflect that, I am told that they cant do that. Instead of me receiving help from them, I have been bombarded by daily calls asking me to pay and retrieve the van. When I ask why are you calling me to pay, but you cant alert me when my van is reported abandoned?, I get stumbles and stutters. I want this matter to be resolved. I originally filed a complaint through the attorney generals office, but the complaint was forwarded to CFPB.

I got my XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX XXXX. When I purchased the vehicle they said the only bank I could use was credit acceptance. I was told that everything that was included with the loan had to be in it, such as warranty, service fees etc and that if I didn't agree to these extras I wouldn't be able to use credit acceptance as a lender. I then find out later that I had a choice. This loan ended up being much more than was disclosed when purchasing the vehicle. And because of these extra inflated costs it was hard to keep up on payments especially with outrageous late fees. I was in desperate need of a vehicle, they knew I would be unable to afford it but used my desperation to their advantage and convinced me otherwise. So I ended up defaulting, getting my car repossessed twice and the second time it was repossessed it was sold in auction for 3 times less than the blue book value of the car. They sold it in auction for XXXX dollars. And even after it was sold they are still adding interest to the loan making it even harder to get out of debt. Because of their tactics I lost my job, can't afford another vehicle because I am denied for every loan and am still to this day having a hard time keeping a job due to no vehicle and no reliable way to get to work. Within the first 2 weeks of purchasing the vehicle it ended up having a lot of issues making the vehicle so it couldn't be driven. I tried to use the service contract that I was duped into, and was denied for evert claim through them as well as the dealership that I purchased it from. This company is extremely rude when you try to reach out to them for support and they talk you down and tell you straight out that " you shouldn't have got a loan that you couldn't afford '' yet they add all these extra fees and make it seem like you have to get these extras to even be considered for a loan. They used the fact that I was poor, with poor credit and desperate. Credit Acceptance should not be allowed to continue this fraudulent behavior and should be shut down.

Once again this corporation is fraudulent. I recently submitted complaints with the XXXX attorney General office and CFPB about this. They have failed to send me my car title and down payment back. I also submitted a complaint to XXXX XXXX, a compliance analyst with credit acceptance on XX/XX/2023. This corporation and the car dealership emailed and mailed 5 pages of the contract that I have never seen, acknowledged, or signed. The car dealer had control of the computer the entire time and did submitted and signed the contracts without my consent. All debts are prepaid. Federal Reserve Act 16 section 2 states Any Federal Reserve bank may make application to the local Federal Reserve agent for such amount of the Federal Reserve notes hereinbefore provided for as it may require. Such application shall be accompanied with a tender to the local Federal Reserve agent of collateral in amount equal to the sum of the Federal Reserve notes thus applied for and issued pursuant to such application. Therefore, Credit Acceptance and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. took the application or contract my signature was forged on to and gained lawful money within the contract. The money came from my XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX, which means this car is paid off in full. I will not be paying you triple the money. You really think consumers are XXXX and don't know consumer law, but unfortunately I know and I will not allow you to take advantage of me. I am the CREDITOR, not you. You have not credited anything to me. I backed the demand for the money you received my XXXX XXXX XXXX, that only I am the beneficiary of. Please strap on your seat belt and be ready for this ride, because I will stop at nothing until I receive my car title and down payment back to me. I submitted a complaint to XXXX XXXX and she and XXXX XXXX have failed to respond within the 21 time frame I gave them, therefore I need that title and down payment sent to me asap at XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Please see the pdf file i have attached and read it to its fullest.

As of XXXX XXXX, 2016, I went to XXXX of XXXX XXXX, NJ to purchase as used vehicle. I was introduced to the XXXX XXXX vehicle that I am currently driving now by XXXX ( the dealer ), he introduced the vehicle as one with no problems, and WITHOUT AN " AS IS STICKER " on the vehicle, implying that the vehicle would be under a form of warranty. As of XXXX XXXX, 2016, I went to the dealership to fill out the forms to purchase the vehicle with the manager, and I was swarmed with documents that I had to sign, but later I realized that there was no CAR FAX document to give a history of the condition of the vehicle. Since then I have been calling them to get a copy of the CAR FAX, and I have been getting the run around because since I purchased this vehicle, which has only been one year and three months, I have had to pay over XXXX in repair fees, for parts on the vehicle that should n't be in need of repairs in such a short time. Also there was no AS IS sticker on the vehicle, so I was under the impression that I was under a form of warranty. I then had a professional mechanic inspect the chassy of this vehicle and discover that this vehicle has suffer major water damage, AS IF IT WAS IN A FLOOD. So in summation, I paid XXXX, as a down payment, on a vehicle that was listed at XXXX, but with all of the newly discovered damages, like THE DIFFERENTIAL TRANSFER CASING, MUFFLER PIPE, AND THE FOUR WHEEL DRIVE AXIL, note : items that a newly purchased vehicle should be in need of repair, Is only worth less than my down payment amount. And yet I still have not got a CAR FAX statement on the history of this vehicle, and with the documentation I was given with this vehicle there is no AS IS sticker, nor was there one posted on the vehicle when I first looked at the vehicle. Yet I was told that the vehicle was a purchase AS IS, and there is no warranty, after i discovered damage to the vehicle. All together I spent XXXX out of pocket for a used vehicle in which throughout the nature of the loan I still owe XXXX. THIS IS NOT FAIR ... ...

I went to a used car dealership XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX. The dealer XXXX XXXX, who went by XXXX, ran my credit which at the time was reporting in the very high 600s to the low 700s on multiple credit checks. I was told I had no auto loan score and that the only place that would accept me is credit acceptance. I received one of the highest apr rates, 22.99 % for a used car which gave me a XXXX interest rate. I called the company multiple times trying to understand how they came across the numbers but all I was told was that I had to speak to the dealer and when I did I was reverted back to credit acceptance. I was told Id be financing XXXX and was sat in front of a computer and told to type in initials wherever directed. I was told I needed to hurry so the loan could process and me being a first time dealership lease user I trusted the process. I legally did not sign any documents my initials were electronically typed in. I did not see anything about an apr rate nor was I told one in fact I had to ask for my paperwork due to the fact the dealer did not juts willingly give it to me and that is how I learned about the XXXX interest on my XXXX loan. When I called to ask if I could pay extra to my loan to try to decrease it I was told by the customer service that I could not pay extra to my loan itself u had to pay for both the loan and the interest. I also called to see if I could refinance with credit acceptance and of course they refused. I have had the car a little under 6 months and it has transmission problems and is out of commission. They will not negotiate my price nor take the vehicle back and relinquish my debt so I am out of a vehicle and my recently decent credit score will now be completely destroyed. I have been paying {$370.00} a month on time since XXXX. My outstanding balance was XXXX and not is at about XXXX. After reviewing the XXXX XXXX XXXX the car was only valued at about XXXX depending on the mileage which when leased was at XXXX. This dealer has had very many complaints as well as this company.

sorry my grammar is not 100 % accurate! Hi & To Whom It May Concern : How are you doing? Im not sure who to bring this up anymore, but I been dealing with the original dealership XXXX XXXX for the last 3-4 months in regards to a vehicle that was never on my possession. As I mentioned, I never took the delivery of the vehicle and its been on principal owner XXXX and XXXX dealership for day one due to mechanical issue. And now my credit report is all ruined because the principal owners never dealt with them on timely manner. Every time I called them, they kept saying that they dont have the money to send back to the bank to remove this from my credit report. Ive called the alleged bank Credit Acceptance several times and they stated in several occasion that once they receive the money from the Dealership that submitted the Credit Application they will go ahead and remove the tradeline from my credit report. Today, I look at my credit report again, it continues to report incorrect on my credit profile. It shows balance {$0.00}, however, its reflecting with derogatory mark, such as comments as settled-less than full balance, other bureau shows account legally paid in full for lass than the full balance, and XXXX reports as settlement accepted on this account or paid account/XXXX balance. As you can see on the pictures, I NEVER made the payment on this account. The dealership made the payment directly to the bank and you can see the check was made by them XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Therefore, this is causing me tremendous stress, and Im overwhelmed with lack of professionalism and blunt errors on my credit report which is costing me thousands in interest rate and fees. Please, I ask again, resolve this from my credit report either CORRECT as Paid NEVER late or remove the entire trade line from my credit report as promised. -- I need the company to remove this tradeline from my credit report as I never made the payment, and never took the delivery of the vehicle. Please delete this tradeline from my credit report.

Wednesday XX/XX/XXXX I paid Credit Acceptance XXXX to redeem my repossessed XXXX XXXX XXXX. I spoke with the redemption dept who set up a payment plan to bring the account current. The next payment was due XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of XXXX give or take a few cents. I was n't advised there 's no grace period and I made the payment on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX after talking with a representative that called me on XX/XX/XXXX explaining the arrangement is no longer valid and can not be reset even if I made the payment with them. They wanted to know why I could n't make the payment on time. I explained to rep ( her ) that " I stopped working XX/XX/XXXX. I had an unemployment claim already opened so when I reported my unemployment it was attached to the claim that expires on XX/XX/XXXX after which you have to file a new claim even if you 're are n't working. Well I started a job on XX/XX/XXXX so my new claim is only for 1 week of unemployment. After waiting 30 days for the claim to be approved I was told because I 've never received payment under the new claim, it wo n't payout the 1 week until I report unemployment again. That was {$500.00} I needed and was counting on to help catch up all my bills. '' I have never heard of a no grace period, no was it explained and there 's no paperwork explaining the repayment plan and the consequences. All these arrangements are done via the telephone. On XX/XX/XXXX I called Credit Acceptance to confirm the payment and was told by the rep that I have to pay XXXX every two weeks until the account is brought current. Right now the account is maybe 30 days late meaning I owe 1 payment. I asked to make a payment on XX/XX/XXXX which is my payday and he stated he can not make any arrangements past the date of XX/XX/XXXX I made the payment today for XXXX and they are still threatening to pick the vehicle up every 2 weeks. The only way to get back on a payment plan is basically let them pick the vehicle up and then pay the fees and costs for the repossession and I they will work something out for you.

I have an auto loan with Credit Acceptance Corporation. I advised the company that I am unable to make my payments on the XXXX of each month and needed to change it to later in the month so that I can pay my rent and other bills on time. I was told the due date ca n't be permanently changed but I can request a due date adjustment each month if I need one. I have been adjusting my due dates a day before they are due to ensure payment is receive on the adjusted due date. I recently received a call from the company stating that I have 2 months of late fees for the last two payments I was allowed to adjust. I was advised by the company that even though they allow me to adjust my payments to when I can make them I am still responsible for a late fee if the payment is received after the XXXX of the month. I advised the company that my contract states that if my payment is received after the XXXX a late fee will be assessed. However, the contract does n't state that if my payment is adjusted to a later date with the companies permission that I would still be assessed a late fee. I advised the company that the only reason my payments would be made after the XXXX would be because that is how I am paid by my employer. I also told the company if I am given permission by the company to adjust my due date to a later date that may possibly be after the XXXX of the month depending on how I am paid I should not be assessed a late fee. The company basically blew me off and said " Just make sure you pay on time ''. The only problem with this is if I was allowed to permanently adjust my due date to later date in the month I would n't have to worry about making my payments late. I would also not have to worry about being charged and harassed about a late fee when I was given permission by the company to adjust my payment to a later date. I would like for any late fees to be waived and I would like to permanently adjust my due date to a later date in the month that allows me to pay all of my bills without any issues.

I am writing to formally dispute inaccurate information on my credit report provided by Credit Acceptance and reported to XXXX and XXXX. The discrepancy involves the reporting of my first late payment, which Credit Acceptance asserts occurred in XX/XX/XXXX. However, I have concrete evidence that my initial late payment was in XXXX XXXX This misinformation has adversely affected my credit standing, and I believe it is a violation of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). According to Section 611 of the FCRA, consumers are entitled to accurate and up-to-date information in their credit reports. Moreover, Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) stipulates that inaccurate information must be promptly corrected or deleted. I have attached documentation clearly demonstrating that the first late payment occurred in XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. As per Section 611 ( a ) ( 7 ) of the FCRA, I kindly request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau conduct a thorough investigation into this matter, considering the evidence provided. Furthermore, I assert that Credit Acceptance has misled the credit reporting agencies, and their failure to rectify this inaccuracy constitutes a violation of the FCRA. Section 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ) ( i ) emphasizes the obligation of credit reporting agencies to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation upon receiving a consumer dispute. It appears that such an investigation has not been adequately performed in my case. In light of the evidence and the apparent violation of my rights, I request the following actions : * Immediate removal of the complete account information from my credit reports with XXXX and XXXX. * A comprehensive and diligent investigation into Credit Acceptance 's reporting practices to ensure compliance with the FCRA. * Assurance that Credit Acceptance rectifies any inaccuracies promptly to prevent further harm to my credit standing. I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and your assistance in resolving this dispute. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Credit Acceptance Corp did not notify XXXX of XXXX XXXX I had sent them a dispute letter this last time either. it was not posted on my Credit report stating that. Also XXXX was told by me in the last letter that I had contacted Credit Acceptance Corp asking for Validation again and XXXX still allowed Credit Acceptance Corp to Certify the information was Accurate ignoring the FCRA. I have video of some of these documents being placed in envelopes and being dropped in the mail boxes. I have copies of certified mail receipts for some also.

On XX/XX/XXXX I went to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( now closed permanently ) to purchase a used car that I saw on their website. The car was advertised for {$12000.00}. I went to the dealership with a down payment of {$2000.00} with the impression that after taxes, dealer fee, and registration fees my total payments owed will be no more than {$15000.00}. The dealer or owner Mo did the whole transaction with me which was all rushed never gave me the time to look over the contract or the finance agreement. He ended up giving me contract with a 22.99 % APR, charging {$8800.00} finance charge ( that is NOT on the itemized bill that I signed ), with a loan term of 60 months with monthly payments of {$350.00}. ( obviously the numbers just doesn't make any sense ). There is no explanation of where the finance charge is coming from on the contracts. I left the dealer ship that with a XXXX XXXX XXXX. One week later on a trip from XXXX XXXX to XXXX NY the car broke down on the highway and I had to get a tow company to tow the vehicle to a local shop. I called the dealership the next day and told them exactly what happened they agreed to cover the cost of getting the vehicle back to XXXX to their mechanic however, that did not help me in getting back to XXXX. There was no communication from the dealership in regards to when I will get back the car or IF I will be getting back the car. I had to keep reaching out to them for the several days during this time, with no transportation to work. After 4 months of getting mechanically unfit cars to use from a rental company they worked with ; XXXX XXXX XXXX decided finally take the time out to get me into another car as the XXXX XXXX had a bad engine and they were " waiting for XXXX to approve a warranty replacement ''. In what I thought would be a fair negotiation he ended up giving me another contract XXXX XXXX, XXXX for a XXXX XXXX XXXX with an APR of 22.99 %, FINANCE CHARGE of {$9700.00}, car value of XXXX, and term of 66 months. With " lower '' payments of {$330.00}

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX mislead me to believe that I needed to help out XXXX XXXX, a friend that worked there, to secure a better rate on an auto. I went to the dealership and signed paperwork but was never shown the loan rate, mileage, cost of the add ons and the total price that I was financing. I trusted my friend and her boss XXXX XXXX. After signing paperwork on XX/XX/XXXX, I was not given copies. I called the dealership on Monday, XX/XX/XXXX to cancel the deal and they said they would try but I would lose my {$2000.00} down payment. On Wednesday, I went by dealership to check on progress and they wanted another {$750.00} to cancel the deal. At that time, I asked for copies of the paperwork and was given page 1 of the Retail Installment Contract. I have still not been given pages 2-5. I was also given the Bill of Sale. I also noticed that paperwork was dated XX/XX/XXXX and I signed XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX showed rate of 27.72 % with my XXXX credit score. The whole reason I went down there was to secure a better rate for my friend. Today, I will call the finance company Credit Acceptance and see if they will decline the loan because of the deceit and trickery used. I did not take possession of car and the dealership does not have trade in. Credit Acceptance said loan had not been processed. I asked rep to block loan but she was unable. I was going to pursue through usuary channels but found out the retail installment loan does not have same caps as usury laws in Florida. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX also told me they were purchasing car on Saturday evening through an auction site so it would have been impossible to know how much car was going to cost to input the figures into the contract. Basically after down payment and trade in the car should have been {$2500.00} but then the {$6400.00} of gap insurance and warranty increased sales price of car to {$8900.00} on bill of sale. The car was not {$8900.00}. The car was only {$5700.00}. So I am getting charged interest on all of the warranty and gap protection.

On XX/XX/XXXX I went to XXXX XXXX in XXXX, CO. It was a XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX. I was working with XXXX XXXX and felt pressured into buying this vehicle. The vehicle is only worth {$2000.00} but they put me in a loan that when everything was said and done the interests of the vehicle was well over the value of the car. I ended up signing the finance loan and felt a little off. I called my Dad and husband and both told me to tell them I do not want the vehicle and to not take possession. I never took possession of the vehicle and told them in a text and showed up to the dealership later in the day telling them I no longer want the vehicle. I went with a different company and the finance manager, I believe his name is XXXX, told me I had no choice but to take possession of the vehicle. I then called Credit Acceptance, as they are the ones who my loan is through anf told them the situation anf they also told me there was nothing I could do. After doing more research I have a right to say no to buying a vehicle but I would take a penalty I was never offered this. I never left the lot with the car in my possession. They told me it was not ready to leave the lot as they needed to complete some work in the vehicle. XXXX ( again I could be using the wrong name ) was very hostile and told me if I do not take possession of the vehicle he will have it towed to my house and dropped off. I told him again do not do that as I am not taking possession of this vehicle. He then hung up on me and later that day the vehicle wad towed to my house and keys were left on my NEIGHBORS doorstep. No one signed for the vehicle stating it was dropped off with no damages and dropped off at the correct place. I have been told by multiple people to fight this and that the sell was not by the books. I want this vehicle off of my credit. I can not afford two car payments especially on a vehicle I did not want. I have made enough payments that the car itself is paid off. Now all I am paying is interest. Can someone Please help me?

I have had my vehicle for XXXX going on 4 Years and I have always been in good standing with my account on Thursday XXXX XXXX my vehicle was XXXX due to a non payment back XX/XX/XXXX a Year ago to my knowledge everything was up to date in between that year I have contacted the bank and have never been informed of this situation I was quoted my Pay off amount never received any correspondence via mail, Phone, or by email as well when I did contact and speak with representatives of the bank they were very cold, uncaring, and unwilling to try and help they just wanted the past due amount of one month I felt it was very unprofessional as well as very stressfulstressful and overwhelming for me which did not seem to matter to anyone no representatives ever tried to help give me any options or reassurance that we can resolve this issue and figure it out together exactly the opposite I felt bullied and like threatened that if " I did not get a payment in I could lose my vehicle and end up paying more '' per the representative. I understand it is a business and I am in no way trying to cheat or manipulate anyone I just feel the whole situation was handled very poorly and unprofessionally especially a year late where as my Automatic Draft all other payments have been processed with out any problems within that 12 month period. I have also felt a lot of miscommunication a lot of the times where XXXX representative will say XXXX thing and then someone else will say something different on occasions many representatives have made me feel more of a burden and troublesome rather than a customer and this is for doing what is requested by the bank to call if any issues or things with payments I have always kept promise to pay if at anytime I needed to change a scheduled payment due to repairs or unforseen expenses. I just wish I was treated more like a customer than just someone who has a car leased through the bank and all that matters is the Money or at least a little more courtesy than what I was given

I have a vehicle loan through Credit Acceptance. On XX/XX/XXXX, at XXXX, I was involved in a accident that totaled my vehicle. I was not at fault, a lady had ran a red light and hit me. My insurance company ( XXXX ), on XX/XX/XXXX, paid Credit Acceptance in the amount of {$7900.00}, which shows cleared status. Credit Acceptance informed me that I still owed {$1700.00} ( and was sent to collections, even though I have not missed a payment and am in good standing ), which I made payment arrangements ( XX/XX/XXXX ) for {$100.00} a month. They offered me a payout of Little over {$800.00}, but I turned it down due to the negative impact it would have on my credit, I would rather pay it off. Credit Acceptance refuses to update my credit report and my online Credit Acceptance page to show accurate amount owed. They were paid {$7900.00} and I feel my credit should reflect that, they got a huge portion of there money and I am making payments on the remaining portion. By them not updating the correct info, it hurts my credit and makes it harder for me to purchase another vehicle ( which I need ). By updating my credit it would lower dept owed by more then {$7900.00} which to me is significant. I have call Credit Acceptance four times to try and get this issue fixed and they would not do it. I filed a dispute with XXXX. After there investigation, they in formed me that Credit Acceptance stated that the info was correct and that I still owe over {$10000.00} dollars. what kind of an investigation is that, when they just accept the word of a company, that's not an investigation. Its not right that these company 's can do this to people. I have made all my payments, I made arrangement 's to pay off the remaining balance, which I have been true to the agreement. Buy updating my credit to show actual amount owed XXXX true amount ) that helps me to move on and help with getting another vehicle. Right now, my credit gets pulled and all they see is, I owe another company {$10000.00}, which is not true.

Credit Acceptance : Back when XXXX hit, I was in a difficult situation regarding making payments, I worked at a sandwich shop and those type of retail/food places were hit hardest regarding hours and pay. I called in, which I have plenty of times and they always end up giving me wrong information but i am sure its not notated, I mentioned hardships and they offered a program for XXXX. My understanding of the program when I spoke to a representative was that they would put my payments on hold until I got back on my feet or found a different job that could supply me with the total of my monthly payment. Fast forward to when I did end up getting a stable job with stable hours to pay for my car payment, they mentioned I was about XXXXXXXX XXXX PAST DUE. They did not inform me all the payments I missed would become past due payments. I now am XXXXXXXX XXXX past due because of XXXX, the only way I am keeping my car is paying XXXXXXXX XXXX more a month on top of my car payment to lessen the XXXX XXXX. I make payment plans instead of autopay just due to how I operate. I was told the other day by a representative I had a two day grace period to make my payment after the " payment plan '' pay by date. That was on the XXXX and I ended up getting paid on the XXXX. They added XXXX XXXX onto my payoff amount recently due to the two day late payment. They request I pay my monthly payment ON top of another XXXXXXXX XXXX to create a new payment plan since the initial one created on the XXXX was broken due to me trusting the previous rep about the XXXX day grace period.I feel they took advantage of my misunderstanding regarding the covid plan put in place back in XXXX. Not to mention, my catalytic converter was stolen off my car back in XXXX and my own dealership couldn't help me with a new one because the dealership XXXX XXXX that I went through to get the car initially cause of my not-so-great credit score also ended up getting all the catalytic converters stolen from their own cars on the lot.

Dear CFPB, I, XXXX XXXX, financed a vehicle with : Credit Acceptance Corporation, At Business : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX At Address : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX TN XXXX, On Date : XX/XX/XXXX, With Vehicle Details : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX VIN # : XXXX Unfortunately, my experience with this vehicle has been nothing short of a nightmare. Just three days after purchasing the vehicle, the engine suddenly failed on the highway, putting my life and the lives of other drivers at extreme risk. After conducting research, I discovered that this vehicle has numerous and dangerous engine manufacturer defects that have occurred with thousands of XXXX XXXX, as evidenced by the class action lawsuit against XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. The engine defects cause extreme oil consumption, rendering my vehicle unusable and unsafe to drive. This defect is life-threatening and dangerous, causing significant financial losses, missed job opportunities, and XXXX. It is clear that this vehicle was sold to me as a lemon in unsafe and dangerous conditions. While I assume that 1 XXXX XXXX XXXX and Credit Acceptance Corporation were not aware of the XXXX manufacturer defect prior to selling, it is your responsibility as the manufacturer to recall these vehicles and provide a safe and reliable replacement. I trusted XXXX XXXX XXXX and this dealership to provide a reliable vehicle that customers can count on. Instead, I find myself in a precarious and very life-threatening driving situation. I demand a recall of my vehicle 's engine and a replacement that is safe and reliable. I find it also appropriate to request a temporary loaner vehicle while mine is being repaired. I understand that issues can arise with used vehicles, but I believe that it is the responsibility of the car manufacturer, dealership & financer to ensure that any issues are identified & addressed prior to sale. Given the occurrence of the life-threatening incidents as a result of this vehicle, I feel this is the only acceptable course of action.

Called an auto dealership in our area and explained what we were going through and told them what that we had XXXX to put down and unfortunetly told them how we did not have any funds for sales tax and they told us oh no problem and I asked how much would this cost and she if we could find a lender, I will let you know, we were under duress at the time as we had no car, so we went to look at it and it was sitting outback, did not let us test drive it, said they had to put muffler on and which they did but that was all as when we got the car, no heat then ac died then wheel well was problems in which they fixed but were not happy to as it was within 30 days. But the most important part was we signed it because we were desperate and had no other way to get a car, no funds in bank, absolutely nothing, my husband was using the company truck for a limited time as he needed to get to work. When we signed we had not had a car payment since XX/XX/XXXX in which we payed it off with a bank. They charged us 21 % as said my husband did not have any credit but we had owned a home and sold it in XX/XX/XXXX, so I do n't understand how we had no credit, so I had to be a co-signer and my credit is not good from student loans and never gave it much thought until our excise bill came and stated that the car was only valued at {$1800.00} and that really opened my eyes and I looked into XXXX XXXX book and so that was true, and in the mean time, checked our paperwork and saw that after all payments were done, we will have paid {$11000.00} for a car worth {$1800.00}?? They said the total cost of your purchase on credit, including your XXXX downpayment is {$11000.00} and now if someone hits our car and totals it, we only get {$1800.00} and still have pay {$11000.00} for the car. They took advantage of our bad credit and it was not a bank it was Credit Acceptance of Michigan and digging further on line about them, they do not have a good name. Now looking at it we are having hard time paying as well.

Okay I want to start by saying I don't understand why this agency consumer finance do not take more legal action against Credit Acceptance they have to have numerous complaints against this company because they deliberately tried to destroy people Credit and report false information on people 's credit report, the lawsuits about this company is horrifying lawsuit on top of lawsuit why is this company still being able to remain open this is horrible I had a car with these people back in 2019 it was totaled I paid on it for a whole year prior insurance paid the value of it I'm not paying them anymore money they keep adding to the balance on my credit report and I feel that it's illegal to keep adding to a balance and you know longer possess their property I thought that this agency handling this was more affiliated with Washington because I just don't think that this agency consumer financing bureau can really do much, all the years that these people have taken advantage of the public something needs to be done to this company to be shut down I want to really take this to Washington because it's apparent something is not getting through, this can't be possibly be right to be treating customers like this and you are still open you can barely find a positive review on these people this is really bad and I'm sick of them posting slight increase after increase on my credit report I have found so many complaints against this company and nothing has been done it's falling on deaf ears upon investigation they have been sued a million times civil lawsuits everything you can possibly imagine and they still remain open something is not getting through to shut this company down after I submit this I want to go to a higher authority because the proper help is not being done against them, this should be against the law to treat consumers like this and for the life of me I'm going to keep posting and posting until something is done about this someone has to stand up against this harassment

I spoke with a representative on the phone who couldnt provide too much information but that once Id agreed to the contract, that Credit Acceptance had the right to add on the original amount however much according to what they thought fit the value. And because I signed the contract, that was what was the deal. When I signed the contract, I didnt know that credit acceptance would add another {$14000.00} to the loan. The contract literally only shows the original {$12000.00} ( somewhere around this amount ) payment with proof of the few thousands I put down to drive the car off the lot. This was a used car that had a mileage initially of XXXX, not exactly but somewhere in this range. I always thought that this didnt make any sense, but it was my first time purchasing a car off the lot and I went with it. But its going on 2 and a half years and Im still paying on this car but my balance is showing {$9500.00} on other app platforms, like my credit card status from the credit bureaus and inquiries and XXXX XXXX. But when I go on the actual website to pay my balance with credit acceptance, it shows my remaining balance of {$14000.00}. I attempted to refinance my car sometime around XX/XX/ and the representative informed me over the phone that my remaining balance on their end was {$9700.00} something and I was confused because it shows otherwise with credit acceptance. Its very misleading and confusing. Im not sure if Im misunderstanding since this is a huge legal process that takes place in vehicle marketing and maybe this is how things operate, but then again Im also not sure if I'm witnessing fraud right before my eyes. There was a case on this earlier in the year of XXXX and Ive just swept over the article of the CFPB suing just now. I was encouraged to complain and share my case just now. I think that I should complain because it unethical and immoral of this and it needs to be right. Or someone to show me if Im wrong. I really hope that there is a way for compensation.

I purchase a car XX/XX/2021 from XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX ohio through Credit Acceptance. XX/XX/2021 i was at work and my co worker came and grabbed me and said my car was on fire which it started through the radio, i began contacting XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX i talked to a manager who was extremely rude and hung up on me and said that wasnt his problem i dont owe finance company and not him. I then contacted XXXX XXXX They Told Me There was nothing they could do about it but put me on a payment plan. I then contacted the warranty company and tried to see if they could help, the warranty company told me i didnt have the car long enough or use up a certain mileage for it to be covered but i was charged an extra {$2000.00} for a warranty not to even work when needed. I Continued to pay the car note until i couldnt any more i still have bills and had to now pay for transportation all over again. I understand i did not have insurance at the time but i was young and so ready to jump into something i really didnt know about and i feel as if they seen me and took advantage of that but now that i am properly aware of my rights i will not continue to let this happen. I then went and purchase a new car and learned that i was double financed when purchasing the car and unaware so when trying to actually purchase a car the correct way was very complicated due to my credit dropping consistently. I then contacted XXXX and got an inspection on the car and they said the only thing they could find was a usb cord so i was at fault and needed to contact my insurance company. I Did have my charger in the car but it was not plugged up and i have images to prove that and even if it was plugged in the car does not give power with out the car being started so i couldnt possibly be at fault. I was over charged for a used car Warranty didnt cover No insurance coverage Caught on fire Double finessed Paid down payment not included in finessed agreement Did not receive cash in hand or form of check

Credit Acceptance agreed to report the CURRENT status of my account when I notified them that I loss my job due to COVID and would need to make payment adjustments. The representative from Credit Acceptance then told me that they were offering a service in which would help people affected from the global pandemic : they would not report negative data to the credit bureaus such as late payments, etc. Instead, they would mark your credit report as " natural disaster '', thus protecting your account from any damage. Since then, Credit Acceptance has NOT accurately reported the status of my account when I notified them that I needed to adjust payments. They are incorrectly reporting that I was 60 days late. I notified them in XX/XX/XXXX and before XX/XX/XXXX, I had not missed a payment. I still paid after notifying them. Despite losing my job, I was able to pay off $ XXXX worth of car debt on XX/XX/XXXX, thus paying the loan in full and closing my account. By XX/XX/XXXX, Credit Acceptance begin reporting to the credit bureaus that I was 60 days late on payments and that my account was still being affected by natural disaster. It is now XX/XX/XXXX, I have called and sent several disputes. Through my efforts, several credit bureaus removed the remarks added by Credit Acceptance, those remarks being : " 60 days late '' and " natural disaster ''. Yet Credit Acceptance keeps adding the remarks, even though I've had them removed. Please help me! Credit Acceptance 's actions has managed to drop my credit score 60+ points despite me paying off the loan in full, closing the account, being affected by COVID - yet protected by a category labeled as " natural disaster '' and me reporting to Credit Acceptance at the time when my account was in good standing. Credit Acceptance refuses to remove the remark they added, I have tried everything. Every time I have the remark removed, Credit Acceptance adds it back, despite my account being closed and paid in full nearly a year ago.

I report abuse of trust by a former co-worker in the process of processing the AUTO loan and where they took advantage of my good will and conducted a whole process of strong consultations with different banks and financial companies, through deception, manipulation and tricks. unscrupulous The car process is requested by XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX - Please see attached data / Digital backup ). XXXX XXXX asked me to help accompany her to her office ( XXXX XXXX ) on XX/XX/XXXX, because she was being offered a car and she wanted to know the amount of the monthly payment and financial responsibilities. - First. They checked her credit and her credentials. ( SSN ) And the salesperson who helped her at that time told her that her credit score is incredibly low and that she needed to present a guarantee and contribute a higher premium to the AUTO. Given that the monthly fee would be approximately USD XXXX to XXXX. Having this information, XXXX XXXX suggested to the seller that she try my personal credentials ( SSN ) to see the numbers and take advantage of my credit history and see if the monthly payment could be lowered. So, $ XXXX was a very heavy amount for her finances. She was looking for an average fee of approximately USD XXXX. I acted in good faith and with the healthy intention that we would try the alternatives and that she would make the best financial decision for her budget. She and the sales associate assured me that only 1 inquiry would be made to the credit bureau and that it would be smooth. And it would not affect my score in the slightest. situation, which is NOT true at all. At no time do I request and/or provide my authorization for multiple inquiries to be made for credit validation and I NEVER request to be the main debtor and/or co-debtor in this credit process. Here, the deceived, used and useful fool has been my person. And I was almost scammed, due to this bad practice and abuse of trust from my former co-worker.

I was able to take a look at my consumer report. I have found that Credit Acceptance Corporations are using abusive, deceptive and unfair debt collection practices to collect on the alleged debt in reference. I am a natural person, a federally protected consumer, and the original creditor defined under 15 USC 1602 ( g ). I extended credit to Credit Acceptance to obtain a vehicle. The vehicle which is subject to the transaction was used primarily for personal, family and household purposes. All extensions of credit are deferred under code 18 USC 891 ( 1 ). Credit Acceptance Corporation is engaged in extortion and racketeering activity by attempting to collect this debt under Title 18 Chapter 42. Failure to make the repayment of this alleged debt has resulted in the use of criminal means by causing harm to my reputation. My consumer report does not include a report containing information solely as to transactions or experiences, furnishing late payments are a violation of 15 USC 1681a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( i ). I never received adequate notice that sets for the pertinent facts for this consumer credit transaction which violates 15 USC 1602 ( k ). Credit Acceptance Corporation has benefited from my uninformed use of credit. The only decision I was given after the consummation of the transaction was to make payments without penalty which is a violation of 18 USC 880. I, the consumer, have never been given the opportunity to direct that my nonpublic personal information should not be disclosed to nonaffiliated third parties such as XXXX, XXXX and XXXX pursuant to 15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( 1 ) ( B ). Nor was I given an explanation on how to exercise the nondisclosure option which is a violation of 15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( 1 ) ( C ). Their conspiracy against my rights is affecting my ability to operate in commerce. This is a violation of 15 U.S. Code 1. I am requesting documentary evidence specifically the book of account under 15 USC 44 to validate this alleged debt.

I am submitting this claim due to a fraudulent contract. I was not given full disclosure about : The finance charge is the cost of consumer credit as a dollar amount. It includes any charge payable directly or indirectly by the consumer and imposed directly or indirectly by the creditor as an incident to or a condition of the extension of credit. It does not include any charge of a type payable in a comparable cash transaction. Regulation Z, 12 C.F.R. 1026.4 ( a ) The Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) requires creditors to disclose key information about consumer credit transactions so that the consumer will be able to compare more readily the various credit terms available and avoid the uninformed use of credit. The finance charge disclosure informs consumers about the cost of credit expressed as a dollar amount. Violations include but are not limited to : My Contract says I can pay in Cash OR Credit! They got the Credit from using my social security ACCOUNT number. My contract also says You have agreed to buy the Vehicle from us on credit for the total sale price The total sale price is : {$22000.00} According to XXXX5 USC 1662 - No advertisement to aid, promote, or assist directly or indirectly any extension of consumer credit may state that a specified downpayment is required in connection with any extension of consumer credit, unless the creditor usually and customarily arranges downpayments in that amount. So They are in violation for requiring a down payment and I am entitled to compensation. My Contract also states : Security : You are giving a security interest in the goods or Vehicle being purchased SECURITY INTEREST.- The term " security interest '' means an interest ( including an interest established by a conditional sales contract, mortgage, equipment trust , or other lien or title retentio contract, or lease ) in a motor vehicle when the interest secures payment or performance of an obligation. THIS MEANS THE CAR WAS PAID IN FULL.

Commute to work has been a continuous struggle without any ventilation. Despite my requests, the company refused to accept the return of the car. I no longer desired this vehicle as it did not match my initial purchase expectations. For the past XXXX years, this car has functioned without proper air conditioning. Moreover, the car 's system frequently malfunctions while driving, causing unexpected stops in traffic. The information provided about the vehicle was deceitful and manipulative. I never agreed to pay for a car under these circumstances, and I find this manipulation highly unjust. The promise was that I would receive an operational and safe car for my family, which clearly hasn't been fulfilled. It's unfair that my family now bears this financial burden without a reliable vehicle, especially considering the needs of my XXXX child. I refuse to make payments for a car that is inoperable, as it was not part of our agreement. Despite my request, I haven't received the original contract, and the contract you attempted to provide is fraudulent and not signed by me. The Truth in Lending Act ( XXXX ), which is a federal law, mandates that lenders disclose specific information to borrowers regarding the terms and costs of the loan. This includes providing a written contract or agreement that clearly outlines the terms of the loan, such as interest rates, payment schedules, and any applicable fees. Sending a fraudulent contract is against the law. I insist on receiving the original contract before any further communication or payments. I will not make any additional payments for a car that can not be operated. XXXX years ago, returning the car was not allowed due to the representations made by your staff and the dealership, claiming no returns were possible. You manipulated me, and now you expect payment for a non-functional vehicle. The contract itself was founded on falsehoods, which is why you are withholding this information from me.

On XX/XX/2021 I, consumer XXXX XXXX certified mailed Credit Acceptance CEO- XXXX XXXX an Affidavit of Truth along with a Cease and Desist letter informing them of the many violations against me. Credit Acceptance received each letter on XX/XX/2021. In the Affidavit of Truth letter I informed Credit Acceptance of the violations against me the consumer. Inside of my Cease and Desist letter, I informed Credit Acceptance that I'm now exercising my right of rescission, and I will retain possession of the property. Pursuant to 15 USC 1635 : When and obligor exercises his right to rescind under subsection ( a ), he is not liable for any finance or other charges, and any security interest given by the obligor, including any such interest arising by operation of law, becomes void upon such a rescission. Within 20 days after receipt of a notice of recession, the creditor shall return to the obligor any money or property given as earnest money, down payment, or otherwise, and shall take any action necessary or appropriate to reflect the termination of any security interest created under the transaction. Within 20 days after receipt of this notice of rescission by federal law, you are required to return all money to me ( amount included in the Bill of Particulars ), and you shall take any action necessary to reflect the termination of any security interest created under our credit transaction. Credit Acceptance did not disclose my right of rescission which is a violation of 15 USC 1635. Pursuant to 15 USC 1640, any creditor who fails to comply with any requirement imposed under section 1635 of this title, with respect to any person is liable to such person, ( 15 USC 1640 ( a ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) ) in the case of an action twice the amount of any finance charge in connection with the transaction Pursuant to 12 CFR 226.15 ( a ) and 12 CFR 226.15 ( d ) I've informed Credit Acceptance of their violations by certified mail delivered on XX/XX/2021.

I purchased a XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX 's XXXX & XXXX in XXXX, Texas. The vehicle was financed by Credit Acceptance at 22.01 % for {$22000.00} total amount of payment. On XX/XX/XXXX, Hurricane Harvey hit XXXX, Texas and I had to travel through floodwaters to make it home where I was trapped. I called Credit Acceptance on XX/XX/XXXX to report XXXXXXXX XXXX was in floodwater. I had full coverage insurance through XXXX XXXX and extended warranty protection through XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX ), however, for FEMA disaster assistance, I was advised not to file a claim with the insurance companies.

I requested letters for both XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX in applying for Fema assistance stating I did not file a claim.

I have a company by the name of Credit Accepteince reporting on my credit report. They calls my phone before XXXX which is affecting my life. I have disputed the account multiple times and also pointed out multiple violations on my credit report from this company and every time I dispute the account it will come back as verified which is odd because the company keeps changing the amount owed, on one of my reports they posted the alleged last payment was XX/XX/XXXXXXXX then on another one they posted last payments was in XXXX and one payment in XX/XX/XXXXXXXX which is impossible because it wasn't me because that was the month I was disputing the account and have a paper trail to prove it. I reached out to the company trying to see what the charges was and told them I don't owe them money then they say XXXX. They said it's for a car that they had but did not want the car because it was not of value to them so they are reporting the account as an open account on my credit reports for a car I dont have. They also were reporting that I allegedly owed XXXX then keep changing the amount every month they changed the amount all the way up to XXXX in XX/XX/XXXXXXXX then the next month in XX/XX/XXXXXXXX it went down to XXXX without any payment, now how is that possible that someone owe close to XXXX then the next month it go down with out a payment. And why are they not reporting the same information on all my reports if it was a real legal account I feel highly threatened by this company and is now working with a lawyer to go forward because the XXXX, XXXX and XXXX is not helping even after I pointed out the violations I have no knowledge of these charges on my report and dont like the harrasment.. I have screen shoots and copies of all communication and copies of all my credit reports that shows proof of each violation. I just found out this company has been sued in California and New york and I believe I'm apart of that

I initially took out the auto loan in XXXX. I called to ask if they could change my due date because the date they gave was before my pay period. They responded they don't do that. In the fall of XXXX I missed a payment due to a tax bill. Every payment afterwards has been on time. I have payment arrangements that i have kept to the day. XXXX and XXXX of XXXX I sent letters requesting to remove late charges thru my credit repair due to all other payments were on time. I received a letter back from them stating that my request was frivolous and irrelevant. I called on XX/XX/XXXX to ask if I have any options available like deferment and I was advised no, they don't offer anything to help you get back on track. She offered to send a request to the credit dept. to dispute my request and I told her that I had done that already which was why I was calling. I advised that I received the letter from them stating that my request was frivolous. She apologized and ended the call. This company only receives payments. They don't do anything to assist the customer if they have payment issues. Because my payments keep getting reported late, my credit score can not recover. Therefore, I can't refinance my loan. So basically I'm screwed because i can't afford the extra payment to stop them from reporting the payments late every month. Had I known that they don't offer anything to help their customers I wouldn't have taken the loan. It's basically set up to cause you to fail and be stuck in a loan that benefits no one but them. They refuse to offer any option to help the customer at all even though you advise that you are struggling, but willing to continue payments but need a little help. They do not operate like the average finance company that will offer you some form of assistance to keep you on track. They should not be allowed to get away with doing this to people. I will never be able to get my credit on track if this keeps up.

I purchased a vehicle from XXXX XXXX of XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2018 under XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. The vehicle was a used XXXX XXXX truck for sale at {$16000.00}. Shortly after purchase ( within 1 week ), the car began to experience serious malfunctioning issues. After several attempts to fix the vehicle by the dealer, and having the vehicle damaged by the dealership while it was in their care for 2, almost 3 weeks right after purchase, I requested a refund of the down payment of {$4500.00} and asked to return the car which was met with much difficulty and lies. I went through all state level procedures to file a complaint and an agreement was made by the dealership with the Office of the Attorney General Consumer Protection Division to refund me my money, take the car, and cancel the loan that was in conjunction with Credit Acceptance Corporation. XXXX XXXX, nor Credit Acceptance Corporation will corporate -- despite an agreement to cancel the loan and my purchasing of another vehicle from a reputable dealer. The car is not driveable and sits in the damaged lot of XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX stated that it is on Credit Acceptance to refund my money and cancel the contract. Credit Acceptance says they can not do anything until the dealership does it, and says the cancellation and refund resolves with the dealer. No party seems to be telling the truth, regardless of all the proof that the car should not have been sold. I am out of {$4500.00} for a car that does not work, that failed inspection, and I do not drive. Credit Acceptance has not been helpful at all and neither has XXXX XXXX. Credit Acceptance keeps billing me, and XXXX XXXX refuses to take their car -- they stated they won't corporate with the transaction and that they will allow it to get repossessed-something I can not afford. Neither party is recognizing that this car was sold that didn't function properly and is still holding me accountable. I have attached proof.

I explained to XXXX last week when she called that I had to medically retire from work and could not afford to pay {$250.00} before XX/XX/XXXX. I received a letter stating they would refer for legal action if it was not paid by then. Just like when they disabled my vehicle and I tried to call I ca n't get through to anyone unless I 'm calling to make a payment. All my calls have been forwarded to voicemails yet I 've received several calls from them to make payment arrangements they already set up like they know my budget and I 'm going through a hardship. Theyre also demanding a lumpsum settlement that I do n't have to pay at this time but wanted me to pay the settlement amount of {$4200.00}. I no longer have the truck. The interest rate they had my car priced at was an illegal rate 23.9 %. Although I signed the contract I was n't aware of this at the time or that they would tamper with and disable my vehicle after being one day late with my payment. The contract should really be voided because of outstanding interest rate I was overcharged. This is an aweful company to work with and has lied to me saying they did n't tell the car lot to install the disablement and for me to go there call them and they would let them know. XXXX said they would remove it if they spoke to someone from the finance company.I get to XXXX XXXX where I got the truck from so Credit Acceptance can speak to them to have it removed and I 'm placed on hold for a long time and then I 'm told they did n't tell me that. So while the vehicle was in my possession I 've been at risk of being stuck in unsafe areas due to the vehicle being disabled for being a day or so late with payments and at the time I was working a lot and needed that extra day or so. I come out at XXXX to go to work from working a double shift the night before and the car did n't start. I was left without transportation to work or to the bank to even deposit the payment.

Since becoming pregnant in XXXX and the pandemic I have been struggling to pay my car note. I called in XXXX of XXXX to advise that I would be having issues paying my bill and wanted to see if there was any assistance available. I was placed in the Covid protection program. At the end of each I would make my payment if I could. After living off of my savings for 2 years, I have no money. I called credit acceptance to see if there was anything more that could be done so I could keep my vehicle and my credit not be impacted due to the global pandemic. They would advise for me to just make payments that I can afford to pay, they reassured me that I would stay under covid protection. In the mist of not qualifying for unemployment benefits and not being able to find a job that paid enough to allow me to send my newborn to daycare, I missed XXXX payments. I called credit acceptance in XX/XX/XXXX to explain what was happening and why I missed the XXXX payments and begged them to keep me on covid protection. Even though prior to XXXX, I was not late or missing a payment, they refused to put me back on covid protection. I am in a single-mother group that shares helpful information with each other and XXXX of the mothers told me that the same thing happened to her and she was able to get back on the program and her credit was not affected. Since not being placed on the XXXX XXXX XXXX, I have still been making payments when I can, but my credit has been hit extremely hard, so much so that I can't get approved for an apartment for me and my daughter. My XXXX XXXX was XXXX, and because of covid and credit acceptance, my score is barely at XXXX. I really need help, I'm not deep enough in debt to be able to file for bankruptcy, credit acceptance is what is hurting me the most. Currently, my daughter and I are living in our car since I can't get approval for an apartment that is in a safe neighbor for us both.

My husband purchased a car and never received a call from this company for about a year and when he did he was one day late with the payment they immediately threaten to take action and called constantly every hour on the hour when asked to not call on certain days or hours that he was at work. We have filed an insurance claim on our car due to {$800.00} in damage and the day that we left the dealership we had issues with the car they did n't want it back because it was their car. Now we 've had problems ever since. Credit Acceptance has been harassing us since we filed a claim for damage and we have to pay out of pocket for the damage to the car as well as the car payment so now they are threatening to repo it when I purchased the car it was {$7000.00} and I put nearly {$3000.00} down on the car this was XX/XX/XXXX it is now XX/XX/XXXX and I still owe over {$5300.00}. Our payments are at {$250.00} a month and my car is only worth about {$2500.00}. I do believe we were scammed out of money at one point because I remember paying a payment one time at the beginning of the month and about halfway into the month they called me saying I did n't make a payment and I paid the payment twice and they said they did not have it on record what can be done? This company has prevented me trading it in and refinancing a loan. In fact there are multiple recalls on this vehicle which is why I do not understand why the price was so high when I purchased it. The defects were still present when we purchased the car keep in mind it is XXXX Chevrolet HHR and we purchased it in XX/XX/XXXX those defects were already supposed to be fixed when we purchased the car. I really do not want this car and unfortunately neither the dealer nor credit acceptance would give me back my money for this car when I first purchased it and wanted to take it back the next week. I just want my money back and for the harassment and threats to stop.

On XX/XX/2017 a late payment was place on my consumer credit file by Credit Acceptance. Prior to this time. My original payment ate was the XXXX of the month. I discussed with Credit Acceptance that due to an hardship was it possible to change the due date to a later date of the month of which they agreed. I was charged {$20.00} to make the payment adjustment in the date. To make payments due on the XXXX of the month. In addition, I agreed to pay {$570.00} instead of the original {$510.00} payment to have the payment registered as on time. Even though I agreed to make these payments and followed the directions, they continued to report these payments as late to the credit bureaus. I set up automatic deductions and increased the deductible amount to {$600.00} to avoid the late fees. But the arrears just grew from about {$300.00} to over {$3000.00}, even though the payment was taken out of my bank account by the creditor every month as per their " agreement '' with me. Additionally they continued to report the account as late to the credit bureaus. In the original agreement Credit Acceptance allowed a 15-day grace period for being late after the due date ; however, late fees and reporting occurred if you were only late 1 day late. It was unclear how or whether the extra money paid each month was applied to reduce the late payments. I requested an audit of the account to verify the account and never received it. The company and bureaus did not follow the law and posted un-validated information about the account with Credit Acceptance. They violated my consumers rights by the following : 15 USC 1692f ( 1 ) unfair or unconscionable means to collect or attempt to collect any debt, 15 USC 1692g 809 ( b ). Validation of debts - Disputed debts. The information reported by the credit bureau 's is inaccurate : The balance, the monthly payment, the payment history, and the payment status are all incorrect.

I have sent several letters via certified mail to Credit Acceptance, XXXX, XXXX and XXXX regarding a Car Repossession listed on my credit report. I have disputed the account for unfair and inaccurate reporting numerous times to no avail. I have also asked for the method of validation of these inaccuracies from all three credit bureaus only to be sent their computer generated verified as accurate letter from XXXX, XXXX and XXXX The account still to date has inconsistencies reporting to all three major credit bureaus. For instance, on XXXX the last pay listed as XX/XX/XXXX. Same account via XXXX last pay listed as XX/XX/XXXX. And XXXX last payment date is unknown. The account was previously listed as closed with no known updates since XXXX of XXXX. That is until XXXX updated payment history on XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX with 20+ late payments as well as XXXX dating back to original close date. I also noticed that each month from XX/XX/XXXX until now XX/XX/XXXX Credit Acceptance has been continuously updating the balance each month and accruing interest on said closed account. According to my credit report in XX/XX/XXXX the balance was {$13000.00} as of today XX/XX/XXXX the balance is {$15000.00}. Thats a difference of {$2400.00} in interest on a closed account in repossessed status. I find this to be not only illegal but unethical on Credit Acceptances behalf. I also find that all three bureaus are blatantly refusing to uphold the laws set forth by the FCRA for continuing reporting this false information. From my understanding Credit Acceptance is already involved in lawsuits and litigations by several other previous clients for these exact practices amongst other unfair account handlings. I am requesting that Credit Acceptance, XXXX, XXXX and XXXX remove this erroneous information from my credit report and that it also not be reinserted onto any of my credit reportings at a later date.

I have asked credit acceptance, XXXX XXXX and XXXX multiple times to remove my nonpublic personal auto account from the third parties ( XXXX, XXXX and XXXX ) because they didnt give me the option to opt out of their opt out disclosures and they refused. I have recently read the GRAMM-LEACH-BLILEY ACT under the Federal Trade Commission and they are failing to comply with the law. The GRAMM-LEACH-BLILEY ACT requires financial institutions companies that offer consumers financial products or services like loans, financial or investment advice, or insurance to explain their information-sharing practices to their customers and to safeguard sensitive data. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act seeks to protect consumer financial privacy. Its provisions limit when a " financial institution '' may disclose a consumer 's " nonpublic personal information '' to nonaffiliated third parties. The law covers a broad range of financial institutions, including many companies not traditionally considered to be financial institutions because they engage in certain " financial activities. '' Financial institutions must notify their customers about their information-sharing practices and tell consumers of their right to " opt-out '' if they don't want their information shared with certain nonaffiliated third parties. In addition, any entity that receives consumer financial information from a financial institution may be restricted in its reuse and redisclosure of that information. Credit acceptance, XXXX XXXX and XXXX has failed to disclose this information to me and knowingly and willfully withheld pertinent information regarding the disclosure of my information to affiliated and non-affiliated third parties, credit acceptance corporation, XXXX and XXXX knowingly, and willfully withheld information that explains how I the consumer can exercise that nondisclosure option. My account should be removed immediately!

I purchased my first car on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and financed it with Credit Acceptance Corp . I made my payments online on time in XXXX and XXXX XXXX using my debit card. On XXXX XXXX I was in an accident and immediately filed a claim. The car is a total loss. When I tried to make a payment on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX the payment was declined with no explanation. I tried several times without success. I called the company on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and was told more than likely the insurance company had taken care of the loan. On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX I called the Credit Acceptance because the insurance company was still waiting to hear from Credit Acceptance. I was then told that I had missed XXXX payments and I had been reported to the credit bureau. I was told that when there is an accident you can not make payments using a debit card. I had no way of knowing this. I am attaching a copy of the message I received when I tried to make a payment. Today I tried to make the XXXX past due payments using two methods : debit card online and calling and neither method allowed me to make a payment. I wanted to take care of this as soon as possible because I need to purchase a car to get to my XXXX jobs but can not buy a new car with the credit report from Credit Acceptance. There is nothing in the payment coupon book that tells me I can not make a payment with a debit card if I have been in an accident. I want Credit Acceptance to accept my debit card payment and I want them to fix my credit report. I am young and this is my first attempt at establishing credit. I was diligent in making my payments in an accepted manner per the coupon book and coupon. Because I work XXXX jobs I can not wait on the phone to make the payments during their office hours which are Eastern Time ; I live in California. The insurance company on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX confirmed they are also waiting on Credit Acceptance for paperwork to pay off the loan.

In XX/XX/XXXX, I lost my job for more than 6 months with a young child, which caused my previous car to be repossessed. Therefore, when I got a job, it was far and I had to settle for a second chance auto loan lender, Credit Acceptance. I was told that I would be able to refinance the car to lower the interest rate but this never happened. No lender would refinance my vehicle because it has negative equity. I have had my car appraised, and it was estimated at being worth {$3500.00}, with me owing Credit Acceptance roughly {$14000.00}. No auto loan lender will refinance my current loan nor allow for a trade in with such a high loan balance. Essentially, i am stuck in this loan with a car that is fallen to pieces. The car does not shift gears properly without me using a screw driver, I am having transmission issues which have caused me roughly $ 2K to date, every time I have paid for my car door to be fixed it breaks again so I have roll down my window to open the door from the outside. My monthly payment is {$540.00} on this XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have asked Credit Acceptance to lower my interest to rate or lower my buyout so another auto lender can approve me to get another car and so that my roll over amount is lower. I have gone to 5 dealerships who have stated I am stuck in this loan and they can only assist me if my outstanding loan amount was roughly 50 % less. I think it is beyond ridiculous that second chance auto lenders are taking advantage of consumers who fall on rough times, where they have no programs to reduce interests or car appraisal for extreme cases such as myself. Additionally, they have poor customer service, where their customer service reps are beyond disrespectful and they call constantly when you have already agreed to a payment plan with another rep. I have also asked to speak to their legal department to try to come to a conclusion and they never called me back.

I went to XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX in Michigan. This was my first time financing a car and they made me comfortable only for me to realize they took advantage of me later on. They didnt give me a lot do options to choose from, then pressured me into getting the expedition. I got approved for {$260.00} a month, {$500.00} down on an XXXX expedition on XX/XX/XXXX through credit acceptance. All my paper work showed that i will owe about XXXX and they told me after 6 months i will be able to get a better car. On my credit acceptance account it had showed I owed almost or even more than XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX my car started to show signs of it about to break down. The engine light came on and it never drove the same. Mechanics told me I didnt even have a water pump. They told me my vehicle was horrible and shouldve never got it. I called the car sales and told them repairs were {$1000.00} plus and they did nothing. Credit acceptance never answered the phone for me, only one time. That call they did not help me fix the problem at all so I have been stuck paying credit acceptance and now I am behind on payments on a car I cant even use. I have been out of a vehicle for months and I am only XXXX XXXX XXXX. My job cut my hours and Ubers are almost {$30.00} everyday to go to work. Nobody helps me and I am all alone. I need a new vehicle and I need credit acceptance off of my credit. I cant even save money to even try and better this situation because I have to spend it on rides to work. I went to multiple dealers trying to get help and they said i need cosigner due to credit acceptance loan. I have nobody to cosign for me at all I have asked everybody I know. Please help me with this situation with credit acceptance & please include XXXX XXXX XXXX for leading me into this horrible situation as well as credit acceptance. If you need my paperwork from XXXX, Im in the process of looking for it.

I got a car loan through credit acceptance in XXXX of XXXX. My payment has never been late. I made sure to make my payments on time every month. I struggled during the COVID-19 pandemic to pay my bills but still managed to make sure my car note was paid on time. It all became too much in XXXX of XXXX and I just could not make ends meet. I called credit acceptance and explained to them that I would be unable to make my XXXX payment. Trying to be proactive and looking for some sort of resolution, I explained to them that my financial situation was strained because of the global pandemic, that I was no longer employed and struggling to pay my bills and maintain a household as a single mother of XXXX. I did exactly what it is posted on their website to do, which is give them a call as soon as possible if there is an issue making a payment. I asked for some sort of grace with the company because of the state that we were in in the world and because of my outstanding payment history to that point. I was told that there was nothing that they could do to help me other than note my account of the conversation. They reported my account as late with the credit bureaus, which has negatively affected my credit score and payment history. This has caused a tremendous amount of stress, pain and grief to an already traumatic situation. I find it absolutely devastating and appalling that company 's can be this heartless and ruthless to the consumers that keep them in business, especially at a time like this. There should be some sort of relief or program offered to help customers. My payments were on time before and have been made on time since. Credit acceptance is taking advantage of their consumers and are only in business to help themselves, not the customers! They should not be able to hurt or affect peoples ' lives this way, especially now, during a pandemic! Something needs to be done!

I am writing with regard to three late payments reported in XXXX, XXXX and XXXX of XXXX. I lost my job at XXXX XXXX XXXX in due to COVID-19. As a result, I missed my XXXX payment. I continued to make one payment as I could monthly, but because of the first missed payment, it shows that I continued to be behind one payment. A payment was made on XX/XX/XXXX ( {$330.00} ), XX/XX/XXXX, ( {$330.00} ), XX/XX/XXXX ( {$330.00} ), XX/XX/XXXX ( {$330.00} ), and XX/XX/XXXX XXXX {$330.00} ). I contacted Credit Acceptance shortly after I lost my job to inquire about payment options due to COVID, and I was told and received a notification that payments would still be due and that nothing could be done. I called again, explaining everything above, and was told by a male representative that I should dispute the missing payment with the credit bureaus. I did so, and the dispute was denied. I called again after this on XX/XX/XXXX, and was told by a representative that my account was placed under the COVID protected status, and that she did not understand why the payments were reporting late because of the status. I have done my research, and have found that many customers are being affected by the late payments being reported while in the COVID protected status. The late payments, reporting with all 3 bureaus, have caused my credit score to drop severely. I have been able to get a better job with a new company, and have been able to get back on track with my auto loan payments. I am in the process of purchasing a new home for myself and my two children, and it has come to my attention that the late marks prevent me from taking full advantage of the best interest rates available. I am requesting that you please give me a second chance at a positive credit rating by revising the late payments. I sincerely hope that there is redemption at Credit Acceptance, and I plead for such consideration.

XX/XX/XXXX Loan in the stated amount of {$16000.00} to purchase a XXXX XXXX XXXX funded via Credit Acceptance , Inc. was accepted by me at the Vehicle dealership.

After signing 2 or 3 papers directly for the purchase the financial person stated that he would do the rest of the paperwork online and give me a copy. Since it was dark and raining heavily and that XXXX had picked me up at my home I had agreed and did not take the time to read all the documents. I had an hours drive back to Pennsylvania. On XX/XX/XXXX I received my notice for payment due on XX/XX/XXXX. After I sent payment, I received several more notices. The next documents received via U.S. mail noted that the loan for this vehicle was for {$29000.00}. I called Credit Acceptance about this, thinking that there was some mistake especially since the papers that I signed noted that the loan amount was for {$15000.00}, or XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX shortly after notifying XXXX that there was a problem with the exhaust on the vehicle, I could smell it upon startup of the vehicle when cold. The vehicle burned up on the highway after someone notified me that the vehicle was on fire while I was driving at about 65mph. The insurance, XXXX sent a payoff notice for the loan.

Greeting, I was illegally swindled into a sub-prime loan situation by a predatorial organization that utilized a used car dealership inorder to drain people bank accounts by raising the rates and percentages on previous signed contracts and agreements without my consent as the buyer and consumer. Once I found out I returned the vehicle to local destination for recovery whom was an affiliate of the seller that processed the illegal repossession for Credit Acceptance Corporation. I drove the vehicle there myself in order to squash this illegal encounter without getting a refund yet the record was supposed to been cleared long ago! Please be advised that Credit Acceptance Corporation was a criminal organization that even got caught trying to steal the vehicle after my initial purchase the XXXX as I was making monthly payments on time. This atrocious behavior by said companies has caused so much grief in my life over the past 7 years Credit Acceptance Corporation should be paying me for all punitive damages and the illegal loan interest rates plus hidden fees. For what I understand today is that the Justice Department is working on bringing that illegal operation and monstrous activities to an abrupt halt. After I submit this proof I request that my credit report be cleared as I was told that this issue was removed already long ago. Please update my credit report by removing this fictitious accusation against my name at this time. Here 's a link where you may do your own homework on Credit Acceptance Corporation daily operations ; https : //www.consumerfinance.gov/about-us/newsroom/cfpb-and-new-york-attorney-general-sue-credit-acceptance-for-hiding-auto-loan-costs-setting-borrowers-up-to-fail/ ___________________________________________________________ Thank you in advance for your time and attention in this most important urgent matter.

I used the lender Credit Acceptance Co in XXXX to purchase a vehicle. The vehicle was voluntarily repossessed in XX/XX/XXXX. The origination amount was {$11000.00}, remaining was, {$9200.00}. Credit Acceptance took possession of the car at the time and changed the account to a repo. Months later they then changed the account to collections. As a repo they must provide documentation of the auction value and the remain balance. They did not, but they did not. it remained as a collection from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. At no time providing the correct documents for this change. In XXXX of XXXX Credit acceptance illegally change the account type once more from collection to open. And has remained in this type. This is reflected on all three major bureaus, XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. And also on some of the other like XXXX XXXX. This is 100 % not accurate and completely fraudulent. I have sent letter XXXX, XXXX, XXXX and have called in XXXX and XXXX of XXXX. In challenging this all 3 bureaus have allowed this to stand even after I have requested proof multiple times. The response is " this company has verified the account ''. They sent me zero documents to substantiate it is the right information ; zero documents proving it is an open account ; zero documents showing the repo information. The account itself is not accurate, it is illegally reopened. The amount being reported is no {$14000.00}. The personal information is not correct as I have sent updated info to the bureaus and Credit acceptance. For every incorrect and inaccurate reporting. Under the laws of Arizona, XXXX Article XXXX XXXX, most notable XXXX and XXXX, and State XXXX and XXXX XXXX a deficiency can not be claimed unless all of the required notices were properly and timely given, and all of the allowable redemption and cure time limits were adhered to. this company has not done any of this.

I am claiming lending fraud and to further substantiate my claims of inaccuracies in your credit reporting. First, according to the terms of the contract the APR is 19.99 %, finance charge {$7100.00}, which is the sum of all charges. The amount of excessive illegal interest applied in totality {$12000.00}. ( Refer to Payment History ) This amount far exceeds XXXX usury rates maximum of 21 %. Pursuant to the Truth In Lending Act US CODE1605 ( a ) ( XXXX ) and the FDCPA US CODE1692f ( 1 ) this company is in violation thereof. We were also overcharged for sales tax. XXXX local sales tax rate is 8 % and we were charged above the legal rate. XXXX Refer To The Contract ) Secondly, I received a debt collections letter dated XX/XX/XXXX that failed to mention any accrual of interest or a specified amount of what was owed, pursuant to US CODE 1692g ( a ) ( 1 ) under the FDCPA. ( Refer To The Collections Letter ) Next, the initial balance reported {$12000.00} and according to the terms of the contract the principal amount financed {$12000.00}. There were no transactions, no promises, arrangements, and no payment since XX/XX/XXXX. Since then the account remained dormant. However, on XX/XX/XXXX this company stacked {$6900.00} of illegal interest according to federal law. Then reported the account was 180 days past due with XXXX and XXXX and 120 days past due with XXXX I received written correspondence from a representative of the company stating that they had not reported 120 days past due to XXXX I disputed it with XXXX and nonetheless this company verified the information as accurate. XXXX Refer To Dispute Results ) Pursuant to the FDCPA 15 US CODE1681s -2- and US CODE 1681 ( a ) ( 4 ) your company is in violation thereof.

I was ripped off is what happened. In 2014 I needed a car. Found a place that works with you they go thru credit acceptance. It was a lemon had nothing but problems with the car. Contacted the dealer multiple times to make it right. And he refused to. I called credit acceptance to complain. They said too bad I didnt call before the first 30 days were up that I signed contract cause I couldve returned car without being held responsible for paying for the car. But because it was after 30 days I still had to pay for it. Nobody tells you that in the first place. I felt like I had no choice so i paid for the repairs. I kept paying payments then few months later or so the transmission went. I was so fed up I called credit acceptance and told them to come get the car. I was surrendering it. They told me they would sell car at auction and I would have to pay remaining balance. months later I was finally sent a letter saying they sold the car for {$1.00} and I owed them approximately {$3600.00} I wasnt paying that much for a lemon. I had already pd thousands towards it between payments and repairs. They send it to collections and this lawyer was gon na submit paperwork to garnish my wages so I agreed to start paying. I didnt pay much but tough times happened and couldnt pay anymore. Then I get a letter from local sheriffs department saying they are involved and if I dont pay they were garnishing my wages. So I paid little more. Again I couldnt keep up. Today I was contacted by HR that the sheriff dept did place a wage garnishment against me, gon na start taking 10 % every 2 weeks starting next week. I feel so disgusted I was ripped off from the beginning. Shame on credit acceptance for completely taking advantage of people who thought it was legit and not making it right. I cant afford what theyre doing to me. how do I get thru this?

I am writing to file a formal complaint against Credit Acceptance Corp regarding an auto loan account with Account Number XXXX, which was allegedly opened on XX/XX/2017, and currently shows a balance of {$8700.00}. I have discovered this account on my credit report and believe that I am a victim of identity theft. The circumstances surrounding this account are deeply troubling, especially in light of the XXXX database breach that occurred around the time this account was supposedly opened. Pursuant to the provisions outlined in 15 USC 6804 and 15 USC 6802 ( b ), I have formally disputed the existence of this account with Credit Acceptance Corp, requesting a thorough investigation into its origin and legitimacy. Furthermore, I have exercised my right to opt-out of any information sharing practices related to this account. I have also requested all pertinent documentation related to the account, including applications, signatures, contracts, a copy of the drivers license, and any other information on file. Despite my efforts to rectify this situation directly with Credit Acceptance Corp, I have encountered resistance and am concerned about the potential impact on my credit and financial well-being. Therefore, I am seeking the assistance of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau in resolving this matter. I kindly request that the CFPB investigate this dispute and take appropriate action to ensure Credit Acceptance Corp complies with the relevant consumer protection laws. Moreover, I request your intervention to halt any collection activity associated with this disputed account and to address the potential violation of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Enclosed, please find copies of the dispute letters I have sent to Credit Acceptance Corp, along with any supporting documentation related to this case.

I XXXX XXXX at this current moment is submitting a complaint that i currently have Credit Acceptance reporting on my consumer report of an alleged debt they claim i owe an amount of {$13000.00}. I do not owe this debt and i will not entertain with paying this debt. Please be advised that Credit Acceptance is in violation of the FDCPA 15 USC 1681b ( 2 ) which clearly states that no debt collector shall not state that such consumer owes any debt in which they are currently violating. The account information that Credit Acceptance is currently reporting to the consumer reporting agency is false and misleading and is in violation of the FDCPA 15 USC 1692e. I have sent a letter to credit acceptance regarding the alleged debt they claim i owe and i demanded validation of debt they claim i owe in which they have failed to provide which is a violation of the FDCPA 15 USC 1692g and Credit Acceptance sent a letter back stating that my request/demand is frivolous in which i find to be very disrespectful towards my rights as consumer. Credit Acceptance is civilly liable {$1000.00} per violation for the damages they have caused and not complying with the demands that has be requested that they have failed to comply with 15 USC 1692k ( a ) ( 1 ). Please be advised that Credit Acceptance has also committed several violations and my right to privacy 15 USC 6801 ( a ) and violated 15 USC 6802 ( e ) ( 2 ). Credit Acceptance did not have written instruction to furnish this information and has also committed a violation of 15 USC 6802 ( 6 ) ( a ). I demand that this account be removed from my consumer report immediately as Credit Acceptance has committed many violations of my consumer rights under the FDCPA. Credit Acceptance shall not assume people do not no their rights as a consumer against the illegal activity thats being committed here.

CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION has been committing usury on my loan and in fact they also violated my SMCRA. So, I have a 22.99 % interest rate with them have since I signed in XXXX. I am a veteran first and foremost, and at the time was protected by the Service member 's civil relief act. They didn't acknowledge that and they took advantage of me, my interest rates was supposed to be capped at 6 % while I served on XXXX XXXX and they did not do that. Instead I didn't even know what my interest rate was until XXXX as I wasn't knowledgeable on anything I just needed and wanted a car being that I needed to get around as a XXXX. the 2nd red flag is they are committing usury, and are very aware of it, I spoke with them about it and it wasn't a good conversation. I bought the car in Louisiana, and the interest cap is and was at the time 12 % APR, yet I still have a 22.99 % APR. I spoke with a manager at the companyon XX/XX/XXXX who was very rude and kind of upset that I brought up the legalities of the situation. To sum up our conversation he literally told me to take them to court. He and other representatives I spoke to seemed to not care at all about the corp. wrong doings.They offered no resolution for the situation not even trying to fix it now, the manager was only worried about a payment. So for me, a United States Veteran who answered the call, served so they can even have the right to be a corp. was taken advantage of by this company. They didn't follow state guidelines and laws or even the Federal Act that was put in place to protect service members they took advantage of my ignorance with financing a car. It's not fair and not right. I really hope the government intervenes and stops them, because if they aren't stopped so many more citizens will fall victim to their cruel tactics. Thank you for allowing me to share.

Lender : Credit Acceptance Reasons For Complaint : Deceitful Practices, Improper Payment Practices, Impractical Payoff Process, Failure to provide Refund per contract, Failure to Return Over payment per contract, Misleading Costumer Service. This company has policies that make it impossible to pay off your car loan. They cap the amount you can pay at a Time online, and they also like to return a refund payments for no reason also there have been payments of mine that have gone missing and I believe that I had to pay this car off twice. On XX/XX/XXXX I made my final payment to pay off the payoff quote which they only allowed to be good for 24 hours thus having caused me to have to scramble within those 24 hours to make the payments on time. They claimed that I did not make the appropriate mark on the form saying that my Gap refund amount be included or not but I did however do what I was supposed to do to properly close the loan. The lady on the phone misled me into doing it again getting a different charge off quote for what was already basically paid for that didn't reflect in the system thus forcing me to have to pay it again to close off my loan that was on XX/XX/XXXX they waited the exact 20 days to release my loan my title however I have not gotten the extra payment I was forced into making or my Gap refund back and now I can't even get a hold of them on the phone or find it get any access to my payment history. They have lied to me I've been jumping through their hoops this whole time they charged me outrageous interest rates and the people on the phone lie they are rude and they still haven't given me my money but whenever I pay late which I never have I would have been charged I outrageously ridiculous amount but yet they can't pay me per their own contract my money back that they forced me into paying over.

1. Credit Acceptance Corporation makes predatory loans to millions of financially vulnerable consumers trying to buy a used vehicle. 2. Credit Acceptance sets the interest rates affiliated dealers must charge on it loanstypically about 22 %, which is at or near the maximum rate allowed in many states. 3. The true cost of CAC credit is higher than what is disclosed on the CAC loan agreements, so many of the loans actually exceed state usury caps. 4. CAC engaged in deceptive and abusive acts or practices in violation of the Consumer Financial Protection Act of 2010 ( the CFPA ), 12 U.S.C. 5531 ( a ), 5536 ( a ) ( 1 ), 5536 ( a ) ( 3 ), by obscuring the cost of credit for auto loans and taking unreasonable advantage of consumers lack of understanding of the risk of default and the severity of the consequences, as well as their inability to protect their interests, and for providing substantial assistance to dealers, even though CAC knew or should have known the dealers were misrepresenting the voluntary nature of add-on products. 5. From XX/XX/XXXX2015 to XXXX XXXX, 2021 ( the Covered Period ), approximately 1.9 million consumers obtained loans from CAC and its affiliated used-car dealers. In 2020 alone, consumers obtained more than {$4.00} billion in CAC-financed loans. 6. CAC claims that it caps the degree to which its dealers can inflate the price of vehicles. For example, since XXXX 2019, CAC has restricted dealers from increasing the price beyond 115 % of the highest XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX value ( i.e., best condition ) for the make and model in question. But such a cap is far too high to provide meaningful protection to CAC borrowers ; CAC does not check on the condition of the vehicle, and many CAC borrowers are in fact financing vehicles worth much less than the highest XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX.

Credit Acceptance has attempted to collect this alleged debt from me since I entered into a contract with them on XX/XX/XXXX. I participated in a consumer credit transaction and not a loan Pursuant to 15 U.S CODE 1605 the finance charge in connection with any consumer credit transaction shall be determined as the sum of all charges which was never disclosed to me by Credit Acceptance. I am not terminating the contract, I am deducting my liability to pay on behalf of the obligor as I found several violations of fraud. According to the contract, I wasn't aware of my right to rescind at the time. I entered into the contract without being given full disclosure and disputed the validity of this debt when I mailed a letter of conditional acceptance on XX/XX/XXXX. In this letter, I agreed to pay the debt if within 15 days, I was sent the following from Credit Acceptance : confirmation of the debt, production of the account and a general ledger statement, a signed invoice to verify their claim against me, a copy of the contract binding both myself and Credit Acceptance ( not a photocopy ), a statement acknowledging whether they are the holder or servicer in due course, a declaration acknowledging whether they sold my note as part of a pooling and servicing agreement ( securitization ), and if securitized, the name of the REMIC to whom my loan was sold and the CUSIP number assigned to my loan after it was securitized. I have reason to believe Credit Acceptance willfully and knowingly took advantage of me and my consumer credit. In addition, I was given false and deceptive information, as I was told that a down payment was needed in order to drive off of the lot which is a violation of 15 USC 1692e. I have included the letter I sent to Credit Acceptance as well as the contract I signed with Credit AcceptanceXXXX XXXX

The financing company repossessed my vehicle after EVERY single payment was made on time and then not even 24 hours of it being late they repossessed it for being Late. I had to pay repossession fees AND also hefty fees to the financing company ON TOP of my already HIGH payment. MY bank told me that they should have at least tried to bill my auto payment twice or three times before REPOSSESSING the vehicle. It was IN my bank account. NOW my credit report shows that I had a missed payment. Also CURRENTLY I have made EVERY SINGLE payment BEFORE the agreed upon date each month so my credit report SHOULD show the actual payments. I am NOT happy about the fact that the XXXX only shows I paid until XX/XX/XXXX when that is INCORRECT. I have paid EARLY every single month for this ENTIRE YEAR. I want the credit Bureaus to reflect the CORRECT payments. All it states on my credit reports is that it is current but only shows that I made payments through XX/XX/XXXX.

Upon checking my credit report again due to an alert i received from the credit bureaus, I noticed several unknown, unauthorized credit inquiries on my report. A company by the name of XXXX XXXX XXXX credit acceptance and XXXX we on my report. Number one I XXXX XXXX XXXX because I have XXXX XXXX so why do I need a car? Next, I 'm not in the market for a new credit card neither and ca n't afford to pay back amounts in full every month as needed from XXXX. This is my EIGHT REQUEST asking you to remove the unverified inquiry, which violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act Section 1681b ( c ). This is a serious breach of my privacy rights. The FCRA states that the only permissible purpose for pulling someone 's credit report is a ) firm offer of credit b ) insurance c ) employment or d ) a court order. The following inquiries are related to none of the aforementioned permissible purposes, and I demand that the following accounts be properly verified or removed immediately. What this means is that your company must be willing and able to produce a document in your files that proves authorization was given by me and the information being reported is accurate and you must be able to do this in a court of law if I file a lawsuit against you. Someone in your company must authenticate the documents in your files that were used to verify the disputed inquiry and to do this they must have 1st hand knowledge of the alleged inquiry and all that has ever transpired for the alleged inquiry under oath and under the penalty of perjury. Please be advised that if this inquiry isnt verified according to the Fair Debt Collections Act. You must delete this recording from my credit reports. Under Section 611 ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA you are required to promptly DELETE all information which can not be verified.

Hi it's me again. So when looking at all the documents you sent me when you settled my judgement. I have set down went over them and yalls math does not math. So u have XXXX percent interest rate on a XXXX dollar car. Ok cool so that would be XXXX. However my finance charges were XXXX which is actually closer to XXXX percent which would give you the finance charge of XXXX. That's very deceptive. If I had of made all my payments I would have paid XXXX not including the XXXX I put down. For a total of XXXX for a 2015 XXXX. So if you go by what the interest rate says of 22.99 % the total would have been XXXX plus the XXXX down it would have been XXXX. Which it XXXX dollars less than what yall charged. I should hope that you all eventually quit screwing people. It's not fair for you to hide hidden interest rates. I will provide the copy of what u sent. Also when I would make payments you all would credit the XXXX dollars then reverse the credit for XXXX and add on XXXX to the balance with every payment. This company is shady and should change the way you do things. You prey on people that don't have a choice at the time. Then come after them when you know your hiding fees. It's not right. No I'm not just statified with you canceling the judgement against me because, I was taken advantage of and it's clear in black and white in the paper work. Just a little math and research goes a long way. At the time of the loan I wasn't in a position to math the whole equation out. I was a single mom doing the best I could with XXXX babies to make ends meet and needed away to get back and forth to work to provide for them. Please I beg you to stop preying on people. Please all pages included in the packet. Because I would have never even known you were literally screwing me had you not sent that response.

I have made multiple calls to Credit Acceptance at XXXX to obtain the release of a lien on my deceased mother 's car. She died in XXXX and I have provided them with her SSN, the letters Testamentary and my appointment as executor from the Court in XXXX. The car was paid off many years ago. My mother 's name was XXXX XXXX. XXXX, and the account number was provided by Credit Acceptance as XXXX. The company called me in XX/XX/XXXX while I was out of the country, and and said they were mailing the lien release. It did not arrive, even though they had my address. When I contacted them after the first of the year, they claimed to have mailed it to my deceased mother 's address ( the family sold the property and we do not receive mail there. ) Then On or about XX/XX/XXXX, Credit Acceptance promised to mail the item to my address in XXXX, VA. When it did not arrive by XX/XX/XXXX I contacted them again. They admitted sending it to an incomplete address in XXXX. I called them the next day and provided a fax number. They company alleged they sent the fax on XX/XX/XXXX at the end of the business day. They did not provide a confirmation number, and the fax was not received. This is causing a real hardship, because without the lien release, I can not sell my deceased mother 's car. I think this company is engaged in deceptive practices and they have been provided sufficient information to comply with my request on multiple occasions. My auctioneer who sold my mother 's personal property also had 0 success dealing with Credit Acceptance. At the time of her death my mother was XXXX and suffered from XXXX. There is no way that any person with any kind of impairment ( or even without impairment ) can get this company to provide requested information even when all the necessary information is provided.

Credit Acceptance has continued to try and collect on an account that I was told by a representative from their company that I was no longer responsible for. Upon receiving correspondance from another representative from this company, they try to act as if now they never told me that I would no longer be responsible for the balance owed after I returned the car. They have also been engaging in some unethical practices such as removing the entire balance that I do not owe after I disputed this account and then went back and changed the amount owed to {$3700.00}. If i was verbally told that the balance would be forgiven I feel it is very unethical for them to now go back on their word and try to recollect this money. I also do not appreciate the fact that after disputing this account, they reported the balance as {$XXXX}, and then went back and reported the balance as {$3700.00} as well as reporting several late payments, a repossession status and adding derogatory marks to my credit report and causing a large drop in my credit score. This is an example of them reporting incorrect information which is grounds for removal of this account. This car was voluntarily returned to them by me, so them changing the status to " in repossession '' is them lying. I believe that they are doing this to be spiteful and retaliate for me filing a complaint and I would like them to stop reporting this negative account to my credit profiles. I have attached a picture that I took from my credit profile showing that the account balance was reporting as {$XXXX} and then they went back and began reporting it again as {$3700.00}, which I know is illegally reporting inaccurate information and I want this account removed. By law, they are required to remove this account and I will hire an attorney if I need to.

Yes I have a car loan through credit acceptance. I have paid on this car loan XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. Through the mail. For as I don't trust this company with my bank account. My total car loan for each month is XXXX but every month I buy a money order for {$330.00} which is more than the car loan. I send it through XXXX every month on the XXXX because I am on XXXX and on a set income. They gave me a due date of the XXXX. I called this company and explained to them my situation. While I'm on the phone they are either rude to me a just blatantly lie. One gentleman told me he would up the payment to the XXXX yet when my bill came in it was still set for the XXXX. For the first three months I got no late fee and where I was paying XXXX I was knocked down to XXXX. Well come XXXX they tell me rudely on the phone I was over due. And rudely typed loudly and repeatedly insenuatuing that I need to be quiet. Exact words were " you need to hold on cause I'm explaining it to you. '' Then they was told you guys would be contacted and that's when the lady vigorously and loudly started typing and being very rude. The first three payment came in between 5-6 days and XXXX payment was over 11 days late. When asked why that was the lady rudely applied with the answer that they wasn't the mail carrier and that when the payment are received she can't help or have control on how long they are processes. I have read the reviews on this company and should have read them before the car loan but trusted a dealership would have not set me up with such a rude and hateful company. The reviews that show are true because that's what has happened to me. I need this car but I am terrified that I'm going to pay for this car and they pull another stunt like they've been pulling. I really need help.. Thanks

Due to that my car payment is showing XXXX late payments. XXXX Once we corrected and figured this out, we made sure to pay XXXX and XXXX to have this update ASAP ON ALL THREE BEUROS. I always paid toward my secure credit card debit which is the only item I owe for. XXXX now is showing XXXX and my usage at 50 % and XXXX at XXXX and 3 % usage! I paid XXXX twice to update my scores early to get the XXXX point needed to get that pre approval and for the loan officer to see my scores at XXXX. After paying twice and seeing the changes on XXXX XXXX points and XXXX, XXXX has XXXX not shown these updates! I feel as if XXXX lied as I was told they only have control over their scores, but promoted all THREE updating early rather than in 15 days!? Also after contacting and unlocking my online account on XXXX, I was told only a dispute will get them to update and report correctly? I am unable to dispute due to the fact that we are trying to purchase mortgage and my loan office said not to dispute anything! Please help me get this score to show correctly. I am playing down my secured credit card below 50 % now and everything else has be and show paid off or has been current! The medical bill is currently supposed to be taken up as I had insurance. I need XXXX or XXXX to be at at least a XXXX for us to both be pre approved and due to being uneducated, we were scammed when we attempted to buy this land contract and home and we are in a time crunch! Thank you! XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX

To Whom It May Concern : I was served with a lawsuit on Sunday, XX/XX/2018 by the law offices of XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX on behalf of Credit Acceptance. I contacted the law office the following Monday in hopes to settle the debt. They stated that they would mail me a financial statement to be returned to them. I asked the representative ( XXXX XXXX ) if they would cancel the hearing until we got this matter resolved. I also asked her would I still need to file an answer with the court with the 15 day period that was stated on the lawsuit and she told me no ( which was not true ). Had I not filed an answer they would have gotten a default judgement against me. Credit Acceptance declined my settlement offer of {$2300.00} and responded with a counteroffer of {$4700.00} on XX/XX/2018. I contacted Credit Acceptance on Monday, XX/XX/2018 to ensure that once the settlement amount is paid that ( 1 ) the lawsuit will be dropped and ( 2 ) this account will be reported to all three credit bureaus as settled in full with {$0.00} due. I have been told by multiple agents with Credit Acceptance that this account will report as settled with a balance of the difference of the total amount due. When an account is settled it is supposed to show a zero balance. I have asked to speak with someone in the credit reporting department and have gotten the runaround several times. I have asked to speak with supervisors and was told I could only leave voicemails because they do not accept calls. I am willing to settle this account for the requested amount but only if it is reported correctly on my credit report. If it is not reported with a zero balance then they can technically come back and sue me for the remaining balance which is not settling an account. Thank you in advance for looking into this matter.

I have been receiving constant aggressive collection calls from Credit Acceptance since XXXX XXXX XXXX threatening to disable and repossess my vehicle. My vehicle was repossessed XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and redeemed on XXXX {$43.00} represent partial payment for repossession fee altogether total of {$520.00}. They after I redeemed my vehicle did set a payment arrangement of {$300.00} of which {$19.00} was being applied to the remaining repossession fee. I had a family emergency in the month of XXXX and I mailed my monthly payment to them in the amount of XXXX which still satisfied my regular monthly payment of {$280.00} plus {$10.00} extra applied to the repossession fee. The payment agreement monthly schedule was to be paid on the XXXX of every month in the amount of {$300.00} until the repossession fee was satisfied. I mailed the payment out on XXXX XXXX they said that the payment was received late past XXXX the check cleared my bank on XXXX XXXX so that defaulted my payment agreement and they demanded that the remaining balance of the repossession fee be paid in full. I tried to explain to them the reason why I mailed my payment out on XXXX XXXX but they would not accept my explanation. I asked them could my payment agreement be reinstated and I would use the online payment method to make my monthly payments and that way the payments would always be on time. They refused to reinstate the payment agreement and said that my vehicle was in jeopardy of being XXXX because I have an outstanding balance. Since then I have been paying the {$300.00} and then I paid for XXXX an additional {$15.00} and for XXXX I paid an additional {$25.00} along with the {$300.00}. I am still continuing to receive collections calls from Credit Acceptance 3-4 time s a day the last time was today XXXX XXXX, XXXX

Credit Acceptance has violated my consumer right to privacy although I have made them aware that I did not and do not consent to the sharing of my nonpublic personal information to nonaffiliated third parties. They have furnished this account on my consumer report. They have violated my rights and multiple federal laws. 15 USC 6801 protects my right to privacy. 15 USC 6802, and 6803 obligate Credit Acceptance to provide me with the opt-out disclosures and obligate them to comply with my choice to opt out of the sharing of my nonpublic information. I have sent multiple complaints through the CFPB regarding this issue. I also sent an Affidavit of Truth to Credit Acceptance on XX/XX/XXXX. They have failed to rebut this Affidavit of Truth and instead responded with a " template '' on XX/XX/XXXX. Credit Acceptance claim this " template '' is a model for what they claim to have sent to me on XX/XX/XXXX. Credit Acceptance has provided nothing but hearsay. I also contacted the Maryland XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX about this situation. Credit Acceptance responded with the same " template '' that they sent to me. They only sent this " template '' after receiving my Affidavit of Truth with Exhibits which included a copy of the letter they sent to me on XX/XX/XXXX. Credit Acceptance responded they have not obtained a copy of this letter that they claimed to have sent to me on XX/XX/XXXX. I rebutted this response with the Maryland XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on XXXX but I have yet to receive a response from Credit Acceptance. Furthermore, Credit Acceptance has failed to comply with the Cease and Desist that I sent to them on XX/XX/XXXX. I requested they cease ALL communication.

My daughter and I purchased a car from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2018. The car is financed by Credit Acceptance Corporation. In addition an extended warranty was purchased for {$2400.00}. The extended warranty company is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX , XXXX We were given a generic brochure on the purchase date by the dealer and told the agreement would be mailed within two weeks. We never received the service agreement and called XXXX XXXX to inquire they said they didn't have a copy. I called Credit Acceptance Corporation and mentioned that I never saw or received the agreement. They immediately offered to send me a copy of the agreement. I thought it was odd that they had a copy, since they are a " separate '' business entity. We started having issues with the car and called XXXX XXXX several times with claim related issues. I called Credit Acceptance Corporation and told them I was having problems with the extended warranty. XXXX XXXX ( Credit Acceptance Corporation ) told me they had reviewed claims that I submitted to XXXX XXXX. I want to dissolve this relationship with Credit Acceptance Corp for the following reasons : 1 ) Lack of privacy with personal information. No permission was given to CAC to review claims. They should not have an influence on claims. XXXX XXXX is suppose to be a totally different company. 2 ) Had I known the '' two '' companies intermingled information, I would have selected a different extended warranty company. 3 ) The odometer reading on the extended warranty contract reads XXXX, the Bill of Sale contract with Credit Acceptance Corp reads XXXX. CAC/XXXX XXXX executed contracts with this huge inconsistency. 4 ) It is obvious that Credit Acceptance Corp and XXXX 's is one in the same. This is different that what's presented to the customer.

Someone working within Credit Acceptance Auto, illegally charged and stole money off 11 months of the entire car loan with them, ruining my credit, as well reporting false information as well. I went to an accountant and they came up with {$1000.00} in stolen money they charged if excess fees. They only charge {$5.00} a month in late fees, which is stated on the contract I have from them... They also did not honor covid assistance, reported late payments when they said they would not during covid, they also reported several times 30 days past due when I was only a few days past due. They also reported a past due amount of {$300.00} in XX/XX/2021, when in fact I was not!!! Balances should never go up but as one can see with the image I attached, it happened, their cap for a monthly late fee is {$5.00}, not {$10.00}, nor {$100.00} etc, I attached the proof of the illegal fees ranging from {$40.00} to {$100.00}, as well as the reported {$300.00} past due, in which one can clearly see, I was paid for XXXX and XX/XX/2021!!! Then they tried to cover it up by clearing what they reported in the XXXX report! That is attached as well ... Also the interest was already accumulated in the total loan, from the beginning of the loan, not monthly excessive fees because I was late or even on time from the 4rth month it the loan. None of this was in the contract, which is attached as well. This from what I read has been a common practice with this company over the years from lawsuits to complaints of the same nature! I also had to hire a Credit Firm to help with this as well as spend money for the accountant for this illegal nonsense! Also have many many recorded phones calls of lying straight to me, as well as a response from an Attorney they used, lying regarding this situation as well.

This is my second complaint against Credit Acceptance Corporation and their continual use of harassing behavior. I am a customer who has never sent a payment 30 days late since I obtained the loan with Credit Acceptance on XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a notice from Credit Acceptance detailing their intention to repossess my car. The letter was sent from them on XX/XX/XXXX. Here lies the inconsistency. Credit acceptance sends the letter on XX/XX/XXXX and the coupon book that I have in my possession states that if a payment is received after XX/XX/XXXX that I will be assessed a late fee which implies a grace period. On XX/XX/XXXX, I paid my car note in the amount of {$330.00}. I have advised Credit Acceptance continually of my intent to pay and I have been a loyal paying customer since XX/XX/XXXX. I have requested a copy of my late fees, which I am not in agreement with, from Credit Acceptance which I have never received. I believe Credit Acceptance is harrassing me in retailiation of my first complaint to Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Agency. There is not reason for them to have the intent to repossess my car when my track record shows my history of paying them. The past due amount stated on the notice is {$370.00} which includes my monthly payment of {$330.00} which was paid on XX/XX/XXXX and {$49.00} in late fees which I requested documentation for and never received but paid on XXXX. Please stop the harrassing behavior. Companies do not send letters of intent to repossess a car that payment is not 30 days late unless the intent is to harrass. Since the history of my loan with Credit Acceptance my credit report shows XXXX for no late payments which they indicated so why would they want to repossess my car. CFPB, I need your help to stop this harrassment.

My nephew purchased a vehicle in Alabama on XX/XX/2023. I reached out to Credit Acceptance Corporation, the finance company on XX/XX/2023, to make a formal complaint regarding the predatory practices regarding the purchase and loan. My nephew and I received both a telephone response and a letter on XX/XX/2023, after the company 's review of the complaint. In the letter, my nephew and I were told that the review showed that by signing the contract my nephew agreed to all statements listed within the contract. The issue with the loan contract was based on fraudulent information received from the car dealership where the car was purchased. First and foremost, my nephew did not have a valid driver 's license when purchasing the car which prohibited him from being able to obtain the insurance required for the loan. Second, the insurance listed on the loan application was provided by the dealership, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, and, not my nephew. The salesman at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX called and secured a fraudulent quote from XXXX XXXX without my nephew 's approval. This information was then provided to Credit Acceptance Corporation as proof of insurance ( and inferred proof of driver 's license ). I sent Credit Acceptance Corporation a copy of the quote sent to me by the salesman with his handwritten notes regarding the insurance information. Credit Acceptance Corporation also reviewed this information and after their review telephoned me with their response stating that there was not enough information to discredit the car dealership and that my nephew must adhere to the signed loan contract. I continue to believe that this entire process was predatory and feel that XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and Credit Acceptance Corporation have engaged in dishonest practices and possible coordination.

I XXXX XXXX had ownership of a car from credit acceptence and I traded the car in at a dealership called XXXX XXXX in XXXX, NewYork part of XXXX. The dealer I gave the car to at XXXX XXXX never paid off the car, He never cut credit acceptence a check for the pay off amount for the car. The dealer ended up robbing XXXX XXXX of all the files and car deals that he made for the company. So, he stole my files to the car and any evidence that I traded in the car owned by credit acceptence. He ended up consequently getting my trade in car from credit acceptence reposssed off of the XXXX XXXX car lot. He called me months later after asking if I had the car, he knew that I didnt. I went to confront him and he was gone, the XXXX XXXX vanished I arrived to find out that a different LLC had taken ownership of that dealership. I now am stuck with the debt of XXXX being negatively affecting my credit profile. I have spoken to several representative at Credit Acceptance in relation to this matter. I also had the attorney general of Florida file a complaint on this dealers conduct. Also during the transaction of trading in the vehicle in the year between XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX I requested that the president of Credit Acceptence get involve in this unfortunate event of my car buying experience, the president of Credit Acceptence bank called the dealer several time to try to get the dealer to cut the check in the amount of the trade in but the dealer at XXXX XXXX kept ignoring his phone calls, the president of credit acceptence did not make any notes on his attempts to reach the dealership on my account. I had paid the Car note prior to trading in the car owned by Credit Acceptance. I do not have any paper work to prove this complaint since XXXX XXXX vanished along with the dealer.

My ex husband took out a automobile loan in my name - after seeing it on my credit report he agreed to make all payments. We had a divorce settlement in 2020 which he took full responsibility of the debt. The automobile was financed under my name and social- it appears solely on my credit reports. At the beginning of the pandemic the company sent emails to consumers encouraging to call in and set up payment arrangements if necessary. I called in and asked to extend my due date to the XXXX - not a partial payment arrangement. She said that wouldnt be a problem. I asked her if payments would be marked late- she reiterated that it will NOT as long as it is pod by the XXXX. After years of paying - 4 months ago over 5 late payments appeared on my credit Report in the midst of a mortgage approval and three weeks away from closing. My credit score went from XXXX all the way down to XXXX and I will seek legal action if they dont resolve this. They are claiming that the payment for the XXXX was supposed to be a one time payment and that makes no sense, I record every call between me and this company after a bad experience with them years ago. I would like to upload the recordings along with my dashboard so that you guys can see the timeline of how they have been financially abusing my credit report as well as my loan officer can testify to this that this is complete consumer financial abuse by a company that is known to do this. They have no customer service, their representatives are limited educated individuals trained in collections. The judge ordered my husband XXXX XXXX to take over that and responsibility of this account, I sent in a copy of the divorce settlement and called in over a year ago - their response to me was that they have no department that deals with us.

I purchased a XXXX XXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXX in XXXX of XXXX. At the time being a single mother with XXXX young sons, one of whom was very sick I needed reliable transportation to get my son back and forth to medical appointments and I couldn't get a car loan anywhere else. The car I was driving had a rusted out frame. XXXX XXXX guaranteed car loans through Credit Acceptance so I took the loan because I had no choice. I financed approximately XXXX with Credit Acceptance Corp. Over the course of the loan I paid over XXXX. By XXXX of XXXX the car was rusting out and I traded it in. However the balance of the loan had to be rolled over into my new loan with a different company. What credit acceptance showed on their website as owed from month to month vs what showed as owed on my XXXX credit report never matched. The credit report always reflected less than what credit acceptance 's customer portal showed I owed. In addition during XXXX auto lenders were not supposed to report late payments as long as you contacted your lender and made payment arrangements. I contacted Credit Acceptance when I fell behind by two payments and made payment arrangements. They continually reported my loan as late. However, I stayed with my payment arrangement and brought my loan current. When I contacted Credit Acceptance regarding this they ignored me and failed to make corrections. Having a loan with Credit Acceptance not only harmed my credit because of their unfair practices and failure to make corrections when the reported inaccurate information, but I believe it also cost me thousands of dollars in additional fees that were not disclosed in my original loan documents. I would like the corrections made to my credit report now and to be refunded the amounts that I was overcharged.

I purchased my vehicle from Credit Acceptance Corporation in XXXX 2013. I recently fell behind on my payments by 45 days. On XXXX XXXX around XXXX XXXX XXXX. they repossessed my vehicle. I was supposed to be notified by letter 24 hours prior to this according to NY State law. The person who picked up my vehicle said to give him a call when I paid and I could pick it up after the loan company sent a release. I called Credit Acceptance immediately and was told I owed {$670.00} ( XXXX payments plus late fees ) I made and arrangement to pay on XXXX XXXX, which I did ( less than 48 hours later ). I was told by the loan company that I could pick up my vehicle and to call the towing company to make arrangements. When I called I was told that my vehicle had been picked up by the auction company that morning. I made 5 more calls to Credit Acceptance on Friday trying to locate my vehicle. I was first told it was n't at the auction house yet. I requested an address, which they said they could not give me. I was then told they could not contact them and Someone would call me back, which they never did.. Finally I was told that they were closed for the day and to call back Monday. I called 3 times Monday XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX finally getting my vehicle released. I was told it was now in XXXX, NY ( XXXX miles away ). I made arrangements to pick it up Wednesday XXXX.

It had a high monthly payment, but I needed a car to get to and from a part time XXXX position and was credit was not great so I signed. The beginning of the XXXX month the called stopped on an expressway ... if I did not pull over quickly, I would have been in a horrible accident. It was towed by this XXXX and I was told it needed a belt and alternator. They fixed it with no charge to me. Next, I am informed that XXXX went our of business and that XXXX ( located on XXXX, in XXXX., NY was now taking over for them. Now they told me I needed an oil change, some filter, etc and I paid {$160.00} for this since these items were not under warranty.This same thing happened again twice at about 4 months ; car was towed again to the XXXX since they took over for the defunct XXXX. I know it was electrical, but XXXX would not admit to it. Whatever they did to my car and would not admit, the car was OK ... no more stopping and shutting off. By XX/XX/XXXX I needed a new battery and paid over {$200.00} for it. This XXXX has ( 3 ) batteries, 1-in front ; l in the rear ( trunk ) and one running along the undercarriage which I was never informed about. Next by our first storm, I needed tires, all four for this car. By this time, I had this vehicle for about 7 months. If I keep this car ( on a 5 year payment plan for $ XXXX ), I would be paying at the end of 5 years, {$16.00}, XXXX for a car which I found out is only worth at max. is {$3300.00} On XX/XX/XXXX, this vehicle was rear ended by a snow plow ... the driver had no insurance for Business Use! Credit Acceptance wanted it fixed by who ever. I will have to take this truck and driver to court.

I was sold a truck illegally its been welded on the frames the welds are rusted and shifting on the frame, the first day I got it the differential broke so I had them fix it and they told me there was nothing else wrong with the vehicle. Got it back my headlights never worked only the highbeams, the clocking in the steering column never worked the a arm was also welded crooked onto the frame illegally, The swaybar links were bent so when we put new ones on the whole front end popped off and we had to put the bent ones back on, found out that the truck was dog walking meaning the frame is twisted, go to a mechanic who then put it on a highlift said that the truck was definitely in an accident and it was never reported Ive got pictures and paperwork from the mechanic end it says that its been in an accident. I get more than eight calls a day from their loan sharks, I went down to Arizona from Colorado to try trade in the truck and the guy at the dealership laughed at me in the face and said that I am liable for everything and Still try to sell me another lemon off of his lot. The check engine light came on two weeks after I got the truck back, hes also not willing to fix the truck as well. I asked them if they can just take the truck back because I didnt want it anymore and I wasnt going to pay for it anymore and they told me that it doesnt matter that they were going to still hold me liable for whatever the truck is worth after an auction. But that they were going to put the truck back on the street its going to kill someone because it is illegally welded on the frame it should be in a junkyard!!! Hurt my credit, Lied about the price, Bogus or hidden charges, Low quality product, Collections issues, Bad customer support, Robocalls, Won't let me cancel

Some recent identity theft has caused me to look deeper into my credit report. I have attached a screen shot of fraud alerts on all 3 credit bureaus. During this process I have noticed several inquires I do not recognized and are UNAUTHORIZED. One of them being by Credit Acceptance marked XX/XX/XXXX on my XXXX report. I tried to contact Credit Acceptance directly through certified mail on XX/XX/XXXX. The letter was mailed to the mailing address listed on my credit report. I have attached the certified receipt. It was delivered to Credit Acceptance XX/XX/XXXX via certified mail. It has been well over a month and I have not received a response from them. Thus I am assuming they have no such documentation to pull my credit. I do not recall giving anyone at your company permission to pull my credit. I have not applied for credit with your company. Please respond and include a copy of the application with my signature giving you permission to pull my credit, as per the FCRA. The application must state that I agree to give your company permission to pull my credit report. If you do not have an application with my name and signature on file, you are required by law to immediately contact the credit bureaus and remove the hard inquiry from my credit file. If you argue that the approval was given over the phone, then I expect a print out of the full details of the conversation be sent to me, as well. If you argue permission was given through an other company I expect you to provide documentation of that too. I have attached a FTC advisory opinion as to what is considered permissible purpose and what is considered " written instructions '' that are required by the FCRA. I request you provide documentation to meet this criteria. https : //www.ftc.gov/XXXX

I bought a car from XXXX XXXX on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. The vehicle purchased was a XXXX XXXX XXXX with XXXX miles. I drove the car home and it stalled on me and was hard to restart once I made it back to my residence. Once I got it restarted it drove a bit but was hard to restart once I shut it off and tried to crank it up again. The next day it barely cranked over after numerous attempts it finally caught. I received a call from the lending bank ( Credit Acceptance Corporation ) and they wanted to verify my information before funding the deal. I did not verify my information with them because of the problems I just inherited. So I spoke with the rep for XXXX minute or less on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. XXXX XXXX called immediately after hanging up with CAC and wanted me to call them back and verify my info and I said I could n't and was told to tell the bank I gave {$3000.00} for a down payment. However, I did no such thing. I gave XXXX XXXX a {$700.00} down payment and was scheduled to make another payment of {$500.00} for a down payment not {$3000.00}. They submitted paperwork to CAC stating I gave {$3000.00} in cash and that is a lie. CAC went through with the verification process without my consent and funded this deal and I have a account open with CAC where I am on the hook for {$18000.00}. This I found out after I took the car back to XXXX XXXX on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and told them I did not want the car because of the issues I had the first day taking it home. They told they would look at it and fix it but I told them do n't bother I do n't want the car anymore because the deal was not completed ( verified by the bank and I ). XXXX XXXX lied about the down payment I gave, CAC accepted the lie and I am told I am stuck with the product of a fraudulent deal.

Got van from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, CO on XX/XX/XXXX. I only had the van in good working condition for 4 months. Vehicle had warranty for XXXX miles. When I got the van, I drove home and the next day I notice the miles was wrong from the warranty contract. I asked XXXX XXXX XXXX to removed the warranty but I was told I cant but they did give me some money back. But thinking about it, it doesnt equal the amount of money it collected with interest. The reading on the contract had XXXX Miles on it but the actual miles on the van was over XXXX. The van transmission started acting up in XXXX, I called XXXX XXXX XXXX and told them about it. They said call XXXX XXXX XXXX, I called them and they told me to drop it off at XXXX XXXX service. I got a call from XXXX XXXX service desk, and was told XXXX XXXX declined the service and said I was out of warranty. I was told I would pay over {$5000.00} to get it fix. I didnt have the money and Covid was going on. I called Credit Acceptance and told about it. They said nothing could be done. In XXXX, I called Credit acceptance and did a voluntary surrender of the van. I paid the fee for the van and told XXXX XXXX that it was going to be repossessed and the company going to pick it up. Couple week went by, I get a call from XXXX XXXX saying the van still there and its collecting storage fee. We had no choice but to bring it back to my home. I called XXXX XXXX again, telling them the location of the van and its still parked here. I feel like they dont want to pick it up, they want to keep collecting the APR and late fee. I stop paying in XX/XX/XXXXXXXX and to this day it shows as open and Im being charged {$15.00} late fee each month plus interest. It also has been hard for my credit, I have 41 late 120 days.

I have never authorized any transactions with the following company ( Credit Acceptance ) As well as I do not have an account as defined under 15 U.S.C 1693 ( a ) 2 with ( ( Credit Acceptance ) of any sort. In regards to The company ( Credit Acceptance ) has misused the private/personal information associated with my personal consumer report by using my information for personal financial gain for the betterment of their company. They ignored my communications & refused to cease and desist obtaining my personal/private information from any credit reporting agency. The company refused to remedy the matter professionally without any trusted third parties having to intervene into the matter. In addition to the rampant fraud & identity theft the company ( Credit Acceptance ) keeps taking part in they refused to pay me the consumer/beneficiary the entitled payment that was compensation for the violation ( s ) that kept recurring. I also gave them written notice that if such attempts kept being made against me the consumer/beneficiary that there would be legal actions taken. And it should be taken very seriously as this matter is represented in a trust matter.

I took a loan out for {$15000.00} approximately in XX/XX/XXXX. The car payments were being made automatically out of my checking account. In XXXX I'm told that I'm being sued from credit acceptance XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, MI XXXX through XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, WI XXXX I told XXXX XXXX XXXX that I wasn't aware the payments were not being made. Granted I should balance my checking, but I know the amount of money approximately going on so I know I'm safe. I never received any notices from credit acceptance stating they were going to repossess the car so I was confused. XXXX XXXX XXXX set me up on a payment plan for {$650.00} s month. I told them that amount was too much they said that was all they could do. I wasn't able to come up with the {$650.00} however the next month I post dated a check for {$650.00} to catch up. {$650.00} is too much but I was forced that amount for payment. Now my case has been reopened. I wasn't treated right by credit acceptance when I tried explaining the situation. I never received any paperwork from credit acceptance. Upon my own investigation I found out that credit acceptance used my insurance agents address for my address. This would explain why I wasn't getting paperwork from credit acceptance corporation. If I was that far behind on my car payments then I would have received a car repossession. I haven't used XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX for my insurance in years. I can't help that the loan was set up with the wrong address. Please help me. It's not right that a company can say they tried contacting you and sent you multiple letters when they entered the wrong address in their system from the start of the loan. Then years later they lie and say they sent me letters.

On XX/XX/2019 I sent Credit Acceptance and XXXX XXXX XXXX Company a dispute letter disputing the repossession listed on my credit report and requesting all documentation pertaining to the repossession. On XX/XX/2019, I received a summons to appear to court on XX/XX/2019, at XXXX XXXX. On XX/XX/2019, I contacted Credit Acceptance Attorney who is representing them by the name XXXX XXXX XXXX. I spoke with XXXX to see if I could get the court date changed due to me not receiving proper notices and short notice to attend court. I did not hear back from her so I sent a response to the complaint that was filed against me to XXXX at XXXX and XXXX via email at XXXX and handle delivered a copy of the response to the complaint to the State of TN , County of XXXX. Next, I sent a SECOND NOTICE to Credit Acceptance requesting the repossession information that's supposed to be provided to the consumer by law. We appeared in court and they reset the date to XX/XX/2019 at XXXX. The attorney 's for the plaintiff stated that they had already sent the information out to me but they did not have the correct address on file the first time according to XXXX at XXXX and XXXX who verbally stated that all of the information had been sent at the time of collection to the other address at XXXX XXXX XXXX but not XXXX XXXX XXXX. The court stated they wanted to give them an opportunity to send me that information. They are attempting to sue me for {$10000.00} plus contractual interest accruing 10 % totalling {$870.00} plus contractual attorney fees {$2200.00} for a total judgement amount of {$13000.00}. This is the second attempt and Credit Acceptance have failed to send me the information requested pertaining to the repossession listed on my credit reports.

XX/XX/XXXX & XX/XX/XXXX, Credit Acceptance failed to report payment delinquency information on credit reporting payment history. Credit Acceptance is furnishing re-aged payment history reference " payment history legend. '' Credit Acceptance " Payment history '' does not show XX/XX/XXXX payment & XX/XX/XXXX delinquency. Per XXXX online credit file, Credit Acceptance is furnishing 120 days delinquent which is inaccurate and re-aged payment history. The account was delinquent since XX/XX/XXXX.

I have been on a payment plan with credit acceptance for years. I really had no idea how much I was over charged for the car by dealership due to only being able to use credit acceptance. No matter how much I struggle I strive to get ahead of the loan so it does not continue to ruin my credit. While on a payment plan I asked several times for late fees and previous repossession fee be reviewed. My remaining balance is XXXX. Even after putting all my income tax I am still XXXX is past due. I am more than 80 % paid with this loan yet if I ask for the past due to be placed in the balance instead of past due on my credit report I am Told they cant help me and I can not speak with any other department but collections. I have explained and pleaded with them that I am trying to obtain better credit to pay the loan off or refinance but with the past due always reporting it makes my efforts of paying XXXX bi weekly seem like I will continue to fail with this company my initial balance was XXXX and I only have XXXX. Left to pay off which is primarily fee I really feel the past due should be able to be negotiated better than a constant negative impact on my credit for over 5 years. I am spoken to with great disrespect when I call. I am told I can not speak with anyone about loan charges or options to get caught up with past due other than making the biweekly payments. I feel this loan is predatory and I was charged over an estimate of {$10000.00} above XXXX XXXX value of car and the dealership told me it was because or the rules of credit acceptance and my credit worthiness which is just predatory and wrong I am a single mother and I work really hard. I feel as a consumer these types of loans keep consumer like me in a low credit range.

I have disputed this item with the credit reporting agency and they reported you confirmed the account as valid. I honestly do not believe to ever have any relationship with this collection agency or original creditor. Also there are several inaccuracies with this account the way it's reporting and that's a total violation of FCRA and FDCPA laws and regulations. In a good faith effort to resolve the matter amicably, I must demand proof of this debt, specifically the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature, as well as proof of your authority in this matter. Absent such proof, you must correct any erroneous reports of this past debt as mine. I am writing to request that you please provide the following information : 1.

I contacted credit acceptance last month before my payment was due and explained that I needed to see if I could forward my payment to the end of the payments due to me not receiving my check last month. They told me I could instead pay them {$30.00} fee and they will extend out the payment over next three months after they told me they can not let that payment go to the end. I am in a forbearance with my mortgage already due to COVID and I explained that too them I paid the XXXX dollars and this month I have yet to receive last months due check and now have not received this months check as I have tried to correct this error I had to call credit acceptance again and explain that for the second time now Im last year and a half I have not received my check that I needed an extension or something. They told me not available and that my name and number will be put on the call list. Every day except Sundays for the last two weeks they call with an automatic system four and five times a day leave one message and keep on calling. I asked them to put a check on that since its a bit repetitive and they said they can not control who and when the machine calls out on debts owed. I said well that is a problem and illegal that once a week is more like a reasonable calling pattern. It still goes on four and five times a day. I have a call log on my phone showing times and lengths of messages. Its a bit to much. First you dont want to help out then when I do need a bit of peace and quite I get hounded by a machine calling me several times a day. I am done. I will pay as soon as my check clears my bank and I have actual funds to pay with instead of writing a bad check that cost me even more. As I am writing this they are even calling.

I called Credit Acceptance on XXXX XXXX2022 for payoff quote it was up to XXXX XXXX2022. Total amount was {$9200.00}. I called for another quote to possibly extend it until XXXX XXXX,2022. That payoff quote was {$10000.00}. I asked representative why so much, she said she didnt know, she asked my mileage at that time just as the first representative did on first payoff. On XXXX XXXX2022 I called back credit acceptance, paid loan off over phone with a representative. They did 3 transactions of {$2500.00} dollars and 1 transaction of {$1700.00} and also charged my bank account {$9.00} for each transaction. At that time once it was completed the representative told me I would be getting a refund for vehicle service contract I had cancelled that same day. He told me I would get letter in mail and I should get most back because I never missed any payments and Im paying off early. I received letter stating I would be a cancellation refund of {$1700.00} dated XXXX XXXX2022. I called on XXXX XXXX2022 asking status of refund representative then told me I would be only getting {$95.00} back that they put it towards what I owed. I talked to supervisor she said the 2nd quote representative didnt ask me mileage I said you record your alls she said yes I said then listen to it because she did ask me. She said she wasnt changing it. I paid all interest, finance charges, rebate charges. And paid loan early I believe I should be paid full refund. I asked supervisor how did they come up with the amount of {$95.00} because that was my weekly payment.She had no right answer. I kept asking her I pay a loan off a year and half early never late, and all interest finance charges and they try give me a lousy {$95.00}. I said they are crooks.

I sent Credit Acceptance a tender of payment in the form of remittance transfer from your very own payment book that you provided, XXXX XXXX payment ( 15 USC 1693o-1 REMITTANCE transfers ) by certified mail to which you indicated in the first complaint response, that you do not honor legal tenders as well as never sending them back to me, if in fact you claim that you did not redeem. ( 18 US code section 1951 ) Which also proves that your inaccurately reporting that you received no payment is a complete deception. ( UCC section 3-306 ; UCC section 3-307 ). Credit Acceptance continues to insult my knowledge of the Federal Law, Consumer Law as well as Color of Law and Private Law. Fist violating my rights to " '' no obligation to a debt that was fulfilled by my very signature as principal. HJR 192 PUBLIC LAW 73-10. Violation of 15 USC 1611. Credit Acceptance is trying to cover up the fact that XXXX XXXX XXXX committed fraud in several aspects. I have proof for the IRS that I indeed was given another consumer 's transactional receipts and contract. I also have proof that there was no email sent to me with the original contract from XXXX XXXX. They only send a copy of the warranty. I can prove that I never received a copy of the original contract as XXXX XXXX XXXX claims. XXXX XXXX was sent a copy of the information they provided me with which was not a copy of my original contract from our consumer transaction along with my rigjghts ( 15 USC 1692 ( g ). 15 USC 1692 ( e ) 15 USC 1629 ( s ).

I currently have a auto loan with credit acceptance since XXXX of 2016. It seem like they use bullying tactics to get their payments. I went to a In my opinion fraudulent scamming auto company to purchase a car in XXXX of 2016. When the told me I was approved they told me it was through credit acceptance. The never explained to my credit acceptance billing rules and regulations. They were instructed by credit acceptance to put an device I. The vehicle so credit acceptance can shut the car down when I payment was not received. During the time I first got the car I was working. Now I have a XXXX that has me on temporarily XXXX and payments comes twice a month which only comes out to $ XXXX monthly. I have called credit acceptance explain to them what 's going on and let them know my situation but they do n't even seem to care about a XXXX person all they want is their payment. Which I understand I do have the vehicle and it must be paid for. But if I 'm explaining what my situation is and is making payments when ever I receive my check they wo n't give me any leave way. There has been a time I was going for medical treatment and missed out on it because credit acceptance activated the device in the car which prevents it from shutting on for XXXX XXXX and some odd dollars that was n't paid. So it seem to me a person facing a life or death situation does n't mean anything to them more than their payments. They need to stop their bullying tactics and try working with their customers. If it was n't for that car being my life line I would just let it go. Like I said XXXX had that crooked car dealership let me know about this I would have never agreed to accept or sign off any loan agreement with credit acceptance

I purchased a car with what was described as in house financing, using XXXX references, a hotel address that i had been at for one day, while unemployed and having an interruption in my plans for a place of residence. The car dealership approved me. But misrepresented the terms for repayment. So I filed a prior request. The not actually in house finance company sent me a copy of the application packet they processed. From this I learned that my address, downpayment amount had been falsified and that they manufactured afditional references from their employees. Upon contacting the finance company, they told me that since they had responded to my complaint they wouldnt bother to address my concerns of fraud. They suggested contacting the CEO 's office again, and when I did so, I was instead told of his desire to have my front door kicked in. These sorts of threats on the part of XXXX XXXX make it very difficult to address the concerns with Credit Acceptance Corp . I am under the impression that their XXXX XXXX filing with the SEC describes their dealer purchase program where they allow dealers to utilize their warehouse lines to finance new loans and then immediately transfer up the notes. From the above I can surmize only that Credit Acceptance Corp actively encourages fraudulent practiced on the part of their dealer purchase program members, or would otherwise be more alarmed by reports of specific fraud. Additionally, as a XXXX veteran who has been adjuciated as insane, I fear that I am more prone to being targeted by such predatory corporations. While the purchase took place in a state with laws designed to protect the insane, it seems that thus far the state laws failed to prorect me as a consumer.

Credit Acceptance Corp is a fraud. They have been adding extra fees to my credit report and Ive been paying attention lately. They apply all the money to the interest. My loan amount was {$13000.00} I had {$3500.00} down deposit. After all fees extra. I was left with {$11000.00} to finance. Ive been paying {$350.00} for 4 years straight. I had a problem one time and missed 1 late payment they came to repo my car. I said my checked just got cleared and had to wait for the bank to open to get the money and transfer it to my other bank, because I didnt have a card for this bank. The people would not listen.. They came at XXXX in the morning. I tried calling credit Acceptance but they were closed. So they replied my car. As soon as the bank opened I went and got the money deposit it and payed them off. To remind you bank opened at XXXX and they opened at XXXX I believed. So the car was at the place for 1 hr. They charged me {$700.00} to release my car. I only was {$43.00} late. So Ive been requesting pay off quotes before the payments were made. I make a payment and then request another pay off quote. When I made the request for the pay off quote my balance was {$3900.00} cent. I made a {$200.00} payment. I went back after 1 day after that payment and requested another pay off quote now my balance was {$3900.00}. So I made {$200.00} only {$0.00} went towards my balanced and added more. They are fraud. One day I requested my payment history. The guy sent me a link which was blocked. They said I needed a password to enter the link. I called and said they sent me a link and I needed a password and I dont have a password foe the link. They said they were going to get back to me. Never heard from them again.

Ive been disputing with credit acceptance for years now. Now my account is supposed to be closed and they will not remove the account off my credit. I was told by previous reps that once the account is paid off or have no balance it will be removed. Now that they agree to close the account they are not removing it off my accounts. For years they have been reporting inaccurate information and Ive been disputing it. They recently said they closed the account and the status should change they also say I dont owe anything. This information has been damaging to me I couldnt get another vehicle nor a home due to the reporting of repossessions which in fact it was repo XX/XX/XXXX. They reported repossessions each year each month on my payment history after they sold the vehicle. Ive asked for it to be corrected and removed over the phone just recently. They dont want to do either. I believe they willingly and knowingly know that they have been reporting incorrect information on my report they just dont want to fix it at all. I spoke with a representative XX/XX/XXXX who told me they dont have to remove the account off the credit seeing that I dont owe them. Even through the FDCRA you can modified, delete or permanently block this information they said they dont have to remove it. They also willing and knowingly reported false information which caused damage to my credit report. Which under the 15 U.S.C 1681-2 1 ( a ) A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate. ( b2 ) A person shall not furnish information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if

To whom it may concern. My name is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Fl XXXX My SS # XXXX My DI # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I'm attaching copies of my SS and Driver 's license for verification purposes. There is a item on my credit report which I believe it's purposely being reported erroneously but it is hurting me tremendously. I purchased a XXXX XXXX from a now out of business car dealership, for the better part of two years, I continued to have mechanical issues with the XXXX, having to bring it to the dealer for repairs, finally after a year and a half, the engine collapsed, they refused to fix the problem I immediately called the XXXX XXXX, they completely ignored me, so I voluntary surrender the XXXX. XXXX stopped their collection efforts, and sold the account to Credit Acceptance Corporation XXXX XXXX continue to show this account as opened, and are reporting it as a late payment every month, and you know how devastating that is when you are trying to rebuild your credit. I'm not sure what the legality is of what they are doing, but I'm certain it's not being reported truthfully, yes I had a loan, albeit for a damaged car, yes I turned it in whether they categorized it as a repo or something else, but it should have been closed and perhaps show it as a charge of, I'm not sure, but then try hey sell it to credit Acceptance corp, and they are purposely misreporting it as an open account in order to hurt my credit even more. I am pleading with you to please correct this situation or perhaps if I'm wrong, inform me of how to best address this problem. I have hired two credit repair companies and all they have done is steal my money, please HELP. Respectfully XXXX XXXX XXXX

XX/XX/2019 I informed Credit Acceptance that this account did belong to me yet they delivered documents that were clearly result of identity theft as the application did not have my signature. Also requested a copy of driver license that was provided yet Credit Acceptance could not provide this as either. Credit Acceptance is continuing to inaccurately report incorrect information on to my credit file. Now I am requesting what date was such vehicle repoed and where was it repoed from. Also what remedies were used to contact me to make me aware of such. I am writing in regard to the above referenced accounts and transactions. This vehicle was repossessed by Credit Accpetance in the State of Texas on or about, a date that I am unaware of due to it was not my vehicle nor the signature on the contact is mine. However under the laws of the State of Texas UCC 9.506 and State XXXX and XXXX statutes a deficiency can not be claimed unless all of the required notices were properly and timely given, and all of the allowable redemption and cure time limits were adhered to. Please provide copies of the legal notices and proof of the commercially reasonable manner of the resale of the subject vehicle. If no such proof is provided within 14 days from receipt of this notice, the alleged claim of a deficiency will be considered null and void, and any continued collection activities, or continued reporting of this invalid claim on my credit reports will be considered a violation of the FDCPA and FCRA. In addition, if you singularly or severally fail to comply with the above requests, I reserve the right to seek damages against all parties, under all available State and Federal statutes and UCC - 9 remedies.

I purchased a used car for with a purchase price of less than XXXX. They used Credit Acceptance Corporation to finance my loan. The interest with them was around XXXX which was extremely high. I had major issues with the car. After the struts were done by the dealership, the car literally had to be welded back together due to the fact that it was too dangerous to drive. On top of this, they installed a Starter Interrupter Device on my car which I was not aware of. I was not informed of this, instead, I was told that there would be a system if the car were to get stolen. I found out that there was a tracking device that was put onto my car without my knowledge that was " wired '' from the pedal to the steering wheel. The problem is that the device was malfunctioning and becoming very dangerous for me to drive. I called CAC back in 2019 to inform them of the dangers of this and they would not give permission to the dealership to replace the device or remove it. The device became more and more dangerous and started causing electrical issues with my car to the poinXXXX I was getting XXXX XXXX from the pedals in the car from the wiring. There was literally a live wire coming from the device. I wound up in the XXXX and XXXX XXXX and have racked up over XXXX in medical bills and I have a car I can not drive due to the fact that it is too dangerous. The mechanics told me that the device screwed up the electrical system in the car and the one mechanic said that it had a live wire coming from it and that is why I was getting XXXX and XXXX from the car. These devices can be dangerous and Credit Acceptance knew about the issues and would not do anything to fix this until the car was paid off in full.

On XX/XX/2017 I went to a used car dealership XXXX XXXX Vehicles in XXXX, GA. The dealer ran my co-signers and Is credit which at the time was reporting in the very high 600s to the low 700s on multiple credit checks. I was told that because I had no auto loan score and our age that the only place that would accept me is Credit Acceptance. I received one of the highest APR rates, 22.99 % for a used car. To my understanding this was a consumer credit transaction. I later learned there was much deception in the contract. Upon reading and understanding law I learned that a consumer credit transaction can not include cash. Pursuant 15 USC 1662 ( b ). There was a down payment given of {$2000.00}, as well as a vehicle trade in during this transaction. I called the company multiple times trying to understand how they came across the numbers but, all I was told was that I had to speak to the dealer. When speaking to the dealer I was reverted back to credit acceptance. I was told Id be financing XXXX and I sat in front of a computer, directed to type in initials wherever XXXX XXXX directed us too. I was told I needed to hurry so the loan could process and me being a first time dealership lease user I trusted the process. I legally did not sign any documents with my initials, everything was signed electronically. I did not see anything explaining the XXXX rate, nor did any representative explain to me. XXXX XXXX also signed me up for services that I was not made aware of like GAP Protection ( {$920.00} ), and when trying to access this service I was given the run around on whether I had a valid policy. I was in two physical accidents, and couldn't access this GAP program I was already paying for.

In 2015 XXXX XXXX who is now deceased and can not face charges stole my identity and my daughters identity XXXX XXXX. He and his daughter pretended to be us and open this car loan with Credit Acceptance XXXX, he tried to open it in just my name until he realized I didnt have a drivers license and I dont drive so he took my daughters information. We lived in a family house at the time and he had access to search and get what he needed to do this when we were gone. Im tired of fighting this. XXXX XXXX is tired of fighting this. She reached out to his wife and she told the truth and made a complaint but Credit Acceptance pretended like they didnt know what she was referring to when she put the account number she was referring to in the report. These people have our names on this signed by someone else and just holding us responsible for something we had nothing to do with. Remove this fraudulent account from our credit report. XXXX XXXX is deceased and not able to deal with consequences of this. He wrote a letter or had his daughter write a letter pretending to be my child. How can you prove thats my child, its a letter that could have been written by anyone. She did not write it. We have no liability for this account and tired of trying to take it on. Credit Acceptance is a money hungry company and dont care who they hurt. When we are explaining to them how this happened and we did not do this because XXXX XXXX signed our names on it its automatically us. No show me us in there signing it. You cant because we were not there. Delete this account from my credit report report and XXXX XXXX credit report immediately. If I had a driver license I would not do business with a company like this.

I was approved for a {$35000.00} loan for a XXXX XXXX XXXX with XXXX miles on it at purchase time which was in the month of XX/XX/XXXX. My monthly payments were {$850.00} a month. I did this with the understanding that this would improve my credit and overall help me even though my monthly payments were so high. I managed to make it seven months. I had employment change which i called and they did not offer any type of payment arrangement for me at that time. I got behind on my car loan, I then called again begging for a solution. That when I was told that I just needed to surrender the vehicle. Which I did. My car sat and they just kept sending me late bills and no one ever came to get it. I called multiple times thereafter and at each call they were just seeking payment for my past due balance and I had to explain each time that I had already surrendered the vehicle a month prior. To which i went through the entire process of setting that up and still yet another two weeks went by. They just finally picked up my vehicle yesterday XX/XX/XXXX after I called wondering why it has taken three months and multiple calls to get my car picked up to auction off. I am very upset and saddened that I paid consistently an insane amount of money only to be told they couldn't work with me when i had sudden health issues and job change. Now I am not only out a large amount of money, my credit is ruined and I no longer have a vehicle of my own as a mother to children this is very discouraging. This was my way to rebuild and they made it impossible. There isnt enough help for us middle class people trying to live life by a number to have anything in life, a.k.a a credit score. Someone please help me.

When speaking to a representative within the company during the after purchase of the vehicle it was deemed we were sold a lemon vehicle. The vehicle after one month which was XX/XX/XXXX of owning the vehicle electrical system went out in the vehicle and the car locked anyone out from usage. Secondly once reaching out to the company they told us it was our own problem and that it wasn't covered under warranty, so we got that fixed once fixed the car transmission began going out as well as the engine in the car began giving problems. One time the car shut itself off during a drive and could not be started. This occurredXX/XX/XXXX and when reaching out to the company every time was told its not their problem or fault in fact that they will get their money regardless. On XX/XX/XXXX Was the final incident with the car when it would not start and the entire system locked itself out, we had been having issues over and over with the vehicle with warranties and the company just does not seem to help. The vehicle carried flood damage as well as it carried previous accident problems that was not informed and brought to us. The vehicle was still covered under warranty and still was not offered assistance and the finance company refused to help. When giving the car back not only did the company resale the car for over market value, we were not informed of the sale until a month later which it carried a balance they reported to the credit bureau that we were late. The remaining balance should not be due to the fact the company used the Gap insurance and sold the vehicle well over value, but still wants to collect when there is no need to. We will never do business with credit acceptance again.

The car was totaled in an accident back in XXXX. Credit acceptance was notified and they came out and saw the vehicle. The tow yard told me this NOT credit acceptance. This is my second complaint against them because they are still calling everyday! Sometimes 2 times a day I thought that when an investigation was going on they were not supposed to be calling? I am tired of credit acceptance calling. I can not pay them. I get XXXX a month! That is to pay my rent and eat and everything else. They want XXXX. So I cant pay them and eat too. I am beside my self here. I am about to be homeless. I have bigger things to worry about than if freakin credit acceptance gets paid right now. They didnt want the car back to try to obtain whatever Value they could from it. They left it at the tow yard. The 3 places I went to get a car loan was able to PRINT A SETTLEMENT LETTER OUT WITH MY CREDIT REPORT. Per the law this is harassment/offensive and embarrassing. Thats XXXX grand right there. They took a XXXX down payment from me. That is also illegal per the USC code. They have not recorded any of the payments I made correctly on my consumer report. They can see me in court where I will win. Considering XXXX other states are suing them for the obscene interest rates. They are collecting interest while trying to collect a Debt! You can not keep an open account while trying to settle your debt! This is illegal! I want this stopped! Every phone I have received is XXXX. So I will be counting up my paycheck from credit acceptance since they want to violate laws and think consumers have no rights. We are not so stupid after all! We have a community of us that are no longer afraid to stop this garbage!

CPFB complaint # XXXX was filed on XX/XX/XXXX regarding this matter. I purchased a car at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX with a loan from Credit Acceptance Corporation. The car was a lemon and had numerous problems, which caused me to be upside down. I made a decision to have the car repossessed with Credit Acceptance 's agreement. Credit Acceptance never honored the agreement so as of XX/XX/XXXX, I spoke to XXXX in the XXXX XXXX and XXXX at XXXX, extension XXXX, who advised me that the car is noted to have been at the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX location at XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, NY. Credit Acceptance said that they decided to not repossess the vehicle and that they could not provide anything in writing regarding the account status, the vehicle whereabouts and their decision to not repossess the car. However, they did say the ownership of the vehicle was still mine and that they could offer a settlement of {$2100.00} to close the account. For XXXX years, I have contacted both companies, Credit Acceptance Corporation and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and they failed to cooperate with me. I have contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX multiple times and have been given the runaround. I spoke to both administrative staff and sales managers, all promising that someone would get back to me. On XX/XX/XXXX, a person by the name of XXXX called me and left a message. When I returned his call, I was told by a receptionist that he no longer works there. At this time, I do not know where the vehicle is located, and I am afraid the vehicle could be used for illegal or unauthorized purposes. I was advised by my legal attorney to pursue legal action against them, since I still hold title to the vehicle.

I opened a vehicle loan with Credit Acceptance Corporation in XX/XX/XXXX. In XX/XX/XXXX, I paid off the loan full, with a XXXX dollar balance, thus closing the loan. The Credit Acceptance Corporation account remained opened and showing a balance due, so I filed a dispute with XXXX, XXXX and XXXX. I also filed a credit reporting dispute directly with Credit Acceptance Corporation to indicate that they were not reporting my account as paid in full with a XXXX balance. On XX/XX/XXXX, Credit Acceptance Corporation deliberately reported inaccurate and false information to the three major credit bureaus, in which they indicated that the account was still open and had a balance of more than {$7000.00}. I received a paid in full and lien release letter dated XX/XX/XXXX, from Credit Acceptance Corporation, in which they state that the account is paid in full, has a XXXX dollar balance and that they have released the lien on the vehicle. At the same time, they were still reporting false and inaccurate information about my loan account to XXXX, XXXX and XXXX, despite their letter to me and despite the fact that my loan account had been paid in full as of XX/XX/XXXX. After trying to resolve this several times directly through Credit Acceptance Corporation and through the credit bureaus, I got no where, and my credit report contains deliberately inaccurate information about my Credit Acceptance Corporation account. Credit Acceptance Corporation is knowingly supplying the credit reporting agencies with inaccurate and false information. My loan account is closed and paid in full with a XXXX dollar balance, and it should be immediately reported to the credit reporting agencies as such.

My brother XXXX XXXX XXXX ) went to a dealership ( XXXX XXXX XXXX used vehicles within Michigan ). I was suppose to be the co-signer of the vehicle. In which I informed him that is the only way I would sign the contract. We got paperwork I noted that the address is wrong on document and they listed me as the main buyer of the vehicle ( XXXX XXXX ). I told him that was incorrect and it needed to be changed. I was told that they changed the form to the correct format. I took his work for it and proceeded. Later while wanting to verify the documents. They never changed the problems listed. I was very confused contacted the dealership ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) and the company that accpected the loan ( credit acceptance within Michigan ). To hopefully change the document or void the contract and give them back the vehicle if need be. The ARP is also quite ridiculous. Additional Information : I was never there in person to see anything. XXXX : the vehicle in question to check the for faults, the salesmen/women that made the contract/ advised in selling, never drove the vehicle, I am across the country XXXX in the XXXX XXXX during all of this, and my brother crashed the vehicle due to a malfunction with the vehicle in question ( due to the brakes going out in less than 2 weeks of having it. ). From what I understand the place and company have been know to have malfunctioning vehicles in more than one occasion. According to some research I did. If you didn't get the insurance they offer during the purchase of the vehicle. They will make it so you will have to pay out of pocket to repair it. Know that it cost a lot, they hope to rack up late fee to get more out a consumer.

Credit Acceptance Corp reported my husband and I 30 days late on both of our credit reports. I called to ask them what happened because I had made a payment and it posted to my account and I had a confirmation number. Credit Acceptance traced the payment to our 2nd car loan account and found that the payment had been placed on the wrong account. Well our insurance also just paid off that 2nd car due to an accident from all the horrible snow we have gotten. Credit acceptance said that even though the payment went to the wrong account they couldn't open that account again and place it o the right account because the account was paid off and closed now. I spoke with a XXXX from Credit Acceptance and she said that she was placing a note on our file that her supervisor told her for us to dispute it and then when it is investigated the can let the credit company know what happened and that it was not late. Well we disputed it our dispute came back today saying that credit acceptance told the credit bureaus that it was true and accurately reported as past due. So obviously whoever did the investigation is just horrible at their job and not very thorough or the person working at Credit Acceptance didn't look into our file to see the notes they said they had placed. Either way, this company has violated our FCRA rights and is making false allogations because they can look into their system and see that our payment was made in to the 2012 XXXX XXXX account not the XXXX XXXX account like we said and then see the notes from previous phone calls that they are supposed to be taking as part of their jobs. They also said the call was recorded so there are those records as well.

They sent me a notice that my car was going to be auctioned off it did not say where it did not say what time nothing of that sort they didn't even tell me where my car was at I had to ask several times over I have been in contact with these people often!! When I asked the representative where my car was located she hesitated like she didn't want to tell me and then she went off with some other subject I said no wait a minute I want I need to know where my car is at because I have valuable stuff in there that I need and then finally she told me where it was at I don't know who they think they are but they can not go against the Michigan laws!! So much is wrong with this auto loan completely my complete balance on credit acceptance website is completely different than my credit report credit acceptance account says it's open my credit report says it's closed there's so many violations here I'm sickened I am going to send them a pre-settlement letter I am going to consult an attorney I know I am right here and they are completely wrong and they know they are I have tried I am so stressed out I am just going to consult an attorney I already hired Lexington law firm to try to remove the repossession so I can get another Auto but going through all of this I know what the going rates are for what your credit is and it's sure not 22.99 % I can tell you that and the next auto loan I get I'm not going to let them work certain fees into my loan and plus charge me interest that's not going to happen simple and plain but I'm in it to win it I'm telling you I'm not going to stop

Hello, I am trying to get to the bottom of this and I would appreciate a less combative response due to your last acknowledgment titled 'Final Response '. This is not an emotional response. So, please read attached files to clarify what I am requesting in regards to additional information due to the last report leaving me hanging with unanswered questions. The Retail Installment contract by definition is installment credit, meaning the seller ( Credit Acceptance LLC ) ordinarily exacts finance charges scheduling payments to be repaid in XXXX or more payments at regular intervals. Now, the finance charge to my understanding is the SUM of ALL charges in my consumer credit transaction. I am sorry to inform you that the information you are sending me is not fair and accurate and is in fact moving us away further from the truth. Allow me to get us back on track. In the contract it states I purchased the vehicle using CREDIT. Please understand I know exactly what I am stating- and it's the truth and I need to contact someone of higher statue who knows the truth about what is going on here. & I QUOTE " You have agreed to buy this vehicle from us on CREDIT for the total sale price ___ ... " So, to be clear I am very well aware that CASH IS NOT A PAYABLE TYPE- ACCEPTED IN ANY CREDIT TRANSACTION.. So again, why are you charging my debt card and not my credit card which is my social security card which funds ALL my credit transactions? Nowhere does it state that you have the authorization to mark any payment late under my credit card account period. Everything is already paid for with my social security card which is my unlimited open ended credit card defined by congress.

My complaint is that Credit Acceptance Corp has been reporting inaccurate late payments to the credit reporting bureau 's for the following months : XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX Back Story I was adversely impacted by Covid-19 XXXX of XXXX. Prior to Covid, I had never been late on my car payments. The moment my plant was shut down, I contacted Credit Acceptance Corp. to inform them of my financial difficulties and to inquire about payment options. Credit Acceptance allowed me loan relief in the form of payment arrangements, however, I recently discovered that they have been reporting me as late to the credit reporting bureaus. I have contacted Credit Acceptance several times to inquire as to why they would report me as late if I am making my weekly payments and I have been ridiculed, laughed at, dismissed and treated very unprofessionally. Additionally, I have petitioned all 3 credit bureaus to have the late payments removed and have heard nothing back. I have gone on Credit Acceptance 's website and they have not honored any of the verbiage contained within their own website as it relates to handling those impacted by Covid-19. I feel discriminated against. https : //www.creditacceptance.com/coronavirus-response Moreover, I am entitled to an accurate credit report free from errors and what Credit Acceptance is doing is just plain wrong and violates the CARES ACT protection as it prohibits lenders from filing a negative report about the borrower to a credit rating agency. Please help me remove these late payments and make Credit Acceptance stop this unjust practice.

XX/XX/18 : Saw a car listed on their website. PRICE IS CLEARLY {$8900.00}. Inquired about it and eventually applied for financing.XX/XX/18 : Received a call from XXXX informing me I had been financed. Told me the FINANCE COMPANY raised the price of the vehicle from {$8900.00} to {$11000.00}. I have another account with the company so when he mentioned the name I decided to hang up with XXXX and give them a call. This finance company had no idea what I was talking about! Furthermore, the finance company explained to me in detail why they have nothing to do with car pricing. I immediately called XXXX back, explaining to him I knew someone was lying. He transferred me to XXXX who made up a seemingly ridiculous story about finance companies " charging fees '' because I was a higher risk borrower. She stood by their claim that Credit Acceptance Corp ( who I have already filed a CFPB complaint against ) insisted on charging me a " fee '' of {$3000.00} in addition to requiring $ XXXX/monthly for 48 months on a ten-year-old car. Summary : Car original price = {$8900.00}. XXXX & XXXX tell me we have a deal with Credit Acceptance Corp. CA is requiring a " fee '' of {$3000.00} immediately added to the sticker price of {$8900.00} ( which CA denies ). I am told to pay {$3000.00} fee + {$2500.00} down payment + ( {$430.00} x 48 ) = {$26000.00}!!!! Again, it has to be illegal and unconstitutional to pay over {$26000.00} for a car originally priced at {$8900.00}. All of these subprime lenders and car lots are LIARS that just want to SCAM innocent Americans, forcing desperate people into deals they know are horrible and probably illegal. They should be shut down immediately.

I was sold a XXXX in XX/XX/2019 with Credit Acceptance & was told at the time that my card I was using through my work was an acceptable card to pay my loan. I set up auto payments & went about my business. Well 2 months later Im getting phone calls that my car is now two months behind on payments. Which my monthly payments were just over {$600.00}. So now they're telling me I already owe over {$1200.00}. I argued with them that i was on automatic payments & that there is no way im already behind. they said that the card i had on file wasn't a real bank card & they can't pull payments from it. So now they're asking me to come up with {$1200.00} on the spot plus my next payment that's going to be due. No one called when my first months payment didn't go through nor when my second. They were calling me when it was about to be my third month. The card I had at the time wasnt set up to be able to see what was being withdrew so I had no idea. They end up repossessing my vehicle & putting a repossession on mine & my gf 's credit score. & that is now on their for the next 7 years. They keep trying to collect money from me & even took my state tax returns. This company is HUGE SCAM & will do whatever it takes to get money out of you. They will ruin your score & any chance of actually getting a decent vehicle or even buying a home. All because someone couldn't give me a heads up that my card I was using they actually didn't accept like they had originally said & now I have to deal with the consequences for who knows how long. I want my justice & for my name, my now fiancee 's name & both of our scores to be cleared of the repossession that never should have taken place

NOTWITHSTANDING THE EXCLUSION PROVIDED BY CLAUSE ( F ) OF THE LAST SENTENCE OF THIS PARAGRAPH, THE TERM INCLUDES ANY CREDITOR WHO, IN THE PROCESS OF COLLECTING HIS OWN DEBTS, USES ANY NAME OTHER THAN HIS OWN WHICH WOULD INDICATE THAT A THIRD PERSON IS COLLECTING OR ATTEMPTING TO COLLECT SUCH DEBTS.

XXXX XXXX evades state interest rate caps and deprives consumers of the ability to make informed decisions, to compare financing options, or to avoid high interest charges. Under the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, the CFPB has the authority to take action against institutions violating consumer financial protection laws, including engaging in unfair, deceptive, or abusive acts or practices. XXXX XXXX obscured the true cost of its loans, subjecting me to severe XXXX XXXX and aggressive debt collection on loans its own systems predicted that I can't afford to repay. Under Section 47-14-103, the state legal maximum interest rate is ten percent per annum. Under Section 47-14-121, interest rate on money judgment is ten percent per annum. If the judgment is based on a note or contract fixing another rate of interest, the interest will be same as agreed in the transaction.Charging higher rate of interest than the permitted state legal maximum interest rate is usury. Under Section 47-14-117, any contract charging usurious interest is not enforceable ; in such contracts the lender can only recover the principal amount and the lawful interest. If it is found that the lender has taken usurious interest, charges or fees, the lender will have to reimburse twice the amount collected from the debtor plus attorney fees. I had to pay more than XXXX in shop repairs because the car broke down and the extended warranty was a waste of money this was a rip off all the way around the board. Credit Acceptance Corp is horrible. I even explained to them that I caught XXXX and tried to get the payments in default they said they didnt do it I even tried to refinance they didnt do that either.

I have repeatedly contacted this company since learning of this debt in in XXXX of XXXX. I expressed to the company that this not my debt I have never owned this vehicle and while further investigation of this debt I was told this vehicle has never been registered as well as the address listed on this account is a business address not a residential address. I was asked by this company to submit a report from Identity theft. Gov and I did immediately through the email Credit acceptance provided to me. This company has sent me a payment book in response my dispute dating back to XXXX. This account is being reported on all three of the credit bureaus as an open account with 28 late no payments. With not even one payment having ever been made. Thats preposterous why would this fraudulent account still be an open vehicle account with no payment ever made and not be repossession account. I have never in my life heard of a company continuing to report an account with not one payment made or repossession as an active and open account with 28 late payments each reporting monthly on all three bureaus. This is a fraudulent account this is not fair credit reporting and attached will be all of my documentation to them. I want this account in its entirety removed from all three bureaus on my behalf. I have and continue to have financial losses daily as a result of this account. XXXX XXXX Mortgages all have been denied as a result of the fraudulent account thats being reported by Credit Acceptance as my account. The signatures on the the account that Credit Acceptance has uploaded are all electronic signatures, they are not my signatures they are done by a computer.

In XXXX of XXXX, I was hornswoggled into a dubious and predatory loan by a XXXX dealership in XXXX XXXX, NJ ; in conjunction with Credit Acceptance Corp. Unbeknownst to me, they surreptitiously added several thousands of dollars to the loan that was granted to me, under the guise of an " extended warranty '' for a base model XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX with close to XXXX miles. The initial purchase price of the vehicle was {$8800.00}, with monthly payments of {$370.00}. For more than 2 years, I steadfastly made timely payments, but the balance almost remained the same. From what I gathered, my interest rate was over 24 %, which explained why I could not pay down the principal, even though I tried. This duplicitous contract took it's toll on me financially and left me almost impecunious. Out of exasperation, I was forced to have a voluntary repossession. It would have taken me about 15 years to pay-off the car, and perhaps, paid XXXX times the price of the car! Ultimately, after repossession, the vehicle was sold at an auction, without any prior notice to me. The date, time or location was never communicated to me. This totally negates New Jersey statute that stipulates that a lender must give at least 15 days prior notice to the Lendee, in the event of an auction. Credit Acceptance Corp. sent me a current balance of {$13000.00} and has also reported to the major credit bureaus as purportedly owed by me, after the car was sold. This subterfuge needs to end! I would like to partake in the class action lawsuit to, first and foremost, have my default status expunged from the credit bereaus ; and be recompensed for this finagling and underhanded contract.

Credit Acceptance Corporation has preyed upon me as a XXXX adult and continues to repossess my vehicle without first giving me the option to voluntarily meet in an agreed upon location as is required by Florida law. XXXX XXXX has charged me alleging that I must pay XXXX XXXXXXXX in order to now recover my vehicle. I only have XXXX payments remaining on the loan at XXXX XXXXXXXX. There is no way I owe this amount on an {$8000.00} vehicle when I was unlawfully required to put down {$4500.00} as a downpayment. This is the 3rd time this year Credit Acceptance has extorted me without showing me proof of what is owed on the car loan. Credit Acceptance has not provided me a ledger or an adequate contract that notes the amount I allegedly owe. Credit Acceptance does not have a valid security agreement nor a XXXX financing statement that would allow for them to hire a XXXX XXXX debt collector to steal and confiscate my car and narcotics within the vehicle. I am being targeted and coerced into being defrauded. Credit Acceptance shall not be allowed to oppress me while simultaneously and directly effecting my daily activities and my health as a whole. I am demanding proof and the immediate cessation of collection activities. Furthermore, Credit Acceptance continues to tarnish my reputation and cause me to be subject to prejudicial treatment as they continue to unlawfully report alleged late payments on my credit report when Credit Acceptance knows it does not have my consent not the authority to report such activity by law under the FCRA 15 USC 1681a ( d ) ( 1 ) ( A ). Remove the late payments and return my vehicle or I will be forced to take legal action.

XX/XX/2020. I entered XXXX XXXX I extended them via my SSN card, expecting a consumer credit transaction. ( You entered me in a empty and fraudulent alleged contract ) In turn my contract was filled with Truth In Lending Act Violations. See labeled violations 1. 15 USC 1602 wording like US and We isnt defined in Truth In Lending. The wording is intentionally deceitful and misleading in an attempt to confuse me as the original creditor. Also is an attempt to mislead me into thinking Im the debtor. 2. 15 USC 1605 Determination of a Finance charge clearly states the finance charge does not include charges of a type payable in comparable transaction, meaning there is never to be cash need or accepted in a consumer credit transaction items # 2 # 5 # 6 show I put {$1500.00} in cash in the transaction. Also # 4 shows I make monthly payments on a loan from Credit Acceptance Title 15 Chapter 41 does not define a loan I have no idea what that is. Im came in for a consumer credit transaction there is to be no cash involved. 3. 15 USC 1605 Determination of finance charge, also states the finance charge is the sum of all charges. So why wasnt my on insurance ( XXXX, XXXX XXXX etc ) including in my finance charge. Total payments # 3 show cash given out amount, but the finance show lower amount which is the sum of all charges right?. 4. 15 USC 1635 Right of rescission as to certain transactions, say the creditor shall clearly and conspicuously disclose, in accordance with regulations of the Bureau, any obligor in a transaction subject to this section the rights of the obligor in under this section I was never given disclosed of my right see attachments

A contract for the purchase of a XXXX XXXX XXXX was executed on XX/XX/XXXX with Credit Acceptance CorpXXXX providing finance. Copy of Contract Attached. A down payment of {$1500.00} was placed on the vehicle. The initial cost was {$7600.00} ( less {$1500.00} ) with a balance of {$6100.00} financed. A warranty was purchased ( {$1500.00} ) and GAP Insurance ( {$720.00} ). On XX/XX/XXXX, the vehicle was declared a total loss by XXXX. on or around XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX, a customer service representative from Credit Acceptance, advised me that the warranty was cancelled internally effective XX/XX/XXXX, and a refund check would be forwarded to me within 21 days in the amount of {$2500.00}. On XX/XX/XXXX, I spoke with XXXX, Supervisor, ext. XXXX to discuss the settlement breakdown ( attached ). Further I requested an estimation of when I would receive the above refund for the warranty. XXXX advised that I was provided with incorrect information and that they do not have a XXXX who is employed at Credit Acceptance. Further, there is no indication that I would receive my initial deposit back! This is unacceptable. Not only has Credit Acceptance refused to mark the loan as " paid in full '' but they have stopped me from getting a replacement vehicle and caused me to incur charges to rent a vehicle. I am requesting that the warranty refund and my initial deposit be returned to me immediately as well as any and all monies incurred for a rental vehicle from XX/XX/XXXX to the resolution of this matter as I can not afford a replacement vehicle until I receive these funds, They have delayed this matter for over 8 weeks.

This complaint will be the third and final attempt at resolving this matter outside of Federal Court. Laws Cited : 12 U.S. Code 1431, 12 CFR 226.15, 12 CFR 1026.15, 15 U.S. Code 1605, 15 U.S. Code 1635, 15 U.S. Code 1640. The response provided by Credit Acceptance Corporation to my Notice of Rescission was immaterial. Let me emphasize 15 U.S. Code 1635 ( 4 ) Applicability to indicate that the consumer credit transaction referenced is indeed able to be rescinded. This consumer credit transaction is not partied with an agency of the State nor is it a residential mortgage transaction. Also this credit consumer transaction was indeed consummated after XX/XX/1995. These reasons will render the referenced transaction the ability to be rescinded, subsequently placing liability and violations on behalf of the Credit Acceptance Corporation. Let the record show that there are various errors in the Finance Charge. Credit Acceptance wild be held liable for sai d errors. Please visit 15 U.S. Code 1605 when r eferencing this list of errors found in the Finance Charge. 1. Finance Charge did not include premium for Insurance. 2. Finance Charge being the sum of all charges payable yet Finance Charge reads {$10000.00} in contradiction to Total Sale Price of {$26000.00} and {$13000.00} itemized. 3. Coerce consumer with fraudulent bills to pay principle which is not included in the Finance Charge. 4. Cash down payment included in Finance Charge in referenced consumer credit transaction. Please be encouraged to have your legal team thoroughly review the cited laws prior to responding. This is the final attempt at resolution outside of Federal Court.

I was basically scammed into buy a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for {$10000.00}. The dealer, XXXX XXXX XXXX told me initially offered me a really nice XXXX, and then told me the grand am was all I could get. My partner had just passed his family took the car we just bought and I had to get my XXXX to school. They told me they'd accept {$1000.00} down but to not mention this to the creditor. I agreed to pay {$6000.00} for a {$2000.00} car because I was desperate. The windows immediately stopped working. Then the wheel bearings and tie rods went. I tried to use the lemon law, but the car was too old. I was forced to open a XXXX XXXX credit card and max it out. The loan ended up being {$10000.00}. I was unable to afford daycare to continue working. The car was stolen and destroyed. XXXX didnt cover the repair. I ended up losing our home. I tried to get it fixed through XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and put {$200.00} down. The car was not worth the repair, so I agreed to allow Credit Acceptance to repossess and I was told they only got {$150.00} for the car which went toward my balance. This was 4 years ago. Suddenly they are reporting recent missed payments which took my credit score down 130 points making it XXXX. They have claimed it was charged off 28 times. This company has multiple complaints against them but nothing is done and it is not right. I do not have the car. I cant refinance the loan. I cant afford the payments they want, and I shouldn't have to pay a penny more for this scam than I already have. I need a vehicle. I am a widow and a XXXX. I need someone to help me get this off my report so I cant get a reliable vehicle and get on with my life.

XXXX XXXX XXXX used deceptive practices to issue an auto loan to me and my husband. After complaining to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX used Covid 19 Pandemic as an excuse to their predatory lending practices stating that the courts weren't open and further more lied by stating they pleaded with an Attorney to put a rush on having some documents signed. Not sure how many times this company has been deceptive to the public but we brought the XXXX in XXXX not XXXX so the information they are providing as an excuse is completely false. The full response is with the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and is completely false. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX originated this loan and then sold it to Credit Acceptance Corporation for monetary gain. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX did not act in the best interest of me and my husband as consumers but instead originated a loan so that Credit Acceptance Corporation could reward them with bonus checks for how much money the would be projected to make off me and my husband. Credit Acceptance Corporation uses software to project how much money they would make off of loans that are originated for consumers that could not offer them by tacking on unnecessary products/items. Credit Acceptance Corporation knew that me and my husband could not offer this loan through probability factors but still accepted it knowing that we would default, messed up credit score and ultimately end in reprocession ceasing wages and having to start the rurally cycle over because at the end of the day consumers need vehicles no matter what credit score, they have. CFPB and New York Attorney General are currently XXXX XXXX for being deceptive to consumers.

I sent credit acceptance a debt validation letter ( letter attached ) asking for debt validation on XX/XX/XXXX. They received the debt validation letter on XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX credit acceptance hired a repo company to seize my private automobile on my private property. I did not receive any notices in the mail from the repo company giving me rights to dispute the debt they was collecting on. I also did not receive any documents in the mail from credit acceptance saying the repo company was collecting on a debt and could arrive on my private property.Under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, I have the right to request a validation of this debt. I requested that they prove that I am indeed the interested party who is contractually obligated to pay this debt. While i was in dispute credit acceptance sent a repo company to seize my private automobile which is a violation and i highlighted on the debt validation letter attached to cease and desist until they provide proof of an alleged claim.They did not provide proof of their claim and I have attached the documents sent on XX/XX/XXXX ( letter attached ) which was after they seized my private automobile while in dispute. They did not send me copies of the original contract i asked for in the letter and did not provide A copy of the contract that shows that there was an offer made, mutual acceptance, terms and conditions, consideration and the two wet-ink signatures of both parties who have voluntarily entered into a legally binding contract. Also they need to provide proof to the cfpb they are allowed to collect in my state.This company is in violation of FDCPA 805,806,807,808,809.

My first issue is with XXXX ( XXXX XXXX Card ) I opened a card XX/XX/XXXX. I made my payments on XXXX-XXXX for XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX for XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. I went to use my card at XXXX and it didnt work. I tried to call XXXX but was referred to a collection agency XXXX. At that point XXXX would not take my calls. I HAD to talk to the collection agency. I was horrified to find out that NONE of my payments were credited. I made my payments over the phone and received confirmation numbers. I WAS NOT NOTIFIED that my payments were not crediting. The collection agency told me that for the XXXX payment my account was frozen and the first 2 payments didnt credit because I didnt call my bank to give them a heads up? What? That conversation was XXXX at XXXX am. The first person I spoke with told me that they dont take pre-paid debit cards. Again, no notice My second issue is with Credit Acceptance and my car payment. I had automatic withdrawals from my checking account set up and this last payment for XXXX was supposed to come out on XX/XX/XXXX ( due date is XXXX ) I was told that if I could set up my payments for the XXXX and I would not be making late payments. Then I call them because my paycheck does not go into my account until 4-5pm and I was told that not only would I have a 30 day late on my credit but every single payment I have made has been late! I am devastated. I have been working with XXXX XXXX XXXX since last year and they successfully brought my score up and in a matter of 10 days my credit score has dropped 97 points. I need help! These companies could care less. I cant even reach XXXX at all, just the collection agency.

In recent publications XXXX XXXX, thats published on the CFPB websites states more evidence in what I been claiming towards CAC ( Credit Acceptance Corporation ) that the loan agreement was fraudulent and certain documents wasnt disclosed to me nor mailed and they denied helping me understand my Truth In Lending. I came to find out about the hiding interest fees they sent me after months of me disputing my contract. They mailed me a payment document that prove that I had no idea on these hidden interest fees.Also in the contract I asked about the security interest and stated in my complaint I wasnt informed about any of this which is more proof I was uninformed when I signed this agreement. I also arise with this company about their fiduciary responsibility that was also breached after they denied my IRS approved 1099a, also other instruments Ive submitted in Good faith to clear the debt and CAC denied me of the goods and services that they were contracted to provide to me. They have violated the TILA, FDCPA, GAAP, and my Civil Rights discriminated against me for using my rights. Credit Acceptance Corporation violated the Martin Act by engaging in fraudulent and deceptive practices making false and misleading representations and omitting to disclose and concealing material information in disclosures it made and cause to be made to investors and other in the course of the issuance and sales of securities in California and elsewhere. Credit Acceptance Corporation also took their time waisting my time sending me a identity complaint packet for the forgery of XXXX XXXX name on contract by XXXX XXXX XXXX and Credit Acceptance Corporation.

On XXXX XXXX XXXX, I paid the agreed upon settlement amount in full for Credit Acceptance Account # XXXX. Per the settlement arrangement, Credit Acceptance agreed to update my credit report and send us the lien release ( for title ). On numerous occasions ( via phone and in the Credit Acceptance online portal ), Credit Acceptance confirmed ( and showed ) the " XXXX balance '' as per the paid settlement agreement. Despite payment in full, on XX/XX/ and for the next three months, Credit Acceptance continues to show a balance as {$13000.00}. My wife and I called and asked Credit Acceptance to properly report the balance on all XXXX credit bureaus. They refused. I was told that even though they see the XXXX balance, it's not their obligation to report that to the credit bureaus unless we file a complaint with Credit Acceptance in writing which could take 30 days. When I stated this is a Fair Credit Reporting Act violation, they said it's not because they only update balances when consumers file a written complaint. Even if this was their internal process for " closed accounts, '' what makes this an intentional violation is that Credit Acceptance reported the wrong balance and status on XX/XX/ on my " closed account '' despite their internal system showing a XXXX balance. To date, Credit Acceptance refuses to properly report my balance and update the status of this account on any of the credit bureaus. They have ignored my requests to report this accurately. It is causing an extreme financial hardship on me and my family. I am the primarily bread winner in my family and my credit has dropped almost XXXX points as a result.

On XX/XX/XXXX I took out an auto loan with Credit Acceptance Corp. Sadly I had to voluntarily surrender this vehicle because the condition of the vehicle and the necessary repairs far outweighed the value and monies owed on the vehicle. In XX/XX/XXXX the same subprime lender approved me for the purchase of a far superior vehicle. I submitted to the dealership the application as well as any and all requested documentation. All was going well until my sons college requested a tax account summary from the IRS from me. I needed to get this online immediately. In order to do this you needed a car loan or mortgage. I called Credit Acceptance for my account number and was told I didnt have an account for the newest car I had been making payments on. I finally found someone with a brain and she looked up my account by the VIN number. Turns out the second account was opened up with the wrong social security number. So I have the negative account being reported that i owe money after a voluntary surrender but the new loan with over a year of perfect payment does not show up. If you look up the credit reports under the fictitious social security number you will find a rather nice credit score and the positive account listed. I've contacted them constantly. They want me to just blindly fax my social security card to a generic number going to no ones attention. This scares me. They even deny reporting the second account to the credit bureaus under the wrong number. I filed a complaint with the XXXX and received a response from the supposed legal department but the number she gives me to call her is a number where you can not speak to anyone

Dealer agreement with Credit Acceptance reguarding implied warranty being overlooked by Credit Acceptance for this case. Is online to see. 6 ) Last response lied and all capabilities to get information on account status, payoff suspended right after submitting a false respone that is available and current. 7 ) Calling Customer Service and they refuse to answer any questions requarding account and said will only send letters. 8 ) Stated polies and procedures to prevent high mark ups in place but failed to state what and provide system uses to have prevented.

I took out a auto loan with Credit Acceptance Corporation in XXXX, due to their lack of paperwork, this did not start reporting on my credit until XXXX. I done a vountary repossession on the vehicle in XXXX of XXXX. They auctioned off the vehicle after the repossession. They continue every single month to report this account as " Open '' rather than " closed '' or " charged off ''. They continue every single month to report a late payment for the 65 months. They also have an off the wall out of state address that I have never been associated with in Louisiana. In addition to the balance being incorrect because they have never applied the auction funds to the remianing balance of the loan, they also report the account as repossessed, late, repossessed again, then back on track, then repossessed, then charged off, then late again. Its absolutely absurd. I have worked VERY hard to fix my credit, this is the only negative account holding me back. It has now been 7 years since this account had its first missed payment and has been repossessed. This also goes against my debt/income ratio and prevents me from further auto loans because it looks as though I have an open auto loan. I have disputed this account for YEARS due to inaccurate information and the credit bureus refuse to fix it. Credit Acceptance does not respond to any letters that I have sent to them directly verifying any information I have asked for. I am asking for this to be removed from my credit report, as the inaccurate information being reported, the failure to respond to my verification requests all go against my rights under the XXXX. Please help me!!!

I put 50 % down on a {$21000.00} vehicle. It was my first purchase and was instructed that I only owed {$18000.00} after dealership fees. So far I paid {$20000.00} on my vehicle in total with the down payment. I am told that I still owe over {$32000.00}. I was told that I had a balance on top of a finance charge. I sought out advice from a third party to explain my contract to me and it wasn't until after my car was repossessed that I got a clear understanding of what it is. My car is on it's 3rd repossession. The first repossession, I had to travel 2 hours at 9 months pregnant to retrieve the vehicle. When I retrieved the vehicle my right back wheel arch panel was missing. After the second repossession all of my car 's interior panels were removed, keys deactivated, and damaged caused on the same exact side. Prior to the third repossession a representative told me as long as I made active payments, even if it wasn't the full amount my car wouldn't go into repossession. Four days later I took my infant from the vehicle and as I was walking into the building, a head hunter hooked my vehicle to his pick up stating that my car was on an app that said my car was " marked with a bounty. '' I called credit acceptance immediately and was told if I paid a about {$600.00} that they would stop the repossession. I didn't have it because I was starting a job days later. I don't have the exact dates and times because I didn't keep a record, I didn't know I had to. My car is set to be put on the auction block and I'm not sure who can help. I saved 4 years for that down payment and budgeted accordingly, I can't lose this vehicle.

After my last complaint against Credit Acceptance, I was able to enter the Covid Relief Protection plan. The plan stated that I would have 90 days where I would not have to pay anything so that I could get back on track. After the 90 day mark was up, I would have to pay the original amount of the monthly payment each month, within a 30 day timeframe. In other words, once I started paying the loan back XXXX XXXX ) I would have between XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, without consequence, to make the payment. If I continued to make the payment as instructed, I would be allowed to stay on the plan. The plan does not stipulate that I need to make a payment arrangement and it does not say that I need to pay for any amount of the loan that is already in delinquent status while on the program. In XXXX, I began making the payments as instructed. Each month after the payment was made, I began getting up to 10 calls a day telling me that I needed to enter into a payment arrangement. When I informed the agent that I was on the Covid Relief plan, I was told that even though I was I needed to enter a payment arrangement to 1. get the delinquent amount caught up and 2 to make sure that I am paying " on time '' or I will continue to get calls. I was not informed that the company would continue to mark my credit as 120 days or more past due. When you read the guidelines of the Covid Relief plan on their website, this is in total disregard to what the plan actually stipulates. I need assistance with getting this corrected. I am doing the best that I can, yet I am still being harassed, and I am still suffering under this company.

First up I was never given my interest rate on this loan but once I had a problem than I found out it was 28 % or more and than included coverage for repairs. It was a used car and I didn't even had for a year the suv year was a XXXX and I went to a gas station and it started smoking and I had it towed!!! When I got in contact with Credit Acceptance the mechanic called them and he was told what they wanted him to do to find the problem with no guarantee they would pay him and then Credit Acceptance gave me the mechanics they deal with. Had it towed again and the mechanic did what they told him and told him they were not going to pay normal wear and tear!!! He said the mileage was turned back and the engine number was scratched off!!! I than connected them and told them. I than wrote a letter registered mail to pick it up and I was voluntary returning it back to them. They in turn called the mechanic and told him they didn't want it. But he followed their instructions. I than got the attorney General office in DC and while I was on the line their Lawyer said they didn't want and do anything they want with the suv. They couldn't make any money off. The attorney General office said the insurance coverage that they had on the car people have had the similar problem and they say the same answer normal wear and tear. I had stayed on oil changes etc... They keep harassing me constantly!!! I want this removed off my Credit Report it's been XX/XX/XXXX and so many days they Report I'm so many days over due!!! It's an illegal practice they are doing. I'm XXXX and XXXX XXXX!!! I don't owe them anything!!! They owe me!!!

I have been a customer with Credit Acceptance Corporation since XX/XX/XXXX. My XX/XX/XXXX used vehicle is unfortunately financed through them. I have XXXX and have recently been undergoing XXXX. I had a payment that was due on XX/XX/XXXX. My next payment was just due on XX/XX/XXXX. A few days ago I called and spoke with a rep and Supervisor on XX/XX/XXXX and told them I was in the hospital and asked if they could give me an extension until the end of the month to catch up payment. They said no and that the disabling switch to cut off the car would go into effect in a couple days by XX/XX/XXXX if I didn't make at least the payment if {$290.00}. I asked if they could put that one payment at the end of the loan due to the circumstances and stated that they do not provide that option. So if you get sick you loose your car. They will disable it from starting and start the repo process. It does not matter how many years of payments you've invested into paying these people. When I purchased this car the dealership stated this was one of the lenders quick to say yes but you don't know how bad the lender is until you start dealing with them. With no options for customers when they have a financial hardship especially due to sickness this lender is not providing consumers with good car loans. They are simply in business for profit and could careless about the consumer. This company needs to be investigated for its practices for no options for consumers to put at least one payment at the end of their loan or the ability to make even a partial payment. Consumers get XXXX with company. They need to fulfill my request.

In 2019, I opened a auto loan with Credit Acceptance Corp. During the signing, the dealer acted as if he was doing me a favor due to me having horrible credit. As a XXXX XXXX XXXX single mom, I knew nothing about interest rates or credit. So I blindly believed him when he mentioned I had been approved. I believed he helped me, only now to discover he fraudulently fixed me up with a huge interest rate loan with Credit Acceptance Corp, a loan I should've never been approved for. Recently, I've decided to look over my credit report and realized that the balances they have listed on my report do not match the balances Credit Acceptance Corp has on my contract. This led me to look over my contract for my vehicle completely. I was surprised and shocked to realize I have a 22.99 % interest rate. This was never explained to me and exceeds the maximum interest rate allowed in my state. I have payed thousands for an extended warranty that the dealer led me to believe was necessary, but states on the contract it is optional. The contract has me ( the buyer ) as the co-signer and my actual co-signer as the buyer. Credit Acceptance has made my life extremely difficult these past few years, due to me having to choose between paying my loan or rent. I had to go without important things just to pay them, and even gave my entire work check to this loan for years.They harass me daily with a minimum of 10 aggressive phone calls. I have already payed over {$21000.00} and they are still attempting to try to collect thousands from me. I am a victim of Predatory Lending. I have proof of everything i'm stating in this complaint.

They failed to id me with my state identification numbers, Dear Credit Acceptance, I am writing to request the return of my title and settlement funds in regards to the fraudulent transaction against XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. It has come to my attention that your company did not operate in accordance with the Truth in Lending Act 15 USC1681, and furthermore did not report my credit fairly. As you are aware, financing charges can only be paid with money in hand. I did not receive any money in hand and instead signed a contract which was not the full contract that I had seen on the Credit Acceptance website. Additionally, I did not receive my car as part of a proper consumer to credit transaction. Therefore, I am not liable for the debt that is required, are contract is null and void due to the contract being fraudulent. Given these circumstances, I am requesting the return of my title and settlement funds. I would like to settle this matter through our abbreviation clause. Please let me know how we can proceed with this, I extended them the credit they claim to have loaned me. I am a sovereign entity. According to Congress fraud is anytime a Person ( Corporation ) transfer, traffic, or transport your Government Authentication feature for value! 18 usc 1028d ( 1,3,9, 12 ). Also i did not consent for any company to use my data using a SSA-89 it's fraud. Irs Publications 4681 states that all charge off are income.. How I still owe a debt that was written off as income. I also didnt put a down payment of XXXX that is false. Which makes the contract false. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

In XX/XX/XXXX, I had a car financed through Credit Acceptance Corporation and it was declared totaled in XX/XX/XXXX by the auto insurance company. The insurance company paid the payment for the car. I spoke to a Credit Acceptance Corporation representative ( with a nasty demeanor ) in XX/XX/XXXX. I told him that I did not believe I did not believe I owed any more funds on the vehicle because the loan was paid off early. The representative stated that I still had a balance due. I inquired about the Extended car warranty and the Gap coverage that was added to the loan and was it pro-rated and removed from the balance. He mentioned that was the gap coverage was removed & I was issued a credit towards the balance due only. I requested a verification and statement of transactions and the amount that is due. He said he would email it to and verified my email address. Credit Acceptance Corporation does not mail me any statements or communications regarding this car loan and never have. As of today, XX/XX/XXXX, I have yet to receive any mailings or emails from the Credit Acceptance Corporation regarding the auto loan, however, they call me daily requesting payment for a vehicle that was paid off by the car insurance company. and they are reporting the loan is delinquent to all credit bureaus. If I owe the loan after it was paid off, why won't they send me written documentation of the balance due and details of the payments they received? How could this company harass a customer for payment without validating or verifying the debt when requested and report derogatory information to credit bureaus?

I filed a dispute through XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX to receive physical verification of my original instrument of indebtedness via certified US mail on XX/XX/2018. I received an electronic response from XXXX XX/XX/18 through my credit monitoring account that this account has been updated without sending me any physical verification. Credit Acceptance has placed erroneous late payments, an inaccurate account status, and an inaccurate loan balance on my XXXX credit report. XXXX has asked me electronically " why I want to dispute this account '' electronically when I specifically told them I want all correspondence to be by US mail. The question also makes no sense as I already told them why I was disputing this in the letter that I sent : " According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( hereafter referred to as " FCRA '' ), Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), you are required by federal law to verify through the physical verification of the original signed consumer contract any and all accounts you post on a credit report.

Your failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit. Under the FCRA, unverified accounts must be removed and if you are unable to provide me a copy of verifiable proof, you must remove the accounts listed below. Please also remove all non-account holding inquiries over 30 days old. ''

I co-signed a vehicle for my sons dad the car company that sold him the car knew the car was a bad car. The tires went out on the car a week after he got it and the loan that was taken out for the car was way too much. I was not physically there at the dealership with him to know that they allowed him to leave off their lot without having insurance on the car or how much the car actually was. If I was I would have never e-signed for the loan. Now the car is totaled and it is stating that there is insurance on the vehicle but he never put insurance on the car and neither did I. I have been asking the lender for information or to just take my name off of the loan because it is affecting my credit but no one is trying to help me. A lady I spoke with over the phone told me that someone from the dealership physically told her that he was going to get XXXX on the vehicle when he got home but he has never had XXXX ever in his life. I am looking for some help because I believe that there were some type of fraud that was done with the process of him speaking with the dealership and them helping him get plates and insurance for the vehicle that was never provided to the lender company for them to even get the okay to give out the loan. I have spoken to the owner of the dealership and she suspects it to be some type of foul play on their end as well. But she has still yet to contact us about whatever information she was suppose to be looking for or calling around to see what and why we still havent received any information about the license plate being bad or non-transferable after the accident.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I woke up and seen that my XXXX XXXX XXXX was missing. My heart dropped because I had a car stolen from my house before. I called the police and reported it stolen. Later that day, the XXXX police told me that my truck has been repossessed. I brought the truck on XX/XX/XXXX from the XXXX XXXX Police auto auction. I paid for it in full and have a clean and clear title. Since they took the truck on XXXX XXXX weekend, I had to wait until that Tuesday to find out what happened to my truck. The tow company told me that the truck was repossessed by Credit Acceptance. I called Credit Acceptance and they told me to send in my title and bill of sale, and they should release the truck in 24-48 hours. I called back in after 48 hours, and was told that they were still investigating. Finally on the XXXX of XXXX, they said I could have my truck back. I told them I had no way of getting it since it was towed out of state. After numerous calls, they agreed to tow my truck back on XX/XX/XXXX. My truck came back with a rip in the front seat. All my families ' belonging thrown together in a big bag. I called Credit Acceptance to see how they were going to remedy this saturation. They told me I had to have a before picture of the seat, which I do not have. I think most people do not keep before and after pictures of their car seats. They are not telling me what they are going to do about me missing work or the car rental I had to do to take my mother to the doctor. I can get the car rental agreement, but the picture of seat or my work information should not be my burden for their mistake.

The blue book value of the vehicle was {$16000.00}. At the time, her nor I had alot of debt. My credit score was over XXXX and hers was as well due to her being a college student. I was told by the dealership that the vehicle would be {$22000.00}. However, the principal balance on the online account is showing as {$28000.00}. This would mean I was charged an additional {$12000.00} over what the value of the car was. Also, I was looking through my paperwork and noticed that I was never given a Bill of Sale for the vehicle. I reached out to the dealership and have not received a response after several attempts. I was fired from my employer XX/XX/XXXX and I fell behind on payments.

Org. loan of XXXX $ XXXX $ or more @ XXXX $ mo.for XXXX. They repossessed the vehicle without any prior knowledge or attempts to reach me in XXXX of XXXXPandemic, in spite of multiple calls letting them know that we were experiencing financial issues. Previous payments had been made unlike they have falsely reported Since XXXX they have either not reported or incorrectly reported payments made on the loan to the XXXX credit bureaus. At one point there had been two account # s. connected to my account on their portal. After paying on this loan for XXXX & XXXX mos. they are reporting that $ XXXX is still owed & $ XXXX Is past due. Every mo they charge a late fee no matter when its paid, and even after payments of XXXX $ over XXXX $ that is required. I have tried to contact the dealership where it was purchased but they have never returned my calls. In desperate need of clarification on the limitations of interest charges, payments and the right to repossess a vehicle after incorrect /invalid information has been reported. The vehicle was sold with a major airbag recall that has since cost me over XXXX $ out of pocket expenses that I was given XXXX $ in reimbursement. Currently there is another recall for the same issue that is just as dangerous and the issue is not being resolved in a timely manner either. Stuck making outlandish payments for a vehicle that is XXXX old!!!

Credit Acceptance is furnishing inaccurate information to the consumer reporting agency, The reporting of inaccurate information has caused severe damages to my character, my reputation and general mode of living and my ability to obtain credit for personal and home purposes-15 U.S. Code 1681a ( d ) ( 1 ) ( A ). Furthermore, Credit Acceptance has obscured the true cost of its loans to car buyers, leading to severe financial distress for borrowers and subjecting them to aggressive debt collection tactics on loans its own systems predicted that borrowers cant afford to repay. Reporting misleading high balance along with inflated interest, borrowers that default on loans, lead to severe consequences, including wage garnishment and an inability to borrow money in the future. A default on an auto loan can also lead to the borrower losing their means of transportation, which can cause job loss and a further spiral of damaged credit and financial distress. According to 15 U.S. Code 1681s2 - Responsibilities of furnishers of information to consumer reporting agencies. ( 1 ) Prohibition ( A ) Reporting information with actual knowledge of errors A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate. person- ( b ) The term person means any individual, partnership, corporation, trust, estate, cooperative, association, government or governmental subdivision or agency, or other entity.

I reached out to the company back in XXXX about removal of the incorrect information on my credit report. They refused to do so I requested the payment information from the account. I was told I had to verify my email by email early XXXX from the company, so I did the information listed was incorrect. They later in the year sent me a letter from a lawyer to contact him even after they were notified the information was incorrect from the initial notice. At the time they were being sued for targeting lowering class citizens and charging interest rates that were above the regulated state requirement. I was also in that category of targeted people. I was waiting the opportunity to go to court. I later received a call from a lawyer saying they could represent me in a lawsuit I knew nothing about I asked them what they were referring to because I was not aware of being sued. She informed me to call my local courts and I did they told me that a summons would be brought to me and it was filed by the company on XX/XX/XXXX. I waited to hear back from the company lawyer after leaving several voicemails and no response. I waited for the company to resolve the issue and then I received a letter from the court stating the case was dismissed XX/XX/XXXX. I tried to get the company to remove the wrong information from me and my co-signer report but they have still not done it. I then received a lean release document from them on XX/XX/XXXX. It is now XX/XX/XXXX and it is still on our reports. I would like them removed immediately and any inquiries associated with the company.

On XX/XX/XXXX at the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX dealership I signed a retail installment contract with credit acceptance for a XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have recently learned that the contract is faulty due to the additional charges with loan. In the beginning credit acceptance as a lending company is not accommodating to their customers. Before payments were due I asked for a different pay date due to my pay period but was denied. Over the course of the loan credit acceptance has reported incorrect dates and payment amounts to my credit report. In addition to massive hidden fees I have accumulated on my account the numbers are not correct for how much is owned on the car loan. The numbers are different on all three credit reports. Once it took me months to dispute charges and receive a resolution for hidden fees. Credit acceptance do not issue bill statements to customers its only by request, on the website the customer has limited access to their account. The customer can only view current and past due amounts. Credit acceptance as a lender is not professional by conducting business as such. On XX/XX/XXXX th vehicle was repossessed, I recently learned the vehicle was damaged under the care of the third party repossession company the vehicle is now deemed inoperable and being sold at auction. I have invested in over {$21000.00} in a vehicle that was worth {$13000.00} at the time. Furthermore the vehicle is now inoperable due to someone else negligence. I have contacted credit acceptance regarding the damages i discovered on the auction website to the vehicle on XX/XX/XXXX.

I check my credit very frequently, I noticed the credit reporting agencies and credit acceptance has been violating my consuming rights I check my report and they furnished credit acceptance. This car was repossessed they never told me how much I owe, when it was sold and what the balance was if there was any. I should not have a balance because there was a finance charge that I paid. As pursuant to 15 US code 1605 Determination of finance charge, they already got paid. In addition, I noticed that XXXX XXXX when I checked my report it was reporting that this account with credit acceptance Corp will stay on my record until XX/XX/2022. Then I screen shot a picture from my phone on XX/XX/2022 from the XXXX app. It stated that it shall be on Record until XX/XX/2022. XX/XX/2022 when I went to look if it was still there reporting, the space where they actually inform how long its going to be on record its blank. They are not reporting factual information to my report and they using abusive practice according to 15 usc 1692. The banking system is depending on them for accuracy. This account supposed to have fell off already. I am demanding compensation from XXXX for {$1000.00} for damages and demanding credit acceptance to compensate me for the whole entire loan for the vehicle that's already been paid off. I am looking for them to send me back the price of the whole loan or I will take this to court. According to 15 usc 1692i credit acceptance corp have no legal standing against me the COSNUMER in the courts. I am demanding that this account is REMOVED IMMEDIATELY.

I recieved car loan for a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX from Credit acceptance corp. I paid my bill on time every month for 7 months. The transmission in the car failed in XX/XX/XXXX. I contacted Credit acceptance to see what my options were as i could not afford the repairs and i did not want my credit score to be affected. They stated it was nothing they could do as far as paying for repairs. I asked about the process for turning the car back in to them. Credit acceptance rep stated that they would come pick the car up, it would then be sold for what they could get for it, Whatever they sold it for would be subtracted from the balance i owe which at the time was about ( balance in XX/XX/XXXX {$4500.00} ) they would send me a letter with new balance once car is sold. I never recieved a letter with the new balance. They are still reporting as if account is open til this day. They are reporting an inaccurate balance of XXXX which is more than the initial loan amount. They are reporting late payments and voluntary surrenders every month. Every time i dispute they get worst. I asked for proof of what they are reporting, and no one can furnish the proof. I asked all three bureaus XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX to verify and send me proof. But yet and still no one can show any evidence of this but its still reporting negatively on my consumer report and public records. Ive requested this to be removed for inaccuracies numerous times and yet its still reporting. This is Fraud and it is causing great stress and hardship in my life, Due to their bad business practices.

I purchased a new car, and I gave this one back to the finance company. My new car dealer drove the XXXX to XXXX for me, and he spoke with the owner regarding the vehicle. The owner made him park it in a back lot, so it would be out of his way. I followed behind, and picked the dealer up. I have a voice recording of my call to Credit Acceptance, explaining to them that I voluntarily surrendered the vehicle and returned it to the place of purchase. XXXX informed me they normally pick up the vehicle within 10 days. They will sell the XXXX at auction and bill me for the remaining balance. I requested they not call me continuously until the vehicle is auctioned. I immediately mailed my key to XXXX, who has possession of the vehicle, along with a copy of this form and the notes above the line. I drive by and check on the vehicle periodically to see if the vehicle has been picked up yet, and to ensure no vandalism has occurred. The financing company has not yet picked up the vehicle. They continue to call me multiple times a day, seven ( 7 ) days a week. Sometimes they leave voice mails, sometimes not. I only get a bit of the voice mail, which is an automated message to call them. At this point, my voice mail box is full. I refuse to clean it up and make room for more until they cease harassment and follow through with their established procedures. They call from so many different numbers ; it is nearly impossible to block them. I 've tried to compose a call history, but I can not guarantee I got them all. It makes my eyes cross and gives me a headache!

Dear Sirs, I am in receipt of your letter dated XX/XX/XXXX to the CFPB, and subsequently allowed thirty ( 30 ) days to expire with hopes Credit Acceptance Corporation ( CAC ) would correct the inaccurate information it knowingly reported to all three credit bureaus. Thirty days has since past, and I would like to address the falsehoods reported in your letter. In your letter you state CAC has been actively pursuing collection of the above-referenced account. However, referencing a CAC letter I received in XXXX, and furthermore attached page 8 of my XXXX report, page 2 of my XXXX report and lastly, page 3 of my XXXX report contradicts your statement. The attached credit reports display this account to-date has been charged-off for nearly 4 or more years now, and no collection activity has not been reported up until recently. Your company maliciously, unethically, and illegally reported credit activity for no other reason to my belief, but to cause damage to my credit profile. As a Creditor, you are fully aware your company has a duty to conform with all Federal and State regulations in regards to credit reporting. As well as reporting accurate, up-to-date, and truthful information. With this letter, and under the guidelines of Fair Credit Reporting Act, I am requesting CAC remove this account from my credit report with all three credit reporting bureaus immediately, no longer than 30-days of the date of this letter. Kindly confirm safe receipt. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. As always, thank you.

My complaint is that I purchased a truck back in XXXX 2009 from a dealership I put down on a down payment to get the truck, during my time with the truck from the start I was having mechanical problems, After maybe 3 mo I had credit card fraud which caused me to not be able to make the payment for that mo. So they then remotely XXXX the start engine on the truck so I could not drive it. So within a couple of weeks they repossessed it, an offered me in a letter to buy it back at auction which I could not buy it back because I did not have the money to make the payment let alone to be able to purchase it back for the remaining balance after auction, so in further complaint they sent a garnishment summons to my job stating that I owe them {$3100.00} less the amount they sold the truck at auction. Ok now the question I would like answered is what physical money did they loan me ( put money in my hands check or cash ) that was paid towards the purchase of the truck, an did they not get there property back when they repossessed the truck an sold it at auction. So what warrants me to owe them physical money an for them to hide behind the courts to have them issue a judgment against me for physical money they never give me any way an to take money from me, here is something to think about : when you need to rent a car you have to put down a deposit. when you retain the car you then pay for the usage of the car, you return the car you get your deposit back. physical money an property is being exchanged I feel it is the same concept as leasing a car.

Gm. I wanted to have Credit Acceptance investigated and the credit bureaus at fault for keep updating my dispute as VERFIED! I dont recieve nothing as proof showing how these amounts Are! You can't just verify on debt cause the creditors told u its valid..First I see they still reporting that I Involuntarily had the car repossessed when in fact mid XXXX of XXXX I called them and let them know I couldn't pay for the car at that time after being persuade to just call in if future payments couldnt be made but I let them know it wasn't looking good so thats why when the impoundment showed up one morning I gave him my keys ( Is that involuntary? ) Also, SINCE THEN THE CAR BEEN SOLD!. But they are saying I still owe the same amount after making payments over time and still same high balance in which over these few months I have disputed with the company and the 3 major credit bureaus, I just start noticing that every month on this CLOSED account that my balance gets higher and higher, also is being included as a OPEN debt in Balance of all my good standing accounts. I seen on XXXX after trying to research this company that they have similar law suits out against them for being deceitful and overcharging. I hope they not trying this tactic on me and hope this is a mistake. I never denied have a account with them but proof of how I owe this much and documents of how much car sold for and want to know, How they have the Right to keep Reporting to bureaus a different amount ever month? I hope we can find some resolvemment in this concerning matter.

I am writing to express my deep frustration and dissatisfaction with the recent experiences I have encountered with Credit Acceptance, specifically in relation to the repossession and subsequent release of my vehicle. On XX/XX/XXXX, I visited the Credit Acceptance website to make a payment to retrieve my repossessed vehicle. I went through the payment process on their website, received a confirmation, only to discover later that the payment was processed through a third-party service without my knowledge. This lack of transparency is unacceptable, as I intended to make a direct payment through Credit Acceptance. Despite the payment being confirmed on XX/XX/XXXX, I have been informed that I must wait until XX/XX/XXXX, well beyond the initially communicated XXXX business days, to have my vehicle released. This contradictory information and prolonged delay are causing unnecessary hardship and inconvenience. Furthermore, my account reflects a discrepancy in payments, as I have paid a total of {$9000.00} since XX/XX/XXXX, yet Credit Acceptance insists I am behind by {$3700.00}. This inconsistency raises serious concerns about the accuracy and transparency of their accounting practices. I urge the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to investigate Credit Acceptance 's practices, specifically addressing the lack of transparency regarding third-party payments, contradictory information provided to customers, and discrepancies in account balances. I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and hope for a swift resolution.

Credit Acceptance ( CAC ) has levied hidden charges that added 37 percent to 68 percent to loans for customers including me, with low credit scores. After closing my account, and aggressive calling to pay a debt owed on a vehicle that is reported stolen and no longer in my possession, Credit Acceptance till this day preys on me and many pandemic related consumers. Credit Acceptance requires many borrowers to buy vehicle service contracts that added, on average, {$2500.00} to their loans. Credit Acceptance 's policy is to call consumers on debts and default loans almost eight times a day to try to collect. They have called me repeatedly in the wee hours of the morning. In addition to high costs and aggressive collection practices, Credit Acceptance has also been big in repossessions, repossessing cars in 45 percent of the loans. When Credit Acceptance repossesses a car, the borrower must continue to pay the amount owed. That can include payments on a vehicle service agreement the borrower can no longer benefit from, illegal lending and collection practices that are predatory and illegal in several states, and harmful credit damages to many consumers across the nation. Credit Acceptance has also raised debts for non payment thru illegal practices and policy ( including myself ) while targeting consumers with high interest rates and devastating " lawsuits '' or anything in relation to debts, loans and destroying the consumers credit thru illegal collection practices. XXXX an CFPB need to bring Credit Acceptance to light.

Back in XXXX of XXXX I got a car loan for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, from Credit Acceptance Corp. The loan was for approximately {$11000.00}. In XXXX of XXXX I was unable to pay for the loan anymore an contacted the company explaining my situation to them. I never received a reply back from them. Then several months later I contacted them a second time telling them to please come and take the car back I still could not afford the loan any longer and haven't been driving the vehicle it remained parked at my residence. Still I never heard back from them, they continued to ignore my requests. I've contacted them on 2 more occasions the most recent being in the beginning of XXXX, nearly 3 years from the point I first contacted them telling them to come and take the car back please. And I have still heard nothing from them and the vehicle still remains parked and not being driven. Just today, XX/XX/XXXX, I was notified by my credit monitoring company that Credit Acceptance Corp has reported new information to the credit bureaus about my loan. It turns out that have now reported this loan as being " re-opened '' with them ( it has been marked as closed for the last 3 years ) and they have nearly doubled the amount they claim I owe them. It went from {$11000.00} as a balance to now {$19000.00}. I have been pleading with this company to come and take the vehicle back now for nearly 3 years and all they do is ignore me. I'm positive they are ignoring me because they're just waiting for the vehicles value to continually depreciate over time.

I'm contacting the cfpb in regard to a car loan. I purchased a XXXX scion with 41,000 miles through XXXX XXXX. I was making payments in the amount of XXXX however in XXXX, I couldn't afford the car payments due to gunshot injuries. They told me the car was 18,000, I later found out the car was more than that. They also charged me 18.99 percent, their finance charge XXXX total cost of the car XXXX which is unbelievable. The car had no equity, the loan was up side down to start and the apr rate is beyond Connecticut 's law. This is a clear case of predatory lending which violate the laws here in Connecticut. The lending practice in my case imposes unfair and abusive loan terms on borrowers, including high-interest rates, high fees, and terms that strip me the borrower of equity. I did not understand the terms of this agreement when i bought this car. I had no knowledge of the APR. The salesman was trying to make a sale by any means necessary. Paying XXXX for a XXXX car is crazy. The lender violated local or federal laws, including the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) by approving such loans with these terms. Credit Acceptance is currently being sued by New York Attorney general and the CFPB for this very thing. In the state of Connecticut an auto loan APR can not exceed 12 % pursuant to Section 36a-573 of the Banking Law of Connecticut, no person is authorized to charge, contract or receive any interest or consideration greater than 12 percent per annum upon the loan, use or forbearance of money, or credit of the amount or value.

I got a loan from Credit Acceptance in 2018. I made payments as stated in our agreement but when the pandemic happened, I was out of work and notified the company in which they told me they had no help for their customers. So I made the payments as best as I could. Most of the time it was paid on time and if not it was paid within 3 days from due date. I was notified that the amount was due on the XXXX not after and we dont have grace periods. So the first time I was late, the account would continue to reflect late payments each month until I paid that one late payment. I wasnt aware that it works that way. Even more, its hurting my credit trying to get a new car because of those unethical practices this finance company practice. It is a reason they are one of the worse companies. I didnt realize how bad those terms where until the pandemic. Also they lied to me about helping during the pandemic only to turn around and send an email about how they help their customers during the pandemic. Also this company practices harassing phones calls for one missing payments and didnt stop until I blocked them and paid. My credit report shows late payment every month because one late payment rolled over each month until it was paid. Had they given me the option to push that payment to the end of terms, I would have great credit. Its disgusting how this company hurt the very people who put money in their pockets and food on their tables. Shame on Credit Acceptance, they were never really trying to help me, just cause me more pain.

On XX/XX/XXXX purchased a XXXX XXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, XXXX for {$14000.00}. Total loan amount financed {$25000.00}. I also paid {$1400.00} for a 2 year or XXXX miles extended warranty. Car was financed through Credit Acceptance Corporation for XXXX interest for 60 months. Car developed air conditioning problems within 2 weeks. Took to dealer who made me pay {$600.00} to have fixed. Two months later car stopped on a major highway and had it towed back to dealer to fix the problem under the extended warranty. Car stayed at dealer not fixed. We called extended warranty company who said that dealer would not provide information they requested. Car has been at the dealer not repaired since XX/XX/XXXX. Dealer advised me last week that it will cost {$11000.00} to put in a new motor and make repairs. I wrote to Credit Acceptance and told them about the car not running for months and that I would not pay for a car I could not drive and that the dealer refused to fix. I stopped making payments. I cancelled the insurance on the car. I told Credit Acceptance that I was surrendering the car and asked them to cancel the loan because I did not get what I bargained for. Credit Acceptance told me I had to pay for the car. I again notified Credit Acceptance on XX/XX/XXXX that I was surrendering the car back to them. I will not be forced to pay for a junk car, almost 23 percent interest for 60 months and the car has been broken down and undriveable since XX/XX/XXXX. The dealer refuses to fix under my extended warranty.

Dear Sir, as an XXXX who legally leaves in XXXX Ohio since XXXX, I feel very frustrated today by the fact that a bank and a car dealer company, Credit Acceptance and XXXX have made me sign an agreement to finance my car. Initially, the car was around 12,000 . Because my credit was bad by then ( I was not familiar at all with the credit score in XXXX, having been here for only 2 years ), I made a deposit of XXXX XXXX Credit Acceptance financed the vehicle for me, a XXXX. I have been regularly paying XXXX $ every month for the past 2 years. When I checked with Credit acceptance how much I still owe after paying XXXX, I found that I still need to pay XXXX XXXX I realized that they made me sign an agreement to pay a total of almost 25,000 for a XXXX car initially sold for XXXX. I believe that they have abused me, and they did not treat me fairly. Banks although making profit must have a minimum of moral to avoid behaving like crooks who abuse innocent victims who are not familiar with the financial system. Please talk to Credit Acceptance, ask them how they made me sign these document and what are the criteria that made them put so high the price of an old car in spite of my effort to down deposit XXXX. My name is XXXX. my phone number is XXXX, and my e-mail adress is : XXXX. Please help me, I and my wife are making a very low salary, and are victim of a joint crooking service of XXXX XXXX in XXXX Ohio and Credit Acceptance. Thank you for contacting me as soon as possible, for more details. Thanks Good bless. Kalifa

I purchased a XXXX XXXX XXXX from credit acceptance. Upon me purchasing the vehicle i was told the final asking price was XXXX. I put XXXX down on this car. A couple of months went past with me making on time payments and i believed my balance would be around 8 thousand give or take, I have saved up enough money to inquire about a pay off. This company told me I must pay at the time XXXX to pay the car off. the amount financed was almost double the final asking price!! the dealership failed to show me that and being young i did not pay much attention to it. why am i paying for interest that was not accrued! I'm paying the loan off early so why must i pay for interest that's years away! The blue book value of this car is XXXX, so not only did i purchase this car more than double of its worth, I'm also liable to pay for interest that is years ahead to pay the car off. There is no prepayment penalty. Because I refuse to pay XXXX for a car that is worth XXXX and have XXXX miles on it i decided to buy another car. Now since the car has been sitting in my driveway my credit has taken a huge hit. especially due to personal reasonings and this pandemic iam not able to pay both car loans. I feel like credit acceptance know that iam young and took advantage of my age, There is no way i should have to pay off forecasted interest to pay the car off now when the life of the loan is still substantial. Also i really needed a car back then and did not know i was paying double the bluebook value, and double the interest.

I, XXXX XXXX, the consumer and natural person, were denied credit with a XXXX score and no counter offer by Credit Acceptance Corporation when I applied for a new XXXX XXXX for approximately {$50000.00}. Adverse action against a consumer is AGAINST THE LAW according to the Equal Credit Opportunity Act which is codified in 15 U.S.C 1691c and is pursuant to civil liability under 15 U.S.C 1692k. You are subject to criminal liability for violating 15 U.S.C 1691 as I have proof that I was discriminated against by Credit Acceptance Corporation due to the response I received. I have attached it to this letter. Credit Acceptance Corporation is in violation of 15 U.S. Code 1642, U.S.C 1681m and 12 cfr 1002 because I, the consumer, made an application in good faith, but credit was not issued. Furthermore, because my social security number ( credit card ) was used and I received NO benefit. This is proof of fraudulent activity ( unauthorized use of credit card ) on behalf of Credit Acceptance Corporation. Since you are the borrower and borrowed my application, I'm in demand for the borrower to retract/return my application ( security ). If Credit Acceptance Corporation fails to make any reasonable procedures to resolve this matter and compensate me for the use of my credit card I will indeed make Credit Acceptance Corporation criminally and civilly liable for all actual damages pursuant to 15 USC 1681n and 15 USC 1681o. I will also follow up with an invoice for said violations ( { {$10000.00} } per violation ).

This loan was started on XX/XX/XXXX for XXXX and the monthly note is XXXX. In XXXX I was out of work due to a health problem. I called the company to let them know, so I was granted a few months that I can make payments for XXXX a month, when that time was up the company called me and said that my car is on the list to get repos unless I can make a full payment of XXXX. I let them know I am out of work and I had applied for XXXX and I am waiting to hear back. I also told them to give me until Friday I have a friend who can let me borrow it that was the agreement that was on a Wednesday apparently it was fine. Then this happened Thursday, XX/XX/XXXX my car was reposed Credit Acceptance did not even wait until Friday to come to see was the note going to get paid. I call them on the phone to ask why they repose the car we had agreed for Friday. Then I was told that they can't do anything about it, I was told the only way I can get my car back is to agree to a payment of XXXX a month if I don't they want to tell me where the car is and I can't get it back it will go up for auction. I had to agree to their tern and send them XXXX first before I can know where the car is and get it back. Now I have been getting help for 12 months paying XXXX on the car now I was approved for XXXX i ask the company can we try to settle this loan for what I had already paid or drop the note. I was told they can't and that maybe I should surrender the car. The remaining balance is XXXX which includes a past due balance of XXXX.

Opened a used car loan. Moved to XXXX az in XXXX. Made every payment ontime until XX/XX/XXXX. Car broke. And I could not fix. Am a single mother with XXXX children at the time. Had to voluntarily return car. I knew this would affect my credit report. However. For 6 years it showed XXXX balance paid in full and account was showing closed showing as a charge off. I was very confused by this. Then in XX/XX/XXXX the company began reporting derogatory showing a sudden balance account open account in repossession and a negative payment history. Disputed several times with credit agencies Never was i communicated with by this company. Never was an effort made to settle debt. Never was any information given about the car being sold and the remainder i would owe. Just suddenly derogatry reporting. And every month it would changes different aspects of the item. All this drastically affected my score. Where as had they reported honestly and appropriately from the begining my score would have been affected in a less devastating manner. Then the continuous negative and inaccurate changes every month continued to harm my score. How can a report go from closed to open to chargeoff to in repossession and around again changing. Affecting my score. Now says settled. All this not ever once contacting me. How was this settled and why was this changed over and over again? Is this fraudulent can a company be allowed to 1 not communicate an attempt to collect a debt 2 continuous changing of balance and status and history?

I currently have an open account with XXXX XXXX. This account has been active since XXXX. I was overcharge for the car I had which was a XXXX XXXX XXXX. After reviewing my contract my interest rate was extremely high. There were junk fees added to my account. The car value ended up being XXXX. I tried multiple times to return the vehicle but was left stuck with it. My car was involved in an accident by another driver. My insurance company paid the car off and I had gap insurance. For whatever reason XXXX XXXX said they never received any documentation proving that. I sent the documents XXXX and as of today no one can seem to find it ( Scammers ). Ive noticed that this has happened to multiple XXXX. My account was placed in collections and turned over to their attorney. I settled in full on XX/XX/XXXX and have yet to receive the proper documents from CREDIT ACCEPTANCE. The attorney sent me a receipt, and also documentation of the closed account. Ive called XXXX XXXX XXXX trying to get what I need to close the account on their end. Its always a different answer each time I call. My credit shows a lower balance, but it doesnt reflect settled in full. Its showing derogatory marks although Ive disputed everything with XXXX, XXXX, & XXXX based off the inaccurate information. This company need to be investigated for ripping people off, adding junk fees, hidden fast, and high interest rates to consumers with low credit scores. Each rep I speak with are extremely rude and dont want to be on the phone

So I bought this car in XXXX. I traded in my cruze for it. I didn't know what the interest rates were this was my first time buying a car with a lease. My interest is 22.99 % if my calculations are right I pay {$340.00} a month and only {$100.00} goes towards the actual cars price the rest goes to interest. Right now XXXX months later this car doesn't work. XXXX of last year I tried to see if they could refinance my payments. They said they don't do that. The woman was very rude didn't care to help. All she kept saying was find another finance company that will take your loan. By the tone I new XXXX would. And I've called dozens XXXX will. Because of the high miles. I bought this car at XXXX XXXX will take this loan apparently when it's more then XXXX miles or more. I have put thousands into this car. XXXX days after I bought the car I got pulled over because I had no headlights. I had to replace the covers also because they were so fogged up I couldn't see driving at night. I had to fix the control arm I've had to fix the CV axle. Now my ignition doesn't work. XXXX can figure out why. My loan in XXXX months has only gone from XXXX to XXXX. I make XXXX payments a week. I just can't keep up with the high interest rate. I looked at how much a XXXX XXXX XXXX is going for its only going for less then {$8000.00}. Now I'm at a point where I can't keep paying for a car I can't even use. And it doesn't seem I will be able to get out of this loan anytime soon to either fix the car or get a new one.

During the car financing process with Credit Acceptance, my rights were violated in several ways. Initially, the terms of the agreement included a car cost of {$8000.00} and a down payment of {$3000.00}. However, Credit Acceptance charged an exorbitant interest rate of 22.9 %, significantly inflating the loan amount and burdening me with excessive costs. The impact of the pandemic on my payments was severe, but I managed to make two substantial payments to significantly reduce the loan amount. However, to my surprise, after six months, the outstanding amount mysteriously increased to almost its original value of {$7000.00}. This sudden increase raises concerns about hidden costs and unfair practices by Credit Acceptance. Despite making payment arrangements and fulfilling my obligations, the car was repeatedly repossessed by Credit Acceptance. These repossessions occurred even when payments were made, leaving me in a constant state of uncertainty. These illegal repossessions led to additional fees and worsened my financial situation, pushing me further into debt. Moreover, Credit Acceptance consistently overcharged interest, exacerbating my financial struggles and making it increasingly difficult to pay off the loan. These actions have had a detrimental effect on my credit standing, making it challenging to secure future loans or financial opportunities. The financial impact of Credit Acceptance 's violations has significantly disrupted my life and caused immense stress and hardship.

In XXXX of XXXX, I co borrowed for a XXXX financed by Credit Acceptance Corp. Payments remained in good standing until XXXX of XXXX when the other borrower left home with the vehicle and never came back. Since then, every payment has been at least 30 days late. I do not have access to this vehicle. I do not insure it. I am not on the registration. I have tried countless times and multiple phone calls to resolve this. I have begged for them to repossess the vehicle since it is currently over 90 days past due, with no attempt to make payment since XX/XX/XXXX. Ive asked to surrender it. Ive asked to remove my name in anyway. I can afford this vehicle but they wont even help me get possession back of it. It has ruined my credit. I dont understand why they wont just take the vehicle or even just give it to me and Ill deal with it. The person who has it doesnt have a job anymore and hasnt since the first late payment. He has missed more payments even on the payment arrangement than made. Its hurting me more to let him continue to mess up every month then it would to just take it from him and ding me for the next 7 years. I am a good hard working person trying to do the right thing but they are catering to a XXXX XXXX grown man with no job. He doesnt even insure the vehicle, his mom and dad do. Please take my name off of this. If I had possession I would either sell, refinance, surrender, or pay it. But I shouldnt have to suffer because this car company doesnt want to do anything about it.

On XX/XX/2018, XXXX XXXX in XXXX, AZ, refused to get me a loan at the true market value of my XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX with XXXX miles. XXXX year old used car. Dealer produced by them, a manufactured XXXX XXXX XXXX price of {$6900.00} fully loaded. My car is not fully loaded. The correct price of this car on XX/XX/2018 was {$4300.00} for fully loaded. My car would have been less money. Dealer over charged me for the car- {$7900.00}. Auto dealer fraud. Credit Acceptance told dealer that the {$7900.00} is the price of the car or no loan. High pressure sales tactics. Lender took advantage of me. Lender refuses to tell me what my credit score was on XX/XX/2018, what is the minimum credit score? -lender refuses to answer me. Lender gave me a predatory car loan for 22.99 % in Arizona, where I live. The Arizona usuary rate is 10 %. There is no compounding interest in Arizona for car loans. Predatory lending is a practice that is unfair or abusive to the borrower. The fraudulent loan charges me almost 50 % interest. The total sale price on loan- charges me my {$1600.00} down payment. False advertising by the dealer on XX/XX/2018. Equity stripping by lender pursuant to FTC. Overcharging me for the loan. I was deceived by Credit Acceptance from the beginning. Unfair business practices and consumer fraud-deception. Credit Acceptance still has blatant disregard for the rights of innocent purchasers-me. Credit Acceptance does have the dealer invoice with the price of the car and my credit score.

In my compliant against credit acceptance on XX/XX/XXXX I explained that my account was paid with my insurance but Credit Acceptance was reporting my account with a balance and as a collection. Credit Acceptance responded that they were paid by my insurance company in XX/XX/XXXX and that they reported accurately to XXXX, XXXX and XXXX. Attached is the letter they wrote to me admitting that my account was paid in full by my insurance company in XX/XX/XXXX and that they requested that the credit reporting agencies list the account as closed paid in full. As of todays date the Credit Acceptance is reporting my account listed with XXXX and XXXXn under a collection status and with XXXX as paid closed account/settled for less than full amount old. The proof of the above listed status is attached. I have also listed proof that Credit acceptance as of XX/XX/XXXX was listing my account to XXXX with a balance owed of {$5900.00}. Credit acceptance has illegally reported my account status to the credit bureaus for over a year. Credit Acceptance lied when they reported to CFPB under claim # XXXX that they listed my account as paid in full with a XXXX balance. Credit Acceptance false reporting is against the law and has prevented me from obtaining loans and credit accounts. Credit Acceptance should immediately notify the reporting agencies to correct my account status to closed paid in full and leave out any and all derogatory remarks such as account settled for less than the full amount.

On XX/XX/2016, I purchased a vehicle from XXXX XXXX in XXXX, Maryland. At the time, I went to purchase the vehicle I was ordered to sign a stack of papers, included in the papers was a warranty for the vehicle. Although, I found it strange that I was asked to sign documents for a warranty considering the car was brand new. I asked for copies of the documents I signed and was told that I would receive them the following day, when I picked up the vehicle. The following day, I received no paperwork. A few days after that I received a certified letter in the mail from the warranty company stating they were refunding the money for the warranty because the warranty was unnecessary. At that point, I begin asking for paperwork regarding my loan. It was only at a later time did I receive the loan paperwork in which stated the car I purchased was a used car. However, the vehicle was not a used car, it was a brand new car. I was the only Owner and it was fresh off of the lot. The monies refunded from the warranty company was put on the back of the loan. Although, it was incorporated in the sales price of the vehicle. The paperwork presented to me was for a new vehicle. When I finally received a copy of the paperwork, the paperwork eluded to the car being a used car. The car was not used. The loan is fraudulent. In addition, to that the bank has been utilizing ill business practices. I have tried to contact my lawyers but they have refused to take my case based upon certain factors.

Hello, I have a car loan with credit acceptance, and I am not thrilled with how business is done there. I have contacted the Attorney General in my state and the answer provided from the finance company was. ( We will not call her ). The AG advised me to seek an attorney. I called the finance company because I have been behind on my bill. It is very high and at the time I was making more money than I am today, and I told them I was homeless, but there was nothing they could do to help me. This company places your account in the collection a day after your payment is due. The day after it is due, they are calling you and harassing you on the phone. My credit report is hurting due to this. I was told it was in the contract. They will call you all day on Sunday. I complained about that. I called to set up payments ; however, it is so high I have to try, and do it because I need to fix my credit. The finance company says they do this to help us. I am not sure how this is helping me when I am always stressed out. Trying to find a place to live. I called the other day to set up a payment plan and I have to pay XXXX every two weeks. I just feel the practices are not good here at credit acceptance. I want to refinance for a lower payment, but I can't get refinanced because this loan hurts my credit. Please if you can look into the practices of this company, I would appreciate it until then I will continue to try and pay. Fair is fair, but I do not believe they are being fair.

I recently submitted a complaint to CFPB regarding Credit Acceptance. In their response, they submitted false information and provided a document that I DID NOT SIGN. In the letter that they submitted ; they state that they have received multple phone calls from someone who states that they are me. I have never called Credit Acceptance and I'm sure if someone would pull phone records it would show that it was not my voice. In the letter, they also state that I submitted a driver 's license on XX/XX/2022, when I " redeemed my vehicle after it was repossessed ''. This car has been sitting at a repair shop for most of 2022, and in fact, most of the time since my daughter acquired this vehicle. This car has never been repossessed and no one has a signature where I signed to redeem that vehicile. Why would anyone redeem a vehicle that has been broken down for years and never been paid on? Why would anyone pay to get a car from repossession when they haven't paid on the car for years? That makes no sense. This company does not know what they are doing and they are making fraudulent claims against innocent people. Again, I did not acquire any loan with Credit Acceptance. It is also ironic that they claim that I signed for redemption of a vehicle on the day that I filed a complaint with CFPB. This company has me mistaken with someone else. I have not been calling and speaking with anyone at Credit Acceptance and they can not produce any recordings of me speaking with anyone.

Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, CreditAcpt I am writing to bring attention to some violations of consumer law that I have become aware of. Specifically, I am referring to improper reporting of debt, reaging accounts, incorrect report dates, incorrect open dates, incorrect payment status, incorrect last active dates, and incorrect last payment dates. Each of these violations presents potential harm to consumers and their financial credibility, and they must be addressed swiftly. I mean this company is reporting 120 or 180 days late since XX/XX/2020?!?! I would like to direct your attention to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which states that consumer reporting agencies must exercise reasonable care when reporting information to credit bureaus, must maintain reasonable procedures for maximum possible accuracy, and must not report obsolete information. Furthermore, the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) seeks to promote the informed use of consumer credit by requiring disclosure of credit terms and limitations on certain credit agreements. This is relevant, as the improper reporting of debt and other inaccuracies could lead to a false understanding of the terms on which a consumer may receive credit. Given the potential consequence of these issues, I urge the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to take action and hold credit agencies accountable so that these violations can be appropriately addressed and consumers can be adequately protected from harm.

Due to financial hardships, I decided to turn in a car I could no longer afford. The car was returned to the lending company and an agreement made to pay monthly payments in the amount of {$50.00}. A few months into the arrangement, I was asked to increase my payments. I refused because I did not want to agree to a payment I could not afford. Therefore I continued making payments until XX/XX/2019. In XXXX of XXXX the company stop accepting my payments. My online account was disabled and I was told by a collection representative that payments were no longer being accepted and they were pursuing another means of collecting the payment. I tried for several weeks to speak with a supervisor. I was talked to in a very unprofessional manner from several representatives to include the supervisor. I asked for statements and records of my account and was never sent that information. In XXXX I received an email from my HR department notifying me of a garnishment for this account. Days later I received a letter from the company about the garnishment. I attempted to appeal the decision and make several settlement offers but each offer was denied and countered with an amount not much less than the balance this company claim I owed. I've since attempted to offer a settlement but again was countered with an amount not much less than one of the balances this company has reported I owed. The amount the company says I owe is always higher than the amount reported to the credit bureau.

On the day of XX/XX/2020, I went to an dealership to purchase a care for the use of work and school. The car that was sold to me was an XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXXXX/XX/XXXX. The dealership sold me the car for the price of XXXX with monthly payments of {$430.00} with and interest rate of 22 %. Not making the right decision of actually looking around. The down payment that I had put on the car was {$1800.00} with only putting down {$1400.00} and owing {$300.00} which i payed. I am now paying an overall amount of {$32000.00} for the car over the period of 72 months. The dealership really conned me out of this deal as when i went back to discuss the situation they couldn't do or say anything but it was to late after bringing the car back 2 1/2 days later. My interest rate is really extreme and i want to be able to fix this if possible. On the day of XX/XX/2020, i went to get my car registered and I couldn't because I needed the title so i contacted the dealership. I spoke with the woman that signed off on my documents and she sounded very qwerky as if in a it is what it is voice. I told her i needed the title to register my car and she said the wasn't possible because they were still " processing '' that and other items. This dealership isn't the best one to buy a car from and this will be my LAST time. This was my first car to have ever bought and my first car period and my experience has been horrible even finding an affordable insurance. Hopefully someone can help me.!?

I purchased this car from a dealership and was basically haggled into getting a car for more than what it was originally worth. I was given a ridiculous interest rate and then I found out that the interest is compounded. So for a car that is actually only worth XXXX I am going to end up paying 25,000 give or take. The original car loan was for around 11,000 plus the warranty. The dealership and the place that approved my loan some how came up with to horrific numbers that are now haunting me every two weeks just so that I can get caught up from being out of work and missing One and a half payments when I XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX I have been paying multi-payments per month for over a year and for some reason my balance never goes away. I am struggling to make ends meet because of this car that I was suckered into buying at a price that is not what I deserve to be paying. the early buy out is still at XXXX, which is more than what the car is worth and no one will refinance or trade in. I have already spend over that much since purchasing the vehicle in XX/XX/XXXX. My original payments were set to be XXXX per month and I am now paying XXXX every two weeks and the balance is not going away like I feel that it should. They are basically saying that I am still two months behind when I only missed one full payment over a year ago. I really need help with getting this taken care of and hopefully lowering my payments. Please help me as well as you possibly can.

Hello I leased a used car through XXXX XXXX XXXX sales XXXX Tn. I purchased this with a credit lender Credit Acceptance back in XXXX. This loan was supposed to only be a {$8000.00} loan which the total of the car was {$6900.00} with the Lender giving the funds would equal an extra {$2000.00}. The loan now totals a {$18000.00} loan which I feel I have WELL over paid for this car which is a XXXX XXXX XXXX the remaining balance is {$6000.00}. The day that I purchased the car the car lot initially told me I would only need {$2000.00} down but I did end up giving a little more so that I could have a lower monthly payment. Which is actually far from the truth because the money is going towards interest and not the actual amount I owe. I have been paying this car off for almost XXXX years and when I went to pay off the remaining balance that my interest rate was 22.3 % which was never agreed on! I dont know how a {$7000.00} car is worth {$18000.00}! The lending company refuses to allow me to pay off the remaining balance. I have tried reaching out to multiple managers to settle my debt with them. Each month they are adding extra fees when I have well OVER PAID this car off. The car lot has now since went bankrupt and I have no way of refinancing or anything with this company. I am just wanting to settle with the company I have paid what the car is worth plus some. If there is anyone able to help me settle this dispute or if there is any refinance options please.

I've been disputing fraud accounts on my credit report since XX/XX/2020. I keep sending multiple sets of letters to the bureaus and the creditors so the excuse of " we didn't get it '' doesn't happen. Furthermore, each letter is certified mail with tracking and each letter shows signed and delivered and yet the bureaus are still not taking any actions. The accounts are not showing in dispute nor are they removed from my report. The accounts always show up with different name variations and different account number variations and yet the bureaus seem to ignore the trend and let these fraud accounts affect my credit score. I have requested the investigation to be initiated and also verifiable proof to be submitted should the account claim to be mine. Not only have I not received any mail showing the verifiable proofs needed to justify the accounts to be on my report, I haven't even received any letters at all stating the investigations have begun. Per the FCRA and federal law, the process is supposed to be 30 days. 250 days later, I'm still here shelling out money for certified mail with no end in sight and no results to show. This is my last option before I take this up with my lawyers and sue for full compensations and damages incurred. Finally, it seems that when these complaints are submitted, the bureaus are using the excuse that they " can't confirm my identity '' to get away with taking no actions on my credit report. Please investigate this as well.

I just received a Garnishment Notice, based on a loan that I co-signed on in XX/XX/XXXX. I did not receive any notice about this garnishment, have a chance to dispute it, or be notified that it was going to enforced ( more than 16 months after the fact ). They report that there was a judgement on XX/XX/XXXX, but I was not aware of it, or I would have disputed my involvement. They have located the primary debtor, so why am I being garnished? They repossessed the car in question 3 months after it was bought, so why am I paying for something they have had since XX/XX/XXXX? Why did n't they give me the opportunity to challenge? Why does this debt even exist? Furthermore, this is causing an extreme hardship on my family. We are just finally recovering financially after I had to quit work to take care of my son, who was diagnosed with XXXX XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. After he passed in XX/XX/XXXX, it took a while for me to get back to work while I grieved my XXXX year old. I am finally climbing out of the financial debt we incurred, and am now subjected to this. I tried to talk with the company on XX/XX/XXXX, but they said to talk to the attorney. I tried to set up payment arrangements with the attorney, and maybe negotiate a lower amount, but they claim they can do nothing -- it 's up to the court. I know this is a flat out lie, as we just got done paying another garnishment on expenses incurred while my son was sick. This garnishment is predatory and spiteful.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I was on my way to physical therapy when I was hit by a lady who had no drivers license or insurance. The lady was at fault and received several tickets. My insurance company XXXX determined that my car was a total lose and issued credit acceptance a payment of XXXX, XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. On the day of my accident I got a payoff quote sent to me from credit acceptance ( The Payoff Amount owed on the Account is {$13000.00} as of XX/XX/XXXX ) and I notified them of the accident. I also purchased GAP insurance and a warranty when I purchased the car which totaled 4000, which should take care of the difference. Credit acceptance is now saying I dont have Gap or a warranty and is reporting to the credit bureaus that I am 60-90 days behind on payments and owe them 2000 ( the amount keeps rising so Im not for sure on amount ). This is the second time reporting credit acceptance the first time was for the FAKE warranty that I purchased and now to find out the Gap insurance I purchased was a scam also. Please can you help me this is ruining my credit and causing my family major problems. I sent a dispute to all three credit bureaus that showed all this and explained the date of the last payment was wrong which according to MY RIGHTS the credit bureaus should have deleted it because of incorrect information instead ignored my request and said it was reporting correctly. This would also be the second time all three credit bureaus violated MY RIGHTS.

My daughter and I bought a used XXXX XXXX and financed it through Credit Acceptance Corp. Shortly after my husband passed away and my daughter and I had to downsize on vehicles due to loss of husbands income. We voluntarily returned the car. At that point, we could not pay for the vehicle. We had on our credit report that the account received a payment of XXXX after they got car back. So that should have dropped the amount we owed them way down. It was considered closed on XX/XX/XXXX. But since then they have kept adding charges and fees to the account each month. I am talking like anywhere from XXXX to XXXX a month. The current balance says we owe them over XXXX but as of XX/XX/XXXX our balance was XXXX so how could we keep getting charges for the vehicle? I have been trying to dispute this on my credit report for two years. I keep getting the response of Info is accurate and then BAM more charges show up. I have checked with the XXXX and they have hundreds of complaints about this company. They actually have an F rating. One lady 's comment was basically the same as my complaint. My daughters name is even spelled incorrectly on the contract. I am trying to get my life back together and was informed I cant buy a house or rent a house because of this account. I really need some help. I have contacted the Attorney General of NC about this and they sent letter to XXXX XXXX but got no response within the 15 days given to them to respond. HELP ME PLEASE!!!

On XX/XX/2023 the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) and the New York State Office of the Attorney General sued a predatory auto lender, Credit Acceptance Corporation, for misrepresenting the cost of credit and tricking its customers into high-cost loans on used cars. The car-buying experience turns into a nightmare for many of Credit Acceptances borrowers, who face unaffordable monthly payments, vehicle repossessions, and debt collection lawsuits. The joint complaint alleges that, among other things, Credit Acceptance hides costs in loan agreements and sets consumers up to fail. The complaint also alleges that Credit Acceptance violated New York usury limits and other consumer and investor protection laws. The lawsuit seeks to force Credit Acceptance to stop its illegal practices, reimburse harmed consumers, pay back wrongfully earned gains, and pay a penalty. And feel like i was a victim I purchased the car on XXXX and after reading the CFPB report 75 % that was mentioned in the article i can relate to. So I'm making this complaint too have credit acceptance removed from all 3 credit reports. Under the Consumer Financial Protection Act, the CFPB has the authority to take action against institutions violating consumer financial protection laws, including engaging in unfair, deceptive, or abusive acts or practices. The CFPB is seeking injunctive relief, monetary relief for consumers, disgorgement of unjust gains, and a civil money penalty.

I paid off my car loan with CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORP Account XXXX the dealer offer me a settle offer & i agree to pay off the loan. The following month after the car was paid off sum reason my credit file was incorrect. Credit acceptance sent me a letter that's says the car is paid in full but on my credit report it says, Account paid in full for less than full balance which that appears on all 3 my credit reports. i can not get a car loan with this incorrect accounts that on my credit report also this so call miss payment also. i have all my letter from Credit Acceptance its not making any sense why this showing a charge-off or paid for a less amount Credit acceptance agree on this pay off not me so i sent them the pay-off payment so this shouldn't be a bad account on my showing on my all 3 of my credit file. I call all 3 credit companies about this issue so many times & they will not fix this account at because Credit acceptance will not update the remarks show as a good account & paid & full & the miss payment delete off. Its not making any sense why would a company agree on a {$1400.00} payment to payoff this loan. All PAYMENTS WERE MADE IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE NEGOTIATED SCHEDULE WILL NEVER MISS A PAYMENT ON THIS LOAN. 15 USC SECTION 1692 ( g ) REQUIRES VALIDATION OF DEBT REQUIRING A DUTY TO RESPOND AND FAILURE TO RESPOND IS EQUATED WITH FRAUD. This was a joint account my wife name also on this account XXXX XXXX this also damage her credit file.

I purchased a vehicle through XXXX dealership. The sale price was {$5600.00}. I had {$3000.00} to put down on it but was told by the dealer to put {$2500.00} for better chances of getting approved. The dealer then told me my credit was frozen and asked for verification of my SS #. I provided the proper documentation. They then told me that they could only get my financed at a 22 % interest rate. I thought that was because I had filed bankruptcy. I went to sign the papers, they had the wrong SS #. They then said they would fix it. After 3 hours, they said they fixed it and told me sign here, sign here, and rushed me out the door. When it came time to make my first payment I discovered they were still using the wrong ss # and added my down payment into my balance. I contacted the bank and they informed me that they still did not have the right SS # and that the reason why my interest rate was 22 % was because they take bad credit and since my credit was " frozen '' they approved me. The dealer never submitted the correct info. I then had to submit documentation to the bank. I am currently taking civil action against them. Then I received a letter from the dealer stating my balance is {$2600.00} and wanted me to trade my vehicle in. Then I checked XXXX and noticed that the bank charged my account off at a balance of {$4600.00}. Sale price was XXXX - {$2500.00} down payment, but I owe {$4600.00}? This is hurting my credit tremendously! Please help me!

Under the First Contract terms, we agreed to pay a total of {$20000.00} in 66 monthly installments of {$300.00} on or before the XXXX of each month, beginning XX/XX/XXXX. The same day, myself and Co-buyer negotiated and entered into the second enclosed Retail Installment Contract ( the Second Contract ) with the same Dealer to purchase a XXXX XXXX XXXX ( the Second Vehicle ). Under the Second Contract terms, we agreed to pay a total of {$17000.00} in 57 monthly installments of {$300.00} on or before the XXXX of each month, beginning XX/XX/XXXX. We also agreed to an Annual Percentage Rate of 22.99 % for the First and Second Contract using Credit Acceptance Corporation to secure the loan. During that time Credit Acceptance Corporation was not in compliance with state filings and other business requirements to conduct business in the state of NJ. Credit Acceptance Corporation Treasurer XXXX XXXX in fact filed a Certificate of Withdrawal with New Jersey Department of Treasury on XX/XX/XXXX hereby terminating the companys license to do business in the state of NJ as of that date. Therefore my loan was fraudulently obtained on XXXX XXXX due to Credit Acceptance Corporation being deceptive and unable to do business legally in state.

I purchased a XXXX XXXX XXXX from a used dealer and the price on the car window said XXXX, I paid XXXX to hold it and would come back with the rest of my XXXX down payment. The truck had XXXX miles. When I went back the price doubled and now the loan was for XXXX, but I needed a car very bad so I purchased. Right away the truck started giving me problems it kept cutting off I took it back and they were booked for maintenance. This happed in XXXX. Because the car kept cutting off while driving I started changing the battery and alternator nothing worked. I started to be late for work and eventually was fired when the truck left me stranded on the side of XXXX XXXX on my way to work. I called Credit Acceptance Corp explained what happened and was asked to do a voluntary repossession and what ever they sold the truck for I would end up not having to pay anything else on it. I got behind due to Loss wages from the truck cutting off. Now fast forward Credit acceptance has been garnishing my work checks I get government assistance so I'm exempt in Wisconsin from garnishment but they have been aggressive since XXXX and are currently garnishing me now we go back to court in XXXX. I also later found out there was a defect recall on the model XXXX I had and that's why it kept cutting off so I was sold a recalled lemon. I really need help with all the wages I have lost I'm currently facing eviction cause my checks are so short from their garnishment.

I purchased my XXXX XXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX on XXXX XXXX my down payment was {$1000.00} and give {$1000.00} for the trade of my XXXX XXXX XXXX. The first financing was cancelled after XXXX weeks. I had to return to the XXXX XXXX XXXX and was subject to another credit check. I was approved by XXXX XXXX, I then had to put another {$500.00} down and my car payment went from {$200.00} to {$310.00}. I have since been making my payments. I received a letter via mail on XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX XXXX stating they were canceling the contract and returning the account to the Dealership. In the letter it does not give a reason for this cancellation. It states it would be removed from my credit line and that my car payments would be returned to the Dealership for me to pick up. I contacted the Sales Man from the Dealership and he knew nothing about such information. On XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX pm I contacted XXXX XXXX for information. I was advised by XXXX XXXX that a check for {$1300.00} had not been cut as of yet. The checks are cut on tuesdays and that it would be mailed on my behalf to XXXX XXXX. She looked through the notes and it was not stated as to why this was closed. I have since not spoken to finance office in the Dealership. I was advised by another Dealership that XXXX will try to make me pay for mileage and not return my money. I feel this is not fair practice in regards to my contract, as I am not the one the breached or cancelled.

i bought used car and car financing center in XXXX said come back in 6 months to refinance if i made my payments on time. when i did, he kept putting me off and then offered me to buy a bigger car. when i did, it broke down ( I now believe that he stopped the car because he did not like the deal ). he gave me my other car back ( I thought while the other car was being fixed ) and would not give me back the bigger car. then the first car that i bought broke down. he took it from the shop i left it at and repaired it without my permission. i reported this to XXXX. there is a starter stopper and GPS in my car that i did not know about or consent to. but yet credit acceptance corporation sent me a copy when i asked for one that is a declaration acknowledging electronic signature that i never saw or signed. my name is forged! the finance company has no problem with this dealer selling cars that are about to break down and then use the warranty to fix the cars instead of fixing the cars first. the dealer did not give a copy of the warranty either. the dealer had me " buy here, pay here '' and paid my payment late when i asked about refinancing. i asked finance company why they take the payments from the dealer. they said that they did not know who wired the payment. the dealer also keeps a key of the car. i am afraid that the car will not make it to the end of my loan and warranty is up soon. i do not know what else they forged my name on! help!

On XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX illegal repossessed a XXXX XXXX XXXX. Without any permission, nor notification of where I may retrieve personal items from the car. Credit acceptance also did not notify me of a right to redeem vehicle. credit acceptance currently has multiple compliant filed against the company, As they lie and try to close the compliant so that they can repossessed the vehicle. After findings of multiple illegal repossession. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) is moving to thwart illegal repossessions in the heated auto market. A compliance bulletin issued today reveals conduct observed during CFPB examinations and enforcement actions, including the illegal seizure of cars, sloppy record keeping, unreliable balance statements, and ransom for personal property.The CFPB is concerned that these market conditions might create incentives for risky auto repossession practices, since repossessed automobiles can command higher prices when resold. The timing of auto repossessions often comes as a surprise to borrowers and can cause devastating injury by depriving borrowers of the use of their vehicles. In addition, many people experience emotional distress when a car is taken from them, lose personal property, miss work or lose their job, incur expenses for alternative transportation, pay repossession-related fees, experience negative credit reporting, and have to repair vehicles damaged during the repossession process.

On XX/XX/XXXX I traded in my XXXX XXXX XXXX I had financed through Credit Acceptance. The dealership I was working with handled the payoff of the car. I got notice on my credit reports on XX/XX/XXXX that the balance of the loan was reported as 98 % paid off and account still open when it should have been 100 % and account closed with a {$0.00} balance. Credit Acceptance left a balance of {$210.00} still reporting as open on my credit report. On XX/XX/XXXX I received the contract pay off letter from Credit acceptance that stated I made my final payment and my contract was PAID IN FULL and the lien was released. Today is XX/XX/XXXX and this account is still reporting as opened with a balance of {$210.00}. I have made 2 attempts to resolve this with Credit Acceptance but they were of no help they just told me to dispute it but did not inform me on how to do that. Another representative from Credit Acceptance told me that I need to wait until XXXX. ( Not sure why when the car was paid off in full XX/XX/XXXX ). This reporting incorrectly has negatively impacted my credit and has caused me to be denied financing on something else due to it appearing I have 2 auto loans open. I need this information removed and this reported correctly as soon as possible. I am in the process of trying to buy a home and this is really holding me back. I can not get Credit Acceptance to help me so I was forced to submit this complaint. Thank you for your time.

Company : Credit Acceptance Corporation - XXXX MI XXXX I received a notarized/registered letter, stating that we are in default on a contractual payment with them for a XXXX XXXX XXXX . We are not in default,, the payment is automatically withdrawn monthly, so I called Credit Acceptance Corporation to advise them of this. They did confirm that the letter was an error, and we were not late on any payments regarding this vehicle, and never have been. The reason we got the letter was because of the state and area we live in, said the supervisor. This is discrimination at its finest, I feel that it falls under harassment and I want something done about it. As well, I asked for an apology letter so I could have that in my file, was told " they do n't do that. '' Hmmm??? They can take the time to pay someone to type a discriminate letter and notary but can not simply type an apology letter, when a mistake has been made? Not acceptable! I feel they needed to check to see where the money was coming from before sending a letter of this magnitude out. Tells me that their accounting department is not reliable, read some other customer comments, which confirms the belief.

Action taken by me : I called Credit Acceptance Corporation to discuss this notarized/registered letter. I spoke with a supervisor and he informed me that the reason I received the letter was due to the state/area I live in. Very unprofessional and discrimitive.

Company response to previous CFPB complaint, raised additional issue. Although my prior CFPB complaint with the company was responded to swiftly, the comlaint was closed without addressing the issues. The company miscategorized the previous complaint as being focused on whether or not I liked the vehicle and was able to voluntarily enter into the agreement when buying it. This raises additional issues, and as CFPB closed the prior complaint, it appears I must enter a new complaint to address these XXXX issues. Although I very much like the car, now that the Company 's prior response has raised the issue of whether or not I voluntarily entered the sales agreement : Oklahoma law seems to limit " who may contract '' in title XXXX, of oklahoma state law codified. As the company has chosen to make this the issue, I am deeply concerned that as a consumer who has made all payments in a timely manner, that I will be unable to keep the product purchased ( a 2013 XXXX ) simply because of having been adjudicated as insane. Since the Americans with XXXX act includes persons regarded as having a XXXX as protected by its provisions, I feel as though the company may be handling my complaint in an unlawful manner. Would a consumer not regarded as being XXXX have their complaints addressed properly instead of having the complaint issue in focus being shifted to their ability to enter into a contract or perform other daily life activities.

In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting, everything has to be 100 % accurate on my credit report. The Credit bureaus stated my account was properly investigation but how is that possible if the open date is inaccurate, the date last active is inaccurate, and date last reported is not accurate. This ground for removal. They also violated the law because according to : 15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A States I have the right to privacy. 15 U.S.C. 1681 Section 604 A Section 2. It also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instructions. The credit bureaus never did a proper investigation according to the FCRA. Listed accounts : The term investigative consumer report means a consumer report or portion thereof in which information on a consumers character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living is obtained through personal interviews with neighbors, friends, or acquainted or who may have knowledge concerning any such items of information. They did not do this!! Also, they have violated my rights even more. In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting everything has to be 100 % accurate on my credit report. The credit bureaus stated my account was properly investigated but how is that? If the open date inaccurate, the date last activity is inaccurate, amount inaccurate, and date last reported inaccurate. This is a violation and grounds for immediate removal.

I am being discriminated against by Credit Acceptance. The discrimination is based on several factors. I supplied with Credit Acceptance full acknowledgement they received payment on a timely notice, then why not correct the error. Upon researching, I observed these biases are predominantly present within the lower socioeconomical buyers. This is applauding as to the terms within the contract. Its as if though I am helpless against big corporations such as credit acceptance refusing to treat buyers fairly and just. Its noticeable within some contracts within the less fortunate population payments are often reported late when on time. Due to it being a second chance finance company it takes full advantage on this premise. Initially the complaint was deemed unnecessary however to date, I have never received my title for this car. As per XXXX law I am Suppose to have this title. My vehicle has been parked for three months due to me not receiving the title for this car because its not able to be driven. I advised, I needed to obtain the title for insurance and registration purposes. To date, I have not received the title. The Company quickly adjusted the balance and after the complaint was closed changed the amount back. They are practicing discrimatory practices. There is no disputable fact, they received payment for those months on time. The company refuses to ensure they report accurately report such payments.

About XXXX XXXX, I was contacted by Credit Acceptance to collect a debt from me totaling {$9900.00}. The agent stated to me that he was an employee of the collections department of Credit Acceptance, as they do all of their debt collecting in-house. Then then stated that the company was willing to settle on the debt for {$3900.00}. I told him that if he could give me until the first of the year, I would definitely be willing to pay that amount. He responded that was doable as long as I paid {$100.00} before XX/XX/2019, to lock in the settlement. I asked him specifically, if I paid this, would the company would be willing to delete this discrepancy from my credit report and he responded yes. So, asked if I could have in writing these terms and he said that he would be sending them via postal services. No more than 1 week later, I received the letter, however, it didn't reflect the information that the account would be deleted from my credit as promised once payments were satisfied. I called back to Credit Acceptance and explained the situation and what I was expecting. This time, I spoke to his alleged supervisor for his department and she informed me that the gentleman didn't give me true Information, as deleting the account was not something that could be accomplished. So, at this point, I was told one thing by one employee and then something completely different by another employee of the same company and same department.

XX/XX/XXXX I went to XXXX XXXX to purchase a car for cash. I chose a XXXX XXXX XXXX. I agreed to make cash payments to the dealership within 4 months to pay cash price for vehicle. I gave XXXX XXXX a total of {$1000.00}. In XX/XX/XXXX I started receiving phone calls from Credit Acceptance. The representative informed me that Credit Acceptance Company financed the vehicle. I tried to explain the agreement that I had with XXXX XXXX at the dealership. I never received a Bill of sale, odometer disclosure, flood disclosure or any other documents the dealer is required by the state of North Carolina to provide. I explained to the representative that I did not sign loan documents. I requested that the company send me a copy of all loan documents. Credit Acceptance refused to send me any documents. The Credit Acceptance representative did tell me that the car was finance for {$18000.00} and the payoff is {$10000.00}. The interest rate is 22.5 % over the legal limit usury rate. I received copies of the documents in an email response to the XXXX XXXX XXXX from Credit Acceptance on XX/XX/XXXX, five months after I supposedly signed finance documents to purchase a vehicle that according to XXXX XXXX XXXX is only valued at {$3400.00}. I recently learned that XXXX XXXX has owned many deceptive car dealerships over the years. He changes the name of his dealerships to avoid abiding by the laws. I NEVER AGREED TO PURCHASE A CAR THROUGH FINANCING

My car was repod on XX/XX/XXXX ... i payed to retrieve my car on XX/XX/XXXX. Was unable to physically pick up my car until XX/XX/XXXX bc my car was shipped to auction with the intent to sell prematurely. After getting the run around and having property stolen out of my car which a police report was filed. I was still within my 15 days of redemption. The finance company credit acceptance corporation reported on XX/XX/XXXX that the account was closed and a reposession was placed on my credit report. After i spoke with them repeatedly during the XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX time frame and treated like i personally stoke money owed each rep they said the account was still open and now i have {$3000.00} additional added to my already high car loan and when Im only late around {$1400.00} and i paid {$560.00} to get my car back. This is legit a predatory lender and they lie to get the funds they want. Im already paying extremely too much for a car that was a lemon when they financed it and have spent well over {$2000.00} in the last 3 months to fix it. Regardless of late payments i dont need incorrect information reported on my credit report. I would like this resolved just as quickly as it was reported. Since yall were so quick to try and sell my car before my time was up. I already called and was to have someone in credit reporting look into it yet all i get was remarks. No the loan is still open and i would like it reported accordingly.

I purchased a used XXXX XXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, FL. XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, this vehicle was financed by Credit Acceptance Beginning XX/XX/XXXX. I have made payments as agreed and after the car was involved in an automobile accident on XX/XX/XXXX and was declared a total loss. They have repeatedly called me and sent letters to settle the account with no amounts they claim that I owe even listed and claims of a settlement savings of 60 % and I feel they have not credited all the prepaid finance charge that they should have and I FIRMLY believe I do not owe them anything. In my opinion, The contract is paid in FULL and I'm owed a REFUND. Even MORE disturbing is that the contract that I have signed for the original purchase and the contract issued to me from Credit Acceptance when I requested a settlement statement, what I received is a different contract with DIFFERENT numbers. This development I have discovered is highly suspect and in simple language to me, should be considered CONSUMER FRAUD. There is absolutely NO remedy I will accept OTHER than to be reimbursed in full for the overage payment, which by my calculations is {$1000.00} Furthermore, Credit acceptance has not updated any of the Credit Reporting Agencies ( CRA 's ) since XXXX XXXX, XXXX. There are no references to the payments that have been paid since XX/XX/XXXX which also includes the XXXX insurance payout of {$9300.00}.

I'm contacting you in regards to Account # XXXX with the company Credit Acceptance. I submitted a complaint on XX/XX/XXXX with the CFPB about this account, as a result Credit Acceptance agreed to close the account. According to the response on XX/XX/XXXX it was stated : Nevertheless, at this time, we have made a business decision to close your account. No further payments are owed. We will also submit a request to the three major credit bureaus to which we furnish information to update our reporting to reflect the account closure. Please allow up to sixty ( 60 ) days for this update to be reflected in your credit report. Although we will not delete the tradeline associated with your account, once we report your account as closed, we will no longer furnish information to the credit bureaus. Currently my XXXX account reports that the account is active, and have been reporting as late since the arrangement. I opened a dispute with XXXX and have yet to get a response. The inconvenience is causing a negative effect to my score in the process of me rebuilding my credit. I spoke to the credit monitoring department at credit acceptance yesterday and the the representative mentioned that it is a possibility not a promise that the account may be removed as of XXXX of XXXX. I'm asking that this account be removed from my complete credit profile via : XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX due to the violation and reporting false information. Thank you

XX/XX/2017 I was XXXX XXXX XXXX and was going over motor vehicle purchase contract and found missing information of the vehicle identification number and the odometer. I told them to fix the issues and I would come back and sign the contract. They never called back the vehicle was released to me that day. 2 weeks later I went back and requested the contract and was told it was taken care of. I still to this day have never had a signed contract with Credit acceptance corporation. And by Wisconsin statute trans 139.05 the contract must show include year, make, model, identification number. They also then submitted false statements about repairs made to the vehicle that stated they made repairs but only paid for XXXX dollars of a diagnostic fee from a towing company. And made claims that they made XXXX in repairs and their receipt shows that money was to cover transportation cost not repairs. They used intimidating statements throughout the process. The sheer number of violations including requesting a judgement and repossessing a vehicle without a valid contract as well as damaging that property. This shows excessive unfair sales and consumer violations. They also violated the dot requirements to submit for repossession title and notify the state of any handling of this contract. You will also not the only initial on the contract is arbitration clause and that they voided arbitration clause on filing a summary judgement.

Over the past 2 years Ive spoken with Credit Acceptance and XXXX several times and attempted to get this issue resolved with No result. Ive asked several times for a Letter of Validation from both Credit Acceptance and XXXX and havent received one although I was told it was mailed to me. I have done everything I was asked by both Credit Acceptance and XXXX with No updates or response in the past 6 months. Ive submitted both a Police Report and Affidavit of Fraud to show I am a True victim of Identity Theft. Still both Credit Acceptance and XXXX refuse to acknowledge my consumer complaint. I think its also a violation of my civil rights and discrimination. I almost at the point of retaining legal representation and filing a lawsuit against Credit Acceptance. I would like to know if I can get help here or what I can and should do next. Im attempting to fix this issue but its been a nightmare and XXXX stated they received something validating the account was mine however Ive never seen anything and they refuse to resend anything to me. I would just like to get this issue resolved promptly so that I can purchase a vehicle. It shows the vehicle as a repossession and someone named XXXX XXXX on the account.

I had already being paying on the loan at a 26 % interest rate with all payments being on time when I called to set up auto pay in an attempt to pay extra each month towards paying my loan off early. When I called I was told by the person answering the phone that I would have to provide proof of income before she could help me. I told her I already have a loan with them and was attempting to pay an additional amount each month in an effort to pay it off early. She continued to insist that I immediately provide her proof of my income before she would help me. I hung up and called back and spoke with someone else who told me I did not need to provide proof of income on a loan I already possessed. A few days ago, I received another call telling me I owed additional fees. I asked how that was possible since I pay extra each month anyway. The person was unable to provide me with the reason and continued to threaten to turn me over to collections and lower my credit score. I told them I was going to report them for harassment and extortion and they hung up. Today I began getting calls again for the same reason. I asked them to pull the recordings of the previous calls and was told they could not do that. I then asked why the pre-recorded message said " this call may be monitored for security purposes '' and again, they were unable to give me an answer.

I reached out to Credit Acceptance in XXXX of XXXX stating the retail installment agreement was invalid as there were many violation per 15 USC. I received a email from XXXX XXXX requesting a call to her to resolve. I later received a letter stating that all of the documents and reasoning I sent as to why the contract was invalid would not be upheld even though the laws stated the violations. No where in the contract does it say I can rescind at all. I then sent a cease and desist and requested to rescind the vehicle, after researching I found that not only was I not given the option to rescind 15 USC 1635 but I was violated as the dealership requested a down payment 15 USC 1638, the amount of {$2800.00} was added to the total but that was also subtracted from the down payment. The down payment took the total to {$32000.00}, how is a down payment added to the total of the car, shouldn't that be deducted if anything? The finance charge was {$11000.00} which should have been the sum of all charges per 15 USC 1605. The transaction was cash and credit which was unlawful per 15 USC 1638. The insurance should have been included in the finance charge. The vehicle was said to been sold for a little over {$8700.00}, leaving me still owing {$6700.00}. Per XXXX XXXX the car was only worth $ {$9500.00} on XX/XX/XXXX of XXXX Credit Acceptance along with XXXX XXXX have violated laws pertaining to this contract/ car transaction.

On XX/XX/18 I found a car online I wanted to buy. I did the credit application online and was approved for the 2015 XX/XX/XXXX XXXX for {$19000.00} So I drove 2 hours to XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXXin XXXX, NY. XXXX asked me to refill out the loan paperwork. He said I was not approved. XXXX said he would try other loan companies. Hour later said he couldnt get me a loan for the car I wanted but said if I got a cheaper car I could get approved. He had a XXXX XXXX with XXXX for {$14000.00}. With {$3100.00} down payment He said just get this car for now and trade it in in 6 months. 3 hours later I said okay. We get to the finance managers office and i sign paperwork for the amount and then he says I have to do the finance online. He sits in front of the computer and is scrolling and explaining. He says I have to get the {$3000.00} extended warranty or I cant get the loan. I said okay. Finally He says okay done Ill get the paperwork copies and bring them out to you. XXXX puts them in the glove box. 5 months later Im ready to trade the car in and I look at the paperwork it says I owe {$10000.00} more than the sale price. It said I bought the car for over {$21000.00}. Ive called for months trying to get them to fix it but they wont. The car wasnt worth {$21000.00} when I bought it. They committed fraud and violated the truth in lending act. The payments are hurting my family and ability to buy a home. Please help.

On XX/XX/XXXX I visited the XXXX dealership in XXXX, Maryland. I worked with a car salesman and found a XXXX XXXX XXXX that I wanted to get. The down payment was {$1800.00} and I advised the dealer and loan officer that I would not have the money until the first week of XXXX. Although papers were signed at that time, an agreement was made to hold the vehicle for 7 to 10 days. It was stipulated that I had to call in every few days to express my continued interest. On XX/XX/XXXX I paid {$1800.00} and left the dealership with my new car. My monthly payments, I later found out, should have been adjusted to the 2nd of each month. However, since it was not, I received a call a few weeks ago advising me that I owed a payment for XX/XX/XXXX. In good faith, I made the payment. Simultaneously I asked my bank to send me my records and discovered that I was current not behind. Despite letting Credit Acceptance know the above, I have been receiving calls to the point of harassment. On XX/XX/XXXX they called my number 20 times. Today I contacted XXXX and spoke to XXXX in the Loan Office and explained what is going on. I then let Credit Acceptance know that he would be providing the documentation needed to confirm that I am current. The calls still continue. It is XXXX XXXX and I already received two calls. I need Credit Acceptance to stop calling and harassing me please. Your help is deeply appreciated. Thank you. XXXX XXXX

The lender for my vehicle loan reported that my account was 30-59 days late TWICE. The two months that Credit Acceptance ( the finance company ) indicated that my payments were 30-59 days late are : XX/XX/2018 and XX/XX/2018. This is INCORRECT information on my credit reports. I made an agreement with Credit Acceptance Corporation for my monthly car payments to be withdrawn automatically on the XXXX day of each month. In XX/XX/2018, my payment ( admittedly ) could not be taken on the XX/XX/XXXX but instead it WAS successfully withdrawn out of my bank account by Credit Acceptance Corporation and paid on XX/XX/XXXX which is EIGHT days late - NOT thirty days late. The payment for XX/XX/2018 was not able to be withdrawn on the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXr but WAS successfully withdrawn by Credit Acceptance Corporation on XX/XX/2018 which made the payment for XX/XX/2018 24 days late, NOT thirty. Technically, I have not EVER made a car payment 30 days or longer late. Credit acceptance has reported FALSE information to the credit bureaus indicating that my payments for those two months ( XX/XX/2018 and XX/XX/2018 ) were 30-59 days late. That information needs to be CORRECTED IMMEDIATELY since Federal law states that a late payment can not be reported until it is at least 30 days past due as long as you pay BEFORE the thirtieth day mark which I in FACT DID do for ALL of the months since I first obtained the vehicle.

I am writing this letter on behalf of my father. I am his daughter and I just became care taker of his finances on XXXX XXXX, XXXX after he was hospitalized XXXX XXXX, XXXX. As I am currently reviewing my fathers finances, I came across his car note. I have many concerns about the contract being that my father is on a fixed income. He is requesting a reduction in the interest rate on the car payments. He requests you to reduce the current interest rate of 24.01 % to a more reasonable rate of 3.95 % so it is more in line with the current market rate for used cars. We have visited the websites of several competitors and notice that they are offering an interest rate much lower than what he is currently receiving. He stated that the whole process was confusing because of the electronic signature process. He was XXXX XXXX XXXX at the time and does not have a good understanding on todays technologies. After reviewing this information with my father, we feel that this contract is unfair. There is a scam that unscrupulous salesmen and load companies play on the elderly and I am hoping this is not the case. My father have been a solid customer with your company for the past 20 months and would appreciate your consideration of a lower rate on his account. You will find that he maintained an excellent history of payment with your company and would appreciate your consideration of a lowered rate at this time.

CA has been calling on weekend and never calls on weekdays. CA has been harassing me with unlawfully repetitious collections calls, and overcharging me on their deficiencies. They sent my voucher book to the wrong address in XXXX. Charged me {$25.00} late fee. During the pandemic promised to freeze the late fees but called every week on sunday and harrassed. Until I told them When I bought the car I was rushed by the sales man and nothing was mentuoned about the high interest fee. borrowers were subject to hidden finance charges because of which the companys loans exceeded the usury rate ceiling of 21 %. Credit Acceptance violated state consumer protection and debt collection laws and regulations.It was alleged that Credit Acceptance made unfair and deceptive auto loans to thousands of consumers in NY, provided investors with false or misleading information regarding auto securities they offered, and engaged in unfair debt-collection practices.Healey said in a statement, Thousands of NY consumers, many of them first-time car buyers, put their faith in CAC to help them with an auto loan, but were instead lured into high-cost loans, fell deeper in debt, and even lost their vehicles.Per this lawsuit, since XXXX, Credit Acceptance failed to inform investors that the pools of loans that were packaged and securitized were topped off with higher-risk loans despite claiming otherwise to investors.

I had purchased a car from XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXXXXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. While purchasing the car I had given them a checking account number from XXXXXXXX XXXX that I no longer use by mistake and they proceeded to process the loan. The loan holder was Credit Acceptance Co ( Account number XXXX ) In XX/XX/XXXX the car was repossessed without my knowledge that I had missed any payments. I was not informed payments were being missed. The first notice I had received was dated XX/XX/XXXX, showing a late payment {$490.00} ( attached ) then another late notice sated XX/XX/XXXX, that showed that I owed {$12000.00} in late payments and fees ( see attached ) On XX/XX/XXXX, I recovered the car through Credit Acceptance Co by paying the past due amount {$750.00} ( one payment past due plus repo fee, see attached ) and am now in possession of the car, with renegotiated loan terms, rolling the additional late payments back into the loan. Now that the car is no longer a repossession, I have reached out toe Credit Acceptance on numerous occasions to see if they could remove the repossession from my credit report. They have refused to do so. I was in the process of buying a home and with the repo on my credit report, I am no longer able to obtain financing because of the repo being on my report. I assumed by paying what I owed and retaining ownership of the car the repo could and would be removed from my report.

In XXXX XXXX I was looking for a cheap vehicle to purchase when I received my yearly income tax refund. I came across a small used car dealership near my home here in XXXX, XXXX called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX, XXXX XXXX. ( XXXX ) XXXX, ( XXXX ) XXXX. The Business was owned and operated by Both XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX who also owns XXXX XXXX at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX, XXXX XXXX. I had found a Small AWD XXXX Suzuki Aerio Sx vehicle that was on there lot.. A verbal agreement of XXXX was what the dealership wanted for this little car. However due to my income tax only being around XXXX we had agreed that I could use that money as a down payment and lease the rest. They had me lease the Vehicle with a company Called Credit Acceptance Corporation of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX Phone number XXXX XXXX. Which I then find out the vehicle had be lease for 4 times more then what the dealership was asking for the vehicle. The agremment was made for XXXX and now instead I 'm locked into a lease agreement with Credit acceptance Corporation for over XXXX not including the down payment in cash that XXXX XXXX XXXX accepted in the amount of XXXX. Any help with this situation will be greatly appreciated. Screen shots of the XXXX conversation that started in regards to the vehicle has been attached to the complaint. Owner of Auto dealership quickly deleted XXXX page after sale.

I recently purchased a new vehicle and traded in my XXXX XXXX XXXX. The dealership paid off my existing loan with Credit Acceptance Corp on XX/XX/XXXX. I contacted Credit Acceptance Corp after that date and asked when I would get my refund of the over payment. They stated I will have it by XX/XX/XXXX. Not sure why it takes 4 weeks to refund someone an over-payment when they have it all on their books effective XX/XX/XXXX. I called about four times through last week asking about my refund and they finally told me that it was {$540.00} approximately. I asked when they check was sent they stated XX/XX/XXXX. They also sent a separate document that laid out the payoff. I received that document via regular mail on XX/XX/XXXX. The check was not included in that letter. I called Credit Acceptance Corp again and they stated that letter comes out of a separate department than my refund check but they were both sent the same day. To this day I still have not received my check. This complaint is being filed because they have had my money for over a month and continue to tell me its in the mail when its been 12 days and I still have nothing, it should have arrived the same day as the other document. I am starting to thing they are scamming me and do not have the money to refund me. I ask the CFPB to look into this matter to investigate for potential fraudulent activity by Credit Acceptance Corp.

I was in a accident on XX/XX/XXXX where my car was totaled. Because of this my insurance paid XXXX off of the loan on. There was a small amount left XXXX dollars left. I was contacted about the amount by Credit Acceptance which I told them they would be paid but I would need a car to get back and forth to work right away then I would pay them off afterward. I did asked if they could add the amount on to the loan with the new car if not I would have to get car first then pay the remaining balance off soon after. Honestly I could have waited for the settlement from the accident to pay it. It was almost paid off years ahead of time at 23 % interest. Even though I let them know of the accident they have called several times in a week sometimes in a day. They know the situation of me having been out of work for 2 months on doctor 's orders and even though I went back to work I would have to use my pay for the first couple of weeks to buy a car for work. We went to get a car XX/XX/XXXX and we have found out that they sent the balance to collections even though I have paid all the way up to the accident and then the insurance paid most of the balance. Credit Acceptance has been paid almost all of the loan except for maybe the interest by XXXX XXXX XXXX. I feel as a first time credit purchase this company has tried to strong arm into paying off the total balance despite the situation.

THE XXXX XXXX XXXX WAS RETURNED TO THE DEALERSHIP! My name is XXXX XXXX and on XX/XX/XXXX I went to XXXX XXXX XXXX to purchase a used minivan XXXX XXXX XXXX with XXXX miles with XXXX and XXXX. I believe they are the owner. From the start, there was an issue with the entire process. The same dealership got 2 different loans on my credit report for the same vehicle ( one with XXXX XXXX XXXX, and this one with Credit Acceptance ) - one for {$7500.00} and the other of $ XXXX. I took the delivery of the vehicle on XX/XX/XXXX and Returned the vehicle back to them on XX/XX/XXXX around XXXX XXXX. When I asked there were 2 loans for the same vehicle on my credit report, they said that it was their mistake and they will handle it. The vehicle had a major mechanic issue, and it was fully returned before 30 days, and it doesn't pass any emission test. I attempted to return the vehicle earlier, but he kept giving me so many excuses for the reasons that he wasn't going to be there. I have never dealt with this before, and today I'm looking at my credit report and noticed that there are 2 loans of the different amount shown, which was fraudulently submitted by that dealership and its owners. Please be advice again that i don't have the vehicle in my possession and it was returned to the dealership. I've already called the dealership and the bank but no one seems to want to help. Best, XXXX XXXX

I originally went into a contract with XXXX XXXX and sports provided the contract was written as a consumer installment contract not a loan But credit acceptance has reported it as a vehicle finance loan as a finance loan it violates federal contract law in regards to finance charges 1026.4 Finance charge. subsection4 d part 2 ( i ) The insurance coverage may be obtained from a person of the consumer 's choice, and this fact is disclosed. ( A creditor may reserve the right to refuse to accept, for reasonable cause, an insurer offered by the consumer. ) ( ii ) If the coverage is obtained from or through the creditor, the premium for the initial term of insurance coverage shall be disclosed. If the term of insurance is less than the term of the transaction, the term of insurance shall also be disclosed.

I'm XXXX. I live in a hotel. I was able to got a car due to my bad credit.. I purchased a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. The loan is from Creditacceptance. I started driving for XXXX/ XXXX to get myself together. I accepted the terms of {$360.00} a month for 60 months. They loan interest rate of 23 percent. The total I would have to pay back was XXXX total. For the entire year I paid it. I was also told by the dealership that after a year I can call and negotiate my loan to get the interest lowered. I called the loan company and they said no they can not. I am still paying it. As of today XX/XX/XXXX, if I wanted to buy the car outright I would pay {$11000.00}. My car has dropped in valve fast because of the mileage from driving from XXXX/ XXXX. The value if I wanted to trade it i think when I check was around {$2200.00}. Which would leave me owing {$9200.00}. The other problem the car had 2 recalls. I took to the dealership they said it was fix and 5 days later the problem is still occurring. They said I need to buy a new engine and there nothing more they can do. This recall is the reason why my car was smoking and oil was leaking coolant leaking. I guess XXXX do not want to take responsibility for the problem they created. I contacted XXXX, ALSO XXXX MANUFACTURE. SO I CANT DRIVE BECAUSE IM AFRAID MY CAR WILL OVERHEAT AND SMOKE AND I HAVE THIS LOAN TO PAY. PLEASE HELP!!!!!!

I got approved for this car loan on XX/XX/XXXX I purchased my car the same day from XXXX XXXX, I returned the car to the creditor CreditAcceptance a few months later due to expensive mechanical issues. The car was sold on XX/XX/XXXX for XXXX but this creditor never contacted me to inform me about how much would it be the difference to pay for me to close this account and get it off of my credit. I found out they sold the car 7-8 months later after hundreds of call I basically spoke with the whole creditor company. i also requested the creditor to adjust that money they got for the car sale to my account but they instead offer me a suspicious 80 % percent discount of this bill and keep reporting late payments on my credit report when I actually owe them nothing I was also told they had a few action market fees but I still dont get why my bill is XXXX when the money they got for the car covered the money I owed to the creditor I have requested and I keep requesting a sale receipt for me to dispute this but the company refuses to send me this receipt all they keep saying is that they send it to my address but I dont be getting any mail from credit acceptance I needed it to prove the credit bureaus my statements. I disputed it to the credit bureau but my results wasnt positive due to the Creditor says my bill is accurate but this creditor hasnt sent me my car sale receipt yet.

I tired to payed them its been rough with money so I didnt call them. My bank called them today, XX/XX/XXXX they indicated I owed them {$3300.00}. I called them they asked for a settlement. They are now saying my account never closed, its still active and that I owe them {$8900.00}. I dont understand why I owe them this amount if they told my bank i owed them {$13000.00} in XX/XX/XXXX and they paid of my account with them. There information was misleading not only to me but to my bank. Im now stuck with still owing them and im paying my truck to my bank.

I am a consumer, a Federally protected Consumer and my name is XXXX XXXX. I am exercising my consumer rights and I am informing you that Credit Acceptance Corporation is violating my consumer laws. On XX/XX/2022, I sent a letter to Credit Acceptance Corporation and this ILLEGAL REPO of my vehicle. Reading the FCRA, Pursuant to 15 USC 1692e ( 4 ) - Foreclosures, Repossessions, Wage garnishment, or arrests are all illegal in the collection of any debts. This is similar to the 4th amendment. This is a Direct violation of 15 U.S.Code 1692e ( 4 ) and it's fraud and illegal in the collection of any debts. They are in violation of 1692d ( 4 ) - advertisement for sale of any debt to coerce payment of the debt. ( debt parking ) .Credit Acceptance Corporation is basically debt parking this account on my credit report and that is illegal. The advertisement or publication of a sale or selling of any debt to coerce payment is also known as debt parking in accordance with findings from the FTC. Once this illegal repo was taken place, I was suppose to receive some documents. The documents that I was suppose to receive was the Contract before the sale, Deficiency Documents, Redemption Documents, and Finance Documents. Also, I never received a response from the letter that I sent in on XX/XX/2022. What they are doing is unfair and it is illegal. Please protect my consumer rights.

I previously filed a complaint through the CFPB in XXXX of this year concerning credit acceptance and my account and extra fees that I was unaware of the fact that I told the car lot I didn't want the extra service plan it was in fact still charged to me in the amount of XXXX Credit Acceptance has since offered a settlement of XXXX dollars I feel considering I refused the extra service plan and was still charged for it I feel the settlement is unfair considering all the money in interest that Credit Acceptance made off the extra XXXX service plan I didn't agree to I would also want them to produce the original paper contract that has my wet signature agreeing to the extra service plan.I feel this loan should at the very least be closed and settled for zero, I feel as though I am one of many that Credit Acceptance in partnership with car lots do this bait and switch with the service contract to people who refuse this extra plan it's misleading and or fraudulent and designed to be financially damaging to the people who can afford it the least, and if they can't produce my wet signature on the extra service plan I should be reimbursed the XXXX and I feel like I want to see if it was forged and what point was it added because I never agreed to it at this point I have also been advised to seek out a consumer law attorney in this matter but I am hoping the CFPB can help me.

This is a formal complaint against Office Of The Attorney General located in XXXX, TX. This company has repeatedly violated my consumer rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act as well as the Fair Credit Billing Act and has caused me much unnecessary financial AND mental distress. For starters, they're reporting an erroneous & unverifiable account on my credit report and not to mention an account in which I've asked for proof of claim and in which they have not been able to provide, per the FCRA & FCBA. Despite my efforts to resolve this unfortunate nightmare for several months now, Office Of The Attorney General has completely ignored my communications and legal submissions to remove this inaccurate information from my credit report. I am well aware of several other complaints filed against this company for their illegal and unethical business practices. Yet, somehow, this company is still in business. This company 's unprofessional & negligent behavior has caused lots of serious harm, not only to my ability to establish credit & good interest rates, but also to my character as a Professional and as an individual. Please help me, and the many other consumers just like me, to put a stop to the operation of these unethical & immoral business practices immediately. I sincerely appreciate your time and assistance in this matter and hope to hear from you very soon.

Around XXXX XXXX, XXXX i purchased a XXXX XXXX XXXX for the advertised price of roughly XXXX XXXX. i was told That Credit acceptance can not authorize me to purchase a vehicle higher than that price, and that after 1 years of on-time payments i can refinance and purchase a different car. When i contacted Credit Acceptance to refinance, they told me there is nothing they can do. Due to Credit Acceptance High interest Rate ( I currently Pay 23.99 % APR ) No one will refinance at {$16000.00} loan for a car that is only worth roughly {$6000.00}. by time the care is paid off i will have paid over {$30000.00} for a car when credit acceptance and its representing dealer told me they can not finance me for anything over {$14000.00}. I believe that not only my down payment for the vehicle was misrepresented in the final quote, but also that Credit Acceptance knowingly Provided me with false information so that they can illegally charge me an outrages APR. Currently whenever i make a payment i am not given a receipt for the remaining balance and i also noticed that out of my payment of XXXX every month only XXXX of it is applied to the principle value of the car. Credit acceptance needs to be investigated for deceptive practices as well as false advertisement. If an individual can only be approved for {$14000.00} car how do they end up paying over {$30000.00} in the end?.

on XXXX XXXX i purchased a XXXX XXXX XXXX from XXXXXXXX XXXX which was financed through credit acceptance for {$27000.00}. with a 72 moth payment plan of XXXX. But i did not know that the dealer who i bought the car from added extended warranty, gap insurance, and roadside assistance, which added almost XXXX in extra to the amount being financed plus interest. on XXXX XXXX i called credit acceptance to get those extra items removed. They removed those extra items from the original amount financed but said my monthly payments would still be the same. I asked how is that possible when almost XXXX in extra charges were taken from the original loan amount, I was told that i would just be paying the car off early. i explained to credit acceptance that the contract is for 72 months, how can that be changed. i was told that i would just be paying the car off early. I explained to credit acceptance that at this time i do not wish to pay the car off early and would like my monthly payments to be adjusted to what the contract says which is 72mnths of payments for the amount financed i told there is nothing that can be done. This is clearly a breach of the original contract by forcing me to pay the loan off early than the agreed upon time frame that the loan is to be paid back and i will be getting legal counsel with this matter it just doe not feel right to me

In XXXX XXXX I went to XXXX XXXX and began a purchase of a XXXX XXXX XXXX. I called Credit Acceptance XXXX Company concerned about the loan and asked if certain things were legal. I even questioned the blue policy of financing a vehicle over the blue book value. The gentleman on the phone said that vehicle was worth the amount that was financed. I financed XXXX for a vehicle that was only worth at best XXXX or XXXX XXXX dollars. After I signed, the contract I found out that the vehicle blue book was below further below for my specific vehicle and that there was a vehicle recall. hazard of rear ended and other issues. The vehicle also was a lemon. I had to have the transmission replaced twice and engine work. The axle broke in the front. Credit Acceptance repossessed my vehicle several times. each time adding excessive fee to recover the vehicle in addition to the cost of the impound and storage fees. I called and tried to alter arrangement by a couple days because of error with my payroll. I would have the money a couple days later. They just came and picked the vehicle up after I had just payed to get it back just a few weeks earlier.I explained to them the vehicle had broken down again and I had to pay for repairs. They received almost XXXX XXXX extra dollars in repossession fees alone in addition to the fact that the vehicle loan amount was too high.

At this point why would somebody say I will be okay for the next 90 days but I still get harassed daily.

Long story short a payment was missed 2 years ago resulting in the repossession of my vehicle. From the date of the missed payment until the repossession no other payments were missed. Made several attempts to have the payment added to the end of the lease as a finale payment but the company declined to do so. After the vehicle was possessed I began the process of recovery. Paid the past due balance in full as well as misc. fees accrued by the repo process including a new key {$170.00} for the vehicle which brings me to my complaint. The vehicle was taken on a Saturday and I recovered the property on the next available business day to do so. I told the representative over the phone that the key was not necessary and that I have the ability to re-program my key thus making theirs useless to me. I accepted the key over the phone under duress ( stated over phone ) because if not I would n't be able to recover my property. When I signed the paperwork to release the vehicle I included in writing I was refusing the key and left it with the person handling the release of my vehicle. Flash forward a few months and im received threating calls to have my car " XXXX '' or that they will repo ... ..again. Im not too sure how this process works but im not a fan of how this company has conducted themselves thus far and hopefully this will help my voice be heard.

In regards to the creditor Credit Acceptance account # XXXX This item has been disputed numerous times it was removed from my credit report back in XXXX of XXXX from a dispute that went into collections. Then was re-inserted to my credit report as an active open account as of XX/XX/XXXX. I contacted the creditor XX/XX/XXXX to validate the debt and was informed that the account has been in there internal collections department since XXXX of XXXX. I mentioned to the claims dept specialist that they removed the account from my report for 2 years being in collections and that they were reporting false information to the bureaus. They have been reporting late payments since XX/XX/XXXX knowing that the account was in collections. I mentioned how an account can not be in collections and treated as an active account, and his reply was it is an active account in our internal collections department. Reporting false information is a violation according to the fair credit reporting act. I also contacted the three bureaus in regards to this matter XX/XX/XXXX which led to another dispute with each bureau. Also on my report there is no history of previous dispute investigations. Which is another violation, I would dearly appreciate your assistance in this matter. I'll also be attaching the supporting documents from my credit report from XXXX Thank you so much

I am writing this letter in regards to the Credit Acceptance account on my credit file # XXXX. The payment history for this XXXX XXXX # XXXX reflects the month of XX/XX/XXXX reported as 60 days late on XXXX, 30 days late on XXXX and 30 days late on XXXX. The payment history also reported the month of XX/XX/XXXX as 90 days late on XXXX, 60 days late on XXXX and 60 days late on XXXX. This is inaccurate and places into question which credit bureau is reporting the correct information, there is no way you can be late 60 days and 30 days in the same month. Also, late payments can not be legally verified without furnishing a copy of the creditors bank statements to show proof of missing or late payments. I am requesting a copy of the bank statements from Credit Acceptance for the account # XXXX for the months of XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. If you can not furnish legal proof of missing or late payments via their bank statements and provide them to me, then I am requesting you update this account to paid on time, never late for the months of XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX due to inaccuracies and false reporting. Please keep in mind that in XXXX the New York State Office of the Attorney General and the CFPB have sued Credit Acceptance for hiding the true cost of credit, setting up borrowers to fail and closing its eyes to harmful practices against consumers.

This is a formal complaint against Credit Acceptance located in XXXX XXXX. MI. This company has repeatedly violated my consumer rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act as well as the Fair Credit Billing Act and has caused me much unnecessary financial AND mental distress. For starters, they're reporting an erroneous & unverifiable account on my credit report and not to mention an account in which I've asked for proof of claim and in which they have not been able to provide, per the FCRA & FCBA. Despite my efforts to resolve this unfortunate nightmare for several months now, Credit Acceptance has completely ignored my communications and legal submissions to remove this inaccurate information from my credit report. I am well aware of several other complaints filed against this company for their illegal and unethical business practices. Yet, somehow, this company is still in business. This company 's unprofessional & negligent behavior has caused lots of serious harm, not only to my ability to establish credit & good interest rates, but also to my character as a Professional and as an individual. Please help me, and the many other consumers just like me, to put a stop to the operation of these unethical & immoral business practices immediately. I sincerely appreciate your time and assistance in this matter and hope to hear from you very soon.

In 2018 I had my truck towed in to shop for repair ( XXXX XXXX ) during this time I lost my job and called credit acceptance to ask if they could work with me while I find work.. they was very nasty and said that they needed to pick the truck up on repo... I told they that I surrender the truck and where the truck was located, which they knew because the truck had a tracking system on it ... they call me a year later asking for truck I replied you said you was picking it up, far as I know they did pick it up at some point. However they send me letters every month asking for balance that was remaining on truck in XX/XX/2018, they report in to credit agencies every month that I'm late and passed due... I tried taking with the credit reporting agency and credit acceptance about this, however you can't talk to credit acceptance they are not nice at all and credit agencies will not truly investigate and fix the reporting errors .... I paid and still pay credit repair company but they same to get same response .... I done research a this is an ongoing problem with credit acceptance... aswell as credit agencies allowing this type things to happen over and over by same company... .this has be going on for 4 years, haven't had that truck that long and it still being reported as if I have it and late pay every month... that fraud within itself ....

Ok so the Credit Acceptance calls several times daily are irritating. let me tell you why .... 1. ) Covid XXXX up XXXX 2. ) My husband left XX/XX/XXXX and stuck me with every single bill 3. ) I lost my job due to covid XX/XX/XXXX and WAS NOT eligible for unemployment 4. ) I have a XXXX that has XXXX XXXX and XXXX 5. ) THEY TOOK OUT DOUBLE PAYMENTS FROM XXXX, XXXX, XXXX & XX/XX/XXXX that I DID NOT AUTHORIZE!!!!! 6. ) Because of said double payments being taken, I technically didn't owe a car payment until XX/XX/XXXX BUT they claimed I was several months behind even though I wasn't because of the non-authorized payments being taken. Now, I have been without a vehicle since XX/XX/XXXX because the repo 'd and I'm not able to get my XXXX to her XXXX treatments. So no, when they call, I will not answer. I made {$480.00} wages in XXXX because of covid. That's less than my car payment of $ XXXX. My tax money from last tax season was set aside for that payment until they took out double payments. So yeah, please tell me why I should answer my phone when they are this terrible. I had a XXXX XXXX ... .which isn't the car I wanted originally. I wanted one that was cheaper that I would be able to pay off in 24 months not 5 1/2 years at $ XXXX but they refused to approve a cheaper car in my budget. Sincerly, A very XXXX off ex-customer XXXX XXXX

The company. Credit Acceptance doesnt have a charter, functioning illegally and unlawfully. There is no original contact with my or my son, XXXX XXXX, autograph signature. Therefore Credit acceptances representatives collected payment under fraudulent actions. The alleged debt was disputed through notarized letter XX/XX/2021 and sent certified mail, return receipt XX/XX/2021. The company did not prove the alleged debt by satisfying our request for proof. Violation of The Fair Debt Collections Practices Act. The company proceeded on XX/XX/2021 to seize property & through coercion forced XXXX XXXX, secured party to immediately pay to have property released an back to him causing disruption and distress to his livelihood. I filed a complaint to you on XXXX XXXX, undersigneds behalf at the end of XXXX with XXXX XXXX as Additional Point of Contact which is on your website contained in the full complaint # XXXX, STEP 5 ; The companys response was sent to my email and continuously I attempted to open it to no avail. I emailed you, spoke to XXXX, XXXX and Ms.XXXX who the latter two said I am not authorized because my name is not on the complaint. I have print out proof as me being authorized. So your error has prolonged this problem & Credit Acceptance has continue to move forward in fraudulent actions. I have reached out to legal support.

Credit Acceptance XXXX XX/XX/2020 To whom it may concern : I have a car loan through XXXXredit Acceptance. My payment is {$400.00} a month. I made payments until Covid hit and missed a couple payments. They would not work with you during the global pandemic. They reported it to the credit bureau and totally destroyed my credit that i was rebuilding. Once we were able to I started making extra payments a month. I was caugh up in one month. When i called to question why my principal did not go down by the amount of the double payment. I was told we dont do that. It is redicilous. I was also forced to purchase an extended warranty for the car. Our mechanic had called a few times to get something approved and it is always a no. That was something I was told was supposed to be covered. Nothing was ever covered. I would like the extended warranty money refunded, from when i bought the car, plus interest and have that applied to the loan. I would like to have the extra money that i paid applied to the principal. I would then like a final payoff. The reality of the situation is that I have already paid the car off. I would also like to know what my next step should be. I will put the payment money in an escrow account. I will not send it to Credit Acceptance. Sincerely yours, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX, OH XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORP {$6900.00} I was only a co-signer on this loan for my ex girlfriend. After we broke up she said shell make sure to take care of the payments and that was fine, a few months later I saw the report on my credit report saying the car was repossessed and due to natural disaster flooding. I followed up with creditors and they couldnt fine anything to update me on but that what they knew the car was in XXXX TX and because of the hurricane that happen maybe that was the cause. I asked why wasnt I called about this or missed payments and was told they was reaching out to XXXX XXXX with no response, and I asked why wasnt I reached out about this before hand they couldnt tell me. I explained to them I was only the co-signer on the car and had never driven the car and I also didnt know it was in XXXX TX when at the time when I sign for the car it was in New Jersey and I had no knowledge of the car leaving the state and I shouldnt be reliable to this. They still couldnt tell me what happen to the car but on my report it was listed as a repo and cause natural disaster so I assumed the car was damaged in the hurricane and they are trying to collect money and also I was not contacted about this and had no knowledge of this until I saw my credit report. I tried reaching out to her and no answer and have no ways of reaching her.

On XX/XX/2019 my credit report is showing that I am 150 and 120 's days late in the most recent 12 months. The problem occurred when I fell behind on my truck note because of some financial difficulties and the truck was repossessed. The finance company Credit Acceptance ( CA ), added repo fees and late payments to my account totalling {$3000.00}. I talked to ( CA ) and I paid the repo fees ( {$1200.00} ) and was able to set up payment arrangements and I got the truck back. CA did not explain that the late payments and fees would become part of my present payment and not be placed on the end of the account. Now CA is requiring the {$3000.00} to be paid first and until it is paid my account will remain 150 to 120 days late and reports this the credit bureau. I have has been making the agreed payments on time each month but it is still showing late because of the {$3000.00} balance. My credit report is being ruined because of this. I spoke to CA to see if something could be worked out concerning this to help me improve my credit and CA refused to help with anything. According to the payment arrangments set if I continue to pay {$550.00} a month, only {$75.00} is going towards the{$3000.00}. This means that it will take nearly two years for this balance to be removed and by then 120, 150 days will increase to where my credit is ruined.

After being affected financially/physically by Covid-19, Credit Acceptance Corporation placed my account in a Covid protected status in XX/XX/XXXX and reported to the credit bureaus as affected by natural disaster. Per the company, this was effective through XX/XX/XXXX. I have made payments during the protected status. My standard payment is {$450.00} a month and I have been paying {$560.00} the past three months. On XX/XX/XXXX, Credit Acceptance reported to all three credit bureaus as me being late from XX/XX/XXXX to current. This is completely false. They reported to XXXX and XXXX that I made no payments during XX/XX/XXXX through Present and to XXXX that I made no payments XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX. Last month, my account read 100 % payment history and now this month Im showing 11 missed payments? Its not true. It has dropped my credit score over 100 points! When I called and spoke to a representative, I was told once Covid protection ended we marked all customers late during those months. How is that allowed? Its unethical. The last representative I spoke with said maybe just pay the car off and then you dont have to worry about it. Who has XXXX during a pandemic? Please help me have them remove all late charges as I was a victim of Covid, not late and was in Covid protected status and the information reported is false.

On Sunday ( XX/XX/XXXX ), XXXX XXXX texted me from XXXX asking me if it was ready for them to pick up that night. They came and picked it up. I attached a video from my camera. I told her the keys were in the cupholder and she needed gas because the gas light was on. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received the attached letter from Credit Acceptance stating this was a repossession. It was not a involuntary repossession, I surrendered it. I sent the attached email to the compliance analyst XXXX XXXX stating I had voluntarily surrendered it. I sent it to her because she was the only email contact I had. Credit Acceptance took it upon themselves to mark my account " do not contact '' via email. I voluntarily surrendered the car. Credit acceptance has only credited my payments to their {$17000.00} finance charge. Only {$100.00} of the original loan balance has been paid off. From XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX, I paid {$520.00} a month. XX/XX/XXXX I paid {$500.00}. None of those payments went to the loan balance that shows on my credit. The credit bureaus all stated the information they receive from Credit Acceptance is what is reported on my credit report. Please see complaint XXXX for reference.

In XX/XX/XXXX Credit Acceptance Corporation closed my account ( XXXX ) referring it to an outside lawyers office for handling. The account with Credit Acceptance was opened in XXXX of XXXX. After 5 years and 3 months of the account being reported as " Closed - Referred to Outside Collection Agency/Attorney '' - Credit Acceptance re-opened the account, along with falsely updating the payment status to reflect past due 120 days. During a time in our world where we are not promised tomorrow, I find it extremely disappointing this company would resort to these measures. Credit Acceptance is intentionally reporting these inaccuracies to further delay the statue of limitations of this account. As previously stated, with this account being reported as Closed since XXXX, it was scheduled to be removed from my credit report in XX/XX/XXXX. With the current reported information it has extended the time until XXXX. I never received any calls from Credit Acceptance requesting the account to be re-opened, neither the co-applicant or myself make any payments on this account nor were there any recent payment arrangements. In contacting the Credit Acceptance I spoke with a Supervisor by the name of XXXX - who stated the following : " I'm quite sure us reporting the account closed for five years benefited you but I have nothing to do with that ''.

I purchased the vehicle in XX/XX/2021 and have not received my tag as of this date..I have had constant contact with the company who told me not to pay the payment, as they themselves did not have the title to the vehicle. I still continued to contact this company, to no avail. Now in XXXX, I start getting collection calls after I was told not to pay and my constant phone calls telling them I need my tag. I get pulled over every time I drive just about. Someone was supposed to call and I still get collection calls but no-one calls about the tag. This company received the tag in XXXX amd that us when these collection calls began. Now they try to tell me that I know I owe money, that I should just pay the payment and go get a new tag. This upsets me completely, as I did not pay because I was informed not to. I also checked my online account, in which never had a payment due. I informed them that they need to correct their error, reporting to the credit bureau that I am late, send me my tags that I paid for and We will get the car taken care of. I just want out of this situation as it is causing more stress than I care to deal with. I can't trade the car because of them reporting to the credit bureau, I ca n't drive the car because of them but I can't get anywhere. I just keep getting collection calls with no resolve.

I was desperate to find a low cost vehicle and planned on buying used. I am having financial hardship. Went to XXXX XXXX. I requested to see car advertised on XXXX. Price slightly less than {$17000.00}. Nothing explained to me before signing agreement with XXXX and Credit Acceptance Corporation. Payment > $ XXXX/month. I told them I can not afford the payment and broke down crying. I expected a ~ {$13000.00} loan. I put {$4000.00} down. The purchase price was listed as {$23000.00}. {$10000.00} more than expected. I was told ; because of my bad credit the only way a financial company will loan me any money is if its above a certain amount ... .to be determined by the lender. I anticipated higher interest rate but theirs higher than anticipated. 22.99 %. I said well if they require more money for the loan I will get a better car. I was told, oh NO you can not do that. I asked why? Because they will add more money to that loan. I asked about a new car for that amount and told they wont finance a new car. I was being told that I had to do this type of financing because of my bad credit and I felt forced into signing contract because they told me I couldnt do better anywhere else. I asked 2 other car loan companies about their financing and they said they dont do that. One company was XXXX XXXX who sent me your contact information.

This is a formal complaint against XXXX XXXX located in XXXX, VA. This company has repeatedly violated my consumer rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act as well as the Fair Credit Billing Act and has caused me much unnecessary financial AND mental distress. For starters, they're reporting an erroneous & unverifiable account on my credit report and not to mention an account in which I've asked for proof of claim and in which they have not been able to provide, per the FCRA & FCBA. Despite my efforts to resolve this unfortunate nightmare for several months now, XXXX XXXX has completely ignored my communications and legal submissions to remove this inaccurate information from my credit report. I am well aware of several other complaints filed against this company for their illegal and unethical business practices. Yet, somehow, this company is still in business. This company 's unprofessional & negligent behavior has caused lots of serious harm, not only to my ability to establish credit & good interest rates, but also to my character as a Professional and as an individual. Please help me, and the many other consumers just like me, to put a stop to the operation of these unethical & immoral business practices immediately. I sincerely appreciate your time and assistance in this matter and hope to hear from you very soon.

The week I took the truck for the PA mechanical inspection it did not pass, I had to pay for repairs out of my wallet because they did not accept the repair policy that the dealer made me buy. After a year of payments and calls for repairs, they have not been able to give me an answer and my bank account is XXXX over the transfer and I have asked to refinance with other companies and they do not accept due to the excessive cost of the truck and the title is damaged, thanks for listen to me

I have a car loan with Credit Acceptance Corp ( XXXX, MI ) I entered into a payment plan of weekly payments in the amount of {$130.00}. They at some point change their close of month date so although Im on reoccurring payments every week on saturdays to be auto drafted out of my checking account, the month close day aye a week before my last pay in that month. Which then reflects as a late payment on my end for that month. I have not missed a payment yet the close of month date for the company changed in turn effected hoe the report to all 3 credit bureaus. Each month they reported my account late drastically affecting my credit score and has caused me not to be able to obtain another vehicle loan with any company Ive applied for. In XX/XX/XXXX I expressed my concerns with the company and not 1 representative mention the companies monthly close date in XX/XX/XXXX. Called again and no one was able to tell me why, finally in XX/XX/XXXX I spoke with a representative and she explained why. On XX/XX/XXXX, I payed a week forward so that my payment would show completed in their close of month cycle and be calculated as an on time payment and asked my account can be monthly on my due date instead of weekly to insure my account is paid on time and within the close of month cycle. Since then they still have reported it late

ok in XXXX i purchased a car a XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and the finance company was Credit Acceptance. The car was in a accident in XX/XX/XXXX the car was totaled and the at fault insurance company totaled the car, i advised the insurance company that i wanted to keep the car which i did,,, they estimated the value of the car and told me that they would send the check for the value of the car with my name on it and the lean holder which was Credit Acceptance. i sent the entire check to credit acceptance and paid the off they kept the entire check and stated it covered the balance of my loan so i wouldn't any of the money because it paid my loan completely off .. they sent my me title and to my XXXX XXXX XXXX ... i couldn't get my title until the total loan was paid off so the check that was sent to them covered my loan .... so now i don't know why they are showing negative remarks on my credit report and showing that the loan was settled less than full balance,,,, they wouldn't release my title until the loan was completely paid off so why they put that inaccurate remark on my credit report i paid that entire loan off with the check the insurance company sent me, they need to removed that remark or remove the entire account from my credit report because the loan was paid in full, ,and not less than full balance,,,,

I purchased a used XXXX XXXX XXXX from a XXXX dealership in XX/XX/XXXX. During the process of signing the paperwork, I was told the selling price would be XXXX but after getting home and looking over the paperwork with the finance company I seen the price total with Credit Acceptance is XXXX. I had to put a down payment of XXXX in order to get the vehicle. The problem I am having is the finance charge is 20.99 % totaling XXXX making the total payments owed minus the down payment is XXXX. I inquired with the loan company and was told on numerous occasions that my credit was not good, but I assumed that was why I paid the higher down payment. This is not the first time I have financed vehicles and now the vehicle is out of warranty where the radio is not covered, and my panoramic sunroof is not secure and the driver 's side door was like someone tried to break into the vehicle. The windshield had a small chip on very end of the windshield which over a few months has spreaded across the windshield with record heat days the last few months. The salesman at that time told me it was covered under warranty, and I could bring it in, and they would repair these problems. I have yet to get any of this fixed as well as get an explanation of why I am being charged an additional XXXX to the amount the vehicle was sold for XXXX.

I am due to make the final payment on my car loan, with Credit Acceptance, on XX/XX/XXXX. According to their web site my final balance is {$440.00}. A few weeks ago I called them to verify the balance on my loan. The agent would not give me the information I requested. She kept dancing around the issue and saying she couldn't give me an amount until XX/XX/XXXX, when my payment was due. I made the XXXX payment on XX/XX/XXXX. She just wanted to talk about a past due payment they say I owe. In XX/XX/XXXX they added {$620.00} to my account from a repossession in XXXX. I retrieved the car. I have made a total of {$740.00} extra on my payments since XXXX, XXXX. I should not owe {$120.00} past due. I haven't missed a payment since XXXX. They have continually given me problems when I call and won't answer my questions. In XXXX the site listed {$190.00} past due. Today it was {$320.00}. It changes daily going up and down. I have asked if that is part of my balance or extra. They won't answer my direct question. I live on Social Security and need the information I asked for so I can make my final payment on XX/XX/XXXX. They take advantage of people who have financial problems and during the past two years, with COVID, they won't help me. I have paid 29 % interest for 65 months. XXXX is the end of my contract. Please help me.

Credit Acceptance made a 6 month verbal agreement with me during a difficult financial period I was going through. To catch up or continue to stay in good standing with the company I was told to make payment of {$660.00} per month for 6 months back in - I believe XX/XX/2019. After adhering to the verbal agreement, I was to go back to making regular payments of {$550.00} / month. After about 3 months I started receiving notices to repossess my car and they had reportEd me being late on my credit report. After I contacted Credit Acceptance, they denied ever making the agreement. They tried to say I was talking with an employee that didnt know what she was doing. This is unacceptable and I should not have to suffer consequences because of an agreement made by your company. I continued to receive notices that my car would be repossessed and they reported to credit agencies that I was delinquent. I continue to make my payments on time and even caught up that extra payment. It is still reflecting on my credit report. They have caused me to have loans denied when I am able financially, I plan to pursue this legally. Please intervene so that my credit report gets corrected and so that no one else has to go through this. They have also been mean and disrespectful with me over the phone. This is no way to conduct business!!!

Credit acceptance corporation ordered scam tow companies to illegally search and seize my vehicles. Credit acceptance corporation superseded rule of law and XXXX XXXX XXXX by seizing the vehicles without first obtaining the writ of execution to submit to XXXX XXXX XXXX Credit acceptance corporation was supposed to fill out OS/SS-99 ( R8/15 ) instructions for default security agreement and OS/SS-55 ( R8/15 ) notice of seizure of motor vehicle with the writ of execution attached and send it over to the repossession and title department in XXXX XXXX XXXX but did not. They are engaging in vin switching/cloning, stolen car scam and salvage switch. They couldnt get a title for my vehicle so they got a title in New York. I have all of their strategies, tactics and methods. I want to sue them and I will give you all the information you need on credit acceptance corporation. No court decided a contract between myself and credit acceptance corporation to be enforceable. Credit acceptance took advantage of me like they are doing everybody in the low income community. But I have their methods. The attorney general here already started suits against them for deceptive practicing, unlawful repossession and amongst other things. Credit acceptance corporation not acting alone, it is also the tow companies and the auto auctions.

I was fasley misled into a loan contract on XX/XX/ by credit acceptance and car XXXX auto dealer. I was told by the car dealer as well as a representative from credit acceptance that I had a additional XXXX mile warranty coverage after the dealer warranty expires. I called today to find out that isn't true. I was told today by a credit acceptance rep that the warranty expires afer XXXX miles or 24 months whichever comes first. I was never told this. I was told I had a additional XXXX miles coverage by both credit acceptance and the dealer. Which is why i agreed. I previously had transmission issues with my last car and this additional coverage would be great to have. I was given paperwork from credit acceptance stating my warranty will begin at XXXX miles. Being told its nothing they can do about it is disheartening. My interest rate is high at 22.99 %, I paid almost 2 times over the original price of my car. I was asked if i wanted to change my pmt date. I agreed and then was being charged late fees due to not paying on original loan date. Even though my autopay was set up for the XXXX of each month. I found out this recently. I paid my car note and I received a repossession letter. Credit acceptance has put me in a real financial bind. The contract was not explained properly and hyped. I feel taken advantage of.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX Credit Acceptance Account # XXXX To whom it may concern, Thank you for taking the time to help me get this corrected. I purchased a new vehicle ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) in XXXX of XXXX and I financed it through Credit Acceptance. Unfortunately I fell behind on my payments due to XXXX XXXX and had 6 late payments from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. Since the late payments were due to work shutdowns due to XXXX XXXX, I was told that as long as I continued to make my payments on time that my account would be reported as current, XXXX XXXX, or no information provided. In order to protect my credit I continued to make all the payments on time and even paid off the loan early on XX/XX/XXXX. Unfortunately Credit Acceptance reported and still is reporting that my account was severely delinquent throughout XXXX and XXXX on XXXX, 3 late payments on XXXX, and zero late payments on XXXX. All 3 reports are reporting different information from Credit Acceptance concerning my account. This is not only inaccurate, it is unlawful. They are required by law to only report true and accurate information. Due to these inaccuracies, I have experienced more expensive auto insurance, higher credit card rates, and I am unable to purchase a home. I need this corrected as soon as possible. Thank you.

The lender repossessed my vehicle on XX/XX/2018 causing severe damage to the vehicle by the towing company they hired to perform the repo. The " aggressive '' towing practices of the repossession placed excessive force on rear steering parts vital to safe driving, which caused those parts to brake. A claim was filed with the lender which they refused to investigate. The lender has not provided any written explanation as to why they denied the claim or if they indeed performed an investigation. The repair shop that car was held at was never contacted by the lender as part of their investigation. The vehicle was inoperable for over two weeks because I lacked the funds to cover the repairs. My warranty company would not cover the parts because they claimed " excessive force '' caused the parts to malfunction. The tech at the repair shop also suspected that a " towing company was the probable cause '' of the damage. This has placed an overwhelming amount of financial pressure on my family considering I did not have a way of reliably getting to work, in addition to coming up with the funds to pay for the repairs out of pocket. The lender sent me a letter stating I have not contacted them regarding the matter which I responded to because I've reached out to them several times via phone and email. See attachments.

On XX/XX/XXXX I co signed on a car loan through credit acceptance. But in XXXX to my understanding XX/XX/XXXX I believe it was voluntarily repossessed by the other applicant. During that time the car was sold at auction and the balance to my understanding was left at XXXX. I have NEVER been contacted by credit acceptance until I reached out XXXX of this year and asked why not only was I NOT notified about the XXXX it had accumulated in interest charges but when I asked what I could do to get it taken off my credit I was told they could take it off for XXXX that same day or I could finance another car with them. I tried to get answers as to why I was never contacted about the debt and all I was told is they reached out. The only proof I was sent was a copy of the original contact. Im very upset because they have also updated my credit report several times with incorrect information in order for it to look like a new debt and allow more time for them to force me to pay whatever amount they ask. All Im asking is for someone to review the information. I am entitled to know of any debt in my name within a timely matter. They shouldnt be allowed to wait 5 years and then ask me to pay XXXX and never give me a chance to confirm the debt or allow me to make payment arrangements when the debt is in collections from XXXX

The term non-public personal information means personally identifiable financial information ( i ) provided by a consumer to a financial institution ; ( ii ) resulting from any transaction with the consumer or any service performed for the consumer. Congress stated results from any transaction with the consumer so sharing non-public personal information to the consumer reporting agencies such as late payments you are in violation .Furnishing negative information is a violation of the consumer credit protection act. You are only furnishing this negative information because your company policies allow you to use unlawful extortionate means to coerce a consumer to make payments on extension of credit.

I spoke to a lady name XXXX from credit acceptance and she said they could help to just get a estimate for the car. Then crier acceptance calls back and says there no warrant with the it's only with the dealer. The dealer is not at the location I brought he car they closed down. The phone number I have for them she answers then hangs up. I have no car and credit acceptance is not trying to do anything to help. They just want me to keep paying them and I don't even have the car to drive which is messing up my credit if I don't pay them. I have ask credit acceptance to locate them or give me the number they have and it's the same number I have & the same number on XXXX. I just want somebody to help me because this is unfair for my first car I only drove it for 4 months transmission should be messed up so fast. I paid over XXXX already between the car insurance and putting money into the car. If I don't have the car I don't think I should be pay XXXX for 4 years with no vehicle.

Hello, I recently received a response to a dispute that I made under FCRA 611a regarding questionable and inaccurate items ( s ) around XX/XX/2023, on my credit report. I was confused when I learned you somehow " verified '' the disputed items, and they are still on my credit report. Can you confirm how this investigation was conducted and what the MOV was that was used? I am not disputing this again ; I'm specifically asking for the method of verification for the below. As you know, in Cushman v TransUnion, Stevenson v. TRW ( XXXX ), and Richardson v. Fleet ( XXXX ), the courts ruled each and every time that the CRA couldn't merely " parrot '' data from the creditors and collection agencies ... that were required to conduct an independent REASONABLE investigation to ensure the validity of the debt and the integrity of the creditor and collection agency in question. Sending out a generic form through the XXXX system for the dispute is not reasonable! Please FULLY validate with details on how you verified this ( names of people you spoke with and contact numbers ). If you are unable to do so, DELETE THIS ACCOUNT off my credit report forever, or I will gladly escalate to the CFPB and have my consumer protection attorney file court proceedings. Thank you and I sincerely look forward to your response.

I purchase a use XXXX XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX, 4 months later the car was in a accident. I had insurance but it it issue a little late but was active and when the insurance company found out about the auto accident they didn't honor my payment, So i contacted my lender and told them my situation. I did have gap insurance. The lender sent their insurance appraiser to appraise the damage. The car was total with all air bags deploy and unrepairable damage. But their appraiser came back and said we miss the coverage of the gap coverage by {$100.00} dollar and they wont cover cause the damages was more then the car value by XXXX dollars.. So i stop making payments on a car that i could not drive. i ask them to pick the car up then to sell it and i owe the balance. They stated that they didn't want the car. So after the first few month of non payment they stop reporting it on my credit report .. Fast forward 3 & 1/2 yr later they stared reporting miss payments and adding charges.. I do not understand why this car was not charge off. I'm thinking they got paid for the car already with there gap insurance and still trying to collect them selves. this account is 5 & 1/2 years old and they still reporting late payments on my credit report and i never receive statements balance or nothing, how can they do this?

I purchased a vehicle from " XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX '' in XXXX, Florida. The salesman lied and sold me the vehicle, and the only paperwork I signed was with the understanding that I was purchasing this vehicle for a total amount of XXXX. I then receive information from Credit Acceptance stating I owed XXXX. I have never signed or agreed to such a ridiculous amount for a 2014 XXXX XXXX ( former police vehicle stripped I might add ) close to 10 was pushing it. When I contacted the dealer, he stated not a big deal to call the credit company and refinance. I never agreed to this amount. He was very rude then, and no longer wanted to speak of it. My mother called him as well she was also met with very nasty, rude and unprofessional behavior. We then tried to explain the situation to Credit Acceptance, sent the forms we have showing the significant difference in price, and they just referred us back to the dealer stating they could send the forms, but had nothing further to do with the situation. I am not sure what transpired, but I do know that I did not electronically sign my name to XXXX. The total never came up and was never discussed. I would have never agreed to this amount. I no longer want this vehicle and know that I was scammed during the pandemic with the knowledge that resources were very limited.

Credit acceptance had a representative to contact me that was suppose to be a part of their legal team. I have informed them that one the vehicle debt has gone beyond the statue of limitations to collect. Two the account is not on me for collection because XXXX XXXX XXXX along with Credit Acceptance Authorized sale of this vehicle at an auction and I was never informed or made aware of this. The vehicle was damaged in the flood of Hurricane Harvey and it was taken to XXXX XXXX and it was not inspected by the insurance company until XXXX because they were so far behind. They lied and stated that they tried to send me a message by mail and that makes no sense when the Service Manager literally came to my job to discuss the vehicle. I went to the dealership and the vehicle was not there. I was told it was sold in an auction and It could not been sold unless Credit Acceptance approved and at no point was I informed of this. I have not been infirmed how much the vehicle was sold for. I have no idea If there was a surplus of of funds and if the proceeds was applied to the balance. I believe that this debt is fraudulent and it remains on my credit as an active account being reported as a late payment and open account as of XX/XX/2021. I no longer expect them to be honest in their reporting of this account.

I went into XXXX XXXX two and a half weeks ago to purchase a car And I needed a co-signer so I asked my friend XXXX XXXX to co-sign for me. XXXX put the whole car contract in her name without permission they also lied to me about everything the monthly cost of the car note, the place I was signing on the contract. They refused to let us see the contract they told us to come back when the bank was open to pick it up. They just had a lot of fraudulent practices. my friend and I went in there to return the car and they refused. She called your company who was willing to terminate the lease and the guy at XXXX who gave your representative and us several different names refused to terminate the lease. This whole ordeal was fraud. I never received a contract to date. The car needs repairs, and I was told that the car payment would cost me {$530.00} a month, it wasnt until XXXX asked for the contract from your company that showed me a payment that I can not afford. XXXX is saying you changed the amount to $ XXXX per month. I can not afford the vehicle at that rate, and its wrong for the contract to be in my friends plus she doesnt work, and I do not want her credit to be impacted her name she not be in the loan and she doesnt have access to the car or drive it. I am begging you to terminate the contract.

I previously contacted your agency on XXXX XXXX, 2015 regarding my loan with Credit Acceptance Corporation ( CAC ). At that time, you accepted CAC 's response that they had tried and failed to contact me with an explanation of the money that was supposedly due them. You were given false information as I have not received any phone calls or written correspondence from CAC with any information. In fact, I have called CAC numerous times to try to straighten this out only to be transferred from person to person ( who could n't answer my questions ) and be falsely told that someone would be call me back with answers. To date, as I stated above, no one has contacted me. Because of this lack of communication on CAC 's part, my truck was re-possessed this morning. I think the way this matter was handled by CAC has been unfair, unlawful and unethical. I will be attaching a spread sheet showing what was due and what was paid as well as a copy of my initial complaint to you. I need to get to the bottom of this as when they took my truck, my daughter 's purse was in the truck which contained her driver 's license and her social security card as well as those of her minor children. As she is a school bus driver, she can not work without her driver 's license. This situation has gotten out of hand, please help.

Bad Warranty Car Vehicle was bought /signed for the amount of {$8300.00} from used car lot. My name was copied and pasted unto more paperwork stating that I would pay back double that amount. No way would I have signed for that. Within 1 month of purchasing the vehicle the car started acting funny. I took it back to the place and the one who sold me the vehicle no longer worked there. I do know " Lemon Law. '' The North Carolina Lemon Law, also known as the New Motor Vehicles Warranties Act ( N.C.G.S. It requires manufacturers to repair defects that affect the use, value, or safety of a new motor vehicle within the first 24 months or XXXX miles ( whichever comes first ). I was told that the car was sold " AS IS '' but I asked them where was the paperwork saying " As Is ''. I called Credit Acceptance and they said they couldn't do anything about the issue as well. 5 months down the line, the vehicle gave out at work. The car wouldn't start, the wheel wouldn't turn and also the wheel locked up. I called Credit Acceptance right than and there. As you look at my paperwork, how my name is signed, that's not my handwriting. Back in 2016, Credit Acceptance went through XXXX of lawsuit loans. Meaning their loans were bad. Credit Acceptance didn't tell the truth to the investors when loans were given out.

My vehicle loan with Credit Acceptance Corporation became delinquent in XXXX. They charged off the account in XX/XX/XXXX and continued to report charge off account for XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX of XXXX. They changed the account from charge off status to delinquent in XX/XX/XXXX. The vehicle is inoperable however to work on improving my credit I began making payments on the account after the charge off. The account is reporting past due over {$8500.00} with a balance due of {$9000.00}. CAC reporting strategy is causing me to show as if I have an account that is open and seriously past due. Lenders are more likely to work with you if there is a charge off account that you are paying down verse an account reporting as open and over 150 days past due. The account had been charged off and should remain in that status. I am curious to know if CAC took advantage of tax benefits from charging off the account. I believe this is a deliberate act to further damage their customer 's credit when they default on a loan. I am also not in agreement with the way that they allow you to make a payment arrangement but will not update the credit reporting to reflect the payment arrangement. When you call to speak with their customer service representatives they do not seem to be able to help you beyond making a payment.

I purchased the car in XXXX. My original loan amount was approximately {$9300.00}. My payments are {$270.00} a month. My loan is held by Credit Acceptance Corp. When I originally got the loan, I arranged for my payment date to line up with my pay dates, at the end of every month. I submitted my payments by that payment date. Approximately 4 years later, I learned that the company had been considering all my payments as late and I believe reported it to the credit agencies as such. They also assessed late fees to my payments without notifying me. Several of my payments have not been recorded or counted toward the payment of my car or debt. As a result, I have been paying on the car for almost five ( 5 ) years, and I am told that I still owe over {$4000.00} on my car. I have proof of my payments on months which they said were not paid. I presented proof of payment and was ignored. I have repeatedly requested payment history and have never received such. They do not send my monthly statements, and the online account with the company does not allow you to see payment history. There have never been any attempts to repossess my car, despite the inaccurate claims of non-payment. At this point, I believe I have more than paid off this debt, I also believe they have severely damaged my credit history.

On XX/XX/2021 Credit Acceptance reported my payment for the month of XXXX as late when I had a billable credit card on file with the company. The issue is I was directed to put a card on file for automatic billing and I was advised I " could '' use a credit card not a debit card. I followed instructions by placing a credit card on file only to have this form of payment rejected. I was not notified about the rejected payment and or the late payment until after the 30 day period. The issue is that I was told by a representative on XX/XX/XXXX that a " credit card '' was a sufficient form of payment and that it could be added to my profile. My complaint is I now have a late payment on my credit report which ruined my credit and any chances of purchasing a home I already had under contract. I lost the home and the mortgage pre approval and my credit score dropped over 100 points. i reached out to Credit Acceptance via there dispute process and was denied any validation and or correction of the error and consideration of removing the " Late Payment '' in good faith. My payments were current before and after this incident and I have suffered a great loss due to this error on their part. Credit Acceptance needs to post acceptable forms of payment in their online website payment portal.

I financed a vehicle from Credit Acceptance a few years ago. In XXXX of 2021 I traded the vehicle in. The dealership sent the check out and it was cashed. From XXXX til XXXX I kept receiving calls from Credit acceptance say that my account was passed due. And each time they told me they hadn't received a check or payment. I called the dealership provided Credit acceptance with the check date and number and they could not find it in the system. Finally someone asked if I would give them permission to speak the dealership that I went to about my account to which I agreed. Credit Acceptance spoke to the dealership in late XXXX and the dealership faxed them all the proof that the check was sent and cashed. As it turned out the check had been stolen. Since the check was in fact sent and they now had all the evidence and a replacement check Credit Acceptance agreed to close out the account and fix and errors on my credit. They closed out the account XX/XX/2021 but never corrected the errors.I have called many times since and I still haven't received the dispute paperwork they said they would send out. I filed a dispute with the credit bureau but, Credit acceptance said all the information was accurate so I have these things stuck on my credit saying I was past due even tho they agreed to fix it.

They told me its nothing can do bout it i had to take it up with the car dealership but they was scam artist because they lost the company because of all of the complaints that was sent to them from other people. So i had no other choice but to give up the vehicle because i couldn't pay no more on it. So i choice to let it go because i had to provide for my family to get a home over our head.

I was the principal co-signer for my son on an auto loan with Credit Acceptance. On XX/XX/2018 when I contacted Credit Acceptance they stated the account was delinquent in XXXX. Why wasn't I contacted? I am the prinicipal co signer! Credit Acceptance did not advise me of delinquency on the account. As far as I knew the account was current. Credit Acceptance has a legal obligation to keep me informed especially since I was the principal signer. Credit Acceptance had offered an SFL offer of {$2400.00} valid through XX/XX/2018. We were going to honor that SFL offer and pay before XX/XX/2018. But instead of honoring their SFL offer Credit Acceptance on XX/XX/2018 illegally and unethically closed the account, sent it to collections and plummeted my credit score. I worked hard to build up my credit. In doing so I was going to purchase a car in XX/XX/2018. But since Credit Acceptances ' adverse action on my account, I won't be able to make my much-needed auto purchase. Credit Acceptance failed in their fiduciary responsibility by not keeping me advised of the accounts ' status, closing the account and sending it to collections prior to honoring their SFL offer valid through XX/XX/2018. These corrosive actions are simialr to predatory lending practices which are illegal. I want to be made whole!

I currently have a joint auto loan that has a remaining balance of {$9900.00}. The vehicle was repossessed in 2019. My issue is that at the time of the purchase, I made the dealer aware of what payments I could afford. The amount they kept offering was at least {$200.00} above my budget, but the dealer insisted that If i paid that amount for 6 months on time, my payment would go down the my desire. I declined that offer. The dealer then went on to offer to write me a check for the difference in the car payments for the 6 months, so that I will only have to pay what I could afford out of my pocket and the check would cover the difference. I agreed to that. However, the dealer did not issue a check for he 6 months difference. I was allowed to take the car home that day and the called the next day for me to sign the paperwork after further negotiations with the creditor. The payment was higher than the initial offer. The dealer and the creditor preyed on us and stuck us in the contract that was not affordable. They set me up to have this repossession. They knowingly set us up with this high level of risk. I have let the creditor know several times that we were thrown into this deal and that it was not affordable. Now, this is impacting both of our credits when we were scammed into this deal.

On XX/XX/2018 I requested a payoff amount on my auto loan through Credit Acceptance Corp, in XXXX Michigan. They faxed it to me, I then worked w/ my hometown bank to get a lower interest rate. On XX/XX/XXXX my bank sent the requested amount ( attached is the check ) Credit Acceptance cashed the check on the XX/XX/XXXX of the month. I spoke to them on that date and they said there was a {$10.00} balance that they would just get rid of and close my account. I thought the matter was closed. On XX/XX/XXXX I received a " hit '' to my credit report, as did my husband, who is also on the account for the car. I called Credit Acceptance and they said there was a balance and I was late for the payment ( according to documents attached, my payment is due on the XX/XX/XXXX of the month. I told them I was told by them they were going to get rid of the {$10.00} and close the account, clearly they didn't do that. They agreed to the wipe of money but then I asked what about my credit hit I took. They stated it was a valid dock on my account because I was late. If that were the case, I would have given them the {$10.00} that moment, but I do not deserve such a hit to my credit nor does my husband. I am unable to help how quickly they cash a check, or receive by mail. My bank sent it in time.

XX/XX/2021 somebody charged my debit card in XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) first time for {$2500.00} and then for {$580.00} through the Credit Acceptance Corp., and twice by {$9.00} through the XXXX XXXX. Totally for {$3100.00}. We asked the XXXX to stop processing. However, the XXXX ignored our request and has processed these charges. Some time later we found in the XXXX 's Message Center that this claim is " resolved -claim not paid ''. I never used services of the Credit Acceptance Corp. and had no idea about its existence. The information on the internet suggests that it is a company that is financing subprime automobile loans. Evidently, it has to check credentials of any person who is applying for the loan. Therefore, the Credit Acceptance Corp. has information about this person. Hopefully, the XXXX informed the Credit Acceptance Corp. and that company could initiate a criminal investigation. However, nothing was done. I have no idea who got this loan. The Credit Acceptance Corp. didn't inform me about operations where my identity was involved. It looks that the loan was done for another person who got a car under this loan, but paid by my debit card. How it is possible I can not imagine. By the way, supposedly, the XXXX XXXX is also involved in this fraud, but as an intermediary.

We purchase the XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX last year in XX/XX/XXXX. The vehicle did not have the warranty so we brought a extended warranty. There have been several recalls on this vehicle. I ask them can we trade the vehicle and get something else which can even out the difference. They told me that I could purchase another vehicle and they said I would get another car so they appraise it and they assure me that I would not have put anything down. Then the next day they told me that I had to come up with some money, but you told me that I did not since you had all of these rebates. I feel this is bad business practice and that they knew this XXXX XXXX had no warranty but yet it was out on the parking lot for sale. We only had this vehicle for a year and put XXXX down as they down payment and it still has had 2 recalls within the past year. Also I want to add this we purchase the vehicle at XXXX XXXX at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ten XXXX phone number is XXXX. The website is XXXX. This company is not providing the needs of the customer if the product is defective. I will have to wait several days in order for them to find out what is wrong with my vehicle but what is the vehicle breaks down ...

I owed credit acceptance about {$7000.00} for a car loan. They took me to court and everything got settled and the judge ordered me to pay XXXX % of my gross income every week until the debt is paid off. They are not to contact me anymore or to harass me over the phone. Since the Judge gave his judgement, credit acceptance has still been calling me, harassing me and they are now claiming to be the United States government. I have changed my number several times and they still find me and claim to be the United States government or a representative from the student loan forgiveness program seeking to get my personal information such as my bank account. When i use a different number to call them back, they pick up the phone saying " credit acceptance ''. Since everything was settled in court, they no longer have the right to contact me in any way, especially making false accusations claiming they are the United States government. I have taken other actions such as making a police report and reporting them to the FTC, but they continue to call me and family members around me. When I do n't give them what they want, they start using foul language, hang up and sometimes call me as much as 55 times a day. They call using several different phone numbers, but the main one is XXXX ( XXXX, IL )

On XX/XX/2021 I paid my regular monthly payment of {$370.00} which was due XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX Credit Acceptance reported this payment to the credit bureaus as 30 days late. That information they are reporting is false. That payment I made on XX/XX/2021 was only 19 days late, not 30. I called them several times to get them to remove the derogatory remark from my credit report. As a result of this false 30 day late payment entry on my credit reports, my credit scores dropped 40 points. I have worked really hard to keep my finances in order and this is too much to handle. I sent them a certified letter requesting validation that they have competent evidence that they received my XX/XX/2021 payment 30 days late. They claimed that I have {$50.00} in late charges and they reported the late charges as 30 days late. This is a blatant and total violation of the agreement which I signed. Only contracted payments in the amount of {$370.00} should be considered 30 days late if they are paid 30 days from the due date, not late fees. A late fee in the amount of {$37.00} is NOT a contracted monthly payment. I demand that this false 30 day late payment be deleted from all 3 credit reporting agencies immediately, in accordance to the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Fair Dept Collection Practices Act.

Credit Acceptance is a predatory loan company that uses overly agressive debt collection tactics against their customers. They misrepresent the guidelines of their loans to potential customers and incentivize auto dealers into issuing these loans. My vehicle was repossessed, even though I was actively attempting to work with the company to get my payments made on time and in a way that I could afford. When the vehicle was repossessed, it was taken to auction at a location over a hour away from my home, even though there are multiple other auto auction locations much closer to where I live. I paid the amount to release the vehicle, but they will not return the vehicle and expect me to find transportation XXXX miles away to retrieve the vehicle. After contacting customer support, I found that this is a tactic of theirs because they know that the further away they take the vehicle, the less likely it is for the individual to retrieve the vehicle and they can then put it up for auction. Credit Acceptance is a predatory loan company that takes advantage of people with low credit scores and people that are in financial hardship. I would highly recommend not doing business with them. I will be persuing legal action against them and I suggest anyone else with similar issues do the same.

Credit Acceptance has given me the most horrible experience. Their company has a history of complaints and unethical practices. Its motto, " We change lives, '' yes they do change your life to XXXX. They have been reporting on my credit for over 5 years now and adding interest I am assuming not sure because the car has been with their company for over 5 years and the interest just started in XXXX. I reached out to them, and they sent me a payment history that is so different than what they are reporting on my credit report. I called and spoke to someone and they told me my account is open when for 4 years my account was closed. How does a closed account become reopened with no merchandise? Credit Acceptance 's loan performance disclosures belie a deeply flawed business model. In XXXX, Michigan thus far in XXXX, nearly one in eight of all available civil lawsuits filed in the city involve Credit Acceptance suing borrowers. They have been untruthful regarding Truth In Lending Act violations due to hidden finance charges. I want this company to " do the right thing ''. Something is wrong with the morals and ethics of this company. People are more than just a profit. Do honest business with clients. Please stop reporting inaccurate and start practicing ethical business with customers.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, LA XXXX sold a XXXX XXXX XXXX to myself with a co-signer XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, they claim that I would have to sign a NEW CONTRACT and a NEW PROMISSORY NOTE ( # 2 ). We both resign the contract and I noticed that the original creditor never signed to contract anywhere. I tried to endorse the NOTE " Pay to the Order of the United States of America without Recourse '' originally but the resign was all electronic so i was not able to make the endorsement of the NOTE as I am the MAKER and Owner of the NOTE. The account was sold to CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORP. I sent DEBT VALIDATION DOCUMENTS demanding that they validate the DEBT and they have failed to do so to this date. The COLLECTION AGENCY admitted that they didn't HAVE THE ORIGINAL PROMISSORY NOTE and I concluded that they do not have the RIGHTS or STANDING to collect the debt. On XX/XX/XXXX, CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORP tried to ILLEGALLY REPOSSESS THE VEHICLE, resulting in myself hiding the vehicle until they can legally VALIDATE THE DEBT. I have recorded conversations with COLLECTOR where they claim they have a signed contract between myself, co-signer and CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORP and have failed to produce any proof of a VALID AGREEMENT AND/OR CONTRACT. They are in DISHONOR!

I went into a car dealership in early/mid month of XXXX 2017 to finance a vehicle. But the car I wanted was sold so the finance lady showed me a XXXX XXXX XXXX which was {$16.00} & And a XXXX XXXX XXXX for {$7900.00}, & I was to put {$1000.00} down payment & I put a {$100.00} to hold the vehicles until I got a word back on if I was approved for financing. So she called me to come in to talk about rates next day. And when I showed up she showed me approval for the cars and they up the prices for the XXXX XXXX from {$16000.00} to {$20000.00} with {$5000.00} down & the XXXX XXXX from {$7900.00} to {$10000.00} with {$2000.00} down. & I told her I could n't do the down payment and would try to do {$2000.00} for the XXXX XXXX. so I signed a Rmv-1 form to bring back with insurance stamp & down payment but I could n't get the other {$1000.00} down. So we did n't go any further with the transaction or paper work and never took possession or registered the vehicle & come to find out the dealership fraudulently signed a contract with a Electric signature and sent a contract over to the bank which I have called and informed them that the contract was not signed by me I 've never seen or even got a copy of any contract and they refused to cancel the contract.

I XXXX XXXX am a living breathing man created by God. I hereby in Good Faith am pursuing my right to 15 U.S.C 1635 A ( f ) to Rescind this transaction with XXXX XXXX Acct # XXXX. Amongst the several violations found within this transaction I was not disclosed my right to rescind which is an obligation required under this section together with the statement containing the material disclosures required under the sub chapter. XXXXheyre also obligated to clearly and conspicuously disclose this information in which they have failed to do so. I am rescinding this transaction as I have been deceived and manipulated into making payments even though the Finance Charge in pursuant to 15 U.S.C 1605 clearly states that A Finance Charge is the sum of ALL charges which also includes the insurance. They deceived me and made me purchase an outside third party insurance as well which is included in the XXXXinance Charge with interest. More proof that I was mislead and misinformed. Im exercising my God given rights and my right to rescind this fraudulent contract as there are many violations within the Truth-In-Lending disclosure ( TILA ) and Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) as Ive never given anyone permissible purpose to furnish any of this information being reported on my Consumer Report.

Credit Acceptance Corporation is known for predatory lending. It has been 7 years since I've had an account with them ( XX/XX/XXXX ), the account is required by law to be removed. Credit Acceptance Corporation is still marking the " Closed '' auto loan as delinquent and has marked up the interest on the account +63 % of what the auto loan was originally for to this date ( XX/XX/XXXX ). I have been removed from any liability with this auto loan by a Arizona Superior Court Judge and will never make a payment on it. Last I checked, it is illegal to keep an item on a credit report forever. As of today it will be going on 7 years with each month a derogatory mark on my credit report. I am ready to go to court and settle this once and for all. I have disputed with Credit Acceptance, and all 3 credit bureaus with a response of " Account marked as accurate. '' With whom did they verify with? The creditor who has lost several lawsuits in the XXXX of millions for their credit reporting and predatory lending? That's invalid and doesn't hold water. After this complaint, I suggest that this be reported to the Arizona Attorney General 's Office to hold Credit Acceptance Corporation criminally liable for " Contempt of Court '', which is failing to adhere to the ruling of a sitting Judge.

I am disputing again for the investigation to be reprocessed. This was due to a data breach that resulted from I-9 files being compromised. I was not the person who made this transaction. Per credit acceptance I needed to submit proof of the data breach and new social security card that was part of the XXXX XXXX XXXX compensation package which I did and that evidence was not shown in the follow up to the original response # XXXX. I have a check from XXXX for reimbursement of the car ( before interest ) that was illegally taken out in my name from someone who used copies of identification and not the originals to purchase the car. This was a mutual agreement to prevent a lawsuit. Due to that situation a few weeks later the dealership has went out of business. I am attaching copies of the check, my new social security card that I had to obtain due to this as well as proof of the data breach. Credit acceptance stated all calls are monitored and recorded I would like a analysis done from calls coming from that account before XX/XX/2022 and copies to support my case if its needed to go to trial as well as trying to identify. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX is the address of the rent office that all packages, delivery drivers, XXXX and any other forms of 3rd party communication goes too.

I took out a loan in XXXX of XXXX for a used car with a huge interest rate because of my credit issues from a very corrupt suto company and it was financied through Credit Acceptance. I n XXXX if XXXX the car was repossed due to late payments I paid the past due amount in XXXX to get the car back from repossession. This is where my tragedy starts, when I picked the car up from the auction the interior was completely covered in MOLD. So much that I could n't sit in tbe car. The auction attempted to clean the car claiming it was sent that way from the repo company i called the finance company credit acceptance and told themI could not drive th e car because of the mold. The auction cleaned the car was still filled with black mold. I told the finance company I could not keep the car even after extensive cleaning. I have XXXX boys bor n at 27 weeks I let credit acceptance know my son is extremely allergic I can not drive him around in the car. They refused to take responsibility for the fact that their repo company left the windows down and the car was rained in for almost 2 months on and off. What was I to do. I had them come and get the car after they refused to help clean the car so I could drive it with m y children. I have pictures to coloborate my story

Company reported me 30 days late when I was on automatic withdrawal. I never had a 30 day late. I am requesting that the XXXX request all payment history in writing from Credit Acceptance. This will show there was never a 30 day late and I am asking them to correct this or I will escalate the issue. Further, in the beginning of the loan. If payments were received after the due date, they took the money ( late fee $ ) from the payment 1st, then apply the remainder interest and then principal last. Towards the end of the loan, they " stopped '' this practice.. And stopped collecting any late fee 's from the automatic withdrawal payments and " rolled them over '' The account was on an automatic withdrawal for years.. If I was running late, where are the letters requesting payment of the fees? Why did you not collect any fee 's from my automatic payments. Further you can see late fees in XXXX Again, when payments are not received in the grace period, they took the incoming payment and applied any of the payment towards the LATE FEE 'S first, then the remainder to INTEREST, and whatever was remaining to principal. I am not sure when they decided to switch that and " roll over '' fee 's for months.. It's unethical and illegal. If this is not fixed, I am filing a lawsuit.

Credit Acceptance Corporation, this was an account that became active on my account in XXXX. This was a result of fraud someone used my name and social security along with drivers license and signed under my name for a auto loan that Ive been fighting for the past four years. I finally thought it was resolved in XXXX when the account seemed to have dropped off my credit file and wasnt reporting showed up closed when I looked on XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX and XXXX. Then all of a sudden in XXXX I saw it come back and drop my credit score down. I have tried to resolve this so many times between XXXX and XXXX, with nothing done by the company stating that they cant do anything even though I told them it was fraud and that I have nothing to do with the joint owner or the address they have on file. Im not involved in any of this. They even told me that the car was totaled in XXXX of XXXX and the account was closed yet all of a sudden its back on my credit file. I shouldnt have to pay for others criminal activity. Im trying to live a honest hardworking life with my family, and I cant even get a leg up with my own business due to the negative affects of the loan in question. This isnt my loan it was never authorized by me or given any form of cosent u was never aware of it at a all.

We bought a new car from XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX NM on XX/XX/XXXX. We put down {$7000.00} on the XXXX XXXX XXXX. Rhe original price quoted on their website was alittle under {$20000.00}. But by the time we put the money down the total price for the car wasThe loan is in my husband and my name we were not told that the finance company ( Credit Acceptance ) charged us approximately {$7000.00} fee to finance both of us. When I called the car Dealer XXXX XXXX. No one could explain to me the reason for the finance charge. I was then hung up on. So we called credit Acceptance and they stated that the fee was between us ( my husband and myself ) and the car dealership. So we contacted the dealership again and tried to speak to the finance person and was told that he was to busy to take the call. We now have left messages with the dealership everyday since XX/XX/XXXX to which no one has called us back. We would like some resolution to this issue as we feel that we were bullied to sign papers and not given time to read the contract or anything. My husband and I are both over XXXX XXXX XXXX and really feel like the dealership stuck it to us. Also, none of the paperwork reflects the correct mileage on the car. We disputed that as well. Some papers say 10 miles and some say 1 mile.

I also informed them of the pain medicine that caused me to tire and become incoherent, also my medical condition were very visible, but they continued to be very persistent.

I filed a claim and later was told that my then insurance company paid off a large percentage of the vehicle, and left a balance, of which I requested payment information, but did not receive any written documentations. Since the vehicle loss, on many occasions I've unsuccessfully requested information of payment and balances Also, during the beginning of the vehicle loss, it was listed as a natural disaster loss and account closed. Throughout time Credit Acceptance has changed this notation on my Credit Reports and reopened the loan also adding more fees to the account.The loan agreement was not completely explained to me, I later learnt the information.

This company have abused my rights to fair credit. They have been reporting many times over multiple years incorrect information. This company reported the same account over 3 times to negatively affect my credit score. First the company reported the wrong amount on the account to my report ( 1st time a negative impact, credit drops dramatically ), then re-report the same exact account with a different amount ( 2nd time a negative impact, credit drops ) all in the same year. A year later the company takes it away then re-report it but only this time adds a remark to the account stating voluntary surrender ( 3rd time a negative impact, credit drops ). Lastly, 3+ years later and as of today re-reports the same exact account and changes voluntary surrender to repossession ( 4th time a negative impact, credit drops ). This is very unfair and have caused a financial disaster for me and my family. These actions have changed my life for the worst and are a result of lenders taking opportunities I once had and still would have away from me! I have information and screenshots of all the times this account was reported and changed around. Each time I was negatively affected! I will submit the proof and I have reached out to the attorney general for help regarding this matter.

Because of the Pandemic during the months of XXXX and XX/XX/2020 the car payments were late. I called the Lender and explained that Millions of people were waiting for their unemployment payments due to not working because of pandemic. Lender agreed that I would not be penalized for late payments. All of a sudden I notice my credit score drops 30 points because the lender reported me late. I was able to make my XX/XX/2020 Payment because I received the {$1200.00} stimulus check but I was still waiting on my unemployment. I Filed for that unemployment in XXXX and did not receive my first check until XX/XX/2020 and you will see that on my credit report I made a payment of XXXX and XXXX at one time. The lender did this on purpose they know late payment will drop your score and if they keep your score low they stay in business. Something needs to be done about this type of fraud. I have no problem allowing my cell phone records to be pulled to show proof there were calls to the lender during that time. What other reason would I be calling the lender? I have never called them since getting the loan and since the last call to dispute. Infact I can show my bank statements where I was not charged late fees for that month so then why was I reported late to credit bureau.

My wife and I entered a contract to purchase a XXXX XXXX XXXX financed by Credit Acceptance ( housed near XXXX, Michigan ) on XX/XX/2018. As of today ( XX/XX/2018 ) we still owe {$27000.00} on the car, it's worth according to XXXX XXXX XXXX as of the same date is nearly {$20000.00} less than what we owe. I believe this contract is unlawful, fraudulent and unconstitutional. I do not believe it is legal to charge people nearly $ XXXX over the course of 5 years for a vehicle that is valued under {$10000.00}. In only five or six short months we have already paid nearly {$3000.00} in monthly payments, never late. These payments are in addition to the {$2500.00} down payment we paid at the time of purchase. We called Credit Acceptance to renegotiate the terms and we were met with rude remarks and disrespect. Surely our original agreement is illegal. There are loan sharking usury laws in place in this country and interest can not be astronomical. Please help. After further investigation it seems that XXXX and XXXX are subject to much higher interest rates on car loans due to discriminatory crediting practices. If my wife and I were a XXXX couple, we would have received a much better deal. This contract is illegal on many grounds and should be revamped or abolished.

Credit Acceptance sold a 19 year old debt to XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX in XXXX, IL. now they called me and say they want to collect. The first representative said a court order was already filed in XXXX County under an attorney named XXXX XXXX and that I had missed my court hearing back in XXXX of XXXX. I told him they needed to serve me court papers, he said it was public notice and I do n't have to be served, then I asked him his name and he quickly transferred me to another person. The next person would not give me her name either. but she said this was not filed in court yet and I needed to pay them {$11000.00}. As soon as I told her this was almost 20years old she hung up on me. I tried calling them back asking for an address for the company and the woman on the phone refused to give their business address. I pulled my credit report and they are on it that is how I was able to obtain their address and phone number. How can they have a right to be on my credit report? I resolved this issue back in XXXX, but that company still sold my information to another company. I went through the shooting at XXXX XXXX XXXX and my anxiety has slowly been settling down when this call comes in. Again I am not sleeping, I am afraid to go out doors. Thank you for this website.

I am writing regarding inaccurate information being reported on my XXXX Credit Report by Credit Acceptance Corporation located in XXXX, MI. My auto loan account with this company was included in a Chapter XXXX Bankruptcy, which was filed XX/XX/2016 and discharged XX/XX/2016. Upon reviewing my XXXX credit report after the bankruptcy discharge, I noticed that the company reported I " failed to pay '' XX/XX/XXXX. My account was paid and never late prior to the bankruptcy filing. Additionally, I continued to make payments after the date of bankruptcy filing date. In the end, the vehicle was included in the bankruptcy. I have filed multiple disputes with the XXXX Credit Agency regarding Credit Acceptance 's derogatory information, which included my bank statements verifying that I have never made a late, only to have the company respond to the dispute confirming that the " failure to pay '' is accurate. The negative " failure to pay '' that is being reflected on my XXXX Credit Report is causing my credit score to have nearly a XXXX point difference than the other XXXX credit reporting agencies. This is a significant difference and has impacted my ability to rebuild credit after my bankruptcy. The substantial difference is a red flag to potential creditors.

I fell behind on my car note payments so I called Credit Acceptance to make arrangements. Even after doing this and them agreeing to the arrangement they still repossessed my car. I went through the proper steps to get my car back and I noticed the day I picked it up that the car was not driving like it use to! I spoke with a mechanic that asked if it was in an accident or something recently? Other that the tow/repo company coming and repossessing my car there were no accidents and issues with my car! The car is a XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX which is a front wheel drive vehicle. Come to find out the tow truck/repo company towed my car improperly which cause damage to the front end according to the mechanic. Damage that was not present prior to the date it was towed by the repo company. Up until then I havent had anything wrong with the car. I opened a dispute with credit acceptance requesting they repair the {$2500.00} worth of damage that was a direct result of the improper towing of the car during repossession which I feel they should be held responsible for. To date they still have not fixed my car or let me know what they dispute results are. I have diagnostic reports from the mechanics and my out of pocket expenses and video showing the improper tow

I received a auto loan from Credit Acceptance in XX/XX/XXXX. In XX/XX/XXXX or XX/XX/XXXX Credit Acceptance sent for my car to be repossessed. I was forced to pay over {$300.00} to get my car back. Upon investigation of their claim of a past due amount, Credit Acceptance admitted that the REPOSSESSION was an error, and my account would be credited for the repossession/ storage fees. I paid the loan off in XX/XX/XXXX. The lender claimed I still owed money in XX/XX/XXXX, so I requested a detailed statement of account payments. The information provided was not clear and only confused matters. So I added all payment amounts posted by Credit Acceptance and it showed I was all paid up but they still refuse to release my title to car. In XX/XX/XXXX, Credit Acceptance sent a repossession company to my house to extort me for a payment or they was going have them take the car. They also reported to the major credit reporting agencies false information, claiming account is closed even though there is a clear dispute with regards to amounts left on record as owed. Credit Acceptance still have not released the title to my car and they continue to have negative remarks on my credit reports preventing me from getting future loans and better rates or services.

On XX/XX/XXXX, My vehicle was remotely disabled automatically. I did not know until XXXX XXXX morning I was on my way to go to church. My car would not start. I want to file a complaint against Credit Acceptance corporation regarding this matter. I want to be compensated for the loss that I suffered regarding this matter. I was not able to go to church nor was I able to deposit my payroll into my bank account. In addition, I was not notified in advance by Credit Acceptance. Credit Acceptance did not notify me in writing, nor by telephone, nor in person of their actions. According to my knowledge, I set up automatic electronic payments for my car payments ever since XX/XX/XXXX. Why, they have not taken out the funds I do not know. Credit Acceptance made no contact to me regarding this matter. If there were an issue I was not informed by no one from Credit Acceptance. Also, on a daily basis Credit Acceptance Corporation is stalking me at work continuously. I want this stalking to stop immediately. It is very annoying and it is a criminal offense. Not only that, there is no need for Credit acceptance to stalk me at my place of employment. I want this stalking activity to cease immediately if not I 'm reporting it to the local Police authorities.

For six months we have been trying to rebuild my credit and have filed dispute upon dispute regarding the reporting of one of our credit lenders, Credit Acceptance , Inc for a vehicle loan for a XXXX XXXX XXXX. Time and again Credit Acceptance has reported inaccurate information to the Credit Reporting Bureaus. On XX/XX/XXXX we have paid the loan off, yet it is being told to us by the Bureaus that we still owe either {$2800.00} or up to {$8000.00} on the loan that is satisfied Each time that we file a dispute we are told to send in any documentation that we have showing that the information is inaccurate. Each time we have sent information to the credit bureaus and we have sent these disputes via certified mail and have proof of receipt. We have spent nearly {$150.00} over a six month period disputing these claims with no satisfaction. ! - the lender is reporting inaccurately 2 - the credit bureau is refusing to accept any requested documentation to overturn the lender inaccuracy 3 - the resulting issues are detrimental and damaging to my credit score and being reported inaccurately and falsely ADDITIONALLY, THE LOAN IS NOW SATISFIED AND IS PAID OFF, HOWEVER, YOUR COMPANY STILL CONTINUES TO REPORT INACCURACIES DETRIMENTAL TO MY CREDIT REPORT

I have FOUR problems 1. ) I purchased a XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, at XXXX XXXX. I was approved with XXXX down with XXXX XXXX. I found out later the XXXX went to an extended warranty, and Gap they told me I had to purchase instead of the purchase price of the car. 2. ) My car was repoed without notice on XX/XX/XXXX ; the next day, I paid the repo fee and the payment I was behind and picked up my car. The rep at credit acceptance told me to make the current payment, and I could defer the next one. I paid on XX/XX/XXXX. They called and said I paid the payment one day late, so my deferment was void ; they never sent me anything in the mail saying it was void. 3. ) My car was put in the shop on XX/XX/XXXX, at the same place I purchased it, for almost seven months, while I was still continuing to make my car payment. The warranty I paid for would never pay for it ; the car dealerships owner found out about it and paid to have the car fixed. The warranty is a scam ; I need to be refunded. 4. ) I informed Credit acceptance that I was a victim of fraud, someone filed a fake claim in my name for unemployment, my hours were cut due to COVID, and I got behind on two payments ; they reported it instantly on my credit when they said they would not.

My wife and I purchased a used vehicle and financed with Credit Acceptance Corporation. After 18 payments were made on the vehicle I lost my job and asked Credit Acceptance if I could let the vehicle go back to them because I could no longer afford the payment, and they agreed. The vehicle was returned to the creditor in XXXX and I recently received a court summons in XX/XX/XXXX. Amount financed for XXXX XXXX XXXX - {$21000.00} Includes an extended warranty from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Both parties elected to opt out of purchasing any and all extended warranties. These signatures show the exact same time as the signatures to follow on the bottom of page 2 on the retail contract. Time stamped electronic signatures would show a different time stamp for both signatures if this was in fact signed at the time of purchase. ( See Attached ) Extended Warranty price - {$1500.00} All parties agreed to a purchase price of {$21000.00}. 18 payments were made on the vehicle, totaling {$13000.00}, leaving a total balance of {$8800.00} plus interest charges. Market value of vehicle at time of auction was {$14000.00} - {$16000.00} Vehicle sold at auction for 50 % market value - {$7900.00} Total balance ( minus interest charges ) after auction = {$930.00}

On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, I purchased a XXXX XXXX XXXX for {$12000.00}. I was told that I had to put {$2000.00} down and then only pay a balance of {$10000.00}. I was never told that there would be interest. I was told the monthly payments would be {$330.00} per month. I signed many documents but I was not provided with a copy of any of the documents. I then received a payment booklet in the mail from Credit Acceptance XXXX and discovered that there were 60 monthly coupons for {$380.00} each ( {$22000.00} ). That totaled {$24000.00} ( coupons plus my {$2000.00} down payment ) for a XXXX year old vehicle with XXXX miles on it. The car has many mechanical problems. I have no idea what interest rate that I am being charged. I never agreed to pay back a total of {$22000.00}. I was never provided with a copy of the Bill of Sale or Retail Instalment Obligation. I am a XXXX XXXX earning {$950.00} net biweekly living in a rent stabilized apartment. I would have never qualified for such a loan if my true income was used. I believe the lender 's sales representative committed fraud on my application. I would have rather been denied the loan had I known I would have been saddled with interest, etc. I also learned that I financed an extended warranty as well.

In XXXX my husband and my daughter took his nieces information and used it to purchase a car. His niece reached out to me today and it is time the truth come out. She stated she has been disputing the charges. She is not liable for this account. Back in XXXX we all lived in a family house and I dont know what gave him the idea to take her information fraudulently and commit identity theft. He got my daughter involved. The dealer didnt pay close attention to the copy of drivers license and let them use it. This is a case of identity theft. My husband has sense passed away and I believe guilt from doing all of this has a lot to do with it. He diverted all the mail so that no mail would go to the house. He opened bank cards in their name, he forged letters and had money taken from their work checks. In XXXX my daughter wrote a letter to Credit Acceptance pretending as she always have to be the party at hand. She did not write a letter to Credit Acceptance. After my husband passed away my daughter surrendered the vehicle. The people this is affecting has nothing to do with this. My husband committed identity theft and opened this account fraudulently, he is no longer here to pay for his actions. I can no longer live with this on my conscience.

On XX/XX/2022 I called the company to inquire about the status of my complain sent via online portal; was not addressed. I was then told that my car was out for repossession. I explained why and how my payments have gotten behind. I did request as for the same with every conversation that I need to be able to make smaller payments or refinance the loan. I did also request a coupon book be sent 3 weeks prior to repossession and it was not honored. I implied that I would like to make a payment via 1099A process and they refused to accept it. I have acquired a lawyer because of the breach of peace when the vehicle was repossessed. There is also another account that I have paid off and has not been removed from credit report and is still reporting with no balance owed. I was advised to contact the dealership to speak with them about payments and how can i rescind my signature to void out the contract. I was advised that they did not have any information and would not help me with this. now my last major concern is that I was informed 3-4 hours prior that i can pay 1 monthly payment and it will remove the repossession. By the time they came to pick up the vehicle the amount to pay is no {$1500.00} ; which is double the payment plus interest.

I have had a vehicle financed by Credit Acceptance out of MI since XX/XX/XXXX year. Prior to signing the agreement I was informed they would install a device that disables the vehicle and avoids and repossessions. However, they have repossessed the vehicle 3x without every using the device. The have generated additional fees, created a higher payment amount and all this along with the increase stress and difficulty of getting to work, doctor, church, etc. They raised my monthly balance due ( from {$410.00} to {$460.00} ) and changed my due date ( from XX/XX/XXXX tof XX/XX/XXXX ). When I spoke to them last week and said I would be one week late, the said there's nothing they could do cause the account is 70 days late. IT IS NOT. I've been making timely payments. They increased my monthly amount due in order to avoid such a thing. Needless to say, that 5 days after I called them, they repossessed the vehicle for a 3rd time. This is unheard off and complete scam. The lied about the purpose of the device ( it's only used for tracking ), they lied about the increased amount which brought the account up to date. ( Mind you, the only reason I'm in this situation is because they continue to repossess the vehicle for only being 1 week late )

I also reach out to credit acceptance asking them to close and delete this negative information as well from my credit report. I received a miscall from the company that led me to call them back in hopes that I would speak to someone about this matter, I ended up leaving a voicemail that I did receive a call from them to please call me back and they never did. Credit acceptance made a statement to your company that they called once and never got in touch with me, that is a lie being that I called back and left a message with XXXX XXXX XX/XX/ as well as sending her an email back on on XXXX she never responded to the email either. I am asking that I get a fair response about this matter and have it permanently removed from my credit report being that they can not provide me with the information that was stated in the letter that I sent off. I am reporting both XXXX and Credit Acceptance for not following through a proper investigation.

Toward the end of 2019, I was in the Market for a new car. I was approved by Credit Acceptance for a loan that I was not initally interested in but they told me that it was the only loan and interest rate that I qualified for becasue I did not have much credit history. I needed a car and accepted the loan because I was under the impression that there were no other options or interest rates available for me. In trying to communicate with them about interest rates and the cost of the car they often told me there is no one I can talk to and eneded up repossing my car within a year. I did agree to the payments but I was unaware of all the fees and all of the interest that they would charge me and when trying to explain my hardship of XXXX and other issues that I faced during this time, they were unwilling to listen and work something out with me. This caused the price of the car to continue to rise because of the excessive interest rate. I feel taken advantage of and it is even difficult for them to send me the terms of the contract that was signed. I would like to file this complaint because I have paid {$11000.00} and they can not tell me what has went to principal and what has went to interest. I have requested the contract agreement.

For the past 6 months. Along with letters sent in XXXX of XXXX Credit Acceptance Corporation has been misreporting incorrect information; such as balances, payment dates, opening dates, comments and reporting misinformation on all 3 credit reports. This has caused my opportunity to obtain credit to be difficult. They have two bureaus reporting closed and one reporting still open plus 120 days late. This is a violation of the FCRA. Also, balances are incorrect from the paperwork Credit Acceptance has sent to me. They received GAP insurance money plus money from the sale of the vehicle. Credit Acceptance never granted me the resale paperwork or deficiency until after the vehicle was sold and they wanted to ask for the debt to be covered. Credit Acceptance also stated that the balance was XXXX, later changing it to around XXXX and reporting to bureaus the amount of XXXX. All faulty information. Please look at the incorrect information attached and have them remove their name and accounts off of my 3 consumer reports immediately. Ive asked them to DELETE several times and sent them the errors made. They take my proof and not fix the issue every time. Along with trying to cover their tracks. This violates FCRA code 623 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( c ).

The CREDIT ACCEPTANCE account reporting on my consumer report is incorrect and needs to be removed. Every alleged account is reporting inaccurately and erroneously, which is grounds for removal under the direct violation of 15 USC 1681 ( Reporting incorrectly ). Please have them COMPLETELY REMOVE THE ACCOUNT because I have given them plenty of time to conduct a full and complete investigation on this inaccurate and erroneous account. Please don't just have them do it by eoscar ; my life depends on my good credit. Every inaccurate account is unauthorized and needs to be removed ASAP. This debt collector and credit reporting agency engaged in abusive, deceptive, and unfair practices of the FDCPA, which it prohibits. They furnished this account that we didn't agree upon, and I didn't sign an agreement. A legal contract is signed by two parties, and I did not participate in any of it. Furthermore, they didn't follow the proper 5-step validation procedure, making this an unfair practice. According to the FDCPA, I'm entitled to {$1000.00} per violation, and clearly, they violated my rights. I will attach all documents to this complaint. Companies have failed to investigate this account which is a violation of the FCRA AND FDCPA LAWS.

Account # XXXX I had an accident in my car. The insurance didnt cover the accident since the person driving was not covered under my policy. Credit acceptance then called me and demanded a settlement amount to clear the remaining balance which is fair. Although they did not inform me that every month that the full settlement amount was not paid I would get a late payment remark on my credit report ( {$6000.00} ). Since I did not have all the money readily available I decided to call and ask for assistance. The representative told me not to worry about the late payment remarks on my credit that since Ive never been late in the past they would do a good will adjustment and remove those late payments once the balance was covered. After three months I was able to pay the whole balance and close the account. Since then I have been unsuccessful in getting those late payments removed from my credit score even after putting in a letter of goodwill adjustment. To this day my credit score has suffered and no one at credit acceptance has been able to help me fix this error even after I was told I would have no issue getting this removed. Can someone please help me rectify and remove these late payments. Before the settlement I was never late.

Good afternoon, I am writing because Credit Acceptance Corp has called me before XXXX XXXX on a Sunday morning to inquire about payment. I had previously instructed Credit Acceptance Corp to refrain from calling and they decided to do it anyway at XXXX XXXX approximately this Sunday morning. I informed Credit Acceptance Corp to contact me in writing and not my cell phone in the past. I reminded the woman today and she said she was going to keep calling and calling she did. After blocking out her number, she called from yet a different number. This is harassment and today is Sunday and they are calling outside of business hours. Based on my understanding of the telephone/bill collection rules, the company could be fined {$1000.00} each time for willfully violating collection laws via telephone. She called me from the following phone numbers : XXXX at XXXX XXXX CST and at XXXX XXXX CST. She called me from XXXX at XXXX XXXX and called me at XXXX at XXXX XXXX and at XXXX XXXX. I paid my XXXX bill one week in advance and I understand that the bill is due on the XXXX of the month and haven't paid it yet, however, that does not give them an excuse to call outside of business hours and call when I've requested everything in writing.

I cosigned an auto loan for my significant other. During the outbreak of COVID-19, he then became unemployed and was unable to make his payments. We contacted Credit Acceptance and they agreed to defer payments. Then the car was in a total loss accident and our insurance company paid off a large amount. Believing our XXXX Insurance would cover the rest and the fact that payments were being deferred, we believed that the vehicle would no longer need to have payments. However, payments were reported late on our credit files and a comment stating " affected by natural disaster '' was added. Filing a dispute with the credit bureaus did not solve the issue of late payments being reported during COVID or the fact that we were not made aware of payments still needing to be made after the accident. We did not receive notification until a letter to settle the due balance was mailed. The late payments reflected on our credit files are inaccurate and unfair due to the fact that we contacted Credit Acceptance, they show that they acknowledged our request but did not enforce it and due to the fact that we filed a claim with our insurance company and had XXXX Insurance so we were expecting not to be burdened with paying on a destroyed vehicle.

About XXXX later I was watching the news and seen my car amongst other ghost cars that was hidden and took by XXXX XXXX I called XXXX told them everything and was told my car not there. Immediately I called the finance company and I told them and they told me I still have to pay.I believe they recovered the car and still trying to make me overpay for their car I barely had. I asked to gps the vehicle they told me they took it off a year before I brought it. They were no help and rude. Lastly my car was repossessed before and I found it there when they lied and said it wasnt.

I purchased a 2009 XXXX XXXX with my son. He was arrested and the vehicle was seized. I worked with the states attorney and credit acceptance to get the car back and obtained approval from credit acceptance to reduce the payments from {$460.00} to {$300.00} which I have been paying monthly and sometimes twice per month. I recently was made aware that the car was out for repossession before it was seized because my son did not make his payments but once it was seized the repossession stopped. Credit acceptance is stating that the payments are being reported as 120 days late each month because of the prior repo order. I am being told there is nothing they can do even when I am current on my payments because the car was up for repossession at one point which made the entire loan due. I was never told this when I renegotiated the payment amount and this is effecting my credit score drastically. I have tried to call a manager but no one has returned my calls and the representatives are rude when speaking to me. My payment history proves my on time payments and the letter I received when lowering my payments never speaks about The entire loan being due. Please look into this matter as I believe this is an illegal and unfair practice.

I got an alert from XXXX XXXX today that my credit score had dropped 109 points because XXXX XXXX had reported that I was 30 days late with a payment and owed {$630.00}. They have been reporting every month that I was on time and now this. I have been paying in this loan since XXXX and the only time I had a problem was in XXXX. My car was repossed, but I paid to get it back and have been on time since then. They only paid {$170.00} to have my car picked up and I paid them over {$500.00} to get it back, plus they were trying to collect another {$950.00} from me. Now they are claiming that in XXXX of XXXX my payment was returned and it wasn't replaced. That isn't true plus I asked them why they are waiting 27 months to report a problem. I asked them why they had not contacted me about this. I was told " we don't have to ''. I am sick of this company 's harassment and attitude. I only have XXXX payments, out of XXXX, left and they are trying to cause problems for me. I live in Social Security and can't pay more than my payment amount, pkus, they are doing this during the XXXX pandemic. They have to be stopped. I am trying desperately to keep this car, between, taxes, insurance and my payment it takes a lot of my available money.

My initial complaint through CFPB about Credit Acceptance was submitted on XX/XX/XXXX ( XXXX ). My complaint is related to Credit Acceptance failure to notify the co-signer as well as myself of intent to sell a repossessed vehicle. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a phone call from XXXX XXXX. XXXX was unprofessional during the phone call, as it seemed as if he was trying to coerce me into saying that I received notification of intent to sell. Credit Acceptance responded to my initial complaint by providing documents that were supposedly sent to the co-signer as well as myself. The problem that I have with the alleged proof a notification sent before selling the vehicle is that the co-signer denies receiving notification as implied in the response by Credit Acceptance. The co-signer has resided at her residence for over 10 years. Therefore, its not possible that she didnt receive notification due to relocation. Hypothetically speaking, if its a possibility that I didnt receive my notification because of an issue related to the postal service, how can it be possible that two individuals with separate addresses not receive mail coming from the same company. I strongly feel that the documents provided by Credit Acceptance are falsified.

( CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORP NJ COMPLAINT ) Credit acceptance Corp, inside of XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, New Jersey, is the financer for vehicle said in statement. They had me at about 23 % interest rate with a {$390.00} payment for a XXXX XXXXXXXXXXXX XXXX with XXXX miles on it. Early last year I purchased a vehicle from XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, New Jersey, from the beginning the car had issues. It would shake violently, mind you this is right off of the lot, I had to bring it back to the dealership to get fixed. It took them about 34 days to fix my new vehicle, and I was out of my new vehicle for 34 days. After everything was fixed my vehicle drove okay besides a TPMS code going off. I was driving my vehicle about 2 weeks ago and my transmission went out of nowhere without any sort of noises, feelings, or just general malfunctions. I understand that credit acceptance Corp is already in a lawsuit with your organization and the state of New York, I wanted to let you know that this is also happening in New Jersey. They are financing lemons to people that are desperate for cars, hiking up their interest rate, and taking advantage of them. Thank you for reading this and taking the time out of your day, I hope to hear from you soon.

I made a payment arrangement with my loan company. There was a tow truck driver sent to repo the vehicle after that was done. I made the arranged payment and gave him the conformation. He said ok pulled his truck away from my vehicle and allowed my husband to proceed to leave with the vehicle. He then stayed in my driveway and when I went out to check he yelled that my payment was no good. When I tried to show him the confirmation he put his hand in my face and said " I am done with you '' he then ran to his truck while yelling " I am having your husband arrested for grand theft auto ''. He proceeded to contact the XXXX County Sheriff 's Department. While he walked got in his truck I contacted the finance company to confirm the payment was received. The Sheriff 's Deputy arrived and advised me that the driver had called to report that my husband endangered him by " driving the vehicle off the forks of his truck '' and claimed that there was a domestic disturbance occurring. All of which was false. After explaining the situation to the officer with the loan company, Credit Acceptance, on the phone. I was advised that they could not force me to surrender my vehicle without a court order and the driver was removed from the area.

Please reference case XXXX and credit Acceptance account XXXX. Bi received a letter from Credi Acceptance legal aid XXXX XXXX. As a result we were placed in a do not call list with Credit Acceptance. But they denied any other wrong doing which is expected from such people. The issue at hand is my wife has called two days in a row trying to make the payments and the representatives proceeded to verbally harass and abuse my wife. She started calling 3 days after the due date to make this payment and the recording we have on hand prove the abuse and just downright ugliness we have to endure when calling. Todays date XX/XX/2018 she calls again to make the payment and she gets off the phone in tears from the verbal assault. This is the absolute last time I report this information. Next time I am suing Credit Acceptance because we have the recording now of their abuse Ive nature to people who actually pay. I got on the phone today with a manager named XXXX and she was extremely apologetic. I made the payment and foretold her of the actions getting ready to be against credit Acceptance. They have been sued so many times due to their actions and this time those cases will be referenced and show a history of abussive communications.

I have a truck loan through credit acceptance. I got my loan XXXX of XXXX I pay {$850.00} a month. I have currently paid over {$11000.00} in the past 14 months. My initial loan was {$33000.00} with putting {$5000.00} cash and my trade in for {$1000.00}. My total now is {$30000.00} after paying the monthly payment for over 14 months. When I look at my transaction history I have variable interest charges. For example one month was {$900.00} another month was {$120.00}. My contract says 22 % on the truck loan. Another example is I made a monthly payment of {$850.00} at the time my total was {$30000.00} after I made the payment my new total was {$30000.00}. I have asked for a copy of my contract and have not been contacted yet. I have documents showing these variable charges. Also, I believe the company that sold me the truck had incentives from this company. They were aware of my credit score and had a certain amount of trucks for me to pick from they let me test drive the truck I bought but then told me it was a mistake after I told them I wanted it. They wanted more money than was initially discussed. I feel like I was dooped into buying a truck they knew I would never be able to pay off as long as they got their incentive.

I was reached out to buy XXXX XXXX by telephone and email whom I did speak with and I think we resolved the credit reporting issue however now they have locked me out of my account and I can no longer see the loan status, payment status, early pay off amount or anything pertinent to my loan on there Website.

I was told by XXXX XXXX the Compliance Analyst that if I wanted to see my account information online again that I would need to cancel my initial complaint with the CFPB about there credit reporting tactics. What this company is doing is unlawful and I am protected as a consumer from these tactics so this is an easy problem to fix however I feel it is escalating and it does not need to when the loan is XXXX dollars away from being paid off.

As the consumer, I hereby dispute the accuracy and completeness of the contested information. I categorically refuse payment for the accounts associated with CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORP, specifically account # XXXX. My primary concern lies not in validation and verification but in the existence of inaccurate data within my consumer report. Pursuant to UCC Article 9, the lender is obligated to furnish certain notices pertaining to the repossession and disposition of the collateral. Non-compliance with these notice requirements may have implications on the legal validity of the repossession. Notably, I have not received any deficiency notices. I wish to assert my right to challenge misinformation, substantiated by evidence exposing questionable practices. These practices range from the use of inappropriate language intended to harass, oppress, or abuse ( contravening 15 U.S.C. 1692d ( 2 ) ) to engaging in deceptive debt collection tactics ( violating 15 U.S.C. 1692e ( 10 ) ). Failure to address this matter within the next 20 days will compel me to escalate the issue to the United States District Court. While I prefer an amicable resolution, the urgency of the situation necessitates swift attention to avert legal proceedings.

The total cost was { {$34000.00} }, when I contacted the dealer to cancel the optional charges, they told me they can't do anything about it, and my only choice was to pay the loan on time for one year and then refinance it

I have been dealing with this issue since XXXX of 2020 when I paid off my car. I spoke with XXXX at CAC yesterday as well as a few weeks ago and she advised me that CAC reports MONTHLY to all of the credit burreaus. I called XXXX ( I pay for the service, it's not through a third party like XXXX XXXX ) and it shows that they have not updated my credit file since XXXX of 2020. I've contacted them severly times regarding this, asking for clarification on why it wasn't reported, ask to speak to a supervisor to which I'm sent to collections even though my account is paid and full and closed and I get told there is no credit reporting department contact number, no headquarters number and I just have to wait. I have submitted TWO inaccurate credit report documents from CAC 's website. Both of which are " lost '' and they just sent me out another one. I then filed a dispute directly with XXXX containing the Paid in Full, lien electronically released letter from CAC and XXXX went to CAC to confirm the information and CAC told them that I was past due XXXX and 90-120 days late on payments which is inaccurate. I want this addressed ASAP and I would like CAC to be fined for FCRA violations and my credit filed updated ASAP.

The account was paid in full last year XX/XX/XXXX and the company representative stated I owe $ XXXX.So I asked why she indicating I owe that amount, she stated it was the copay from my insurance company. So I called XXXX ( my insurance ) to send me the proof of the check and my amount of {$250.00} was included since it was filed on uninsurance motorist because the driver left the scene and the car was totaled out that's why my deductible was only {$250.00} and it was included with the payment. So I had to sign my car over to XXXX so the company could be paid. So XXXX now owns the car However afterward when I reach out to the company they indicated that I owe {$240.00} ( XX/XX/XXXX ). Then just two monthsXXXX ago I was told to pay {$100.00}. This is fraud by indicating I'm behind on a car that was paid off a year ago and I also file with OCCC because they are making false and fraudulent claims on all three of my credit reports and I have submitted documents. The inquiry was removed then later it was put back on all three of my credit reports ( late payments ) This is an unfair allegation. This is a predatory lending company ( This company is fraud and adding usurious interest to a car loan that's been paid in full!!!!!

I have an auto loan with Credit Acceptance Corporation. With XXXX being especially hard, I have reached out to the company on numerous occasion explaining that I had been furloughed and that I needed to either 1. change the due date on my account, 2. lower my payments, ( even if temporarily ) or 3. refinance. I told them that I was still working but my pay was extremely limited. Repeatedly I was told that I could not do any of the above and that my only option was to double up on payments. At the end of XXXX, they put the car in collection/repossession status and told me that they would collect any day. Being that I wanted to avoid this, I asked if I could sell the vehicle and settle the account. I was told no. If I were to sell the vehicle, I would have to pay the buyout with was {$19000.00} for a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX with XXXX. Obviously this is already a bad credit loan. And they insist they are trying to help people like me. But it seems they are extorting people like me. Nothing about this whole situation has been helpful. It is a decision that I have lived to regret and I wish there were more options for people like me to get themselves back on track. Companies like this dont help. They make the situation worse.

I took out a loan with Credit Acceptance XX/XX/XXXX. In XX/XX/XXXX I was in a car accident with my car. The vehicle was towed to a local auto yard. My insurance had lapsed, so the repairs were not covered. I contacted Credit Acceptance and explained the situation and turned the vehicle over to them, as I had no way to repair. This should have been a repossession in XXXX. The last payment made on this vehicle was XX/XX/XXXX. My loan was paid as agreed until I had my accident. Credit Acceptance is continuing to report this account, more than three years after I released the car back as an open account that is XXXX days late. This inaccurate reporting is intended to do maximum damage to my credit, and more than three years later is hindering me from being able to obtain an auto loan from a reputable lender because of my " open past due car loan ''. I have tried numerous times to have this corrected and have not been able to get any response. I understand that this account will report negatively, that is my responsibility, but the reporting is inaccurate and this reporting is doing damage to me and my family. I have been unable to secure reliable transportation for my children with this inaccurate credit reporting.

I contacted the lender and asked for the car to be picked up, voluntary repossession. XXXX of XXXX. I received letter from XXXX XXXX, that the taurus in question had been sold at auction, within two months of the repossession. Credit Acceptance is the lender and they have reported XXXX plus, owed, to this date. the car was purchased for XXXX and sold at auction for more than XXXX. Credit Acceptance has the same letter from the auction house, that was sent to XXXX XXXX and Myself. at this moment, more than the purchase price is and had been reported to all agencies. Being in the state of Texas, once the vehicle is sold, i am responsible for the remaining amount, not the full amount. I have explained this several times to said agency, XXXX. this co. will not adhere to the law. please help me resolve this matter. the loan is 6 years and 11 months out from inception, and I am being charged every month about {$100.00} dollars, which is keeping my credit scores low, despite the fact that i have no late pays. thank you, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

In XX/XX/XXXX I voluntarily returned my car to my creditor. I was sent a notice from the redemption department on XXXX XXXX to see if we could work out terms for me to get my car back, we could not come to terms on this matter. I never received any information on when or where my car would be sold or that it would be sold. Then on XXXX XXXX I received a letter of Disposition of Repossessed Vehicle. The letter stated that the car had been sold and that there was a deficiency of XXXX. In there calculations the started with a balance owing of {$9200.00}, and that they sold the car for {$2600.00}, leaving my obligation at {$6500.00}. My dispute is this, on XXXX XXXX I also received a letter from the company that I bought the car from stating that my balance owing was {$5500.00}, and by my calculations when I turned my car in I was at roughly the same amount. If I only owed {$5500.00} on my car if I were to pay it off directly then how can I possible owe {$9200.00} when I turned it in. There seems to be something legally wrong with the way they are calculating amount owed. Does interest on the loan not stop the day I return the car or the day they sell it. How can they have me owing almost {$5000.00} more than the payoff.

I have had difficulty with this company from the moment I found out there was a loan taken out in my name. Someone had tried to purchase a vehicle in my name several years ago. To date, I still have not been able to remove this from my credit report. I contacted Credit Acceptance and submitted their fraud departments paperwork 2x. The first time they lost my paperwork. So, I had to wait for them to send me another packet. Credit Acceptance has done nothing to try to resolve this situation. However, when I try to contact the company they just insist that I have to pay this bill of approximately {$19000.00} for a car that was taken out in my name which was fraudulent. I do not owe this bill. I made a report with the XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX police at that time. I want it and all reports made by them to be completely removed from my credit report. Now, it is difficult for me to get any kind of loan for a house or car or anything else. The lack of this companys ability to communicate effectively and resolve this issue is completely unprofessional. This is especially so in my case because there is zero proof, zero signatures, or anything of the sort that would connect me to the purchase of a vehicle using Credit Acceptance.

There is nothing on the contract about a cooling-off period, pursuant to 15 USC 1605 . The insurance was not included pursuant to 15 USC 1605.

I later received a call from Credit Acceptance legal department asking me to call them which I returned the call and was told me " letter ' was received and they were reviewing it. At this point in all of this, I have been abuse, discriminated against, lied on and also taken advantage of by Credit Acceptance Corporation.

I have requested that the debt be validated and investigated with Credit Acceptance Corporation. Which was never done. I am trying to by a house and they are reporting a debt that does not belong to me. Its saying that the debt was charged off but i never recieved a 1099-C Cancelation of debt because its not mine. I demand under FCRA : Section 604 : Permissible Purpose My written authorization ( i would like it mailed to me please ) Proof that I personally initiated this inquiry to acquire such card show me last purchases Either provide me strict proof or DELETE the item immediately. If you do not delete the charge off in 15 days I will take legal action. Under 15 USC Section 623 you have 30 days to do a reasonable inquiry into this matter. If you ignore this letter and do not delete the charge off or dont provide STRICT proof of authorization I will have no other choice but to have my local Congressman promptly forward a formal complaint to the Federal Trade Commission and Attorney General for further scrutiny of this matter. Your cooperation in advance is appreciated. This is my last letter then I will promptly seek litigation. My attorneys are pending your reasonable response Thank you XXXX XXXX

I XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX has received a retail installment contract- consumer credit document in the mail from Credit Acceptance . Upon looking at this document i notice several violations against me the Consumer one in particular is US code 15 USC 1605 it appears that the apr for my state North carolina the max is set 8 % and should not go over 16 percent. I didnt agree to the charges and neither were they disclosed me prior to agreeing to this document. As another violation i came across is US code 15 USC 1635 the right to recision. I was never made aware that i could rescind this contract in 3 days. Its stated no where in the contract. Also there is US code 15 USC 1640. Due to the constant calls numerous times a week from different numbers from michigan and private phone calls that also cause problems in my life you have also violated US code 15 1692k.I know that with all violations listed that I am entitled to a refund of all moneys paid to the debtor Credit Acceptance. Including the cash down payment on this credit transaction that i use my social security number to purchase. Also I am asking that this be removed from all consumer reports, as well as the title to the real property and lien be removed.

Happy new year, I am writing to inform you about the unfortunate passing of the primary borrower, [ XXXX XXXX ], who held an auto loan with your institution. I co-signed the loan with [ him/her ] and have been diligently attempting to maintain the payments since her passing in XXXX.

I am reaching out to request your understanding and cooperation in managing the collection process for the outstanding balance. Given the circumstances, I would appreciate any assistance or guidance you can provide to navigate this matter.

I kindly request your consideration and would appreciate any information or documentation required to facilitate the deputation of collection in light of these unfortunate events. Please feel free to contact me at [ XXXX ] to discuss this matter further. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. Sinc

The company is violating my privacy by reporting late payments to the credit bureaus. In XXXX I submitted a complaint to the company about the vehicle, I have drove this vehicle a handful of times. The transmission went 3 times and then the engine. I no longer have their vehicle as it was junked. I never signed MY SIGNATURE on any documents! I have tried to contact the company several times to remove any late payments and lower the amount but instead the only care about adding on fees and charging more money on to the loan. A car that was worth XXXX is now up to XXXX. During XXXX the CARES ACT was provided no company was to report or add on to bills and this company was still adding on late fees and reporting late payments to the credit bureaus when I was not even working and sick. Ive tried to come to SEVERAL AGREEMENTS with the company and so they care about is the vehicle! Im ready to take legal action now because now this has been over 6 years and still adding interest and I have been trying to make payments and yet they do NOTHING to work with people!!!!! I will no longer pay and I will have my attorney fix it unless they are willing to send in to the credit bureaus a letter to fix late payments!!!

I traded in my vehicle on XX/XX/2020 and immediately Credit Acceptance Corporation was notified and XXXX XXXX XXXX took possession. There is some obligation between Credit Acceptance and XXXX that is operating outside of my deal to trade and the vehicle is still not paid off. The dealership states that Credit Acceptance owes them {$60000.00} so they refuse to send in a check to pay off the vehicle. Credit Acceptance states that dealer services is handling it ... they are not doing collection calls YET they reported me late to the credit bureaus dropping my score 109 points. The dealership also listed the vehicle within days so whatever issues they have with each other ... I am the one being negatively impacted. In addition I am owed a refund for a warranty service plan that Credit Acceptance mandates because I cancelled immediately on XX/XX/XXXX when they opened. I have a contract showing that this vehicle was traded in. Trust me if Credit Acceptance even thought I had this vehicle they would have shown up to repossess it. XXXX XXXX XXXX is culpable also. Two companies that I hope to NEVER do business with again. Unethical, predatory and disingenuous is just a few words that describe these companies.

I purchased a XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX of XXXX. I was ecstatic that I was able to get a car loan by myself considering my credit was not the greatest at that time. I did not have a trade in as I still had negative equity that would roll over to another loan. My paperwork stated that I was only going to be paying around $ XXXX for this vehicle, but after I finally got my account set up it states over $ XXXX!!! Ive tried multiple times to lower my car payment, considering anytime I made a payment it didnt seem to make a dent in my loan. Why in the world is a car almost double the price on a loan? I tried multiple times to reach out to them to inquire about a decrease in a loan payment after I lost my job and was trying to work out a payment arrangement so I could keep my vehicle and they ended up repossessing it. Im going to have to end of claiming bankruptcy at XXXX because they were shady in the contract. The dealership also didnt help as my car salesman literally quit two days after he sold me the car. A XXXX interest rate is insane. My finance charge was {$19000.00} and amount financed was {$24000.00} and after its paid off is over $ XXXX? The math aint mathing and I felt I was taken advantage of.

Payments on my five year loan are not documented correctly. The five year loan began in XX/XX/XXXX and would end in XX/XX/XXXX. I missed three payments that I was told I could make up at the end of the loan period extending the loan three months which ended XX/XX/XXXX. The three payments were missed in XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX. Credit Acceptance Corporation shows on our credit report that we made 25 % of our payments late, Instead of showing three missed payments respectively. We never made 25 % of our payments late. For every month in XX/XX/XXXX it shows that we are 30-90 says late including the three extended months. Credit Acceptance sent me a document showing all months that payments were made on time. In addition, the document shows that the last three extended payments were made on time. Never on the credit report does it state three payments were missed and made up at the end of the loan period. The credit report states inaccurately that we made 25 % of our payments late, which would be after the XXXX of every month. Attached is the payment record from Credit Acceptance showing the dates of each payment. Credit Acceptance says XXXX are responsible for the errors. Thank you.

My complaint is with Credit Acceptance. First the have they are claiming I owe {$100.00} dollars which is incorrect. If my payments are XXXX a month and Credit Acceptance acknowledged theey received my hardship payment arrangement letter and agreed to give me 4 monthly payments of {$200.00} on a recorded line, why are they acting as if this is just a payment I 'm making on my own. And with the agreed upon arrangement the past due balance remaining balance for 4mths would be XXXX and the representative on the phone advance the balance go on the back of the loan. So the are adding illegal collection tactics and also have been calling harassing me everyday twice or more a day after they know my account is auto draft. I have spoken to a representative every time they call to advice in on auto draft and they still try to collect a payment and continue to call when I already spoke to someone which is illegal. Their phone records like my phone records will support this. Last all XXXX of my credit reports are showing different past due dates, when the account is not past due, I 'm on auto draft and Credit Acceptance agreed to the hardship arrangement and said the remainder will go on back of loan.

On XX/XX/2022, I made a XXXX report because this company has fraudulently doctored account ledgers, added more payments to my account that I dont owe and have been falsely placing things on my credit. They told the XXXX I missed a payment for XXXX but the last 3 reps Ive spoken to in the last 2 weeks minus tosay, have all said I missed XXXX & now theyve stuck to XXXX anytime I did speak to someone about this issue. They provided the XXXX with a payment ledger they only provided me after weeks of asking and what they have does NOT match my bank statements from when Ive made the payment. The XXXX got the proof of payments Ive sent and when I tried to fight it, they said I didnt have a claim. Ive reported credit Acceptance to the 3 bureausXXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX and all 3 bureaus REFUSE to validate the account and say that its accurate even with me proving proof that its not. I have been unfairly harassed by the people in this company and they have been falsely putting late payments on my credit. Theyve called me 6 times today & its only XXXX as of XX/XX/2022. I want this harassment to STOP immediately. I want NO contact with this company. They are CONSTANTLY calling me from different numbers

I got a XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX I signed up for automatic payments weekly. I never missed a payment and they started reporting the payment late and their excuse was it's late from when it actually goes to them not when it's debited out of my account. Also their interest is ridiculous which is not in my contract they have daily interest chargers and it can be whatever they want it be what I was told by one of the customer service. I the lease was for {$17000.00} I paid over {$12000.00} in two years they said I still owe {$14000.00} my insurance company paid {$10000.00} when the vehicle was totaled out in XX/XX/XXXX they have been reporting every month on my credit report missed monthly payments. I don't owe them paid more than enough they are rude when I call told me good luck on getting it deleted from my credit report. Now they are saying I still owe them {$4000.00} or settle for {$600.00} and the person who is responsible for reporting credit can't be contacted by phone only by email that they can't provide me. The company is credit acceptance I joined a class action lawsuit against them for doing the same to others yet they are still posting inaccurate information on my credit report.

Back in XXXX, i had all of my information stollen from car. On XXXX, I needed to get a mortgage, but i was denied due to the fact that there was an account on my credit report that was in derogatory status. To my surprise, I purchase my 3 credit bureau and i noticed there was an account that i never authorized. I tried disputing this account several times by sending them my police report ( about 7yrs ago ). And had asked several times to send me proof - they never sent me proof. XXXX have been trying to dispute this account since - without any result!! This year, again, I tried to get a mortgage. this account is affecting my eligibility. I spoke to a manager, the manager asked me, once again, to send proof of my identity theft report or a police report ; ( 5 ) copies of my signature ; copy of diver 's license and social security. I sent them all the information needed along with a dispute letter stating to send me information explaining their findings and actions ( that was was on XX/XX/XXXX ) It literally took then half a day to conclude their investigation. They sent me a voicemail without my phone ringing telling me that they did not have enough information regarding this account.

I filed for bankruptcy in XX/XX/XXXX, I had made a payment to Credit Acceptance and once I had filed they started to refuse my payments. I had understood they were to obe paid outside of the bankruptcy and made every attempt to pay them. I had even told my attorney of what they wee doing. They told me to keep trying to make the payment and they would handle it. I was them made to pay them current from the time I filed and yet they still refused my payment I continued to let my attorney know. I then made a large payment of {$1800.00}, that is when they took that payment, then again they refused payment. Then XX/XX/XXXX I get a notice from the credit bureau stating the account had been closed. I then made another large payment of {$800.00}. and yes they took it and asked why my account was reporting closed. I was told that they did not know why it was closed but I can still make payment. Every month since XX/XX/XXXX I have tried to make payments and they either hang up on me or not take the money out of the account in which I choose to have the money taking out of each month. Then today they came and repossessed the car and I showed the man picking up the car and he told me to make a report.

I am not saying they reporting right or wrong I am saying that I am not XXXX percent sure if they are. I also read something called the fair credit reporting act were it said I have the right to challenge anything I am not sure is accurate.

So could you please check on this and get back to me? I saw on a credit site and board where this lawyer said you have 30 days to complete this investigation please investigate the following account and remove them if anything is missing or not correct on them. In accordance with the fair credit reporting act in accordance with the fair credit XXXX XXXX has violated my rights 15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A states I have the right to privacy 15 U.S.C 1681 section 604 A section 2 it also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish a account without my written instructions.

Re : XXXX, credit acceptance ... ..XXXX, cfpb ; all reference appears to be in the co-signers name, XXXX XXXX instead of the " car owner 's '' name..reidun creamer, my daughter . quite clear is the premise of XXXX 's credit report, and quite clear is the company 's reporting to the credit bureaus ... .however, since CAC ( credit acceptance corporation ) is a high risk consumer acceptance company with 21 % or higher interest rate in Colorado to XXXX, with XXXX as co-signer ; and since duplication of any notices to either parties sent, minus any telephonic inquiries to either party wondering or stating that possibly an error in account numbers may exist and why would reidun buy this car with {$1600.00} down and make no payments whatsoever causing a repossession. If CAC would find presence and premise to show relief from reporting this account as a repossession on XXXX 's account, he can go forward with a VA home purchase. if the negative reporting remains, then both XXXX and XXXX may have no recourse but both filing Chapter XXXX bankruptcy, not using the CAC account as credit going forward. We do believe errors on both side exist, and possibly a solution can be seen to rectify and reward.

When the contract with the company was started the agreed upon payment date was the XXXX of every month starting in XXXX. I was having trouble managing the payment date so I set up a payment arrangement to split the payments into two transactions with the promised dates of the XXXX and XXXX of each month until canceled on my end for half of the paying around XXXX XXXX and XXXX dollars. The month of XXXX the money came out of the account on those days and everything was fine. I check my account due to the fact I will be having an up coming payment and notice I am charge a XXXX dollar late fee on the XXXX of last month, XXXX. I checked all of my transactions and the money came out on the XXXX around the same time XXXX just as promised. Yet my account is saying a passed due late fee of XXXX dollars was giving to me on the XXXX of XXXX. I have never missed or been late on a payment since I started with the company and Im not understanding why this charge has been given to me. Ive tried calling and the office is always closed by the time Im out of work or on weekends even tho it says it is open. I want this fee gone immediately and not reported on my credit nor do I want this problem again.

Credit acceptance has been reporting an account from the past as a current account. They are increasing my balance to this date every month for a vehicle I no longer have. The vehicle is at XXXX XXXX in XXXX PA XXXX. There is the phone number to validate this. The shop owner told me I can't have the vehicle because it belongs to credit acceptance. But credit acceptance is not releasing the vehicle to me!! This has been going on for years.. so here I am stuck with no vehicle. That I keep being charged for. This is illegal. If I am being charged I should have the truck!! But I can't get the truck. So which is it here. Give me the truck back if I still have an open account. They can't do both!! This is fraud. They have been found guilty years ago if fraudulent charges. Please help me here. I am also putting a picture of my report to show you my balance is being increased monthly for a vehicle that I don't have anymore that credit acceptance says I have. just call the shop yourself. They will verify all I have said in this letter. These people are crooks. This account should either be closed an placed as a charge off for a repossession or the vehicle should be returned to me immediately.

I purchased this vehicle back in XXXX of 2019 at a dealership were I was promised that I would get a great deal. They charged me a finance charge of XXXX and a down payment of XXXX with payments coming out to XXXX a month. In addition they charged an annual interest rate of XXXX XXXX which after checking in the state of California was way over the normal XXXX XXXX percent. Looking back, this was a loan way over normal what other lenders charge. They took advantage of my situation, I needed a car an this was presented to me as an option. Now looking back, I'm paying in total of XXXX over the course for a car that was only work XXXX which I ended paying XXXX before interest. After doing some research they have violated the usury laws in California and I'm asking the CFPB to help me resolve this issue. I'm consistently getting calls non stop everyday on payments that I'm behind. I've gotten threats on having my credit destroyed and car repossessed. I'm behind payments, I've asked them in the past to lower my payments or adding payments in the back of the loan but to no progress. I'm credit is ruined due to them reporting late payments, I can't refinance out of this predatory lending.

I finance a car through Credit Acceptance in XXXX and during the month I found that they was charging me over XXXX XXXX XXXX interest rate, then by XX/XX/XXXX XXXX voluntary return the car because of divorce reason. Then during the same year Credit Acceptance sold the car to another car dealer for more than the value of the loan principal value paying off my debt. Later during XXXX I saw in my credit report that Credit Acceptance open the account and add a balance of {$11000.00}, immediately I call them and they offer me if I accept and agree paid them {$3000.00} in XXXX days, they will remote that information from my credit and I decline the offer. I never receive any letters or phone call from them, I called a few time requesting the information about how they calculate those charges and they hang up the call. During that moment and continue as today, Credit Acceptance are reporting on my credit that this loan is close but at the end of the month they report the account open it, increase the balance and later they report to close it. In the attachment you will see the evidence how Credit Acceptance are reporting false information, what cost me me a lot of financial problem.

I was very embarrassed and humiliated getting my Credit pulled by other resources. I also was violated according to Act 15 USC-1681 A section 604 A section 2 which also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instructions. I wasn't aware of any Discrepancies with Credit Acceptance with other Borrowers throughout the nation.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I opened an auto loan with Credit Acceptance. I agreed to pay this loan through automatic withdrawal with my bank XXXX XXXX Checking Acct ending in # XXXX for the amount of {$410.00} that was always consistently deducted on the XXXX of each without any issues or problems until I called this company on XXXX XXXX to inquire about why my account was showing up as past due on my billing statement and in all 3 Credit Bureaus. This company confirmed that I was enrolled in the " automatic deduction program '' from my bank and informed me that it was a mistake/oversight on their part. The company updated my credit report in XX/XX/XXXX with confirming that auto loan was being paid on time and in good standing but they never went back in my credit report to delete the following inaccurate information that started back in XX/XX/XXXX : My credit report showed 30days past due during XX/XX/XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX ; 90days past due in XX/XX/XXXX ; XXXX past due during XX/XX/XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX ; XXXX past due in XX/XX/XXXX and 30days past due in XX/XX/XXXX.

On several occasions, I have disputed this information on my credit report to be corrected. I took out a loan on a car with Credit Acceptance in XXXX, this account was purchased by my credit union and the car was then paid off fully. In XXXX, I was approved for another loan with Credit Acceptance and the XXXX was XXXX or so total owing when I called them to have them pick the XXXX up because I could no longer pay for it. They never updated their records after picking it up and selling it at auction, instead, my account balance goes from XXXX to XXXX after I disputed the amount owing. This is fraudulent for this company to out of the blue add an additional balance onto a balance they were already supposed to correct due to the resale of the XXXX. The balance should have gone down from XXXX from what it sold for but never did instead just noticed today when checking my credit report that now it is XXXX. I would like to have this investigated because I know a creditor can not arbitrarily add such fees to a balance that was already supposed to be corrected after the sale of this truck at auction which is what I was informed of by them after they picked it up back in XXXX.

Purchased a used vehicle and financed through Credit Acceptance. In 2016 the vehicle was flooded in Hurricane Harvey. The vehicle was towed out of the water after sitting in the water a whole day. It was sent to XXXX XXXX XXXX for inspection. They pulled the wet carpet out the vehicle and broke it down for inspection. It took my insurance company 6 months to finally get to the car and they denied it stating that there was no sign of water in the car. Well if a car sits out 6 months I'm sure that is plenty of time for it to dry. From all the water lines and mold in the vehicle there was no way I was letting it go. I filed an appeal and that took months. When we went finally to chexk on the car it was gone and XXXX XXXX XXXX could not explain nor could Credit Acceptance tell me where the car was. I have tried to resolve this matter and they have yet to respond or communicate anything concerning the vehicle. I don't know if it has been sold, crushed, sent to auction or just plain destroyed. Statue of limitations and far exceeded their ability to collect and they still have this on my credit when they know the car was flooded and I have not seen it since it was picked up.

I settled an account in full with Credit Acceptance Corp on XX/XX/2018 for the amount of {$5100.00}. Credit acceptance still reports a balance of XXXX, as well as a late payment when it should be reported as XXXX balance. I have brought this information to credit acceptance on XX/XX/18 and XX/XX/18 and they will not correct it. I have recordings of making the payment stating that it is payment for settlement in FULL, as well as supporting documents. When I brought the issue to XXXX they called credit acceptance, and took the information provided from credit acceptance because they said so and disregarded any supporting documents that I had sent over. This was on XX/XX/18. I gave credit acceptance the original 30 days allotted for dispute through XXXX, at the end of the 30 days they still reported false information. I am currently going through the mortgage underwriting process and this information immediately dropped my credit score XXXX points putting my mortgage approval in jeopardy. I will upload any documents I have. I can also provide the recorded conversation with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX co, clearly stating that the payment was for SETTLEMENT IN FULL.

Around XX/XX/XXXX my identity was stolen and someone purchased a vehicle from XXXX XXXX in XXXX, Kentucky. {$1200.00} was stolen from my account from XXXX XXXX and applied towards the down payment. Upon disputing the {$1200.00} taken by XXXX XXXX with XXXX XXXX. I was issued a credit in the amount of {$1200.00} because the investigation proved that I did not make this purchase. I have attempted several times to resolve this issue with XXXX XXXX and every time XXXX told to contact Credit Acceptance the auto Finance company. After several attempts and a year later I have not been capable of resolving the issue. Credit Acceptance stated they investigated my claim and that it was myself that purchased a XXXX XXXX XXXX for {$18000.00}. They have not presented me with any documentation to show that I bought a vehicle and they refuse to remove this account from my credit bureaus. I am exhausted with trying to resolve this issue and I would like to know what I should do to get this account removed from my credit bureaus. If I need to retain a lawyer and file a lawsuit against Ideal Auto and Credit Acceptance I will do that but I would prefer to know if thats my only option.

I purchased a vehicle for what I thought was XXXX financed through credit acceptance corporation. However I did not know that my interest rate was XXXX percent which made the total purchase amount around XXXX. I purchased a XXXX XXXX XXXX used with around XXXX miles. I had to request a copy of my vehicle agreement because I didnt understand how I was paying XXXX a month for 72 months in XXXX which they never sent me the documents from the beginning. XX/XX/XXXX my vehicle was totaled. I had XXXX coverage through the lender. The other young lady insurer paid around XXXX and XXXX picked up the rest of the original loan amount before the interest rate of XXXX percent. However XXXX acceptance has been reporting missed payments and a open loan status for this vehicle ( XXXX XXXX ) and another vehicle ( XXXX XXXX ) that they also financed me for in XXXX that was also totaled and the insurance company paid off. This company has blocked my access to the account history because I contacted my state attorney general here in North Carolina about how they were doing fraudulent acts and keeping me from obtaining credit or even housing because of those false claims on my credit.

I the the consumer aka the creditor have believe that i am a victim of identity fraud and have been held accountable for other false allegations. I spoke with the company about removing these alleged late car payments off of my credit file numerous times and no action has been taken place. I also spoke on a recorded conversation ( on their behalf ) and was told that I owed this debt. According to 15usc1681 this is a disclosure to the consumer ( me ) and is in fact against the law. I believe this debt falls under 15usc1681j charges for certain disclosures this contract is not signed by me the contract states that all documents are signed by me and the dealership with signature, everything is typed and electronically noted without my permission.Also even on the contract it says that the contract was wrongfully noted i have proof from the contract itself which is also considered tampering which is against the law. Lastly the contract states that I have the ability to dispute or resolve this issue. I am not a lawyer or attorney and neither am i making threats but under 15usc1679g any person who fails to comply with my request as the creditor will be held accountable.

In XXXX, we filed chapter XXXX bankruptcy in the Federal Courts of XXXX Indiana. After the case was filed, Credit Acceptance pationed the court to have the vehicle returned to them. The vehicle was in the state of California, they were told where the vehicle would be and to pick it up. A week went by and the bank did not pick up the car. The apartment complex where the vehicle was, had the vehicle towed. The company that towed the vehicle tried for many months to contact the bank to let them know he had the vehicle. The person that towed it put a mechanic 's lien against the car for towing and storage fees. After the required time the person that towed the vehicle had the state of California crush the car. Credit Acceptance never made an attempt to secure their interest after pationing the federal court. Now in XXXX, Credit Acceptance brings a debt garnishment suit to the state of Wisconsin and is given said garnishment for a debt that was suppose to be settled in federal court. They are garnishing my check for the balance owed, even though they never secured there interest in the pation that was given in federal court. Our bankruptcy case was dismissed in XXXX.

My XX/XX/XXXX credit score plunged 40 pts due to payment status changed to ( negative past 180 days for the period of over a year ) on Credit Acceptance reporting. Within a week I disputed with XXXX, XXXX, and Credit Acceptance including a copy XXXX report from both bureaus of on-time payments for the negative days recently reported. Credit Acceptance has been on-going with consistently changing to inaccurate information. XXXX has corrected information accordingly however, my XXXX report remains the same ; Dispute dates with both bureaus are XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. Additional incorrect information on reporting as follows : REMARK added regarding late payments, Payment status, balance due and initial open date. My main concern at this point is the negative remark and invalid late payments reported. Balance due of {$450.00} increased by {$240.00} on XX/XX/XXXX, after receiving the previous dispute. I guess this was a retaliation? I refused to pay the {$450.00} because it was paid by XXXX XXXX XXXX, after an accident and the remainder balance was covered by GAP. Note : other documentation is available upon request and has been submitted to bureaus and debtor.

On my credit report in XXXX the company began reporting my account as delinquent and placed it in collections/ charge off. In XXXX after consistently reporting my account as a charge off collection, they began reporting the account as open and late XXXX days. Since XXXX they have been reporting it monthly as a XXXX days late which continues to hurt the chances of my score rising and has had a greater impact on my score verses when they were reporting the collection/charge off. I have not consented to any payments or provided any payments since XXXX and have had no contact with them or any representatives of theirs. Nonetheless they have began reporting as if I became delinquent at a later date, which has not only significantly impacted my score monthly but has also lead to the statue of limitations to be extended by XXXX years. This account was suppose to be deleted in XXXX and is now scheduled for deflection in XXXX. Thats almost XXXX years past the start of the loan and the last actual payment made towards the loan. I have disputed but continue to be denied although I have prof of the account showing collections and chafed off during the years XXXX, & XXXX.

I fell behind on payments in XXXX of XXXXMy payments were XXXX a month. The car was repossessed in XXXX of XXXX. I had to pay around XXXX dollars ( but was past due XXXX months including XXXX to be around {$2500.00} and XXXX a month late fees to be a total of {$2500.00}, They have around XXXX past due ). I asked about a payment arrangement to get caught up but they never really gave me one. They stated that I needed to pay XXXX at the end of XXXX. I missed that payment date but paid XXXX the XXXX week of XX/XX/XXXX and another XXXX at the end of XXXX. I continued to pay as I could and ended up calling them in XXXX of XXXX to set up a payment arrangement as by that time they had me past due {$4300.00}. The advised me to start paying XXXX every XXXX weeks. I continued to pay and as of XXXX I am still past due {$3700.00}. The offers they are giving me dont seem to be paying off the past due balance at all. Even with a few payment not being the total amount it never seems to pay off the past due amount. They can never give me an explanation or what they do give doesnt even make any sense. The balance started out at XXXX balance now is XXXX. Thank you in advance

This is back in XXXX XXXX Virginia where me and my wife were going to check out a dealership called XXXX XXXX that was sending advertisements in the mail. We were gon na trade in our car for a more newer one. We were given an offer for them to buy our car and sell us a newer one. But at a much higher price. We did end up signing some paper work for them to see my credit score and see what they can do. Was n't good enough so we wanted to leave. They keeped pressuring us to do it and to use our credit cards or to contact family for money. After six hours trying to leave we had enough and told them no and asked for our keys back. They did not look happy. A day or two goes by and I check my credit score showing it went down about 35 to 40 points because I had two hard pulls from two different creditors for the used vehicle loan. It said I was denied when I did n't even go through with the dealership. Oh they also had me try to get a loan from XXXX so I also have that on XXXX credit score. Three hard pulls on the same day. One from XXXX XXXX, another from XXXX XXXX CO, and the last one from XXXX. All on the XXXX XXXX 2017. There is no amount because I was denied.

( A ) Reporting information with actual knowledge of errors A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate. ( B ) Reporting information after notice and confirmation of errors A person shall not furnish information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if- ( i ) the person has been notified by the consumer, at the address specified by the person for such notices, that specific information is inaccurate; and ( ii ) the information is, in fact, inaccurate. This is unfair and if they are doing this to me imagine who else they are doing this too. Can you fix

I got my vehicle loan through credit acceptance in XXXX of 2019 before Covid hit. When everything shut down I immediately called Credit Acceptance and spoke with a representative who assured me that my car wouldn't be repossessed and I was directed to call them when I was financially stable enough to resume payments. I was never given anything in writing that my vehicle was being repossessed, and I never received any correspondence from them stating that my loan was in default. They sent a recovery company to pick up my vehicle in the dark of the night and no paperwork was left explaining what had occurred. I thought my vehicle had been stolen. They waited over a year to report anything on my credit report then all of the sudden I get a notice that my credit score dropped over 100 points and that my car was being sold unless I was able to pay the past die of {$10000.00}. The crooked sneaky way they went about it has absolutely ruined my credit due to absolutely no fault of my own. It's not fair and should be removed from my credit report. Credit acceptance is a very bad bad company to deal with and I wish I had never gotten duped into financing through them

I financed a XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX of XXXX, the first day of having the vehicle, my rear passenger side door handle fell off and two over head handle bars in vehicle interior, within the first two months of having the vehicle, I replaced the whole front suspension, all 4 brakes and rotors, two sensors, three engine mounts, and the door handle. When I went to purchase the vehicle, the person selling me the vehicle, didnt not give me any information on the vehicle, did not offer me gap insurance or say anything about GAP insurance before I signed contract, he just gave me the papers to sign, showed me were to sign, did not give me adequate time to read the contract and took my money with little information on anything and he would not answer any questions I had. He had a normal two hour process done in less than 15 minutes. My car was financed at {$7100.00}. My interest is {$4400.00}. I got an appraisal on my vehicle and was told my vehicle is worth no more than {$1300.00}. I feel like I was scammed into a lemon vehicle that will not last more than a year or two at max and in a possible accident, I will be left with a high interest car loan and no vehicle.

This company uses harassing tactics to obtain payment. They call repeatedly during the day. They have called me in excess of 8 times on a sunday. They even harass on holidays. They agreed to change my due date for my repayment schedule and it was never adjusted. The company stated they only extended a courtesy for that time being. Which was completely false. An associate clearly asked me was there a better day throughout the month that would be easier for me to make my payment. I replied yes. We both agreed on the XXXX of the month. When I brought this up on one of their numerous harassing phone conversations they refused to pull this particular call and I was told that was only a one time courtesy, which was false. They called me 6 times on the XX/XX/22. I receive up to an excess of XXXX calls from them daily and these calls begin on the XXXX of the month before what would normally be considered close of business, XXXX pm and continue every single day until payment is made. They wont even give it XXXX hours after payment is due to begin to call. This is causing undue stress and Im in the process of obtaining legal representation to stop this harassment.

I bought a used car from Credit Acceptance back in XXXX of 2000 and I had the car for three months until they came and repossessed the car without notice. I got a letter from them telling me that they repossessed the car because no payments had been made on it which I didn't know because I never had use of the car, another person was using the car all this time. After I found this out they said I could get the car back which I tried to do several time but they never told me where the car was at so I could get it back because I had made payments on it myself. I came to find out that car was down state where I could not get it because I have no way to get it and they said that they didn't have no way to get to me. I have as of lately found out that the car still has not been sold and it is at a repossession dealer near me but I can't find out where it is. Since they have done this it is on my credit report which had and is making it hard for me to get a place to live so I ended up living in a homeless shelter for nine months. I need a car badly but I don't want to get it through them again. Can you please resolve this problem for me. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

The owner response was its nothing he could do about it because it was included in my 90 day warranty. My warranty was still active. I called Credit Acceptance and asked them what to do. They told me it 's nothing that they could do. I continued to pay on my car. I still drive the car because that 's the only transportation I have to and from work. It 's been two weeks today XXXX XXXX XXXX since I 've drove my car because it wo n't crank. It wo n't do anything.

It 's been very stressful and just nerve wrecking not being able to work how I 'm supposed to.

I have a loan with credit acceptance ( acct # XXXX ) which is up to date. The loan was both in my husband and my name. My husband totaled the car, and his insurance company, XXXX paid {$10.00}, XXXX on XX/XX/2020. I called and spoke to a representative about the remaining balance in the beginning of XXXX and requested that my credit score be updated within 30 days. Afterwards I made arrangements to pay off the balance of the loan and made a payment of {$480.00} on XX/XX/2020. This brought the balance current. The representative stated that my credit score would be updated by XX/XX/2020 to reflect the current balance. I checked my credit report with all three agencies and it is reflecting a balance of {$17.00}, XXXX Credit acceptance requested an additional 30 days to correct the balance although I stated that I am aware of my rights as a consumer and that the company legally has 30 days to respond to correspondence/communication regarding accurate account balances. I spoke with XXXX, XXXX ( supervisor ) and XXXX in the corporate office, whom requested that I just keep calling the company until I can reach someone from their credit reporting division.

I had taken out an auto loan in XXXX and i had purchased gap coverage. When the vehicle began totaled they tried changing the term of the agreement stating that because the loan was behind on payments the gap coverage doesn't cover the whole loan. Which I don't understand because gap insurance wasn't purchased through them. On XXXX XXXX I had a vehicle become totaled by a accident. I provided all necessary information to the financial institution credit acceptance to process for GAP. The company came back a month and a half later stating they received the payment for XXXX they paid {$7900.00} and gap only paid {$5300.00} leaving a balance of {$3400.00}. We asked several times in XXXX why was there still a balance when we had GAP they said because the vehicle was behind on payments and GAP wouldn't cover the whole thing. We reached out to the GAP company to find out why only a portion was paid. They stated they paid what the finance company reported to them and would have paid the entire amount, but was only given {$5300.00} which they paid. In XXXX they sent the account to a law firm for collection. We have been unsuccessful in resolving this issue.

My back mailed a check for {$6500.00} plus dollars on XX/XX/XXXX, which was right in the the 10 day payoff period. The checked was cashed on XX/XX/XXXX. I received a call from a young lady from Credit Acceptance Corporation in XXXX, MI who identified herself as an operations manager. She asked me was it a mistake that a check was sent for that amount. I replied no stating that was the payment amount and they the loan had been picked up by my credit union. She then told me that the payoff amount was incorrect and I owed {$4000.00} more dollars. I explained to her that I had the paperwork from Credit Acceptance with the payoff amount on it. I insisted on giving her my credit union 's number but she said that she could not speak with them and she could only speak to me, which sounded very strange. Can you please look into this matter because they seem to have some subpar business practices.

I sent a police report, affidavit from Federal Trade Commission, affidavit from DMV, and a statement from me explaining the situation.I have several attempts to rectify this situation and it's still here affecting my credit. It's affecting my life and i didn't even do it. I have never applied or accepted and loan/lease from Credit Acceptance, so it should be removed as soon as possible.

After call after call and letter after letter, Credit Acceptance will not do anything.I need help.

My vehicle at the time was reported stolen in early XXXX and settled with insurance which paid only blue book value at the amount of {$4600.00}. At this time, Credit Acceptance was showing a remaining balance of {$4300.00}. I'm not denying there was a balance. I am denying this account being OPEN. They are reporting an open account on my credit and adding monthly fees as if I am in possession of this vehicle still. Although they updated amount of remaining balance in XXXX oXXXX XXXX as {$4300.00}, they reported a remaining balance of {$4200.00} in XXXX of XXXX. That amount remained the same until XXXX of XXXX which at that time was listed as {$5100.00}, which an additional total of {$860.00}. Every month after it has been additional amounts ranging from $ XXXX {$70.00} in different amount each month up until the current month, now showing I owe {$5600.00} as of this month. I have disputed this account and amounts a few times from different credit sites and they seem to continue to report this account as being open. I would like it to appear as closed as it is a closed account. I can not get my credit score under control because of this company.

That GAP protection was issued by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and I was told by them that the protection was cancelled and there would be a partial refund issued. I then spoke with a customer service agent at Credit Acceptance an d was flat out told that there would be no refund issued to me on this.

So I should be entitled to that partial GAP refund because I 'm the one who paid for it. Credit Acceptance Corp., is re fusing, actually they are just telling me that there will be no refund issued to me for the GAP period, end of story, sorry! BS

I have further looked into this debt being reported as my debt on all three bureaus and on the three different bureaus the reporting is vet different as if someone is trying to continually make this a new debt that I will not assume as my own as it it a result of identity theft, 1 XXXX has this debt listed as XXXX negative payments with one on time payment being made in XXXX. It is also being reported as 76 % of the debt being paid. That is not true I had no knowledge of this debt until XXXX of XXXX when I reported the identity theft on this account. 2 XXXX has this identity theft debt listed as 26 negative payments with 3 on time payments in XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX again stating 76 % of this debt has been paid off. 3. XXXX has this identity theft debt reported as 16 negative payments with again 76 % of this false debt paid off and 4 on time payments XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. Finally if this were a valid account belonging to me wouldnt there have been a repossession long ago?? This is identity theft and I will pursue all action necessary to remedy this situation with Credit Acceptance.

I am currently faced with payments for a car, financed through Credit Acceptance, that is more for the car is worth, and more importantly, more than I can afford. I've asked this company several times to refinance for a lower payment while I was in good standing because I calculated what was going to happen BEFORE IT IS NOW HAPPENING, but I was denied every time. I am highly upset because due to COVID I was only working part-time, and therefore had a lower income. This Company claims it's phone calls are recorded, but have yet been able to speak to someone who has reviewed my complaints. Every time I ask for a refinance, my claims have been denied and now I'm faced with a bill that is extremely difficult to maintain for a car that is not worth the payment! My car was repossed XXXX XXXX, XXXX, and then repossed again XX/XX/XXXX. Both repossessions I was able to get my car back, but this car has created a hardship for me to maintain it because the interest rate continues to go up, whereas I am now paying double a month for the same car. I have asked several times for this car to be refinanced to get a lower payment, but each time I was denied!

I had a XXXX on or about XX/XX/, I had to go on FMLA leave from my employer due to my untimely health event. While you are on FMLA you do not earn your paycheck but your job is secured. I phoned Credit Acceptance requesting a difference and or any way they could assist. I was vehemently denied any assistance on my monthly payments, and told they don't offer those programs. I began working again on XX/XX/, however, I was demoted, and reduced to part time, with restricted hours, which is already being addressed by my attorney and employer. I have been making payments on my vehicle on a bi-weekly basis, attempting to " catch up ''. I have received 8 to 10 phone calls daily from credit acceptance, some after XXXX XXXX. These are threatening phone calls, and excessive. This is not helping my recovery, but instead is causing undue stress to my health conditions. I have requested intermittent FMLA from my employer as other health conditions have been exposed by the initial health event. I do not need or invite their continued harassments when I have been attempting to get caught up on my finance loan. These business practices should be investigated.

I was a victim of blatant predatory lending by Credit Acceptance Corporation. They charged me 22.99 % interest for a car loan, which is very high but due to my less than ideal credit and not understanding the contract I signed. Later while working with a Financial Coach at a non-profit we looked at my loan and vehicle. He pulled the XXXX value on the vehicle and we found that the vehicle with a clean retail is only worth {$5700.00}. I paid {$9100.00} for the vehicle and by the time the loan is paid I will have paid {$19000.00}. A lender should not give a secured loan for a vehicle to a customer with less than perfect credit ( or anyone ) with almost a 160 % LTV. The whole transaction is predatory but the aspect of the lender giving a loan for 160 % of what the vehicle is worth is the aspect that seems completely unlawful and undeniably predatory.The loan was signed in XX/XX/XXXX, and we pulled the XXXX value ( bluebook value ) on XX/XX/XXXX only 6 months later. The car would not have depreciated in value very much in those 6-months, especially with an already older vehicle. We used the millage of the car when it was bought in XX/XX/XXXX.

In XX/XX/XXXX i contact the law firm that they use to sue me and offered to pay a reduced amount of {$1000.00} dollars to settle the case. The lawyer said that they have to contact their client to see if they will accept that amount. Couple days later i contacted the law firm and they told me that the client said they will accept no less than {$1400.00} dollars to settle the account so i agreed and paid that amount the same day anyway i received information in the mail from the law firm and the court saying that the account is paid off and settle and the case against me was dismissed but Credit Acceptance Corp. havent report to the credit agencies that the account is settled. I contacted them in XX/XX/XXXX and they told me they were waiting for information from the court so i told them i received mine in XX/XX/XXXX them the lady said oh they have received the documents and they would update the information with the credit agencies no later than the XX/XX/XXXX and until now they havent.

I settled an auto repossession debt from 2010 ( i gave the car back because it stopped working because it was a flood damaged vehicle from Hurricane XXXX ). I paid the settlement amount to Credit Acceptance and they acknowledged receipt, and that the debt has been settled. The problem is I am trying to purchase a home and I need to have my credit report updated ASAP to reflect this information and Credit Accept refuses to release the information to XXXX XXXX. Despite the fact that I have authorized them to release the information. Every time XXXX calls them they refuse to release the info and I am told by the credit report people that Credit Accept is refusing to respond to electronic requests to update the information. This does not seem fair especially in light of the fact that the automobile was defective in the first place, and they said they would accept the car back to satisfy the debt ( but then they wound up putting a collection on my credit report ). When i call Credit Acceptance to complain they say they will cooperate with XXXX, but when XXXX calls they refuse to cooperate. I feel that Credit Acceptance is acting in bad faith.

I paid this account off via settlement with two payments on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX to Credit Acceptance 's third party collector XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. This company has since forwarded the payments over to Credit Acceptance last month. As of today, XX/XX/XXXX I still have not received a {$0.00} balance letter from Credit Acceptance. I have called and placed verbal authorized twice now for the three credit bureaus to call and verify the balance. XXXX calls and gets a {$0.00} balance. XXXX calls and speaks to a XXXX and gets a no the balance isn't updated and the file is with their legal team. XXXX speaks to a XXXX and she says no authorization has been placed. Again I've placed specific authorization with specific names from each bureau that will be calling TWICE. I want my {$0.00} balance/ settled letter as this was a ton of money I paid out to settle this account. I am being told that home new home closing set for XX/XX/XXXX will now be delayed due to this and that I may have to switch to another home! Again I paid this out on XX/XX/XXXX & XX/XX/XXXX. This is ample enough time for me to get an updated letter from Credit Acceptance.

i disputed once with the credit bureaus in which i received a letter saying this debt was verified. I then reached out to credit acceptance corp a nd they say it is validated ... .How can this account be verified and validated when there are tons of inaccurate information being reported? I have attached a copy of the contract they sent with the obvious different spelling of the name similar to mine. i have never lived at that address either. i am attaching a copy of both letters. This account is reporting on XXXX and XXXX ( XXXX deleted ) with 2 different dates of last activity XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX this account has been reaged. And account type reading as an auto loan when in fact it should read credit sale. I have attached a copy for your review. these are clear violations and there is no possible way they conducted a proper investigation as required by law. i also contacted the credit bureaus pertaining to XXXX XXXX as they are reporting a tradeline tied to this account they also stated that this is verified. i am attaching a copy of the letters sent to them. There are multiple violations and inaccuracies reported.

This dispute is to start an investigation regarding unauthorized and/or possibly fraudulent information which is certainly unproven to be compliant with proper reporting guidelines of credit inquiry ( ies ) and/or credit account ( s ) reported by furnishers on my transunion credit report.

Vehicle ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) was repossessed XXXX XXXX Credit Acceptance Corporation ( Creditor ) continues to report to my credit reports as an open account. Vehicle was purchased for {$7300.00} in XXXX, AZ in XX/XX/XXXX. After interest and fees the overall cost of the vehicle was {$9600.00}. Credit Acceptance Corporation reported XX/XX/XXXX that my remaining balance is {$15000.00}. I have reached out numerous times via letters and phone calls and have received no answers or solutions to this problem. With the corruption that their prior CEO was just found guilty of and the millions of dollars in pay outs they were forced to pay, this is clearly a company that isnt trustworthy and will manipulate the public to achieve a financial goal. The account you are reporting is identified as a ''repossession, yet you continue to report late payments. Since the vehicle is no longer in my possession, it would be impossible for me to default on payments after the fact. I have the right to an accurate credit file and discrepancies like this are unacceptable. Please immediately remove this account in its entirety from my credit file.

My boyfriend gave me power of attorney to speak to this company so I could pay off the truck, I've been trying for 6 months to get someone to speak to me even sent them a copy of paperwork twice and they are saying it's not good enough. I had the money to pay it totally off twice but had to spend it on trying to fix me something to drive till I figure it out. Now it's gone, they got it. My POA says unlimited. At first they even made arrangements and said after court we'd figure it out then they just refused to talk to me, I'm on his paperwork as someone to speak with as well. Why would I make payments if I had the cash to pay it all. I've been harassed so much from this company and it's caused me a lot of stress, calling all hours, beeping in my other line as I'm speaking to them only to say they won't speak to me. Now they want me to call them? I have no concerns.I expect the truck back or at least my tire/wheels and other accessories After the stress they put me through. They took full advantage of this situation in my eyes.Ive already spoke my concerns now they need to address the problem. The XXXX is involved now as well

A sub-prime lender I am having problems with a warranty issue for a vehicle loan. Marked me 30 Days late on my account. This only occurred when I have a current dispute with a warranty I am trying to get refunded. Which i reached out to the dealer for possible Fraud. I have submitted my bank accounts statements as to when the payment was made. XX/XX/XXXX was the due date. Which was a Saturday. They posted my payment on Monday the XXXX. Or I believe they may have said the XXXX. In any case I paid on the XXXX. I do NOT have one late payment to that account. Nor do I have any late payments on my credit report for any account I have. All my accounts get paid on time. The balance in my checking account was more than 50 times the amount of the payment. The funds were available. They refuse to correct the 30 days late and it is causing major financial difficulties. My score went from XXXX to XXXX. From that one FALSE late payment in that account I am disputing. This is unfair. Especially during a pandemic I am struggling to keep everything current and they are falsifying or not taking the time to research the paid item.

I paid my car off on XX/XX/XXXX with Credit Acceptance Corporation. I had a refund of {$730.00} coming to me. I called XX/XX/XXXX as I had not received it. They stated they saw the check hadnt been cashed but I would have to wait 30 days to ask them for new check. On XX/XX/XXXX I called again as I still have not received refund check. They said they would submit new request for check to be sent. I called today, XX/XX/XXXX as I still have not received a check. They stated that today they sent over for a new request and would have to wait until they could verify a check they said they sent has not been cashed. I asked when I spoke to them XXXX that they said they were submitting a request and that now they are saying they just sent that request to another department today meaning I will have to wait however long until they finally resend a new check. They are blaming that mail just lost the original check yet I managed to get bill every month with no issue? I believe they are stalking and now it has been 2 months since I paid my loan off and still have yet to receive check on my refund. This is highly predator them.

I co-signed on a loan with Credit Acceptance for my ex-husband, he got into an accident with that car loan and the car was fully covered by insurance company so it should have paid off the loan. My husband and I separated and I found out years later that the loan company only paid everything but one payment. Since they were unable to locate my husband they charged off the account, then they located me years later and has been reporting as open and late payments years later. I agreed to pay off loan with them marking account paid as agreed on my credit. I sent certified letter for this and spoke with someone on XX/XX/2023 and XX/XX/2023 when I made final payment agreeing that they received the letter and would mark account as paid as agreed. There are also several inaccuries being reported on my credit with this car company and this has been reported to all 3 major credit bureaus. This is still listing with an open balance of {$390.00} to spite it being paid on the XX/XX/2023 and all late payments are still reflecting. Every time I contact Credit Acceptance they state they will remove them and they are still not removed.

My husband bought a truck from XXXX XXXX XXXX while I was at work. He got it a few months before he passed in XXXX of 2020.

I sent them an email saying we loved it but I couldn't afford it. They then tried to get my insurance for XXXX worth of hail damage that was already on the vehicle. That got denied then they sold it and want me to pay the difference. I have no job and XXXX kids. I have no extra money to pay the difference is XXXX dollars. Unfortunately I just don't have that kind of money. They sent me a paper saying I'm going to be taken to court but no court date has been set and I am trying to get a home for me an my children and this is really hurting my credit. The place contacting me is credit acceptance corporations. I've tried sending proof of the signatures not matching. That I was at work during this time. I don't know what else to do.

I took a auto loan with credit acceptance my Vechile was stolen and my insurance paid majority of the loan I had gap insurance which they claim I was missing a payment so the gap only paid partial of the remaining balance. I believe this was rigged and somehow wrong however credit acceptance never contacted me on the balance. And in XXXX a month after the gap insurance paid. Credit acceptance reported approximately {$900.00} On my credit report. I believe this was a form of harassment because they did not get make money off me with a complete loan term. However after contacting credit acceptance I agreed to settle with the amount of XXXX I paid this and they then reported I was still late on XX/XX/2022. Which I paid before this date. After they reported this amount they reported flagged my credit report 60 days past due even though I settled. This was a means of harassment. I will be filing a million dollar lawsuit against them. But I must fill these channels. Credit acceptance uses peoples credit reporting as means of and forms of harassment and bullying this is wrong and credit acceptance should be held accountable

My monthly car payment is and has been set to come out of our account on the XXXX of every month via auto-pay. I have not missed a payment for a year. My husband misplaced his debit card end of XX/XX/2021, and when he went to get a replacement card I did not realize it automatically turned auto-pay off for our car note, seeing as our bank account information was included in the auto-pay and not just the debit card. XX/XX/2021 the auto-pay never went through, which I was completely unaware of as I had just had a baby 4 days before, the last thing on my mind was checking my account to make sure the auto-pay went through as it has for the past year. We did not know the bill was late or hadn't gone through since we did not receive any calls from the company until after XX/XX/2021. As soon as we found out the auto-pay hadn't been paid for 60 days we quickly paid the bill for both months and got caught up seeing as the money was sitting in our account all along. However, this has effected our credit score drastically as they reported two missed payments in the last 60 days and I feel these late payments need to be removed.

When the vehicle was repossessed and then sold at an auction. I was not given any information as to where or when the auction was taking place nor given any written letter giving me a chance to redeem the vehicle. Once vehicle was sold they tried to still report the whole amount owed on the vehicle u set my credit report vs updating the amount left after the vehicle was sold. I have requested multiple times including filed a legal notarized FCRA dispute forms to all 3 credit bureaus to provide all the original documents proving they have followed the legal steps after the vehicle was repossessed and have not wrongfully reported incorrect information but have not received anything in over 60 days as the documents I sent gave a 30 day notice to do so or delete. They have failed to follow any and all request for proof and original documents. They have reported inaccurate information to the credit bureaus and are trying to have me still pay full amount after they have sold the vehicle and received money for it. I have tried to talk with them over the phone and received very hostile conversations with the representatives.

I recently received a statement from the IRS claiming I suddenly had a {$900.00} tax bill from XXXX. The year I 'm writing this statement is XXXX. Apparently, Credit Acceptance filed a XXXX for an account I may have had 15 years ago. I 'm not really sure when I had an account but I know for a fact that I have n't had an account with this company within the last 7 years. I am in the process of buying a home ( timing could n't be more perfect ) and I 've been monitoring my credit for the last 5 years to qualify for a mortgage. Therefore this claim would have shown up. Credit Acceptance claimed over {$3800.00} of my debt was forgiven. Thus leaving me with more income than originally stated, creating a {$900.00} tax bill. These types of bogus accounting tactics should be removed from our court systems.. I have faith the IRS will investigate the legitimacy of the false claim, however Credit Acceptance 's financial records need to be reviewed with a fine tooth comb. If anyone reading this has suffered the same fate, you can file a XXXX complaint ( XXXX 'Form XXXX ' ) with the IRS and maybe everything will work out ....

It was a very high-pressure sale and i had no real knowledge of buying cars with liens attached.

I eventually accepted my situation and continued to make my payments on time every month. I have been looking through my contract and found a couple of issues. in light of section XXXX MN statues XXXX XXXX the APR cap for MN would be 21.75 % and I currently have a 22.99 % APR on my auto installment agreement which is also above the XXXX of XXXX percent tolerance for accuracy pursuant to 12 CFR 226.13 ( G ).

I began a vehicle loan with Credit Acceptance aroundXX/XX/XXXX. I have never missed or been late on a payment. At the start of my agreement, the dealership setup my account with Credit Acceptance for auto pay ; The dealer entered the incorrect account numbers. I called credit acceptance consistently for 1 week to find out why the money had not been withdrawn from my checking account. Once they advised that the payment was returned I paid immediately using my debit card. InXX/XX/XXXX Credit Acceptance upgraded their website with actual account holder information ( previously you could only make payments and it was done through XXXX XXXX ). With their upgrade, when I went online to make my monthly payment, it shows my balance being almost {$1000.00}. I was shocked and outraged, when I called Credit Acceptance to inquire what was happening, the rep ( who was really nice ) advised me that my account has been reporting past due from the very first payment and that I have accumulated a multitude of late fees. After our conversation, I immediately checked my credit score and it was decreased by 150 points. I am outraged!

After missing payments before COVid-19 and then being told not to make payments during the pandemic because of the state the country was in. After returning to making payments the company XXXX XXXX XXXX or XXXX ) sets higher payments and know you cant afford or make them ( the called them promised payments or payment arrangements ). They dont offer deferred payments something not mentioned when purchasing the car. They also constant threaten you with repossession. Picking the car up several times during the year to try and force you to make payments. Payments are not applied to the principal. Almost done with the loan and still owe more than half of it. They constantly harass you from XXXX to XXXX everyday by call multiple times even when you have spoken to someone already. I feel my complaint is similar to the New York class action lawsuit. The company is abusive and predatory lender. My credit report and score is worse since borrowing from this company because of how it reports its late payments and information. I consider myself a hard working XXXX whom is being taken advantage of because of my circumstances

My ex husband and I got a loan in XXXX for a vehicle, I was the co signer. The loan was almost all paid off but before it was we divorced. In the divorce settlement it is written that my ex husband take all the marital debt and it be removed by the creditors and bureaus. I have been fighting this company since XXXX of XXXX. I have written letters to them, sent the court order that is signed and filed. Sent the same to all three credit bureaus. Just talked with XXXX from Credit acceptance, she stated in a recorded call that this company doesn't accept or honor divorce decrees. I don't even know what the balance was for. I am trying to get a home loan and keep being denied because of this BS. How can any company not HONOR A COURT ORDER????? Isn't that what we have courts for order? So in order to free myself of their racketeering scam I was forced to pay it off, so in due time ( on their schedule of course ) they will say its been satisfied, that is not good enough, this is not my responsibility to pay for it. I went through the right channels to get it removed from my responsibility when the divorce happened.

After spending hours at a local dealership, I found out only one 'bank ' would approve me for a car loan. The payments for a 2018 vehicle costing {$14000.00} on the lot ended up being {$430.00} with {$1000.00} down. The 'bank ' was Credit Acceptance , when reading the paperwork it was brought to my knowledge the interest rate was 20 %- the HIGHEST interest rate I have ever seen for a vehicle. I understand my credit is POOR-FAIR and fluctuates every couple of months but this interest rate appeared criminal. The overall cost for this vehicle at the end of the loan is {$10000.00} more than the initial purchase price. After purchasing the vehicle, as I NEED a vehicle, I read the online reviews and found this company has been in several class action lawsuits for illegal interest rates and unfairly conning lower-income individuals and those with less than perfect credit. I feel ashamed and embarrassed for not doing my research on Michigan interest laws and what is legal and accepted practices. I want the interest rate lowered to Michigan law standards or else I will have to pursue legal correction on this matter.

I have had an auto loan with Credit Acceptance sinceXX/XX/2019. I was XXXX at the time and didnt know any better when I got the car. They sold it to me for XXXX, but somehow by the time I signed the contract I owed {$19000.00} and now ( 4 years later ) I still owe roughly {$5000.00}. For about half a year now, I have been trying to get a new vehicle because I now realize I way overpaid for my car. I was told at the dealership, when I bought it, that in a couple years I could refinance my car, only to find out after a couple of years that Credit Acceptance doesnt refinance cars. I have had a hard time getting it refinanced through anybody else ever since. I have also tried selling and trading in my car, but everywhere I turn, I cant even get payoff for my car due to how much I overpaid for it. I am struggling making my payments and I can not get out from under this car. I am not the only person I know in my town that bought a car from these people, only to severely regret it later. I wish I wouldve had someone to guide me when I got this car, but I didnt and now 4 years later, Im still paying the consequences.

I have two car loans with Credit Acceptance. One loan has been opened since XX/XX/XXXX and the other since XX/XX/XXXX. I have always paid my car loans either on time or EARLY. I had just moved and started a new job so I am a total of 3 days late on my current payment. In two days, I have received over 11 calls from credit acceptance telling me to call them regarding my loan. I answered this morning and the man I spoke to was demanding a payment today when I told him I just started a new job and my payment wouldnt be until next Saturday he continued asking me my pay schedule. I expressed my upset with the man due to the amount of calls Ive been receiving as Im trying to work and my phone keeps going off at work and I keep getting in trouble. The man then THREATENED to send me to collections for a payment that is 3 DAYS LATE and stated that the next day after a payment is late it gets sent to collections! I am beyond livid and extremely upset with the fact that they can treat their customers this way! This will be reported to the XXXX as well as a horrible review left on XXXX! This is TERRIBLE customer service!

On XX/XX/2015, I purchased a used XXXX XXXX and financed the purchase via a loan from Credit Acceptance Corporation. Upon review on the loan terms, I noted that the interest rate charged by Credit Acceptance Corporation is above the usury rate for Texas, the state I purchased the vehicle in, originated the loan in, and in which I currently reside. I contacted Credit Acceptance Corporation about this issue ; however, they refuse to acknowledge the fraudulent loan or make any effort to resolve the situation. I believe Credit Acceptance Corporation and its agents have discriminated against me on the basis of race, country of origin / nationality, sexual orientation, age, and gender. Furthermore, I believe Credit Acceptance Corporation is structuring its loans in a way that constitutes unfair, deceptive, or abusive acts or practices, as the loans interest is above my state 's usury rate and is charged as an up-front fee, and therefore prepaying the loan does not result in a reduction of total interest charged. Also, Credit Acceptance Corporation violated the laws of the State of Texas by issuing this loan.

This account did go to collections. XXXX XXXX sold my account to a collection attorney because at this time, my husband was severely injured in the coal mine he worked. He had to receive XXXX XXXX surgeries. After all was said and done, I reached out to the attorney to begin payments on my debt. The account has been paid in full and I was mailed the title to the vehicle. A year or so later, the vehicle was traded in on a truck. XXXX XXXX continues to report this account as open, delinquent, with a {$3300.00} balance. Since XXXX. I do not owe this money. They do not have the title but continue to refuse to remove this from my credit file. I would NOT have been able to trade this vehicle in without a title. My issue is that I don't know how to prove this as this occurred almost 10 years ago and I have nothing to definitively prove this is what happened. As of XXXX this account is the only negative mark on my consumer file. They have refused to remove this and I am in desperate need of assistance. Please ask them for a copy of the title to prove the account. They can't do it because they don't have it. I DID.

In XXXX of 2019 I purchased a car with a loan from Credit Acceptance. I was only XXXX XXXX XXXX at the time with no credit history, and was unaware of how terrible this loan was. I was denied the opportunity to take out a smaller loan for a cheaper car. They only gave me the option for a {$14000.00} purchase with a 22.99 % interest rate, and me being young with no one to help me figure out that this wasn't right took it anyways I was not told that they do not allow refinancing through their company and have no payment deferral options if I were to need it in the future. So I now am XXXX already payed around {$13000.00} on this car that I never asked for, still owe {$14000.00} going through a rough patch, have almost no choice but to just accept that I'll still have to pay them for nothing as well as have no reliable transportation to work. What company honestly thinks that a XXXX XXXX XXXX kid working fast food in the XXXX can afford to make a {$410.00} per month payment. Based on the history of company it would seem that I'm not the first or last person that they will take advantage of just to make money.

On XXXX I reported this company for many issues. Since the report with your Bureau, the company has contacted me but had no resolution, but I requested to be removed from the loan and this still has not happened. To date I was not removed from the loan. All documents for the car ( Registration, Insurance, and title are in the owner 's name ) as it is supposed to be, but I remain on the loan. I am submitting this complaint because I would like to be removed from the loan. There is no reason of why I should be on the loan. The owner of the car has tried to contact the company on many occasions in attempt to ask them to remove me and was unsuccessful. As of date the car has been in my name for six - seven months and I would like to be removed from the loan ASAP. I do not need the company telephoning me to get information, to help them respond to you. I need them to remove me from the car loan they can call the owner for the vehicle, and converse with him. I prefer not to receive any mail on this matter either. They should respond to your company, the owner of the vehicle, and to the credit bureaus only.

Upon my arrival, the documents were already laid out for me to sign. It was approaching closing time and I was urged to without even time to read what I was signing. The lady told me that it is past closing time and she had to go. I had to sign. I was able to see after signing that my monthly payment would be {$480.00}. The amount of credit was {$18000.00}. And the finance charge will be {$14.00}, XXXX. All this came to my knowledge after I finished signing. There was no turning back, it seemed. Two weeks later, the Covid Pandemic struck. I lost time at work but I still managed to be making payments. After paying close to {$9000.00}, the XXXX I financed, has gone nowhere. I called Credit Acceptance and they told me there is nothing they could do. I tried to refinance the car with XXXX XXXX, they would not. They said i owe more on the car than the car is worth. The car is used and is beginning to require serious maintenance.

Credit Acceptance Account Number- XXXX I financed a XXXX XXXX XXXX from this company back in XX/XX/XXXX. This vehicle was involved in a hit and run back in XX/XX/XXXX. I purchased gap insurance. The insurance company made a payment of {$7900.00}. Gap insurance was suppose to cover the remaining of the vehicle. They requested a police report which I submitted a partial police report because the investigation was on going because the person who hit my vehicle led the police on a chase and somehow was able to flee the police. So the police report was never finish. This company closed out my gap claim and now for 2+ years have been reporting my account past due. I contacted them to see if they could reopen Gap claim to cover charges and company denied my request. This account has negatively impacted my credit score. The account remains open until today reporting 120 days past due each month which is inaccurate reporting. I am unable to purchase another car or a home because of this account. Thank you for ruining my credit after I purchase gap for this particular reason and it didnt fall through for me.

Through research I've learned that sometimes companies will record a false payment which causes the 7 years on your report to start over. This was a vehicle we helped a family member get and they defaulted. I have been working hard to repair my credit since my divorce, but the actions of this company have been detrimental in repairing my score. In XX/XX/2020, my score dropped 123 points and has had minor drops with each reported " missed payment ''. I had filed a dispute with XXXX, but the company merely made a " correction '' to something and the " correction '' was made on my report. I'm not sure what that correction was, but it was not the issue I am dealing with. Here is the company info : CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPOR XXXX XXXX XXXX CREDIT DISPUTE DEPT XXXX, MI XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) XXXX

I initially send a copy of my FCT report and identification to all credit bureaus in XXXX. I received a notification via my XXXX account that the account for the company Credit Acceptance would stay on my account. I had been working directly with the company in the past to remove this from my credit as it is not my debt and identity fraud. I spoke with an employee at Credit Acceptance XX/XX/XXXX, then another employee named XXXX in the complaint department XX/XX/XXXX. She informed me that they had received a fax from me from XXXX but it was half way cut off so they could not determine anything. I informed her I in fact had not sent them a fax of anything and it more than likely was from the credit bureaus. XX/XX/XXXX I then faxed XXXX the information requested ( which I had previously mailed a while back when trying to get this off ) my ID, ( social ), FTC report, my signature 5 times. She mailed me a letter stating what I had send wasn't enough evidence when in fact I sent everything that was asked. This company is determined to keep this own my credit when it is clear this was identity fraud.

My car was repossessed in XX/XX/2023 and I paid them off in XX/XX/2023 to the tune of {$5000.00}. I have had to call them over XXXX times regarding the release of my vehicle. As of XX/XX/2023, They still can not seem to get the release to the correct company that is holding my car. They have lied about everything from the beginning including that I had to take their service contract for {$2400.00} to get the loan. They have lied repeatedly to me regarding releasing my car for over XXXX months after it was paid in full. Now they are trying to add money owed for the storage of my car that they will not release. They are telling me I still owe {$150.00}!! I have not been able to work in those XXXX months and XXXX now about to be evicted.

This lender is now considered a predatory lender after thorough research on this company. The name is credit acceptance. I have a car financed with them and made payment arrangements on the vechicle. We both agreed that there is a contractual obligation in place but they would make an exception and allow the payment to be made late. This was considered a verbal contract made on XX/XX/2019. At which time they said they would accept the payment on friday XX/XX/XXXX in the interim they repossed the vehicle on XX/XX/2019. They were contacted about this on XX/XX/2019 and the supervisor, XXXX advised that it was a system error. I requested the car to be released with just one payment which i was only due for one payment and it was 17 or so days past due. They stated they would not waive any fees. Im filing the complaint so that they may be reprimanded and also im seeking punitive and physical physical damage from the company as well through a lawsuit.

The mechanic said he would attempt to repair the car however he said it needed extensive work. We called back to the car dealership and was told that they would only do one repair to the head gasket. I personally paid for the second head gasket in order to keep the car from not smoking constantly. Again the same mechanic attempted to fix the car I went back to the dealership to see if there was something that they could do to assist me to give me another call I was told at that time it was on me even though they had filled out a work request slip. After spending close to XXXX dollars and Reporting this to credit acceptance and the manager at the car dealership I returned the vehicle. 4 years later there has constantly been reports on my credit saying that I owe money and there's interest accumulated as if I am in possession of this car when I explained the situation I was told to file a complaint.

On the date XX/XX/2020 I did a consumer credit transaction with XXXX XXXX XXXX dealership and extended my credit with a finance charge through Credit Acceptance Corporation. I am the original creditor extending my credit ( SSN Card ) pursuant to 15 USC 1602 ( L ) but the creditor fraduently finance me a car through this process. Pursuant to 15 USC 1605 ( a ) the finance charge which was included within my credit transaction should be the sum of all charges. Mind you the finance charge is a total of {$11000.00} exact but this dealership and financial institution gave me a total sale price of {$32000.00} ( see attachment for Exhibit A ). That is a total of {$21000.00} charged over the sum of all charges this is inaccurate and unfair credit card practice that utterly goes against this subchapter of the TILA ( Truth in Lending Act ). The finance charge section under my signed contract does not include my insurance coverage which should, which downright breaks federal law pursuant to 15 USC 1605 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( see attachment for Exhibit B ). Sadly this is fraud so this contract is now void.

starting last year I noticed that my vehicle finance company was showing me as missing and or being late on payments that did not add up. I sent inquiries via the email portal on their website and I never got a response. The information on my credit report is not accurate or up to date. The account is actually closed now " paid in full '' and it still shows me as having a balance on my credit report. When i contacted the company they claimed that everything is correct, but it is not. I have done the disputes through XXXX XXXX and they have come back the same and nothing is being done to correct the wrong information nor have they updated showing that the account is paid in full. I need help and or guidance on how to force them to update my account as paid in full, and remove some of if not all of the negative marks on my account and credit report since they never provided me with information showing when I was late or what payment I had totally missed ... I mean, if I had missed 18 payments on a vehicle ... it would have been repossessed. The name of the company is Credit acceptance.

Credit Acceptance Corporation has reported multiple insurance purposely to different credit agencies. The car was bought with a former spouse. The former spouse disappeared and I filed for dissolution of marriage. Since I left with nothing but the clothes on my back and left my former spouse everything including money, apartment, and vehicle, in the decree, the Superior Court Judge awarded her all property. I solely kept the vehicle I purchased when I left. As a note, it took months to process the dissolution of marriage as event the sheriff 's office could not find her to serve the documents. My lawyer and the judge made very clear that I would be losing all rights to the vehicle and the possessions I left with her. When I called Credit Acceptance Corporation, I was cursed at, told that Credit Acceptance will does not have to abide by what a judge says in another state and demanded payment or adverse credit reporting will continue. I contacted another legal team to deal with Credit Acceptance Corporation. Just a look at consumer reviews are enough to send chills down your spine.

The insurance company XXXX declared the truck as a Total lost. Now I can not get my truck registered again because it is now a total loss vehicle. I asked them to close this account because they did not accept the offer from XXXX for me to receive a check for my damages. They did not want to sign over the title because of my account status. The truck is not drivable and is parked due to tail end hit, and gas tank leaking fluid.

But it was n't I was going to have to pay over {$16000.00}. I was rushed through the paperwork via computor signing of the contract. The vehicle had issues and was n't worth what I was charged. It is/was a lemon. It kept breaking down on my. This last time it broke down out of state. Assuming the fuel pump went out. But it would not start. This just 7 months after purchase. I 'm on XXXX and ca n't afford a high payment for a piece of junk. I could n't afford to keep getting it fixed. I contacted Credit Acceptance who finaced the vehicle and told them to go get it. They call with robo calls day and night even calling on Sundays, which I know is illegal. But I think they take advantage of people by ripping them off charging outrageous prices for vehicles they know are n't worth the prices they are upping them to and suckering you into signing the contracts. More so when you cant get but a few months use before it breaks down.

Vehicle was purchased from XXXX XXXX XXXX. The loan was through Credit Acceptance. This vehicle had issues from the very first day of purchase. Was pulled over minutes after purchase for not having working tail lights. After taking the vehicle back to have it fixed the mechanics wrecked the vehicle and busted a tail light out and didnt say anything. After noticing it we had to contact them to watch video footage and talking to the staff to find out what happened. The engine went completely out after that and I had to have the vehicle towed to the dealership. I spoke with XXXX directly and he asked me to call the lender and get a payoff amount to payoff the loan and email it to him. I gave him the amount over the phone and he asked me to also email it and he would handle it. I did several times and called several times after and he has never responded since then. He has ignored all calls and emails since. However the debt remains on my credit report. I was told that by the company that it was going to be paid off and would be removed. It is still on my credit as a negative item.

I originally sent letters to all 3 credit bureaus regarding inaccurate information I found on my report on XX/XX/21. Referencing an alledged account with credit acceptance and inquiries that were also unauthorized. The letters were all sent certified mail and verified as recieved. 3 weeks later I recieved letters from each bureau. XXXX notified that they have corrected the issue by deleting the referenced credit acceptance account from my account but have yet to remove inquiries. XXXX and XXXX have both claimed to have verified the information with the creditor as accurate. I have sent letters to both bureaus on XX/XX/21 requesting the method in which they verified those accounts and I am still waiting on response. Credit acceptance has not responded at all. I have attached a screenshot of this account on my report where you can clearly see this account has been RE-AGED by the creditor which is a clear violation of law. Obviously the processes and procedures of XXXX XXXX and Credit acceptance are all flawed and are not setup in a way to be accurate and fair to its consumers.

I purchased a car and used credit acceptance as the lender. This car was a piece of junk and has never worked. I tried to work something out with the dealer and the lender. The lender gave me some astronomical rate and the car dealership sold me the car with false hopes of a good working car. I knew the rate would be high but they totally took advantage of me. The car has been reporting 120 days late since XXXX of 2019. This is not true. This car is a piece of XXXX that they wouldn't even come get, as it's worth absolutely nothing. The lender or dealer hid a bunch of fees in this loan as well. This account, at this rate, will NEVER disappear from my credit report. I'm not for sure what else to do. I have sent them numerous letters and disputed this with the credit bureaus. Each time they just keep saying the information is accurate, which it is not. They are refusing to make this right. This is affecting me mentally and financially. I can not do anything with this on my credit report. they refuse to send me the info about the car, they refuse to do anything at this point.

The account with XXXX XXXX shows the following reporting information.

XXXX XX/XX/XXXX thru XX/XX/XXXX shows past due XXXX + XX/XX/XXXX account shows it charged off and started reporting again XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX shows XX/XX/XXXX thru XX/XX/XXXX negative reporting then starting in XX/XX/XXXX shows file being reported again. The credit bureau goes by the information provided by the creditor. They responded to the complaint that the file was never charged off. Credit Acceptance is not being truthful and their reporting it again has affected my credit score. The account was already reported being past due in XXXX I am confused as to how you can choose not to report for almost 3 years and now start to report again. This makes no sense to me and should be investigated.

Credit Acceptance Lawsuit I financed a vehicle with credit acceptance in 2021. The price for the vehicle was {$18000.00}. I paid {$9600.00} on the vehicle so far which includes my down payment. Due to extremely high interest and late fees the balance I owe credit acceptance now is {$29000.00}! The vehicle 's value is only {$9000.00}! I have paid them almost {$10000.00} for this vehicle and they still want an additional {$29000.00} which is insane. I need help! I can not afford this, I never could afford this. I was denied by 8 other loan companies due to my low credit score and low income. Credit acceptance set me up for failure when they gave me this loan with an interest rate of 22.99 %. I make less than {$20000.00} a year. I could never afford this loan. They repossessed my vehicle 3 times already and charged me a large amount of fees for it. My credit score has decreased tremendously. I also have spent almost {$3000.00} on repairs for this vehicle. This loan is ruining my life, I need help desperately, I am a single mother with low income and I can not afford a lawyer.

This car had mechanical issues worth more than the car was worth. I advised the lender to come pick up the car in early XXXX. They are still reporting this loan as open and not showing it as a repo ( whether voluntary or not ) they are currently reporting different statuses depending on which bureau report you look at. One says im 120 days past due the other says 180 days past due. The last reporting isn't even correct as its from XX/XX/2020 and we are now in XXXX. I have tried to resolve this via the credit bureaus/ creditor to no avail. They are reporting current late payments which makes it look like I am STILL neglecting to pay on a open vehicle which is not the case. the payment history is also all over the placed. according to the FCRA all reporting should be accurate and up to date, which this account shows neither. It shows I have a current payment due and I do not. I am requesting that the company remove this account from my credit as the damage they are doing with conitinually reporting these super past due payments and that is highly damaging to my credit.

I have been a Credit Acceptance Corporation customer since XXXX and have been making my payments since XX/XX/XXXX on time, even earlier than due date. I sent the corporation a certified goodwill letter asking if they could remove the negative report from my credit file ( repossession ) as though I still have possession of the vehicle and I've been paying every payment on time. I'm seeing that they removed the remarks but it was recently added back on my credit. They are also reporting that they took possession of the car and that the account is now closed, and that balance has increased to the credit bureaus all of this is incorrect. They are reporting negative incorrect information to the credit bureaus. My account is not closed and I have not missed any payments. This is such an inconvenience to me and its a shame that they do this to loyal customers. I've been trying to get a hold of someone but I've been unable to speak to a representative. They have not called or sent any letters to me or communicated in anyway. Please investigate to look into this matter thank you.

Last XX/XX/XXXX, I acquired a car through the financial company. The amount that was agreed to pay was {$17000.00} plus the XXXX that were given in the firm a total of XXXX 1 car of XXXX excessive but we accepted After two years and seeing the need not being able to pay the car a year and a half we decided to return the company, he offered the possibility of giving it to him to sell it at auction and thus be able to reduce the debt To call to let us know how the situation is. The surprise is that they tell us that that {$20000.00} car was sold for XXXX, we understand that it is a scam and also that the debt we have with them amounts to {$25000.00} as it can be after paying {$7500.00} of the XXXX and the car and even seeing the double they tell us that the problem is that the interest is more than 25 % which they never explained to us We understand that We can pay our report. It's damaged. They don't want to sell us more cars at any dealership and the only solution they give us is to make a five-year payment plan and continue paying interest. Honestly, a scam and abusive

We bought our vehicle from a car lot in XXXX Oklahoma we are Missouri residents we tagged and the registration is in Missouri. Our vehicle was repossessed XX/XX/2023. We paid a total of {$1700.00} and was set up on a payment plan to get the vehicle back a {$300.00} repossession fee was added to the account. On XX/XX/XXXX after numerous phone calls my wife calls back and they had cancelled our payment arrangement and they had taken off the {$300.00} repossession fee and the same day added that same fee back on the account. During that call my wife asked for a copy of the right to cure letter and they were supposed to mail a copy of that letter. On XX/XX/XXXX my wife calls again to credit acceptance about the right to cure letter the gentleman informed her that since we bought the vehicle in Oklahoma and that the loan contract was made in Oklahoma that they didnt have to send one for the repossession. We are wanting to know being Missouri residents dont we fall under Missouri law and that the right to cure letter should have been mailed or do we fall under Oklahoma law.

Credit Acceptance Corporat ion Charges betw een {$4.00} and {$12.00} to process your payments each month. I mail my payment as a cashiers check every month. This is a high interest loan because I have less than perfect credit due to hardships but I have not defaulted on my loan. Last month the check was returned to me as undeliverable so I sent it again. I sent it the day before it was due this mont h ( so it will have the postmark date on it ) a nd because of the holiday they have not received it. They call once per hour while I 'm at work and if I answer to tell them they get aggressive and tell me " then I should not have answered. '' The payment is not ev en one week late an d they start harassing, threatening to disable the vehicle and tow it. They actually towed it once and I had to pay an additional {$700.00} to get it back and get a bus to the neighboring state to pick it up. All while charging {$4.00} - {$12.00} to proccess your payment and not allowing any modern method to pay your bill ( electro nic deposit, not charging you to pay bill, etc ).

I purchased a vehicle from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX through Credit Acceptance corporation last XXXX, XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX the car stopped working while I was in it. A mechanic diagnosed the car with having an illegal gps starter disabling device on it and this was the cause of it not working. I contacted both parties the dealership and the finance company, XXXX XXXX and Credit acceptance. XXXX XXXXXXXX told me that they dont use gps trackers and I should contact Credit acceptance. Credit Acceptance told me that they dont use gps trackers either and I should contact the dealership. When shown pictures of the gps device the dealership said they didnt put it there. I told them if they didnt they shouldve removed it before selling me the car. They said they werent responsible for removing it. Credit acceptance hasnt responded to me in over a week. Only saying they dont use gps devices anymore. Every time I call they say my case is being reviewed and someone will be in touch. I feel there is some shady dealings happening and they are both working hand in hand with each other.

I finance my car through Credit Acceptance Corporation. Over the past couple of years, this company has REPEATEDLY reported me for nonpayment & late payments and not only did this company make reports of missed/late payments, they made the same report for each multiple times! I have been disputing false reporting by this company to all credit bureaus, however, they still remain. For the times in which I have been late/delinquent in making payments, I was informed that due to the pandemic, this would not be reported. At a time in which every day, hardworking individuals, such as myself, were living through economic turmoil, this gesture was astonishingly symbolic! I felt confident in knowing I was doing business with a company that genuinely cared for their customers. Only later, upon further investigation, would I come to see that they had been deceitful. Not only were the payment/nonpayments reported, theyd been reporting each one repeatedly in the same timeframe. I cant begin to state the imperative, negative impact my credit score and history now has as a result.

1666b. Timing of payments ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by SECTION 1637 ( B ) OF THIS TITLE is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. ( b ) Grace period If an open end consumer credit plan provides a time period within which an obligor may repay any portion of the credit extended without incurring an additional finance charge, such additional finance charge may not be imposed with respect to such portion of the credit extended for the billing cycle of which such period is a part, unless a statement which includes the amount upon which the finance charge for the period is based was mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the date specified in the statement by which payment must be made in order to avoid imposition of that finance charge.

My husband I obtained an auto loan through this company and kept the account current. On or about XXXX XXXX, 2016 the vehicle was involved in a fire and was deemed a total loss. At this time the auto loan had a balance of {$7300.00} My primary insurance issued a payment on or about XXXX XXXX in the amount of {$3900.00}. Gap insurance issued a payment on or about XXXX XXXX in the amount of {$2900.00}. Afterwards, I had made several attempts to set up payment arrangements that were satisfactory to XXXX parties ; unfortunately they were unable to accommodate a payment plan without issuing a derogatory mark on my credit report. When I called to today, XXXX XXXX, 2016, to pay the full balance they informed me that they reported that my payments were XXXX days past due. I stated that it has only been XXXX days since they received a payment and I believe that there is 30 days to make a payment since the last payment, so if anything I would be XXXX days past due. I paid the balance in full in an effort to minimize the impact that this account will have on my credit report.

Purchased a car from a dealership in 2015. I voluntary surrendered the car because I was sold a lemon ( a bad car ). It started having problems immediately after purchase. The car dealership has since closed down ( no longer in service ). I can not speak to someone at the dealership about this. However, the loan was with the company XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX will not remove the file off my credit report. I have spoken to someone from XXXX XXXX a few months ago and offered to settle the debt if they delete the file from my credit report. XXXX XXXX refused the offer. They also mentioned that the car was sold at auction. I do not feel I should be responsible for the car loan anymore. Because the credit company ( XXXX XXXX ), sold the car at auction, and because the dealership where the car was purchased has since shut down, and because XXXX XXXX refused a settlement on a car that had bad mechanical issues and on something that they resold. I have had this following me on my credit report since 2015. And have attempted various methods to get the company to remove the debt.

Credit Acceptance has been improperly reporting missed payments every month to the credit agencies which is hurting my credit horribly. I had a repo back in XXXX due to the pandemic I had got laid off and couldn't afford my payments anymore. They took my car and then sold it and I still owed a little over 5k. From then till now they are now stating that I owe {$11000.00} and counting as it is increasing every month which I do not know why as they have not communicated anything with me. I believe they are not being fair by charging me over double the original amount owed after the repossession was made and now they are not only hurting my credit but affecting my life as I an unable to apply for certain things due to this account. This company has repeatedly abused the rights to every customer they have or had. As you can verify they have even been sued many times for violating peoples rights and most of whom are minorities just like me. This is wrong, unfair, and unjust to charge someone over double of what they owe in an unjustifiably, and abusive manner.

I submitted a complaint on this website in XXXX. I received correspondence with how I would like for this to be resolved. I received my points back but the late payment still applies on my report. This is the complaint. Credit acceptance stated that on XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX that did a auto pay for my car loan and the bank rejected it. I provided documentation that money was in my account and that the bank never rejected any money nor was a freeze on my card. The bank rep stated that CA most likely made an error because they would not have rejected my payment. Ive had this loan since XXXX and have not been late. This company has no compassionate even during a pandemic. I owe almost XXXX on this car loan. I need for them to to take responsibility to their error. I thought it was paid because all of my auto pays automatically are paid with no issue. CA notified me at the end of XXXX to tell me that payment was not received. I immediately paid worth the same card. I need for this late payment to be removed. Im trying to avoid lawyer and court fees but thats the next step.

Credit acceptance appears to have violated the terms of the contract for an auto loan and is reporting a fraudulent balance to all credit reporting agencies. Documentation from Credit Acceptance shows conflicting information regarding the repossession costs, which results in an unconfirmed the balance on the account. In addition, the credit for GAP insurance coverage that was applied to the balance on the account appears to be in violation of the contract and Ohio law. Enclosed document - Page 1 has reference to GAP insurance, Page 2 has reference to repo costs ( which do not match costs on page 4 ), Page 2 has reference to GAP insurance credit, Page 3 has reference to sale of car at XXXX XXXX, Page 4 has reference to repo costs ( which does not match costs on page 8 ) To further investigate the fraudulent balance, I am requesting the following documentation : - Proof of sale of the repossessed automobile from XXXX XXXX XXXX. This means a document from XXXX XXXX XXXX, not a document from Credit Acceptance. - GAP contract issued by the provider for GAP insurance

I would like to obtain help with understanding how my finance company is calculating payments and the amount of time a payment is late. in XXXX I was {$640.00} behind on my payment. On XXXX XXXX my vehicle was reposessed. On XXXX XXXX I paid {$750.00} to have my car returned. That according to them left me awith a {$100.00} credit. A few days later they were charged a {$250.00} repo fee. That left {$150.00} of repo fee, not payment owed. I then made payment for XXXX on XXXX XXXX. of my standard payment of XXXX. Still leaving the repo fee owed. I am not disputing owing the repo fee, I just dont feel that the fee should be accounted into my days behind on my regular payment as they are XXXX seperate items. Since the company is counting the repo fee as a past due payment, they are claimim=ng that my entire payment is more than 40 days past due, which is not the case. My standard payment of XXXX was due on XXXX XXXX when I paid XXXX payment but because they are counting repo fee as part of my payment, they are unwilling to offer an extention for my standard payment.

XXXX Credit Acceptance Corp worked along with XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX to provide financing for my vehicle purchased on XX/XX/2019. There were undisclosed fees and services added to my contract which I did not request nor did the dealer disclose. When I was able to obtain a copy of my contract which someone other than myself electronically signed I saw the additional charges and addressed this with the dealership and Credit Acceptance. A service Contract fee of {$1700.00} was added and a debt cancellation fee of {$580.00} was also added and other charges and amounts paid itemized at {$2400.00} yet no explanation of what these charges are. I asked the dealership to confirm the additional services were removed and asked for a revised contract and my calls continued to get ignored. Credit Acceptance who funded the loan told me they could not do anything about it. I was eventually able to obtain the Service Contract information through XXXX XXXX XXXX and was advised by the company there was no active policy showing for my VIN or under my personal information provided.

I was told to have the car towed to the dealer and have them to look at it to see if it was defective. If it was n't I would have to pay for whatever was wrong with the car.

the vehicle i financed through Credit Acceptance Corporation was repossessed on XX/XX/2018. XXXX XXXX XXXX require that a Creditor conduct the sale of repossessed vehicle in a commercially acceptable manner. The address on file for the load i took out was my father 's address. they filed the law suit under my mother 's address. she received the court summons. I was unaware of how to proceed moving forward. I submitted an answer to my complaint and waited for a response at my fathers address. my mother moved and credit acceptance and the courts continued to send notices to the address my mother no longer lived at. this resulted in the judge granting credit acceptance the judgement. The judge wont hear me out and Credit acceptance is breaking the law in continuing to report false information and pursue monetary amounts that it is not entitled to. I can share my motion and more details with whomever can help me. everyone keeps telling me bankruptcy is the only way to make this go away and I know for a fact that Credit Acceptance has violated my consumer rights.

In or around XXXX of XXXX I lost my job due to Covid 19. I started to fall short on funds so I contacted a representative from Credit Acceptances customer service department and told them about my job loss and falling hard on funds and they instructed me to jus pay as I could and they wouldnt be sending anyone out to repossess the car nor would it effect my credit profile. Months later Im caught up on all payments put have 7 late payments on my credit report. Ive contacted then several times even tried disputing through the credit bureaus and its still reporting on my credit and Im not really getting a clear response from credit acceptance as to why. Ive even recently sent goodwill letters to the company asking them to forgive me for my late payments and Im still awaiting a response. This is the only thing effecting my credit profile and holding me back from purchasing my home in XXXX. Even with this issue I still would recommend this company to others as it is a great way to build credit with an auto loan. Im hoping we can get this matter resolved promptly.

I filed a dispute via XXXX against Credit Acceptance Corp on XX/XX/20. I explained that I felt my balance was going up although I had made payments over what I was required to pay. Credit Acceptance Corp later responded stating that reported the information has certified to XXXX that the information is accurate. Roughly two weeks later, they reported that I was 120 days past due. Although, in the months prior all my payments we reported as on time. I contacted customer service and asked why the didnt report it previously, because according to the FDCPA, they were to report accurate information. I also asked why I was past due and they said because I have fees. After closer inspection I realized they have been posting my payments mostly to their fees and not the principal so they can charge me and collect more interest. So, even though they told me to raise the payments to get caught up they confirmed the payments have nothing to due with their reporting standards for credit reporting. This is a very deceitful practice and should is illegal. Please advise.

XXXX is continuing to report an account Credit Acceptance Corporation in the amount of {$4800.00} that is a result of identity theft on to my credit file. I have informed XXXX that this account needs to be deleted blocked and investigated but yet they have failed to do their due diligence on this above referenced account. I have also contacted Credit Acceptance Corporation and this company can not provide a signed application bearing my signature nor a contract stating that I have had any obligation with them. I have never dealt with Credit Acceptance so how in the heck can XXXX be possibly verifying and validating anything when the company itself can't provide me with any information. They have not provided competent evidence bearing my signature, showing that I have or ever had some contractual obligation to pay you or the original creditor. I will be forced to sue XXXX and Credit Acceptance Corporation for 1. ) Defamation 2. ) Negligent Enablement of Identity Fraud 3. ) Violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act if this is not removed immediately.

In addition to charging 22.99 % interest, which I thought was usury and therefore illegal, Credit Acceptance has added over {$500.00} to what I owe, and refused to explain why. I openly entered into the agreement, so I am not looking for a remedy for the crime of usury. I have been making extra payments nearly every month for eleven months. According to several amortization calculators that I have used I should owe {$820.00} effective XX/XX/XXXX. According to the person who I spoke with on the phone on XX/XX/XXXX, my payoff balance as of XX/XX/XXXX will be {$1300.00} and will continue to increase until paid after that date. I previously called and asked for a breakdown of what I have paid and what portion of the payments went to interest and what part to principle. They sent me a list of the payments that they have received. It agrees with my records, but they did not explain the difference in our calculations of a payoff amount. I think I made myself more clear to the person I spoke to on XX/XX/XXXX, and he refused to send me any additional information.

Credit Acceptance XXXX and tin used to financially abuse my credit report by constantly putting on and taking off late payments that were made in compliance with the change of payment date from the XXXX to the XXXX during the pandemic. Within the past 30 days they have made six changes to my credit report as my loan officer has been documenting everything like I have. They have recently blocked my account balance from being shown after they lied to the credit bureau that my balance was over {$2900.00}. I can not speak to this company because their representatives are uneducated disrespectful southern customer service representatives that are trained in collections not customer service. My Exhusband is responsible for this account, I paid two months out of my own money and instead of updating the balance they reported the balance almost twice as much to the credit bureaus. They know exactly what theyre doing it is one lady that handles this account and I would like to know her legal name. Consumer finance needs to investigate this company to the very end.

I've already forwarded this to the New York Attorney General 's Office. * Loan is paid off. XXXX Attorney General, Regarding your lawsuit against Credit Acceptance Corporation, I bought a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX from XXXX XXXX in XXXX, LA on or about XX/XX/XXXX. VIN # XXXX. Credit Acceptance Corp was my lender. The vehicle 's sticker price was around {$17000.00}. I gave the used car dealership ( XXXX XXXX ) approximately {$10000.00} for a down payment, as I didn't want to pay for the vehicle for too long. By the time the paperwork was drawn up, said used car dealership had informed me that XXXX had added a substantial amount to the principal balance and that they, the used car dealership, couldn't do anything about it. After giving said dealership {$10000.00} for a down payment on {$17000.00}, the principle balance of the vehicle had ballooned to a whopping approximate amount of {$20000.00}. " The vehicle motor just went out in XXXX XXXX. And I am currently without transportation right now. '' Credit Acceptance Corporation Account # XXXX

On XX/XX/XXXX I purchased the XXXX XXXX XXXX at XXXXXXXX XXXX in XXXX MD. It is financed through Credit Acceptance Corporation. The purchase price was roughly {$18000.00}. 10 months later, as in today, XX/XX/XXXX, the vehicle price has almost doubled. I know owe over {$32000.00} on this vehicle. After much research, there are 3 recalls on these cars, as well. Specifically, my car had a recall on the airbags. I no longer feel safe driving this vehicle. I feel like I am going to be stuck in this vehicle for life and I feel as though Credit Acceptance practices predatory lending especially to the impoverished and uneducated. Modern day snake oil salesmen/corporation/company . Reading all the consumer complaints, etc. I feel as though I've been sentenced to a death loan. Meaning I will be paying this vehicle off until I die, or I will die in this vehicle because of the recall. This is completely unfair and as a consumer the amount of information presented to " just sign '' is overwhelming. Credit Acceptance is a death trap. Do NOT finance with them.

I had an account go into collections over 2 years ago and recently it now on my credit report as an open account and missed payments are being marked and the balance for the account is increasing, I did not give permission and had no knowledge of it be reopened. My credit score is constantly going down now because of payment history and missed payments Saying I am 180 days passed due from this account that was placed for collections on XX/XX/2018. My reasons ; one it resets the life of the account/debt so takes longer to age off credit, it holds the consumer back not able to open new accounts/credit due to credit score and payment history, Old debt looks like new debt. Hurts consumers credit making it almost impossible to raise credit score without paying off old debt. It makes consumer feel pressured, harassed, held back, oppressed, and unable to succeed. Some jobs like the one I am going to be applying to after I finish XXXX XXXX in 6 months check credit scores therefore making it harder to get a job that would help me pay off debts that I may owe.

When the COVID-19 pandemic first occurred I called the company, Credit Acceptance, when I first lost my job and they told me that the only thing that could be done for me is they would erase late payments. So as soon I as I received any financial assistance I made sure it was one of the first bills I took care of because it was showing up as a late account on my credit report. That was in XXXX. In XXXX the account was up to date. I kept checking my credit report and it has not been updated since XX/XX/XXXX. I have been in contact with them 4 different times and they have given me different answers every time. I called XX/XX/XXXX and they told me there was a freeze on my account and they were going to take it off so my credit would be reported on the XXXX on XXXX. I then received an email XX/XX/XXXX and it said they were not reporting until XX/XX/XXXX. Now they just told me I have to fill out a form to take the freeze off. I also have disputed this with each of the credit bureaus and they told me the information was accurate and nothing about a freeze.

I have a concern about Credit Acceptance Corporation Auto Finance. my vehicle was involved in a auto accident back on XX/XX/2019. It was reported as a total loss to the company, CAC refused to let the GAP pay the remaining portion for the total loss claim. So now the account has been sitting with an unpaid balance of {$14000.00}, monthly payment reports on my credit report as {$0.00}. This account is well over 180 days past due and is no longer handle by CAC, they have an outside law firm handling this file for them and the refuse to either have it updated or removed from my credit report. They still have the account as open and active in their company but not handling the matter at hand. I asked them several times to have this matter removed or corrected. I was told by a representative that they can continue to keep my account open as long as they want to and have another agency collect on it for them. By law I know after 180 days of no payment the account has to be reported as charged off or closed. This company refuse to do so just to keep it open.

So I refinanced this loan but I wish I had refinanced sooner but they were giving me inaccurate information about refinancing. I refinanced the loan with XXXX and I wish I had done it sooner. I got a call from a collection agency stating that I owed a small balance. I sent them a certified letter asking why they say I owed a balance when I had a letter stating that my account was paid in full. I received another letter from Credit Acceptance stating that my account was paid in Full in XX/XX/XXXX. But in XX/XX/XXXX they reported to all 3 credit bureaus that the account is in collections. The company then sent me another letter stating that my account was paid in full. The company even sent me a refund check for {$47.00} in over payment to my account. My credit report did not show any late payments before they sent this straight to collections and it is now it is still on all of my reports even though I have been disputing it and it caused me to be denied another car loan.

I have been talked to very inhumane regarding my account. I am constantly being threatened by my car being deactivated. I am constantly asked if someone can pay for me. If that was possible, I would not be behind. Even though my sister cosigned with me, she does not help me at all with this even though she knows my situation. I am on my own right now. I am daily looking for work so I can get back on track with you all. This is the second vehicle that I have purchased through Credit Acceptance and I had no problem with my previous purchase. I want to keep my car but I need some assistance right now and no one in the organization is willing to assist me or work with me except for demanding that I make a payment. I need a deferment so I can get back on track and not ruin my sister 's credit because that is her main concern right now. I appreciate any assistance you can give me.

The company agreed to remove late payments for Covid-19 the months of XXXX and XX/XX/2021 due to severity which was never resolved. In addition, the company also confirmed that an automatic payment method was successfully added to my account. After having doing so, instead a 30 day late payment was reported to all credit bureaus negatively impacting my report. After contacting the company in attempts to resolve the matter the company confirmed admitting that their automatic payment processing had been compromised and that they would resolve this issue and that a new payment company would take over because other customers experienced the same issue. The company failed to notify their customers of the processing issues to begin with resulting in severe negative impact on my report. The reporting from this incident occurred on XX/XX/2021 to credit bureaus .This issue has not been resolved. This is an escalation for removal of ALL late payments. As a sole provider the me and my family are severely impacted and caused damage to my financial reputation.

CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPOR XXXX XXXX XXXX CREDIT DISPUTE DEPT XXXX, MI XXXX The above referenced company does not provide any type of verification of account history, payments etc. I have made my payments that apparently, a few were not applied accordingly causing an issue. Without receiving any type of monthly statement or access to online account I was not aware of an issue until I called in for verification. This account is set up on biweekly payments but because of the initial issue, it is continuously running behind. This is only adding late fees and additional interest I should not be responsible to pay. I have no idea of what my balance is or when my payments post. I contacted this company to get assistance on updating the account and was told there was nothing they could do until I pay the past due amount. I make my full payment every month. This is outrageous that they can bill me for late fees and additional interest without providing me access to see the activity on my own account. They are reporting this account as constantly delinquent.

My FICO score dramatically decreased due to credit acceptance Corp reporting 30 days past due on my account. Their system reflects I paid XXXX payment XX/XX/20 when in fact it was paid XX/XX/20 at XXXX XXXX eastern time. I disputed with credit bureau and made numerous attempts to reach them to attempt a goodwill deletion to no avail. The payment was not more than 30 days due to the pandemic I tried my best to pay on time and in the 45 months thus far with my loan I have never been late. I have 7 months left and asked them to please resolve this as I consider myself a good customer they simply added a natural disaster code on my report which did absolutely nothing for my score. I believe my payment did not reach the new billing cycle and their reporting is not correct and based on my payment history they should work with me. I will have paid them XXXX for a car that was only XXXX due to high interest rates however I never complained and have always paid them every month and not they will not help me in a time where the whole country is struggling.

On XX/XX/XXXX my vehicle was repossessed from my job. In XX/XX/XXXX I paid XXXX because my fridge went out. Not their problem. I was informed I needed {$1200.00} to get my car back. I scuffled up {$900.00} and I'm grateful that they taken it however every month I auto pay my car note. If I have been carrying over a late fee of {$23.00} for ( 7 ) months {$160.00}. {$320.00} from XX/XX/XXXX plus the {$160.00} totals {$490.00}. My car note would have come out on the XXXX but they included it in the repo plus {$300.00} for towing fee. I have been devastated every since. I don't understand. I know what part I played in it but I got NO documentation about this matter. Thank XXXX some people understood that I am an XXXX and couldn't make it without my vehicle. I am including all my bank statements as proof of payments. Credit Acceptance should have better business practice. I believe I am the first person to get a repo for a partial car note and late fees. Also XXXX XXXX XXXX needs customer service classes and should consider who they are in bed with.

Purchased a car XX/XX/XXXX and credit acceptance corp was my finance company. Same purchased car caught fire XX/XX/XXXX. Went to the dealer I purchased from when the engine first started knocking and was sent down the street to another dealer that honors my extended warranty but to no avail issue was not fixed and by the next morning while driving the car back to the dealer it caught fire and almost killed my daughter and I had I not pulled over and exited the car when it started to smoke. After calling the dealer and telling them what happened I was told Im sorry to hear that but your own your own. Extended warranty told me they dont cover fire. I was sue by credit acceptance XXXX with no recollection since the court notice was placed on my door I used to live at but that is acceptable as being served in Maryland so of course they won the lawsuit. My wages have been being garnished since XX/XX/XXXX up until I lost my job XX/XX/XXXX and since the entire time the loan is still on my credit report as open and 180+ days late reported every month!!!

I purchased a vehicle from a dealership in XXXX, NJ called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. The bank that approved me for the loan was Credit Acceptance. As of today it is now well over 60 days since the date of purchase XX/XX/21. The dealership engaged in unfair and deceptive business practices, I still do not have plates for my vehicle. The bank Credit Acceptance has not only failed to obtain the vehicle title from the dealership, they have also engaged in unfair and deceptive business practices. Credit Acceptance has violated my consumer rights by violating the FCRA. They have reported a vehicle loan on my credit report insinuating that I am paying them for a car that THEY DO NOT LEGALLY OWN. The bank has already paid the dealership for the car. THE TITLE WAS NEVER GIVEN TO ME, I WAS NEVER LISTED AS THE OWNER/ FINANCER OF THE CAR NOR WAS CREDIT ACCEPTANCE LISTED AS THE LIEN HOLDERS. THIS ACCOUNT SHOULD NOT BE ON MY CREDIT REPORT, NOR SHOULD I BE MADE RESPONSIBLE FOR PAYMENTS UNTIL THE BANK HAS OBTAINED THE TITLE AND ARE LISTED AS THE LIEN HOLDERS.

I have submitted multiple disputes on my account to Credit Acceptance Corp relating to the reporting of the account. The status shows as in repossession -- this vehicle was voluntarily surrendered in 2015 and has been reporting incorrectly for years. The last payment date is incorrect -- they are using the date the vehicle sold at auction and the proceeds were applied when that was not a voluntary payment. The last payment date reported on a credit report is to be the last voluntary payment. The account closed date is incorrect -- it should have been reported as closed on the date of voluntary surrender. The balance is incorrect -- they are continuing to report this account as if it is still open and payments are due. The payment history is incorrect -- it should no longer be showing monthly payments are due/past due as no monthly payments are due on the account -- it should have been charged off long ago. The balance is incorrect -- somehow it increased in the last month! I am going to take legal action if these items are not remediated.

Trick/Ask without prompting or guidance if the consumer would like their number removed from their system to initiate a legal process which typically starts once a consumer asks to not be contacted. will cold call, lie about payment dates and arrangements made then hang up once given dates and times of said agreements.

This company failed to comply with FCRA regulations and notify me that they have/would be/or could report derogatory information to all three consumer reporting bureaus. Despite having an address on file, references on file, an email address on file and an additional authorized third party on file they made no diligent efforts to notify me of this prior to the damages being caused. Their failure to uphold their responsibilities caused me to lose a house I was set to close on valued at {$190000.00} in addition to appraisal and inspection fees. Not to mention, they continuously attempted to draw on a closed checking account and I incurred expenses with my financial institution as a result. I attempted to see if they would remedy this by a good will gesture as I have never been in default before and this was an isolated incident but they replied with " they tried to call me and its my own fault ''. I further explained to them the circumstances surrounding the breakdown in communication and they would not reasonably reach a civil conclusion.

They scam me and thousands of other New Yorkers, but they will not mediate my case individually. I have to seek counsel, the dealership who sold me the vehicle is responsible for scam. Also, the price was not XXXX the way it was leased it was only XXXX. I had full coverage insurance on both vehicles, one vehicle was repossessed and ruined my credit.

Beginning in XX/XX/XXXX our payments have been showing delinquent even though our account is set on auto-pay through the bank. In XX/XX/XXXX we asked for a payment arrangement on our account due to having to have work done on our car. We were never told by Credit Acceptance Corporation that our account would be reported as past due because we requested a payment arrangement. When we pulled our credit report, it should that our payments are reporting past due every month from XX/XX/XXXX until this very day. We also notice that in XX/XX/XXXX when a payment arrangement was placed on the account it showed that we missed a payment. We were never told that payment arrangements would show our account as delinquent. We pay extra every month on our car note even before the payment arrangement was requested. Our payments are {$350.00} per month and we pay {$440.00} per month since XX/XX/XXXX. This is a joint account and it appears this way on both of our credit reports. This is preventing us from trading our car in or purchasing a new car.

I am writing to file a complaint against Credit Acceptance Corporation for continuing to pursue a debt that I have already been released from. On XX/XX/2019, I received a garnishment release letter from your company, which stated that I was released from any liability for the debt in question. Despite this letter, your company has continued to report inaccuracies on my credit report, contacted me regarding the debt, and has even threatened legal action if I do not pay it. This is unacceptable and goes against the terms of the garnishment release letter. I demand that Credit Acceptance Corporation immediately cease all attempts to collect this debt from me, as I have been released from any liability. Furthermore, I expect an apology for the stress and anxiety that your continued attempts to collect this debt have caused me. If I receive any further communication regarding this matter, or if there is any negative impact on my credit score as a result of your actions, I will take appropriate legal action against your company.

XXXX from the complaint department has been handling my complaint. She is very unprofessional, not knowledgeable at all and refused to get me a supervisor when I demanded one several times on more than one day. Everytime I call credit acceptance they route me to XXXX and its unbelievable that someone so incompetent of their job is handling my complaint in the first place when I have asked for supervisors who are more knowledgeable of this situation. I no longer have the vehicle it was sold in XXXX the account is suppose to report CLOSED due to voluntary repossession. XXXX stated that there is nothing that they can do and to contact XXXX. XXXX stated that I have to contact credit acceptance. No one is helping me. This is my 2nd complaint.

On XX/XX/2020 my car was totaled out. On XX/XX/2020 the insurance company responsible paid {$8800.00} for the vehicle. The total amount due was {$12000.00}. They have also received payments of : {$570.00}, {$740.00}, {$2200.00}. All of this equals the total amount for the car but instead of them applying the money to the vehicle balance they applied it to the finance charges and saying I still owe money on the vehicle. I have been calling 2 to 3 times a week about my account ever since XX/XX/2020. They refuse to let me speak with a supervisor. I also have requested a payment history so I could view how they have been applying the payments and they refuse to send it me. They also then tell me I have until XXXX XXXX to pay off the remaining balance, or I will be responsible for paying the finance charges which is at least {$9000.00}. Also they are adding money on to the balance every week. From last week I went from owing {$1000.00} to now owing {$1200.00}. When I asked what the extra charges are for, I was told finance charges.

I purchased a used car ( my first car ), I was scammed. The vehicle broke down on me and the company I brought it from wasn't trying to help at all. I was charged XXXX for a used XXXX XXXX with XXXX miles on it. I had no clue about buying cars. I kept trying to refinance and no one not even credit acceptance would refinance. The car ended up breaking completely down. I willingly told them to come get the car, after I had already paid it down to about XXXX. They took the car and resold it for ( how much I don't know ) but they never took that balance off my loan. This was in XXXX. Here we are in XXXX and this company is still falsely reporting to the credit bureau that I'm missing payments. They closed the loan every time I call and have my lawyer call and then reopen it and say I'm missed a payment constantly damaging my credit. They have been doing this for years. It has to stop. I never agreed to another payment against after I have the vehicle back and they are constantly reporting false information to the credit bureau.

I submitted a 1099C to the company " Credit Acceptance '', which was mailed back as accepted. I called the company several times between XX/XX/2023 and XX/XX/2023. Today I called several times so that I could speak with the compliance department as advised by a representative yesterday. The representative that I spoke to today transferred me to the compliance department where I spoke to a person named XXXX, who would not give me her last name and quoted her last initials and a number for her last name ( I am not sure if this was a recorded line ). XXXX was very intimidating, angry, deceiving, and aggressive while communicating to me that I owe a debt they ( Meaning your company ) do not accept 1099, and they would have never mailed me a return. She continued to be hostile and sassy, continuously saying this and telling me that you only accept payments. At this point, XXXX has caused a problem, because my 1099C was accepted and if the copy does not zero out my account they will be in violation of the federal income tax law.

In XX/XX/2022, I was behind 3 car payments which is about {$1600.00}. In late XX/XX/2022, I set up an automatic payment of {$500.00} bi-weekly. To date, I have paid over {$2000.00} and Credit Acceptance is still saying I owe about {$1500.00}. Why? Because my car payment, according to them, is due on the XXXX of each month and even though I set up and fulfilled my {$500.00} bi-weekly payments for the past XXXX weeks, the payments that are supposedly due on the XXXX of each month are rolled over. I'm also charged an additional {$24.00} a month for late fees. I called the company today and asked them if I can change the date of my scheduled payment ( not the auto payment I set up ). I was told no. How can a finance company not accommodate their customer? In addition, charging me extra late fees when I have been paying {$1000.00} monthly. At this rate, I will, as stated previously, die paying this debt off. This is my second complaint of predatory financial practices for Credit Acceptance. This is unfair should be illegal.

I have already disputed this with XXXX along with other negative accounts associated with the same people. This account is being reinvestigated and all other negative accounts that I have disputed as of XX/XX/XXXX have already been corrected from my credit report. My credit has dropped significantly due to these credit reporting errors that continue to be associated with my first and last name. The addresses and phone numbers on my credit report were corrected today XX/XX/XXXX and will be updated within the next 72 hours. These credit reporting issues occurred back in XXXX with the same people being associated to my credit report and I had to report all this to XXXX that many years ago. They are reappearing once again and this is negatively effecting my credit. The time and effort to dispute these accounts has been exhausting. Please take care of this ASAP!

I HAVE FILED MULTIPLE DISPUTES WITH CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORP. THIS ACCOUNT WAS OPENED BACK IN XXXX. HOWEVER, CREDIT ACCEPTANCE IS REPORTING INACCURATE INFORMATION ON THIS PREVIOUS AUTO LOAN. THEY ARE REPORTING ME ''LATE '' WHEN I HAVE NOT BEEN LATE ON THIS ACCOUNT. FURTHERMORE, I HAVE SPOKEN WITH A REPRESENTATIVE IN THEIR DISPUTE DEPT SEVERAL TIMES AND I WAS TOLD THEY WILL FIX THE ISSUE. THE ISSUE IS THEY ARE REPORTING NEGATIVE INFORMATION ON THIS ACCOUNT. ALSO, THEY ARE NOT UPDATING ANY PAYMENT STATUS?! I HAVE ALREADY PROVIDED BANK STATEMENTS THAT SUPPORT MY DISPUTE. ALSO, CREDIT ACCEPTANCE HAD SYSTEM ERRORS DURING THE PANDEMIC THAT PLAY IN FACT. AFTER, I REVIEWED A LETTER FROM THEM THIS MONTH XX/XX/XXXX. THEY ARE STILL NOT REPORTING ANY ACCURATE INFORMATION! THIS ACCOUNT IS NOT SHOWING ANY CREDIT HISTORY, TERMS, OR PAYMENT STATUS. THEY ARE ALL EMPTY! THIS NEGATIVE INFORMATION IS HURTING MY CREDIT SCORE XXXX POINTS FOR ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! THE CREDIT BUREAUS ( XXXX AND XXXX ) ARE HOLDING THEM ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIS MATTER.

Credit acceptance car loan company has reported my payment history incorrectly for over 2 years now. I have never missed a payment, my understanding was to have a one-time payment flipped over to the back of the loan that would have helped me from falling behind during COVID. That is not the case they have reported to all three credit bureaus saying that my payment history is XXXX payments missed with credit report reflecting XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX plus days late they have completely destroyed my credit due to this false reporting of my payment history. They have not come to a resolution over these facts and continue to report the loan incorrectly also was in still not even a payment behind and with no contact no forewarning came and repossessed the vehicle where we had to come out of pocket almost {$900.00} to get it out that very same day. I have all the documentation showing this. I need this erased completely off of my credit report to be able to even continue with my life and any sort of positive fashion whatsoever.

Hello, My name is XXXX and I need help... XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX : XXXX Start Date:XXXX Initial Balance : {$26000.00} Remaining Balance : {$17000.00} I put a down payment on a truck in XXXX, Within 5 months the engine went out. I went to XXXX dealership, and they say they put a new engine in the vehicle and apparently they didn't. Now not even 2 years later I need another engine on the vehicle. My vehicle doesn't run and I'm stuck paying a car note of XXXX a month. XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX IL is now telling me that my warranty has ran out but I already used the warranty 5 months after putting down a down payment. Now I have to file bankruptcy because I cant receive another loan since I already have one with Credit Acceptance. I feel its very unfair that XXXX XXXX are giving people vehicles that barely work and now where stuck and in debt because of it. Is it any way you can look into this situation? I just dont want anyway else to have to go through what I'm currently going through. They need to be shut down immediately.

Another thing, this was an illegal repossession followed by illegally reporting on my credit report ; this should have been investigated and corrected immediately. I tried contacting the XXXX Credit Bureaus requesting a complete payment history with this account for me to review the exact date on which the late payments and charge off were posted. Unfortunately, there was no successful resolution provided nor feedback heard from the concerned Bureaus. There was definitely an error on their part. There was definitely an error on their part.

XX/XX/2020I opened an auto loan with Credit Acceptance Corp in the amount of {$7100.00}. I made all payment the day before they were due. The auto company I purchased the vehicle from ended up going out of business in XXXX and never paid the lien that the XXXX XXXX XXXX had against the title therefore Credit acceptance was never able to obtain the title. I still made my payments until XX/XX/2020 when Credit Acceptance shut down my account and told me to continue dealing with the Ohio AG office ( which I did ). The vehicle is now back in possession of the original lienholder XXXX however even though Credit Acceptance closed my loan and returned my money that I paid, they reported to the credit bureaus as me being 120+ days late on a payment. Ive talked with them and they dismiss my concerns or tell me they will look into it and call me back. It needs to be removed from my report! They closed my loan, gave me my money back and the vehicle was never in their name or possession and has since been returned to XXXX! help!

On Friday XX/XX/XXXX at approximately XXXX Credit Acceptance Corp withdrew an unauthorized amount of {$390.00}. Again, on Friday XX/XX/XXXX at approximately XXXX, Credit Acceptance withdrew an authorized amount of {$500.00}. I called the customer service line at XXXX on Saturday, XX/XX/XXXX and was told by XXXX there was " nothing she can do for me to refund then near unauthorized {$900.00} taken '' from my bank account. XXXX proceeded to make me feel as though I was trying to scam the company, claiming " someone in your house processed two payments '' ( which I told her was not the case. Nobody was on the computer at this time ) and refused to help on the matter. XXXX then advised me to call my bank to dispute the charges as " there is nothing she could do ''. I proceeded to call my bank, XXXX XXXX, who were both surprised and alarmed Credit Acceptance would not assist me in the unauthorized payments. XXXX XXXX processed two disputes on both payments. I fully expect Credit Acceptance to accept these disputes.

The company in question : Credit Acceptance E Corp Purchased vehicle : ( XXXX XXXX ) Date : XX/XX/XXXX made on-time payments each month til XX/XX/XXXX. During such time, the engine went out in the vehicle. I voluntarily returned the car ; via being towed after an assessment was determined the vehicle would need an engine replacement. Upon returning the vehicle, the dealership returns {$3500.00} cash back to me in good faith. Unfortunately, the dealership is no longer in business, yet Credit Acceptance E Corp did receive the vehicle back and was able to make additional monies off the vehicle. In regards to my credit report, the reporting of this particular issue continues to disappear and reappear, also payments and the amount owed changes as well. I would like this account completely removed from my credit report until Credit Acceptance E Corp answers and replies in making this matter correct. I never refused to return the vehicle and I was told by the dealership that this would not be considered a repossession.

****NEW AND UPDATED INFORMATION REF XXXX The company has admitted to being willfully noncompliant to the FDCPA and Truth In Lending. I will be addressing multiple violations within the contract and response provided by Credit Acceptance. First, FEDERAL law says you have to RESPOND to my debt validation letter as well as my cease and desist, in which you have failed to do and you are showing that you are willfully being noncompliant with FEDERAL law. Second, Credit Acceptance is a debt collector as defined by the FDCPA, you sent monthly statements to my email implying that I owed a debt.. which is the definition of what a debt collector ; please reread the law. Third, 15 USC 1635 says that the consumer has the right to rescind a transaction in regards to ANY consumer credit transaction. You FAILED to provide me with my right to rescind pursuant to the Truth In Lending Act which constitutes fraud. You have also failed to disclose that pursuant to 15 USC 1605, my insurance could've been included in my finance charge.

Almost everyday from XX/XX/2022 Credit Acceptance has called 4 or more times a day. It doesn't matter if I communicate with them at all. The calls will keep coming until XXXX my time. I have no problem if a debt collector makes one or two calls. That would be reasonable. I have told them that the frequency they call at this point feels like harassment as it doesn't matter if I talk to them in the morning and they know I can't pay then. They will just keep calling. When confronting them about it they will just tell you to write a letter and hang up. XX/XX/2022 as an example between XXXX they called 4 times. If you think blocking the number could give you some temp relief, you would be wrong as they have several other numbers to call from. I work 12 hour days from XXXX. The lien I have for the car is past due as they made aware every single day except Sunday. I have made payments and still making payments to catch myself up. It's not like I'm 90 days past due or haven't been submitting any type of payments at all.

I have contacted Credit Acceptance numerous times & have gotten unsuccessful results. This company is reporting inaccurate information on my credit report also. The balance is false that they claim I owe. A lot of information they're reporting is false. The account balance was dismissed during the pandemic for insurance reasons that the collection company refuse to disclose to me. They also told me that they couldn't give me any information because they no longer have the account. Credit Acceptance told me that the account was sold to a law firm in XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) XXXX This number is non-reachable & I have no good contact for this company. Credit Acceptance is the ONLY collection listed on my credit report for this debt, NOT XXXX XXXX XXXX. This is illegal!!! This company is violating my consumer rights because they are reporting false information to the credit bureau on an account they claim they no longer have. Please DELETE this deceiving information/account from my credit report.

I have been back and forth with Credit Acceptance Corp for over 8 months regarding the same issue. They are reporting my account as closed and charged off when I am still making payments and my account is actually open. They also have my account showing that I was repossessed when my car was NEVER repossessed. For over 8 months I have disputed both those claims, I have spoken to over 10 supervisors, I have spoken to legal, and I have requested to speak to the credit reporting department over 15 times in which they claim that there is no number for that department. Each time I disputed the account and also faxed them over my credit reports showing that my account is being reported as closed, they responded back to me stating that everything is accurate when it is not. This is not only destroying my credit, but it is also hindering me from getting refinanced, a new car loan, or even obtaining any type of credit. This is all due to improper credit reporting and they choose not to rectify it with proof provided.

I received an initial written letter via mail regarding a debt I owe from XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX dated XX/XX/XXXX. This letter did not include the amount of debt I owe and only included a payment agreement, which I made over the phone. The letter states that I " have agreed to make monthly payments of {$500.00} with the first payment of {$1000.00} due by XX/XX/XXXX and a payment of {$500.00} due by the XX/XX/XXXXof each month following, until the balance owed is paid in full. Please note that 9 % interest does continue to accrue ''. I did not receive written verification of what the amount owed is, or how the interest is calculated. With the lack of written confirmation of exactly what I owe and how many payments of {$500.00} it will take to pay this debt off. I am concerned they have left this open-ended and have neglected to verify my payment plan with respect to how/when my balance will be paid in full, or what my starting balance is to begin with.I spoke with a representative about my concerns on XX/XX/XXXX.

Since then the company has reported my account as opened when this account has already been. Closed due to the repossession. They are charging me every month as if I have vehicle and as if I am past due Since giving up the car. They tell me the they don't have possession of the vehicle which I have spoken to the repo company and the loan company to voluntarily give up this vehicle. They are reporting to the credit bureau every month as a late payment over twenty four months are showing late since the repo.

After careful review of the electronic application forwarded to Credit Acceptance from the dealership XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, NC, I noticed Credit Acceptance changed the APR amount from when I signed the handwritten application of 7 % and after a few weeks the mailed application copy stated 22.9 %. Credit Acceptance can not verify nor confirm that the APR being charged is not an average APR for Car Loans which is Usury due to Unfair and the Illegal Interest Rate at 22.9 %. This APR has caused me harm to my credit report and finances. At the time, my credit scores remain well over 702. For example, for a Deep subprime car loan ( 300-500 ) is the average APR for used cars up to 20.58 %, my document was changed and forged increasing the APR to 22.99 %. Credit Acceptance can not confirm any different. This is usury that Credit Acceptance can not substantiate. Secondly, On XX/XX/2022, @ XXXX XXXX from Credit Acceptance compliance dept called my phone harassing me, when I submitted a cease and desist 2 years ago.

I asked for something in writing just to inform my mortgage company that this was an error and they stated that they were not able to put anything in writing because they don't have the proper format to write a letter and that I would have to dispute it.

Credit Acceptance is reporting late notations on my credit file for XX/XX/21, XX/XX/21, XX/XX/21 that need to be removed. Due to Covid, I lost some work that I relied on financially, and that really impacted me. I have an account with them for my auto loan and due to Covid, I called in to see what I could do because I was having some trouble paying the full amount. When I called they told me that I could have a payment arrangement set up for my hardship that would lower my payment by XXXX. I thought that was great until I looked at my credit. They never told me that with this arrangement, my account would be delinquent due to lesser payment, If I had known that I would have late payments, I would have never made that payment arrangement, I would have found a way to pay the full amount instead. So now I am screwed because the rep failed to explain the details of this arrangement. Upon finding out I paid it to bring the account up to date and am now making my full payment instead so it wasn't much of a help.

I had a loan with Credit Acceptance for a XXXX XXXX van I had financed. I traded in that vehicle with XXXX XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. I have confirmed with receipts that the dealer paid off this loan in full and received title to the van. Credit Acceptance never marked my loan as paid. This last spring they began reporting it to the credit bureaus as late and I now have multiple 180+ lates on my credit that are inaccurate, as I have not had this vehicle since XXXX and it was paid in full by the dealer. I have contacted Credit Acceptance multiple times and they ignore my requests for information. After a complaint to the XXXX they marked it as paid and sent me a title release. They also sent me an original copy of hte loan with a paid stamp on it where they crossed off XXXX as the paid date and put XX/XX/XXXX. This loan was fully satisfied in XXXX and the lates on my credit report are inaccurate and preventing me from refinancing my mortgage. I want these inccorrect lates removed from my report immediately.

Company refuses to stay in compliance with governor XXXX XXXX executive order banning any report of negative information to credit bureaus. This company has late payments on my credit report they refused to remove that cost me a {$400000.00} mortgage approval that got denied along with over a {$3000.00} a month XXXX House bill. I currently have four different attorneys reviewing this case that all the assured me that this is 100 % illegal and Im giving this company one last chance to update my credit report to stay in compliance with the executive order. This is abuse and they know it, this is a game to them but its about to end now and one hell of a legal battle. Not to mention they are reporting that my monthly payment is over {$900.00} per month. They know that my payment is {$450.00} per month. They have been abusing my credit utilization by not reporting my balance and also reporting a high monthly payment that they know is inaccurate because they are trying to harass and abuse my credit report.

In XX/XX/XXXX I received an auto loan from Credit Acceptance Corporation. Throughout the lifetime of the loan, I experienced numerous inaccuracies reported by Credit Acceptance on my credit report. Some of the inaccuracies were corrected after having to jump through hoops with Credit Acceptance Directly, yet additional inaccuracies continued to show up on my reports. Currently, I am in the process of purchasing a house and am reviewing the negative accounts on my credit reports and Credit Acceptance is one of them. After looking into the payment history, I realized that Credit Acceptance has multiple 30, 60, 90 day late payments on my account, including listing the account as late when closed ( which is impossible if the account was paid in full ). There was only one time that I was late on my loan with Credit Acceptance and that was in XX/XX/XXXX. I have tried to call CAC directly to correct the errors and their customer service team has refused to acknowledge that I ever had an account with them.

CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORP Account number XXXX In accordance with FCC regulations, the specific code or provision that grants me this right is outlined in Title 47 of the Code of Federal Regulations ( CFR ). While I do not have the exact code at hand, it is my understanding that the FCC ensures consumers have access to signed copies of contracts, especially those related to telecommunications and related services. This is a breach of contract and an adverse action for exercising my rights. Consumers also have rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), a separate federal law that regulates the practices of debt collectors. Under the FDCPA, if you request validation of a debt within 30 days of receiving the initial communication from a debt collector, the collector must provide you with certain information, including a written verification of the debt, if requested. However, this does not necessarily require the collector to provide the original signed contract or " wet documents. ''

It is a crime to threaten lawsuit with no intention of doing so, therefore you can take heed that I am very serious about filing suit against your company. I have sent 3 previous letters to you, requesting that you remove inaccurate information from my file and you have failed to do so. Accordingly, I can show a judge that these accounts are inaccurate and that you violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act by ignoring my requests to investigate the items. My previous letters stated my reasons for an investigation and these reasons were not frivolous in any way. If this final request does not prompt you to conduct a proper investigation of these accounts in question, and send proof to me of said investigation, I will file a civil suit in my county for damages and you can travel to defend yourself. I take my credit very serious and your lack of professionalism and assistance disappoints me. I am well aware of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act and I intend to pursue them to the maximum.

I talked to a CSR around XX/XX/XXXX about spreading my payment out over a year because I needed to do major repair on my car and the rep and I kinda went back and forth about how to handle making the payment I wanted to be sure that I won't be reported late and she did let me know it wasnt in the contract to do that what she could do is allow me to spread the payment but what she didnt warn me of that my payment would be reported late every month until I paid all the money I owed, so 4 months later and I'm still being reported late. I made the last payment on XX/XX/XXXX that made me current on all payments and then on XX/XX/XXXX I received a notice from XXXX saying I was 30 days late again I really need this to be resolved I'm also in the process of buying a home so your help is greatly needed and I have proof of all payments and, I also need to make it clear that up until this time I've never missed a payment and if I had known that it would be reported late I would have agreed to this atrocity.

I also told them they knew i was unemployed at the time and should never have given me a payment like that. I called them and explained I was XXXX and on ssdi. That I was not making much money and the payment was too high. That was the first conversation and then the car was repo 'd. my father who has since passed away from XXXX took care of the payment to get it back. Because he knew I was working on trying to find a way to fix my credit or get the loan down. I hired a credit agency because at that time I was hoping to find a way to buy a small home much cheaper then my XXXX rent. I told her I had called and begged them to take the negatives off since I was caught up. she told me to get another job. ok I'm XXXX I can't. then I hired a credit repair place I told her my issue XXXX the car payments and told her they don't care they won't help she said they would. did I explain about my surgeries I said yes they don't care. she called them and said your right I am so sorry they don't care at all.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I requested the interest rate charged per month again and Credit Acceptance refuses to do this. Credit Acceptance refuses to credit me the proper refund since I cancelled a worthless warranty on XX/XX/XXXX {$1700.00} rolled into a 22.99 % auto loan. I cancelled this XX/XX/XXXX, and only received a {$1700.00} credit. I asked for a print out of payments I made monthly ( 10 ) towards the XXXX on loan. From XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. 14 payments are due to me as a refund plus pre-calculated compound interest.They refuse.Predatory lending and unfair-deceptive consumer fraud- for they never ran my credit report. How did they arrive at 22.99 %?, they refuse to answer. I told them they are charging interest more than the car is really worth. No answer. Predatory lending. I told them there is no compound interest in Arizona or pre-calculated interest by lay. No answer. I requested my pay history and pay off statement showing the monthly interest. Credit Acceptance is a predatory lender.

Credit Acceptance Corporation ( XXXX ) failed to honor a reaffirmation on my auto loan following a XXXX bankruptcy filing ( dischargedXX/XX/XXXX ). I continued to pay {$310.00} to XXXX via automatic payments from my checking account without interruption. I later found XXXX had closed my account, and had not been reporting my timely payments to the Bureaus ( XXXX ). Between the time of the bankruptcy filing and my finding XXXX had not been counting and/or reporting my payments, I had paid them at total of {$1800.00}. Their report to the Credit Bureau reflects DFD/DLA of XX/XX/XXXX. I had absolutely NO default at this point, and had continued to make timely payments through XX/XX/XXXX. Following the discovery, I contacted XXXX and voluntarily surrendered the vehicle ; however, they are reporting it as an involuntary repossession. XXXX is now attempting to litigate against me in Civil claims court for the vehicle despite their having closed my account and kept my payments without reporting them.

I cosigned for my brother to get a vehicle. The lending company we had to go through was Credit Acceptance. My brother stopped making payments and put the truck in repossession. They keep reporting late payments on my credit report. I've given them 3 locations for where the truck is and they still have not repossessed the vehicle. I was told that I can't hire someone to repossess the vehicle but yet I'm still responsible for the loan. My credit is getting trashed every month and I have no legal recourse for turning the vehicle in. I tried to do a voluntary surrender and Credit Acceptance said that my brother has to consent to that as well. Even with the truck up for repossession. I've offered to pay half the loan if removed from the loan contract and repair my credit. I was told that's not an option either. I'm nowhere on the bill of sale, title or registration but being wrecked credit wise with no way to fix this. I seriously need help with this or directed towards an attorney that can help

To make payment arrangements which I continue to keep up, if I couldnt I would contact them to modify the arrangement. My vehicle I finance through credit acceptance was almost paid off. Well XXXX night I was awakened to a loud sound coming out my yard. It was my vehicle which I financed through credit acceptance being repossessed, snatched out of my yard without any notice. Credit acceptance did not contacting me giving me any information that they would repossess my car before repossession. After communicating and making payment arrangements with them I trusted they would do the right thing. My vehicle was nearly paid off. I have been without a vehicle every sense. Credit acceptance have put a ridiculous dollar amount and Put voluntary repossession on my credit to XXXX, XXXX and XXXX XXXX and that not the truth.

Purchased a car from credit acceptance back in XX/XX/XXXX. At first everything was fine I was paying {$370.00} a month if I couldn't make the payment I did an arrangement online. So skipping to XXXX every since XXXX of XXXX all they do is call and call even after making payments. They called yesterday telling my grandmother that the payment is about to be two months behind which is a lie they constantly harrass for no reason at all telling her lies and threatening to repo the vehicle when it's not even one month behind. I really want to get rid of them I don't want anything to do with that company they need to be closed down they are fraud. Then the world is in a pandemic dealing with Covid-19 and they bothering us for nothing it's bad enough one job laid me off I'm praying that's all that happens as of now. They don't care about the customers at all they should be punished they have done a lot of fraudulent things to people had I known all this I would have never gotten anything from them.

I requested my XXXX Credit Report and received Report # XXXX and noticed an entry that was furnished by Credit Acceptance Corporation which I have never engaged in business with. I notified them and asked them to verify/validate this debt on XX/XX/2023. As of XX/XX/2023 I have yet to receive a signed contract showing my financial obligation to said company. Furthermore, in the Comments section it says the first payment was never received, however I have some statements showing that there were a few on time payments. Additionally, I was part of a lawsuit with XXXX XXXX as there was a data breach and I believe my information has been used fraudulent since then ( see attached document ). Therefore, there are a number of inaccuracies as reported by this company. After reviewing 15 U.S.C 1681 Section 602 clause 4 I have good reason to believe that this consumer reporting agency has violated my right to privacy and am therefore requesting that this slanderous information be removed immediately.

I have called Credit Acceptance and XXXX XXXX XXXX several times to figure out what is going on regarding missed payments for a XXXX XXXX. The only missed payment that should have been reported was for XX/XX/XXXX, which was then paid in XX/XX/XXXX. Around XX/XX/XXXX, missing payments from XX/XX/XXXXXXXX to XX/XX/XXXXXXXX were reported to the 3 credit bureaus. Both Credit Acceptance and XXXX XXXX XXXX are saying they do not report missing payments to the credit bureaus, but neither will give me something in writing stating same. I have even asked for logs of the missing payments, but no one will respond. I can not get a copy of the signed lease agreement or financing documents. XXXX XXXX XXXX refuses to acknowledge in-writing that the vehicle 's whereabouts are known to them, they just refuse to get the vehicle. Overall, this is very fraudulent behavior- especially given that Credit Acceptance was willing to settle and close the lease agreement after the XX/XX/XXXXXXXX payment was made.

I purchased my vehicle through All approved auto sales, and they informed me that I was allowed to obtain a vehicle for {$20000.00} in which I just came across that the loan was immensely impacted and that what I signed off on was not what I expected to, and I tried to refinance my vehicle due to hardships, they told me that there was nothing they can do. The car is only worth {$10000.00}, the payout owed is {$34000.00}. Because I was behind on my payments, they stated that I had to pay more than what I was already paying, they do not work with you. I can't even trade the vehicle in because I'll still owe a lumpsum that's deterring car companies to turn me away because of the negative equity. My credit is heavily impacted by them, and I can no longer afford these payments. I was also told that I had GAP coverage and, on the payout, quote I was informed that I don't. I were scammed through All Approved Auto Sales in XXXX, NJ and I am looking to seek legal services in regard to this matter.

Before going into the business of collecting debts for creditors from North Carolina consumers, a collection agency must first obtain a state collection agency permit.

This company did NOT honor my request for removal. Additionally, as a financial institution, they did not disclose to me my right to opt out of the disclosure of my nonpublic information or directions on how to exercise my right to opt out as dictated by law. I sent them a letter notifying them of my request to be opted out of my nonpublic information being furnished to consumer reporting agencies pursuant to 15 U.S. Code 6802 and 16 CFR 313.7 in which they have denied my right. Instead, they stated that they do not offer their customers the option to opt out which is a direct violation of federal law ( s ) as they are REQUIRED to give opt out disclosures. As a federally protected consumer I am now revoking any and all authorization that I, the consumer, may have given them written, non written, verbal, and nonverbal per 5 U.S. Code 552a and I am demanding that my nonpublic information cease to be furnished. If this matter does not get settled, I will pursue litigation for damages.

Credit Acceptance Corporation is a Predatory Car lender that gave me high-interest subprime auto loan. The lender harassed me with phone calls. They called me from unknown number asking for payments. They also placed this on my credit report causing without my permission. The company has profited from this loans, and I have experienced credit harm, and lost my vehicle through repossession ( Still a harasser after repossession ), and down payments. I was also a subject to hidden finance charges, which I believe is in violations of the states usury cap. I was also unaware of this higher-risk loan.

In XXXX our vehicle was deemed a total loss. Credit acceptance was to provide the payoff amount so the loan could be paid in full. After they provided the payoff to XXXX, there was a remaining balance because of the cancelled automatic payment ; this was I unbeknownst to us. I received no notification that our payment wasnt processed until it was reported as late on my credit report. I called and spoke with them to understand what occurred. After speaking with them about the cancelled payment. XXXX XXXX informed us that they changed the company who was providing their payment processing while we had a pending payment in queue to be processed. This change in payment providers resulted in an automatic cancellation of our scheduled payment. These 2 occurrences were out of our control. We were not at fault for the accident or the late payment but, are being penalized for it. My credit score dropped to an unsatisfactory range and I am no longer eligible for a home loan.

On Friday, XX/XX/ I learned that my car was repossessed by Credit Acceptance. I called them and according to them they had not received payment since XXXX. I let them know that this is the first time I am hearing about this. I inquired if the company had tried communicating with me. We realized they had a wrong number on file. I further asked, if there were failed attempts by phone why didnt the company sent anything through the mail. The supervisor ( XXXX ) had no response to this. At this time I asked for a courtesy to release the vehicle for {$300.00}, what I was able to give at the moment. She stated that I can make the payment of {$300.00} today but the full expected amount to get the vehicle back was {$800.00} by XX/XX/XXXX or it goes into auction at which time I will be responsible for all fees including what the remaining payment was on the car. At this time I am without a vehicle and a standstill with the company as I do not have the full amount to get it back.

I financed this vehicle I believe in XXXX and on the report it shows that I refinanced this in XXXX. Also, I voluntarily gave up the vehicle to them because I became ill with XXXX and could not keep up with the payments and it states that it was involuntary repossession. I know they sold the vehicle and it says on my credit report the wrong balance. It should be lower than what it is. Its still reporting higher than it should be. Also, Ive been trying to get this removed from my credit for false Information because its holding me back from purchasing my home. Ive gotten it removed from XXXX, but the others will not remove it. I got a letter from them years ago, but it was from the law firm theyve sent it to requesting the money. Ive sent them my information and hospital information to show proof that I was sick at the time. I have not received anything else from them about this vehicle or a settlement or anything. Thank you for taking out the time to read my complaint.

The general purpose of the Fair Credit Reporting Act is to ensure that these agencies are FAIR, ACCURATE, AND EXHIBIT CONFIDENTIALITY in his or her credit reporting methods. The information being reported on my credit is not ACCURATE in regards to Credit Acceptance, they have committed fraudulent activity based on the contract they sent to me, everything is completely different in comparison to the original contract that i posses, according to the credit bureaus they have to report accurate information and if not they must remove the item from my credit reports, i would like CFPB to verify my original contract in comparison to the made up contract they have, and once it proves invalid request this item to be removed from my credit.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Credit Acceptance is reporting an inaccurate account on my credit reports that I have been disputing with the credit bureaus. Credit acceptance is reporting a monthly payment of {$0.00} but this account has consecutive late payments reporting for over a year. How are these late payments accurate if there is no monthly payment due? They are also reporting multiple inconsistencies between each bureau such as different balances owed, last payment dates, open dates and last active dates. It is their responsibility as a consumer reporting agency to report 100 % accurate information and they have failed to do so. They have violated the FCRA and my rights as a consumer to dispute any inaccurate information on my reports and to have valid accurate reporting accounts. This inaccurate account has caused me a lot of distress as I am not able to get approved and have low credit scores due to their negligence. I am demanding that this account is deleted from my reports now!

Im submitting a complaint in reference to Credit Acceptance Corporation ( CAC ). They are reporting my auto loan account as open. This loan was paid off by the insurance company on XX/XX/XXXX. How can they report an open account with no monthly payment amount listed? Also the open and term dates are reporting inaccurate. They have it listed on XXXX : High balance {$15000.00}, Current balance : {$14000.00}, payments made : {$1400.00}. Report date XX/XX/XXXX, Open date XX/XX/XXXX. Late payments {$0.00}, their reporting as over 120 past due. So within a two year timeframe, their saying I only paid {$1400.00} towards my balance. This is an auto loan not an revolving line of credit. Each credit report is reporting something different. I will attach a screenshot of the reports to support my claim. I would like this company to be removed of all three of my credit reporting agencies. Then see attached documents I have lawyer office saying I owe them for the same auto loan.

I financed a vehicle through Credit Acceptance on XX/XX/XXXX. The vehicle was a lemon. Within a year, I had to have the alternator changed 3 times. The alternator went bad again in XXXX of XXXX and the car would not run. The vehicle was towed to XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX and Credit Acceptance was called and asked to come and get the vehicle. In XXXX of XXXX, there had been no response from Credit Acceptance. XXXX 'XXXX Garage went to the XXXX to obtain a salvage title and therefore the XXXX sent certified letters to myself and to Credit Acceptance. Credit Acceptance did not respond and XXXX XXXX XXXX was granted the salvage title. Credit Acceptance removed the debt from my credit report but is now reporting the loan as open when in fact it has been five years since the salvaged title was granted. Credit Acceptance failed to secure the vehicle from the voluntary repossession and this is on record with the XXXX XXXX. The loan needs to be removed from my credit and closed.

Reached out to company before repossession during first 6 months to let them know that the vehicle was a " lemon '', it had a constant oil shortage in which the dealership suggested I drive there weekly from another city to receive more oil. I called to let credit acceptance know that I didn't want the vehicle due to the issues less than 6 months having the vehicle. Before any issues all payments were on time even after having to pay out of pocket I started receiving recall papers in the mail regarding the vehicle however by that time the engine had already went out, I reached out again to the finance company regarding these issues and not being able to pay I reached out to the company again during covid because I was having financial difficulties as was the rest of the world, however they still wanted payments and refused my offer to return the vehicle once again Couldn't work during covid and couldn't pay to fix an engine that I had already received recall about

My name is XXXX XXXX i am currently a member of the XXXX XXXX. XXXX of 2019 i was suddenly XXXX which left me no time to contact my current creditors to notify them therefore i was reported late by CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION for multiple months which has killed my credit score. I am about to come home soon and my plan is to purchase a home but this is hindering me. It was not by choice that i was suddenly XXXX. If these late pays can be corrected to paid on time never late that would really help me out. I have tried to dispute this with the credit bureaus and the original creditor which came back verified or validated..I am not an expert in credit so i do not know what else to do than to place a complaint with the CFPB. I hear the state attorney general is the next step. I do not want to cause issues for CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION, I just want this corrected. thank You I have attached a copy of my report for reference on all the late payments they reported.

On more than one occasion my payment cleared my bank and was not credited toward my loan. This caused payments to fall behind. I would catch up and then another payment would not be applied. I have provided the company with the bank statements showing the payment clearing in hopes they would correct the account-to date they have yet to do so. I make bimonthly payments every month to complete a full payment and the account continues to show past due with an unbelievable about of late fees and interest due. I would not be past due if the missing payments had been applied. Unfortunately, I am not in a position to pay the additional fees and payments again but have and will continue to make my $ XXXX monthly payment ( payment is {$570.00} XXXX. I contacted the company lasts month to discuss the possibility of adjusting the due date to bring me current in hopes of saving money in fees, I was told that since they were a second change lender that would not be an option.

Credit acceptance gave me a loan for a vehicle that did not last 3 months. The warranty they provided was useless. They repossessed the vehicle sold it for {$7500.00} the vehicle had no engine in it because it was being repaired the vehicle was valued at {$9000.00} some how i owe them {$7700.00} for a suv that was worth less. I puts down {$4600.00} as a down payment. They have not provided any details about the original contract and they closed the account on my credit using tactics to bully me to pay for a vehicle that otherwise should have never been sold. They have multiple lawsuits in New York and other states. Any investigation into this fraudulent company will determine they should not be allowed in Virginia. Credit acceptance should be prosecuted for violations against the people. They have not complied with my request for the original contract they refused to negotiate and are rude. They have violated Fcra deliberately and no one can do anything about it

This complaint is regarding Credit Acceptance. I became one month behind ( I have been paying consistently since XX/XX/2016 ), and they have used this as an opportunity to continually raise my payments ( which I have not missed ). They call me constantly at work and on my cell phone. If you are off by a day or two, they state that you broke your agreement, and raise your payments and threaten to repossess the car. I bought a XXXX XXXX XXXX which has a XXXX XXXX XXXX value of approx. {$5000.00}. They reported on my credit report that I am financed for {$10000.00} but I actually am financed for {$19000.00}. This company takes advantage of borrowers that have lower credit scores, and they feel they have the right to rip them off. I am paying 4 times the actual value of the vehicle. I can't imagine what these people do when customers are really behind on their payments. One lady stated to me, " don't be a day late or a dollar short, or we'll reposess the vehicle ''.

Credit Acceptance threatened with repossession of vehicle after not properly documented payment payment arrangement. Customer Service representatives use tactics to mislead and violate consumer rights under the debt collection act. I made a payment arrangement that was inputted by the customer service representative when I checked account on line I discovered incorrect information, action was taken by calling Credit Acceptance Corp and the representative lied mislead and threatened with repossession. This predatory lender also did a bait and switch when the car was purchased and did not disclose the vehicle had after market parts. Overall I have spent a large amount of money to maintain the vehicle which I was forced to purchase because of the approval process with the loan company and car dealership. At this point the vehicle has cost double what I intended to spend in the long term and now I am in fear of loosing my vehicle and damage to my credit profile.

I have contacted the Agency about my vehicle when I first purchased it in XXXX of 2019. I told them two days after I got the vehicle the transmission went out and they informed me they were not sending the check to the dealership for the car until they fix it or exchange my vehicle. They gave me false information and still funded my account and told me I had to make the payment even though they told me my payments wasn't going to start until my car was fixed or until the dealership exchange my vehicle. I couldn't afford to pay for the vehicle and come out of pocket {$5000.00} to fix the transmission after I just put {$2100.00} down for the vehicle. I was doing really good before I got the vehicle I've always paid my bills on time and never missed a payment now my credit is suffering because of them and I can't purchase a home because of the repossession. When the vehicle gotten repossessed and sold they have submitted different balances on each credit bureau.

Credit Acceptance has violated my federally protected rights under the FDCPA. They sent another 3rd party debt collector to repossess my car even though the application at the dealership was a completely binding contract that Credit Acceptance wasnt included in. Credit Acceptance agents/employees used deceptive means to say I owed an alleged debt violating 15 U.S.C 1692e specifically. They are also using my consumer report with Extortionate means violating 18 U.S.C. 894 to coerce and swindle me into paying an alleged debt on an extension of credit and assume criminally liable and be fined up to 20 years in jail. Credit Acceptance violated the false claims Act by stating I owe them when my SSN belongs to the SSA ( Social Security Administration ) which is a Obligation of the United States. You are now on Notice to Cease and desist Communications from me from all mediums INCLUDING my consumer report. Failure to Comply will result in Legal Matters For Damages.

I did a car history report on the vehicle and it revealed that the vehicle has a branded title and it exceeds the mechanical limits. It states also odometer problems and could be unsafe to drive. This was never told to me by dealership or finance company.. the vehicle mileage was misrepresented to make it appear it had lower mileage to increase the cost or value of the vehicle.! I've reached out to the company and I get nowhere.

In XX/XX/2018, this vehicle was stolen. The company ( Credit Acceptance ) stated they had GAP insurance with my loan and would be taken care of. To date, they are still reporting my loan every month as 120 days past due. I have spoken with the company, the collection agency that now owns the loan, and etc on multiple occasions. NO ONE will help me resolve this matter. This is the only negative thing I have affecting me from purchasing a home. I have tried so many times to get this account resolved and DELETED the inaccurate information of over 30 missed payments from my credit report I have no choice but to file a complaint. This company, the credit bureaus, and the collection agency has EVER followed up with me after I have sent them dispute letters to verify any type of information.

I have spoken with several employees XX/XX/XXXX at Credit Acceptance on different dates confirming that my 1st date of delinquency was XX/XX/XXXX but this company continues to report it as XX/XX/XXXX to the bureaus.They have sent me an invoice that clearly shows XX/XX/XXXX as the 1st date of delinquency. Ive been bounced around by management telling me to contact the bureaus because theyre the parties that are reporting this to my credit. I called each bureau only to be told that they only update what the Lender sends in. This account has been on my credit for over 7 years and should have been removed months ago. Since my dispute in XX/XX/XXXX Credit Acceptance has removed this from XXXX but keeps reporting to XXXX and XXXX that the information is correct when in fact it isnt. This is negligence on their part and illegal. Obviously they are aware that it should no longer be reporting because it was removed from XXXX. This needs to be removed immediately.

Credit Acceptance has been calling my wife on the due date of our payment until they receive payment 3 or more times a day. Not only do we pay for our car we pay it and have never missed a payment or slow paid. They charge us up to {$12.00} to make a payment which to me is fraud and its something we were not made aware of when we bought our vehicle. I talked to someone today and Credot Acceptance and they stated they are not a primary lender so they dont have to stop calling. You guys need to do your job and enforce what the trade commission has laid out for these companies. I feel sorry for people who dont make their payment for what they do to them and harass. I was clear on my phone call to them. I stated what the FTC says they can and cant do for collection practices. They more or less said we dont care. We will do what we want. In that case I will too. So Im giving you an opportunity to fix this problem before I take the matter into my own hands.

It is showing on my credit report as a closed account with remarks affected by natural disaster as to why I voluntarily surrendered it, and instead of the company removing the terms after reselling it ( which I never recieved the resale information ) this company is reporting monthly on this closed collection account as if I am making monthly payments and that I am not but it shows 67 % debt to income ratio. I have not made a payment nor am I going to. I contacted the lender for them to correct this as its reporting in accurately every single month. This creditor will not assist or correct it and I have contacted my State Attorney General as well.

I have attached a copy of a XXXX XXXX, 2016 letter whereas I stipulated the legal requirements on any vehicle repossession. I would agree to settle this matter with certified funds of {$1000.00} if Credit Acceptance would essentially communicate with me. They have not answered my letters and I believe that my offer is more than reasonable under the circumstances. However, I am 100 % in the right on the requirements on any vehicle repossession. That is a violation under New York State collection guidelines and the national Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. Accordingly, I offer {$1000.00} certified funds to resolve this matter in the best interest of both parties, and I request that settlement offer in written form as soon as possible.

I purchased this vehicle in XXXX through XXXX XXXX XXXX. During the signing I was told that I was to put down {$1500.00} and a trade of my XXXX XXXX. I informed them that I did not want the gap coverage. I was not only charged for gap coverage they added extra items onto my account such as warranties and auto maintenance coverage. I was not told they were adding these fees under financing. When my wife looked over my forms she discovered all these erroneous fees. Approximately a few weeks after purchasing my vehicle, the dealership went out of business. I contacted Credit Acceptance to ask them to remove and reimburse me for the fees charged. I was told that they don't refinance and that they can't take off the excessive fees and maintenance that I was charged. I have now retired and am XXXX and I can't continue making these extra fees. I would like an investigation into this and I would appreciate any assistance you could provide. Thank you!

I purchased a car via XXXX XXXX XXXX out of XXXX, Nevada which was financed via Credit Acceptance Corporation. They wound up charging me over XXXX in interest on a loan that was around XXXX which seems high. On my credit report, they did not report that I paid off over XXXX, they only reported that I paid off over XXXX so where did the extra money that I paid off go to? On top of this, they put a XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) that caused problems with the car. The car wound up shocking me as a result according to the mechanics. I was told that they never should have put the device in but they refused to fix it or replace it, etc. ( I have evidence of this ). After all of this, I can not drive me car due to issues with the electrical problems that this device caused and I have had close to XXXX in medical bills over this. This is not fair. I feel that they should have done something to help rectify this situation but they do not seem to care at all.

When I purchased this vehicle on XX/XX/2016 I was told my loan would be for 60 months and that my annual percentage rate would be approx 20 %. The amount I financed is {$12000.00}. They are charging me almost 70 %! of the amount financed as a " finance charge ''. That is a ridiculous amount and I feel I was taken advantage of by this company at that rate. My vehicle is now worth only {$2000.00} and I still owe over {$8000.00} on this loan. XXXX XXXX and Credit Acceptance took advantage of me when I was desperate for a vehicle to continue commuting to work. XXXX XXXX also did not let me see the contract and just clicked through themselves with a digital signature with my name listed. I want answers as to how a company can charge you almost 70 % on a vehicle loan at that time the vehicle being used and 8 years old. This loan should not have been approved knowing that the vehicle wasn't even worth the amount of the sale PLUS the finance charge.

I brought a car from a car lot on XX/XX/2016. I have never had an original contract with Credit acceptance with my signature that I signed with them. This company keeps reporting the same balance of {$9200.00} to my credit bureaus since XX/XX/2016. I have asked them to send me a legal contract I actually signed with their company they can not produce it. I do not want the contract with the dealer I want the legal contract with my signature and date with Credit acceptance. They are rude and has never updated my updated amount. The company I purchased the car from said the car was {$10000.00} when I looked over the paper work it is for {$19000.00}. This company needs to be removed from my credit report I do not have an original nor new contract with them. I tried calling to discuss this matter but they are rude and do not allow me to talk. I have asked for the oringinal contract also payment history and they will not send me this information.

My vehicle was totaled in XX/XX/XXXX credit acceptance received payment for the vehicle value. I open the loan with credit acceptance in XX/XX/XXXX the duration of the loan was for three years. However credit acceptance has been illegally reporting missing payments to all three credit bureaus recently being on XXXX XXXX. They still have this loan as being opened and missing payments. I have contacted this company several times and was talked to in a very unprofessional and disrespectful manner. This is going on year five that this loan has been opened which was originally XXXX dollars however credit acceptance has on my credit report that I owe them almost XXXX dollars for the used vehicle that was totaled. This is practicing unfair and disceptive actions towards consumers such as myself. It is illegal for them to report defamatory information to hinder my credit continuously and maliciously with the intent to cause harm or financial gain.

I am once again responding to the previous complaints that I have made against this company. I stand firm in the fact that I did not consent to have this vehicle in my name. The only document I signed regarding this vehicle was giving XXXX permission to deposit the post-dated check that I provided as part of the down payment for the vehicle. I have inspected the document that Credit Acceptance submitted as the signature page and, once again, I did not sign this document. Not sure if my signature was transposed onto this document but I did not knowingly sign it. I have gone to the town where the car was originally purchased -- XXXX XXXX AL -- but the car lot no longer exists. I have been doing research on this company and I've noticed a lot of complaints similar to mine. Because Credit Acceptance is adamant that I willingly consented to this contract, I will instead dispute the validity of the contract, based on federal and state laws.

I recieved a loan from Credit Acceptance bank, for a used XXXX XXXX XXXX. When I went to the dealership which was XXXX XXXX I tried choosing the car that was best for me and instead they rushed me into getting a car I didnt want. I was putting a down payment of XXXX, and instead they came back to me and said the bank required me to put down more, so I ended up putting down XXXX. They never went over the terms and everything for the car, they told me the bank said I could only get that specific car, I really feel like the bank got over on me. In XXXX, XXXX, they repossessed my car and I was able to pay to get it back, when I did get it back the car was damaged, I notified the bank and they said that they would reach out to the auction company to see what happened, basically they damaged the car then gave it back, and I was held reliable for the repairs. The bank has put me through a lot and I dont feel I should go through this anymore.

I reported a dispute to XXXX regarding Credit Acceptance. I called Credit Acceptance first to work out reporting. They state my account has been closed since XX/XX/XXXX. ( verified verbally as well as the XXXX tracking on the check sent to them ) Yet, they reported to all bureaus that it was open. They received a check for {$22000.00} which is in excess of the XXXX payoff amount due. Proof attached, verbally stated it is good through XX/XX/XXXX the date the check was received.Then they stated to all bureaus that my debt amount owed to them was XXXX ( the amount of the check ) which caused a 34 pt. decrease in my credit score. Proof attached. This is troublesome for several reasons - unfair, incorrect reporting. Credit damage. Reporting an account as NOT closed yet agreeing over the phone it is. Appearing to intend to keep the refund owed due to cancellation of the warranty. Contract states it is owed to me ( Illinois provision ).

I tried volunteering surrender the XXXX 3 times. I called Credit Acceptance Corp and spoke with an agent and told them I was going to surrender the XXXX. I gave location where the XXXX was parked and was told it was going to be pick up. This was back in XXXX, Credit Acceptance Corp hold off on the repossession for the account to grow interest on the account. Now the XXXX value has down because of years passed. If it was pick up in XXXX, the value of the XXXX would be more then today value and it would have paid into the balance in XXXX. The left over balance would be less. Now the account pick up more interest and late fee. Also I finance the XXXX for {$22000.00} and Im told I have to pay {$33000.00} which the company has already added the finance charge for payoff. I thought the finance charge was only added each month has passed. The account would have been settle XXXX years ago if you only pick up the XXXX the XXXX times I called.

During the pandemic I lost my job and was put on a payment plan for the past few months. They told me that they would not report late payments if it was not 40 days past due. I made all my payments before the XXXX of the month according to my prior payment plans. They assured they do not report late payments. They reported for late payments suddenly on my account when they were marked as current before. This company is known to tamper with credit reporting.I called the company and they said my payment date suddenly changed to the seventh of the month. I asked her about my payment plan she said she no longer sees a payment plan in the system. This company is such a fraud. Ive been paying almost {$500.00} a month for a vehicle that hasnt been on the road for over a year and a half now. I am a single mom of XXXX kids and Im trying to get a mortgage approval and this is the only thing that is stopping me otherwise I had excellent credit.

Back in XXXX I purchased a vehicle with XXXX miles and at the time I didn't have the greatest credit so I was set up with Credit Acceptance. I was told they was okay and that they has handle many of there of clients for them in the past. In XX/XX/XXXX my car was repoed. Upon getting the car back I was told to make a payment of XXXX monthly for the next two years. Credit Acceptance agreed to letting me do my payments every two weeks {$300.00} which would make it $ 600 monthly. I then learned that I had 120+ missed payments from Credit Acceptance. When I call them they said I also have to make the monthly payment of {$390.00} also. I filled a dispute with Credit Acceptance and nothing was done. I also filled a dispute with the Attorney General office and they said since Credit Acceptance didn't respond they couldn't do anything. I currently owe over {$7000.00} and the vehicle is not working. These missed payments is hurting my credit.

This is XXXX XXXX, who is submitting this CFPB complaint myself and to inform you that there is no third party involve in the process. I have a loan with CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CO Opened XX/XX/2016. I have always made my payments on time yet there was a 30-59 days late state. Another thing, this was an illegal repossession followed by illegally reporting on my credit report ; this should have been investigated and corrected immediately. I tried contacting XXXX and XXXX Credit Bureau requesting a complete payment history with this account for me to review the exact date on which the late payments and repossession were posted. Unfortunately, there was no successful resolution provided nor feedback heard from the concerned Bureaus. There was definitely an error on their part. There was definitely an error on their part. The bureaus are condoning illegal behavior and willfully in violation of FCRA. PLEASE REMOVE FROM MY REPORT IMMEDIATELY.

Well first and formost I financed a car through credit acceptance from a car dealership called XXXX XXXX now in the process of talking with the people at XXXX XXXX I was told that credit acceptance would finance me the vehicle. The car was priced out for XXXX so I gave them XXXX as a down payment on XXXX XXXX XXXX. The car broke down on me and hasnt been driven in months now and I havent had the car in years breaks went out on me in a week and when I explained this to them asking can I return the car I was told it would mess my credit up. I lost my job due to not having transportation and I told them this. So now Im getting harassed with calls daily credit is being shot to pieces dealing with this company telling me I owe them XXXX for a car that isnt even worth that amount. My mother actually did the research and told me to contact you guys because you already had been dealing with issues when it comes to Credit acceptance Corp.

I called to set up a payment arrangement, I was told I was garnished and that 's it. I went to the court house they told me credit acceptance never sent me a court date to appear in court. They also lied and told the court I ignored the citation. I have my phone records to prove I called them right after the sheriff served the papers. The citation paper have XX/XX/XXXX for XXXX.

They said I should contact the creditor myself. I sent a letter to the creditor via certified mail dated XXXX XXXX, requesting validation of this account by way of a signed contact dated XX/XX/XXXX. My letter was received and signed for on XX/XX/XXXX by Credit Acceptance Corp. I also mailed a copy of my letter to CFPB, XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. All 3 credit bureaus opened another dispute when they received my letter. Today, XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX says again, the account shall remain, because the creditor claims the information to be true and the bureau is only a data collector. The creditor has not sent any validation that I opened any type of account with them XX/XX/XXXX, as I did not. This creditor can not provide a signed contract that doesn't exist.

All disputes were closed and the lender verified the incorrect data again after paying them over XXXX dollars in one month to double up and pay my loan off early. I have reopened disputes again as well as shown documentation to the Credit agencies as well as opened complaints with this agency now on file as well. The loan company 's response is to put me on hold or hang up on me once denying my claim and asking for a supervisor. Never ever again will I do business with Credit Acceptance Corporation and this is a very hard loan that is designed for failure from the start your paying three times the amount of the vehicle after a 6 year term. I just got out from being triple upside down on the loan and they refuse to acknowledge my greatness at beating them at there game.

When I reached out to Credit Acceptance in regards to the account they stated that the account was closed but it still actively shows as Open on me and my wife credit reports, It reports every month as Late. The account original balance was {$10000.00}. I have settled the account with Credit Acceptance as agreed with the creditor for {$2000.00}. But the Creditor is still reporting the account as open and late which is really hurting me and my wife credit. I have also Reached out to all three Bureaus ( XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX ) to have them investigate the account to correct the errors but they keep stating that it was verified as accurate which is not accurate. I ask that this issue be rectified as this is the only account on my report that is hindering me from moving forward.

In accordance with the fair credit reporting act this creditor has violated my rights under 15usc 1681 section 602 states I have the right to privacy. 15u.s.c 1681 section 604a section 2 it also states consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my instructions on the 15uscs 1666b a creditor can not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open and consumer credit plan as late for any purpose. I have asked them repeatedly to come get the vehicle, and they refuse, I was told the vehicle was not worth repo due to the value versus the loan. They are reporting this account as negative and it has affected my credit. I always get the run around, I have repeatedly called and all they try to do is have someone repossess the vehicle when I have voluntarily offered to surrender it in exchange to have the negative reporting stopped. They have damaged my credit, and are not willing to work with me whatsoever.

The vehicle in question was having serious mechanical issues 3 months after I got it. I took it to their only " authorized '' repair shop and they had it for a month and had other from other stores come and look at it as well and they stated that it could not be fixed. They rebuilt the engine and said that the problem of gas shooting out of the tailpipe was a serious issue and they could not figure out what was causing it or how to repair it. Since the car was not drivable and they gave up and no longer would continue to work on finding the issue, that there was nothing that could be done. It was repossessed from the repair place and my request. However, I am not liable for this money that was owed on the loan because it could not be repaired into a drivable condition by the only repair place that they would allow me to take it to. This needs to be removed off my credit reports because I am not liable for this loan any longer.

XX/XX/XXXX I attempted to pay the loan off which at the time balance was estimated around 13,000 this lender only accepts payments less than 1,500 at a time I made multiple payments to total XXXX to pay the loan off. They rejected all but 1 payment and returned them without any notification to myself and any valid reason. I under the assumption the loan was paid off called in XXXX to verify only to find out that it was not paid off. I then requested another payoff amount which XX/XX/XXXX I paid again. I called to verify the payments were applied this time and was advised that they now had to refund the extended warranty plan and that would take 2 weeks to be applied of which they would continue to apply daily interest affecting my total payoff. This company gives you a pay off amount valid for that day only when they don't even allow you to pay it off by continuing to apply interest until they get around to applying a rebate.

XXXX XXXX XXXX located in XXXX XXXX, named me as a Co-signer on a vehicle approved by Credit Acceptance. I did not sign nor was I informed about any of this. I have never purchased a vehicle at any Auto Dealership nor have I ever attempted to purchase a vehicle at a Dealership due to the unjust and life ending amount of interest Child Support and the XXXX as well as the XXXX XXXX system has attached to a monthly child support payment a incredibly bias Commissioner has ordered me to pay. The amount has exploded to a ridiculous amount as I was unemployed at the time this was apparently was written in stone. My license was then suspended by the XXXX. The amount owed is certain to automatically deny any attempt to assume the role of a Co-Signer of a vehicle loan. I currently do not understand at how this was approved. Yet at the time of XXXX to XXXX my information was attached to Credit Acceptance which was without my knowledge.

Upon receiving Military orders to XXXX XXXX, XXXX, Credit Acceptance said they do not allow the transfer of vehicles out of the country. I provided the orders and the vehicle was surrendered under these circumstances. While in XXXX, i was alerted by my security manager that my vehicle had been stolen. I contacted Credit Acceptance and learned that the vehicle was stolen from XXXX XXXX XXXX not me. Credit Acceptance continued indicating late payments on my credit report while the vehicle was stolen from there care and not mine. I addressed this issue with the company and was assured they would fix this. Over a year later, I go to purchase a home for my family and this is hindering me from moving forward. They insisted I fill out a dispute form and return. I refused due to this being an ongoing issue. My next step is this and then a lawyer seeing there are now damages. I will attempt to have this rectified through this agency.

Credit acceptance auto finance loan is a bunch of crooks. All the information pertaining to my car loan that I inquired on has continuously went unanswered. Here are some of my concerns. For starters I have been paying a repossession down for two ( 2 ) years in the amount of {$500.00} monthly and the balance still remains the same. This would make the loan more than 120 days past due and yet the loan has still yet to be written off ; and I am still being assessed compounding late fees. I would like to settle this loan for a reasonable amount or the value of the vehicle. I have dealt with difficulties and setbacks throughout the course of the pandemic including contacting XXXX myself multiple times, unsteady employment and housing and each and every time I asked for assistance I had been denied. Please assist with a settlement or balance write off for this vehicle as they have received more than what the vehicle is worth.

I financed a XXXX that I willingly gave back after I filed bankruptcy and which has been auctioned off. Mind you, I never have been late in my car payment, and once I file, the company is not allowed to report to the credit agencies during bankruptcy. Credit Acceptance has continued reporting negatively as if I havent made a car payment in over a year. My account is also listed as open. I filed 2 complaints with the company, it was supposed to be off my credit report by the XXXX of XXXX. Credit Acceptance refuses to give me anything in writing due to me filing bankruptcy over a year ago and still is not removing the false information and its causing me to be denied for things. Im reaching out as a last chance to have them remove this before I begin the process of suing the company.

Good evening. I purchased a vehicle in XXXX of 2015. The finance company is Credit Acceptance Corporation. The original price of the vehicle was {$6400.00}. I put down {$3000.00} After providing my downpayment, as I went to sign my finance papers, I was informed that XXXX adds an extra {$2000.00} onto the price of the vehicle for their " lending service fee ''. Then, on top of that, since it made the loan more than what the vehicle is worth ... I was required to pay them a MANDATORY GAP insurance payment that was included in my monthly payment. Now, I understand that a higher finance rate is acceptable when starting over to rebuild your credit. But I have since found out that XXXX has been sued and found guilty in many states due to their " lending fee '' as it is considered predatory lending. Not to mention, GAP insurance is voluntary. I would not have even needed it if not for their {$2000.00} " lending fee ''.

Since then they have contacted me daily demanding payment. I have submit a complaint through their system, but the harassment continues. Today ( XX/XX/XXXX ) they even threatened to " keep calling '' until the debt was settled. Furthermore the amount they are requiring me to pay overall is almost double what the agreement stated at the dealership was. I have been paying on time for over 2 years, totaling upwards of {$6500.00}, and when I requested to know how much more was left they gave me a number over {$6000.00}. The car is a XXXX. This is overall four times what the car 's value is. It almost three times the value of when I purchased it.

I had a voluntary repossession with Credit Acceptance in XXXX or XXXX of 2018 because the vehicle was having issues and was not worth what I was paying for it. Since then there has been ZERO contact. They never notified me of the sell of the vehicle or proceeds that were gathered from that. It wasn't until I logged into the account that the amount of {$6000.00} was deducted from the account. The original cost of the loan was {$16000.00}, so that made the balance around {$12000.00}. However, since this there have been fees being attached to this loan over and over again. The amount over 5 years is up to over $ 19k. They have not contacted me to collect the balance and tell me my disputes a " frivolous '' so they will not be investigating. I also believed I was incorrectly charged and deceived by dealer finance charges in the amount of $ 11k. They also never corrected my name on the account as it was spelled wrong.

Credit Acceptance Corporation is erroneously reporting my account 30 days past due to the major credit reporting agencies.

They have stated to me that I have to complete a dispute form and that would be mailed to me. I have requested this information since XX/XX/2020 and it is now XXXX and I never received the document. I requested it twice. There is a discrepency of approximately {$180.00} which I believe are late fees, however they are reporting my payment of {$520.00} late since XXXX and my regular monthly payment is not 30 days past due. The representatives are rude and are not clear with what the discrepency is. Please assist me with dealing with this matter. The remedy I am seeking is for XXXX XXXX XXXX to remove the late reporting to my credit reports and to correct my billing. Thank you.

I purchased a XXXX Model vehicle on XX/XX/XXXX, and after having it for less than 60 days it gave me some problems. After the repair shop accessed the issue it was determined to be engine failure. The cost was XXXX . I contacted my lender Credit Acceptance Corporation and discussed a payment arrangement because I was having to pay for repairs. Half of the money came out my pocket and I financed the other half. My financed payment was costing me XXXX $ /month so credit acceptance offered me a payment of XXXX $ /month for 6 months to help me out on my car note. Well CA never mentioned that this would show up as delinquent payments dropping my credit score over 150 points. I am having a hard time with certain finance companies trying to get a loan for home repairs. Credit acceptance never ever said this would be considered delinquent. I am hoping someone can look into this in hopes of getting my credit score back up.

Due to my previous complaint being closed with no resolution, I am filing another complaint. Credit Acceptance is inaccurately reporting on my credit report. The vehicle was repossed ONE time, and that was the only time. I never once redeemed the vehicle after the voluntary surrender due to the predatory rates and prices. You can see in the response from Credit Acceptance, the amount they are stating is owed is not the same as reported on my credit report. I have called and asked for proof of the vehicle being redeemed. No proof is able to be giving. They have re-aged this account MULITPLE times, and re-aging is illegal. Under my rights with the FCA, this account should be removed from my credit report immediately. Until this is removed, I will continue to dispute and make complaint after complaint because no persons deserves to have this hanging over their head for 7 years ESPECIALLY with inaccurate information.

After a few years I lost my job and was unable to regularly maintain paying my car note. Especially after I had to replace the engine within the first few days of owning the car and replace the XXXX in the first year. I contacted the creditor and informed them of my situation and they were unconcerned to say the least everytime. I was threatened with late payment and repossession. At a point my vehicle was physically taken but never repossessed. I payed the owing balance. My car was also in a auto accident that still isnt settled. So I paid my car off my self. I've disputed the multiple lates the account created I am hoping to have the account totally removed from my credit history due to the misreporting of information.

I have faxed in information proving I have made my car payments. XXXX XXXX directly faxed this information to credit acceptance. XXXX XXXX has confirmed payments were made, payments were not returned back into my account. Credit acceptance verified they received this information, but is now asking for more information and bank statements for months I have made payments. What does this have to do with the payments they are claiming I didnt make? They are claiming my payments from XXXX and XXXX were returned in XXXX which makes no sense. XXXX XXXX verified this did not happen. XXXX XXXX verified these payments were made and proof was sent to credit acceptance. They are refusing to update my account to reflect this information. They are reporting my account is not in good standing. This is affecting my credit AND I had to make a payment to stop a repossession on my vehicle! This is ridiculous and it needs to stop!

I opened an auto loan with Credit Acceptance corp. Due to a repossession in my past I was told I would need to allow them to install a vehicle tracker in my car. This did not seem unreasonable at the time but since then I have learned they are able to remotely disable my vehicle and will call me, sometime 7-8 times an hour, requesting payment of a late fee or service fee even though according to my credit report, I have made all of my payments on time since XX/XX/XXXX of last year. I am often confused about the nature and origin of these fees but will pay them out of fear that I will be stranded or not able to get to work. I have asked to move my billing date to allow me to get caught up and remain in good standing with my loan but they refused and the seemingly random fees make it impossible to get ahead. I feel as though I am being held hostage and have no idea if what they are doing is legal. Please help me.

Vehicle purchased XX/XX/XXXX.Vehicle was totalled XX/XX/XXXX, 1 car payment had been paid ( XX/XX/XXXX/XX/XX/XXXX ). Insurance adjuster made a settlement ( of {$9100.00} ) with the lender who accepted. The payoff at the time was {$10000.00}, Gap insurance should have covered the remaining $ XXXX.Another car payment ( approx {$260.00} ) was drafted from account, was told that because we didn't cancel autodraft it automatically took out the money and money would be refunded after account was settled and Gap insurance took over. Several phone calls were made to resolve this and refund the extra car payment. Then was told money would not be refunded and we still owed {$15.00} which has now been reported to both our credit reports, and that Gap would only cover {$660.00}, not the remaining {$920.00} at the time setrlement was presented and accepted and bwfore an additional car payment was drafted out of the account.

I financed a XXXX XXXX through credit acceptance with XXXX miles back in 2016. The car sales price was around {$10000.00} of the car lot at a payment of approximately {$500.00} a month. What I didnt understand was how high the interest rate was on the loan its somewhere about around 25 %. I payed on the vehicle for two years straight no late payments and fell on hard times and I did not understand the terms that were given when the loan was originated and the vehicle was repossessed. They then auctioned off the vehicle for {$2000.00} and got an order to garnish my wages for {$12000.00}. That more then what the car was worth when I bought it. The vehicle also needed a new transmission and which was a {$3000.00} repair and made it it impossible to drive. I then had to pay for an attorney to stop the garnishment and had to pay {$200.00} a month. I cant afford {$200.00} a month because I still need transportation.

To whom this may concern, I've noticed fraudulent activity on my credit reports ( XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX ). What has been reported has led me to believe that I may be a victim of identity theft, as i did not approve/ authorize any information to be used in my name and social security for this fraudulent account. I am requesting that this fraudulent item be deleted from my credit report as soon as possible. A security freeze was placed on my credit which should have alerted me prior to my information being used toward this account. This fraudulent item is reporting inaccuracies which are negatively impacting my credit which is extremely disappointing. I have reported the theft of my identity to the Federal Trade Commission and would like this item to be removed from my credit report immediately. Please reviewed the enclose copy of the Federal Trade Commission affidavit regarding this fraudulent account. Thanks.

The financial company supposed to have repoed the vehicle. I gave them the information where the car is located. It was located at the XXXX dealership in XXXX XXXX georgia for repairs. They attempted to repo the car 4 times at the dealership but the dealership said they had to pay a small fee to come on the property to repossess the car. So I think the financial company didn't pay so they didn't repo the car and I never got the car back because it was suppose to be removed there so I dnt know what happened to the car after that but they have the car on my credit report as a open account as if I still have the car. It's been 2 years now and it's still on my report as a open account. I financed the car in 2016. The car is a XXXX XXXX. It's not my fault the didn't repo the car. I gave the the address where it was located and the dealership said they attempted to 4 times but didn't want to pay the lot fee first.

I filled a complaint with the XXXX after I mailed a certified letter to Credit Acceptance regarding Deleting a old account for a car my brother use to own, and received information about the Repossession that shows that the payments remained in default and it should of been deleted off my credit report as of XX/XX/XXXX. On the letter I received from Credit Acceptance it showed that they added a repossession cost dated XX/XX/XXXX for {$390.00}. The account was listed current on XX/XX/XXXX, and starting XX/XX/XXXX it was a balance of XXXX and remained in default. When the car was repossessed in XXXX it was a balance of XXXX before the added repossession fee. So going off the Fair Credit Act it was suppose to be deleted 7 years from the default date which would of been XX/XX/XXXX, and they're still reporting negative remarks on my credit report. I just want this to be handled and deleted like it suppose to be.

My wife applied for a car loan from XXXX XXXX XXXX and needed a co-signer which I agreed to do. However, the dealer put this loan in my name which I did not authorize. I didn't sign anything and wasn't even present during this deal. The car they sold us was a lemon which explains why they were trying to rush this through. The loan, which started on XX/XX/XXXX, is through Credit Acceptance. They and the dealer have acknowledged that this is an illegal loan and told me to return the car to the dealership which i did on XX/XX/XXXX. The dealer has since relisted the car. I contacted Credit Acceptance multiple times to get this illegal loan out of my name and they are telling me they can't until the dealer releases the loan. Why does a bank, who's financing this, need to wait dealer to terminate the loan? And if this loan is still technically in my name, how is it that XXXX XXXX XXXX has it relisted for sale?

Credit Acceptance is reporting an inaccurate negative autoload on my credit reports that I have been disputing with them for quite some time. Credit Acceptance is verifying inconsistent and inaccurate information regarding this debt. This account is being verified that there is a monthly payment of {$0.00}, however there are multiple late payments reporting. How can they report this account late if there is no monthly payment due? They are also verifying inconsistent last payment and activity dates with each bureau. It is illegal for a consumer reporting agency to verify and report inaccurate information on a consumers report. Their inaccurate reporting has caused me to get denied and a lot of distress as I have been disputing this inaccurate account and I am not able to get any resolution when they are clearly in violation of the FCRA. I am demanding that this account is deleted from my reports now!

In XXXX, I financed a vehicle, a XXXX XXXX XXXX with XXXX miles on it. My monthly payments are {$920.00}. The field I was in, was able to take care of that monthly payment. But my contract is for 66 months at $ XXXX {$970.00}. In XXXX thats when I got laid off and soon after the pandemic happened. I couldnt find work. And I fell behind on my payment. I still have the vehicle to this day. Ive tried to ask for a deferment so my account isnt in delinquent. I make {$600.00} biweekly payments. During the year of the pandemic I wasnt employed. So I became more delinquent. I would said 10 or 11 months delinquent and I still had the vehicle. Now they call me telling me I have to pay {$11000.00} to bring my vehicle current or repossession will take place. I am struggling. I lost a child during the pandemic and it wasnt easy getting out of my situation. My interest rate is about 22 % or more. I am from the XXXX XXXX

Hello, In XXXX I financed a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( Vin # XXXX ) with a {$3000.00} down payment from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX WI XXXX. With the recent and also past lawsuits that Credit Acceptance Corp. has been involved in ( according to multiple national news networks ) has made me take another look at my contract with them in XXXX. Not only did I notice my APR was at 23.99 % but there was an optional extended warranty for {$1400.00} and a optional GAP protection for {$630.00} somehow was added to the contract. Knowing that these extra useless expenses that were added, would eventually cause me to default on the loan. I believe that C.A.C. is in violation of Wisconsin State Laws regarding " Usury '' with this contract. I will attach a copy of the contract to this complaint. And I will be providing Wisconsin XXXX Attorney General a copy also. Thank you for your time. XXXX XXXX XXXX

In XXXX my husband filed bankruptcy on a vehicle HE owned. It has been reported as XXXX on his report but shows I owe them {$3800.00}. I was never on loan. After that was discharged, magically they added the debt to my credit report as owing about {$3800.00}. They then hired a collection attorney in XXXX to sue me. In which I responded with all ORIGINAL ink signed paperwork-none showing my name. Covid hit and it got delayed. XXXX comes around they re-open the court case. I dispute again. This time actually getting a hearing and it being fully dismissed with predjudice. The company sent a letter XX/XX/XXXX, stating no $ is owed, however, for the last 5 years this has negatively impacted my credit. I have disputed it multiple times via the credit bureaus and by sending them letters. I want this FINALLY deleted from my credit in full, and the business should be fined along with the credit reporting bureaus.

Over the past 2 years I have submitted disputes to the organization and the credit bureau for reporting inaccurate information. Credit Acceptance continued to report inaccurate information to all 3 the credit buraus. After each dispute Credit Acceptance would come back and say the information they are reporting was accurate. In XXXX, XXXX deleted the account after a dispute due to the continuous inaccurate reporting from Credit Acceptance. I grew so tired of the back and forth between Credit Acceptance, and the credit bureaus I paid the car off early in XX/XX/XXXX and the account was closed. Today XX/XX/XXXX. I get a letter from XXXX indicating that Credit Acceptance requested to have the account reinserted into my credit XX/XX/XXXX. The account was reinserted as an open account with a {$5900.00} balance. My XXXX credit score took a hit for the reinsertion of an account with debt I don't actually owe.

Credit Acceptance corporation Was very deceitful in the agents portrayal of deferring of auto payments saying that the deferred payments would be added to the End of the loan and extension of the payoff dates. Soon after the deferring of auto loans ( 2 ) that I have they demanded the entire deferred balance ( nearly 6 months for 2 cars approx XXXX $ ) in addition to the standard monthly payments! That's NOT a deferral that's simply deceitful and literally lying. So when continuing payments they have for nearly 3 years considered my payments behind 6 months on my credit report. Also Credit Acceptance Corporations debt and calling the customers collection program is absolutely non stop. I get collection calls BEFORE XXXX XXXX AND AFTER XXXX XXXX often and holidays and weekends some weeks I have received nearly XXXX calls! More than several per day. Please take some action against this company!

Credit acceptance has placed an inaccurate late payment on my credit profile for my auto loan for the month of XX/XX/XXXX. My payment due dates are the XXXX of every month and my payment was made in full on XX/XX/XXXX. I called and spoke with a rep over the phone and she confirmed that the payment was made on time and was not sure why a late payment was on my account and she instructed me to write the " Credit reporting department '' who handles these issues. On XX/XX/XXXX, I wrote them a letter and they responded weeks later that the account is " accurate '' and they are not going to update my account. I have proof that my auto load for that month was in fact paid on time from my receipt of payment made on XX/XX/XXXX. This inaccurate reporting is affecting my credit profile and score and I need credit acceptance to rectify this info and update it correctly immediately upon receipt of this notice.

In dealing with Credit Acceptance for our vehicle loan, we had some difficulties paying the large monthly payment. Credit Acceptance created an alternate payment schedule for us, which we upheld to the payment plan until the time in XX/XX/2023 when we paid off the vehicle. During this time, even though we were making payments according to the payment plan Credit Acceptance designed, they were consistently reporting late payments. I do not understand if we were making all payments on the agreement we had in place & they were accepting the monthly payments, how could these payments be considered as LATE I have contacted Credit Acceptance on 2 occasions since XX/XX/2023 to have these remarks removed. These derogatory remarks have had a lasting impact on my report, making it impossible to receive any opportunity for loan approval. I pray that you can assist me. I desperately need a resolution.

I have not only filed a report with you before but also the credit agencies and the creditor, Credit Acceptance. I am so tired of this! I want the account XXXX removed based on the law 15 U.S. Code 1681a - Definitions ; rules of construction under ( 2 ) exclusions letter B. I will attach it to my complaint. I want this removed ASAP. I am currently consulting a lawyer. I have anxiety that this has contriuted to. I am also a victim of the breach at XXXX. I keep being told by the credit agency to call the creditor and they tell me to call the credit agency. I was even told by Credit Acceptance that they would remove it and they didnt. I called them back and they wouldnt honor it. What a joke! Where is the customer service and law abiding companies.

I was affected my COVID-19 severely and wrote to credit acceptance to request that they remove the late payments off my credit report due to me becoming unemployed. They never responded to me nor wrote me back. While reviewing my credit files I discovered that they just put comments on my report " affected by natural disaster ''. Which doesn't help me all, but yet they still reported my late payments. Then they created a program where they would not report payments to the credit bureaus but yet still reported late payments on my credit file. This company is very deceiving and destroyed my credit. Also I contacted the bank recently to voluntary surrender the vehicle they stated they already had a repossession order out for the vehicle almost a month before I called. But stated that it will be reported as a regular repo on my credit. And also failed to contact me in regards to that. XXXX XXXX.

On XX/XX/2018 I filed a written dispute ( USPS Certified mail # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) directly with Credit Acceptance Corporation located in XXXX, Michigan regarding inaccurate payment history they posted to my consumer credit reports. I identified and list each error by month and year. Under the Federal Law, I requested copies of specific records that they keep during the normal course of business. I waited more than 30 days to her the results of the investigation and view copies of invoices and payments that I requested. To date Credit Acceptance has not investigated nor responded to my dispute or request for inaccurate payment history to be deleted from my credit reports. Thus far Credit Acceptance Corporation has ignored me and the law. I am requesting your assistance in having Credit Acceptance comply with the law and remove the inaccurate payment history from my credit reports.

Credit Acceptance has been and still is to date, violating my federally protected rights not only under the TILA but FDCPA and the FCRA. Credit Acceptance is using Extortionate means to coerce and swindle me into paying a alleged debt that is primarily for family, personal and household use violating 18 USC 894. It is unlawful to punish a consumer on an extension of credit and the employees/agents of the company that has handled this account assume criminally liable and can face up to 20 years in jail. Credit Acceptance has violated the FDCPA infringing upon my rights to privacy, sending a 3rd party repo company flashing there lights on my home with the intent to harass and oppress me into paying the alleged debt disregarding my Cease and Desist violating 15 USC 1692c ( c ) and 15 USC 1692d. I am now ACTING IN GOOD FAITH giving your company a chance to rectify this dispute. Check attachment!

Im still trying to figure out the fees charged by this company and how my payments are applied. I was on a payment arrangement to make payment for a pass due amount. an amount that the company was saying was 4 months past due even though I make a payment every month. My car was repossesed even though I had arrangement to make payment. I was quoted an amount that was due to get vehicle back and a total due with repo fees. Once I paid the amount to get vehicle back I was told another amount. They said that they added a " Key Fee '', for a key that I did not receive when I picked up vehicle. I was also told that I had 30 days from the day XXXX picked vehicle up to make a payment, but the scheduled payments, which included the key fee, for today, but told me that I could call back and change to later if needed. I called today and was told no changes and that my vehicle would be repossesed again.

I ordered a payoff on my car on XX/XX/2021 XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX the payoff qoute was {$XXXX}. During the call with the I verified that this payoff was correct and after receiving the payoff the difference would be requested from the gap insurance to pay the loan in full. I negotiated an amount of {$XXXX with the insurance company which was mailed and received by credit acceptance corp at XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX. the gap insurance payment sent was {$XXXX} = XXXX is the total amount of both payments. Credit acceptance now claims I owe an additional XXXX payable by XXXXXXXX XXXX.as of today at XXXX am on XX/XX/XXXX. The loan is therefore paid in full and should reflect that on my credit report so that I can purchase a new vehicle. this vehicle was totaled out due to a non fault accident and Credit acceptance is causing further damages by not showing this vehicle paid in full.

I reached out to XXXX, XXXX and XXXX via certified mail starting XXXX after pulling my credit reports to update incorrect information on my credit report. One of the accounts in dispute was for Credit Acceptance Corp and showed as a repossession on my credit file with all three major credit bureaus. For over a year now, Credit Acceptance Corp continues to " verify the account as accurate '' without providing me the documents necessary to validate this account. This account is not mine however the credit bureaus insist on accepting the false verification from Credit Acceptance Corp without any documents proving the validity of the account. I have sent 3 letters ( On XXXX XXXX, on XX/XX/2021 and on XX/XX/2021 ) and Credit Acceptance Corp has refused and or ignored my requests for proper documentation representing this account is accurate and of my responsibility, yet they report it as such.

This is XXXX XXXX XXXX, who is submitting this CFPB complaint myself, and to inform you that there is no third party involved in the process. I have a loan with CREDITACPT. I have always made my payments on time yet there was a 120-day late state. Another thing, this was an illegal repossession followed by illegally reporting on my credit report ; this should have been investigated and corrected immediately. I tried contacting XXXX and XXXX Credit Bureaus requesting a complete payment history with this account for me to review the exact date on which the late payments and repossession were posted. Unfortunately, there was no successful resolution provided nor feedback heard from the concerned Bureaus. There was definitely an error on their part. The bureaus are condoning illegal behavior and willfully in violation of FCRA. REMOVE THIS REPOSSESSION ACCOUNT COMPLETELY FROM MY CREDIT REPORT.

To Whom It May Concern, Credit Acceptance Corportation, who controls my car loan, has reported missing payments after a repossession in XXXX of XXXX. I have a payment arrangement made with said company after the repossession fees were paid off. All of the payments per the payment arrangement have been made on time or early since XXXX of XXXX of XXXX. On my credit report Credit Acceptance Corportation has reported no payments have been made towards this loan since XXXX of XXXX, which is incorrect as payments have been made on time or early since XX/XX/XXXX. I have contacted said company and disputed this on my credit report multiple times, with no resolution offered. This is defamation of my character and credit worthiness, and I would like this resolved so XXXX XXXX, XXXX, and other credit reporting agencies can correct this information and update my account so I can purchase a home.

I no longer was able to maintain the car. I called CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPOR and explained to them the sittuation. They told me they was going to pick up the car, sell it, and let me know what was the diffrence in the balance. Time so like 6 months pass by and I have not heard from them so I gave them a call, and they told me that they changed their minds and never went to pick up the car niether did they notify me of their actions and I was lost. The car was lost in the pound and they refuse to take accountablity for there actions. It is huge problem for me as it has a negative affect on my credit report. When investigating just play the phone calls as they are recorded, and all of the evidence is there.

I believe this company has poor customer service and lack of compassion for its customers.They erroneously reported my payment as late in XX/XX/2020 during a pandemic which is very insensitive and inaccurate reporting on their behalf. They compliance offers fail to thoroughly investigate this matter and I have furnished bank statement which do not reflect late payments in the month they have reported on my credit. I have paid on time and more than the required payment on loan. I will continue to place complaints until this matter is resolved. I would never recommend anyone to use Credit Acceptance for their auto loan provider.

Good afternoon, Five years ago, I did take out a loan with Credit acceptance. Unfortunately the past two years, I have had significant health challenges that led to my need to create payment plans. There were several times that I spoke to credit acceptance and the representative did in fact say that as long as the payment plans were in place, I would not have a mark on my credit. However, upon reaching out to the XXXX, the representative in compliance, better known as " Z, '' called me. She was extremely abrasive and informed me that she would not review all of the calls and would not make any changes. Additionally, she said that she didn't believe that the XXXX dispute said that the company would make changes. I know that this company is a sub prime lender but at the time, I was in college and needed the loan. Please help as this is the only thing that is derogatory on my credit.

Back in 2014 I went to a car lot called XXXX XXXX. Was under the assumption that I was doing By-here-pay-here which doesnt include a financial bank. I gave the car agent {$500.00} down and he said hed work out the rest. He actually opened and fraudulent applied for an loan told the financial bank Credit Acceptance that I put down {$1300.00} just to get me approved. I didnt know until I started getting notifications in the mail. Within a month the car went down and had to be given back to the car lot. Once I talked again to Credit Acceptance they agreed to close the account and advised me they do not lend to that car lot again. A police report was made because my informs was used to open this account. I have that filed with XXXX Police Dept. They representative I spoke with at Credit Acceptance her name was XXXX and to this day this loan is still on my credit report fraudulently.

I was making payments on vehicle, vehicle was inoperative and unable to drive. Filled chapter XXXX and was making payment to courts to pay loan off. During the process a roommate took my truck and it broke down in the middle of the road as the transmission was going bad and this person was told not to drive. I was unable to retrieve vehicle from tow yard and loan company repossessed vehicle. Then they left vehicle at tow yard and did not even try to sell to recoup some of the money owed. At the time of the repossession the vehicle had a acv of less than XXXX. I had already paid over XXXX and now they are reporting late payments to the credit agencies and causing a great strain on my credit rating. I feel if they never tried to recoup their money from selling vehicle than how do they know how much I owe? It could have sold for a few XXXX and my balance would have been manageable.

Credit acceptance is being reported as a collection on all 3 of my credit bureaus, this was NEVER a charge off/collection. This was an auto loan with monthly installments. I paid it off in full XX/XX/2020 with no remaining balance. This account should NOT be considered a charge off/collection account. I have sent two letters to credit acceptance with NO response from them so I am asking for your help. I had XXXX in XXXX and got behind in this auto payment but always paid it so its really disheartening that they have put it under a collection/charge off because this was never the case. I paid it weekly and then paid it off. Thank you for looking into this as I am trying to purchase a home for my family of XXXX with my XXXX being in XXXX. I really need this deleted off my credit bureaus if possible. Credit Acceptance XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, MI XXXX XXXX XXXX - account # XXXX

I could no longer make the payments so I had to return the packet to the dealer and I can not have a car parked in the street without plates and I didnt not have anywhere else to park the car so the car ended up denting sent to the dealer to figure out what was wrong and it ended it in being repossessed due to non payment.

I was told I was getting the car for XXXX or so but the paperwork that was sent to me by credit acceptance was way over XXXX or so .. and they will not work with me on my payments they will not refinance to help me get my payment monthly down.. they have called after I was late on one of my payments saying they would come repo my car... I have told them that there is over 5 recalls on this car and I have been waiting for over 4 months to get the parts so the XXXX people can fix it .. and two of the recalls are on my airbags they are nonfiction at this time and that my traction and stabilization unit is not right so therefore whenever it rains the car tends to want to slide to one side or another and it tries to pull to one side or the other .. very dangerous.. they still said they couldn't help me or let me try to get another car that does not have dangerous recalls on it..

On Wednesday, XX/XX/2021, I met with Mr. XXXX at XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, IL to test drive a vehicle. When I arrived Mr. XXXX said that I needed to fill out a form on his computer and supply them with a copy of my driver 's license in order to test drive the car. I asked him specifically, not to pull my credit report until I had test-driven the vehicle because I had pre-planned to drive the vehicle to an XXXX XXXX Store to get a free diagnostic on the car since I did not have a mechanic with me. He said he would not run my credit report until I decided I wanted the car, but unfortunately he did a hard inquiry on my credit report anyway without my consent. The documents attached are ( 1 ) a snapshot of the hard inquiry on my credit report and ( 2 ) the diagnostic report from the XXXX XXXX XXXX with the vehicle 's VIN # as proof that I test drove the car from their facility.

Reached to credti acceptance atleast 20 times and no result. My loan is faulty. Warranty of XXXX Gap of XXXX Loan fee of XXXX They were all described as mandatory by dealership. Loan company still hasnt called me to further investigate. The taxes and fees were wrong plus i had to pay another {$320.00} out of pocket to register the car. The bill of sale is completely wrong Also extra XXXX was added to my loan which is incurring interest also. I removed the waranty and Gap but they wont fix my rate of balance with monthly payments. I took out a XXXX loan which turned to be XXXX with all the extras. Car dealership is now pending court hearing for refusing to give back down payment. this was already a super high interest loan at 25 % The loan company is very negligent and uneducated. Its very scary they work with dealers as such. My apologies i didnt proof read.

I called the company ( Credit Acceptance Corporation ) about five years ago when I first notice that this fraudulent activity was on my report. I contacted the company and informed them that I never did business with them and if they could removed that from my credit report. I also informed them that I am a victim of identity theft. The company informed me that they will look into the situation and take care of it but never did. I have been disputing this activity for some time now and was told by the credit bureau that the company keep sending it back as accurate because it was being paid on. I explained to the credit bureau that whomever stole my identity was paying until they decided to stop and the company should understand that. I have done everything to prove to them that it is not mines and the company is still refusing to remove this account form my credit report.

I was involved in a car crash in XXXX where my car was totaled and the gap insurance paid off car which has left a balance on car of XXXX plus dollars. And it is still showing open with a late payment for XXXX years consecutively. I have made several attempts to pay debt but also asking the creditor to remove late payments they are refusing which is very disheartening. Because this is crushing my credit worthiness and affecting my life from moving forward. I am willing to pay amount in full but I have been trying to work with Credit Acceptance and they are making it very difficult for me. According to 15 USC 1666 B timing of payments a creditor should not treat a payment under a open ended consumer credit plan as late for any purpose. unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required.

I am formally making a written complaint against Credit Acceptance Corp. I recently reviewed my credit report and noted where the balance is incorrect. This account is currently in collections and has not recieved a payment from me personally since XX/XX/XXXX. I have not spoken with anyone or agreed to settle or make any type of payment or arrangement. Under law only a certain amount of intrest can be added to a collections account. Credit Acceptance has been adding interest to this account since XX/XX/XXXX. Again I have not physically spoke with anyone or agreed to any payment arrangement. Per my credit report {$88.00} was recently added to the balance on XX/XX/XXXX. Projecting as if I made a payment bringing the account current. The account has not been current since XXXX. This account is 7 years and the last payment was made again in XXXX. This is fraud and forgery.

My identity was stolen in 2018. The individual that committed this crime apparently purchased a vehicle from Credit Acceptance Corp. The individual XXXX XXXX pled XXXX and went to XXXX. I have submitted all police reports regarding this crime to this company that I know nothing about. The Contract that Credit Acceptance Corp produced does not have my signature anywhere on it. It has my SS # wrong, my date of birth wrong, my address wrong, my name wrong, and my employment wrong. My attorney has written them habitually, however, IT IS STILL ON MY CREDIT REPORT! Due to this Company, my interest rates are higher for my vehicles and credit cards, can't obtain financing for a home. I have submitted the Federal ID Theft Documents, Police Report, and case number to both XXXX on 4 different occasions and XXXX AND CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORP will NOT REMOVE IT FROM MY CREDIT REPORT.

Credit acceptance reposed my vehicle when it was totaled ( wrecked ). They picked my car up from the garage where I was trying to get the car fixed. They did not give me an opportunity to wait for my insurance claim even though they did not give me anything towards my car. Now credit acceptance is charging me interest every month on a car I do not have that was totaled but they sold it per Agent I spoke to recently for {$3000.00}. However they have sent me a bill for {$5000.00} to pay them for the car. They are reporting XXXX on my credit report every month and charging interest. The car was only XXXX I believe when I purchased in XXXX. They have rude agents who do not try to give u the information when asked. I wish I never dealt with this loan shark of an auto dealership.I know they will try to Sue because I know many people who they have came after in the long run.

The vehicle was totaled in an accident in XX/XX/XXXX, and paid by the insurance. Ive called them before and theyll say they are going to remove this account but they never do.

Since the covid19 credit acceptance has been wrongly reporting false things in my account. Im effected by the covid19 and theyre suppose to submit that to the credit bureaus but theyre not. Theyre putting delinquencies on my credit report which makes it look like its my fault the world has corona virus. Inaccurate remarks on my credit report lowered my score by 120 points. Theyre were order by the government not to report any foul or delinquencies to the credit bureaus and they still are. Theyre doing it to all if there customers to force a payment when the world is shutdown. I already discussed this with the three credit bureaus and won. Some higher entity needs to check credit acceptance as company. Many Americans are out of work and have no ways to get nothing. We didnt create corona virus. This is fraud and illegal and legal actions need to be taken rapidly.

XX/XX/XXXX, I was involved in an automobile accident. This accident was in the state of North Carolina where I hydroplaned from bad weather conditions. Due to this event, it lead me to hardship because that was my only vehicle I had in the in state. I was involved in a subrogation between XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX. I purchased gap coverage insurance at the time I got the vehicle. To my knowledge, I had full coverage and the vehicle was deemed as a total loss. The vehicle was seized by the insurance company and their was no offer to settle of any. XXXX XXXX has not contacted me. Even though I have wrote several letters dating to this year on XX/XX/XXXX about the matter. They still continue to damage my credit and report falsely with balances that should not be owed. This company obligations to uphold the federal law for reporting has failed in my eyes.

In XXXX of 2016 I bought a used car at a dealership via an auto loan for consumers with less than perfect credit from Credit Acceptance Corporation. The car was a lemon & the dealership wouldn't do anything about it so I refused to keep paying for a car that wasn't even in working order. I called the loan company & explained the situation to them & they also refused to help in any way. Months after they repossessed the vehicle they took money out of my mother 's bank account. I was on the account due to her being ill & in a XXXX home. The money they took wasn't even mine & it caused a payment for rent at my mom 's XXXX home to be declined. This caused the XXXX home to report me as misusing elder funds & I was investigated by the state for their report. The state found that I wasn't misusing her funds but it was unsettling to be accused of something like that.

I was then asked to send in a copy of my identification, in which I did. It was a couple of days when I called back and spoke with someone of higher authority whom stated to me to me that it will be removed within a week. That week came and went along with years which I have been disputing ever since. This company has been putting me through it and back all because Credit Acceptance did not honor their words as a company. Very dishonest company I am still to this day disputing this account and Credit Acceptance each time will change from it from repo and negative to repo no data but will still have a balance of XXXX Credit Acceptance is a company I will never do business with.

I let them know I was relocating out of state in XXXX and would like it taken care of by then. I made multiple calls back in between XXXX to XXXX for them to pick up the vehicle. On XX/XX/XXXX I received a confirmation call the the vehicle had been reposted from the driveway of my old home. I had already moved at this point. My credit report was updated the following month showing it as a closed settled account. It sat there as a closed settled account until XX/XX/XXXX when it randomly showed up as an active loan with missed payments on my credit report. I have contacted the company and they are now stating they we never repossessed the car. They claim it never showed as settled. This is incredibly frustrating and illegal.

In XXXX of 2017 my wife and I were purchasing a vehicle XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Tx XXXX. The installment agreement says XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Tx XXXX. The issue is that the finance company, Credit Acceptance Corporation, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX, MI XXXX, and the dealer did not allow me to sign the original paperwork. I was out of town and the paperwork was pushed through without our consent and without my signatures. I complained to the Texas Attorney Generals office. The only result was that the finance company placed a computer generated contract on my account portion of their website. I noticed that the downpayment information is fraudelent. They entered a dollar amount higher than we actually put down. They refuse to acknowledge this situation. I believe they committed fraud with my application.

I am writing this complaint because Credit Acceptance is taking advantage of my rights. They keep calling and harassing me and placing my car into repossession. I am facing hardship right now and advised the company of my situation and they still placed my car under repossession. I also looked on my credit report recently and noticed that they are illegally reporting information on my credit report, and it need to be removed immediately. Under 15 USC 1681e ( b ) it states this ( b ) accuracy of report whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates. According to 15 USC 1681i ( 5 ) treatment of inaccurate or unverifiable information. This information needs to be deleted from my credit report.

On numerous occasions Credit Acceptance has used abusive, false and misleading collections practices, all in an effort to bully me into paying a debt I dont owe. Theyve refused verification of debt acknowledgment 's according to 15 USC 1692g. The process only verifies that Im the original creditor. Theyve slandered my name and posted negative information to my consumer report, which is a direct violation of 15 USC 1666b and 1666a. Recently they tried to repossess my vehicle and force me to renter into the same alleged contract which contains blatant violations of TILA, FDCPA, FCRA and empty disclosure 's in an attempt to harm me financially the consumer/natural person. The most recent violation are Harassment and Abuse 15 USC 1692d ( 1 ) ( 2 ) ( 3 ) ( 5 ) 15 USC 1692f ( 5 ) ( 6 ) Unfair Practices all violation to federal consumer debt collections laws.

My name is XXXX XXXX, and I am sending this request myself to address the inaccuracies on my Credit Reports. I have a loan with CREDITACPT XXXX Balance Owed : {$12000.00}. I have always made my payments on time yet there was a 120-day late state. Another thing, this was an illegal repossession followed by illegally reporting on my credit report ; this should have been investigated and corrected immediately. I tried contacting 3 Credit Bureaus requesting a complete payment history with this account for me to review the exact date on which the late payments and repossession were posted. Unfortunately, there was no successful resolution provided nor feedback heard from the concerned Bureaus. There was definitely an error on their part. The bureaus are condoning illegal behavior and willfully in violation of FCRA. PLEASE REMOVE FROM MY REPORT IMMEDIATELY.

I made all of my payments to Credit Acceptance within the 30 days that was required before reporting negatively to credit reporting agencies. The company has only reported my last payment as late, which again was not 30 days late. The payment is due on the XXXX, I made the payment on the XX/XX/XXXX. I then learned in making the last payment that late fees magically appeared. This was then going to add a payment, that was not expected. The vehicle has been paid in full since XX/XX/XXXX, then an added payment of {$340.00} in late fees. This has negatively effected my credit I have worked so hard to fix since my divorce in XX/XX/XXXX, and impacted my ability to purchase a new home. I have contacted Credit Acceptance and disputed their information they are reporting. They have refused to remove the information, therefore I am looking to take the next steps.

The company repossessed vehicle in XXXX after they refused to honor my valid vehicle warranty for a failed engine. I tried talking with them several times to negotiate vehicle loan obligations due to the engine failure in less than a year of purchase if I replaced the engine myself. They declined all offers, turned the vehicle off so I couldn't even start it to get a second diagnosis on it. They sent notice that they wrote the debt off {$4500.00} in XXXX. But contrary Now they are trying to garnish my wages 8 years later. This is so unfair. They claimed they got against judgement on me in XX/XX/XXXX, which I never knew about, nor has it ever even been on any of my credit reports. This is unjust and just wrong. Now they've boosted the debt to over {$7000.00}. I'm XXXX any only work part time just to be able to feed myself. This is crazy. Please help.

I have a car lease with credit acceptance, I fell behind on my payments due to having XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX and being out of work. I was in contact with credit acceptance they said the only they could help me was to add the past due to the back end of my lease making my payment {$780.00}. My payments are also not getting reported that I pay or being allocated correctly and I can not get into another car or even turn in this car because of the way they report. When I make my payments its still showing that Im behind almost an year even though they added my behind payments into my lease, also I didnt sign a new contract for them to do that. They put my car into repo status and I still have my car. I have been in contact with credit acceptance on why they dont report on the months I make payments and they replied we just dont do that

Credit Acceptance is engaging in deceptive acts or practices in violation of the Consumer Financial Protection Act of 2010 by misrepresenting key loan terms, including the true principal, finance charge, and APR. The complaint further alleges that Credit Acceptance is engaging in abusive acts or practices by taking unreasonable advantage of consumers lack of understanding of the risk of default and the severity of the consequences associated with its loans, and taking unreasonable advantage of consumers inability to protect their interests in selecting or using Credit Acceptances loans.

They claimed the seller could, the seller claims they could. I made this call on the XX/XX/XXXX. They extended it until this month and called before XXXX XXXX local today to complain that I had not made the payment. Now they will only extend it to XX/XX/XXXX. And after that they will do it only month by month. And continue to call before XXXX XXXX local

Upon reviewing, I see that Credit Acceptance Corporation had hidden fees in my car loan contract. I tried to tell them after purchasing the vehicle but less than 1 year later they repossessed my car due to impossibly high payments that were not the original terms. I explained this in person when I went to pick my car up after having it repossessed. They didnt care. I tried to keep up with my payments but they raised my payments a third time, I know now I should not have allowed them to do this. They repossessed the car right after I came home with my XXXX and after that I just stopped trying to keep that car. This company has violated me. I was XXXX XXXX XXXX paying over {$500.00} a month for a used car for two years. The car shouldve been paid off but on my credit it says I owe over XXXX which is not what I signed to purchase the car for.

As of XX/XX/2021 Credit Acceptance was named an entity in my finalized divorce decree as solely the responsibility of my ex husband. After the divorce decree was provided to both him and I we both informed the company of this. After 12 months the company has updated the account on my credit report as active, open and 120 days past due. This should not be on MY REPORT! This became solely his debt. I even provided the company and all 3 credit bureaus with the decree supporting this statement and nothing has been done. The bureaus just report back as verified with no explanation. In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act XXXX Credit Acceptance Corporation, has violated my rights.. 15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A states I have the right to privacy and any consumer reporting agency can not furnish a account without my written instructions.

Purchased a vehicle thru Credit Acceptance, Payments on the XXXX of the month, once i found this out I called them and told them I need payments on the XXXX of the month. They refused the change of date. I found out several months later that they were charging me late fees every month. Called and spoke again with them about the late fees and they told me to add in the late fee each month in which I did, after a few months they demanded the payments be made of the back fees plus keep my payments up. I told them I could not afford to send them XXXX dollars in late fees plus the monthly payments. They said turn the vehicle in and I did as they asked. Now my credit report states that I owe what I paid for the car after 2 years of payments. They are a preditor company, they would not work with me at all. All I expect is the truth in the report.

About 4 years ago my husband was sent home from his job early after putting in his 2 weeks notice. This was 3.5 weeks before his new job was to start. I called the loan company as we lived in Arizona a right to work state cause we didnt get paid. The loan company asked if I knew when we'd get paid at that time I did not. We missed 2 payments as we went 6 weeks without pay. We made a payment and set up auto pay biweekly. The auto payments monthly were {$200.00} more than my payment. We recently applied for a home loan only to find out the loan company reported the last 2 years and 2 months of payments late. One auto pay we never missed a payment. I have contacted the company and they told me I'm out of luck. I finally read the reviews on the company and found this happens often and in fact they have had several lawsuits around this matter.

Late payments have been placed on my account. When it shouldnt have after a total loss in XX/XX/XXXX. I did a payment arrangement for {$100.00} a month. I guess the system was still doing {$320.00} a month. So therefore late payments was added to my credit report and it also took my score down. I called to talk to them about it but they refuse to take the late payment Off. Also I have seen the balance go up and down on this account also I also tried to bring that to their attention. The dates of the late payments on his account is XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. Im not sure if they have any other late payments because they have not updated the account since it looks like. This has also stopped me from getting in new vehicle after I had another total loss. XX/XX/XXXX the amount change from XXXX to XXXX and my score dropped.

My pay checks were being garnished in XXXX so I had to file a motion to do installment which was granted in XX/XX/XXXX my Installment is to pay {$150.00} a month until paid in full but credit acceptance is negatively reporting on my credit every month as missed payment as if the loan is still open when we went to court in XX/XX/XXXX. It was ordered by the court I pay $ XXXX monthly if not they would garnish my checks as of XX/XX/XXXX over a year ago and they are still reporting negative on my report. I went back to court and I was able to have the payments lowered to {$75.00}. Even after the judge ordered the garnishments to stop. Credit acceptance refused and still took money from my income ultimately they ended up having to pay me my money back. So Credit acceptance is not a good company they forced payments from me That I didnt have.

On XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX I submitted payments of {$800.00} dollars to Credit Acceptance Corp in regards to a loan I aquired on a used car. The monthly car note is that of {$520.00}, and I made the initial {$800.00} payments as a safety net for if I came upon financial hard times. As of XX/XX/XXXX, I have been unable to make the {$520.00} payment, so I contacted Credit Acceptance and asked that the initial over payments of {$800.00} be applied to the car note currently due, and I was informed by Credit Acceptance that those initial {$800.00} payments were deffered back to the account from which the came. Credit Acceptance Corp has not provided me with any proof that those payments were deffered however, and are currently charging me late fees that have succeeded my monthly car note, placing me further in debt.

I've attempted to clear my past due balance as I was out of work for XXXX weeks due to complications of a sickness I had which has now subsided. My income was non-existent and I called the company multiple times to resolve and all they have told me was that " sorry, we can not help you ''. I was asked to make multiple payments within weeks of each other as I come out of this hardship which I can not do and I have made them aware. I know lenders do have solutions for situations like mine but for some reason have chosen not to help me. I am able and willing to pay them going forward but can not simply write them a check for the past due because I had no income during the time I was delinquent.

Recently, I received a copy of my credit report and found several inquiries and accounts on my credit report that were not opened by me. I don't have any knowledge of these accounts being open. They were opened fraudulently. I understand that under federal law, ( the Fair Credit Reporting Act. ) unauthorized inquiries, and fraudulent accounts shall not be allowed to be placed on my file unless I have approved it.The presence of these fraudulent accounts and inquiries on my credit report constitutes inaccurate information, which must be removed under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Respondent, please have the following inquiries removed from my credit file immediately because I did not authorize them, these creditors do not possess my signature, on any documentation, conveying my authorization to inquiry for a loan, or a line of credit.

Due to losing my job I was unable to make payments on time, however I always contacted the company to set up a payment arrangement. Last month they took the car and I called and made a payment arrangement of {$250.00} on XX/XX/XXXX and {$430.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX I called to make the payment on to find out where I could go to retrieve the car. This is when I was told the car was sold on XX/XX/XXXX, they said they were gon na try to find out why it was sold. On the XXXX they said nothing could be done because they sold it at an auction, that they were sorry because it was a mistake on their side and that we were gon na get the {$250.00} back from the first payment. We've been paying the car since XX/XX/2017, with really high interest. A car that was worth {$14000.00}, was financed for {$31000.00} and was sold for {$11000.00}.

Creditor- CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORP After vehicle was sold to me and later found out that it was a bad deal because vehicle could not drive shortly after getting it, Creditor told me that they were write off the loan. A few month later the loan showed on credit report as charged off that hurt my credit score. Years later on XX/XX/XXXX my score dropped 114 points, when i checked report it said that Credit Acceptance Corp, change the remarks on my credit and started reporting the account from charged to 30 days late. the loan was opened XX/XX/XXXX. Credit report shows 32 charge off status reported. Creditor is reporting inaccurately on my report that is hurting my credit. Account went from reporting 32 charge off payment status to reporting 30 days late on XX/XX/XXXX. I would like this to be reviewed and or reported correctly/deleted.

I obtained an account with credit acceptance back in XXXX. Unfortunately, the vehicle got repossessed. Earlier this year, I contacted them to settle my debt. We agreed on a set amount and they agreed to be removed and deleted off of my credit report and also send me the discharge of lien info proving that I paid my loan off. Ive been trying since XX/XX/XXXX to get them removed from my credit report. Each time I dispute, it says that the info on my report is correct according to them. This last time, I actually called them to see what the issue was. They informed me I needed to download a dispute form and mail it in to their credit department. And so I did. I waited about 16 days and received an update via email stating that they are not removing themselves from my report and that drop my credit score 20 pts! Im so hurt I want to cry

The original loan was with Credit Acceptance and the amount was for {$11000.00}. The loan is now at {$22000.00} which is 50 % interest rate. The car was a lemon and told them we wanted to do a voluntary repossession. They never came to get it. They then sold the account to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. They took us to court and won the judgement and a lien was put on our bank account and then emptied. Credit Acceptance is still reporting on my husbands and my credit reports when they sold the account. The original loan was opened XX/XX/XXXX. The judgement that XXXX XXXX received against us was XX/XX/XXXX. I want credit acceptance to be removed from our credit reports as the account holder. They just dropped our scores over XXXX points because they reported it as 180 days late, which was years ago, and added another {$100.00} to the balance.

This issue is regarding an auto loan I had dating back to XXXX, with Credit Acceptance Corp. It was a used XXXX and the transmission went out on the vehicle, I called and had them pickup the vehicle. I only had the vehicle for 24 months and the transmission went out. Credit Acceptance is reporting the vehicle on my consumer file as a repossession, the vehicle was not a repossession, it was an involuntary repossession because the vehicle was sent back because it had a faulty transmission. In addition, Credit Acceptance Corp is claiming I owe a balance of {$4100.00} dollars for a lemon they sold me. This account should not appear on my consumer file, Credit Acceptance Corp is reporting inaccurate information on my consumer file and this account should not appear on my credit file. This account should be removed from my credit file.

The account with credit acceptance was closed in XXXX when I voluntarily surrounded the vehicle due to the fact I had a XXXX and could XXXX XXXX any more. I called the company and told them what happened and to come get it. Since then they have put a garnishment on my check as of XX/XX/XXXX and they receive it biweekly and when I disputed the account information on my credit report that the balance they had was wrong because they werent giving me credit for the payments which is now over {$900.00} as of today they reported back saying I only paid {$240.00} and reopened the account and increased the balance and said I was behind on payment I have check stubs to prove how much Ive paid that they are not reporting and that Im not behind because Im being garnished biweekly and the balance should not have been increased over {$200.00}.

The creditor listed me as late for XXXX and XXXX payment and sent me a final payoff letter dated XX/XX/2020. That documentation alone corroborates that I wasn't late in addition to the fact that I was no longer in possession of the vehicle after XX/XX/2020.

I have a loan with CREDITACPT with the account number XXXX. I have always made my payments on time yet there was a 120-180 days late stating in the payment history. Another thing, this was an illegal repossession followed by illegally reporting on my credit report ; this should have been investigated and corrected immediately. I've already tried contacting the 3 Credit Bureaus requesting a complete payment history with this account for me to review the exact date on which the late payments and repossession were posted. Unfortunately, there was no successful resolution provided nor feedback heard from the concerned Bureaus. There was definitely an error on their part. There was definitely an error on their part. The bureaus are condoning illegal behavior and willfully in violation of FCRA. PLEASE REMOVE FROM MY REPORT IMMEDIATELY.

Credit Acceptance Corporation added and Auto debt to my credit report report as a collection in the Amount of {$6000.00}. I have no knowledge/responsibility of this account and never received any letters/statements detailing charges or phone calls. In XXXX of XXXX Credit Acceptance Corporation changed the account status from a closed collection account to an open account status and changed the payment information after I disputed not having any knowledge of the account and attempted to verify the debt. They started reporting late payments every month from XX/XX/XXXX. The payment histories they added have drastic differences between each of the credit bureau reports when I have never paid on the account. I sent them a final demand letter on XX/XX/XXXX to send me information to verify the debt. They will not respond to my request.

This is going to be kinda vague. I do have XXXX and XXXX. I have a big problem with the financial company I'm using due to my XXXX. To ask simple generic questions is talking over an hour. Before I got coupon book I asked once I make payment if I wanted to pay extra what would I do. I could never get an answer because of protocol. I've asked for help understanding things an they seem not to be able to stay on subjest. I call to set up auto pay and they refused to help me because they wanted me to make a payment first. The account wasn't past due. With my XXXX I usually have to practice how I want to do! Hi ngs if you make me change it won't work. I've even had staff make comments about my XXXX. One person stated she knew someone with XXXX and based on that determined I didn't need help that I was just wanting to cause trouble.

I have an auto loan with Credit Acceptance that was approved in XX/XX/XXXX. I was making payments, and fell behind when the Covid hit and the community was, and still is on a stay at home mandate. The main concern is that I feel that the payment, interest rate isn't accurate. Maybe my interest rate isn't correct? There was an error on the odometer also when I initially purchased the vehicle. The Credit Acceptance was sending me letters for non-payment, even during covid, to pay the balance in full, then suddenly they wanted to settle for {$5000.00} I believe in XXXX, and at the beginning of XXXX they sent me a settlement letter that they would settle the debt for a little over {$6200.00}, reporting to the Credit Bureaus as settlement plaid less than full. The total payoff balance is {$33000.00} and the car is a XXXX XXXX XXXX.

I financed a truck with my now ex-husband. In my divorce I received the vehicle and was making timely payments until I lost my job. The finance company came and got the vehicle. I paid what I was behind to get the truck back. After picking it up I discovered that the transmission had been destroyed in the towing process and would cost me nearly {$4000.00} to repair. The finance company and towing company refused to help me resolve the issue and I sent the truck back. The finance company now says I owe more than I originally financed, claims to have sold the vehicle but refuses to provide me with documents showing in detail what it was sold for and what I owe. They call me and harass me every day and still refuse to provide me with documentation, even though it has been nearly a year since they originally picked up the vehicle.

On XX/XX/XXXX the primary on the car loan reached out to Credit acceptance to have a payment plan set up due to a financial hardship. They agreed to the payment plan, and we asked if it would affect the credit which we were told no it would not. I as the co-signer have been monitoring my credit report since XXXX when I got a notification the account went to delinquency. I filed a report with them that this was incorrect not only were we told that it would not affect my credit but also the amount owed. When myself as the cosigner saw the delinquency, I went ahead and paid it fully the total amount was XXXX and some change on the credit report they reported it as XXXX. Which is fully incorrect information. When i filed with Credit Acceptance they claim it is fully correct to report the false information along with a delinquency

I have tried to have this account corrected multiple times even previously filing a complaint with the CFPB. This account was set to be removed from my credit report as of this year as it had been reporting past due payments since XX/XX/2015. This past month the payment history was updated to remove those past due payments to allow the account to remain on my credit report for more than 7 years. This is an unfair abusive and deceptive act. I am done dealing with Credit Acceptance and their continued practices and I am ready to file legal action against them. This account went into default over 7 years ago and needs to be removed from my credit report. Additionally, the last payment received on the account is not accurate as it was not the last voluntary payment made. The last payment on this account made by me was in 2015.

I have an auto loan with Credit Acceptance a second chance finance company. I get harassing phone calls from them every month. They call the day after the loan is due and I tell them that I will pay this loan on the XXXX Friday of every month. Then the turn right back around and call me every day. I mean every day to ask what day I will be paying the loan and can I borrow the money from someone. That's disrespectful especially to someone whose told you what day the payment is going to be made on. Also, it's just plain old rude as heck. I have even asked if they could move my due date closer to the XXXX Friday of the month so I don't have to go thru this with them. Please help me get some relief from this creditor. I have never been harassed like this before. I pay my bills and I have a set order everyone gets paid in.

I had a auto loan through Credit Acceptance. In XXXX I totaled my car. In about a month, XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX paid off the loan in full. I have all documents proof. But credit acceptance refused to close my account and stop charging me monthly car payments $ XXXX. They charged me for 2 additional months after the car was paid off. I called them constantly begging them to stop, but they dragged it out as long as they could. Now I have a {$650.00} balance that is the worst thing on my credit report. It's the only negative thing on my report and is preventing me from getting another car. I've tried to dispute this with the credit acceptance company as well as all 3 credit bureaus and have gotten nowhere. I've been fighting this for months and it's completely holding up my life still. I shouldn't have to pay this.

The fair market value of this vehicle that I purchased through Credit Acceptance Corporation was met and now they are demanding thousands of dollars in interest. I had lost my job and the original loan was at a higher than legal amount interest rate which caused me to release the vehicle back to them voluntarily. I was garnished and met the initial amount of garnishment and now have to pay thousands more in interest. I was never allowed to appear in court due to never receiving court documentation at correct addresses. The amounts of monies paid, car sold at auction, fair market value and now interest owed on top of interest paid is not matching up. Credit Acceptance Corporation did to me what they did to citizens in Massachusetts, which won a lawsuit against them. I dont live in Massachusetts but am a victim as well.

Gave the car back in XX/XX/XXXX. * As of XX/XX/XXXX, account listed as CLOSED : written off/collection. * Then on XX/XX/XXXX, account changes to OPEN : past due 180 days, no payment since XXXX Credit score drops 100 pts. *On XXXX XXXX, account says OPEN : Affected by natural or declared disaster. Score rises 83 pts. * On XX/XX/XXXX, account say OPEN : Remark removed. Down 100 pts again,. I've disputed 3 times with no results. This is malicious, confusing and frankly, childish. I am retaining an attorney if this continues.

In XXXX my car repossessed and the law office of XXXX, XXXX and XXXX took over the loan. I set up a payment plan of XXXX a month and I have never missed a payment as it is directly withdrawn. In XX/XX/XXXX I called to offer a settlement, they said I owed XXXX, I offered XXXX to settle. I was told that they would get back to me and I didn't hear anything from them. I still remained making payments. Then in XXXX of XXXX I called to make another settlement offer and they told me that I owed XXXX. I asked how that could be when the last time I called I owed less and it was showing my balance go down on the credit apps that I have, XXXX and XXXX XXXX. They told me that those apps don't show the correct information. But that still does not make up for the fact that my balance hasn't gone down and I've been making payments.

I was initially filed a complaint in XX/XX/2021, Credit Acceptance responded that my balance was accurate. I have been paying {$200.00} every 2 weeks my remaining balance is {$130.00}, when I made this agreement Credit Acceptance stated they would stop collection which they have not, I never ask to be put on COVID-19 protection because I was paying {$200.00} every 2 weeks. Every month Credit Acceptance reports to the credit bureaus this is not right because I kept my promise to pay bi-weekly. The reporting is also not correct it shows a balance of over {$2000.00} which is not correct I'm attaching my payment ledger, also the last report stated Credit Acceptance sole my account to someone and they are putting in the reports monthly again which is not correct, I have and continue to communicate with Credit Acceptance.

I've never been late on my auto loan with Credit Acceptance. My husband was recently laid off due to XXXX and my hours reduced at my job. I contacted Credit Acceptance to see if they could defer my loan for 2 months until we get back to normal. I spoke wtih XXXX at Credit Acceptance. She was very rude and unwilling to offer any solutions to defer or make payment arrangements. She stated they are not offering those options and that we had to pay something on the loan anyway. She also stated that they would still report to the agencies that the account is late and that the credit agencies would be responsible for updating the account on your credit report. This company is not willing to assist any customers during this hardship. My account information is as follows : Credit Acceptance XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX

I spoke with Credit Acceptance after remaining balance was due after total vehicle loss. They worked out a monthly payment plan to be paid until paid in full. Payments of {$250.00} have been made each month since the agreement and the company still reported my account as delinquent. They informed me it didnt matter that I had an agreement to pay monthly and have been making my payments on time every month, that its still considered delinquent and Im in default. I have made four payments of {$250.00} since XXXX of this year ( 2018 ) with no issues or reporting to the credit agency. I did call to discuss this matter as to why they reported me and they told me they have the right to report me even though we agreed on a payment arrangement because I have not paid them in full and I am not paying them interest no longer.

I started a dispute with Credit Acceptance because I was treated unfairly for buying a car that was literally in the junkyard within a month after buying it. The dealership refused to give me another vehicle. The lending company ( Credit Acceptance ) refused to repossess a junk car. I tried to take the lending company to court and they refused the summons. Everything in life is not about money. The human factor of being deceived in the sale, and the expectation that I should pay for a junked car is unacceptable. In America, when you buy something that's broken, you take it back to the seller and get your money back, or have the item replaced. This is a Punitive action against me, solely for the purpose of ruining my life. When money means more than honesty, the ethics involved are lacking. That is called greed.

We have contacted them several times and they refuse to give us back our money. Straight out said they were keeping it and will not explain why. They said they would give us {$7.00}. This is fraudulent and I want my money back. They lied about the amount on the check they received from XXXX XXXX XXXX sales for the pay off.

The company Credit Acceptance is illegally using my information and incorrect info on my credit profile that is impacting my score. They have a car loan placed on my profile that they have changed the price on multiple times but never corrected the information on my profile that has been proven on both ends as incorrect. Legally the debt collector/collectors must update the correct info or remove the account if it isnt. It has been over 2 years the account has not been updated with the correct information. Also the company illegally repossessed my vehicle for the 2nd time and still have yet managed to update that the property they in fact sold at a auction and ( sent no paperwork ), and continues to show a negative balance for property they have and continues to only up date a negative price they claim i owe.

Didn't know much about car loan or credit until now. They sold the car and still have the full balance on my credit report. I did not know until now that I am responsible for the outstanding balance if there is one. So from 6 years until now the account is still open and reporting as late payments. XXXX has I made 0 payments on time and XXXX has I made 65 % payments on time. We both know all parties have to have the same thing this is inaccurate information on my credit report with payments making my credit report go downhill further I need help with this please

This vehicle was sold in a lien sale approved by the creditor. They were notified in 2018 of the sale of the vehicle. They continue to leave the account open, they wont update the value of the vehicle since its sale. This account has not been in collections or repossessed since its sale. They are reporting a car on my credit that should no longer be considered an open loan. The car was towed by the city while my spouse at the time was XXXX. He attempted to put in a request to have the loan XXXX due to his XXXX. They did not respond, they offered a settlement but why would we settle on a car they signed off on selling. The tow company received approval from them to sell the vehicle. They have failed to update the accurate value of the loan since the sale Ive made several attempts to have the status updated.

Credit acceptance corporation fraudulently misrepresented the loan that was allegedly financed by the company as a loan to the Buyer when in-fact it was a loan to the Dealership that they have employed unfair and deceptive practices to get the Buyer to pay the Dealership Loan through collections. Credit Acceptance corporation knows that it is a Lender to the Dealership but would have the Buyer believe it weren't so. The alleged amount financed is not True statement under Truth in Lending but rather they only pay 43 % of the alleged amount financed to maximize economic profits. The reason Credit Acceptance Corporation does this is because they only expect to collect 64 % of the alleged amount financed which is nothing more than the loan that they made to the Dealership for the rights to service the contracts.

My vehicle was hit in 2016 and totaled, my insurance told me they would handle it all. I never received a call, email or letter in the mail of the difference of my balance not being paid by my insurance. The only way I knew I owed {$1000.00} is because I paid to view my credit report. I called Credit Acceptance today to see what I could do to resolve the balance of {$1000.00} that they submitted to my credit report and they told me I owed over {$1700.00} to them because they are still accruing interest at 19 % since 2016. I asked why my credit report doesn't reflect this difference and the rep couldn't give me an answer. I asked to be transfer to a supervisor but I was told he was on another phone call. I don't think what they are doing is fair or legal since they have sent the balance to collections already

Contacted company about an auto loan showing in my name that is fraudulent. I did not open this auto loan. Auto loan agency stated I needed a police report, my signature on a piece of paper five times, copy of social security card and drivers license. I dont feel comfortable sending a copy of the last three items in that list. I sent them instead my FTC report along with only a copy of my drivers license and a personal bill to compare against on my drivers license address. Credit Acceptance is based out of Michigan according to the website and this loan was opened in XXXX XXXX they informed me when I live in Wisconsin. These dont add up and should have been a red flag when it tried to be opened. I also had a credit freeze through XXXX and XXXX at the time this was opened and they still opened the account.

This loan did not represent the fees, charges tacted on. This is violating me as a consumer I have complained several times I am suppose to be provided proof of what was done to the repossessed vehicle, I am suppose to be shown how {$3000.00} have been added to my deficiency balance. This company was Sued in another state for the same behaviors. This loan was not honorable the vehicle was no good after driven from the lot I was forced in this car by the dealership, its not the first of the lending hearing of this I was not allowed to use my warranty when car broke down a week later. The company needs to pull all calls made to lender I was told nothing could be done. The car wasnt worth sell which is why it was dismantled. Ive attached the most recent lawsuit in which I am a victim of this company as well.

I was sold a vehicle that stop running and required a lot of maintenance after a few months. When approved I was advise nothing was wrong with the vehicle, also the inspection was up to date. I constantly tried returning the vehicle but no luck. I was advised by Credit Acceptance Corp that if I did a voluntary repo they would have someone come get the vehicle, resell it, and not report it to any credit bureaus. This voluntary repo is being reported to all 3 CRAs and the information being reported in inaccurate. There are also 2 tradelines on my reports for this account and both are reporting different, and inaccurate information. I also disputed, and sent 2 dept validation letters and received no response. It has been passed 30 days and by law this debt must be removed, or addition action will be taken.

I let each of these companies know that I did not recognize the inquiries that THEY placed on my credit report. I asked each company to provide me with a written consent from me indicating that I agreed to the credit inquiry. After several hours on the phone getting nowhere with each of these companies and getting the runaround, I decided to send a formal letter to them ( each letter is attached ). I have found that most of the companies that are reporting information out on my credit report are receiving their " inquiry '' from a 3rd party and are not the actual furnisher of the data. This fact makes it even more imperative to see the written approval with my signature.

I most recently spoke to a representative from credit acceptance on XX/XX/2020. She confirmed that my initial past due balance was about {$3200.00} but could not explain how it has gone up to over {$4000.00} since then even after agreeing to pay more each month to reduce that amount. My account still shows as either XXXX or XXXX depending on who's reporting and none of the payment history is consistent across the 3 major bureaus. Even if I was 180 days past due my balance at worst with late fees would be around {$2600.00}. Its likely the total balance owed is incorrect as well because of this. It almost as if there are hidden fees or interest being added that was never discussed with me because my payments are not improving the past due status and this is affecting my credit more than it should be.

I bought a used XX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXX on XXXX XXXX. From XXXX XXXX. Financed through Credit Acceptance. The Dealer added extra charges that I did not approve. The Dealer had me sign all paperwork on his Desktop computer. He did not print them and go over them. He lied and said I had XXXX XXXX which I did not. He did not go over the price of the car or anything. When I looked at the Loan agreement. It says I owe {$22000.00}. Which is outrageous. The Dealer added my downpayment instead of subtracting it. Also, on XXXX XXXX. My car was stolen from right outside my patio. Thank God I got it back. By me not have gap insurance. I paid out {$30000.00} to get it out of impound yard, paid {$170.00} for window. I replaced ignition by myself. I want out of this loan and my downpayment back. Thank for your help

On XX/XX/23 I called to get my balance and past due amount and how many days. I was told that I was 12 days late and wouldnt be reported as late if payment of {$300.00} was made on XX/XX/23. On XX/XX/23 I was reported late. Ive called several times and has gotten the run around. They lied like the call would be pulled and that I would get a call back in 24-48 hours on several occasions. On XX/XX/23 I was told that the Credit Department sent paperwork to dispute this matter and as XXXX nothing has been mailed. They give the wrong information purposely to report you late and charge crazy amount of fees. This company was sued in XXXX of this year for the same reasons. This is absolutely ridiculous and due to their company constantly giving the incorrect information my credit score has been affected.

I am writing to delete the following information in my file. The items I need deleted are listed in the report. I ask that the items be deleted to correct my credit report. These creditors have reached out to me through letters even after cease and desist were told. Also if my information is sold to a collection agency without my consent this should not be reporting on my credit report. It has been more than 30 days since these disputes have been filed. I am unable to attain a home or get any credit because of these inaccuracies on my credit report. These accounts also were not finance charges. Only finance charges by law should be reflecting on my credit report. I would also like to receive damages for being homeless because of lack of credit because the bureaus report inaccurate information.

I made all my truck payment on time since XX/XX/2017. That's when I took out the Loan never Missed I payment till XXXX. I had a death in the Family and could not make the Payment by the due date. I contacted credit acceptance and told the money was not in my checking account for the XXXX XXXX payment. The payment was due on the XX/XX/XXXX but since I had auto payment the payment was moved to the XX/XX/XXXX. I made a double payment on the XX/XX/XXXX, Then on the XX/XX/XXXXcredit acceptance took out of my checking account another Payment for XXXX which is the XXXX payment so if they take the auto payment out on the XX/XX/XXXX of Month for the last 17 Months why would my payment be 30 Days Late if I made the payment on XX/XX/XXXX That is 30 days and they can not call it late till the XX/XX/XXXX.

I also followed up with an affidavit of truth on XX/XX/22 and it has yet to be rebutted line from line which stands TRUTH by law. I recently received another statement on XX/XX/22 from credit acceptance after I demanded to cease and desist which is a violation. I did not give consent for credit acceptance to contact me which is causing me personal damages. My initial letter for request of validation was sent and received by credit acceptance on XX/XX/XXXX, and there response was beyond the 30days that was given which has prolonged this. I am the original creditor which puts there company in federal violations.

It was a very difficult time as a single mother with XXXX kids trying to work during the pandemic. The stress and anxiety from the pandemic and also getting XXXX made it very difficult for me to work. I have called Credit Acceptance on many occasions trying to get them to work with me on those late payments and I didn't receive any assistance. The only thing I received were very rude and unconcerned representatives. I would greatly appreciate some type of leniency in these difficult times.

I am a victim of Credit Acceptance ( CAC ) deceptive loan practices. Their deceptive practices include their algorithmic determination for loans, how that algorithm is then used to incentivize dealers to overly inflate vehicle prices, how the true cost of CAC credit is higher than disclosed on the CAC loan agreements and they are quick to reposes a vehicle once they hear from you that you will have difficulties with the loan payments. I purchased a vehicle through CAC in XXXX and made timely payments until I fell on financial hardship. In XXXX I reached out to CAC to attempt to resolve or lower my payments to no avail. I reached out again in XXXX to try to turn the vehicle in but received no feedback or assistance and repossessed the vehicle within 24 hours of me trying to turn it in.

My car completely broke and was not drivable shortly after the first payment! The oil damaged my apartment parking lot and when I brought it to their attention they only offered me things they knew I could not afford. I made the purchase back in XXXX and am barely finding out that the voluntary repo I was forced to do is affecting my credit real bad. And now I'm stuck with an XXXX balance that I can not afford.

I received a judgement ( request and writ for garnishment ) slip from a company that I contracted for last year. This debt is more than 20 years old and is not valid or right according to my research. To elaborate on the situation here are the details, purchased a vehicle back in 1996, after a time the vehicle was stolen, no use in continuing payments on a vehicle that I no longer had possession of and yes the information about the theft was provided to Credit acceptance. Fist this debt is way over the statute of limitations and secondly I have not been served any papers to appear in court to defend the validity of the case. I do not have any papers due to the fact of the age of this situation and I am looking to see if there is any remedy for me due to improper handling of an old debt.

I received a notice from credit acceptance that if I paid {$4300.00} within 90 days of the letter dated XX/XX/XXXX they would close my account and if the account was still reporting to the credit bureaus it would be updated to XXXX balance and paid in full for less than full balance. I paid the account in full on XX/XX/XXXX. I then called on XX/XX/XXXX the rep stated the account was closed so I requesed a letter stating that it was paid in full and they would be updating my credit report. I was faxed that letter as well as mailed the same letter. I have had way too many issues with this company in the past so I disputed the info because I knew they would not update it accordingly and of course they responded to the dispute that everything was accurate on the account which is a lie.

Information received back from dispute to Credit Acceptance validates my reason for dispute. Letter from Credit Acceptance states the reporting is accurate. ( See attached documents of reports showing multiple errors. ) 1. Letter states account was a collection as of XX/XX/XXXX? How is this possible when my last reported payment in full is XX/XX/XXXX? 2. Account is still on report as collection as of today. XX/XX/XXXX. This is clearly inaccurate. 3. Letter states that first delinquency date was XX/XX/XXXX? Credit Report clearly shows first delinquency date of XX/XX/XXXX. Which indicates rollback and illegal re-aging. 4. One report shows paid, and other shows as derogatory thats still in collections. These are multiple inaccuracies which are in violation of my rights under FCRA law.

A previous complaint was filed against this company concerning an unsigned sales contract. Their response to the first complaint was sending a copy of a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Process. This form is bogus. It has fake signatures that don't remotely resemble our signatures. A complaint was also filed with the Texas Attorney General last year and the Texas XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX this year. The attorney generals complaint produced an electronic reproduction of a sales contract with electronically filled in signatures and initials. I spoke with a woman XXXX XXXX XXXX last month regarding this account. She wanted me to send copies of our signatures to XXXX XXXX for verification but they are not to be trusted. I feel like they will try to make other fake documents with our real signatures.

I bought this car, XXXX XXXX XXXX, in XXXX. I am so XXXX down ; between XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I tried to surrender the car during XXXX due to no income. Credit Acceptance refused to come get it. Interest was still accruing. Fast forward a couple of years, I make minimum payments because after COVID, Credit acceptance decided to repo the car, I paid to get it back and then they arranged a payment plan to catch up on the loan that was no way affordable, they knew that, but I had to have a car. My past due balance is now over {$11000.00} and shows balance owed {$22000.00}!!!!. They are completely ruthless. How are people supposed to live when their car payment and interest eats their entire income? Yea, I got behind, but with the interest rate and fees, there is no way I can catch up

Ive tried to pay off a loan with Credit Acceptance Corporation and these people at their company keep giving me different amounts needed to pay off my loan. I spoke to XXXX at Credit Acceptance today and asked him why their company told me I owed XXXX which I paid yesterday online and now I go to their website and not only are they stating I owe XXXX but its also showing a balance of XXXX. So XXXX is stating that I only owe XXXX to pay the entire balance in the loan but thats not what the system stated yesterday. So not only are they giving me different amount every day that Im paying them Im getting charged transaction fees because they are not giving me correct amounts to pay off this loan. This company needs serious auditing because what they are doing is scamming consumer!!!

Credit Acceptance is reporting a balance for a car repossession account on my credit reports. However, the company did not follow the laws and provide me with the required state notices after the car was repossessed. The company was required by law to send me a notice about the car being available for sale at an auction or a private sale. The company did not provide this notice. After the car was sold, the company was required to by state law to send me a notice notifying me of the same with a break down of the fees and any balance due. The company did not send this notice either. This is a violation. Due to the company not providing the required state notices, they can not collect any balance from me and can not report a balance owed from me to any credit reporting agencies.

Credit Acceptance corporation are falsely reporting on my credit report which has been hurting my ability to purchase consumer products from other companies. My identity was stolen and used years ago with out my permission with Credit Acceptance 6 years ago. I filed a report and also notified them that I never co signed a loan. I was told that it would be taken care of but instead Credit Acceptance has been listening negative payments on my credit report for a vehicle I have never seen nor have any ownership of. Now it 's list repossessed on my credit report which makes it very difficult for me to get a fair rate on an auto loan. I request this this company send me all the original contracts that they said I signed or delete themselves from my credit reports immediately.

I've been looking at info on my credit reports and noticed Credit Acceptance reporting late payments on an account that is just not true. This company has reported payments being 30 days late for XXXX of 2023 and this is not the case. I am arguing that Credit Acceptance had no legal right to report this information and it is not accurate at all. Under 15 USC 1681a ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) the consumer report does not include information solely as to the transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report. Credit acceptance is violating my consumer rights on so many levels.

The person that I spoke to said that there would not be a late fee and it would not affect my credit. Well they lied it did effect my credit and since we were on a recorded line which they stated. They should be able to go back and see when I call in XXXX to have the payment arrangement. Again the person that I spoke with said that we were in a recorded line. So it should not be a problem to pull up the conversation, and have the issue resolved immediately. This is very unfair and injustice for what has been done. It has made a major fall on my report. I would like this taken care of. I have reached out to them. They wouldnt talk. So now I need your help. Thanks

I was a with CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION customer since XXXX and during that time, I have enjoyed my experience greatly. I am writing to see if you would be willing to make a " goodwill '' adjustment to your reporting to the three credit agencies. I have late payments on the above referenced account XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX XXXX. Since that time I was an exceptional customer paying every month on time. Because of my exceptional payment history over the last years, I would like you to consider removing the negative payments from my credit report. At the time of the late payments, I was in the process of changing jobs. I say that not to justify why the payments were late, but rather to show that the late payments are not a good indicator of my actual credit worthiness.

Credit Acceptance keeps lowing me credit score by reporting a closed account as open. Its for a vehicle i dont even have anymore. I have not made a payment since 2017. I dont have this vehicle anymore. They keep reporting this account in my revolving accounts. I am over 1000 days late. They report im on 120 days late. The account is open and i dont have the vehicle. If this account is open where is the truck?? Why dont i have the truck. They need to be stopped. This is ruining my life. I want to be compensated for all this. I want to seek legal action. The account should be closed. And if they cant fix it and do whats right i am going to have them prosecuted. They were sued for the same things in the past. They are fraudulently reporting this on my credit report.

I called credit acceptance to get this matter resolved. But sadly could not. i was told it was my fault and the could not do anything about it. I file a complaint wit the XXXX Credit acceptance called and said that they will investigate. But investigation was just questioning my on the phone before telling me they could not do anything about it. so NOTHING as be resolved.

There were a couple of disputes over false reporting from Credit Acceptance Corporation and after an investigation, the information was verified as accurate. However, after carefully reviewing all 3 bureaus the information was not only inaccurate but also inconsistent. The account was written off as a bad debt in XXXX and there had been no activity since that time. When the account appeared on my credit report as 120 days delinquent in XX/XX/XXXX I was baffled, because this was a charged off account, so therefore it shouldnt have been reporting a payment history. The reported balance was also incorrect. I settled the account in full in XX/XX/XXXX. Ive included a discrepancy in the reporting from 2 bureaus. How can the information be accurate if its inconsistent?

Credit Acceptance erroneously reported a late payment on my credit report. This has significantly impacted my life. I am unable to get approved for a mortgage. Credit acceptance has refused to remove off my credit after several disputes and complaints to the creditor and credit bureaus. They customer service I received regarding this matter was very rude and demeaning. I would never recommend this loan company. They falsely report information that affects a customers ability to obtain credit elsewhere. I would like the sirurisriin to be rectified by Credit Acceptance removing the false report of a late payment off my report immediately. I have supporting documentation that states I have paid on time each month. My payments are automatically drafted each month.

XXXX, XXXX and XXXX also keeps reporting this debt as validated and verified, even though no proof of such has ever been provided by the creditor or the credit reporting agency. I am demanding proof of the original date of delinquency on this debt. It is believed this debt is over 6 years old, which is past the statue of limitations for collection, which would take away the right of the creditor to collect and report this debt to the CRA 's. I am also demanding detailed report of accounting. Information provided to me indicates original date of delinquency of XX/XX/2015 which is now over 6 years old and is now time barred.

The laws of the state of Pennsylvania clearly states that when a repossession takes place, that there must be at least two auctions completed before there is an upset price pertaining to collection purposes. However, in fiscal year 2017, being XXXX I suddenly faced several financial issues that caused this repossession. Accordingly, I am requesting a reasonable settlement to this collection. The vehicle loan was for a 19.99 % interest rate, and the payment was very high. However, I was only 30-days behind on the payments, and if I was given proper consideration as before, I could have brought the payments current. I would appreciate an offer in compromise either through my email or direct mail, and Ill do my best to make that payment to benefit all parties.

They are not even the ones housing the account it has been sold to a collection agency so they are reporting this illegally to the Bureau per the Fair Credit Reporting Laws .Every time I call them they have a different excuse / dispute process and wont give me a proper timeline to resolve the issue even though i have been told multiple times that the information would be deleted and updated.

When I spoke with the gentleman, he stated they still expect payment but they will stop all collection calls during this natural disaster. They state they can not defer payments and have no intention to do so even though people are affected due to layoffs and inability to work. There are no contingency plans for this disaster with this company during a national crisis. I was also informed that they will still report your late payment after 30 days but will help by using a special code reporting its due to a natural disaster. Ridiculous.

In XX/XX/2018 a vehicle was purchased and I was listed as a co-signer. After the primary borrower neglected to pay I never received notification that the primary borrower was behind on payments. After the car company sold the vehicle for more than the balance owed on the vehicle and is still attempting to collect it. I am asking that this car company provide the bill of sale for this transaction which proves I do not owe anything for this vehicle. Also, I would like them to prove that they notified me when the borrower failed behind on payments. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, creditors must notify borrowers and give them at least 30 days to dispute the validity of debt before placing it on someone's credit report, this right was denied to me.

I am disputing an issue with Credit Acceptance. This company repossessed a vehicle which I was the co- borrower for. I had no knowledge of how to locate the vehicle before it got repossessed. I spoke with the company about it with no success. Once I reported the issues with the CFPB before thats when they stated the vehicle was repossessed. Before that they was reporting it unpaid by 120 days late for about 2 years. They also re-aged this account multiple times. It is illegal to re-age credit and it is Illegal to not send out paperwork about the repossession. I have no correspondence at all for the vehicle being repossessed. They never said where it was sold or when it was sold. I want this account removed from my credit report due to the inaccuracies.

During the months of XXXX 2021 I'd made arrangements to pay off my vehicle in full.

That said, during the month of XX/XX/2021 Credit Acceptance reported me to all XXXX credit reporting agencies for being over 30 days late in spite of the payment arrangement promised. Their actions caused my credit score to drop tremendously. Several attempts have been made in order to rectify this issue but Credit Acceptance refuse to correct their mistake.

I was given a loan for a car to which my first problem was the same day. Car was dead. Battery was replaced. Then I took the car in on numerous occasions and each time they said there was no problem. By the fourth or fifth month the whole transmission fell out the car. It was supposed to be covered but in a turn of events they said I will have to pay for the tear down which could have ran me up to {$5000.00}. Now that is not fair. I reported it immediately and told them to keep the car. Then later I found out there was a problem about a salvaged title which was another problem. Now I get called from them several times a day everyday. It has gotten so bad I put them on block and they still call from other numbers. The harrassment is out of control.

I have spoke to XXXX XXXX from Credit Acceptance on a few occasions. I also spoke to a lawyer who represents them, yesterday and my account is still showing as past due when my car was already repossessed and sold at an auction in XX/XX/XXXX. The representative advised me they aren't doing anything with my account and don't plan on making any changes to my account/ I never received the date, time, and place for the auction, or a phone number you can call for more information about the sale. I've requested numerous times for a break down of all charges and amount car was sold at auction for back in XXXX of XXXX. I haven't received any updated info from XXXX XXXX and I received disdain when calling to the law firm who works with Credit Acceptance.

I bought a car through XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX FL several years ago through credit acceptance. I have paid extra money plus regular payments charged per month. They have charged me extremely high interest and fees making difficult to pay loan off. I have called financing company to lower interest but no such luck. car loan is automatically taken out of bank account. I have never been late paying nor never missed a payment. In addition they have put non accurate information on credit report for amount paid. Since purchasing car XXXX XXXX went out of business. I think it should be illegal to charge so much interest and fees against people with low credit. I am XXXX veteran and feel there is no end in sight of ever paying off credit acceptance.

Credit acceptance calls me at least 5 times a day. I got into a bad accident in the state of Alabama. The car was totaled and was at a tow yard in AL. It was a hit and run accident. I live in NY so I had to pay {$1300.00} to get back to NY. The insurance company stayed I only had liability, which I am fighting them because I just got the car in XX/XX/2021. I had full coverage and GAP insurance. I am out of work on XXXX due to my injuries from the accident. I called credit acceptance and told them to go get the vehicle from the tow yard. They have the vehicle and keep calling me 5 times a day and sending letters in the mail. I am fighting the insurance company. And until my situation improves and I get back to work I can't do anything right now

I XXXX XXXX entered into a consumer credit transaction with CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION on XXXX XXXX. A consumer credit transaction in which a finance charge was involved.15 USC 1605 defines a finance charge as the sum of all charges in a consumer credit transaction, The finance charge does not include cash, but Credit Acceptance took cash. The finance charge is also supposed to include insurance but Credit acceptance made me purchase insurance separately. Credit Acceptance also went ahead and used a third party that had nothing to do with this transaction or witness the transaction repossessed my car that i have surety interest in which is another violation. I have lost much sleep over this issue i cant believe i have been abused this much.

Some guy pulled into my driveway and tried to take my car while I was still in it.. I noticed that there was some guy lurking in the back of my driveway, because I heard the door close. The drive way is wrap around so, as I ran out to confront him trying back into the entrance of the wrap around drive way.. so I got in the car. As he backed up to block me in, so as to attempt to hitch the vehicle ( 1 that I'm still in at this point, might I add ) rolled my window down and asked him not to block my driveway yet he proceeded to do so, then he put the forks under the tires and began lifting. So, I proceeded to drive off the forks, at which point he still tried to block me in the driveway and I had to drive thru the neighbors yard to evade him.

Since Credit Acceptance Corporation ( CAC ) has not enabled a change in my credit report to allow for my mortgage to go thru, my best bet is to file a Chapter XXXX Bankruptcy to clear the course of action in returns to my report which will allow for a twelve month period of no lates or dings in order to go forward in our mortgage attempt. In addition, a company such as CAC has an option to move the payments which became late to the end of the contract instead of increasing the payment from {$470.00} to {$520.00}. This ploy affects my personal budget. My Bankruptcy attorney is XXXX XXXX and he will also serve as attorney for my daughter XXXX XXXX in her Chapter XXXX filing, she as owner of the XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, and me as her co-signer..

I have reached out to Credit Acceptance over 10 times regarding a previous account that I had with them. I had a XXXX XXXX with them that I aquired in 2010. I paid the vehicle off. After I paid the vehicle off a few months later I applied for credit with them again and was told that I had a past due balance of around {$120.00}. I wasn't sure what that balance was for but I promptly paid it. Now when I review my credit score I see that credit acceptance was reporting that account as a collection account. My account was never in collections and they never tried to contact me regarding a balance. They ripped me off and now they are ruining my credit. I will not stop until credit acceptance updates my report to reflect my account paid as agreed.

Credit acceptance has a very distasteful way of doing business. After the pay off they include they silently included the XXXX XXXX on the pay off amount. They have yet to send me the original title and now Im stuck with a vehicle that isnt running and nothing from them to help. I cant even get the title from them. DMV ny tells me to reach out them bc they havent released the title and then credit acceptance tells me that NY is a title holding state and they need to send the title instead of them. There is not clear direction and all Im trying to do is cut my losses and sell this car. Do not do business with credit acceptance. They are professional scam artist and will take your money and silently make deals that can hurt you in the end.

Besides it was a used vehicle, after 4 months it started having problems .but i waited until i could n't drive it no more and then i stopped making payments. so right now credit acceptance have a lawsuit against me regarding that loan on the used car and i can't pay that no more. plus the dealer said that if the car break down and i take it to them they don't promise anything. So my hopes were really down to the ground. What kind of car dealership tells that to a customer?? So, they took the car away and however credit acceptance still want me to pay for it. That's why this company have so many complaints and that's why they have been sued They sent me a notice regarding this case where i should appear in court and i got it on XX/XX/2023

The dates I am note actually sure. I brought an used vehicle and when I test drive it I had no issues so I then proceeded with purchasing it. After driving a while the car would jerk and than stop I spoke with the salesmen and Advised him of what was going on and I also took it to be tested and there was something wrong with the engine valves I was then told the car wasnt worth the money. After getting an oil change I woke up to go to work the car would not start. I had the vehicle towed to my mothers home so it could be looked at the tow truck came and repossessed the car I was walking out to give them the keys and they drove off really fast. I feel like I should be relived or have and very low pay amount being that I was sold an bad car.

I had a job loss and I still kept sending money that was being applied to the wrong account. Finally they repossessed the car, I paid the balance of {$600.00} to get the car back. Then they made a payment arrangement with me after correcting their mistake. They gave me the same account number I had for years and they were not applying my payments to that account, because supposedly it was not my account. They found the money that they were not applying, because my bank had to get involved to clarify the discrepancy that they caused. They then made a payment arrangement but have been reporting my payments late and refuse to correct their mistake. Please I need your help because this has severely impacted my credit history and score.

They closed out my account because they did not receive title after 9 months of being paid by me.

I just recently closed out on a XXXX loan with credit acceptance for a XXXX XXXXXXXXXXXX XXXX I purchased from XXXX XXXX in XXXX, Connecticut. This loan was not advertised at 19 %, nor was I told at the end of the loan I would pay XXXX for a XXXX car. This caused a lot of pain, turmoil, hardships, fallouts with my mother, and excessive XXXX loan borrowing to avoid repossessing my car. I tried everything from paying more each month to paying my vehicle note in half every two weeks to decrease the principal. Nothing seems to work. I was still faced with harassment calls from credit acceptance, and I was also told this was an annual loan, but this loan seemed to acquire interest daily. By far the worst experience on an auto loan ever.

Credit Acceptance ( Lender ) FAILED TO PROPERLY APPLY PAYMENTS MADE ON LOAN made by BORROWER and changed loan agreement to apply payments on account as interest bearing rather than on the balance as BORROWER signed too! Lender DEMONSTRATES BAD BUSINESS PRACTICES and fraudulent credit reporting attempting to obstruct borrower from paying loan off early. LENDER CHANGED the loan agreement after BORROWER cancelled the two contracts lender insisted it buy. The balance should've been {$14000.00} on XX/XX/XXXX, with payments deducted from the balance, all payments made to date have been paid in INTEREST BEARING only, unbeknownst to borrower until yesterday XX/XX/XXXX. This is predatory lending and fraudulent bad business practices.

XX/XX/XXXX my son called the lender , credit acceptance , to get payoff status. They informed him it was in a repossession status’s abd there was nothing he could do at this point. I personally contacted the lender. They informed me it was due to not receiving proper documentation from the insurance company. They mentioned they attempted to contact myself and my son numerous times however we both received nothing.

The total loan amount remaining was {$3800.00} at this point. The loan agency ( CREDIT ACCEPTANCE ) and GAP provider ( XXXX XXXX ) kept going back and forth, saying the payment was being processed. Over the span of 4 years, interest has accumulated and the account in now in collections. Due to gross negligence on behalf of both companies this has hurt my credit as well as cause me an overwhelming amount of stress and inconvenience. These companies need to be held accountable and not get away with shorting the consumer.

I have called Credit Acceptance requesting a letter detailing my payment arrangment and they have refused. They said they do not send out letters on customer payment arrangements. There is no way to access payment arrangement information online. There is no way for a customer to physically see a payment arrangement. The co-borrower made changes to the payment arrangement on the loan without my knowledge. Credit Acceptance did not inform me of any changes through mail, phone call, or on their portal. This information should not be withheld from borrowers. Not being willing to send out payment arrangement information is also limiting to individuals with hearing disabilities that need to see/ read information.

Credit Acceptance not only calls multiple times a day, sometimes even twice within the hour, and from two different numbers! If that isnt harassment, I dont know what it. Just today, XX/XX/18 they called back to back, once at XXXX, and again at XXXX. Theyve done the same XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX from XXXX and XXXX & XXXX from their XXXX number. XX/XX/XXXX XXXX & XXXX from XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX called at XXXX, and XXXX XXXX, & XXXX. This is just from the month of XXXX. This list does not show all the times they called in one day, but only when it was repeated in the same hour my two different numbers. They call numerous times a day.There are several other months this has occurred, but now its getting overwhelming.

I have issues with the way this is being reported as it is damaged my credit. The car was repo XXXX and XXXX say its derogatory XXXX says open. This is an inaccuracy and is en to remove this account from my credit. The dates of last activity are inconsistent with each other this is also enough to remove from my credit. XXXX is reporting past due 120 days the other 2 are reporting repo. This is enough to remove or delete from credit.balance on XXXX and XXXX are the same while XXXX is no showing XXXX. XXXX and XXXX are reporting as auto loan and XXXX is not reporting at all. XXXX has not reported any months of payments late or not and is not consistent with the others With all this said this needs to be removed

XXXX way to go on not doing what the law requires. I went through the statements and found proof that not only am I making the monthly payments so the late history is inaccurate and CLEARLY not verified! But the balance is also wrong. The date of the last payment is wrong! So if you want to ignore me or make me jump through hoops maybe I should turn the FULL payment history, the multiple letters to the bureau and the creditor, the CFPB complaint, and the monthly statements over to a consumer attorney and to see if I have a lawsuit! I'm paying Credit Acceptance and they are NOT in compliance with FCRA reporting and your bureau did a XXXX-XXXX job on looking into this. All I want is this corrected IMMEDIATELY!!

Financed a XXXX XXXX back on XX/XX/XXXX with a monthly payment of {$540.00}. I was informed the monthly payment that was divided into bi-weekly payments will help lower the interest rate of 22.99 % if paid on time and be able to pay off early. Initially the car purchase was {$15000.00} and the total amount financed was {$20000.00}. I've paid a total of {$19000.00} to date and still have a remaining of {$16000.00} ; which is incorrect. The early payoff option available is {$12000.00}. I've paid more than 90 % of the financed amount and should be given the option to pay {$920.00} to pay off the loan in full. I was informed misinformation and the account was set up with payments to reduce the length of the loan.

My auto loan contained a gap waiver and was covered by XXXX insurance and both payments were issued to XXXX XXXX for the full price of the auto loan. However, XXXX XXXX has continued to charge me $ 473 monthly for a vehicle that has been totaled out and paid for. As of today XX/XX/XXXX, they have accumulated charges to the sum of {$4800.00} dollars. I do not owe them this money. XXXX paid them and the Gap waiver paid the balance.

Hi, I have sent certified letter Credit Acceptance # XXXX about this account. I have requested Validation of Debt, which they have never provided and I'm not familiar with this account. There has not been a payment made on this account in over 12 months ; therefore, account should be reported as Charge-Off / Written Off. The account say ACTIVE AND OPEN. It's against the law to lie to investors stating you have open accounts when you really don't. Therefore, CFPB may want to look into Credit Acceptance as well. Please remove this from my credit report ( s ) ASAP! As I have requested information and it was never provide and it's been over 35-60 days. I have the certified mail receipt if required as well.

Ive had a payment arrangement set up on my account for months now, which Ive been pretty much on top of. What I did not know was that my account was still reflecting in such a horrible state long after the arrangement has been made. The point of a payment arrangement is that its to get current, not a placeholder as it was explained to me. If Im paying to be put in the arrangement, the remaining past due amount is rolled into the back of the loan, giving a new amount due and my account is current. It was told to me when I originally set up the arrangement that with my amount owed it was going to be that amount due till it was paid off in 2 years. So I would have had negative reporting for that whole time??

The Car was totaled, insurance company paid 95 % of the loan. Resting amount since i had no gap was XXXX. I made a payment plan to pay off at XXXX per month. So it would give me time to atlease save for another vehicle. For my understanding the payment plan is to pay off past or future due amounts in payments. ( Witch i think is accurate ) and they agreed. XXXX payments have been made. But the company after 1 months still decided to mark my credit as DELINQUENT for the pass due amount. My credit score when down XXXX points. Is this Legal?? If i made the payment plan why would they still send me to credit??? I want to report this company as a misleading and a Scam.

The remaining balance as well as the pay off quote is way more than what the original price of the vehicle was, which was around $ XXXX. My vehicle has over XXXX in miles, I pay 21 % in interest which is absurd. I have already paid over XXXX so far, it's no reason for my pay off quote to be over XXXX. I am really having a hard time paying such a high car note. My XXXX car note is XXXX XXXX I need for my contract to be changed. Or at least the amount to change so I can pay it off sooner.

I attempted to get a loan on a used vehicle in my budget for XXXX with over XXXX miles on it on the XXXX XXXX website In XXXX Michigan they ran my credit through XXXX different predatory lenders and I was denied because the vehicle had to many miles on it not because of my XXXX score. They attempted to make go through a high interest loan company with a 23 % interest rate. This doesn't help me the consumer that's XXXX and on social security. Now I have XXXX unwanted inquiries and no vehicle XXXX XXXX. This is ridiculous! Are there laws to protect me the co sumer from this? The dealership knew full well as he told me in a text " he was limited on financing due to the high miles on said vehicle "

This account is closed as of XXXX have reported late payments every month to be credit reports for the last 4 and 1/2 years. I do not have this vehicle. When calling this company they refuse to connect me to an associate they refer me to a collection agency that NEVER answers the phone. If I'm being referred to a collection agency anytime I call WHY IS THIS ACCOUNT STILL OPEN ON MY CREDIT REPORT. Its been referred to XXXX XXXX so why is this still open? No one at credit acceptance will speak to me and I can not contact anybody at XXXX XXXX. This needs to be placed as a repo or closed account. To report to my credit every month as a missed payment is outrageous when I do not have this vehicle.

I had asked to change my payment date to the XXXX of the month from the XXXX. Which they did but they were reporting I was making my payments late and adding on fees. Now the last 3 months I had called to push my payment out which they agreed to and I made those payments and again late fees and reporting I wasn't making the payment to the credit bureaus. On or about XX/XX/XXXX I spoke with a customer service rep and told her I would not be able to make the payment for XX/XX/XXXX until XX/XX/XXXX, she instead set it up for XX/XX/XXXX and again I got a late fee and reported none payment!! They also cancelled my payment arrangement for the XXXX of each month multiple times. This is ridiculous!

My account was NEVER late and was paid in full ON TIME after an accident that totalled the car. My insurance sent in settlement and Credit Acceptance Corp GAP insurance covered the balance. This was verified at the time it was happening. Recently upon pulling copies of my credit to find out why I was having issues, it was discovered that Credit Acceptance had marked the account as 'Derogatory ' and 'Payment after charge off/collection Paid collection '. I made contact with them recently which the customer service person saw that the account was indeed paid as agreed and never late, and claimed to forward the information to another department. I have received NO communications since then.

I took a car loan out for {$15000.00} on a XXXX XXXX XXXX through credit acceptance in XXXX. I set up automatic payments for my payment to be taken out of my bank account. It has been years and I thought my loan was almost paid off. I have never been sent late or repossession papers or any correspondence at all. I was just sent a letter from a law firm stating I owe {$15000.00} on a car that is now worth less than {$1500.00}. I don't understand how this could happen. How can a company say you owe them almost the balance of when the loan originated when I haven't received anything saying I'm late or in jeporady of defaulting. Please help this is not right. Thank you, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Credit Acceptance was not creditor I signed up for. My XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Was signed with XXXX XXXX. I had everything set up on auto pay during the time of the loan when I realized XX/XX/XXXX, that it was through credit acceptance. My contract is not the same with what I agreed to and signed. The car dealership that I had purchased the vehicle from must have done some type of switch with creditors?? I need to have this disputed. This is not the agreement that I signed up for and I ended up having to give the car back because the payments were larger than what I anticipated from what I had agreed to when I signed the contract. This has been false and misleading to me as the consumer.

This complaint is involving Credit Acceptance, I called them regarding my payments, all payments are up to date now. They reported 30 day late payments for XXXX, XXXX and XXXX. My payments were late due to COVID, I expressed that to the company and they assured me they would freeze my account and there would be no marks that would report negative. I need this fixed on my credit report as Im getting turned down for auto refinancing and an approval for mortgage on a new home. I have documentation to prove this was COVID related. I was quarantined for 14 days and was still sick. I took a leave due to the fact there were several cases that were reported and I was afraid for my health

Had a car through credit acceptance about 8 years ago car was totaled and insurance payed from what I understood, the dealer I purchased from died so I couldnt go back there ... I finally got the account closed and removed from my credit report and worked hard to build my credit back and they have now put it on bureaus again they are lying saying its new and Im still paying on a car so when I dispute it as being old it reposted back as accurate. I cant seem to get any help from transunion bureaus due to this falsehood to remove it. This count shows the age but they make it look as if it is an open account and that I am just late paying, it is fraudulent as the account was closed.

Credit Acceptance is in violation of FCRA Section 611 ( 5a ) ( 15 U.S.C section 1681 ) : Treatment of Inaccurate or Unverifiable information. Lenders are required to sell repossessed vehicles in a commercially reasonable manner, meaning they must be sold in the same way as other cars and for average market price. Unfortunately, I still have the car in my possession over the last several years. They have reported to my credit report a past due balance on my credit report.. I have called several times to have this car returned in 2018. Yet, this company hasn't done anything and continue to report a past due and late balance to my account. They haven't attempted to pick the car up.

I checked my credit and Credit Acceptance has still been reporting miss payments for 9 months. I called Credit Acceptance on XX/XX/XXXX to get this corrected and the rep told me that he had to report it as missed payments because it has a balance. My credit report is showing a balance XXXX rep stated I only have a balance for {$230.00}. This is false reporting and it has really affected my credit score due to them falsifying my balance and reporting it late when the account is closed.

On XX/XX/2022 I logged into the Credit Acceptance website as I always do and I paid my final car note which I have proof of. I paid the full balance of what was showing on the site at that time. A few days later I was alerted that there was a late payment reported to my credit. When I called Credit Acceptance to inquire about the late payment they stated that I had a {$18.00} balance that I was unaware of and that was not showing on their website when I paid my bill, however I paid the {$18.00}. I was never 30 days late paying my car note and I would like my credit report updated. I have proof that the payment was paid at the time I stated which will not make it 30 days late.

In early 2019 Credit Acceptance Corporation had the understanding that I was unable to pay my bill. I voluntarily repossessed the vehicle due to not being able to make payments they stated that they would then put it under voluntary repossession and I wouldnt be responsible for the balance of {$13000.00} for a used vehicle. When you pull my credit report it does not show on the report. But when you pull my public records it shows they are trying to garnish my paychecks in which I had no knowledge of this and havent spoken to anyone about this. To my understanding once the car was out of my hands it was not going to be on my credit report or I would have my paychecks garnished.

Bought a XXXX XXXX van from XXXX XXXX XXXX. The van was defective- kept breaking down. Had radiator fluid in the transmission ( This is an impossible thing to fix, as I have read ). I GAVE BACK THE VAN. ( it 's been branded as 'repossession ' ) I told them WHY we were giving back the van- it was unusable, it was dangerous, since it had a propensity for breaking down in the middle of the street with no warning, IT WAS UNrepairable. Credit Acceptance took back the van, was told about it- and expects to be paid for the *loan*. Basically, they took back merchandise, resold it, and still expect money for it. They are currently trying to take me to court ... I call that stealing.

I told the company, Credit Acceptance Corporation, that I wanted to voluntarily repo my vehicle. It was towed away by my apartment. I notified CAC where to pick up the truck. They never got it. The tow company got a mechanics lien, retitled the truck and sold it. CAC sent one notice in XX/XX/2023 saying I owed {$24000.00} when the payoff was {$13000.00}. CAC continues to add delinquent marks on my credit report, with no way for me to settle the debt. They will not turn it over to collections nor can they be contacted directly. Their phone number goes to a medical life alret robo system. This is unethical and I will be continually punished for this with no way to make amends

On XX/XX/2018 I was looking through my report and noticed a vehicle that I returned to the dealership where it's reporting completely incorrect, and it's reporting on my credit report with multiple inaccuracies. I had the opportunity to talk to several lawmakers and friends, and learned some basic laws in regards to voluntary or repossession of a vehicle. Under the laws of MASS and UCC 9.506 as well as State RISA and MVISA statutes, a deficiency can not be claimed unless all of the required notices were properly and timely given, and all of the allowable redemption and cure time limits were adhered to.

I spoke with XXXX from Credit acceptance she stated I still owe {$12000.00} even after they sold the vehicle for {$2500.00}. But before the repo it was {$15000.00} and im still receiving late payments on my credit report. How can i be responsible for late payments when i gave the vehicle back. I would like them deleted and blocked off my credit report. How is it possible that the original creditor can still report late payments? Thats a factual error and need to be deleted off my credit report. Its inaccurate information and unfair and seems a illegal

I tried to work out a payment plan with Credit Acceptance but they wouldn't help me and they repossed my vehicle. Now I have a higher balance to pay if I want my vehicle back and I have to drive over 3 hours one way just to get it. I tried to work something out with them before it was repossed but they wouldn't help me and they came to my house and took my vehicle without me knowing it. I don't know if they wrecked my vehicle when it was loaded or not. But they wouldn't help me so I could keep my vehicle and get back on track with payments. They are sometimes rude on the phone when talking to them. I wanted to keep my vehicle but Credit Acceptance wouldn't work with me.

I do n't understand how they are reporting that the last payment that was made was a late payment. It is not fair that I pay all my bills on time and Credit Acceptance gets to report a delusional late payment. I have disputed this problem and nothing has changed. This late payment is being reported incorrectly. I WAS NEVER LATE.

This company continues to report an auto loan that was included in a bankruptcy almost six years ago. They are currently reporting 120+ day late payments. There are several inaccuracies also being reported and I need the account removed from my credit reports immediately. The date the account went delinquent is also incorrect. They have it reported as XXXX. This account was due to be removed from my report this year but then they changed to date and continue to report late payments. They have continued to report false information. This is a predatory lender with several claims and lawsuits already filed against them. They must be stopped from doing this to people.

This loan was paid in full as of XX/XX/XXXX following a total loss insurance payment. During the insurance process was advised by credit acceptance that account status referred to insurance department and account would be on hold. Credit acceptance received this payment prior to XX/XX/XXXX and yet proceeded to report the account as delinquent and open. The current reported balance, status, and payment history have all been inaccurately reported. We brought this to their attention and were advised to file a dispute with the reporting bureaus which has been done. These reporting actions directly violate the FCRA and show a willful and malicious reporting behavior.

For the past 6 months I have been writing letters, making phone calls and disputing my payment history and balance owed which reflects negatively on my credit report. Credit Acceptance originally denied my request to apply for SCRA rights when I enlisted into the XXXX XXXX. The agent I spoke with stated that the loan came before I joined so I was not eligible. After disputing that and over paying for months I finally was able to get my account adjusted and backdated in XXXX of XXXX. I then asked for Credit acceptance to update my payment history and payoff amount on my credit report backdating to XXXX of XXXX. They corrected 2 credit bureaus but not the third.

Credit Acceptance Corp keeps reporting my account open although the account is showing closed and paid with a {$0.00} balance on their own website. I paid the {$1700.00} on XX/XX/22. I was deeply impacted by the shutdowns with an inability to make a living due to the pandemic and I made them aware of the situation but they provided no relief to me. All I want is for the account to be reported accurately and closed out. This should have been done well over 2 years ago. This is causing me further financial harm and leaving me with little recourse I may have to get an attorney involved. I had send an email to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX hopefully I will get some response.

After consummation of the XXXX XXXX XXXX, I learned that I was not Clearly and Conspicuously disclosed of my Right to Rescind. After certified mail delivery of my Notice of Rescission, the creditor did NOT reimburse the obligor. Instead, their was no legitimate response. I was told via recorded telephone call, that " I can not rescind the loan. Rescission applies only to houses. '' They did not mail this response as they said they would. Also to mention, the right to rescind is applicable to ALL consumer credit transactions. Please see XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) ( XXXX ). The XXXX days for their reimbursement period has well past. A remedy is now demanded.

XXXX is reporting I was late 30 days on my vehicle loan for the month of XX/XX/2021. I disputed the error and the late payment still remains. Dispute results state the creditor certified the information was correct. I do not understand how that could be if I was never 30 days late on my payments. The account being reported incorrectly is Credit Acceptance. The month I paid off my loan ( XX/XX/2021 ) is when they reported the alleged late payment. I tried contacting Credit Acceptance and they can not tell me why it is reporting late and told me my account had no late fees assessed. They did provide me a copy of my payment history which I can provide to you.

I believe Credit Acceptance Corporation ( CAC ) has charged me a higher interest rate than agreed in our contract. I purchased a vehicle in XX/XX/XXXX. The contract states a 22.99 % interest rate, when I did the math manually it turns out I am being charged about 31.29 %. My vehicle was repossessed in XX/XX/XXXX and even afterward, I am being harrassed to settle for the remaining balance in my account. When I first bought the vehicle, I was sold a lemon and the warranty sold to me with CAC did not cover everything. I've lost my only form of transportation, lost my job due to having no car, being thousands of dollars in debt, and my credit score has fallen.

I have made arrangements through Credit Acceptance 's attorney to settle my account in full with a XXXX balance and the company refuses to report the information to the credit bureau accurately. Instead of reporting that the account is paid with a XXXX balance to all 3 bureaus. They only took off the XXXX settlement off the balance and continue to report that I am not making payments negatively effecting my credit score. I have emails from Credit Acceptance 's attorney as well as all other documentation that we agreed before payment was made. This has been an utter nightmare and I cant seem to get this 8 year old debt off of my credit report as well.

This loan was paid in full as of XX/XX/XXXX following a total loss insurance payment. During the insurance process was advised by credit acceptance that account referred to insurance department and account would be on hold. Credit acceptance received this payment prior to XX/XX/XXXX and yet proceeded to report the account as delinquent and open. The current reported balance, status, and payment history have all been inaccurately reported. We brought this to their attention and were advised to file a dispute with the reporting bureaus which has been done. These reporting actions directly violate the FCRA and show a willful and malicious reporting behavior.

I co-signed on the loan to help a friend in XX/XX/XXXX. When I co-signed I was assured by the financing company that I would only stay on the loan for 6 months. The car company explained that I were only needed to lower the interest rate & that I would be removed from the account. They never removed me but I also had no knowledge that they didnt remove me until the repossession of the car. My friend told me that she called them & explained her situation with finances. They assured her that they would work with her. The car started breaking down but the company refused to help get it fixed & the car was still under warranty during this time frame.

I am being harassed by Credit Acceptance. I got a car loan with them. About 4 maybe 5 month ago I made arrangements to make payments because I was struggling to make it on time. The lady I talk to said that i owe XXXX and the car will be paid off. A little over a month ago I got a call from them saying That I owe XXXX. I ask how is that possible when I know I've been paying on the agreement I made. I just made my last payment this week and they are still calling me sometimes 10 times a day no exaggeration. I feel like they are lying to me, and trying to get more money from me knowing I've paid off my car. I need help so they would leave me alone.

Credit acceptance is a horrible company, I have never been 2 payments delinquent, I had one payment that was late, and even talked to them on the phone about it, but they demolished my credit, they are an absolutely horrible company, with no sense of morality, and they only report your credit when they feel like it, or something goes wrong, until then you're XXXX, and good luck getting them to update it monthly as well. They charge atrocious and outrageous fees at every turn on top of your payments, and don't want you to succeed in paying it off. They target those struggling, or those in desperation, and think that they can't defend themselves.

I have a loan with Credit Acceptance and have called to ask if payments could be placed on back of loan do to loss of work during covid. Flat out told no and asked when I could make a payment. I have fallen behind and try to pay something but I will never catch up. Then they are only acknowledging Covid Relief for certain States. I live in NC a Hotspot state and nothing is being done. I feel as though I'm denying discriminated against and its not right. They are reporting to all credit agencies and I'm trying this is ridiculous and needs to cease. They already charge astronomical interest and fees I can't see how they are a legal entity.

I had a loan amount approved with Credit Acceptance for a XXXX XXXX which I received from XXXX XXXX XXXX. On XX/XX/2017 I had to purchase a new engine and services for the car of {$4600.00}. Apparently the cars engine block was broken and desperately needed to be replaced. I had tried for months to resolve this issue but had no success. I had repeatedly called XXXX XXXX XXXX and Credit Acceptance to ask for help but received none. I also ended up paying out of pocket for a rental car for weeks and was never reimbursed for it. I was under the impression that the payment for the engine block would go towards my monthly payment for the car.

XXXX payments made on time are not reflected on my XXXX XXXX Credit Report. That keeps your score low.

Credit Acceptance Corporation had a lien placed against our home. The debt was placed with an attorney. The debt was paid via wired funds to the attorney from the closing of my home. I emailed, and requested multiple times to the attorney to please have it removed and documented through the courts and they took weeks to document it. I just reviewed my credit and my wife 's credit and found out every month Credit Acceptance is posting to our credit " repossession '' and " no payment made ''. They do this every month. This debt is from XX/XX/2015. I would like to have all of the reporting removed from my credit. It has been paid in full.

I purchased a vehicle in 2016 with a XXXX XXXX through XXXX XXXX. I paid consistently for 2 yrs then lost my job. I self repossessed returned car which was run through auction. To this day 7yrs later it is still on my credit as an open delinquent account with same money due from before auction. I have contacted them with no option but to pay full amount. They keep checking my credit and will not close account or remove it. It is hurting my chances of ever getting a home loan or better credit. I feel this practice of high interest loans is wrong as it can never be paid off successfully. I need help getting it removed or closed. Please.

I am once again having a issue with the way that this finance company handles accounts. I have a vehicle loan with this company and it seems that they are more interested in taking car back than assisting customers. I have had this loan and worked very hard to get my account caught up. Once it was caught up I was injured at work and needed to miss payment while waiting for short term payments to start. I called to see if my payment can be deferred to the end of my contract or held for a month until payments started and no one at company was willing to help. The only reply I get from them is that my car will be shut off and picked up.

I recently ( XX/XX/2018 ) tried to apply for an auto loan through my credit union and was denied due to a previous existing auto. Mind you I am a first time car buyer so I was unsure of what account they were referring to. I am not very educated on exactly how credit works outside of the normal usage ( spending lines, purchases, etc ). When I went to pull my credit reports from all three bureaus is when I noticed this problem. From the way the account appears on my reports, I am not the primary account holder but some how I am in a joint bind with another person that I have no knowledge of. I wish to address this matter immediately.

We purchased a vehicle from XXXX XXXX in XXXX, NY XX/XX/2021. Due to poor credit, we were only able to get an auto loan from Credit Acceptance. The finance person stated we had to have the warranty plan with this funder. When signing the contract, he said that although it says optional we were required because the credit score we had. We could barely afford the monthly payment we were given and would have never chosen a warranty if it was optional. We were lied to by the finance person at this dealership. Our interest rate was 22.99 % and the cost of the vehicle was XXXX. Our finance charge was XXXX which seems high and inaccurate.

I voluntarily surrendered a XXXX XXXX after it kept breaking down. I paid thousands of dollars to have multiple items fixed and then the engine had to be replaced. I had a vehicle warranty on it, and it did not cover all the parts ( the auto dealership told me it was bumper to bumper ). It was beyond the lemon law time period, and they would not work with me. They sold it for an amount beyond what they have on my credit report after I surrendered the XXXX. I tried settling the amount and they will not work with me. I have disputed Credit Acceptance Corporation 's amount and also asked for them to remove the account off my credit.

I bought a XXXX XXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX through credit acceptance who I recently found was sued for the same type of actions. I have only had the truck a few months. Whole driving it the frame broke in XXXX pieces they refuse to move the loan to another truck. My down payment was added to the cost instead of subtracted. They have me down as XXXX XXXX XXXX man born in XXXX on the paper work. The cost of the truck is double what I was told it would be.they are calling me about XXXX times a day and even call on Sundays. The amount of issues with this company is truly a lot. I can't run my business because I have no truck.

I am writing to complain about the unfair and inaccurate reporting of my auto loan delinquency on my credit report. I experienced financial hardship during the COVID-19 pandemic, which made it difficult for me to make my loan payments on time. I contacted my lender and explained my situation, but they were not willing to work with me on a payment plan or other accommodations. As a result, I missed several payments between XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. My loan is now paid off but the delinquency marks remain on my credit report. I have tried to dispute these marks with the credit reporting agencies, but they have not removed them.

CREDITACPT is on my credit report under AUTOLOANS With a balance of XXXX and no further information. This does NOT show on my XXXX XXXX which also hinders me from keeping accurate track of my score. This has been affecting my score and I have had no knowledge of this. I have contacted this company and they have not answered multiple times. No CSRs have taken my call. I do not recognize this company nor balance. This is incorrect and needs to be removed. It is hindering me from purchasing a vehicle thru any dealership for they see this as a repossession in my name and that is not correct. I have never had a vehicle repossessed.

Upon getting a new vehicle, i voluntarily surrendered my vehicle and made a verbal agreement on the phone with bank rep to pay {$100.00} per month. After the vehicle was auctioned off the bank requested the full amount which was over {$5000.00} immediately. After telling them i could not pay all that up front and that an agreement was made for {$100.00} per month, the bank decided to threaten me with a lawyer who never called me and now we have to go to court. They auctioned the vehicle for less than what the value was then tacked on a repo fee also. Credit acceptance also has added an unfair amount of interest on the loan.

Obtained loan to purchase a used car XX/XX/XXXX for a XXXX XXXX with 101,637 miles on odometer. Borrower put {$3800.00} down as deposit and borrowed {$15000.00}. Now it's XX/XX/XXXX and the blue book value of the car ( {$10000.00} ) is less than 50 % of the Account Balance ( {$22000.00} ). At this point there is no way to get out from under this predatory loan. To add insult to injury, we spent {$4000.00} fixing the car before calling to surrender it ( timing chain tensioner failed, jumped teeth, and the valves hit the piston ). Credit Acceptance should not be allowed to make loans like this to vulnerable consumers.

They sent the wrong amount owed on my vehicle to my insurance company and in return collected the wrong amount owed. They then tried seeking collection from me In which i filed a complaint against XXXX with the Arkansas board of insurance. They contacted XXXX whom paid this vehicle off in full. This should not be a negative impact against my credit. I was not at fault for their miscommunication and now I'm suffering from the effects. Please help me remedy this situation.

Hello, I have a loan with Credit Acceptance. I have been making my payments mostly on time. I believe this year I have fallen behind 3 or 4 times. I am even on autopay as of XX/XX/2023. This company has been reporting me making late payments because I make agreements for a lesser amount of what is owed. This is not a late payment but a payment arrangement. I have tried calling and refutting this information but they say this is a valid status. I even tried making a dispute with XXXX and they did not change the status back. This has been happening for 3 years and doesn't make sense. Can someone look into this for me?

I have submitted multiple disputes to remove Credit Acceptance collection from my credit report for over a year. I totaled my car XX/XX/2021 and it was written off before Credit Acceptance bought my loan and added {$5300.00} to the original amount. Credit Acceptance continues to try to collect the debt from me for {$5300.00} and ithey keep reporting this going on 150 days. My original loan was for {$15000.00} and only after my lloan was sold did an extra XXXX was added. And I just saw the news article on your website that Credit Acceptance is being sued in NY because they are doing it to majority of their customers

Every time I am contacted by credit acceptance or call them. They use abusive debt collection practices. Demanding I make a payment immediately and then continue to ask why I am late. After, I have called and explained why several times. They refused to accept my card information until I tell them why I am late every time. I have asked them to stop using these tactics and they continue to refuse. This violated the fair debt collection practices laws. I have offered to pay them. Asked the rep. to please stop asking me every time she will not. Then refused to take my payment information. Making it a violation again.

The auto house in my city was scamming people big time it was all over the news and I was one of the customers involved. I went in to purchase a car and they had just got a trade in. They immediately sold me the car without checking the car out. I was promised that if I found anything wrong to bring it to them to be fixed free of charge. After 2 weeks I tried to get them to start fixing some major problems such as no heat, XXXX converter clogged up, and more they failed to honor their word. The car barely ran and I let them take it back. I need them to remove that crap from my credit report it's really hurting me.

This is causing my account to constantly be dinged as 120 days past due. I have provided gap coverage from the contract I signed when getting the car. They didnt satisfy the loan so they have sent me through so much troubles to get this off my report. They have garnished my checks which is really a pain because I dont have it. They are fraudulent crooks. They have no reason having my account as an open installment still.

My first issue with this company is that they're reporting late payments to the credit bureau that do not make sense. They're stating that I was 30 days late 2 times, 60 days late 2 times, and 90 days late 12 times. This is incorrect information. I have asked for documents countless times.

I do n't understand what is going on. After receiving threatening calls ; I had to change my number because the harassment kept continuing after i told them that I did n't sign for a car. Since changing my number the calls have been coming again, but now they are using a " Blocked '' or " Private '' number.

Credit acceptance illegally reports false information to your credit report. They initially denied knowledge of my vehicle but upon first complaints via CFPB they all of a sudden had every detail about a car they failed to properly report to the credit bureaus. They have fake people calling posing as counsel, theyre still improperly reporting the status of our account despite the account legally needing to be dismissed or charge off status. we gave all military documentation and orders to further prove and yet theyre still sticking to the theatrical tactics on a 7 year old account Their latest charade

Per book value but they charged me over {$6000.00} for it and it also had over XXXX XXXX miles on it. I have jad to replace multiple parts and now the engine is blown in it as well as transmission issues. I am on a small income and now cant afford to get it fixed.

On XX/XX/XXXX I bought an used vehicle and the car dealer got me financed with Credit Acceptance Later when I checked on an auto loan calculator, I realized that I was being billed much more than the actual loan payments and the loan company wouldnt explain or show me why there was a large difference of money between the actual loan payment and my monthly payments. I struggled with them to straighten that out and I ended up surrendering the vehicle to them and let them take it back on XX/XX/XXXX. I read that there was a lawsuit against that loan company for overcharging customers and I was one of them.

Credit Acceptance Corp reported my payment 30 days late in the month of XXXX and XXXX although the payment was paid in XXXX and XXXX. This inaccuracy in reporting is damaging the credibility with other lenders. Credit Acceptance own internal reporting does not indicate that the payment is late, nor do they assess a late fee for the period in which they insist was delinquent. They refuse to fix the issue by contacting the three main credit bureaus to report the error. Credit Acceptance is a predatory lender that is taking advantage of individuals attempting to establish or rebuild their credit.

Credit Acceptance offered me a horrible loan. This led to repossession of my car. They sent the repossession amount to a law office in XXXX, Ohio. Law office sent me paperwork allowing me to make payments on the loan. The day after I received the paperwork they started garnishing my wages before the date stated on the paperwork. Ive paid at least {$3000.00} off of the loan. This is not reflected on my credit report. Ive disputed the amount with XXXX. Credit Acceptance is reporting to XXXX that the amount on my credit report is accurate. This is not true and I have court documents stating otherwise.

In XXXX, 2017 I attempted to finance a vehicle from credit acceptance corporation. The dealership attempted to extort me for additional cash after the finance paperwork had been signed for credit acceptance. I never took delivery of the vehicle. I never had possession of the vehicle. I have never made a payment other than the down payment I was never refunded. The vehicle has never been registered in my name. There is no lien on the vehicle. I have tried to dispute the debt with the credit bureaus. I have tried to dispute it with credit acceptance directly. They havent sent the debt to collections.

Back in XX/XX/XXXX I lost my job due to the pandemic and was unable to pay my car note. When I called and spoke with representatives they told me I would be fine because they were implementing a program for COVID relief that would put a freeze on credit monitoring. The next month I got the hit on my credit still, My payment history prior was perfect! I even paid twice in advance its the only late payment on my report and is hindering me from being able to get things I deserve. Ive reached out to the company ceo with a goodwill letter and was simply told they dont remove late payments. Please help.

I hate to be revisiting this issue but this a huge problem on your end that needs to be rendered immediately. You are reporting inaccurate information on my credit report. You are reporting late payments from XX/XX/2020 to XX/XX/2020. Not only did you not notify me of the late payment and the delinquency on my report which is required by LAW. You are also reporting inaccurate information which is a violation of 15 USC 1692 d ( 1 ) and a defamation of character. I have been making on time payments and this account needs to be updated to paid on time immediately or further action will have be taken.

The federal law 15 USC 1605 ( a ) a finance charge is a " sum of all charges '' payable directly or indirectly by the person to whom the credit is extended, and imposed directly or indirectly by the creditor as an incident to the extension of credit. So there should have no late payments to be reported on my credit report. I further remind you that you may be liable for your willful non-compliance. Be aware that I am making a final goodwill attempt to have you clear up this matter. I will seek damages from your company for violating my consumer rights under Fair Credit Reporting Act if permitted.

I have been trying for the last 3 years to catch XXXX back car payments up, even doubling up on my payments every month but no matter how much I pay they keep adding charges on to it and I'm still falling behind and it's showing my payments are always late on my credit report. No one I've talk to has been able to help me. They say " well, it's going down '' ... .NO, it's going UP!! They were supposed to put those two payments at the end of my loan so I don't know what's going on or how to fix it. I can't pay no more than I'm paying now and I'm thinking of getting a lawyer to resolve this issue!

They claimed they sent it to me over 2 weeks ago along a check. Their response to my numerous calls was to keep waiting, which I did, even though I had already sold the car to someone else. I spoke with XXXX and she stated that I could pay for a duplicate title which I stated I didnt lose the title, they did, and should have to pay. There was no tracking number for what they allegedly sent. I need this to be resolved ASAP.

There is an account listed on my credit report by Credit Acceptance Corp. It is listed as open when in fact it is closed. Furthermore this account is damaging my scores horrifically! They ( credit acceptance corp ) continue to report to the bureaus that this account is open and 120 days past due every month for years! That is not possible!!! - it is not open! It has been closed for years. If you look at the Monthly Payment there is no monthly payment because it is closed! This account has been marked late 120 days for the last few years and it's closed! this should not be on my report at all.

Credit Acceptance sent inaccurate information to credit bureaus. They reported account was closed and charged off. This inaccurate information also negatively affected my credit, to the point where I was denied an auto loan after a vehicle was totaled as a result of the adverse information which they reported to the bureaus. Which affected me by not being able to replace that vehicle. Credit Acceptance knows they are wrong, There are numerous consumer lawsuits, A class action suit settled recently against them. Truth in lending violations in my contract, as well as predatory lending tactics.

Credit Acceptance Corporation has recently started displaying an account status of late 120 days on my credit report. This is incorrect as the account was previously reported as a repossession & was previously charged off. I have never received any response to validation of debt requests nor any response to this issue. The account is too old to be reported on my credit report according to Texas state law. This is my final attempt to resolve the issue before filing suit according to FCRA & the Texas Fair Debt collection act. I do not acknowledge this debt as I have never received validation.

Credit Acceptance sent me a tax form stating the auto loan was forgiven and it was mandatory to file the form with my taxes. Now I am seeing the debt of the loan being re-aged and reappearing on my credit. Since the loan was cleared as a gift for the forgiveness of repayment it must be deleted from all credit bureaus reporting on my credit immediately and stop reporting it as re-aged. The loan was taken in 2014 and has been over 7 years of it reporting. Why is the loan still on my credit being re-aged? Other auto companies are running my credit and finding the repossession still reporting.

I was affected by fraudulent and deceptive practices. 1. I was charged for a maintenance warranty service, which was added to the sales price. This illegally over capped my interest rate.. 2. The car dealer documented the wrong mileage on the service contract, causing the service plan to be void. No licensed mechanic would service the vehicle. Making repairs impossible. 3. I was charged excessive add-on fees. Due to Credit Acceptance plethora of lawsuits for fraud and deceptive practice against their consumers. I am giving Credit Acceptance a chance to correct this critical situation.

I've experienced some rough patches in life that were very difficult to handle due to some some personal issues. I have always tried my best to get every single payment in on time, however there were a few times in the past that I was late. Ever since then, I have been a great customer and have even paid early a few times. With the exception of those few late payments, my track record for paying on time has been great. However, the few times that I was late shows up on my credit report and this can make it extremely hard to qualify for a mortgage, auto loan, etc. as I'm sure you know.

I XXXX XXXX entered into a consumer credit transaction with Credit Acceptance and XXXX XXXX. These two organizations used deceptive and manipulative acts to coerce me into signing a auto contract. The two companies did not disclose my right to rescind. This transaction included a Finance Charge which is the sum of all charges according to the Truth in Lending Act. I was manipulated into paying cash as a down payment and making monthly payments for a vehicle. Violation of the Truth in Lending Act holds XXXX XXXX and Credit Acceptance criminally and civilly liable for noncompliance.

The account that credit acceptance is reporting is identified as a ''repossession, yet they continue to report late payments. Since the vehicle is no longer in my possession, it would be impossible for me to default on payments after the fact. I have the right to an accurate credit file and discrepancies like this are unacceptable. Please immediately remove this account in its entirety from my credit file. A monthly payment should not exist after a repossession has occurred. They report the account later every month. I no longer have the car. They sold the car at an auction.

I purchased a 2016 about 2 to 3 years ago and still paying a high monthly payment with a high balance. If I can continue to pay, i would have paid for this used car twice due to high interest rate. This is very unfair and needs to be stopped. When I purchsed the car it had about XXXX miles and i was in a Chapter XXXX and was not to exceed XXXX dollars. They sold me the car for abouyXXXX and added XXXX in interest. This is so very unfair. I have been struggling to pay XXXX monthly for the last several years and I have fallen behind due to lack of work and a lack of finances.

The company Credit Acceptance Corporation charged off my account in XXXX of XXXX and reported it as a charge off/ collection for 4 years. Then in XXXX of XXXX started reporting it again monthly as an open account thats 180 days late every month since then. Theyre doing just to keep my credit score suppressed which is illegal.

I have since settled this debt with the company and want the deragotory information removed from my credit report.

Credit Acceptance went to court in XX/XX/XXXX and won a default judgement against me for a loan that should have been covered by my insurance and GAP insurance. The vehicle was totaled in XX/XX/XXXX. When I had originally signed for the loan, I know I signed for GAP insurance and the vehicle was also sold to me with a recall on it. I had to wait over 2 weeks while the faulty timing chain was replaced. Credit Acceptance is still reporting to the credit agencies it is over 90 days late. They have no email for correspondence. They do not answer the phone when I try to call.

I sent out certified copy of my complaint to resend the contract to the CEO of the lending company on XX/XX/2022. I declared there was a problem, with the contract that was given to me the car lot that was associated with the loan that was given to me has officially closed down. There was a lot of fraudulent acts within that contract, and I reset out certified copies of a complaint again on Thursday XX/XX/2022 to the CFO and see COO of the loan company. I am expecting some type of mediation and the return of all the money that I had put into the loan return to me.

Credit Acceptance Corporation has notated on my credit report that it was a Repossession/Foreclosure. That information is incorrect I never had a Foreclosure I never own any property. However, if I was to use my GI Bill and to purchase a home the word Florclosure could prevent me from purchasing a home. As a matter of fact, it is preventing me from purchasing a home. I would like Credit Acceptance Corp to remove the word Florclosure from my credit report because it's misleading it seems like I could have had a Foreclosure when I had a repossession. Thank you.

Nothing was really explained as to why it was charged, it was simply here 's the fee with no explanation behind it. I was under a lot of stress just trying to get a car because of how quickly I was going to need it for work. Because of the distress that I was under I was not able to ask any of the proper questions and they had the ability to charge me any sort of Financial Charge without me being able to question it.

The account is closed and paid off by settlement meaning no more inquiries should be popping up on my credit report it was paid off months ago. I was in a terrible car accident and the insurance and financial company didnt want to do anything about even the few lawyers I talked to said these are the worst companies to do business with as they always try to get out of paying any money towards accidents. Now they keep putting out inquiries to the credit bureau, now messing up my credit score that Ive been in the process of fixing so that Ill be able to buy a home.

CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORP is reporting a car repossessed and late even after the vehicle was totaled this is a violation of the FCRA. They reported the account late every month for years, but this is inaccurate the car was never repossessed it was totaled in 2020. I'll sue under the FCRA sections US Court of Appeals Ninth Circuit, No 00- 15946, NELSON vs. CHASE Manhattan for Defamation and financial injury. Because " CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORP '' at this point is purposely reporting information to the credit bureaus inaccurately which goes against the FCRA and FDCPA.

Credit acceptance Corp reported on XX/XX/2021 {$10000.00}. This account was already paid in full. I spoke With them when I was Buying my house a few months ago and they verified the account was paid in full. The original amount was {$19000.00} and a payment of {$8500.00} was a settlement amount they agreed on and then after the settlement they added it back to my credit as delinquent in the amount of {$10000.00}. This is false reporting and I want them to be held accountable. I almost Wasnt able to buy my house because of this and my interest rate is higher now.

Told them after $ XXXX of dollar being spent to fix this car its still not fixable and I was on reemployment assistance but was not receiving any income. Guy stated nothing they can do, so payment is messing up credit. He just wants to extend my payments but its higher now because they ended up repossessing my car and I had to use my savings to get the car just for it to become messed up again and its currently being fixed on once again. Tried to come to a agreement for reasonable price but they insist I pay {$8000.00} debt left in this time of hardship.

I've contacted Credit Acceptance, asking them to verify the debt. Along with all the original documents along with my signature. I was given a balance over the phone of {$4000.00} to pay off my debt. Now the balance is now over XXXX. Despite me contacting them and asking them to verify my debt. They continue to report late payments to my credit report, and have failed to send me any settlement offers or verify the debt owed. I no longer have the vehicle so I'm not understanding why they are asking for a large amount when the vehicle has been sold.

I had a car financed with Credit Acceptance and the engine blew. I called them and and they asked if I wanted to return it but never indicated that it would be considered a repossession. Had I known I would have kept the car even though it wasn't running. I just don't understand they never at any point indicated that it would report negatively on my report. We also agreed on a settlement for which I paid. I don't think that is correct that there was no mention that the account would report bad since they are the ones that recommended turn it in.

The car was totaled 2 years ago and my insurance paid for the car. They then tried to sell the debt to a collection company. I finally got the account closed and removed from my credit report and worked hard to build my credit back and they have now put it on bureaus again, without telling me anything. Now they are harassing me with collections threatening to hold this against me. The account shows the age but they make it look as if it is an open account and that I am just late paying, it is fraudulent and the account needs to be closed.

CREDIT ACCEPTANCE is non compliant with METRO2 Format compliance as this company is aware that it is reporting an unverified auto loan account with my personal information to their system. Credit Acceptance is apart of a scheme targeting minorities with bad credit, and also by refusing to remove inaccurate information reporting on one 's credit report. Credit Acceptance also continues to threaten me with mail stating I owe a debt that is not unverified, and only reporting to one consumer agency XXXX who's also refusing to remove it.

This is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, who is submitting this CFPB complaint myself, and to inform you that there is no third party involved in the process. I have a loan with CREDITACPT. I have always made my payments on time. For some reason, I realized that there were late payments on my credit report. I have read enough to understand my rights. The 3 Credit Bureaus are required to verify for themselves, but they failed to neither verify nor update me about these complaints. Please update or remove the late payments from this account.

I financed the car through a dealership in XXXX of 2018 that was crooked. There were many issues with the car and I tried giving the car back but to no avail. I called credit acceptance several times to have my payments lowered because they kept adding on fees I have no idea how and they would not explain it to me. In addition to giving me the running around and telling me something different ever time I called. This whole situation has put me through suffering and damages to my credit and livelihood. And has been truly a nightmare.

Every month Credit Acceptance Finance company is reporting to all 3 of my credit reports as if I'm late in making a car payment. The account with Credit Acceptance has been closed since XX/XX/2017, the month and year that they picked up there vehicle. How can they still be reporting to all 3 credit bureaus like the account is still active? They've had there car back since XX/XX/2017 and they still reporting as if I still have the car and I'm making late payments, that info is incorrect reporting to my credit for almost 2 years now.

CREDIT ACCEPTANCE provided a misleading contract, including advertising. It was without knowledge to transfer actual cash value from me, the alleged borrower, to the bank and return it to the alleged borrower as a loan. The banks intent was to receive cash value and return cash value as a loan. They also include interest charges on the transaction all funded by my signature. It was not my intent to fund my own bank loan. This was misleading and is a breach of contract. The account number is XXXX The finance charge is {$9900.00}

The whole 2019 they have not reported or tried to collect. They also never sent me any notification that they did not try to sell the car.

As I had already made arrangements with different custormer service reps. Wrong fully repossessed car. I'm not able to pay. Thank you. XXXX

During Covid-19 me and my husband experienced reduced hours and job loss which made it hard to pay our car loan from credit acceptance. We explained our situation with credit acceptance and are currently on a reduced payment plan that we have made on time payments on but credit acceptance has reported XXXX late payments on our credit reports which are dramatically affecting it. From the dates of XX/XX/2020 to present. This is predatory and violates fair credit reporting. My credit shouldnt negatively be impacted during Covid 19.

The day before the car was to go up for auction ( XX/XX/21 ) the finance company released the vehicle to someone other than myself or the other owner. They will not tell me who the vehicle was released to and They are still holding me responsible for this loan.
