I am disputing, the credit reporting from Leaders Financial. I purchased the vehicle in XXXX from a friend who worked at the company at the time, my credit wasnt that great, but he said he was able to make things work on my behalf, about 4 months after having the car, I experienced some issues, I have been taking it to the dealer often. About a year later, the car stalled on me as I was driving to work, I was able to get it started again, drove to work, and left it parked there, I paid for an XXXX to get back home ( {$85.00} ). The next day I had the car towed from my job to my apartment. The next day I was told it is the radiator, and I would have to add water to the cool it down, because it was overheating. I relied on my vehicle to get back a forth to work, so I began seeking other options to purchase another vehicle. I went to a dealer that same day with the car, I called Leaders that day to ask what the payoff amount was for the vehicle, I was told it was XXXX. Unfortunately when the dealer went to inspect the car, he wasnt able to offer me anything for it, so I went back home, and decided to look the next day, at this time the car was no longer functional, and I got a rental for the week, I then went over to a dealer in XXXX, and was successful in purchasing a vehicle, I came home parked the vehicle. The next morning when I went outside the vehicle that was not working was no longer there, at this point I assumed it was stolen, because I just called leaders to ask for a payout quote, but when I called to tell them what happened, they said they would let me speak with the person who sold me the car, and he would be contacting me to determine what the issue was. I had never heard from anyone in regards to what took place, I had not received a notice of potential repossession, I was not offered an option to retrieve the car nor my belongings. Shortly after I was moving and had all mailed forwarded accordingly, and still no communication from this company. A few months later checked my credit report and there it was, I called and sent dispute letters but no resolve. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.

About a month ago I got a text message from Leaders Financial congratulating me on my auto loan and telling me the due date for first payment of {$410.00}. I had not made any such loan, had not bought a car since XXXX, and had never heard of Leaders, so I just deleted the text. On XX/XX/XXXX I got a text telling me I was 12 days overdue and to call or click Leaders. I looked Leaders Financial up online and found they were based out of New Jersey ( I live in XXXX and have not been near NJ since XXXX ) were involved in secondary auto financing, whatever that is, and had nothing but bad reviews on XXXX, so I was afraid to contact them, since it could be a scam. I thought maybe somehow it could be Identity theft, so I checked my credit report and saw no listing of a loan through this company, and have had no weird or unknown charges on any of my bank accounts or credit cards. Possible scamming keeps from calling them, so I'm filing this complaint in order for the CFPB to investigate and contact them instead of me, then let me know what is going on.

The account with Leaders Financial is closed in 2018 and the company is garnishing my checks for the amount owe, yet they are still reporting the account as late on my credit report even though they are receiving my payments from my job every month. This late reporting is keeping my score low. The name of the original creditor company is Leaders financial and the people that bought the debt are saying they have nothing to do with what is reported. Leaders keep telling me that they don't have anything to do with this account anymore, so why are they still reporting as late or even reporting at all. I have been going though this for 5 1/2 years. I can't get a loan, a car in my name and more. Please help me to remove this leaders account off of my account as I have tried over and over again. I am trying to improve my credit score as I can't even rent an apartment in my name. Please help me to remove this account.

Leaders Financial has refused to send me my title after paying my vehicle loan off back in XXXX 2016. I first had to deal with prove that you paid us which I had to fax a copy of my bank statement over because I paid the car off with my debit card. Then I was told I would have to wait 30 days after the payment was made in order to receive the title. Now today XXXX XXXX, 2016 6 weeks after I paid Leaders off they flat out refuse to send me my title. I called today and they state that they will send me paperwork that I would have to sign and send back to them and they then will need more time in order to send my title to me. Send the title now via federal express or I will see you in court. This is theft, You took my money and now you refuse to give me my title. Send it now!!
