The Worse Experience Ever

Posted by: |

They are the worst ever. I have an Auto Loan through them, and they are so clueless; they have no idea what they are doing. They have done nothing but destroy my credit and life. They are clueless and lack knowledge of finances. They do not get back to you, they ignore you and are rude, ignorant, and disrespectful. My credit was great until these people destroyed it. You can't ever speak to a Supervisor, manager, or even the CEO. They ignore you when you are right, they take your hard-earned money and destroy every aspect of the life you once had prior to dealing with these people. Please stay clear, take your business elsewhere. Stay as far away from these people as you can; if you do not, trust me, you will regret it. You have been warned.
