      I financed a bike from ride now, I was promised that from multiple employees that the parts for this bike wouldnt come in late. I also was lied to about the prices of the loan I was receiving. They told me the loan was for 7k and when I went to make my first payment it was actually for 10k. Then I was charged late fees due to not being given the right information. Then the bike brakes down and I have them look at it I was told I would have full insurance on this bike if there was anything wrong they it would be covered.

      On August 5th, 2022 traded in our ******************************* a 2019 ** Street Glide CVO from Ridenow Sturgis. On August 5th, 2022, my husband was given a loan with our first payment of $475.81 beginning on 09/04/2022.On September 2nd, 2022, we completed an online payment in the amount of $475.81 plus a $8.95 Service Fee. I have attached this confirmation email. Also on this date, I completed and mailed the Recurring Ach Payment Agreement for future payments. When speaking with ********************* on October 6th, 2022, we were told there is no record of this payment. Given our original purchase/trade-in paperwork was completed incorrectly, on September 21st, 2022 we signed new loan paperwork with the understanding the new paperwork would replace the old paperwork. On October 6th, 2022, we received another welcome call from ********************** Within this call, naturally, questions arose as we were not "new" customers. At this time we discovered, the loan opened when we purchased the bike on August 5th, 2022 was not replaced nor never closed. Instead, an additional loan was opened. To date, we continue to get **** communication, payment requests, phone calls, and emails regarding both loans. It has now been 82 days days from when we purchased the ** Street Glide CVO. We have informed RideNow we will not be making any additional payments until this matter is resolved as we are concerned that two loans exist for the same motorcycle and the payment we have made we are told there is no record of at *********************. We were notified last week that the payment to our previous loan company (the motorcycle we traded in) was not valid, despite us providing RideNow our title within 7 days of purchase. This means we are also still making payments on a motorcycle we no longer own. We are also receiving communication from them as we naturally dropped insurance on the bike we traded in.

      I purchased a Polaris Slingshot from this company in 2020. I sold the Slingshot in 2022 and on March 3, 2022 I cancelled all of my extended warranties and gap coverage. i was told a refund would be sent to the original lien holder *************** and then Syncrony would forward the refund to me. I waited 3 months and went into the dealership again because I did not get a refund. I was told by **** in Finance that the person who filled out the cancellation form (which I have), never filed it but he would file it and make it retroactive to March 3rd. It has now been another two months and I still do not have a refund. I called the bank and they have not received any funds to forward to me. I tried calling the dealership and I get placed on hold and no one will talk to me. I work 6 days a week and do not have time to go to the dealership again. I cannot even get someone to tell me how much i am getting back, but it is in the $5000 area. Please help

      I spoke with customer and apologized that no one has given him an update.  I am working with him and the company that we purchased the warranties through.  I am waiting on the third party company to get me the details as they are saying some of this was paid out already.  I let him know I would call as soon as I get more info from the third party insurance company.

      Better Business Bureau:

      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution would be satisfactory to me.  I will wait for the business to perform this action and, if it does, will consider this complaint resolved.

      Regards,
