      My title was sold by the lienholder and i have not been able to renew my registration for my car since November 30, 2022. I have been calling the title **** ever since and they have always give me a run around and say there is nobody to talk to. Im still getting interest built up on a car that i cannot legally drive, and they think its okay because they are deferring a payment. Im still having to pay on interest, and have no transportion to anything because of the pussyfooting done by United Auto Credit. They repeated tell me they will get back and reach me to update me, and the supervisor has said to me multiple times that it would be resolved in a week or two, to remedy my frustration. They never call and im not getting updates. I would like someone to talk to them because they dont care what i have to say and i cant reach anybody without being connected to them first, and when they dont answer they send you to a message system. To not call back. I have talked to supervisors ****** (ext ****) and ******** (ext ****) and nothing. I just want this issue resolved so i can pay on my car and have it legal to drive.

      They are lying and have not been in contact with me or offered any kind of follow up of any kind about the situation. I'm still waiting on then to contact me.

      they are not contacting me, or even offering a deferrment anymore. I talk to somebody in title's once a week and there's no updates and they say they will defer my payment since I can't use the car, but they still have not .

      This company is a creditor I have done business with in the past, I have requested documentation to verify the debt including the price the repossesses vehicle was sold for with no response. They charged off my account in September 2016 and are reporting the account to the credit bureaus monthly as a charge, thus violation fcra laws with states a charged off account cannot report an active payment history after the charge off date. This has negatively affected my credit which trickles down to my livelihood. I dont mind settling a verified amount with the creditor however Im requesting at least removal of the account from my credit reports to assist in getting me into the financial position to pay towards the verified amount.

      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.

      United called me several times telling me that I was behind 4 months on my car payment and I asked for a print out of my payments because I know I wasnt behind. They refuse to send me a copy of my payment per *****. I had to go over to someone else and get a copy and I have made all my payments but she said I didnt. Now shes threaten to repo my car knowing all my payments was made and told me not to call back. ***** is very rude and dont need to be in nobody company period. This is the worst place I ever dealt with. I also spoke to plenty of representatives and they are confused on what they see on my account. But ***** says Im past due. I will be taking legal actions on this place and I will have ***** job also.

      On December 3, 2022 a payoff check from ***** ********** was mailed to United auto credit. Per **** it was delivered 12/7/22. Per the copy of the cashed check I have from the bank the check for $16,522 was cashed/deposited on 12/7/22. All the sudden I get a call from them that I havent made my payment. I inquire about the check and they say it hasnt been received. But it has and I have the cashed check to prove it. Accounting says they cant find it. Where is the money?! I keep getting the run around and I would like my money applied to my account. The check only had ************************* on it but the account with you all has *************************** *******. Two last names. I urge someone to look into this before I take legal action. Thats a lot of money to just be lost. I have confirmation of delivery and the cashed check copy from the bank. I have all the proof I need.

      I have had this car since **** ***** along with United Auto Credit have both been informed of all issues with the vehicle I have purchased. First one included not having the license plate and registration not being included even though I had paid for them to send those documents to me, I had to use a rental for a month and a half while they found out how to send those over to me. the car hadn't been sent with features that was listed on the site. then the battery was no good so I had to jump hoops to get a replacement. which all caused issues with employment since I'm an Uber and door dash driver and can't do that without a vehicle. now I have **** dollars worth of repairs for a body control module and I can't afford it because I have been behind from previous issues that caused employment issues and they're forcing me into self surrender and costing me money for a car that has been nothing but issues with interest rates through the roof

      Im April 2022 I bought a car from vroom. 45 days later the temp tags expired and I couldnt get anyone to explain to me why I couldnt get my plates. I reached out to UAC, eventually explaining I wasnt going to make payments on. Car I cant legally drive. They repossessed the car immediately. They then informed me that they were the parent company for vroom. And if I wanted my car back I had to pay $3200 by wire transfer immediately or they were going to auction the car off. It was at his time that ****** (contact at UAC said that they dont do any reporting of lates or repossession to credit,. Im seeking a refund for the car. Then to buyback the car, and give me back the money for rhr car that I sold to them at the same time. As well as for the wife transfer I sent them and the insurance that I have paid in premiums to date. Nothing this company tells you is legit. They literally say whatever they want to get you off their back.

      United Auto Credit took over my auto loan in March of this year and I have yet to get a title showing that UAC is the lienholder. I both call, email, and message on their website and I have not gotten any feedback or real answers to my questions.
