  Hello,

  We have fully completed a *** request in our system. Unfortunately, the issue arose due to the agent you spoke with not filing the *** request properly through our channels, and merely notating the account, which does not remove it from our calling system. We have handled that situation internally with the agent involved. As per your information, we have fully processed a *** for your account, so it will no longer load into our system to call you. Additionally, we have moved all of your file to an inactive status, so that we would not attempt to contact. While one of these normally suffices, we wanted to ensure that the profile will never be contacted again. If there is anything else that we can do to help with the frustrations of this situation, please let us know.

  Thank you,

  iLending.

However, if you did have another line that was being called, please provide that here and I will file a Do Not Contact request.

  After receiving multiple adverts for iLending I finally dredged up the energy to contact them. My first red flag was how this company got my legal name to begin with, and when I questioned how they ever got my information to begin with the representative told me. "It's on the application." What application?! I had never even heard about this company until I got a piece of mail from them. The representative just continued to repeat "you don't have to continue with the application process" like I wasn't just trying to get answers about my personal information being given to a company I had never heard of. I disconnected from this representative and called back after reading online that this is a credible business. I gave them all of mine and my partner's information including social security numbers and the *** of my car, only for them to tell me at the END that they don't qualify people above a certain debt to income ratio (I was 4% off). Why is the debt to income question not one of the first that they ask before obtaining my SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER? Why do they need my social security number if they can tell me theoretically without even knowing my name that I do not qualify. The representative who picked up the phone was formal and knowledgeable enough but the beginning of the call was confusing because instead of a typical greeting it was just "iLending" or something similar. I was like..... yeah, I know who I am calling? Like what am I supposed to answer to that? I'm advising that they advertise their criteria on at least the paper they send out because I could have told them my car payment and my rent are more than 50% of my income. Not to mention the fact that I already pay $500 a month for my car so why wouldn't I be able to afford their comparable rate of $300? "It's just the guideline of the bank" is the answer I received. But that is the point. WHY does it have that guideline when I am paying $200 more than the discount they are offering already. 1/100000

  Hello ********, I wanted to help address the 3 things brought up in this email. First and foremost, we cannot determine your DTI until you give us permission to access your credit profile, and this is done via your Social Security Number. Doing this before reaching out to you, or before obtaining your consent and verifying your social is illegal. Secondly, we obtained your basic information from Experian, for they will share non-credit profile information with us when they determine that you may qualify for a new auto loan. If you no longer want your information shared, please reach out to Experian directly and change your consent settings. Finally, we work with a network of credit unions across the country, and each of them have a unique set of credit restrictions to qualify for a loan. *** is always considered in these, and the reason why is it is a risk factor for the lender on if you can actually pay back your loan. We do not determine these restrictions nor control them for we are not a financial institution. Some lenders (not in our network) will raise interest rates to allow for higher risk factors such as a high DTI, which is why you were able to originally purchase your vehicle. We do not work with institutions like this, for these are not beneficial refinances for most customers due to the high interest rates and high payments. Due to this, we were unable to find a lender that had a tangible benefit for you to refinance into. Thank you.

  I recently purchased my very first car, and after purchasing i wanted to see what other loan rates were out there. I regrettably put in my info just to see what quote I could get, but I decided to pass on their offer. I have received calls and voicemails from them every day, and sometimes twice a day. I block every number from them that tries to call me, but they have tried to contact me with at least 10 different phone numbers at this point. I ensured that I was on the "National Do Not Call List", but every day they still call me. ******** from that company tells me he can get me a better loan. I don't care ********, your offer also ***** lol. Any ways, I really just want them to stop harassing me and I honestly don't know what else to do. I thought that they'd give up after a few days of back to back trying to call me, but it's been about 2 weeks of every day calls. I didn't commit to anything, I just clicked to view quotes. I'd get it if I owed them a payment or something, but I was just browsing. I have never in all my days had a company be so desperate to talk to me.

  Hello ****! So I first wanted to address that when you provided your information and clicked that you wanted to view offers on LendingTree, you override your consent settings for being on the National Do Not Contact list. This is why we started reaching out, is due to your expressed interest in an auto refinance. However, I do recognize that you no longer want to receive any calls. As a large company, we do not work off of one phone number, and have many agents that call out daily, so blocking a number that calls you does not notify us in any way that you no longer want to receive communications. For this, all we needed was to be informed that you no longer were interested in an auto refinance. To assist, I have placed in your file that you no longer want to be contacted. Thank you.

  Hello!

  We received notification of this refund on 3/10/2025, when we received the funds for this deal. We have this submitted to go out, and I will request a cutting of this check today. Due to our legal contracts with *********************************, we must cut all funds to them directly to distribute, so be aware of this when the funds are cut.

  Thank you,

  This company is so unprofessional and used so much false information to me. When I confronted Winthrop and the managers on what misleading information was said to me, I got YELLED at over the phone. No one in this company communicates, they all ******* you with a million things, call you all day, always need something new, continue to just lie to you, then scream at you for it! I hate this company, ******** and the managers are all UNPROFESSIONAL and RUDE!

  Good afternoon Mikayla!

  I apologize for the frustrations that you encoutnered during your refinance process. I know that ****** **** reached out to you to help explain why you had received many calls following up for the remaining documents needed for your refinance. I know this can be frustrating, and it is unfortunately a required process to supply a potential lender with the supporting documentation that is needed to fund. However, I do know when ****** reached out to you, that he requested that we send a gift card for the inconvinences that you encountered during the process. This was sent on 1/13/2025, and was claimed on that same day. Due to this, I will consider this complaint closed with monetary relief.

  ILending contacted me about refinancing my auto loan. after i heard their terms and listened to the lady she was suppose to do a soft credit pull for auto refinancing so I said okay. Since then *** had several hard inquiries pulled and I called I Lending back and she said she actually authorized these companies to pull my credit report and I told her that is not what she said.

  Hello ********,

  I just spoke with you on the phone and wanted to recap our conversation. Since we decided to attempt to approve the ********************************* with your authorization on 11/8/2024, we will not be able to remove that inquiry. The second lender that received and inquiry was *********************************, and they are removing that inquiry. The final lender was ********************, and we have not received a response back about the removal of the credit inquiry. Since this decision is ultimately up to the individual lender, I cannot promise this will be removed but we have sent over all information for them to make that decision.

  Finally, I have attached a letter of consideration that you may present with any credit application or interview that will explain these inquiries. If there is anything else we can assist with on this complaint, please let us know.

  I was supposed to receive a refund from H33**35313736323534H for my gap insurance and have yet to receive it. I spoke to customer service and the representative told me it would be straightened out but then I was told they couldn&#**;t help me. I feel I keep getting the run around and I just need my refund sent to me.

  Hello ******,

  I apologize for the frustration that you have encountered during the refund process. Unfortunately, there is nothing else that we can assist with during the *** refund process. On 9/10/2024 we sent a check for the refund amount of $159.99 to ********************************* for your *** refund. This was sent to **************** due to the legal contract that we have with them, and they will be responsible for distributing the funds to you. I have attached a copy of this cashed check, that states the *** number of the vehicle and shows that this check is for you in the memo line. We sent this via ***** with the tracking number of 778500872457.

  Since we have already sent the funds, there is nothing else that we can do on our side of the refund process. If you need additional assistance, please reach out to **************** to see how to receive the funds.

  Thank you.
