I am unable to get ahold of any manager or resolution of my payment reallocation. I have been making additional payments that I would like to have applied to my principal balance however it has been three weeks for them to adjust the payment, to date it has still not been resolved. As of my last payment that was made on 8/3/2023 my ending balance was $30,386.98 according to their balance sheet. I made an additional payment on 8/11/23 of $1,635.00 which should have made my balance $29,068.32 according to the phone agent. as of 8/30 that payment has not been allocated to the account. My monthly due date is on the 21st of every month. I was advised not to make my August payment until this payment has been processed, however when I called back they said that the payment reallocation would be denied if the account is past due, so I made another payment of $1,000.00 on 8/30 to cover the August payment. Their online website does not show billing statements or transaction history. You have to request a payment history and that takes 3-5 business days so when you get it, it's already out of date. I would like my balance correctly updated and a new payment history sent to me. I am active duty military trying to get a home loan and the incorrect balance and the creditor not reporting payments to the credit agency, is hurting the process. I need some assistance regarding this matter. My account number is ***************Business Response

I'm writing about my auto loan account ending in #*****. I'm grateful for the help received in managing my financial difficulties. My last payment of $200 was made on 7/6/2023. A month ago, I was granted a deferment due to ongoing financial challenges. Unfortunately, my situation hasn't improved significantly. On 8/24/2023, I chatted with a representative on your website. We discussed extending my payment deadline to 9/14/2023 due to a $300 rent increase. My previous $1439 rent is now $1749, adding more strain. There I was informed that only 1 extension is permitted. Scheduled payments were established: - First scheduled Credit Card payment of $210 on August 31st, 2023 - Second scheduled Credit Card payment of $410 on September 14th, 2023 However, at 3:26 pm, I received an email stating I'm in default and must pay $665 by 9/6/23. Failure would lead to credit bureau reporting and vehicle repossession. I contacted customer service, learning the email was generated after scheduled payments were set up. The rep suggested the 8/31/2023 payment may provide a slight leeway but not a guarantee. I grasp the importance of financial commitments. Losing my vehicle would worsen my challenges, given its significance in my life. It's vital, especially with the rent increase potentially affecting my apartment. I assure you the scheduled payments are a priority. They're planned and will be executed without insufficient funds. While I understand credit bureau concerns, my immediate worry is losing my vehicle. Recognizing my responsibilities, I'm fully committed to resolving this situation. I earnestly request withholding any repossession proceedings for my vehicle. Thank you for considering my plea. Your support during this challenging period will ensure my transportation and “impromptu” shelter. Grateful for your time.Business Response

I paid off my vehicle last August 2022 and have yet to receive my original Title. I will not accept a duplicate title nor do I have to. I have called this company numerous time with false promises given to me of mailing me my title. The last conversation I had I was told they would send me an electronic title in which I could go to the DMV and obtain the original title. This never happened. I was also told that I would be given a call back to ensure the title information was received and it was not. Now when I call the only phone number for this company, I reach an automatic system that is not able to help me given they have changed the formating of the account numbers. When I put in my information I am not found in their system which makes sense since I have paid off my vehicle over a year ago. Instead of their automatic system getting me over to an actual person that could potentially assist me as before, it hangs up and nothing happens. I've grown very frustrated. I have paid for my vehicle and expect my original title ASAPBusiness Response

On 7/31/23 I had surgery & was out from work. I had called Flagship to make payment arrangements for my car payment & explained that I was out of work & my short term disability payments were pending due to paperwork & that the second payment they wanted to arrange was not a guarantee that funds would be available & they told me if they weren’t I could call & let them know. On Friday, 8/18/23 I was still waiting for approval for my payments so I called Flagship to let them know & asked if the scheduled payment could be reversed until the end of August to give an extension for my short term disability payments. The representative told me it was no problem, that my payment was reversed & informed me that as long as I paid by the end of August Id be fine, though I may have to pay a late fee. On Monday, 8/21/23 the payment of $415.03 was still withdrawn from my account which put my account -$300. I called a representative who told me there was nothing she could do on her end to reverse the payment. I then spoke to a supervisor who also told me she could not reverse the payment & I advised her that funds were taken out of my account against my permission which is illegal and that I would escalate the issue. This has caused me an even greater hardship during a time when I am not being paid while off on short term disability resulting from surgery & I have children in my home. I explained the money I had in my account was for a house payment as I was being threatened with foreclosure due to being behind on payments because of my leave payment’s pending & she still refused to reverse the payment. I would like to be contacted regarding this issue with a solution due to funding being taken from my account against my permission, increasing a hardship, & very poor & unprofessional customer service with this company in hopes this can be resolved without having to seek higher escalation. I have also informed them I do NOT give permission for funds to be taken without my consent.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:
The call with the supervisor was ended shorty after speaking with her because she also declined to return the payment and said it was unable to be done and suggested my bank return the payment which is not able to be done on their end because Flagship authorized it to go through as a debit card transaction and did not authorize it directly from the account. The bank explained they could do a stop payment but companies like this will commonly change the amount (example: if payment is $415.03 they will change amount to $415.01 to bypass stop payment). At this time I will be in contact with my bank to receive copies of overdraft amount for reimbursement. The payment that went through can be left as is since funds have since been directed into my account to complete the August payment. I show no history of any representative ever reaching out consecutively after the complaint nor did I receive any voicemail messages indicating that they were attempting to reach out to resolve the matter which I do have proof of in call log history. They did however, reach out automatically on my review for their company saying to get in contact with them to resolve the matter which I did not do as previous attempts were unsuccessful and I was not satisfied with the customer service received and the hardship the company caused me.

A payment of $775 was removed from my account on April 13 for a car payment. This company is telling me that they never received said payment also have been waiting three months for them to process and apply gap insurance as well as other insurance to the payment so I am able to refinance with a different bank only to find out that they did not apply the money where they said they were going to so now they are threatening me with repossession of a vehicle even though it is all their fault at this pointBusiness Response
