      Exeter has been reporting late payment on my account since Sept. 22. I contacted them DEC 1, 2022 and spoke with someone and they provided me with a payment extension for Sept 22 & Oct 22, they sent the form on Dec 1, 2022 and I signed the form on Dec 3, 2022. I checked my credit recently and I see that it has been reporting late SEPT, OCT, NOV< DEC, and JAN. I called and was told I needed to email the report and forms showing where I did sign, I did that and was told it had to be sent via the portal. I then submitted the forms via the portal. I was then told it needed to be mailed in to disputed. I disputed the issues with all credit reporting agencies, providing the signed form and stating that it was submitted so I don't understand how it late. I received a letter back from Exeter stating nothing would be updated, the late payments were staying. I then called Exeter and explained the situation and was told the extension was not applied because it was never received and that is why the late payments are remaining. Exeter agent basically insisted I never completed the form. I then contacted the company Doc Sign and confirmed in fact I did sign the form and it was sent to me on DEC 1, 2022, and then submitted to them on DEC 3rd 2022. I had Douc Sign email this along with forwarding over the confirmation email that was sent on that day when I signed. I emailed all this information to Exeter again and was told to send via portal. I then sent via the portal then I was told told this should be handled by the phone. I called Exeter back once agin and the first agent stated I should be emailing customer service about this, I explained I had done this, he too insisted well I didn't submit the form and it was my responsibility to make sure the form was received, even though I received a confirmation email that came from edocs@exterfiance that the form was completed and sent. No one is trying to assist or look into the issue with their system, I need help addressing.

      RE:*************************** - Case # ********

      To Whom It May ********

      On March 17, 2023, Exeter Finance LLC (Exeter) received notice regarding a complaint filed through the Better Business Bureau. Exeter would like to thank *************************** (*****) for the opportunity to address the concerns outlined in the complaint. Exeters success is based on customer satisfaction with our products and services, so the issues presented in this complaint are taken seriously and every effort is made to provide a prompt and equitable response.

      On June 10, 2022, Guary signed a Note, Security Agreement and Truth In Lending Disclosure Statement (Contract) for the purchase of a vehicle with AutoPay,LLC, which assigned the Contract to Exeter.

      On November 28, 2022, Guary contacted Exeter regarding the account delinquency.Guary was offered a two-month extension for the past due September 2022 and October 2022 payments contingent upon the receipt of the signed extension form.Due to a processing error, a Payment Extension Notice was sent instead of the extension form requesting Guarys signature. Exeter apologizes for the error and the inconvenience it has caused.

      To remediate this complaint amicably, Exeter has processed the two-month extension for the September 2022 and October 2022 payments, effective December 1, 2022.In addition, an update has been submitted to the credit reporting agencies to remove the late marks caused by Exeters error. Please allow up to 45 days for the update to reflect on Guarys credit file. Any delinquencies reported prior to the extension are unrelated to the processing error and will remain on their credit file.

      We trust that this answers any questions associated with the complaint. If Guary has any questions about these or any other concerns, Exeter encourages them to contact the Office of the President at ************.

      My car was repossessed and I paid the fees of $1500.00. I log into my online account and see a large amount due so I called to see what the additional fees that are listed just as fees were. Just states $495.00 other fees. I was told I would be transferred to another department for explanation. The representative then said that line was not available. I tried to explain I had an receipt that had a different amount and he couldn't explain why my account was different the just said that is my **************** fees they charge. He then pretended to be a supervisor, I disconnected and called back and was told that the $495.00 was a towing fee. I again asked how if the invoice have is different. I requested a copy of the invoice she had and I was refused and told to call the repossession company. All paperwork shows Exeter Finance . She could not tell my why my finance company wouldn't send me a breakdown only to try the company that's 10 minutes from the repossession location a call. I was told it's not due and can be moved to the end of the loan which is great. Just not sure why I can't have the invoice with the charges she states . I offered to send my invoice and no response to accepting the documents from the repossession agency. This sounds odd also I could not find any LEGAL proof that ******* charges fees for your car been repossessed. I have proof the amount on the invoice is different . I want a copy of the invoice that they state they charged $495 to have the car towed. Also an explanation of why they are listed on the invoice with a different amount.

      I am rejecting this response because:   I spoke with a representative who then said she was transferring me to a supervisor who is the one who REFUSED to give me a copy of the invoice  the company stated it had. I have submitted the actual fees charged on the form and once again today asked for an explanation of why the difference with another I guess fake supervisor who stated I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH THE BBB AND HAVE TO WAIT FOR THEIR INVESTIGATION TO BE COMPLETE. Once again no help and once again denied the invoice from them. This response doesnt even acknowledge my documentation or state why the difference in charges

      I bought a 2012 Honda CR-V through ********************* of **********. I have poor credit and was given an interest rate of 20%. I became disabled so I went through another company to see if I could refinance for a lower interest rate. I didn't do any research and ended up getting my car refinanced with a company called Exeter Finance for $14,304.88 at a *****% interest rate for 60 months which I thought was good at the time. However they have very shady business practices which is reflected in their multitudes of poor customer reviews and because I am paying more in interest every month than what is being applied to the principle. I want to pay my loan off now, however, this company does not allow full payoff of the loan, rather they do it in $3,000 increments, probably as a way to either get more interest or so they can take your vehicle. I have never heard of a company not allowing a full payoff of a vehicle loan. I just want to be finished with Exeter Finance and not have to deal with them any longer.

Exeters success is based on customer satisfaction with our products and services, so the issues presented in this complaint are taken seriously and every effort is made to provide a prompt and equitable response. Exeter has thoroughly investigated the complaint and made the following determination.

      On January 4, 2022, ******* signed a Notice and Security Agreement (Contract) to refinance the 2012 Honda CR-V (Vehicle) with ****************, which was later assigned to Exeter. The Contract payment schedule provided for 60 monthly payments of $323.13 beginning January 30, 2022. All required information regarding the terms of the Contract were disclosed on the Contract as required by law; the signed Contract shows that all parties agreed with the terms and conditions stated.

      Please note that this is a simple interest account,as set forth in the Contract, which means interest accrues daily and must be collected first out of each payment received. Exeter applies all payments received as follows: first to earned and unpaid interest, second to principal, and third to other amounts owed under the Contract (e.g., late fees).

      Regarding payment options, Exeters payment system allows ACH payments to be processed up to $3000.00 per transaction. Our records indicate that ******* made multiple payments in increments up to $3000.00 and the account was paid in full on March 19, 2023, with an overage amount of $31.49. A refund check for the overage amount will be mailed to ******* address on file. ******* should allow up to 30 days for delivery.

      ****************** request, under separate cover, they will receive a copy of their executed Contract and a Statement of Account, showing all account activity through March 20, 2023. Also included, is a Simple Interest Tool that *** help ******* better understand how interest was calculated over the life of the account.

I am here on military orders and need MY CAR for transportation. They are giving me the complete run around. Acting as if they don't know what the heck I am referring to. The. tried to walk around my request and act as if they didn't know I was a service member when in fact in 2018 I requested my APR to be adjusted due to SCRA laws because I was deployed. Date of complaint 6 March 2023. I paid out ****+ to the shipping agent and if I don't receive the letter I requested I pay additional fees $150 a day to be exact. This is a hinderance for me as a Service Member and I am quite sure that they're doing this to other SMs.

      I have had additional extenuating circumstances that have led me to fall behind again, I was trying to make a payment but it won't let me on the site, all the reps I've dealt with are not cooperating, I am requesting another extension so I can catch up. My house caught fire and been dealing with that. I know the company has helped me before but I am in a difficult situation

      Exeter empathizes with *************************** and the personal difficulties that are preventing them from making their payments on time.

      (The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
      Is it possible for someone to override that I need to make payments in order to qualify for the extension? That kind of defeats the purpose of extension. This is a dire situation, please help.

      They are asking me to call in, but when I call in, no one can assist me, even with the dire situation I am facing, and that is not proper customer service. It would be greatly helpful if they can ***** me one additional extension to assist me in this time.  I do not understand why they say to call, but when I call, there is no assistance?

      I bought a car in January of 2018 the car's cost was $11000 I got financing through Exeter finance I paid $400 a month for 42 months then the car got totaled my insurance company paid $6800 more that's a total of $23600 twice what the car was valued at OriginallyNow Exeter finance wants an additional $3600 from me and IRefuse to pay they would not give me a payoff amount because they compound their interest daily and rip off a consumer. I am a senior citizen 66 years old and they don't care who they take advantage of period today I got a letter offering me a settlement for 35% now why would they do that if they didn't know that their practices were unlawful . I'm basically sending this complaint to warrant others of this finance company I have no intention of paying the $3600 that they are seeking or even the 35% I have never been taken advantage of so badly in my life. Buyer beware do not finance your car through Exeter finance

      RE:************************* - Case # ********

      To Whom It May ****************** March 20, 2023, Exeter Finance LLC (Exeter) received notice regarding a complaint filed through the Better Business Bureau. Exeter would like to thank ************************* (*******) for the opportunity to address the concerns outlined in the complaint. Exeters success is based on customer satisfaction with our products and services, so the issues presented in this complaint are taken seriously and every effort is made to provide a prompt and equitable response.

      On April 14, 2022, Exeter was notified that ******** vehicle was declared a total loss as of March 30, 2022. Exeter provided the insurance company a 15-day payoff quote of $10,512.75. On April 25, 2022, Exeter received a payment of $6,897.79 for the insurance claim. This amount was applied to the account with an effective date of March 30, 2022, date of total loss.

      The insurance payment did not satisfy the full amount owed under the Contract. Exeters records do not indicate that Guaranteed Auto Protection (GAP) was purchased on the account. As such, ******* was responsible for the deficiency balance remaining on the account.

      On February 22, 2023, ******* was sent a Settlement Offer, this was sent as an opportunity to collaborate with them on a mutual agreement to settle the account for less than the full balance. We are unable to substantiate ******** claim that Exeter refused to provide them with a payoff amount as stated in this complaint.

      Exeter has determined that the account balance is accurate, and no adjustments are necessary. Under a separate letter, Exeter is sending ******* a copy of the executed Contract and a Statement of Account showing all account activity through March 19, 2023.

      We trust that this answers any questions associated with the complaint. If ******* has any questions about these or any other concerns, Exeter encourages them to contact the Office of the President at ************.
