      I have had my vehicle since June, however all the money I have paid on this account went towards interest. I had been making payments weekly to eat up the interest and they still apply all of my payments to interest. I would like a resolution.

      BBB Case# XXXXXXXX
      **** *******
      Account Number: XXX-XXXXXXX

      This is in response to the complaint filed against Toyota Motor Credit Corporation (TMCC) by Mr. **** *******, regarding remitted payments, principal, and interest balance on the above referenced account

      Our records reflect on June 14, 2022, Mr. ******* signed a contract for the purchase of a 2019 Toyota RAV4, with 72 payments of $792.93 due on the 29th of each month. By signing this contract, he agreed to the terms and conditions which include liability to repay the loan in accordance with the payment schedule, interest rates, optional products, and the length of the term.

      It Is Important to know, on a simple interest contract, finance charges are calculated based on the unpaid principal balance of the contract. As each payment is made, the payment amount is applied toward the finance charges that have accrued since the last payment was received. The remaining portion of the payment is applied in accordance with the terms of their contract. We will be mailing a Brochure to the system address on file or simple interest contract.

      As reflect on the attached payment history, the unpaid principal balance on Mr. *******'s account is $38,765.69, his Annual Percentage Rate (APR) is 13.06 % and his normal monthly payment amount is $792.93. As of the date of this response, Mr. *******'s daily finance charge amount is calculated as follows:

      ($38,765.69 X 13.06%) / 365= $13.87 daily finance charge amount (also called per diem)

      Mr. ******* has been making partial payments but has not made on time payments in accordance with his contract, as a result, the amount remitted is not sufficient to cover his interest (daily per diem) and reduce principal balance for his TFS account.

      TFS strives for excellence in customer satisfaction, and we hope the explanation provided is helpful. If Mr. ******* should have any further questions regarding his TFS account, he may contact our Customer Experience Center, Monday through Friday at (XXX) XXX-XXXX.

      We may include Personally Identifiable Information (PII) as necessary to the complaint as submitted by the customer. We do not control how or whether the BBB safeguards our response or the PII in our response after submission.

      Because everything I have paid goes towards interest if I make $250 to $300 a week payments that is more than monthly payment they should provide me with a breakdown everything shout not got to interest

      Account Number: XXX-XXXXXXX

      Toyota Motor Credit Corporation (TMCC) and Toyota Financial Services (TFS) are in receipt of the rebuttal filed by Mr. **** *******, regarding remitted payments, principal, and interest balance on the above referenced account. We regret to learn he is dissatisfied with our response; however, based on our review, our position remains the same

      As indicated in our previous response. On a simple interest contract, as each payment is made, the payment amount is applied toward the finance charges that have accrued since the last payment was received. The remaining portion of the payment is applied in accordance with the terms of their contract.

      Since, Mr. ******* has been making partial payments but has not made on time payments in accordance with his contract, the amount remitted is not sufficient to cover his interest (daily per diem) and reduce principal balance for his TFS account.

      TFS strives for excellence in customer satisfaction, and we hope the explanation provided is helpful. If Mr. ******* should have any further questions regarding his TFS account, he may contact our Customer Experience Center, Monday through Friday at (XXX) XXX-XXXX.

      They either send me a duplicate Vehicle Transfer doc. or nothing at all.

      What I need is: A Release of Liability document so I can get a duplicate title at the DMV. My last request was two months ago and still waiting.

      I have been paying my car payment for many years through Bill Pay. It comes directly out of my bank account. For some reason, Toyota claimed they didn't receive 2 payments, 1 for August 15, 2022 in the amount of 291.29$, and the other for August 9, 2022, for the same amount of 291.29$ even though my bank faxed them proof of payment. I have called Toyota many times over the past few months, and spent many man hours on this, which is actually their error. Finally, one supervisor said, one of the payments was credited to an old account, and they sent me one check in the amount of 291.29$I did receive that one, but have not received the other one. Each time I call Toyota, they tell me something different, and I believe they even reported me to collections, which hurt my credit score. This has been going on since Sept 12, 2022. I need that money, especially with the holidays coming. The last thing that was said, was they Requested their Admin team to further research, and that Centralized Disbursement Team would reissue it. That was on Nov 17, 2022. I still have not received the other check.

      I have been seeking a title transfer from a NV title to KY title due to moving since June 2022. Supposedly, the original paper title was requested, then delayed, then lost and it has still not reached the Mercer County clerk. I have recently made contact with the Nevada DMV who stated that the original title was sent, and that the duplicate title request was denied because the right paperwork and fee was not provided.

      I need my title transferred immediately as my registration is about to expire in December. In more than 15 calls to Toyota, they don't seem to understand the request, blame the DMV and/or Departments or Third Parties that don't speak with the public. This is not acceptable business practice and I am not going on the 7th month to accomplish this task.

      This is in response to the complaint filed against Toyota Motor Credit Corporation (TMCC) by Mr. ****** ******, regarding his concerns with completing his state-to-state transfer in the state of Kentucky. First and foremost, we apologize for any inconvenience this ongoing matter has caused.

      Our records reflect Mr. ****** contacted Toyota Financial Services (TFS) on June 14, 2022, to obtain an update regarding his state-to state request. Mr. ****** contacted Toyota Financial Services on numerous occasions to follow up on his request. Unfortunately, his follow up requests were not relayed to the appropriate teams at TFS, and due to an inadvertent error, his request was not completed in a timely manner. As a result, an expediated duplicate title request was submitted to Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) via over-night FedEx tracking number XXXXXXXXXXXX on November 29, 2022.

      Upon review of this complaint, and to ensure Mr. ******'s state-to state transfer is completed in a timely manner our Customer ******* Resolution Specialist will proactively continue to follow up on the November 29th request and contact Mr. ****** directly to discuss the status and next steps.

      In June 2022 I stopped payment on a doble payment, then Toyota said I had never even made my June payment. I have proof I did. When July came about the bank put a stopped payment on my bank account that I w as not aware of. So I missed a July payment, Once i made that payment up. They have continued to say I am two to three car payments behind. My car payment has been fixed as of November 7. I was told y account in good standing. And the payment was due of 589.91. When I checked my account today it is saying I need to make a payment of 851.42. I called numerous times toad and everyone I talked to says I am up to date.

      ******* ******
      Account Number: XXX-XXXXXXX

      This is in response to the complaint filed against Toyota Motor Credit Corporation (TMCC) by ******* ******, regarding concerns with her remitted payments on the above referenced account. First and foremost, we would like to extend our sincerest apologies for any frustration Ms. ****** endured when contacting our customer experience center to discuss her account payments.

      Our records reflect on June 6, 2022, the primary borrower of Ms. ******'s Toyota Financial Services (TFS) account remitted a one-time payment via our Toyota website for $589.91, for their May 30, 2022, payment. As reflected on the attached payment history, the remitted payment for $589.91 on June 6, 2022, was returned unpaid by their bank, followed by another payment reversal for $589.91 remitted on July 6, 2022, using the same bank account ending with ********

      As of the date of this response, Ms. ******'s account has a past due amount of $851.27, which includes a partial past due amount of $261.36 for her October 30, 2022, payment due date, and her November 30, 2022, payment of $589.91. After conducting a thorough investigation, our records reflect Ms. ******'s bank subsequently rejected a payment remitted on November 30, 2022, for $589.91, via our website. We encourage Ms. ****** to contact her financial institution to clarify any restrictions and verify if these payments are being returned unpaid as a result of a previous stop payment requested with her bank.

      Please know that Toyota Financial Services makes every attempt to positively respond to all of our customers; however, the information that TFS reports is required to be accurate and complete pursuant to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and consistent with our customer's payment history. Our records reflect that we are accurately reporting Ms. ******'s account to the consumer reporting agencies based on her payment history. Furthermore, we have confirmed there has not been any acts of violation committed on Ms. ******'s account by TFS.

      Account Number: XXX-XXXXXXX

      Toyota Motor Credit Corporation (TMCC) and Toyota Financial Services (TFS) are in receipt of the rebuttal filed by ******* ******, regarding concerns with her remitted payments on the above referenced account. We regret to learn she is dissatisfied with our response; however, based on our review, our position remains the same.

      As indicated in our previous response. As reflected on the attached payment history, Ms. ****** remitted a partial payment of $228.83, on May 28, 2022, for her April 30, 2022, payment due date. As a result, she has been carrying a partial past due payment since then. We encourage Ms. ****** to review her payment history and compare with her bank statement to confirm her remitted payments. To date, 30 payments have come due on the account making the total amount that TFS should have received $17,697.30 ($589.91 x 30 months). Ms. ****** has remitted less than the full 30 payments in the amount of $17,436.03. Her account, therefore, shows past due for $261.27.

      Please know that Toyota Financial Services makes every attempt to positively respond to all of our customers; however, the information that TFS reports is required to be accurate and complete pursuant to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and consistent with our customer's payment history.

      On November 17 I walked downstairs to go to work at 7am and found my car to be missing. After calling the police for information I reached out to Toyota and was informed that my car was repossessed. I have always made consistent payments and was to have my account on auto pay. When I was informed that I was 4 months late in payment I asked why I wasn't notified. I was then told they had sent me letters multiple times which I never received. They then checked my address and saw it was still a California address. I had updated this adress with an agent in September 2021 when I initially moved here so there is no reason my old contact should have been on file. I was then told that I have received phone calls as well but when I look at my phone log I just see multiple numbers from random area codes with no messages left. In a day of scams and telemarketers why would I answer any calls without a message or know that these are Toyota phone calls? Why did anyone from the company or dealership ever reach out to me? Within 10 hours of finding out my car was behind I laid off all late payments, late fees and towing fees totaling 2,840.00. I then had to pay an additional 100.00 in required western union urgent fees per Toyotas request . Considering the fees would be cheaper in person, i tried to go to 3 different western unions , all who couldn't find Toyota services under the billing names which me forced me to have to proceed with the WU transaction online. I have proven to be a loyal customer and consistent with payments . I want reimbursement for 550.00 in tow fees and the 100.00 in lot fees due and 63.00 in urgent fees due to the lack of follow through and communication on your employees part with not inputting my new address, when Requested in September , in order to properly contact me and for not leaving voicemails or using company phone numbers when trying to reach me regarding an urgent situation that ended up costing me 650.00 more in the long run . Thank you

      ******* ******
      Account Number: XX-XXXX-FU027

      This is in response to the complaint filed against Toyota Motor Credit Corporation (TMCC) by Ms. ******* ******, regarding the repossession of her vehicle and concerns with not receiving proper notice.
      Our records indicate on November 15, 2022, Ms. ******'s account was 97 days past due and subsequently approved for repossession, due to non-payment. Toyota Financial Services (TFS) sent several cure notices and made numerous calls to Ms. ******'s address and phone numbers on file, which has recently been updated as of November 17, 2022. It is important for Ms. ****** to know our records confirm that TFS did not receive an address update notification prior to November 17, 2022.
      As reflected on the attached payment history, we did not receive Ms. ******'s payment for the months of August, September, October and November 2022 payments. As a result, her vehicle was approved for repossession. Ms. ****** contacted TFS on November 17, 2022 (following the repossession of her vehicle) to discuss her account and she was provided with the past due balance and status of her account.
      Pursuant to the lease contract Ms. ****** signed for the referenced vehicle, if a customer should default on payments, we may take possession of the vehicle as permitted by law and require our customer to pay the amounts set forth in the contract. Therefore, we respectfully decline Ms. ******'s request for reimbursement of the fees related to the lawful repossession. We have included Ms. ******'s lease contract as part of this response.
      If Ms. ****** should have any further questions, she may contact our Reinstatement Department directly at (866) 364-8758, Monday through Friday.

      On November 10, 2022 I was notified on my credit report of a missed/late payment delinquency on my Toyota Lease account for my ********************** Is 350 2021 that I had leased through Toyota Lexus Financial. I called Toyota Financial Services on Nov 10, ********************************************************************************************************************* September on the 14th and next payment due would've been October 13th as my usual due date. Payment was due Oct 13th and vehicle was declared a total loss Oct 22nd by ***** and paid with account closed Nov 3, 2022. The late payment is inaccurate as Nov 13th, 2022 would've been the accurate 30 day delinquent time to report to credit bureau had the car not been deemed total loss by insurance and paid by insurance Nov 3, 2022. Being that this account is in closed status as of Nov 10, 2022 and total loss department with Toyota Financial services, it should not be deemed delinquent payment and impacting my credit report negatively and dropping my credit score for inaccurate reporting. This is deemed to be inaccurate and an incorrect report that I would like to be removed from my credit report and disputed for inaccuracy. I've attached all necessary documentation for review as evidence to suffice my claim. Please update and review accordingly.

      Lexus Financial Services Toyota Motor Credit sent a debt collection letter on 12/16/2022 that I have attached stating that I am to pay an amount owed debt of $619.36 for the 2021 Lexus is 350 that was declared and paid as a total loss by Geico November 3, 2022 according to Lexus. I called Lexus 1/10/2023 to resolve issue with no avail as I received no solution to resolve incorrect debt. In previous complaint against Lexus Financial Services Toyota Motor Credit for same 2021 Is 350 that I have attached to this claim as proof, Lexus stated, "Our records reflect that the account was closed as of November 3, 2022 due to insurance loss, and the balance on the account is zero. We mailed a letter of guarantee to Geico, dated November 7, 2022, advising that the title or security interest to the vehicle would be released upon receipt of the settlement payment in the amount of $49,256.69. Our records also reflect that we received the settlement payment on November 22, 2022". As of November 22, 2022 this account should be paid and closed off my credit report. The letter Lexus sent 12/16/2022 looks to be of a refund that is instead owed to me in the amount of $619.36 and an incorrect debt lexus is trying to collect. Lexus is also in violation of lease agreement as the lease is covered by GAP coverage and as of today no GAP coverage has been applied to closed account.

      Lexus/Toyota is very inconsistent and deceptive and fraudelent in thier practices. The $619.36 is a fraudelent debt that occured after payment was received by Geico 11/7/2022 in the amount of $ 42, ****** that zeroed the account balance per ********************** response to intial complaint 11/29/2022. Lexus then sent out a debt letter 12/16/2022 stating the $619.36 amount owed. Lexus GAP signed in the lease agreement in August 2021 shouldve covered this fraudlenet remaining balance.Lexus has failed to abide by thier lease agreement which includes GAP insurance and provide the payment for the remaining balance of $619.36 which came on 12/16/2022 after Lexus responded the balance had been zeroed out with account closed as of 11/3/2022. As of today January 27, 2023 Toyota/ Lexus financial services is still reporting my account for the leased Lexus 2021 IS 350 as an open revolving account in the amount of $31,999 with intial starting loan balance of $45, 600 with beginning intial payment August 2021 as I have attached as proof. This is inaccurate as the account was closed as of November 3, 2022 with a zero balance as payment had been received by geico to Lexus in the amount of $42, ****** as a total loss with a mailed letter of guarantee for the title to Geico on November 7, 2022 per Lexus intial response to deceptive credit reporting complaint to Consumer Financial Bureau on November 29, 2022 stating that account had been closed with zero balance per Lexus. I have also attached this intial reponse to this complaint as well for review. This account is inaccurate in the amount and open status and Toyota/Lexus is fraudelent and deceptive in thier credit reporting actions. I have also attached the dispute I submitted with the credit bureaus on January 24, 2023 as well to show account is still inaccurately reporting on my credit report. Lexus/Toyota is fraudulent is thier contracts and decpetive in credit reporting and services. I have attached all documents as proof of evidence for review.

      ***Document Attached***
      On March 9, 2023 I received a notice from my credit report of a delinquent account that had been charged off as bad debt by Toyota Motor Credit Lexus corporation around Feb 28,2023. After reviewing my credit report, my credit report showed Toyota had decreased the loan amount balance $31,999 to a balance of $31,438 that resulted in a charge off balance of $561 on Feb, 28, 2023. Toyota then closed account as bad debt charge off same day Feb 28, 2023. I was never notified of this new balance of $561 dated Feb 28, 2023 to either allow verifying of the accuracy of the debt or ability to dispute. I filed a complaint against Toyota Motor Credit with Consumer Financial ***************** on 1/18/2023 from a letter I received 12/16/2022 from Toyota stating an amount owed of $619.36 for the account closed on November 3,2022 with a zero balance for the total loss payment of the vehicle received by Geico in the amount of $42, ****** that I also found discrepancy in. Toyota has last stated a balance of $619.36 from letter I received but my credit report is showing a balance of $561 same day Toyota closed the account on Feb 28, 2023 as inaccurate bad debt charge off which has negatively effected my credit report and shown as delinquent account as well as never notifying me of any new amounts Toyota is again acting in fraudulent deceptive credit reporting practices. I have also filed a complaint against Toyota in regards to the discrepancy of the differences in amount balances showing on my on my credit report versus the amounts Toyota is stating. I have attached proof of my credit report and letter from Toyota.

      I did a lease buy out from Roseville Toyota in Roseville, CA during the first week of March 2022 for my 2019 Toyota Camry and I have still not received my vehicle title. I have been told that the vehicle titled would be mailed to me in 6-8 weeks and I have still not received it. I have been in communication bi-monthly with Toyota Financial Services, my auto insurer/ lien holder USAA and have had no luck receiving my title for the vehicle. It's been 8 months and I feel like this could take even longer and I may run into issues with the DMV when it comes time to register the vehicle next year. Any help in the matter would be greatly appreciated.

      This is in response to the complaint filed against Toyota Motor Credit Corporation (TMCC) by Mr. ******* *******, regarding his concerns with receiving his title in a timely manner for his purchased lease.

      Our records indicate on April 21, 2022, Mr. ******* was sent a notarized Lien Release, Power of Attorney along with Bill of Sale, via regular mail to his verified address on file. Mr. ******* contacted Toyota Financial Services (TFS) on April 29, 2022, to obtain an update on his documents that were previously requested. The expected timeframe for Mr. ******* to receive his title was 10-14 mailing days. Our records reflect Mr. ******* contacted Toyota Financial Services on numerous occasions to follow up on his request, as he did not receive the title as expected. Unfortunately, his follow up requests were not relayed to the appropriate teams at TFS, and due to an inadvertent error, Mr. *******' request for a duplicate title was not submitted until August 29, 2022 and was sent via FedEx over-night shipping. The FedEx tracking number is ************, which was delivered on August 30, 2022, to California Department of Motor Vehicles, per the FedEx website.

      Upon review of this complaint, and to ensure Mr. ******* receives his duplicate title, we will proactively continue to contact the California Department of Motor Vehicles to obtain an update on his duplicate title request and contact Mr. ******* via phone to discuss the status and next steps.

      We regret to learn of the delays that took place with Mr. *******' title and his experience with our agents while attempting to gain a better understanding of receiving the title, but we hope to have addressed this matter amicably.
