Consumer Narrative

This occurred on XX/XX/XXXX I am writing you because you broke laws against me as a consumer. Your company is legally supposed to uphold the Truth and Lending federal law. Per the law 15 U.S.C 1662 Advertising of down payments and installments : No advertisement to aid, promote, or assist directly or indirectly any extension of consumer credit may state ( 1 ) that a specific periodic consumer credit amount or installment amount can be arranged unless the creditor usually and customarily arranges credit payments or installments for that period and in that amount. ( 2 ) that a specified down payment is required in connection with any extension of consumer credit unless the creditor usually and customarily arranges down payments in that amount. 15 U.C. code 1605- Determination of finance charge : ( a ) Finance charge defined Except as otherwise provided in this section, the amount of the finance charge in connection with any consumer credit transaction shall be determined as the sum of all charges, payable directly or indirectly by the person to whom the credit is extended, and imposed directly or indirectly by the creditor as an incident to the extension of credit. The finance charge does not include charges of a type payable in a comparable cash transaction. The finance charge shall not include fees and amounts imposed by third party closing agents ( including settlement agents, attorneys, and escrow and title companies ) if the creditor does not require the imposition of the charges or the services provided and does not retain the charges. Examples of charges which are included in the finance charge include any of the following types of charges which are applicable : ( 1 ) Interest, time price differential, and any amount payable under a point, discount, or other system or additional charges. ( 2 ) Service or carrying charge. ( 3 ) Loan fee, finders fee, or similar charge. ( 4 ) Fee for an investigation or credit report.

( b ) Life, accident, or health insurance premiums included in finance charge Charges or premiums for credit life, accident, or health insurance written in connection with any consumer credit transaction shall be included in the finance charges unless ( 1 ) the coverage of the debtor by the insurance is not a factor in the approval by the creditor of the extension of credit, and this fact is clearly disclosed in writing to the person applying for or obtaining the extension of credit ; and ( 2 ) in order to obtain the insurance in connection with the extension of credit, the person to whom the credit is extended must give specific affirmative written indication of his desire to do so after written disclosure to him of the cost thereof. ( c ) Property damage and liability insurance premiums included in finance charge Charges or premiums for insurance, written in connection with any consumer credit transaction, against loss of or damage to property or against liability arising out of the ownership or use of property, shall be included in the finance charge unless a clear and specific statement in writing is furnished by the creditor to the person to whom the credit is extended, setting forth the cost of the insurance if obtained from or through the creditor, and stating that the person to whom the credit is extended may choose the person through which the insurance is to be obtained. ( d ) Items exempted from computation of finance charge in all credit transactions If any of the following items is itemized and disclosed in accordance with the regulations of the Bureau in connection with any transaction, then the creditor need not include that item in the computation of the finance charge with respect to that transaction : ( 1 ) Fees and charges prescribed by law which actually are or will be paid to public officials for determining the existence of or for perfecting or releasing or satisfying any security related to the credit transaction. ( 2 ) The premium payable for any insurance in lieu of perfecting any security interest otherwise required by the creditor in connection with the transaction, if the premium does not exceed the fees and charges described in paragraph ( 1 ) which would otherwise be payable. ( 3 ) Any tax levied on security instruments or on documents evidencing indebtedness if the payment of such taxes is a precondition for recording the instrument securing the evidence of indebtedness. ( e ) Items exempted from computation of finance charge in extensions of credit secured by an interest in real property The following items, when charged in connection with any extension of credit secured by an interest in real property, shall not be included in the computation of the finance charge with respect to that transaction : ( 1 ) Fees or premiums for title examination, title insurance, or similar purposes.

( 5 ) Appraisal fees, including fees related to any pest infestation or flood hazard inspections conducted prior to closing. ( 6 ) Credit reports. ( f ) Tolerances for accuracy In connection with credit transactions not under an open end credit plan that are secured by real property or a dwelling, the disclosure of the finance charge and other disclosures affected by any finance charge ( 1 ) shall be treated as being accurate for purposes of this subchapter if the amount disclosed as the finance charge ( A ) does not vary from the actual finance charge by more than {$100.00} ; or ( B ) is greater than the amount required to be disclosed under this subchapter ; and ( 2 ) shall be treated as being accurate for purposes of section 1635 of this title if ( A ) except as provided in subparagraph ( B ), the amount disclosed as the finance charge does not vary from the actual finance charge by more than an amount equal to one-half of one percent of the total amount of credit extended; or ( B ) in the case of a transaction, other than a mortgage referred to in section 1602 ( aa ) [ 1 ] of this title, which ( i ) is a refinancing of the principal balance then due and any accrued and unpaid finance charges of a residential mortgage transaction as defined in section 1602 ( w ) 1 of this title, or is any subsequent refinancing of such a transaction ; and ( ii ) does not provide any new consolidation or new advance ; if the amount disclosed as the finance charge does not vary from the actual finance charge by more than an amount equal to one percent of the total amount of credit extended. This law states that it was not required for me to pay a down payment to obtain the car. You are not supposed to tell me what I am supposed to pay for a down payment to obtain the car. I can offer or tell you what I can put as a down payment. That is not what happened and that being that the law was not followed, my consumer rights were violated, and you broke am Federal law. I am demanding the full refund of my down payment in the amount of {$6900.00}, and the remaining balance of the loan in the account of {$12000.00}, plus the {$5800.00} that I have paid in car notes for the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX.
