Consumer Narrative
We bought our XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX and purchased the vehicle through a loan with PNC Bank. We immediately filled out the automatic payment withdrawal form so that the monthly payments would be withdrawn automatically from our bank account. We continued to make this monthly payment for the reminder of the loan up until XX/XX/XXXX. When unknown to us, PNC did not automatically withdraw the last car payment in the amount of {$500.00}. We counted on their automatic system of payment to withdraw all the payments until the total repayment of the loan. We have recently learned that our credit score has been dramatically impacted due to this situation. PNC Bank did not protect our credit score. We went back to look at the final statements and notice that there was hardly any change from the second to last payment to the last one which is why it was nearly impossible to know that we had to make the final payment in person as opposed to all the other XXXX payments. Despite never missing a payment, this has now put us at a financial disadvantage to remain credit worthy. After learning of this we immediately made the final payment on XX/XX/XXXX, and now owe no more payments but out credit score has taken a dramatic hit. I think this is truly unfair. There should be bigger fonts and notice that the last payment needs to be made by the person as opposed to all other payments. All the bill stated was " Final Payment. Congratulations! This is your final auto loan payment. Your title will be transferred to you once your final payment processes. '' Any normal person sees this bill and entrust that the final payment will simply be withdrawn like all other payments within the lifespan on the loan.
