Consumer Narrative
Hello, I dont know how far the email will go or if I can get this resolved but I will try. I close mouth dont get fed. Ive reached out to so many people even corporate and I keep getting rear ended. It should be a crime to charge 181 % in interest on loans. Why is it legal in Tennessee? These loan sharks target people who are suffering rich or poor. My only working vehicle has a 181 % interest loan on it with TitleMax. They never told me the interest rate until after I signed the papers. They never tell me what has been applied to the loan until I go online to see. I paid {$2700.00} on a {$2100.00} loan and still owe {$2700.00}. Ive used TitleMax several times and never had this hard of time paying this off the loan until now. I am trying to get my XXXX in XXXX XXXX and homeschool my XXXX children, my income can not afford $ XXXX {$400.00} payments and only {$90.00} goes towards the loan. I have reached out to TitleMax general and district manager and none of them would return my calls. It took 3 weeks for them to return my call and they refuse to work out a payment plan so the interest dont keep accumulating. They told me I need {$650.00} to get current and only {$120.00} will go towards the loan the rest is interest. I called them on XX/XX/XXXX to forfeit the vehicle because I can no longer afford the payments. The general manager request that I drop the vehicle off at their office and take a XXXX home. I dont have XXXX money. I already paid the vehicle off and they want me to go out of my way to satisfy them. This should be banned in Tennessee. How can someone charge this much interest? The car is still in my driveway and I cant drive it because the tags are expired and no insurance because TitleMax will not come and get it and let me be done with them!!!!! I would love to keep my vehicle but they will not communicate with me and letting the interest on the loan get higher. Please help and send this email to someone who can help. Ive been in touch with the office since XX/XX/XXXX. I was current until XX/XX/XXXX. The General manager refuse to work with me on making monthly payments he said the District manager said he cant help me. I am on section 8 and my loan payments are more then my rent!!! My car started having problems and I can not afford to get them fixed because of their high interest rate and monthly payments. Im just trying to work this out but its obvious they dont want to nor have they attempted to get the car. Ive paid off over 10 loans with them and its sad that they couldnt work with me so I can keep the car. I am a single mother of XXXX whose just trying to make it and theyre making it impossible for me and Im sure others who are barely making it. There is no interest amount on the statements. I uploaded a statement from XXXX on another loan I had and it shows the interest. Thank you so much, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
