    In 2016 my wife leased a new Chevy Cruze from Cocoa Chevy. Sadly my wife passed away in August of 2017. I was advised as a co-signer that I was still liable for payments. No problem at all seeing as the lease payments were only 74 bucks a month (after the trade in my wife had used.) At the end of the lease, they sent me a reimbursement check for $68.84, not a massive amount but it all helps especially after my wife's passing. The problem was, they sent me a check made out to both of us. I explained that I had closed our joint account after she died but they absolutely refused to make out another check in my name only even AFTER I had twice written to them WITH a death certificate. They flatly refused. My bank will not allow me to deposit the money in both our names.

    I really cannot see the problem, both Health First and Wells Fargo mortgage reissued refund checks after I lost my wife. The actual leasing was simple, clear and I thought pretty good value and their customer service people were very friendly but their refund policies are ridiculous and frustrating. They owe me money and are being so awkward about it, I may take legal action. I cant afford it but they are NOT getting away with it. AND they have not returned the death certificate after I specifically asked for it back. Not happy.

    I leased my first Equinox in 2017 - GM made a offer for a early out 2nd lease. So I’m in my second lease 2019 and I get a bill from my 2017 lease saying I owe and I take it to the dealer. He mails in a $500 waiver. GM Financial is saying I still owe $250.00. I find this situation just classless. When I left the Richardson dealership all financial matters should have been resolved. I will no longer do business with GM and GM Financial or Richardson. Demand a lease and damage report before you allow them to sell you another lease.

    I returned my lease, a Buick Enclave, in early July. The car was cleaned, no excess wear and tear, and under mileage. This was my first lease, so imagine my surprise when I was charged a "disposition fee" of $495 and a late fee of $43.75. After speaking to their customer service, I was told I am contractually obligated and she told me where the small print was on my lease form. Stupid me thinking the leasing agent would have been TRANSPARENT and pointed this out upon signing. When signing for a car you literally have to sign and resign documents making sure you understand this or that, but a disposition fee was never discussed.

    We have purchased two GMC Yukons in the last three years in addition to this Buick lease but I can promise you that I will not return. I cannot trust this company. In addition, the customer service rep could not tell me what the late charge was for after "researching it." So apparently on top of ripping people off they also charge you for things they themselves don't understand. I've been driving GMCs for ten years, this is not how you treat loyal customers.

    I have leased cars through GM since 2002 and never had an experience like this. I turned in my Traverse in December, 2018. Everything was great on the vehicle and it was under mileage. I noticed several months later (April), that my credit report posted an outstanding balance of around $4,000 still on the account. I called GM Financial, and they assured me there was an internal error and it would get fixed. Fast forward to June, I receive a bill for over $4,000, stating that the vehicle had excessive wear and was over mileage. Arguing with them was useless, they say there’s nothing they can do. I call the dealership and they verify that the car was under mileage and no damage, someone made an error during the turn in process. The dealership then sent paperwork to GM Financial, proving the information they have on file is inaccurate and request they update their information. The dealership was told it would be taken care of.

    I have since filed not one but 2 credit disputes since they are still showing a balance owed on my account, which has now also prevented me from leasing another vehicle. Upon contacting them today (and waiting on hold for over 35 minutes), they tell me they will go ahead and fix the mileage (which was supposed to be done back in June), but they can’t fix the damage charge because they didn’t get enough information from the dealership. I call the dealership back and they wait on hold before finally getting through to someone and faxing over all of the documentation - again. Then the GM Financial rep tells him to call back in 48 hours. Clearly no one here wants to actually do their job.

    I also had to request they remove this from my credit report and they tell me they will send the request to management. So of course I know I will have to call again and wait on hold for God knows how long before I actually get someone on the line so I can ask them to finish the request I started back in June of this year. Their business practices are deceptive, their client services are a joke, they seem to be doing whatever they can to keep me from ever leasing a vehicle through GM Financial again.

    I can't even fathom how this unbelievably deceptive company is still in business, and don't wonder whatsoever why customers don't renew with them. Turn in a lease, find out that I owe a disposition fee, which I was PROMISED by the dealer that I would NOT owe, as I expressed that I lease for the simple luxury of trying many different brands of vehicle. Receive bill in the mail, attempt to contact them at the number listed on the bill to discuss this and what my options are, no answer. Great. Leave a voicemail at the generic male voiced recording FOUR times in a week. No response, maybe they accepted my extremely detailed message and understood what I was saying? Cool.

    Fast forward 2 weeks, I get a notice saying I'm in collections. Collections?! I call the number repeatedly, over, and over until finally someone answers. I get reminded that this is in my contract and I can take it up with the dealer. The dealer being Paramus Chevrolet, aka "customers for life," no wonder that's their slogan, people don't want to have to pay extra to turn in a vehicle with HALF OF THE PAID FOR MILES AND NO WEAR AND TEAR which they will make absurd amounts on, probably refer to it as a loaner vehicle because it's in such good shape. Dealer tells me no dice, better luck next time, you signed the contract, regardless of what your intent was to start and if your salesman didn't explain it correctly.

    Get another call a few days later. Admittedly not in a rush to pay this bill. It's absurd and inappropriate, borderline abusive. Lady is clear and concise, "Paramus Chevrolet has put you into collections and you pay it or it will affect your credit." Cool, I'm home tonight. I'll pay it. Well now guess what else, the GM Financial website no longer works for your account, so you can either use a check and mail it, or pay 10 dollars for them to process a debit card of checking account over the phone. What a scam. Every minute of my dealings with this awful company. I can't honestly believe that I was ever duped into believing that they were an honest group.

    I returned a lease as I was being offered a great deal in a 2019 GMC Terrain. I was informed due to being a continued loyal GM purchaser that my fees “origination fees $495 & wear and tear under $500 is waived. I traded in my ** Lacrosse with 23,000 miles less than allowed and in perfect condition. 110 days later I received a phone call demanding payment on my lease return for 804 dollars. My dealer started a 3 way conference call & GM apologized for the error. I was then informed that they will correct the hit on my credit. I never knew any of this until that day the dealer called. GM ruined my credit which was in the 800 and now negatively affected a perfect credit score claiming I was late on a payment I never received an Invoice for. Had I received an invoice I would have been all over this matter as I worked 40 years to keep a great credit score.

    GM apologized and claimed that they will repair the hit to my credit score. Yet they have done nothing. I filed a complaint with Experian that investigated & informed me that the negative remains. The Robocalls continued and I returned the call each time. Now being informed I owed $542 dollars and not $804! I will never acquire another GM product again including my friends & Family. Never receiving an invoice and 110 days later a phone call from GM demanding payment. When the dealer advised them that this is incorrect I was informed that this will be handled and apologies. It is the worst transaction I’ve ever encountered and being a loyal GM customer means absolutely nothing. No one handles the matter with my credit score hit and I ended up having to pay $542 dollars still. I don’t know why as my dealer told them that this transaction needed to be corrected to zero balance due to my continued loyalty to GM.

    They don’t care and bounce you around and continued the Robocalls. You can’t talk to a Robocall and then the in inconvenience of waiting to speak to a representative who don’t and can’t help you! I’m so disappointed and we have family that will never purchase a GM product due to the continued harassment and lack of care! It was all lies that they told me claiming that this matter will be handled efficiently. I received an email from Shanai ** /GM Lease end apologizing for the credit hit negative and that this would be resolved. It had tint been resolved and last week I ended paying $542 dollars anyway. I have no idea why! I just wanted the harassment to stop with Robocalls. I guess my dealer who explained to them that fees are all waived and info was faxed meant nothing! Do not go into a new lease!

    General Motors does not send an invoice and you will receive a phone call 110 days later like I did demanding payment. My dealer did everything to resolve and GM promised that this would be taken care of. None of it was! Being a Loyal GM Customer meant nothing. I can’t wait to rid the new lease I no longer enjoy due to this error made by GM. I’m no longer going to trust anything they say. Robocall harassment causing me intense stress. Fighting cancer and health conditions enduring horrible service and lies. The stress alone made my Co duty in worse due to their continued harassment and different promises each time. None was resolved! I still paid and GM ruined my perfect credit score which they promised to fix and didn’t. Lidia

    Updated on 08/06/2019: A week ago our drama began with GM Financial when we inquired about when our title would be released. We waited another week for the magical day which was supposed to be August 5, for the title to be released. After calling yesterday, I learn, "Oh no we only send the paperwork to the 3rd party vendor & they release it". So I called the vendor. They tell me today they just got the paperwork from GM Financial this morning, and it would be done sometime today but DMV doesn’t always confirm and approve the titles until the next day. Again the policy for title release from honest paying customers has to change. Tomorrow will be 18 days we have waited for the title release.

    Original review: We paid off our vehicle in good faith July 15. The check has cleared but we have to wait 15 days for our title to be released because of other people who have cancelled checks or whatever excuse they want to give. The bank has our money and we are entitled to our title. This is a poor policy punishing good honest people. We will be sure to never finance through GM Financial again.

    I've returned my lease. I do not yet have a final statement, but am getting daily harassing robocalls asking me to call them. The robocaller is form a company called something like Americredit, doing business as [unintelligible]. I assume it was spam so did not call for quite a while. I finally did to see who it was, and it turns out it's GM Financial. They were unable to help me, but promised a statement within a few days, but were unable to explain why harassing phone calls started BEFORE they even sent a final statement. That statement still has not arrived. It's been 10 days. Their customer service is THE WORST!

    They've also deleted my online account so I have no access to my account history. I will NEVER buy or lease a GM car again. For what it's worth, this whole experience started with a car dealer (CARR Chevy in Beaverton, OR) made a mistake on the original paperwork, asked me to come back in to resign, and then did not disclose the extent of the change. I of course read through the lease documentation and found the mistake. It was to cost me another $500. That they did not disclose this speaks volumes. I refused to pay the extra $500 and they eventually took care of it. Again, I will NEVER again have a GM car.

    I have been a loyal GM lease customer since 2012 and have never once missed a payment. I recently (last year) put my payments on auto-pay to make it easier on myself. A few weeks ago, I got an alert from my credit monitoring service stating that my credit score had fallen and that there was some suspicious activity. After looking into it, I discovered that GM Financial canceled my auto pay in April of this year without telling me. I received no emails, no calls, NOTHING. I did not find out I was behind TWO PAYMENTS until I was notified through credit monitoring. My credit dropped EIGHTY POINTS. I called customer service to see what happened and the person stated that they called me several times and that it was "documented" that they left me messages and even told me what number they would have called from.

    I triple checked my phone and received not one phone call from them, no emails, nothing. The customer service woman on the phone was very rude and stated that if they helped everyone who claimed they didn't know they missed payments, they would be helping everyone they called, insinuating I was making all of this up. She kept putting the blame on me and told there was nothing they could do. Luckily, my lease is up next month and I will never lease with them again.

They swore My lease was done and I was good to go. Now my credit has a late payment thanks to the fine customer service representatives with no training or skills to make things right.

    After talking to a manager and paying it she said they would remove it from my credit and apologized. She saw the notes where I was telling them I had another payment. Guess what is on my credit still four months later?? GMC late payment! Run. Don't ever use them. My complaint is the tip of the iceberg. There are thousands with horrible experiences. This will be my last Escalade (which I love) because I refuse to ever finance through this horrible company.

    My wife and I leased a Chevy trax in 2017 with a term of 39 months and we've been paying on time. In the beginning we were doing autopay and later we had to cancel it and start making payment manually. The problems started when we saw different amounts owed in our physical bills that they send by mail, and the GM financial internet portal; for example the paper bill will say that we owe $170 and the online billing system will show a different number a $339 though we have no past dues or fees. So we call and ask their the customer service to send us a payment history statement to which they promised doing but they never do. So we end up with no answer as to why these things happen. Also the online platform lacks the total amount we owe on the lease and the interest rate and other crucial information. It only tells you how much you owe for the month and how to pay.

    The second type of problems we encountered was for example when we are making extra payments to apply to our excise tax for the year they will instead apply those payment toward the bill even with many requests on the phone to do so, And lastly I open my credit report and find that they raised our outstanding balance by $170 for no reason which damaged our credit. We never missed a payment for this type of things to happen. I'm gonna call them Monday and see if they have an explanation or else I'm reporting these incidents to the CFPB and any corresponding credit bureaus. And to top it off they completely locked the online portal on us so we can't make any more payments online. We have receipts to prove it. Unprofessional business.

    I have been waiting for over 30 days for GM Financial to update my credit reports to reflect my auto lease has been paid in full, and the account has been closed. I have sent 2 written letters that this be done, but GM Financial has chosen to completely ignore them. I always paid ahead of time, and I was never late. Note: GM Financial is the only company which has not updated their trade line on my credit reports. An out-of-date trade line is an inaccurate trade line on a credit report. Obviously, GM Financial did not appreciate my business. Based on the circumstances, it appears I will have to file suit against GM Financial for monetary damages and injunctive relief.

We did not hear or receive any information from GM Financial regarding the turn in of Volt turn neither email or US Mail.

    In the process of purchasing a vehicle this week a dealership ran my credit and my score went from a 760 to a 515 since April! The Dealer gave me a copy of my Equifax and showed me only one delinquent account that was a GM Financial lease. I called GM Financial immediately to correct the issue and make payment of an over mileage term. The person answering the phone said she couldn't give me any info or allow payment because the account is now in Mitigation.

    This outrageous action of GM Financial not contacting me as they had in the past for YEARS has damaged my credit report and consumer purchasing options. The way GM Financial reports the delinquency puts your account in a litigation process which will totally destroy your score across the board for YEARS. Even after you pay it up in full you're screwed.

    I took my 2017 Chevy Cruze, which had three months left on its lease, back to the dealership in March to have someone look over the vehicle and answer some questions about the lease-end process. I had no intention of buying a new vehicle, in fact, I was planning to let the lease run out and switch to a different brand - most likely a Subaru. But the salesperson was very convincing and told me I would save a lot of money by sticking with a Chevy. When I asked about wear & tear, he said Chevy offered a $500 rebate to assist with any damage considered excessive and after a visual inspection he said the car was in excellent condition and that there was no way I had damage amounting to more than $500 and would not owe anything on the vehicle. They were running a special and offering several incentives on the Chevy Equinox, so I ended up making a deal that day and left in a new vehicle.

    A few weeks later, I went onto my GM Financial account to set up auto payments on my new Equinox, only to find I had a bill for more than $1,000 on my prior lease. I called GM Financial, got the run-around and was told the bill was for excessive wear and tear. I nearly cried. The customer service rep told me that the salesperson, named CJ, at Day Chevrolet in Pittsburgh, PA had lied to me and was not in any way trained to assess the damage and was only trying to get me to buy a new car, saying essentially, I was duped into leasing the Equinox. When I asked GM Financial to please send me a bill for the damage, they told me I had to log onto AutoVinLive and see the report for myself. The website wouldn't let me access the information and GM Financial offered no assistance and refused to send a hard copy to my home.

    Several days later I logged back into my account to find the amount owed had dropped to approximately $250. I called again for a bill but received nothing. Three weeks after that, I received a call from GM Financial informing me that I owed $545 dollars on my old lease. Again, no bill or statement of charges was provided and my old lease account is no longer accessible online. The customer service agent stated that she was able to access the inspection report and could see that, among other things, I was being charged $200 for a missing key fob, which I returned to the dealership the day after I had traded in my old car for the Equinox. The representative offered no assistance in helping get to the bottom of the missing key, nor would she provide me with any information about the charges on my account, only advising me to go online and see them for myself.

    There is a lot to unwrap here. Not only am I disgusted with the level of customer service provided by GM Financial, but I am also dissatisfied with GM Motor Company, Day Chevrolet, and Autovin (which handles lease-end inspections). I will never, NEVER buy a GM vehicle again and wish I could get out of my current lease. It makes me sick to think I am sending money to a company that treats customers like this. All I asked for was a BILL.

    Alexis ID# **. Erica ID# **. I dropped off my lease at lease end on March 12-2019. It is now June 04-2019 and I still have not received my final bill. I called many times to request the bill every month in between. The statement they all said was "Your bill will be sent 60 to 90 days after the lease as been returned." On May 17th, GM Financial reported a LATE PAYMENT on my account and sent it to the credit bureaus. My credit score dropped 150+ points. THEY STILL HAVE NOT SENT THE FINAL BILL.

    I think this is how they can tack on extra charges at the end and have you pay them off quickly without disputes. Over the phone, they stated there will some charges on top of the lease end fee. I was okay with the lease end fee. But they're charging for "wear and tear" items that should not be charged. They should have it inspected at the time of return with the leasee present. They probably falsify items to drive revenue. I called to have them correct this, but they're dismissive and rude on the phone. I've also filed 2 complaints to their complaint system and still have not received a response. It's been over 2 weeks.

    I received a bill at the end of my lease, long after I had turned in the car, saying that I owed a $395 disposition fee (I've leased with them before and never had to pay that), and $85 for excess wear and tear. There was no details about what this wear and tear was, but I had taken photos all the way around the car in the parking spot where I left it when I returned it to GM. So, I called them to complain, and the agent I spoke to was dismissive, rude and sarcastic. So I called a second time a few days later and the tune was the same.

    "The fee was on your contract, no one HAS to call it out specifically to you when you sign up, it's your job to carefully read the contract." So, they're basically saying, "I understand, you didn't read carefully enough to catch that extra fee we tacked on, so that's your fault, and now we've got you." They deny the fact that I have never had to pay this fee before, which is incorrect.

    The excess wear they said was from a 6" scratch on one of my wheels. I offered proof that at the time of drop off there was no 6" long scratch. They said they don't accept photos, because they can't prove that the car in the photo is mine. I asked what evidence they had from their third party inspector. They said it's a photo. I asked how they could tell that THAT person's photo was my car. He said they took a photo of the VIN. I said that I too had taken a photo of the vin, time stamped just minutes away from the photo of the wheel, and that I guarantee that their agent didn't have a photo of the vin next to the photo of the wheel, because it's not physically possible. So, their picture can just as easily be a photo of someone else's wheel.

    They said, "Well, unless you have documentation that the wheel was repaired..." I said, "What are you talking about, the wheel was not repaired because in my possession it wasn't damaged". "Well, you'll have to provide documentation that it wasn't damaged." I asked how I could possibly know in advance of dropping off my lease that I'd need documentation that the left rear wheel was not damaged? He had no answer. I told him, if you proceed saying that I owe you this $395 disposition fee and the $85 for the made up wheel scratch, then General Motors loses my business forever, and I will warn away anyone else who asks my advice. They said that I still owe that fee, so now GM will never see another dime of my money.

    I had a lease on a vehicle for 39 months. At the end of the 39 months, I planned to purchase the vehicle, but was awaiting a back pay sum that I was going to use in conjunction with a loan thru my credit union, and inquired about extending the lease. They informed me that I could extend the lease up to 6 months, in 2 month intervals. I filled out the extension paperwork and THOUGHT I was set. Every 2-3 weeks, I would receive phone calls asking what my intentions were with the vehicle and they would have no documentation of the extension. Then, they would have the first extension, but not the 2nd and I was even into my third extension and they didn't have my second extension paperwork! By the time I was near the end of the third extension, I had finally received my back pay and went about setting up the purchase.

    I should of known, with the nightmare of lease extensions (not to mention my automatic payments during the lease mysteriously stopping), that I was asking for trouble but I was set on buying the vehicle. NOTHING BUT FRUSTRATION from that point on. I sent the check, with the info they asked me to provide on the memo. After 2 weeks of not hearing anything or receiving the title in the mail, I called. They had no information regarding the purchase of the vehicle! They had me contact my credit union to find out the status of the check! I called GM Financial back to inform them that the check had been cashed BY THEM and would like my title. They wanted me to call my credit union back again! This time, to have them fax a copy of the front and back of the cashed check! My credit union faxed it to 2 different fax numbers on 2 different days. Amazingly they never received it ANY of the 4 times!

    I finally ended up having my credit union email me the scanned check so I could forward it to an email address GM Financial provided and was told I would have to wait almost a week for them "to investigate". I wait 6 days and they forwarded my call to their title department and they couldn't do anything, even though the account shows paid in full, because GM Financial hadn't given them any instructions! The title operator gave me a specific number to call and... wouldn't you know it, after going thru all of the automated jargon, "due to unforeseen circumstances, we are not open at this time, please call back at a later time".

    I called the original GM Financial number and explained what was now going on. I get put on a 20 minute hold and when she comes back, tells me that the reason they didn't provide instructions was because I didn't provide that info with the check! Apparently, I needed to provide the Odometer reading and sign it. They have had that information from the past ** signed lease extensions, the last of which I had sent in about a week prior to the check! I'm told that once I receive the form in my email, to print it, sign it, scan it and email it back and call back next Wednesday or Thursday, more delay!

    She snidely says that if I want it any faster, I could provide them my FEDEX account number and I could have it sent overnight to me and then overnight it back. I was so infuriated at this point, that I didn't even think about the fact it wouldn't change anything except delay even longer, because the email to me and from me would be an hour, not 1 day here and 1 additional day back! So, needless to say, here I am, 4 weeks into something that should have taken a week, week and a half tops and still no title and more than likely when I call "next Wednesday or Thursday", there will be some new step added.

    I will never use GM Financial for anything again, and I would never suggest or allow any relatives, friends, acquaintances to do so either. I could of made this even more detailed (every phone call was a chore) but I have wasted enough time and energy on this whole debacle as is. I tried rating a 0 Star, but it wouldn't let me, that's the only reason it's 1 star.

    GM has a new take on customer service. It's the "NO SERVICE" approach! Instead of assisting their customers they ignore them. I have tried for almost a year to have a supervisor call me to discuss an error on the part of their bill pay system and have sent numerous emails to the vice president(s) of many different departments (Cheryl **, Ariel **, Darla **, and Kirk **) begging them to talk with me and they just simply don't reply. Additionally, all low level employees who do answer calls are some of the rudest and most unprofessional representatives I have encountered. I guess I can't blame them if the company policy is to provide as little service as possible.

    It's sad that we have come to a day where corporations can hide behind technology, don't stand behind their products nor the failed systems they have put in to place and feel they owe no respect or resolution with their customers. I have paid my bill on or before the 7th of every month and yet one time Western Union (the company GM chose to work with to accept payments from their customers) didn't apply my payment. Now, even though I continue making payments, GM has charged me almost $200 in late fees, reported me numerous times to against my credit. I simply don't understand how they can claim an error on their and/or Western Union's part is held against me and my credit. I would NEVER even consider buying GM again! Not necessarily because of the performance of their vehicles but certainly I would not do business with a company that feels no accountability, respect, gratitude or kindness towards their customers.

    I purchased a brand new vehicle and have been a GM Financial customer for the past 7 years and the first 6 were great. The last year has been impossible in dealing with them. I became unemployed in June of 2018. I struggled to stay up on my automotive loan with them but always managed to make my payment even if it was a month or 2 late. In February of 2019 my loan matured but I still owed money on it due to past due late payments and the deferments that I had used. GM Financial told me that once the past due payments up until February were paid, I would be able to do a rescheduling for the remaining payments... That is where the trouble all started with them. I called in mid March of 2018 to start the rescheduling process for the remaining balance of the loan. The gentleman I spoke with walked me through the process very easily and told me what I needed to know and do.

    He mentioned that I would be receiving an email within a few days to complete the process... something that he didn't stress was vitally important to the process. And he mentioned that if I didn't get it to be back in contact with them. I asked him what else I needed to do and he said just make your payment which will be due in May and you will be fine. Flash forward now to Friday, April 26th. I came out from work and found out that my truck was gone. I immediately called GM Financial to ask them if they had any information from them on it. They informed me that they has come and repossessed the truck. The information that they gave me was because they said they had emailed me the final paperwork on the rescheduling that I was supposed to fill out and send back to them to complete setting it up... something that was never explained to me that I needed to do.

    The rep that I spoke with about my rescheduling had never mentioned this to me during our conversation... In fact he made it sound like that I had done everything I had needed to do to complete it. As this was after 5:30 on a Friday, of course there was no one I could speak within their recovery department, GM Financial's customer service gave me their direct phone number to the department and said they will be in on Saturday from 9-1 Central time so I figured I will speak with tomorrow. Of course I was misinformed (which isn't the first time this has happened with GM Financial at all), they were not in on Saturday so I went the whole weekend without being able to speak with anyone about all of this.

    So on Monday April 29TH, I finally got to speak with their recovery department. Right off the bat I asked to speak with a supervisor. I was placed on hold for about 10 minutes when someone picked up that wasn't a supervisor, so I was placed on hold again. I waited a few minutes and the next person that picked up wasn't a supervisor either. Finally when I got to speak with one, she was listening in on the conversation that I was having with the third representative. I explained to her that in no time during the process of setting up the rescheduling was I told that I needed to complete paperwork and fill it out to finish the process. She said well you should have read the email we sent you. Well guess what? There was no email from GM Financial...

    I checked all my emails all the way back to the beginning of March in all my folders and not a single email was in any of them. Which then she turned the conversation on me saying how it was my responsibility to get in contact with them since I didn't receive an email from them. I responded with, "Had your people explained the urgency and seriousness of said email, I certainly would have." I also explained that their rep made it seem like everything was already taken care of and that I did not need to do anything else on my end. The GM Financial supervisor said that they have tried to contact me about it... Of course when they leave a message they don't tell you who they are, they just leave the caller's name and a phone number with no detail on any of the message (something I was told by them that they are not allowed to do in a collection call).

    In fact after looking at my phone records, the last time they contacted me was on April 19th (a full week before taking my vehicle). She also said that from what she saw on her end that GM Financial had done nothing wrong and made no mistakes and the only option for me was to pay off the total remaining balance on the loan plus the repossession, tow and storage fees. I tried to reason with them and said that they shouldn't have taken my vehicle since I was never told all the specifics of the email, that I never received, and that it wasn't my job to ensure that their people are doing their jobs correctly, that there should be another solution to this problem since they wrongfully repossessed my vehicle. I even made the comment to them that "so let me get this straight, I screw up on my end of the deal and you guys take my vehicle. You screw up on your end of the deal and you take my vehicle... doesn't seem real fair to me."

    She reiterated again that GM Financial had not made a mistake and that the only option was to make the recovery payment and that was it. I am so glad that after some cashing in on some favors, was able to come up with the money to save my vehicle. Never, never, never will I be doing business with GM Financial ever again and would recommend that to anyone that will listen. It is almost like they deliberately put me into a situation where they would be able to repossess my vehicle and feel like they cheated me out of my rescheduling agreement and more money in doing this.

We're 4 months into a 48 month relationship and already I feel unsatisfied and neglected that I probably would never purchase from GM again.

    My husband and I have a joint account that was a total loss back 9 months ago. I was told I was getting a refund back. After about 3 months of nothing I called and found out I owed something. Never received a bill. I called back after and they said I now didn't owe anything. Turns out I check my credit score and there was hit to my score for a late payment from GM. Never was I ever sent a bill. I called numerous times, no one ever has any answers they just keep transferring you to someone just as clueless as the person before. They can't even find our joint account under my social, it's only on my husband's but yet it's only my credit score that is affected.

    Now 9 months later I call yet again only for them to tell me they will send me a bill in the mail. No idea what it's for and/or why it's owed. I was told that I should have called the first time and said something about my credit score and the reason it's on there is because I didn't pay my bill. WELL OF COURSE!!! I didn't get BILL to PAY!!! I am furious with GM Financial. My credit score has taken a huge hit from it and they don't even care to help a customer that has had numerous vehicles leased through them! ! Our next vehicles we will stay clear of GM. They have no clue about what goes on with their customers and such poor customer service. How can you send something to a credit bureau when you can't even send a bill to the customer??!?!

    I leased a 2017 Sierra in April 2017 in CT. In June 2018 I moved to a new CT address. I called to ask what I needed to do to get the registration updated. The girl I spoke to that day told me she could update it on my account. When I pointed out that didn’t count as updating the registration she told me I had to wait until the renewal was due because it didn’t matter as long as I didn't move to a different state. I recently moved to Rhode Island and contact them again on March 29 to ask what I needed to get to get my registration transferred to Rhode Island and that my CT registration is expiring 4/20/2019. I was told to send a fax and include my name, VIN and insurance info and say I moved to R.I. I got a call from a Miya saying I needed to be more specific on the fax, so I resent it with all the requirements listed on the R.I. DMV site.

    I called a couple of days later to ask if they sent out what I needed and was told by a Necollette, it would take 24-48 hours. I waited three more days and contacted them again, this time I was told someone tried to contact me because it wasn’t legible. No one tried to contact me after the second time I sent it. This guy’s name was Luz. He told me Miya tried to contact me. I said I already spoke to her and sent it again. So I faxed it AGAIN. I called again and spoke to a girl who did verify they received it but I didn’t include the contact info to the R.I. DMV. So I faxed ANOTHER copy with the DMVs phone number and fax number. She told me to check back Thursday.

    I used the online chat today, 4/18, and spoke to a TK who said my documents were mailed. I asked if they were overnighted, he said no they were sent regular mail today. My registration expires THIS Saturday. I can’t get a VIN check until I have a copy of the title. I can’t get it registered without a VIN check or the rest of the documents, so as of Saturday I will not have a legal vehicle to drive. NEVER USING GM FINANCIAL AGAIN.

    I recently turned in a 2016 Chevy Volt at Lease end. The disposition fee on the lease contract says, "Unless this fee is waived under item 23 (t)". Item 23 (t) reads, "Disposition Fee Waiver: The item 4A Disposition Fee will be waived if you purchase or lease a new General Motors vehicle when this lease ends." I was charged a disposition fee of $395 + $34.95 tax on the fee at end of lease of my former 2016 Chevy Volt. I replaced my 2016 Chevy Volt with a 2019 Chevy Volt. I purchased this new Volt 36 days prior to my lease end because Volts are now difficult to find. GM Financial told me that it must have been bought or purchased within ten days of lease end. This clearly is against the spirit of the policy as my replacement vehicle was a GM vehicle. The contract did not specify "within ten days". The purpose of the fee is to encourage the consumer to continue buying GM products. I did. I will be taking GM Financial to small claims court.

    We have been GM Financial customers for many years and have an A1 Excellent credit rating in the 800s. That was until the last few months when GM Financial ruined our rating! We turned in our lease in November and leased another GM vehicle at the same time. They told us to check back with them in 3-4 weeks to see when the final lease end invoice would be ready. I called 3 weeks later in December and was told they are behind in the lease end department and to call back in January. I called in January 2 times and still nothing... I called back again in February with the same response... the lease end final invoice was still not calculated and every person I spoke to kept assuring me it would be another week or two. In the meantime, in February, they then proceeded to report me to all 3 credit bureaus for missed payments and delinquent accounts! How can we pay an invoice that has not even been generated yet!

    I called GM Financial and my dealership manager, they kept apologizing and stating they are having issues with their lease-end billing department and that they would have the delinquent account notices removed. March 1st and their billing department reported me AGAIN to all 3 bureaus and STILL NO FINAL INVOICE from GM! This has gone on every few days calling and emailing back and forth with managers, department employees, etc, all telling me something different. At the end of March I get the Invoice for the first time and lo and behold it is WRONG! They overcharged me for Sales tax that was already paid up front. (No breakdown of what the total is broken down into, so I have no idea what was tax and what was payments, mileage overage, nothing).

    I call them and now I have to wait another 2 weeks into April to get a corrected total (in letter form, not invoice form again with no breakdown). And AGAIN on April 5th they reported me to all 3 credit bureaus for delinquent account AGAIN! They have caused my credit score to drop from the low 800s to the mid 600s and I am furious! I called AGAIN to find out why when they said they were taking OFF the delinquent account notices... that they keep reporting them over and over again Every Month! Their answer... "Sorry our system does it automatically till your account is paid and closed." I will NEVER buy a GM Car again just on PRINCIPAL! DO NOT USE GM FINANCIAL! EVER!

I tried to contact support about it and they denied that I had ever tried to set up autopay before the incident.

Four calls later no bill. Last call they apologized and said they would "expedite" it to me and nothing. If I could give a zero, I would. Very disappointed and frustrated. The reason I need the bill, as explained to them is because on my way to turn in my lease for the new lease, I was hit from behind. Therefore, the money that I paid was due to the damage of an accident (no fault of mine). I NEED the bill to forward to the other driver's insurance to get reimbursed.

    I leased a Cadillac ATS 3 years ago, This car has been a nightmare from the beginning. We had taken the car into the dealership multiple times for a defective air conditioner which would blow 100+ Degrees on the driver's side and 60 Degrees on the passenger side. Well in 3 years Boulevard Cadillac, Long Beach, Ca. was never able to fix, We were told that they could not find the problem, to the point of the sales manager saying that he would get us out of the vehicle (Lemon Law). Well as you can guess that never happened! So after 3 years of dealing with a defective air conditioner and Boulevard Cadillac failure to fix, we turned the car in. As you all know the dealership tried and tried to get us to lease another vehicle from them. (I Think Not).

    So a month after turning the car in we get a final bill. Over $1000.00 Dollars, $400.00+ for wear and tear, Car only had 20,000 miles on a 36,000-mile allotment. Car looked brand new, but no problem with this charge (I was aware), (No Lie). Now here is the kicker, $595.00 dollars for a disposition fee, (What?) So in reaching out to GMF, they informed me that if I did not purchase a vehicle or lease another GM Vehicle I would be charged the 595.00 dollars disposition charge per the contract I signed, (Shame on Me) for not taking the dang contract home and reading it for a week and have my attorney read it as well, before signing.

    Why would the financial officer not disclose this in the signing of the contract in the financial office. (Absolute No Disclosure). The only reason that comes to my mind is (Fraud) they know that you would never agree to this, so they have a ploy of intentional perversion of truth in order to induce another to part with something of value or to surrender a legal right. So after calling GM Financial to inquire about this, they hardly wanted to talk to me (Well you signed the contact, You should of read it.) We all know that No one reads that contract that goes on for a mile. (Shame on Us). I learn my lesson, I will never buy another GM Vehicle again or deal with GM Financial again (Never).

    So buyer beware of Boulevard Cadillac Long Beach, Ca. and GM Financial. They practice FRAUD for failure to require their financial management teams to follow a mandatory disclosure of ALL and I repeat ALL FEEs when purchasing or leasing a vehicle. We all know that these two companies will say in the end "You Signed the Contract" "You Should of read it", I get that, but why the deceit? Ask yourself, should I be concerned? P.S. I paid my final bill of over $1000.00 Dollars and will never again buy a GM product! And to show them that there is always other options I went out and bought my Wife a New HONDA, which by the way blow my ATS Cadillac away!

    Take that GM Financial and Boulevard Cadillac Long Beach. Maybe this might help future buyers of GM products to think twice before buying a GM product. GM does not have your best interest in mind, only how much money they can take from you and me and put into their corporate pockets! Buyers Beware!!! But the saddest thing is I am an American and would of loved to buy an American Product. Is GM the enemy. I think so, what do you think? (Shame on Them).

    Very disappointed for the following reasons: 1) My vehicle was repossessed the weekend after I had tried to contact them to let them know I was to receive money and would be catching up on two months I'd fallen behind. Not that any business cares that my child needed surgery on a broken arm and I had a high deductible because I don't get welfare. During these couple of days (Thursday and Friday) that I'd been calling, they happened to be out of reach due to some maintenance/updating on their systems. That following Sunday, my vehicle was taken. I was able to get it back early that week because, as I had attempted to inform them, I had money coming to me. I obviously ended up paying so much more than I'd had to.

    2.) So my payments are due every first day of each month. I'm trying to pay two days ahead now, but they disabled me from paying online. I called, being that it's a Saturday today and they are, very inconveniently, closed until Monday, which will be my actual due date. Except now I have to take the time to call during my lunch time and since I only have 30 minutes, who knows if I'll get through or be able to take care of the payment and resolve that I'm not able to pay online.

I heard several different stories about what happened to my money, from it being applied to the wrong account, to it being sent to the wrong address. However, none of this should have affected me in the first place because I no longer had this vehicle. They continued to blame the dealership, not take responsibility and would not refund me for 3 months.

On 1/23/19 the dealership sent a full payment check with all needed information attached to the check to GM Financial. GM Financial cashed the check. The vehicle I turned in was inspected on 2/11/19 and sold the next day. It is now 3/19/19 and GM Financial shows me past due on the full amount. I called them and they said they have no record of the payment that the dealer probably put the wrong account number or didn't put any account number on the check. I told them they attached all the information to the check. I was basically told that they usually remove any attachments and dispose of them and only handle the checks.

    First I asked them why they cashed a check that they didn't know what account it's for. They said they always do and it goes into an account and if there's a dispute they track it down and remove it from this account. Second I asked them if it was normal for their employees to be lazy and not write the needed information from attachments onto the check if missing. They basically blew off the question. I have had my dealership send a copy of the check and needed information to them. I am still waiting for them to correct this. I never had this problem with Ford or anyone else I leased thru other than GM. And going back to the inspection, I was told it can take up to 90 days to find anything out about the inspection.

Moving was a complete nightmare with this lease. Couldn’t seem to update my address despite multiple notifications online, in writing, and over the phone. As another reviewer mentioned, it took the better part of a year to get the limited power of attorney to change the car’s registration.

    I wrote emails that I needed assistance, made several phone calls, sat on hold for an hour every time. People promised me to “check on what was going on and call,” but despite having 4 people promise that, no one ever folllowed through. Fortunately the DMV employees were actually really helpful, otherwise it never would have ended. GMF said they would let me know when they received the new registration. They never did. So I had no copy, even though I had the car and was driving it. It’s sad when you have worse customer service than the DMV! But as several people mentioned, it’s the condescending attitude that is intolerable. They are totally incompetent and not conscientious, but I’M the idiot. Definitely won’t use them again.

Never once was there one and the last was on a truck that the lease was already turned back in weeks earlier and they were called and advised. The first 2 late payments were false and took me almost 2 years for them to remove from my credit report after literally hundreds of calls, hours, faxes, etc. I will be reporting them as they continue to break FCRA guidelines regularly. Not to mention they are some of the most rude and pompous people when you have to talk to them on the phone. I will say they’re all very educated on how to pass the buck, lie and make excuses for everything they don’t do.

    I leased a Chevy Bolt. GREAT car, absolutely love it. I signed up for automatic payments. GM Financial had the amount and gave me a discount for signing up for automatic payments, so I took it. Later I am being called DAILY because they gave me too big a discount. Now, I discover that my automatic payment has been discontinued, magically. As such I am now actually LATE in a payment that was supposed to be automatic.

    There is no information as to why. It just happened. Their calls are horribly bad. Bad timing, no indication of who is calling (in the age of robo-callers this is pretty much essential), no indication of who called in the messages left (just call this number - it's difficult enough to sift through sales calls without poor practices like this). In my mind they are spam and nothing more until they identify themselves.

    I had a lease end in November 2018 at which time I leased a new GM vehicle. I noticed after a month that the old vehicle was still appearing on my online GM financial account, so I called to ask about it. They assured me the amount was not owed and that the lease was closed but that it took some time to catch up. Now, in February 2019, I receive a credit alert that I have a 30 day past due vehicle payment for a car I turned in in November (the overdue payment was for the month of January... No sense). This far, GM has failed to properly resolve the issue and my credit score has dropped by 40 points (I was near perfect). My dealership has stated GM Financial is notorious for "one side does not communicate with the other" and mistakes like this happen very often. It is extremely frustrating and a very poor way to operate a business. Credit reporting cannot be undone by GM directly.

    I leased a 2016 Malibu. When I got close to the end of my lease, January 2019, I was bombarded with GM promotions to purchase or lease a new car. One was they would pay off four payments up to $2500.00. In October I took advantage of this offer and bought a new car with 2 payments left on my lease. In January I received a call from GM Financial that I owed them $475.00 for two missed payments and $146.00 for wear and tear on the lease car. Also when asked, they said it had been reported to the credit bureau. I was told they would waiver the $146.00 charge and would remove the negative report from the credit bureau.
    The dealership had received the $475.00 check from GM and they overnighted it to GM financial. My credit score dropped from 820 when I purchased the new car to 640. Three weeks later I called to check the status and absolutely nothing had be done. The $146.00 had not been waived and nothing had been done with the credit bureau. Her answer to my questions was "I don't know why nothing has been done" and she would try to fix it. I told her I didn't trust that she would or could because the last two people I had talked to had not done it.

    After being on hold for a combined 30 minutes she transferred me to someone in the end of lease department. She promised she would fix the situation and waive the $146.00 and remove the damaging report to the credit bureaus. As of this review I still don't know if the problem has been solved as I have not heard from her and there is no way to call her. I also called GM about the problem and they said since that promotion was no longer in effect they didn't have any information. When I asked to speak to someone who might be able to help I was put on hold for a long time and then I got the dial tone after they hung up on me.

    I have had nothing but nightmare issues with GM Financial. No one seems to know how to answer questions, they charge you fees that clearly do not apply to your situation, there seems to be no known policy on certain criteria, and I have never been placed on hold so many times in my life. These aren't just a couple minutes here and there, these are 10 to 15 minute holds every single time! I bought my truck after lease end and was on the phone with GM Financial the whole time I was at my Credit Union getting financing. They gave me the total dollar amount to send and that was including the taxes to pay the state. THIS was 6 days before my lease expired and they said they would put a grace period on my account to give the check time to arrive. I called every other day and was told check still hadn't made it but grace period would be extended a few more days.

    Finally, 8 days after lease end they confirmed check was received. Turns out, my CU sent too much money so I received a refund check. Then I get a letter from the state that taxes weren't paid on the truck. Well I never received a bill of sale from GM Financial so I call them to get that info to pay taxes. TURNS OUT, my bill of sale is a completely different number than the buyout amount which was also different from what my CU was told to send them. 3 different purchase amounts! That's when the real nightmare began.

    I spent a week trying to get someone to figure out what the ** they did with my money and why they can't figure out where all these discrepancies are coming from. Finally, someone tracked down info that I was charged a docking fee of $395 which is only supposed to be charged if you turn in the leased vehicle, which was not the case since I bought the truck! They also charged me an additional monthly payment since my financing was late to arrive, even though two different people told me they would put a grace period on my account. The person I spoke with today tells me, there's no such thing as a grace period! I'm just so sick of this company and their complete lack of customer service, failure to maintain a standard operation procedure, and total ignorance when it comes to charging customers for things that should never be charged to them!

    I leased a 2017 GMC Terrain with GM Financial. Customer experience during the lease was okay as I could go to the website to make payments. Lease end is when it fell apart. Once you turn in the lease they don't tell you that you have to go online and stop automatic payments. I didn't know that and they took out the next month payment even when I didn't own the car because they were still computing my final bill based on when the car sold. When I called they said that the department that manages the website is separate from lease end so that's why no one told me that. Then my car was sold and I received my final bill in the mail on the day it was due!

    I called and they told me to make any payment within 7 days and I would not be delinquent. They said I would get an updated invoice after I made a payment. I asked if I could pay over the phone and they said yes but it was a $10 fee! I mailed in a partial payment and never got an acknowledgment. 30 days later they reported me delinquent to Experian. When I called they said the person who took my call didn't put any of that in the notes and there was nothing they could do, I would have to dispute with Experian.

    First of all, I will start by saying that I don't even think that GM Financial deserves the one star rating I gave, but I had no other option. I am extremely disappointed by the lack of professionalism that GM Financial has shown in the time that I have had to work with them as the financing company for my leased vehicle. When I moved to a different state for work, it was nothing but a huge headache in getting GM Financial to do their job so that my car registration could be processed in the new state. I registered my car in this new state in December of 2017. The Bureau of Motor Vehicles in this state sent several letters to GM Financial from March 2018- June 2018 requesting that they send the title for the vehicle over to them so that they could process my car registration.

    I was personally sent a letter by the Bureau of Motor Vehicles stating that they had reached out several times to GM Financial and that they had failed to respond. From that point on, I got nothing but the run around from GM Financial in terms of why this hadn't been done (mostly they put the blame on the car dealership). In July 2018 GM Financial told me that they sent the title over to the Bureau of Motor Vehicles, and it should be there the following day. I contacted the Bureau of Motor Vehicles and updated them on everything and they said they would be on the lookout for the title. And if I didn't hear anything from them I should assume they have what is needed. I hadn't heard anything for two months, and assumed the problem was resolved. In September 2018, I received another letter from the Bureau of Motor Vehicles stating that they still hadn't received the title and I had two weeks to turn in my plates.

    I won't go into the week by week breakdown of what happened after this because that involves 10 pages of documentation I have. However, I will say I was able to get a few extensions through the Bureau of Motor Vehicles so that my registration wouldn't be suspended. During this time, GM Financial was less than helpful, and didn't seem to have a sense of urgency in getting this problem resolved. I got different stories from everyone I spoke there. I was finally told on November 1, 2018 that on October 24, 2018 that GM Financial received the title for the vehicle from my previous state (why they didn't request it from there sooner is beyond me) and that they had to send it back because the title was not correct.

    They told me it would take 3-4 weeks to receive the updated title. I explained that I was on my 3rd extension for my registration by that point and it was about to run out and asked if they could have the title expedited given the situation. They said they couldn't do anything on their end and suggested I call my previous state to see if things could be processed sooner. When I called the DMV in my previous state they informed me that they had received an application on October 24th from the third party company that works on behalf of GM Financial to have the title corrected, but that it was rejected on October 31 because the application was not notarized.

    I immediately called GM Financial back and made them aware that this application was rejected, and was told they couldn’t do anything until they received the rejected paperwork back; which would take up to two weeks (not to mention the additional 3-4 weeks processing time in addition to that). I asked to speak with a supervisor, who didn’t seem as concerned that I was about to have my registration suspended. I was able to get a fourth and final extension through December until the title came through.

    However, I was asked by the supervisor at the Bureau of Motor Vehicles I was working with if I could have the supervisor I was working with at GM Financial send her an email to update her on my situation so that she could add it to my file to justify giving me so many extensions. When I asked the supervisor at GM Financial to do this she told me she wasn’t allowed to write emails or send anything in writing per their legal department! If you are telling the truth and doing what you are supposed to be doing then why should you worry about what’s in writing?!

    When all was said and done, the title was finally received and my registration was able to be processed on December 21, 2018...a year later! I am extremely disgusted by GM Financial and the way I was treated throughout this whole process. If I had missed a lease payment they would be hounding immediately wondering where their money was. However, it took over a year for them to provide me with what I needed to legally drive a car that I make all on time payments for.

    I had no control over this situation as GM Financial is the “owner” of the vehicle, yet I was the one getting the suspension letters. I WOULD NEVER recommend this company to anyone that has a choice. When this lease is up, I will not be leasing another car where GM Financial is the financing company. I think they need to re-evaluate what it means to be professional, and take some accountability when they don’t do their jobs. Customer care is certainly not their priority. I hope I can save someone from going through the same headache that I’ve had to.

    Don’t finance anything through them until they properly update their online system especially if you like taking care of your payments electronically. They won’t care if you’re a good customer who has never been late with payments (in fact few times even paid more than minimum payment), they will right away report to the credit bureaus when you make one mistake and because of their inefficient and confusing online system. I actually took care of that late payment right away after finding out they still remove it. The saddest part is I didn’t even find out from them but because I have a credit monitoring set up.

    The website and payment portal is unbelievably bad. You have to set your own start and end dates for payments, so you better know when the last payment is due. Never seen that on any other recurring payment I make. Won't let you set up future starting payments, so if you already paid for the current month, I guess you need to wait until next month to set it up.

    How they handle property taxes on leased vehicles is absurd. They pay the tax and then put it on your bill, which is great and the same as every company I have ever leased from but with GMC there is no notification. There is no copy of the tax invoice sent, it simply shows up one month (as a past due). I can't understand why they wouldn't let you know this is coming, or that it's arrived. If you choose paperless you will simply have an outstanding balance until you go online and notice it. I wonder if this is a shady retention technique so they can offer some partial relief at the end of the lease instead of writing a big check if you renew a lease with them.

    A glitch caused my monthly payment to be applied to the property tax and sent my account in arrears (they do give you 12 months to pay the property tax). If you are in arrears it for some reason cancels your recurring payment, so better catch the error quick or you'll be 2 months behind. It took 3 calls talking to 4 different reps to (possibly) get this worked out. Just about every large company has perfected their e-commerce by now and have user-friendly systems enabled, GM Financial is easily the worst I have dealt with.

    My son leased a 2018 Acadia through GM Financial. One week after taking possession he died of an epileptic seizure, leaving behind his 29-year-old wife, a 3-year-old daughter and 6-year-old son. The dealership took the vehicle back. He had driven it two times and it had 160 miles on it when it was returned. GM Financial is keeping his $3,300 down payment rather than returning it to his widow to help with funeral and other expenses. In my opinion not the type of company I would ever want to do business with. Incredibly callous. Had he driven the vehicle for several months I would understand, but he drove it twice. I think a widow with two small children could use the money more than a multi-million dollar company.

    I have had my current lease for close to two years now. Within the last year I have had it in to service 7 times. The first time was for a piece of molding that had come off on the top of the car. The next time was over the summer of 2018, the cord controlling my air condition broke, they couldn’t get it fixed for over a month because they didn’t have appointments open. The last 5 times have been since the end of September 2018. I had a problem with the engine power being reduced. The first two times they couldn’t pull a code to fix it. The third time they replaced the gas pedal and said If it acts up again they would need to rewire it. The very next day it happened again, they said they knew it would happen but couldn’t fix it correctly per GM protocol.

    At this time I said I was unhappy with the lease and wanted out. I was told it was too early and still owe too much on it ($3100). I’m sorry but for such a big dealership I feel $3100 is nothing. When I picked it up from being rewired my car windows and mirrors did not work. So now it sits in the shop AGAIN. I feel $3100 is cheaper then losing a customer, but I will now be looking for a new dealer if nothing is done.

    I've never in my life has such rude people that I've had to deal with concerning an auto loan, and I've had quite a few, but this is my first with GM. I paid my payments every month, but suddenly a repo truck shows up! I call them immediately to sort it out, to no avail... Payments are $360/mo, yet I had to pay nearly $1600, $500 of which were repo fees, that could've been allotted had they discussed it with me before he took it. They tell me I have no choice but to let them take it, and that they cannot work with me on anything until it is repossessed.

    Long story short, I pay the fees because I need the vehicle... Jump forward to the next month, the payment was due on Friday. Monday rolls around and I sincerely forgot. It dawned on me Tuesday, and I promptly paid it, yet a repo truck just rode by my house very slowly flashing a flashlight into my yard! It's still Tuesday night, so of course the payment is still showing as "Pending", but they're calling it "Four days past due", nevermind the fact that Sundays they are closed, so it's technically two days past. Either way, if they repossessed it for 2 days, they can keep it! I'm done with this company!

In 23 months I have not missed a payment and quite the opposite I have overpaid.

    I have been GM Financial, since December 2013. I never had any known issues with them, until the first time in October 2017. When I advised I could not make the monthly payment until the the 16th of the month, and was told that would fine and has been setup and documented on my account. Well, less than 30 days later it had been reported to the credit bureau that I was late on my payment. So I called GM immediately, to find out why this had been reported after I had made arrangements to pay past due a month on the 16th of that month?

    I was told by a supervisor that the payment needed to be posted on my account by the 15th of that month. I explained the rep failed to inform me on that, and that my credit shouldn't have been hit for a late payment. Especially, after GM agreed and accepted the payment and drafted from my bank account. I was told by supervisor they reported the information to the credit bureau accurately and they had the right to report it. Moving forward to recent, I paid my vehicle off in full on September 20, 2018 (exciting and huge accomplishment). Unfortunately not, I got concerned the title never was never mailed.

    I called GM, and was told I did not have enough to cover the payoff amount. I said what?? I got the payoff request off the website by me logging into my account. Brittany said there was no notes of a payoff request on their end. I said well I got the large sum about from them and that I didn't just send what I wanted. I then, spoke with sup whom was not helpful and just as rude as the rep was. The sup nor the Brittany could explain what additional amount was for and as to why I never received correspondence of still owing them. They could not justify why this was, except I didn't send enough and that I have until November 11 3018 to send payment, before more interest is added to the balance. This is not right, they did not reach out to from September to November 1st when I got wind of the additional balance. I will never finance with GM ever again. Rip off. Fraudulent and misleading.

    A good auto loan company is one that you don't have to think much about. GM Financial fits that bill. I am notified 5 days before my payment and emailed a thank you after my payment comes out. It could not be easier and more professional. I am reading about people that have had issues with GM. In most (if not all) cases, it sounds like the customer is complaining about themselves more than the company.

    GM runs customer credit when they get a request from one of their dealers. When the customer goes all over creation to different dealers he put everybody to work. They all want to get him a loan and GM gets multiple solicitations. Each deal is a different car with perhaps different rebates and cash down. They have to work every deal. It's not their fault the customer has bad credit or doesn't like the terms. Customers need to take responsibility for their own actions. They are almost always complicit in their problems. Stop blaming the company. The bigger problem is in the mirror.

    I leased a vehicle from GM and had issues so I went back and had that lease bought out and refinanced another one from GM. At this point the old lease should have been completely paid off and the new lease take place in payments. After the first month I had payments taken out for both leases. I contacted GM and was told they would shut the auto pay off on my old lease and it would take 30 days to process my refund. Although I was not happy I accepted this. However the second month had come around and this happened again not to mention I still did not receive the first refund yet the second had been taken out. I notified them of this again and was told it was an error and I would have to wait another 30 days for the second refund. Someone there did not do the job correctly after the first time and I should not be penalized having to wait another 30 days.

    So GM had taken double my money for 2 months and I could not do anything but wait. This is an unfair business practice and if I did not pay them for 2 months or told them to wait I would have to suffer repercussions They offered me no further explanation and no type of credits for me losing my money for 2 months and I want to note I provided them proof from my bank funds had been withdrawn on both instances. I feel they are not responsive to situations like this and all just follow a script to tell you what the procedure is. That procedure is not fair to a customer who has been loyal and on time with all of their payments. Someone should be able to find a way to override this and when I asked I was told they could not.

I am never going to lease a GM vehicle ever again. Terrible business practices and I will tell everyone that I can to not lease a GM car. ** pieces of **.

    Thanks for your vote!
