    I was speaking to this gal name Carol. The call was going good at first but then got impatient with me the first 2 minutes of the call. You would think the call center representative would be respectful. NOPE! NEVER heard of a call center have people with attitudes this bad. Thought they’d get fired, but the owner doesn’t seem to care.

    Carol isn’t the only one that I encountered a terrible attitude with, it's every time I get on the phone to talk to one of the representatives! Carol definitely caught my eye though. There was an automated number that called me so I answered. It gave me the option to speak to Carol so I did. Told her I was late on my payment for this month and she immediately said “You know you don't have to call every time to make a payment right?” Had to explain to her that the automated phone number called me and it gave me the option to speak with a representative. I don’t know what’s happening in their call center, but maybe they shouldn’t be working there if their attitudes are going to project on customers. I put a loan on my car in April. Starting to regret my decision, but eventually, this car is going to be paid off and I don’t ever have to deal with them again. Overall, my experience with them hasn’t been good.

    This company doesn't even deserve a 1 star review... Roughly 8 years ago I purchased a car for 18k with a monthly payment of $373.11... I have paid $400 a month religiously the entire time I've had my car and sometimes I paid more than that! In the last 3 years, I've been fighting Chevy over manufacturer defects in my 2016 chevy equinox. My engine has blown twice now and no mechanic will touch it at this point and chevy won't do anything to take responsibility even though they were just sued for hundreds of millions of dollars for the exact issue I've always had with my car... I called to see what my payoff was considering that I've been making $400+ payments every month.

    The last time I checked my principal balance, I was around $9,760 and that was roughly 8 months ago.... My principal balance hasn't even dropped by 1k in that amount of time even though I've paid $3,200 in that amount of time... Something is off with this company.. DO NOT EVER DO BUSINESS WITH THEM! NEVER EVER!!!

It should've extended my contact for a little over a year. Well now it is 2024 and they claim I still owe them 12,000??!! The car isn't even worth that much!

    I’ve never had an issue with company until now. I recently switched from a tribal tag to a state tag, paid the extra fees. The title was sent to Regional Acceptance and they “tell” me since my daughter isn’t on the lien that she’s NOT allowed to be on the title. My daughter was in the title JUST in case something happens to me. Then they tried to tell me it was a state law. IF it was, which is NOT the tag office or the DMV would have said something to me when I got a state tag!!!!

I understand it's for people with bad credit but it's ridiculous. I can't even get rid of it because I still owe more than what the car is worth. I would give a zero if I could.

    This is the WORSE company I have ever financed with. Every single time you call a different representative tells you something different. Everybody has an attitude and the stupidvisors are even worse. Someone demanded I refinance my loan of a car that was a total loss before GAP could pay off their balance. 6 months later I keep getting late fees because I refuse to pay $300/month for a car I no longer have. I’ve advised I can pay less but keep getting told I’ve modified in the past (which I was told I had no choice) so I can’t do it again. Every time you ask to speak to a manager they are seemingly so busy no one is ever available, I guess they are busy in meetings talking about his to rip people off because they sure aren’t busy helping customers. I highly recommend to never use this company.

    I was financed through Regional Bank for a vehicle I purchased in 2022. Not even a year and 7 months later had to voluntarily surrender it due to the vehicle being a lemon. Regional was aware of issues with the car with daily updates, how much I was investing all the way up to how much my payments were and again didn’t care, they left me no choice but to voluntarily to surrender the car with their rude and irresponsible tactics.

    I was driving a vehicle that caused me more money in gas each month that added up to the astronomical price for my payment and mechanical problems that the dealership failed to mention. Regionals customer service department are rude, unsympathetic, and very disrespectful when I tried finding solutions to lower my monthly payments or loan terms or just wasn’t willing to help at all. I had problems with the vehicle since I got it and immediately notified Regional who said they didn’t care or have anything to do with it, surely just wanted the $$!

    I have filed a complaint with the BBB in hopes to get a resolution from this as it is unfair that I was given no apology for the inconvenience caused by them for the emotional and mental distress they have caused. I tried returning the vehicle to the dealership within 3 separate times for the same issues they didn’t fix and lost work and pay due to their careless service. In the contract I signed there was a no cool-off period which meant if I changed my mind it was now my problem, the money I put down for the vehicle was added for insurance I didn’t want since I had my own personal insurance, another 2500 added on for maintenance if anything happened to the car I would be covered that was snuck in and wasn’t aware of it or did I ever ask or agree to it.

    After going over all the paperwork the car price was jacked up then what the listed price was. I have again contacted Regional Service manager to get advice on how to handle this matter and again rude and unprofessional, I was told either continue making the payments as my contract says knowing there is issues with the vehicle or I can have it repo, never wanted to find a positive solution of fixing it or helping that was the go to automatically or even trying to get me into another vehicle to avoid the whole issue of getting to where we are now. I have not been given any sort of apology for the inconvenience for the incident caused and the amount that I’ve invested into the car.

    I paid my monthly payment every month never late even if I split payments before the due date. I did have to do two deferments based off family emergencies but the principal never went down regardless of how much I was paying monthly. I was so severe into negative equity with the car that I couldn’t get it refinanced, loan terms modified or monthly payments to be affordable to help me. I was left with no choice but to do the last resort of voluntarily surrendering it. I have invested so much money mechanically into the vehicle between tires that were never changed, brakes and rotors that were never changed, 2 batteries, and other things. I was lied to by the dealership about the carfax and open recalls and the damage the vehicle already had just felt I was being pushed out the door and not listened to.

    In my contract signed by Lakeland Toyota I didn’t have a cool-off period just in case I changed my mind, it was just my problem even though I went there three separate occasions to fix the problem they still never fixed. Regional Acceptance is by far the worst finance company to ever work, they don’t care about the customers, it’s all about making their money. I was sold a lemon and feel completely cheated out of my money I could of invested elsewhere but the dishonesty and credibility of Lakeland Toyota I should of followed my gut.

    I was never given other choice vehicles to look at or test drive just the first one they brought around and lied saying the bank said I could afford that, ummm no incorrect, the bank never said that. So not only did my credit get ruined by a bunch of people who lied, cheated me out of money for a lemon and a bank who could care less about the situation. I hope a a resolution will come into play to rectify the problem. I no longer have a vehicle thanks to Regional Acceptance as well as Lakeland Toyota for failure to deliver their promise of honesty and integrity for customer satisfaction. I will never recommend another person to the dealership or to ever use Regional Acceptance as a finance agent.

They did not want it. I was told to do a bill of sales on the vehicle but I could not get the title to the vehicle until I pay off. My debt is now a 14039.27. It was 12161.52 for the longest.

    There really should be a class action lawsuit on them because they're ripping people off. I've been paying on my car for over 5 years and the amount never went down. The car was in an accident and totaled out, and they don't refinance...but expect me to pay the entire car note which I'm definitely not doing. I will send them $5/month if need be because at this point, it doesn't matter because I don't have the vehicle. This company is a joke and need to be shut down.

    I willfully surrender the vehicle in March of 2024. They refused to come get the vehicle until I had to call several times and go through Management in April of 2024. I have paperwork that the vehicle was being auctioned and we would owe the difference as of April 30th 2024. It is now July 5th of 2024 and I'm being hit with late payments on my credit report. Took me a very long time to get customer service just to find out that the car has not gone to auction. They cannot tell me where the car is and even if I pay the money that they say I owe them from April to July I will not get the vehicle back. Just doesn't seem fair to me. Just doesn't seem fair.

It’s all interest and if your credit isn’t that great going to buy a car that’s one of the things I’m learning & you have to understand, interest will be a lot higher.

    Literally what even is this company. I’ve only been with them a couple months and am already having HUGE issues with them. I was charged twice within a month then charged on the first of the following month. On the RAC app (it sucks by the way barely ever works) it’s showing that I’ve only paid $1,011.16. On my USAA bank account a total of $1,977.04 has been pushed through. That is almost one THOUSAND dollars that they are not taking accountability for. When you try to call it sends you to an automated voice message. There is no option to speak to an agent. But they can blow up your phone whenever they want but when it’s your turn to do the same you can’t. The people who’ve called me and I’ve spoken to are also genuinely so rude. I absolutely despise this company and advise anyone who’s thinking of getting a loan through them to run.

    Like everyone else in this country right now I am experiencing financial difficulty and have fallen behind. No matter how many times you talk to a representative and try to schedule a payment they still call and email nonstop. They called my office phone back to back one day after I had already talked to someone. Every representative I have talked to has been rude, they all encourage you to "borrow the money from someone" and then refuse to let me schedule a payment for my next payday because I'm behind. Then I get sent to the manager who calls and emails me repeatedly after speaking to several representatives.

    First question she ask is "what's the problem, why can't you pay your bill?" I again explain to her the situation I have experienced and she says "I gave you an extension and I can gladly take that away and go ahead and put you in repossession status." I reminded her that I have tried to schedule a payment and they won't accept it. I was again told I should just borrow the money and pay them. I explained, "That's not an option." Told her I would gladly make a payment on my next payday and was told "Good luck" as she hung up on me.

    The vehicle is totaled and I called to let them know. I spoke to a lady in the claims department. She did not take any of the information for my insurance company, she was telling me that I'm still behind and I need to pay the amount that's due because gap doesn't cover it. They also told me that those extensions are not covered by gap either, that I will still have to pay out of pocket for the extensions that I had gotten when I was behind, even though my insurance company and gap are paying the vehicle off. Stay away from this company.

    I bought a 2016 Ford Focus roughly 10/16. My truck broke down recently moved to South Florida. The interest rate was 23% (not mad cause I let my credit fall in a divorce). I was approved, received the loan and car. Three months later had an oops at work. Was in the hospital for 2 weeks, was late on the first payment, no worries, called them up and they worked with me. Before COVID came, bought a forty thousand dollar truck. Had two vehicle payments at the time, called them and told them we were slow and they gave me three months to regroup. It’s 2023, the car is paid off and so is the truck. My credit score was a 550, now 725 and if it wasn’t for them I wouldn’t have the credit I have now. So before bashing a company think what did you do wrong to have them repo your vehicle....

Yes, it was an awful and desperate deal.. But it's 2023 and I still owe 20k??? HOW? To my understanding, only $87.00 is going toward the principal and the rest is interest?

    Updated review: March 24, 2023

    In my heart it’s resolved and I’m at peace with the decision that was made.

    Original Review: March 23, 2023

    Majority rules on these reviews. I blame myself, I should have worked on my credit but I needed a vehicle to get around. The only good thing was the repo man who’s coming tomorrow was very pleasant and professional. Let me choose the time and place. Only professional I’ve ever dealt with there. Regional did not give me an opportunity to work with them because I honestly couldn’t continue to pay almost $800 a month that was so underwater, it drowned. Just be careful, I don’t always go by reviews nor do I write any. But today 3/23/23 is bittersweet, and I’m glad I did it my way even though a repo is still a repo, that’s if they still in business. I done demolished my credit looking to refi. I guess if you have good credit they treat you better.

    They also said, “You know what they do right, they sell it at the auction and the remainder they will come after me." It’s already about 12,000 under, plus they probably say they sold it for barely nothing. When you know better you will do better. A very poor presentation of customer service I’ve ever endured in my life. I’m so glad it’s over. Then asked if I was going to keep the insurance and tags on the car and I responded in their language. They “the employees” were set up for failure because a real job, you won’t make it to Human Resources.

I've paid 30k on this vehicle and they state I still owe 3k on the vehicle.

    I reviewed a list of all of my payments and only 12k has gone towards the principal, 15k has gone to interest, and the rest in hidden fees. Regional states that a majority of the payments have gone towards interest due to deferred payments. One of their employees sent me a screenshot of my account. It states my interest rate is 17.97% which is not on my contract. They won't tell me how. I need to warn other consumers about their practices.

    Alright, so I bought a vehicle through Hendrick CDJRF a little over two years ago. My credit sucked (thanks to my parents using my credit as a kid and completely tanking it), so my credit union immediately said "lol nope" and sent me on my way. The dealer went to Regional Acceptance and came back with some numbers and despite the absolutely absurd interest rate (nearly 20%) I went with it. I *needed* a vehicle.

    Had to do a phone interview a couple days after I got the car, really awkward/weird but I just went with it. That was the last I heard from RAC for the duration of my loan. I did everything online, paid every payment wayyy early, was never even close to late a single time and they seemed to be totally okay with that. They never gave me any problems.

    So fast forward to a couple months ago; the interest rate is still absurd and I'm sick of paying $500+ for a car payment. I went back to my bank, again, and explained the situation. They took a look and finally allowed me to refinance through them @ only 4.5% and with a much lower payment. And Then I remembered... I had *just* made another $500+ car payment a couple days prior without thinking anything of it. Had a nice little wave of anxiety hit me when I realized I was now out $500+ because I was stupid but I digress. A few days after I finished the paperwork with my bank, I checked my account at RAC again and noted the status was now showing as "paid out". So they had gotten the money and I was out from under them! YAY!

    At this point, I forgot all about RAC and went about my life. Until a couple weeks later when I checked the mail and saw I had something from RAC. Wasn't sure what it could be but, to my surprise, it was a check for the full amount of my last payment. I have no idea how that stuff works, I don't know if they could've just kept the money and been legally good to go or what. But the fact they sent me a check absolutely blew my mind and made my life much much less stressful. I really respect that. So yeah. I had no problems with RAC and that definitely surprised me, 'cause believe me I've seen the horror stories.

    I purchased a car on Aug 28, 2019. And Regional was to finance it. I went through the steps of doing everything that was need. As soon as I left with the car I have been getting calls every day saying "we need more paperwork on you and proof you don't have a mortgage on your home and we need you w-2 and 12 months of check". I asked "how can you let me pay down on a car and call me every day for the next two weeks". I took the car back and was told I was a liar and wouldn't get my down payment back. These people is full of it.

    I cosigned for a car loan with my daughter, first mistake, the second mistake was being talked into going through Regional Finance Company. My daughter ended up totaling the car out after not owning it for a year. She current on her payments and I notified them that she had been in an accident and that they were totaling out the car and that we were just waiting on all the necessary things from our insurance company and Gap. Her bill wasn't due for another 21 days. Within a week they received a check from my insurance company for $8500.00. When her normal bill came due we didn't pay because they had just received a huge amount from one insurance and we were just waiting on the other half.

    They started blowing up my phone three to five times a day demanding payment. I explained again that we were just in an accident, had to buy a new car and pay out of pocket for a rental for three weeks. Most finance companies offer some sort of reprieve when things like this happen. They could offered 30 to 60 days to handle everything and put payments on hold while they were waiting to receive their money, they could have put the money they had already received towards her next two or three payments while we were waiting on Gap insurance to come through. Not this company, they don't care how much of they have received or the situation. One customer service told me, "Honey, it's not my fault if you can't pay your bills."

    She's lucky she wasn't in front of me at that time, I wanted to jump through the phone and show her exactly why my name isn't Honey. I have requested five times to have a manager contact me and never once have I gotten a call from Management. I always get calls from their customer service and have to go through the same thing every time. One person has notes and then the next person doesn't see the notes on our account. At the end of the day, they told me that it doesn't matter that my insurance has paid them, it only counts toward my principal not my payment and that while things are being worked out with Gap, they will continue to bill me and assess fees and what ever I don't pay while waiting on Gap won't be covered by Gap because it is considered a missing payment, so regardless of the fact that this vehicle is going to be completely paid off in a matter of weeks, they still refuse to work with me.

    They are rude, inefficient, incompetent, lack empathy and will hire any one to work in their customer service department. During all of these interactions not one of them even bothered to ask if my daughter was OK. They have reported to my credit that I was late on a payment and I think at this point I will be looking into an attorney, because something just isn't right with that company. Take my advice. Run before you sign with these people.

    First off, I notice a low-star rating. Regional Acceptance is always professional, always willing to work with customers, IF you call them. I have been 3 payments behind before I luckily became self-employed. Yes my interest rate is kinda high. My credit score is mush. That’s how it works. My vehicle never got repoed. They never made me feel like it was my fault I couldn’t pay. I see a lot of blame put on Regional. Why? Because you couldn’t or can’t handle your own financial matters like an adult? Regional isn’t giving away free cars, they’re not Oprah. I’m about to call them now and work out a payment arrangement because I’m behind a payment because 1 of my clients is running 4 days behind paying me.

    Like Regional, I trust my client because he always pays up. So you 1-star reviewers need to look at the real issue: yourselves. Or next time, take your pay stub from your $9 an hour part-time job, and your credit score of 15 (yes.15) and waltz into an auto dealership. Tell them you expect a 1% interest rate, $0 down, and a brand-new vehicle, and no phone calls or repercussions when you don’t pay on time, and see how that works out for you. The ONLY time I got multiple phone calls was when I initially didn’t want to explain why I was behind. They made it stress-free when I finally spoke with a rep.

    If you are reading this, please avoid this. The dealership we purchased our truck through used this company. After my first payment I received the next bill for the next month. I called the representative line [866-380-9730] and talked to someone. Dealing with previous loans before, this is not the same. They charge $12.62/day based on the original amount of the loan. And this never goes down. Unlike other loans that will base your interest rate off the principal you owe after making a payment. So, I will always pay $4,600 a year for the loan. As opposed to $2,500 a year when I reach $20,000 on my loan and so forth. And also, the payoff amount if I refinanced somewhere else is higher than what I actually owe after making my payments. This company is a the worst I have ever seen.

    I had my car voluntarily repossessed due to some financial issues during a divorce. Afterward, my account was forwarded to RGS Financial. This is the company RAC uses to do collections on their behalf. RAC does not sell the account to RGS, they simply use them to do the dirty work. RAC completely washes their hands of the account except to hold the debt. RGS collects, then forwards the payment to RAC. This is inconvenient, but it's whatever at this point. RAC uses a super subpar company to perform its collection activities. This company doesn't reflect single payments made on their website and you have to call for an updated balance. If you enter into a payment plan with RGS, they refuse to send you any written agreement stating that you are in that payment plan with them. This makes it extremely difficult to explain the debt and payment when getting a loan elsewhere. Both RAC and RGS are shady companies.

If your credit score isn't up in the high 700 your interest rate will be high, so I expected to have a high monthly payment and I did. There were several times I couldn't make my payment on time and I talked and made arrangements and paid it. I never had one late payment shown on my credit report not one, and I was late several times but made arrangements.

Finding a person who even knew the procedure for paying off a loan was next to impossible, but we did finally manage to get that accomplished. Little did we know that getting the title would be a month long process of constant phone calls and run-around.

    One person would say the title was in the mail, the next would say it wouldn’t be mailed for another week. Their story changed every day, and we never did get the title! In the end, we had to pay an extra $60 to get the Lien Satisfaction letter so we could go to the DMV and get a duplicate copy. And how exactly does that work? The company that is responsible for for keeping your vehicle title can just lose it, but you have to pay to fix their problem? This company blatantly takes advantage of people!

    Paid off my vehicle. Then they stated about $6.57 left. Then call them for pay off letter. They stated still 1 cents on the loan on the backend that didn't display to my account. They told me that they sent it to pay off to be written off by manager. They told me to call in three days, called in 3 days. They told me it still wasn't done.

    I am really tired of people bashing this company! Regional Acceptance is great for people who can not get their cars financed through the major companies. I have been with them ever since I purchased my very first car on 2014. I am never leaving them either. They have worked with me anytime I got in a situation. I've always made good on the payment arrangements. It is like this, if your credit is not great this company will do its best to finance your vehicle. Sure the interest rate is sky high, but it is what it is. That is the penalty paid for not having great credit.

    The customer service representatives are all awesome. They are never rude, mean, or unpleasant. Every representative I've dealt with have been courteous and always on point. So many people want to put Regional Acceptance down, but I am not with that negativity. Sometimes people only tell their "side of the story", to make them look good. I do not work for this company at all and am just a customer. Some people are not telling the whole truth and are leaving important details out of their negative experience. They are leaving out what they did to contribute to it. Thank you Regional Acceptance Corp for being there for me when I've needed y'all the most. An honest, pleased customer.

    OMG. Never get an auto loan from these guys, we got a loan back in 2014 and they charge you interest on the amount of the loan every day!!! And very little if any of your payment goes toward your principal balance. My soon to be ex husband had been paying on this truck or so I thought. But I guess he took out several actions that I wasnt aware of. Then in October he decided he couldn’t afford it anymore even though he told our son that he would continue to pay for it.

    Now he has two incomes. His and his fiancé and me. I’m now a single mom who can’t afford it and when I explained what happened to Regional they were like, "Sorry we can’t help you or give you an extension. You’ve used them all." I said, "No my ex did. Not me. But no." So I finally have had enough and when they called while I was down with the flu. I answered and told them I’m doing a thing cause I’m stuck in bed with the flu and I’ll call when I get better. Did they stop calling. No. They kept calling. So yesterday they called with a different phone number that I answered and while on the phone they called me from the regular number that calls me, well I stated, "That’s funny. You guys are calling me on the other line. From another number too".

    But I told her when my son comes home in about two weeks we will be turning in the truck. So she said she’s note it in the account, well wouldn’t you know they call last night and this morning again to try and get a payment and when I told them I had spoken to them already and was going to turn the truck in they said, "Oh let me get you over to a supervisor to see if we can work with you." What. Are you serious. No thank you. So yeah let’s see how many more times they call me before I turn the truck in.

    I was in an extremely bad accident on December 25th and as a result had to buy a new car. I had a great experience with the car buying process but that bliss ended when I spoke to Regional Acceptance. A "Monica" called me to go over details of the loan that had been approved and when the subject of auto insurance came up, I had questions. Monica indicated Regional Acceptance would only accept a 500 deductible on my policy. I, on pain killers and muscle relaxers as well as being in a very bad emotional state, questioned this requirement because I had a higher deductible than 500.00. I asked what would happen if someone had a higher deductible and she went on to say they would only accept 500. I asked what could be done because I could not afford the premium the insurance company was charging on a deductible that low.

    After going back and forth I asked to speak to a manager and that's when Daphne ** got on the line. I told her I could not get a straight answer to the insurance question and reiterated my concern. Daphne's demeanor was offensive to me just as I was probably not very nice back. I expressed my concern about the insurance again, to only have Daphne become combative. I kept repeating my question as to what would happen if I could not afford the insurance premium on a 500 deductible and at this point she continued to be argumentative. She then stated she was going to send my file back to the dealership if I didn't stop being rude. I explained my concern again and said to please not threaten me with sending my file back. She began to taunt me saying "I am not threatening you. I am telling you I am sending your file back".

    She also stated that they only wanted to deal with people they feel they won't have problems with and they only want to deal with people who are going to make their payments. I am not sure why she drew the conclusion that I would not pay my car payment. She also stated that she felt that I was going to change my insurance back to a higher deductible and therefore they didn't want to deal with me. Keep in mind my loan was already approved. Becoming very emotional and angry at this point I asked to speak to HER manager. I don't know who it was I spoke to because they did not identify themselves but the girl that got on the phone has the same offensive attitude with me. I pleaded with her to not send my file back that I was just in a bad accident (I almost lost my husband and my life) and that this all stemmed from a concern about my insurance.

    After being patronized by Daphne and this woman I said that if I was in a situation where I had to protect my household budget, my insurance would be one of the things I could change in order to afford it! This woman and Daphne both decided my file was being sent back. I practically begged but this woman, just like Daphne, in a very sarcastic voice said it was too late, I could go find another lender.

    I contacted the dealership via my sales person who said not to worry, they had connections at Regional and they would get it fixed. At this point I am thinking of how and why a company would "play god" with my life and why was I even having this conversation with the dealership! I wasn't aware of any other approval with the terms I had requested to of course my emotions and stress skyrocketed. I almost died and now I am having to deal with this. The sales person called me a few days later and ask me to please call Daphne back and that everything was fixed. The file was not rejected any longer. I called Daphne on January 5th at 4:07 pm. She took it upon herself to remind me of our conversation the day before, again her demeanor was very unprofessional. She stated that she was the one that approved my loan and that I still needed to speak to another department and that she was transferring me to a girl named Angie.

    Angie did not answer so I left a detailed message with my phone number to call me back. I never got a call. I followed up again a few days later and again never got a call back. I waited about a week and contacted Daphne's office again leaving a message in what sounded like the general mailbox and Daphne never called me back. I contacted my salesperson at the dealership via text and he said that the file was no longer rejected and everything was fine. I have a temporary tag on the car which was very near expiration as well as my first payment becoming due in two weeks so I called Regional Acceptance customer service only to find out I was not in their system. They transferred me to the Tampa office where Daphne works but she would not get on the phone. She told the person who answered (I believe it was Monica again) that I should speak to the branch manager.

    Ken ** gets on the phone and he states that I was nasty to them so they sent my file back. All this time I think everything is fine after I spoke to Daphne on January 5th, yet nothing was fine. I was lied to. I tried explaining to Mr. ** that I spoke to Daphne a second time and that I was under the impression everything was fine, and with the same offensive demeanor, he said I could find another lender. I sent a text to my salesperson who happened to be off work and said he didn't know now and that he would check when he returned to work. I feel like this lender took an escalated conversation from the beginning and used that to taunt me and they did it proudly.

    I am in mortgage lending and if a loan originator or manager treated a borrower the way I was treated, their lending license would be up for disciplinary action through the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. These people at Regional Acceptance Corp not only conducted themselves in a very ill way, Daphne made reference to them not wanting to deal with people who were not going to pay their bills. She and her manager took pride in what they did. I don't know who regulates them but I will find out. I never received proper disclosure of a reject, loan turn down, nothing. Daphne ** treated me like the scum of the earth and based on her words to me, she was proud of it.

    After investigating who I was dealing with I find that she was recently arrested for a felony in November as well as doesn't pay her bills as evidenced by a recent lawsuit from her lien holder on her vehicle's repossession. I don't know why and how a company would employ a felon and her charge is evidence of the type of person that probably should not have access to the public's personal information. I am contacting the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to see if they regulate the auto lending industry. I am writing this complaint because of the emotional stress this has caused me as well as my concern for my private information now being in the hands of these people. I am also contacting BB&T Bank whom Regional Acceptance is a subsidiary of and will be making another formal complaint with them.

    Updated on 02/08/2018: If you read my review I wrote previously then this will be the icing on the cake. The dealership was provided with my updated insurance showing a 500 dollar deductible which was sent to Daphne as per the dealership sales/management. They had the nerve to misrepresent themselves on my "adverse action" letter I receive in the mail dated January 23, 2018. It stated that the reason for my credit denial/termination of change was that they had not received the requested information (my insurance). This was after Daphne stated they had made the exception upon approving my loan to allow a 1000 dollar deductible. So why is it that Daphne and her superstar branch manager Ken feel it acceptable to lie on a formal document?

    These people have unethical business practices. Stay clear of these people and make sure the dealership you visit for a car purchase knows to NOT submit your loan to these people. I wanted a zero money down loan and I got it from an actual bank (my score was 650 at the time of application). You do not have to deal with the scum of the earth to get a high loan to value loan on your car. I am in the process of communicating with the State Attorney's office here in Florida as well as the CFPB. I know karma will prevail and I'm happy to help it along.

    This is kind of a 2-in-1 for both Regional and Keffer. I stopped in at Keffer Chrysler/Jeep/Dodge/Ram one March afternoon in 2014 just to look at what was on the lot. I had just put $70 worth of gas in my '05 Cherokee Laredo. Some young kid name Xavier comes out and starts smooth talking me. At this point, I was nearly up on my lease and was already approved to move to another apartment complex closer to work in Charlotte, NC, and I should have just gone home. However, I used to have 2000 Cavalier Z24 5 Speed manual and thought about getting a Dart. So I talked to Xavier, test drove one, liked it, and I had a decent credit score (low to mid 600's) and no money down, and they held my keys hostage (like all dealerships do). I was literally there for 8 hours.

    They gave me hardly anything for my Jeep and I rolled in several thousand of negative equity. Again, I should have said no, but high-pressure sales got to me. They gave me financing through Regional Acceptance, but not even on the car I wanted. They pulled an Avenger around that had all the bells and whistles. Again, I should have just walked. I took the deal. 636 a month. That was more than my rent. I ended up cancelling moving to the new apartment (which was much nicer and a lot closer) because I couldn't afford the rent and the car payment.

    Fast forward and I've taken a few extensions out here and there (I've had 2 job losses and changed cities twice, but back in the Charlotte area now). In December, I still owed for my November payment, so I called in to request an extension. They automatically did a 2 month (not sure why), and I sent in the paperwork. In order to "better my chances", I went ahead and set up two auto payments in January splitting the payment up.

    Now, I did request a cease and desist because they had harassed me so much in the past, so when they denied it, they never told me. I called in early January to ask if those two payments could be applied to principal only as I was planning on paying about 8k or so down as a principal reduction payment so I could refinance the car. By this time, I had paid nearly 28,000 and still owed nearly 21,000. I hate Regional with a passion, and I'm ready to be rid of them. I had been working the past 2 years to get my credit back up in the upper 600's.

    So I'm calling in about the two payments previously mentioned, just to find out my extension was denied. Their reasoning? "We only give out 8, and if we had approved you, we'd only have 1 left". So what? Who cares? So I had it out with a manager asking them to re-do the extension because I'm going to attempt to refinance it and she refused. I called in a few days later and re-applied and got it approved.

    Well, I first was going to go through my credit union. When they ran my credit, they said my Experian score was below 500. I yelled "what in the hell?!" Just two months prior it was around 630ish. Regional reported it as a 60 day late, and while I did have a medical collections hit my account, it plummeted my scores over 100 points and 2 years worth of working on my credit went down the drain. Now, nobody will refinance my car due to my credit score being tanked. I'm hoping once they report at the end of this month, they'll report it correctly. I requested two disputes through Experian, and both times they didn't change it. So while I did pay down the loan to about 12,800 or so, which is definitely a plus, I'm still stuck with 636/month and Regional.

    I seriously hope all of their employees burn for working for such a predatory company. I lost nearly 1k of credit on my AmEx card because my score dropped, nearly making my card maxed out. I don't try to live with regrets, but I nearly regret the day I decided to "take a look at what's on the lot" that day. Never take a deal with these people.

    I admit that they have deferred payments. 11 in fact as we ran into some medical issues and custody issues. However, they act like they are doing you this huge favor. When in reality the only reason I ever agreed was so they don't repo since it is my only transportation to work. I've made payments but like everyone else the balance doesn't budge. Explain to me someone please how your payoff balance is more than your principal. Paid sticker price of $12,900 on a Kia Sportage and now owe 17,897.85 to pay it off. Every payment that you make goes straight to interest... How the heck do you ever pay off a loan that is straight interest when they charge you $9.48 a day in interest. YOU DON'T.

    Purchased a vehicle in 2012 after my second deployment. Now in 2017 I still owe 12,000 from a 23,000 loan. Sadly, I owed that same amount over a year ago. These people will harass you nonstop if you owe them money, call everyone they can to get to you, and have been some of the rudest folks I have ever dealt with on the phone. Sadly I can't get away from them and honestly feel that this is their game. We never had our pay off amount stop going down until we attempted to get a new car last summer. The only thing that stopped us was being too far upside down and being barely shy of having what was needed to push the loan through. Since then, my payoff hasn't dropped.

    Had below average credit with below $2000/monthly income at the time when I tried to buy a used Ford Explorer from a Ford dealership a couple years ago for $8900. Regional Acceptance offered to finance at 15% interest, payment of $280 monthly. $2000 down. I accepted. The. Biggest. Mistake. Of. My. Life. What follow were 3.5 years of terrible customer service experience and horrible reporting to credit bureaus. If I were ever late with my payment by a day or two, I'd get 5-10 robocalls per day, even if a payment was scheduled in advanced. When I would answer a call, a really mean customer service rep would answer and bash me for being late with the payment. Thanks for understanding... and then they would still call the next day etc and report it immediately to the credit bureaus. I was late on payment by 30 days and a rep on the phone threatened to repo the car... awesome.

    When I was on time with payments, 90% of the time, they never reported on time payments... After 3 years of paying, I still had $7000 of balance left.. from a $10k total loan. Yeah that makes sense... not. I sold my house earlier this year and this bill was the first I went to pay off. I went to a "regional office" of theirs in my city and took 30 minutes for me to find their office suite in a massive building because it wasn't listed on the office listings. When I got there, it was an unmarked room on the interior and the staff person there literally said "who are you" and "how did you find this office? I said "well, this is regional acceptance right?" And the lady said "who are you and why are you asking?" Are you kidding me!!?? I pay you monthly for my car and you ask why I came to visit you in person to pay off my loan?

    "Our regional offices are not for customer service, only loan approval. You shouldn't have found this office because we can't do anything for customers here." They only have customer service branches in the Carolinas, but that's because they don't finance cars in the Carolinas. They don't have any physical branch offices in any of the states they do business in. So this regional office turned me away and asked that I pay off my car over the phone. $7k, that a chance. It took them a week to send a pay off on paper, and then 4 weeks for them to send me a written receipt confirmation (but taking my $7k was Instant) that the lien was removed, and another week to notify Texas DMV to issue a clean title. And another month before they reported to credit bureaus that I paid off the car. Total BS treatment.

    I tell y'all, the way this company treated me made me realize that they really want you to fail on your payments. They want to repo your car so they can auction it off. They'll get their money either way. It's a crime they are still in business. I would rather walk for miles and miles to work than take another car loan from these people. Seriously, avoid this company at all costs. Terrible experience.

    Regional Acceptance Corp (owned by BB&T) is by far the worst company I have ever dealt with. I purchased a 2013 Chevy Impala from a local dealership a couple of years ago and this is the company they said had the best rates and options for me. I, like a fool, agreed though the payments were a little higher than I wanted as was the interest rate -- I went ahead with it after I was assured that I could refinance after a year of on time payments to receive a better rate and term. This was a lie -- I paid on the car for 18 months then was downsized from my job and was making less per week at my new one so I thought it would be the right time to do the refi. I contacted RAC and was told point blank, "We don't do refinance." OK so Doug Henry Chevrolet lied (no surprise there) but the rep I spoke to initially with RAC did as well.

    I asked for my payoff amount figuring that I would go to my credit union and do a refinance and be done with it -- imagine my surprise when I found out the car I paid 22K for had a payoff of 22K! I questioned this and was told that, "For the first 24 months your entire payment goes towards interest." This should be illegal. There was no way to refinance as the maximum KBB value at this point was 13K. If I sold privately and trade-in value was 9K. I had been paying 498 per month for 18 months which is $9000 and it was for naught. I attempted to work with them as liked the car and didn't want to hurt my credit -- I asked about changing the due date from the 1st of the month to the 14th and was told nope, wasn't their problem that most of my bills were due on the first; asked to defer a payment as I was starting to struggle and was granted one but charged for it.

    After this I was getting phone calls at work, home and on the cell the day before my payment was due each month. I was working to pay bills only by now and praying that nothing would happen. When I had a death in the family and went out of state for a week my payment was missed and paid late but I was berated, spoken to like a deadbeat and harassed. Enough. I finally told them to pick up the car. After a ration of you know what and being spoken to like a piece of doggie doo the car was picked up. Mind you, this was another 7 months after I had inquired about the refinancing option and yet I still owe 22K.

    They sold the car at auction 6 months later for $3200 then had a collection agency call me to state that I owed them $19,000. Well guess what? Now I am filing bankruptcy because of this situation and they will get nothing. Had they actually been willing to WORK with a customer who asked for help and not charge them up the hooha they would have gotten their money. I guess in sharing this story I would recommend to ANYONE who is presented this company to think twice. There ARE better options that won't gouge you quite so much and try and treat you as though you are a slug.

    How are they still in business? I'm in the same boat as everyone else. I didn't have bad credit, just not enough to get a higher rate in a pinch. I've been paying for almost 4 years on a 14K loan, (almost 20K paid so far) and I still owe over 10K? I'm so desperate to get rid of this car that I've borrowed from my retirement to pay this off. I was a week late on my recent payment due to waiting for the full loan amount to hit my account. I make the final full payment on Friday, and they're calling me multiple times over the weekend claiming I need to make a payment?

    But you can't get ahold of a human over the weekend despite their weekend hours. so I call Monday to find I owe an additional 300 dollars on the loan. This may have been my mistake as this is my first time paying off a loan and doing it early at that, but I recall when I called several weeks ago in an attempt to prepare what I need to pay it off, I was told she "couldn't tell me how much I would owe" AKA she was too lazy to do the calculation. So my recommendation as is everyone else's, STAY FAR FAR AWAY. If you're already in contract with them, use the automated system as much as possible, give them as little information as possible and get out of the loan as fast as possible.

My complaint is I had my car in the shop being fixed several times and I had to get a payment differed to cover the cost of the repairs.

    The repairs cost way more than the payment so I had to ask the dealership to please hold on till I can get the funds together. They did for a few weeks but then they contacted Regional Acceptance and told them they were placing a lien on my car and as soon as they said that Regional picked up my car from the DEALERSHIP!

I now know I can't trust your customer service folks at Regional Acceptance because you will take money without permission.

    I must say one good thing was Carniece was very welcoming and listened and she stood firmed but her customer service was awesome. As mad as I was she hung right there and even read out the comments made on the account, removed the liar comment about me making a card payment on the due date we discussed. I explained bunches of times I will not give my card out now because I won't trust these folks on what they said. I will close down my account at my bank to get a new credit card and debit because if you will lie like that then you will STEAL.

    REGIONAL ACCEPTANCE I AM SO DISAPPOINTED AND WON'T RECOMMEND ANY FRIENDS NOR FAMILY TO YOUR COMPANY BECAUSE FOLKS need a company we can trust and that for you with me is quite small. Not trusting yall. I will only use the automated machine! I honestly can believe she would lie for a payment when I told I will do something and did but you lie just to get a payment and boldly said I told you that when she read your statement that I personally tell any company I don't get out my card and you force yourselves to make me do something.

    The car in question is a 2009 Nissan Ultima. I am the poa for my father. For the past year I have been asking the company to pick up the car because there is no money due to illness in the family. My father didn't pay because of dementia as well. As requested I sent in the poa numerous times and documented each time it was sent. I was told... "I like my job and I don't lie" by the rep at the other end of the line. What does liking your job have to do with a numerous times sent email with return receipt indicating it was opened?

    Anyway... the company scheduled a tow pick up for Tuesday last week of July 2017. Instead of the report guy calling... the rep is calling back asking for a payment. I said no. You can't bleed me dry for a loan not in my name. I guess they got pissed off because the company garnished 3800.00 from my father and mother's social security and my mom's name isn't even on the loan for the car.

    After 32 inquiries from Sims Buick Regional Acceptance financed a 2016 vehicle with may trade. I drove off the lot with the car. Didn't like the payment but that's life. The following Wednesday I made the welcome call. They asked who this person was on my insurance. It was my fiance. Next day I was accused of buying the car for him. Never said that... And what if I was. I was already approved. Then they wanted fiance to apply in conjunction with me. Not as cosigner. Keep in mind I was literally driving the car for 6 days. They came back and insisted on at least $1500.00 down. No down payment needed when I purchased it 6 days prior. I gave them back their car and got my old one back. Both have been reported to the bin. Lawyered up about all the hard inquiries on my credit report too. Beware using either of these businesses.

    I've been with Regional Acceptance for... Going on 4 years now (I think, maybe 5?). I had gone through a divorce, and a prolonged 5-year fight for 100% Disability through the VA. So my credit was not great. Hell, I wouldn't have even called it "good." I was a high-risk contract and I understood that going into Budget Car Sales. I was shown a 2012 Nissan Altima with very low mileage. I didn't really like being shown only one car, so I left. Overnight I thought about it and went back to the dealership to truly take a look at the car. I ended up financing it with Regional Acceptance Corp for 6 years and a payment of roughly $435 per month. Their approval process was quick and painless.

    I understood that I was taking a high-interest loan. I also understood that my payments would be going toward interest first, unless more than a minimum amount is paid (and it is written that you want the extra to go to the principal payment (like any other loan). So long as you have all your paperwork in order and proof of income, then you won't have a problem. I've never been late on a payment either. I got remarried in Feb 2017. I called to see if I could defer a payment since I had been with the company for a number of years with zero late payments and absolutely no issues. They were polite and courteous. The lady I spoke with not only offered my 1 deferred payment but 2 in a row. She spoke fluent English and laid out the terms and conditions over the phone with no issues.

    I understood that I'd be adding 2 months to my final payment date and that interest would continue to accrue. I also understood that I can not defer any payments for another year with me taking two deferred payments. So long as you follow through with your contract, you will not have an issue with RAC. I can only imagine any car loan company would want to repo their car under contract should you fall behind on payments. I can only imagine that RAC follows the law in these situations.

    I'd recommend Regional Acceptance Corp to anyone with the following caveats: Follow your contract by the letter. If you don't, expect issues. If you intend to not pay them on time, expect issues. If you lose your job or fall on hard times, can not defer payments, and pay late (or not at all), expect issues. If you have a spotty payment history with them, expect issues. If you don't like the terms and conditions of the loan offered, walk away. You are not forced to sign anything. Signing a contract is a legal agreement stating you will pay as agreed and the failure to do so will result in whatever consequences are laid out in the contract. If I'd say that with any company though.

    We applied for an auto loan which we were approved for last Saturday. We didn't take home the car the same day because we wanted something custom installed. Every day during the week, this company asked for something to verify our income. It was as much as purchasing a house. It was ridiculous. When we gave all the information they needed, they took their sweet time approving the loan when it was already approved on Saturday. Then today, Friday, they rejected it. No explanation and will not accept the dealership's phone call. I think it's pretty unprofessional and unethical to change your mind after contract is already signed.

    After reading the reviews here, I am glad they rejected us. I wouldn't want to give them my business anyway. This sounds like a pretty crooked loan company that should be closed down and sued continuously. Nobody should come here because it is a nightmare from hell that you will never come away from once you get into it.

    Let's just say never have any type of hardships while with this so called company. My car was repossessed on the same day I was going to pay my arrears. I experienced a layoff from my job and was trying to play catch up on all my expenses. After my car was repossessed, I called to see if I could pay my arrears and was told so had to go through an approval process. I was asked if I received unemployment and if so that I would have to send proof. I provided the proof and told them that with my income tax refund and securing a new job, I would be on top of my payments after paying my arrears.

    After waiting a few days, I called to check on the approval status. The supervisor I had been speaking with was already gone for the day so I asked if anyone else could assist me. I was transferred to the manager who was responsible for the approval review. She told me I was denied and would have to pay the full amount of the loan. I only had the loan for eight months and they are requiring the total loan amount to be paid off in full! Really? How does that make any sense. I had been paying on time except for the last two months. The manager proceeded to tell me that I was a liar because I told one representative that I was not getting unemployment and told another one that I did receive it. This was untrue and they can pull the recording of my phone conversations as proof! The mere fact that I was called a liar by the manager is rude, unprofessional and unethical!

    I pray they never experience any hardships. I don't know how they sleep at night knowing they are messing up people's livelihood! Now how am I supposed to get to my new job? It was hard enough to get approved for this loan as my son had to co-sign for me and now both of us will have to suffer with this repo on our credit! Lord knows I needed this car and I pleaded with the manager even after all of her insults, but remained unsuccessful in my attempts. There was no problem resolution on any level. I asked for at least one month to be put on the back end of the loan as suggested by one reps. Nothing did they do to try to help! I had the money ready and available to be sent the same day my car was picked up and I still ended up without a car! Do not finance with this company... Ever!

    I am very unhappy with my experience with Regional Acceptance and usually don't write reviews but I am hoping that this will help someone. I am in the same boat as everyone else, not having the best of credit and looking to get a new vehicle. Having previously paying off a vehicle that I gave to my son, I was looking to get a newer vehicle and Regional Acceptance financed me. My original loan amount was for around $16,000 and 4 year term. I will admit that I had a few late payments when I was laid off even causing me to at one time lose the vehicle but I did regain it back and continued to make my payments on it. I purchased my 2010 vehicle in February 2012 and have made my payment of $446.00. Now 5 years later I have paid $21,000 into the car and have been told that I still owe $13,000 on my vehicle due to late payments.

    I have asked several times to see my loan paperwork after being told that I was being financed for 72 months instead of 48 months but have refused to give it to me to date. This is a complete rip-off. There is no way late payments should double a loan of $16,000 to $34,000 which is what I will have paid for the vehicle once paid off, way more than what the car was worth when new. I am unable to get another vehicle because of being so upside on this vehicle. Lesson learned and will be more careful to research a finance company first before just going with them because they accepted me. I hope that lawyers are reviewing these complaints. I would like to see and be a part of a class action lawsuit brought against this company for unfair practices and taking advantage of the disadvantage.

    Regional Acceptance is by far the worst finance company that I have tried to work with. I co-signed for my daughter to get a car through them, but first thing was I was suppose to be the co-signer and I ended up being the borrower. The first week of March my daughter totaled lost the car. Here it is May 2, 2016 and I am still dealing with Regional Acceptance to close this claim. State Farm paid off most of the balance of the car, in March. Every time I call Regional Acceptance they say they need paperwork from State Farm. Every time I call State Farm they have sent what they need, yet they still don't have it. I have called Regional Acceptance several times and tried to speak with a claims person, but all I can get is Customer Service. I can leave a message for a claims person to call me back, but when you try to leave a message when you press a number to get an extension it does not work.

    I have both State Farm and Regional Acceptance on the phone at the same time and the person from Regional Acceptance keeps saying "I am sorry, but we have not received anything from State Farm." So is State Farm lying or is Regional Acceptance lying? State Farm has paid the majority of the claim off only leaving a balance of $1700. Why is it that State Farm says they have faxed over the paperwork on two different occasions, yet Regional Acceptance still does not have it. What is the problem here? This is ridiculous. I have been trying to contact the local office, still cannot talk with a human. Totally dissatisfied with Regional Acceptance. I have no confidence in them as a company. If an insurance company can pay a $16,000 claim in a few days, to be for sure they can get a $1700 claim paid in a day or two. With the help of the Lord, I will never deal with Regional Acceptance again.

    Since this accident, they are trying to say that my account is 45 days past due. The devil is a lie. That is their fault that it is taking to close this account. If there was a way to sure their butts I would, just having to deal with them the past 60 days. I am will to drive 3 hours to the company here in North Carolina just to get this issue resolved this week. Regional Acceptance loves targeting people with low credit scores so that they can charge them these ridiculous high interest rates. I warn any reading this, stay away from Regional Acceptance. Ripoff company.

    I have owned my vehicle for 7 months and have never missed a payment until today when I called in to make what thought was my March payment that turned out to be the 2nd half of February's payment. No one notified me that it was late so in my mind I was still caught up. When I tried to explain how I made two payments a month, first half at the beginning and second half at the time of payment... I was interrupted several times. I was told that my payment didn't "hit my bank account" until two days after calling in to make a payment, which is not my fault! My due date is my due date regardless! I kept having to tell her to let me finish talking before she cut me off several times and when I asked for my account number she ranted it off really fast in a mean aggressive tone so I had to ask again and she got even more of an attitude.

    I have never spoken with anyone in the customer service field as rude as these people at Regional Acceptance the last 3 times I have called in to make a simple payment. Must be nice working somewhere you can just tell people off because of a misunderstanding instead of trying to be helpful. So unprofessional and I will be refinancing ASAP!

    I took a car loan out back in 2010. I did not have the best credit rating at the time but after 5 years making payments and yes I did fall behind but noticed after about 4 years the balance was never changing. The loan was for $16000 and after and the balance was over $15000 and every time I talked to regional acceptance they would do nothing about it. All they would say is, "Would you like to make a payment?" And I asked for a refinance and they said they can't do that. Since when can't a bank refinance a loan?

    I tried to do a voluntary repo and they got so rude and nasty and told me if I tried to return the car they would go after my paycheck, my taxes, my bank account, and anything I owned so it left me no choice but to hire an attorney and file chapter 7. They are the worst bank to deal with and they should be put out of business. They will give anyone a car loan when you are in a bind and charge you high fees and interest and tell you, "Well you agreed to the terms." But not all the fees are in the fine print like charge you $10 a day when you are late on top of the late fees and when you do make a payment and ask that the payment go to the principal they say they can't until the account is up to date so every time you make a payment it all goes to fees and charges and the balance never drops so stay far away from them because you will be upside down for a long time. I hope this post will help someone out and not get caught up into their trap.

    I have been mistreated by Regional Acceptance on several occasions. By attitude, talked down to, and hung up on. A woman called me saying I had not made my monthly payment, which I had transferred from my bank. It just had not showed in their system yet. I told her the situation and she proceeded to tell me with an attitude that it's not her problem that I can't pay my bills on time and I need to be more responsible. Yesterday I had to call in to make a payment over the phone and I was trying to teach a representative who was it working that day.

    The man on the phone talked down to me and he said he has no idea when the man will be back to work but he can take the payment so I can "stay in my car" as if it was a threat. I asked if I may leave a message for the rep I was trying to reach and he said "have a nice day" and hung up on me. Poor service, but worse, poor treatment of fellow human beings.

    I have had the displeasure of dealing with this hateful excuse of a financial institution. I purchased a new car on 30 Aug of this year. I have a rough pay history due to family health issues, my own included. On 06 Sep, I was practically ran over by an older fellow driving a large motor home, pulling a large horse trailer. It was the other driver's fault, especially on the traffic collision report. I immediately contacted Regional Acceptance Corp, and explained to them exactly what had happened. This was a few weeks after the accident, after I had located a decent law firm to represent me. I was off work, on leave without pay, due to the health issues I explained earlier in this review.

    They had not one iota of understanding, the only issue important to them that I had a payment due. And as of this date, they have attempted to circumvent any way possible to get their payments. My attorneys even tried to get them to give me a couple of months to get back on track, financially. It was one of those "We empathize with you, but you owe us money, period." I would strongly recommend that anyone trying to accomplish any action, such as buying a new home, or a new car, not have any involvement with this company. None whatsoever. I found out the hard way.

When they gave us the payoff amount it was for the amount including the payment that had yet been received. Initially they sent a refund for overpayment which was a good thing.

    I'm reading all of these negative reviews about Regional Acceptance and I'm quite puzzled. I purchased a car from a dealership on a 6 year note. I had very poor credit as a result of a lengthy separation from my spouse. First of all, I was amazed at Regional Acceptance right from the start. I walked into the dealership without a penny down (I had recently used all of my savings to pay cash for a car for my 16 year old daughter). They financed me with nothing down and I was able to buy a 1 year old car with only 29K miles, all with poor credit. I even got a lower interest rate than most of the "Tote-the-Note" dealerships offered. My interest rate is still high (17%) but what do you expect with poor credit? You're basically saying to them, "Hey, loan me $15,000.00 so I can buy a car, and by the way, my history proves that I may very well not pay you back." Low credit score = High Risk!

    Like most of the complaints on here, I will have paid twice the cost of the car when I'm done because of the high interest. At least I'm not walking. Some of you have mentioned losing your vehicles and getting harassing phone calls due to health issues or lost jobs or whatever reason you couldn't pay your car payment. It sucks but that's the way it works. You borrow money - you pay it back or you lose your collateral. That shouldn't come as a surprise to everyone. So far I haven't had one single problem with Regional Acceptance because I pay my bills and I pay them on time. There might come a day when I can't and I end up in the same boat as the rest of you. I have compassion for people going thru hard times but big business doesn't work that way. If they did they wouldn't be in business very long.

    I bought a car from Orr Toyota in December of 2013. Regional Acceptance was chosen to be my finance company. My car was a Toyota Prius 2011. The car cost 19K, they financed it at 32,000.00. It was truly not worth it because as of May 4, 2015, new information came to light. I struggled and even was homeless attempting to pay for it. I signed up to drive for Uber because I was behind in my note and I knew I could make money to catch up on everything. Uber denies me driving for them because they say my title is branded. At first, I thought Uber was mistaken but they came back with more emails stating that the title has been rebuilt and salvaged.

    Anyone knows it is illegal to sell a car with branded title and finance companies won't finance a car with such a title because they cannot make any money from the transaction. Orr Toyota is no longer in business which means Regional Acceptance holds my title. I spoke with several people at RAC and one of them sent me copies of the clean titles that I forwarded them to Uber who still denied me the ability to drive after receiving the copies from RAC.

    As I told them I find it hard to believe that RAC didn't know my title was salvaged 30-60 after getting it from Orr Toyota. Yes, Orr Toyota started the fraud but RAC continued it by not revealing that my car was not worth 19k but 1,000-3,000 instead. I want all my money back for the car but RAC is still contending their titles are clean. They wanted their money back after Orr got over on them by making me pay back the 19K. If I had not tried to drive for Uber I would still be paying 446.00 for a car with a bad title.

    By law if Orr Toyota had disclosed that information, there would be no issue and I would not have purchased it but they said nothing so they were just as bad as RAC. Uber sent me an email stating "Announced Auction-Frame Damage." After two weeks of submitting documentation to RAC and them repoing my car this morning, which I believe is in retaliation for this complaint, the finance manager ** told me that "Uber was incorrect and that their title was clean." My car note was indeed late but why now all of sudden would you come after a car, when you stopped all collection calls to me once I made them aware that I knew that my title was salvaged.

    Uber has no reason to lie nor would they falsify any documentation about a vehicle when they ran a normal check on it so that I could drive for them. ** from RAC had the nerve to tell me they did their research and stood firm about the fact that Uber is wrong about the car having a branded title. No, they are not, it's just that it's out and RAC did not expect me to find this out like this and have me to look foolish with continued payments for a car that is worthless. The insurance company will not cover it unless I can prove that I have repaired the frame damage. Why would I pay to fix a car with a branded title? It is illegal in most states including Texas to sell a car with branded title. I want everyone to know what you are dealing with and they are not accredited with BBB either.

Due to my credit I was unable to obtain one so my roommate signed a loan for me and I was a co signer. But the dealer told us that they got approval for us by regional acceptance and we paid a deposit down on the car and took the delivery on a 2010 ford focus with 27,000 miles on it which was good. After having the car for a week the dealer called us back and told us that regional acceptance decided that they weren't going to finance us. After I had an interview with them a week later on the phone and since I told them that I took a car back to a buy here pay here place due to the car needing several thousand dollars of repairs, they said it was a repo in the last six month. How can they refuse me a car loan after taking delivery on it and it didn't state that they have thirty days to change their minds on the contract. This contract was legally broken and this will result in a class action lawsuit when I get a hold of a lawyer.

    I needed a good vehicle, Regional Acceptance came through when no one else would. My credit scores were poor due to some bad decisions, other finance companies were not willing to finance a car without a large down payment. Regional financed a 2 year old Jeep for me with a small amount down and fair monthly payment. Yes the interest was high, expected with poor credit. Customer service was great, never a problem. I had the loan for 6 years and never missed a payment, now it's paid off.

    I had to file to file bankruptcy 9 years ago when economy changed drastically and my small business could no longer survive. I am repairing my credit and decided to upgrade my transportation now that I've been on my job for 8 years. I purchased a car and Regional financed it. I made my first two payments on time early even. I also got engaged to be married about the same time that I purchased the car. I knew that the wedding was going to be costly and based on my budget I also knew that I would need to skip a payment in order to make it work. I contacted the 1800# and they directed me to my local office. The representative in the local off said that it was no problem and even congratulated me on my pending nuptials. Mind you I had never been late, always early with payments.

    On my wedding day a lady shows up at my house where my wedding is to be held with all of the preparation and my friends there and she's looking for two payments. She asked for the one payment approved to be skipped and the one that was not yet due. It was terribly embarrassing to have this happen period, not to mention on my wedding day. Even though I provided the name of the representative that approved the adjustment the lady apologized and still requested two payments. I live almost an hour from the local office, there was plenty of time to figure out their mistake or to even call me. I never received one call to say I was late or anything. It appeared that they needed my two payments or someone would get in trouble. I have never been so embarrassed or felt so violated. I have never had anyone ever come to my house to collect anything. I'm looking to refinance with another company, any suggestions?

    I had a couple very slow months at work, as a result I had to choose not to pay some bills so that I could make my car payment. My phone was cut off so I was only able to communicate with Regional Acceptance via email. I had tried to make a payment online but my payment would not go through. I couldn't figure out a way to add or change a payment account online so I tried asking via email if it was possible. Regional Acceptance refused to answer my question because apparently the answer to this question is considered private information. This went on for many weeks.

    I emailed once again explaining that I was trying to pay Regional Acceptance, was unable to call, and would appreciate any help. I never received a reply. About a week later "private investigators" started leaving info at my door. I work long night shifts and sleep during the day. I tried calling numbers on the cards and nobody ever answered and the voice mail was always full so I couldn't leave a message. I had a house phone turned on and started receiving ridiculous amounts of phone calls. It has been so excessive that I am unable to leave the ringer on. If I happen to turn the ringer on and answer I am usually screamed at, if I scream back I am hung up on.

    At one point I was told the loan was already charged off but if I paid I could have the car, when I explained that it didn't make sense the whole story changed. I threatened to send a cease and desist and was offered to be transferred to someone who could help me - this took 3 phone calls, in the first I was badgered to pay immediately and treated poorly - I kept asking about being transferred and talked over in a loud voice badgering me about harassing me. The 2nd I was ignored, and during the 3rd I was yelled at that every time I was transferred I hung up which wasn't true but I kept my mouth shut. I was transferred to the rep who had refused to help me when the whole thing started even though I asked to speak to someone else and was told they would transfer me to someone else. I was once again told that she would have let me know whether I could add or change my payment account online but it was considered private information.

    Meanwhile, Regional Acceptance gave my private loan details to someone they contacted trying to reach me - so much for privacy. The rep told me they were willing to work with me if I wanted to keep the car. I offered to pay the entire $1828.35, in 3 weeks was placed on a very brief hold and then told that she needed to send someone to repo the car but I could still pay them. She then started being very rude to me.

    I am surprised that a company works so hard to refuse payment and provide poor customer service. Looking back, it took an extensive amount of time to complete my welcome phone call because the information left on my voice mail was incorrect, they had changed my rep and office location and had neglected to tell me. I didn't realize at the time that this was their general level of communication. I have read so many similar complaints, I am surprised nobody has initiated a class action lawsuit.
