    Turned in my lease a week before it was up. Decided to not get another Toyota at the time because of the cost. Well, two months later I get a negative credit report saying I am almost 60 days past due on my bill. I called Toyota and was told sorry they never closed out my account when I turned in my lease. They did contact the credit bureaus and fix the error. Then several months later I get a bill from them telling me I owe them reimbursement taxes on fees they paid to Virginia during the time in which they accidentally left my account active.

    So I call them and they say "ma'am yes this is our error and we truly apologize but YOU have to contact the commissioner's office to let them know when you turned in the vehicle so that we can be reimbursed". OMG What a mess this has been. So I "the customer whose acct you never closed out properly" have to go around making calls so that Toyota can be reimbursed for a tax bill they paid while the car was in their possession??

    I've been using Toyota Financial for years and I will no longer use them or Toyota ever again. They cost me 80 points on my credit due to an error with the dealership and my billing address. Mind you I set my vehicles up through Toyota Financial Autopay. I've done this with my past 4 leases with them. Apparently they don't care about their customers as no letters or phone calls were sent informing me of late payment. Garbage. I'd highly recommend looking elsewhere for financing.

    Their system had a glitch or something, charged me twice, one day and then on the next day again, I called and they said "we still don't see it in our system so we can't stop this payment". Then a support specialist just closed my written case with no explanation of why the charge occurred, just said "we helped you over the phone, this case is closed". But they didn't help or resolve anything, wtf. Totally ignorant staff at their support center... I'm still talking to them to find out the reason of this glitch.

    Toyota Financial Services made it very easy for me to lease a Toyota. And all went well with a few bumps until the end of my lease. Then, for some unknown reason, the website refused to accept my payments for the final few months. This required a call to TFS and a very frustrating, really very very frustrating phone tree. It takes forever to get through to a real person. Finally, there is a real person. Many apologies; problem solved. Until the next month when the payment is rejected and the whole process is repeated. And again the next month. Finally, I called to see about buying the car. I only wanted information since I had not yet lined up the financing and I certainly WASN'T going through them again. They immediately sent out the paperwork which was nearly expired by the time I got it.

    I did the phone tree again. They sent out more paperwork. I paid off the car and waited for the title. It never came. Phone tree again. Oops, the title is lost in the mail. They will send a release of lien and I can pay for a duplicate title. The release came and I went to the DMV. Paperwork rejected because TFS "forgot" to have it notarized. More phone tree. TFS is so so so sorry. They will send out more paperwork and also give a gift visa card for $100. That made me feel better. The new paperwork came and time will tell if the DMV accepts it. The visa gift cards came but without any pin number, so it cannot be used. People, this has been going on for 2 1/2 months. This is their business. How can they not have a clue on how to do things???? AVOID THIS COMPANY.

    I will never finance any Toyota again with Toyota Financial as they have made so many errors regarding providing me with a clear title for my 2019 Toyota Camry Hybrid which is sitting in my garage because the registration expired and I am yet to obtain title to the car because of their numerous errors. When they submitted the title to the DMV to clear the title in my name when I fully paid off my car loan it got bounced because they failed to pay DMV adequate registration fees. After this error even though I paid the car off in full they then put the wrong name on the title so even though I paid the loan off in full I am still unable to register and or drive the car due to Toyota Financials's numerous errors. I have never had this problem before with any other finance companies obtaining a clear title in my name after my loan pay off.

They pretend to pay my fines and tickets (which they don't), then I receive late payments fines from local DMVs, pay them all personally, and Toyota claims I owe them money too.

    I have leased several vehicles in the last eight years through Honda, Chevy, GMC, and Toyota. I have nothing against the vehicle. I actually loved that Toyota Rav4 but we needed a larger vehicle. In July 2019, we turned in the Rav4 a couple of weeks early. I asked the man who took the keys if we had any charges or fees that we needed to take care of and was told "no".

    Fast forward to today - three months later - and all of a sudden we owe almost $900. We had nothing in our emails, mail, or phone calls in the meantime. Did you know that if your full name isn't in your voicemail, they won't leave you one? Supposedly, we are allowed to have a 3rd party assess damages within 60 days. Due to the three month delay, we have no recourse to correct the "quarter-sized" scratch on the right side of the vehicle except to pay $238. I guarantee a local shop could have taken care of it for half the cost. I will NEVER lease a vehicle from Toyota or Lexus again. The customer service when you no longer own their vehicle is atrocious. They need to a) better train their staff on walking customers through what the process is at the end of a lease and b) honor what their employees say.

    71 mos ago financial process went smoothly. It was at the end of the contract, being overcharged on last payment. Customer service nonexistent. Rep Shannon rude, unprofessional, Posed an inquiry she rudely responded by repeating information I already knew, no assistance whatsoever. Two other inquiries were met with the same response from Shannon. Not even an offer to escalate the issue, Contacted another office, customer care manager was supposed to call that same day or next. Ms. ** called 4 days later, after business hours.

    I called the number she provided the next day, was left on hold. Needless to say she didn't bother to call back. Issue not resolved although Shannon decided to close the case as RESOLVED. Unreal. I then decided to contact the corporate offices and stated my complaint, that fell on deaf ears as well. As of today it has been eight (8) days and no one has bothered to acknowledge receipt of my correspondence. Because, I believe no paying customer should be ignored, nor treated so rudely, I will never go back to Toyota.

    My two-year old Toyota Corolla was totaled on June 17, 2019. Toyota Financial posted payment from my insurance company on July 24, 2019. It is now Sept. 24, 2019 and Toyota's total loss department has yet to close out the claim. I have gap insurance. They told me today that it will take another 3 to 6 weeks to "cancel my warranties" from Toyota with will then provide me a partial refund. This partial refund will be applied to what I still owe on the car but since I have gap insurance I should not still owe anything. I have had to continue to make monthly payments to Toyota since the crash (as of today I have made 4 payments) so that my credit will not be dinged while Toyota Financial tries to do what they are supposedly professionals at doing.

    They told me that I do not need to make payments while they are working on the claim but it will still go on my credit report as a negative. Toyota Financial told me that once the claim is closed out they will contact the credit agencies and "fix everything" for me. REALLY? Do you think I trust them to do anything right? How long should it take to complete a claim. In the meantime, I have had to buy another vehicle which I am also making payments on. Toyota said they will reimburse the payments I am making--that remains to be seen--I really do not trust them at all. Every time I call them I am given a different person who has a different answer to my questions. They are sweet as sugar on the phone but as incompetent as a 3 year old.

    I have had 7 Toyotas in the last 13 years. The first 2 were purchased and financed through Toyota Financial, the last 4 were leases also financed through Toyota Financial Services. Let me start by saying all of the cars were great. Excellent vehicles. The purchases were problem free. The leases have been 1 headache after another. It's shocking to me that this is even the same company. The vast majority have come from property taxes which they have no idea how to bill correctly. In the last 3 years I have spent upwards of 15 hours on the phone with customer service trying to straighten out problems which they created. Time after time I was assured they were corrected, apologies were issued over and over, and a month later we had to go through it all again.

    More recently I turned in a lease in February and because of my "customer loyalty" they waived the disposition fee. Except they apparently forgot and have called me, always after 7:30 at night, in July, August and now September asking for the payment. Thank god I have kept records of who I spoke with and the dates for all of these. I was shocked tonight, although by now I shouldn't be to get yet another call asking me to once again pay the disposition fee that had been waived multiple times already. When the rep looked into my files and saw the notes she changed her request saying she was collecting for property taxes. Feeling highly skeptical at this point I asked her to send it all to me in writing which she replied "Toyota/Lexus is not set up to do that." She actually got noticeably ruder at this point and began talking over me and even said "I'm just gonna note here that you're refusing to pay."

    I am completely shocked at this point. I would highly advise anyone thinking of using Toyota Financial Services to think again. There are many far better options out there. Again, the cars have all been exceptionally good. But the lack of professionalism, inability to handle simple billing problems and now refusal to provide me requested documentation in writing leads me to the conclusion that the best advice I can give anyone is to not let their problems become your problems. Steer clear or you may learn the hard way.

    Toyota Financial has terrible customer service. I have leased two cars from them for over 5 years. They are just terrible. When you call customer service and complain they do absolutely nothing about it. They don't even write it down, they fake listen. They don't tell you they will take care of it, or anything like that. They ask "is there anything else". I have requested change of titles because I move yearly. They ALWAYS give me hard time about it, and lie by saying they are going to send it to you, but they never do. They want Motor Vehicles to request it, but Motor Vehicles want them to send it. The battle starts then and the customer is in between.

    I called them early enough to update the address, and speed up the title change they started charging me increased amount of money from the day I called. I was still in the old state. When you ask to speak with superior they say "they are at the meeting" each time. And they keep you on hold for at least 40 minutes. They put you on hold w/o warning you too. You talk, but then you hear music. They are just terrible. I cannot wait to be done with them. I keep on warning everyone. Don't buy from them or lease.

    I WAS Toyota customer since 2010. I had three lease terms of 36 months. Two Orlando Florida 2010-2016 with the leasing of two Corolla 2011 and one Corolla 2013 one Rav4-2013 and one 2016-2019 in Toyota East Coast NJ leasing 2 Rav4 2017. Last June I went to the Toyota East Coast and ask for two new Rav4 2020. I was offered a price for lease $440 ($3000 down) and after a long battle with the dealer, it came to $390 ($3000 down). When I went to VW for VW Tiguan I was offered $275 ($3000 down) for two. I went Jeep of Teterboro and I was offered $219 ($3000 down) for a Compass and $319 ($3000 down) for a Grand Cherokee Laredo with all extras I asked for.

    When I returned back to Toyota East Coast and talked to the dealer nothing happened. I bought the Jeeps with three months in advance of my Toyota Financial lease and returned the old Toyota to the leaser. Here started the show. I was charged almost $1000 each returned car for leaving Toyota. They could not give me a competitive price and at the same time charge me for leaving the brand. DO NOT BUY/LEASE ANY CAR TOYOTA!

    Toyota Financial closed my account after a payoff was submitted (early on a Wednesday), processed my payment, then informed me through an automated message days later (Friday night of the same week, long after Toyota Financial was closed) that my bank payment was rejected. Since the account was closed, however, I have no way whatsoever to access my saved bank information to determine if there was a routing number error, account error, etc. Due to the late timing of the automated message, this means that Toyota Financial notified me of a serious account problem, but left me no way at all to attempt to correct it until their call center opens again after the weekend.

    Because the account was closed, I can't even submit support tickets--or, it may be better to say that it appears that I can submit them, but I can't view past tickets and it isn't clear if my submitted tickets are actually being processed. I have no doubt at all that Toyota Financial customer service will be very helpful once the call center opens again, but this review is to point out the problems with the online payment system as a whole. It is profoundly consumer unfriendly to put a system into place that notifies a customer of a problem, but then leaves the customer powerless to resolve the problem by denying access to bank, support, and most other information through account closure.

    I leased my first Lexus GS 300 the first year they came out, 1991. Since that time I have renewed my Lexus lease for a new GS 350 or RX 350 9 times, the last being a 2017 RX 350. Additionally, I began leasing Toyota Tundra Crew Cabs about 12 years ago and have leased 4 Tundra. That makes for at least 13 Toyota/Lexus leases since 1991. All lease payments paid on time, every time. In September of 2017, Hurricane Harvey flooded our home and we did not have flood insurance. After two years of repairs and losses, as well as a divorce this Spring, I fell behind in my payments for three months. All the accounts were frozen during the divorce proceedings and cash was scarce.

    Last night my 2017 leased Toyota Tundra was surreptitiously taken from my driveway. This morning I have learned I owe $34,000 on the lease, I do not have possession of the truck, they are going to "auction" my pristine truck with - ready - 17,800 miles after 3 years. The lease is up Sept 20, less than 30 days. I am told Toyota Financial has no leeway. Well, after 29 years of being an incredibly loyal customer, I do. I will never step foot or lease another Toyota product. 29 years of on-time lease payments and three months of late and I will lose a substantial amount of money when I can least afford it. Thank you, Toyota!!

    I made a large payment over the phone but it never posted. Well for nearly a week it didn't. I ended up going online and making a bank transfer to pay off the balance in full. The next day the first payment goes through so I call TFS and was told that the overpayment would be refunded to me through a check. So 2 weeks later I still didn't receive the refund so I call TFS and at first they didn't see the overpayment which was over 10k$. Was on hold and they finally found it. So my issue is. I had to call and request a refund for my money which I already had informed them about 2 weeks prior. I literally just loaned them over 10k and they had no plans to return it to me unless I complained about it and request my refund. If I owed them 10k they would charge me interest and now they had the intention to just keep my dough until I asked for it back. Shameful...

    Filed a complaint with the FCC. Thinking about hiring a lawyer. I'm shocked that there isn't a civil lawsuit already against these pigs! I have phone call recordings & paper trails that are screaming proof of errors on their behalf. Regardless of my fault in the matter, or any procrastination that was made on my end, none of the above is even close to measuring up, having been compared to the gross incompetence that was displayed by MULTIPLE reps. I asked for a hardship from my $320 payment in February of 2019 due to my fiance losing his job, among other unfortunate circumstances that are too private to share. It was granted, withdrawn, then refunded.

    To explain, a rep made me fess up to & re-live a horrible trauma in order to "qualify" me for the hardship. Having me in tears, she agreed to offer me the hardship for the current month, and also told me that I would qualify for the month of March as well if I needed it. What she didn't tell me at the time was that I apparently had an account with them online that I needed to log into and change a setting in order to prevent the payments from coming out anyway (I didn't find this out until around May.) That $ was all that I had to my name at the time. I found out the hard way that the $ was taken out anyway (on my birthday.)

    I wasn't able to celebrate my daughter's 8th birthday that weekend due to having to wait for them to reimburse the check. Also, my bank charged overdraft & transaction fees to my account in order to cover the payment. Toyota Financial agreed to pay for those fees, but the beginning of the damage was already done. Same thing happened in March of 2019, but we didn't get the check until May. More damage was done, and more fees from the bank were added. Come April 2019, they tried YET AGAIN to take MORE money from my account, which was still overdrawn BY THEM due to the previous month, adding to yet even MORE fees that were still owed to me from February & March (They only reimbursed me for about $30 of the almost $200 in fees, even after my bank sent them proof.)

    During the 3 months that Toyota Financial either took my money, tried to take my money, & accumulated for me a beautiful pile of fees, they had the nerve to say that they weren't responsible for any bank fees that were charged as a result of another company trying to withdrawal an automatic payment. I'm sorry, but not only did they not cover all of fees that THEY racked up, but let's remember that had they not taken the money from my account like they agreed not to in the 1st place, I would of been able to make those smaller payments that were due to other companies! I was at their mercy, despite plenty of proof of wrongdoings on their end! Eventually my bank account was forced to shut down.

    Before that happened, my mother deposited an emergency $50 into my savings to help us put food on the table since Toyota Financial was holding our check hostage, but my bank decided to eat that up before we could use it to pay for TF's fees. Unbelievable. Even more damage done. Oh, & CHECK this one out, the CHECK for March was never coming, BECAUSE NO ONE EVEN BOTHERED TO ISSUE IT! Then, the brilliant mind of a "supervisor" named Oz decided to try and refund me for the month of April, which would of been impossible considering the fact that there was no money that was taken for that month to begin with! But hey, at least they piled on those fees that month, right?

    Come May, like I said, I FINALLY got my check. I was then told that I didn't need to pay until June 2019. I. Was. Shocked. After all of the hell they put me through these last several months, waiting for money that they agreed not to take in the first place during a time when I didn't have 2 nickels to rub together, only for it to finally show up...& then to be told that it would need to be almost immediately returned back to them, just added further insult to injury.

    I was granted 3 full months (they added another month for their continued failures) for approved hardships. What I got was 3 months full of added on hardships due to their gross negligence! Then, they had the nerve to tell me that I used up my "3 month period", which just so happened to fall within the same time-frame as their mistakes! Apparently during hardship months, it's common practice for TF to hold people financially hostage, ruin a damn good credit score (mine was in the high 700's - now I'm afraid to even look at it), break-up relationships between folks & their credit union, & damage other client & business relationships!

    If that wasn't enough, things got way worse. Due to not having hardly any income at all to cover bills before the 2nd check came, I was forced to work less hours. It's impossible fill a gas tank when we are counting change, especially when I have to drive all over town (& sometimes out of town) for work. Eventually, I got laid off. My car insurance was one of those companies that withdrew their payment from my checking account automatically. Of course, with no $ in my account, Geico tried to pull the payment 3 times, & it resulted in fees. Inevitably, the policy was canceled, because I was waiting on the check from TF. I wasn't going to risk driving without insurance, but why does it seem like the bad things only happen to good people?

    Oz never called us back to discuss further terms regarding the "3 untouched months of hardship" that they promised us in the 1st place. We called him back several times because we were still owed fees, & his comment about having to make a payment in June made me nervous. The 3 months that would of qualified from there on out would of been May (check finally received & month was free of tampering after I went online & cancelled payment), June (bank account was closed but they tried to process payment again anyway), & July (same action in June happened in July - hopefully both months didn't tack on more fees). As soon as I got that check, I knew the battle wasn't over. We were tired of having to call back repeatedly, only to have to explain the whole story to a Level 1 Rep & then to hopefully to a Level 2 Rep, which rarely happened or went anywhere. Level 2 Rep's weren't calling back anymore.

    Funny thing is Toyota was blowing my phone up for payments, yet I figured someone would read the damn notes and know not to bug me until August 2019, unless it was about what they still owed me in fees. But no one investigated, & it turned out the joke was on me. Come middle of August, I was ready to make a payment. Since I knew I was legally right, I figured it would be no problem for TF to subtract what they owed me from the payment.

    Before I could act, I noticed early one morning that my car was missing from my gated community. I found out by calling the police that it was repossessed in the middle of the night. The second I called TF, their automated system recognized my # and hung up on me. We called from a different # that wasn't on record in order to bypass the system, and finally made it to a Level 1 Rep. She informed us that we couldn't use their service anymore. We demanded to talk to Oz since he knew our case. She then told us that he wasn't "available" for the day & that she would leave a message for him from us. She then proceeded to give us the # that we needed to call in order get my car back. My fiance tried calling the repo man (we got his # from the police), who was extremely rude, and refused to give my fiance even the cross-streets of his business, let alone any other pertinent information (even though he is listed on the account with TF).

    When we finally called the # that the rep at TF gave us, we were connected to a Level 1 Rep who heard the whole script from our mouths. She said the she could grant us an extension, but in order to get the car back, we had to pay June-August, as well as repo fees. When we contested this, & and told her that we had evidence, she transferred us to a "supervisor" Level 2 Rep. This lady was very condescending, & a real piece of work. She basically told me that since I had an account with TF, it was my responsibility to know how it worked. Therefore, the non-authorized payments were a direct result of myself at fault. BS! Even the supervisors at TS admitted after hearing the phone call recordings that it is the agent's job to explain, especially when most accounts are set up by the guy who is selling you the car while you sit across from him. He never explained that I could access it, or that it was even there to begin with.

    Next, she said I should be grateful to get 3 hardships (she could care less that they made things worse for me due to employee error). She often interrupted during my testimony, which is a scare tactic to try and throw me off my game so she can remain oblivious to the facts. I told her that I was still going to pursue justice, and reminded my fiance that we had already filed a complaint with the FCC & other legal parties. We have evidence recorded, as do they. Even my credit union saw the scam for what it was and issued paperwork in our defense in order to handle the fees.

    This lady, like the repo guy, didn't want to talk to my fiance either. She tried to tell me that I needed to pay for May-August, including repo fees, in order to get my car back (& I wouldn't qualify for an extension). When I mentioned that the lady just 5 minutes before her told me different, she told me she didn't care. I even mentioned that I had a recording of Oz claiming that I didn't owe until June, that went out the window too. I guess she won't mind that her call, as well as the call before her, were both recorded too.

    Cover your butts people! Otherwise, corporations & their sheep will walk all over you! Now starts a whole new game! I choose to break free from the havoc that they have unleashed when they chose to royally mess with my family's financial life and future. Had they done the right thing to begin with and had at least tried to amend their wrongs by starting with the bare minimum, they would of acknowledged that Feb-April were months full of no error on my behalf and would of made sure that those months would have be added on to the end of my contract as a complimentary gesture.

    Then, they should of finally granted me the 3 months that I was approved for "error-free" in the 1st place for the months of May, June, & July. Those 3 months would then pass freely, totally untouched. As a result of smooth sailing, and after having been able to finally catch my "financial breath", I would have issued my 1st payment, come the middle of August.

    They are the ONLY company I've ever dealt with that Intentionally OMITS on monthly invoices the date Late Fees are charged. So you don't know if it's after 10 or 15 days that they automatically charge their outrageous $32 late fee. Every car loan, mortgage, student loan, line of credit, credit cards, etc etc State on the invoice WHEN (how many days) a Late fee is charged. Not Toyota Finance as I'm sure they're making a Killing, big Profit on Late Fees. Seek Alternative financing if you don't want to be deceived!

    Toyota Financial Services is at the very best a completely incompetent and at worst a downright predatory lender. I have made three payments since May 2019 on time. According to TFS, they never got them, and are now demanding I pay over a THOUSAND DOLLARS upfront this month or they will repossess the car. I have sent them bank records and statements proving that the payments were made on time (early, even!) with TRACING ID NUMBERS. They still refuse to credit my account! I've spoken with the bank personally to make sure that the payments were made! This is unacceptable thievery on their part. If I could describe Toyota Financial Services in three words: AVOID! AVOID!

    We have leased two vehicles through Toyota, and at the second lease ending, we decided to purchase a car. We turned in our car, and it was in excellent condition. The car was very clean, and was 4,000 miles under the lease limit. Two weeks after we turned the car in we received notification that we owed $381 dollars for a disposition fee. The disposition fee was charged to help cover the costs to sell or dispose of the vehicle. We were told by our salesman, when we leased the second vehicle, that this fee would not be charged on our new lease. The salesman that told us this no longer works at the Toyota dealership, so there is no one to appeal to about our case.

    I know that the disposition fee is just another way for the company to get more money from the consumer, so that is why we tried to address it at the beginning of the lease. Toyota will waive the Disposition Fee if you lease another vehicle. They call it a Loyalty Waiver. After this experience, I will not purchase or lease another vehicle from Toyota, and I will warn others of this unnecessary disposition fee.

    Poor customer service experience has resulted in two missed payments and a negative impact on my credit rating. On account **. I fully understand now that enrollment into the automatic payment system takes several billing cycles to become active, however this stipulation was never explained to me when I opted to enroll in it. This oversight and poor customer service experience has resulted in two missed payments and a negative impact on my credit rating. At no time during the previous billing cycles was I informed that my payments were past due, nor that I was delinquent. When I spoke to customer service representatives about this oversight I was told that I was contacted but I have no phone records, electronic correspondence, or physical correspondence indicating such action was taken.

    When I spoke to one customer service representative the phone number she had for me was incorrect and Fred ** told me today that they have a wrong phone number on my file and Southeast Toyota Finance using same data base. The decision to opt into the automatic payment was an attempt to alleviate problems such as this from arising. The resulting lack of customer service in resolving this issue has left me with no other choice than to file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau citing the lack of customer outreach when it comes to billing problems. I have never had, nor currently have any issues making payments and have such made payments to rectify the problem.

    I would like all efforts to be made on my behalf to report that I did not miss payments due to the irresponsible behavior of not properly informing me that enrollment would take up to two billing cycles. I believe that all employees should be required to inform customers of this stipulation and inform them to check their account regularly prior to the automatic payment being activated.

I received a warning from police and notified by License Department that I should register my car in 30 days, if not - I will pay penalty $3000.

    So I contacted TFS again and explained what exactly I need. I was insured that everything will be sent in couple of days. Surprise - they faxed again bunch of statements and documents, but not information needed. I called TFS again and asked to overnight Original Title thru FedEx, I offered to pay for Title and delivery. It was shocking to hear that they do not have FedEx account and I need to ask DMV (government entity) for their FedEx account, of course it was a nonsense. I received temp license plate, which will expire in a month. No signs of documents. I want to be clear and I hope Toyota will take to consideration. I did my best to register the car I am leasing.

They are throwing responsibility on the GAP provider to reimburse me for the additional payments made after the date of loss.

    They are greedy and underhanded and would sooner ruin my credit than act like human beings with common sense and wait for the GAP provider to pay the claim (which they know is going to happen).

Since my bank was closed that day due to power failure I had to send in 13 money orders. After waiting very patiently for them to send me the title almost one year later they sent me a bill for $1,000. For three years straight I kept getting a monthly bill for $1,000 every time I called and nobody can tell me what this bill was for.

    I sent a certified letter arguing that the money I sent in was to the exact Penny of what I was told was the payoff amount. I got nowhere with Toyota Financial. They sent me to a collections agency where for the next year I was harassed too constantly. I got absolutely nowhere. I finally had to pay the extra $1,000 and to this day I just don't know what for just to get my title!!! When I called Toyota they said the loan was marked not paid in full, another term that affects my credit rating.

    After 5 months since I'd turned in my leased 2016 Toyota Corolla to the Toyota dealership in Culver City (CA). I received a phone call at my workplace from TFS. A TFS agent informed me that I owed $1333.55 to Toyota Financial without any other details. It felt very much like a scam, so I hung up and I called Toyota Financial myself and start questioning the customer representative. She located my account but still wasn't able to tell me what I was being charged for. She mentioned "repo fees", then "early termination fees", which didn't apply at ALL in my case.

    After some more searching and putting me on hold, she answered that it was a difference between an outstanding balance and the sale price. I explained to her that NO ONE EVER had mentioned any such a thing to me. Last I checked the TFS website stated that the only charge to expect on my End of term invoice after I turn in my vehicle are: Excess wear and use, Excess mileage, Disposition fee, Unpaid payments, Late fees, taxes or tolls, Early termination. ANY of those applied in my case... I am very disappointed and frustrated by my experience with TFS. I will fight those charge, as I believe they are totally incorrect.

    I got an a accident with a drunk driver is how it started. This happened on January 13 2018. I've set in multiple packets of paperwork to get my GAP claim started. Nothing has been done. They "havent received anything." They said the insurance company has to contact them. While this insurance company is not my own. The company name is ESIS claim. They are as bad if not worse than Toyota Financial. I've called them, emailed them. Nothing. So Toyota Financial stated until they contact them or they receive the paperwork they can't do anything. So my account is collecting interest on top of this claim. $1500 for a unpaid amount that I can't even get fixed.

    Don't ever use this company or buy the GAP insurance from them. Apparently you can get it cheaper elsewhere and not deal with this. Please if you take any advice never get a loan from this company. I wish I had looked before I shopped...total regret. Also you can't sign into your account online which would have made it easier to at least suck it up and make little payments at a time.

    I turned in my leased RAV on April 2, 2018 (and took a lease on a newer vehicle). Dealer told me to contact TFS for a tax rebate form. TFS CSR told me I needed cancellation receipt. I obtained that, and called TFS again. CSR told me to contact the dealer. Told her I had already done so. CSR finally agreed to transfer me to someone who deals with "End of Lease issues." Then she dropped the call. A few more back-and-forths and I finally reached the LES Department on July 17. Was told "process was starting." Checked several times with Tax Collector; nothing received there from TFS.

    Several months later, nothing, so I faxed the papers every day for several days, to the phone # I was given by the last CSR: **, giving my phone # and email address and asking someone to contact me. Nothing. I can support all the complaints in other reviews about bad service, incompetent employees, long wait times, etc. They all happened to me too.

    I bought a RAV4 in 2016 which I absolutely love. I financed it through Toyota Financial. Last month they started a new policy where any extra payment goes to interest only and if you want to have the payment applied to the principal balance you have to call them. You cannot call at the time that you make the payment. You have to remember to call them a few days later after the payment posts. There is usually a long wait on the phone to talk with a representative. This is incredibly inconvenient. This policy is to discourage customers to pay off their vehicles early. It is very unfair! I would not recommend Toyota Financial to anyone. Better to finance through a bank.

    I bought a new Toyota Corolla in Southern California. When I signed my contract they mentioned about a clause they have where you pay extra on your loan and if you have financial issues down the road they will give me a grace period until a certain time so I signed up for it and after I lost my job I called them and let them know what's happening. They stop letting me make payments on my vehicle. I would get a confirmation number that my payment was made then they would reject my payment so after thinking I'm current on my payment I get called about my gate is locked and a repo man is at my yard. Well in California they are suppose to send you a notice by mail so I thought there was a mistake so I call up this crooked company and let them know there is a repo guy at my front gate and they told me well I'm 4 months behind on my payments so I asked them where my money went.

    They told me it was sent back to my account. It wasn't there because I paid by money order. My money orders were returned to the Walmart where I paid at stating wrong account even though it was the right account. I asked them about that program I signed up for in the purchasing of the vehicle. They stated that's not valid in California but they explained that's why I paid an extra $5,000.00. Then they told me I no longer qualify for the vehicle because I don't have a job and that's why they will not accept payments from me unless I can prove a source of income. Best of all they are hitting my wife's credit with hard inquiries even though she was not on the loan or on the vehicle knocking her credit down 150 points. My advice avoid using this crooked company and never by a Toyota. It's not worth it.

Meanwhile, my father's registration is due on 12/18 & if I don’t get the docs, I have to pay his without evidence of ins, to not face late penalty, which means going to DMV twice! They made multiple mistakes: 1) mailed me partial docs, 2) mail docs to wrong (typo) address; 3) Finally FedEx the docs. I’ve been on top of it, but they work at a pace of a snail. Bottom line: Don’t lease a car. Don’t lease from Toyota. Think about what might happen if you die because whoever takes over the lease will go through a hellacious process with a group of jerks!

    The website is not user friendly at all. My #1 complaint is the inability to process a principal only payment. Toyota will state that you are paying to principal yet they reduce your next payment due. This does not actually save the consumer anything on interest. This is a very sneaky and underhanded way of Toyota gathering extra interest from customers. If you call their customer service line you will have to educate their employees each time on what truly is principal reduction and plan to spend at least 30 minutes per call. Finance with someone else if possible.

    I recently purchased a Toyota Avalon Limited Hybrid from a great dealership. I went with Toyota Financial for the financing because they offered a slightly better interest rate. When I filled out the contract I was told that payments would be twice monthly and begin on a specific date. I was also told that I would be contacted by Toyota Financial to set up the payments. After approximately three weeks with no contact I contacted the dealership and Toyota Financial. The phone prompt system asks for an account number which I had not received, as I had not yet been contacted by Toyota Financial. After numerous phone calls to customer service, being placed on hold for extended periods of time, and then being cut off after a certain period of time passed on hold, I finally found someone to look into my account. It turned out that my first payment was due in five (5) days.

    Fortunately I could make a one time $650 payment and not be late. I was told that the contract and payment information was sent to an old address. An address I never provided. Reoccurring payments can only be made monthly or weekly not every two weeks. I found the customer service staff unprofessional with unreliable information. Perhaps this is how business is conducted by Toyota Financial with the hope that the customer will not be able to track down the information on time thereby resulting in late fees. Fortunately this did not happen to me. I have financed many cars in the past. This is the worse experience I have had. I WOULD NOT recommend Toyota Financial to ANYONE. If it comes down to a small difference in interest rate, go with your bank or someone you can trust.

    Fraudulent charges, privacy breach, extortion and intimidation - My family and I've been having Toyotas since 1991 and hadn't had any problems until recently: on 11/13/2018, after 5 months since I'd turned in the leased previously-used 2013 Toyota Corolla to a dealership, I received a letter from Alltran Financial stating that I owed the money to Toyota Financial for 'one or more of the following charges: unpaid lease charges, mileage and/or wear and use over and above that allowed by your lease agreement', and no specifics.

    I called Toyota Financial about this, and they said they couldn't answer my questions and insisted that I talk to Alltran Financial this matter, and I was transferred over to Alltran, and Marie **, a rep, asked me for the last 4 digits of my SS#!! For identification purposes. First of all, Toyota Financial failed to protect my private info by disclosing my SS# to a 3rd party, and breached my privacy and confidentiality rights! Then, I refused to give out the last 4 numbers of my SS#, I told her that I had Alltran ID and the Account #, she said, no, asked for my home address.

    After I provided her W/ address, she located my accnt but still wasn't able to tell me what I was being charged for. After some more searching and putting me on hold, she answered that it was for wear and tear. I explained to her that in 2015 I had leased then-already-pre-owned 2013 Toyota, and had returned the car in exactly the same condition as I had gotten it in; there were some minor dent and scratches on the car by the time when I had leased it from the dealership.

    The Alltran's rep's response was: "Prove that you surrendered the vehicle in a good condition otherwise we'll report failure-to-pay to the credit agencies, you have just a few days left." Based on all above mentioned, I'm going to file a complaint w/ Better Business Bureau and with will report them to The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau at www.consumerfinance.gov/ and I will join a class action against Toyota Financial Services!

She explained to me that it's because the 10th this month of November 2018 (my due date is the 10th of every month) fell on a Saturday, they are closed, banks are closed, so my autopay was processed 2 days after.

    This does not make sense at all. But to Jaime, this made sense. She didn't even bother to say she'll report this to management. Rather, she said for me just to ignore the alerts from here on. She told me not to make this a big deal. Their system is not synchronized. Why would a customer enrolled in autopay get an alert of past due payment? Customer's fault?

    I bought a new 2012 Toyota Corolla, I made every single payment. I am a single mom, and I have worked my butt off to make sure I pay my bills on time. I purchased two additional vehicles from the dealership and always make my payments. I was very loyal and committed to using this company. The vehicles by the way are wonderful!! I was on my very last payment of the Corolla, I was so proud of myself, I typed in the amount I owed which was less than the quoted car payment because I always paid more than the minimum. Somehow, either there was a website error or I read the amount wrong, but I paid less than the final amount. No one contacted me until this Monday 11/3/2018 and we agreed it must have been some type of error being I have paid every payment why would I pay $143.00 too little for the $26,000 I had already paid.

    I went to pay my Capital One credit card today and saw an alert. Lo and behold, instead of taking my final payment, they reported me with a derogatory remark to the credit bureau!! Saying my loan was delinquent. I was shook. I work so hard to keep my credit the best I can and to have a company that I have loyally used and paid do this to me is just disgusting. I called them and requested they remove this remark. Due to a data error and I have been a good paying customer. The woman that I spoke to TOSHA was horrible to me and talked to me like I was a piece of crap. FOR $143 after paying $26 THOUSAND, she could have cared less and offered no help for me to take care of this.

    I am insulted to the point I would like to let everyone know that NO ONE deserves to be treated or talked to so badly, and the credit report has so much power over your life, and for a company to be able to report you so easily without even giving you the opportunity to figure it out and fix the situation should be criminal. It is taking advantage of that very power. If I was 2 months late or even 6 months, I could see making a hit on your lifeline of a credit score. But $143.00 a few weeks late, after 6 years of on time payments?

    A good company, good people would have contacted me to find out if something went wrong before pressing the NUKE button on my next 7 years. I am disgusted and will be transferring my other two loans to a different bank, I will never purchase anything related to Toyota Financial. I have nothing but unkind remarks for their integrity and character. And the girl TOSHA that degraded me in every possible way, hope to god you never need assistance from anyone.

I called and was told to request a duplicate title from the previous state DMV through my new DMV. Submit paperwork and receive notice a few months later through new state's DMV that it can't be processed without the original title being requested and processed by the lienholder. Call old DMV and was told that TFS needs to request the original title first before I can ask for a duplicate. Call TFS ask them to request title and they say ok, and I get a repeat notice that I paid off my lien in the mail, which I explicitly said is not what I needed. And still no title. Try all over again by go through DMV of both states. I cannot request a duplicate title without the original title number, but TFS can fill out the form and request it for me.

    Call TFS again. Get the runaround and then was told they see it was never requested but they'll take care of it and send me the title. It's a year later, and I've since moved to a new address within same city. Try again. Same information provided: someone messed up but I'll take care of it. Verify with old state DMV still no title ever requested by TFS. I still have one free copy available to print, as long as TFS requests it. Call TFS back, and they promise to request it and get the right information later. 2 months later, same notice of lien paid in full provided. Try one more time, call and get that someone will fax me the information, not mail it. Hang up to verify the fax number, and call back TFS. But this time the person says original title was mailed out in Sept 2015 and it's not their problem if the mail lost it.

    Excuse me, how did the title information change somehow in your system in months since I've been trying to fix this issue, and how did that information amazingly get updated in the 10 minutes it took for me to call back. It's now 3 years, and I'm still waiting for title information of any sort, so that I can request a duplicate title of the original DMV to transfer to the state I've been living since before I paid off the loan. Let's just say that before I just thought they were incompetent. Now I think they are blatant liars who reverse date and falsify information. Buyer beware if they go into an agreement with TFS and expect prompt and trustworthy service once you have paid in full.

    Horrible experience, with Toyota Financial Services. The European lady that answered the phone, sounded like she was having another conversation with another person, because she was giggling or drunk when she picked up the phone. And I had to repeat myself over and over what she was asking. She got done verifying me. I asked for my account number, since they never sent me a statement and she wanted me to provide my bank account number or sent my payment Western Union. I told her I wanted to make my payment online. She asked additional questions such as my job where did I work at, after verifying and asking me at least 4 questions already. She asked for the dealer where I got the vehicle and finance which I provided and she just kept going.

    I requested her manager, sure enough it was not rocket science to get my account number. No, I did not get an apology for their poor customer service. 1 not sending me at least my first statement, or sending it late. It is my due date for my payment and I'm still waiting for the statement. And without an account number can't make a payment. And yes, the dealer where I got the vehicle at did not help at all. They said call Toyota Financial Services. I regret my Toyota purchase. Should have purchase a Chevy, or Ford. Really!

    Toyota has to have some of the most untrained employees I have ever had to encounter. I called for a simple refund. That call turned into 6 more phone calls, where they tried to keep my money without my knowledge, chose not to honor the payment arrangement they encouraged me to set up with their representative. The to send the very refund via paper, and sent it somewhere else. Every time I called I received new information, received different information. I would have figured that refunding someone was company policy 101, should have learned policy, rules in their first few weeks of training as well as phone presence.

    I will be contacting every resource or reporting agency I find in relations to TFS. I followed step by step instructions to Payoff my loan/lien on my 2015 Tacoma. I specifically opted to pay off my loan through their online instructed option that would require them by law to release my lien to the VA DMV within 1-2 business days and restrict them from "holding" it for the "standard 10 days"... This option would "expedite" the title/lien release. To do so the payoff amount had to mailed "overnight" via CERTIFIED CASHIERS CHECK to their Chicago, Illinois address vs the "Carol stream" address. I did exactly as so. I included the authorization form to release the title/lien release authorization form I printed from their website. I paid $40+ to utilize overnight shipping services. They received and cashed my cashier's check as confirmed via bank and TFS via my initial inquiry.

    I was told that I would receive an email "receipt" or "letter" stating my loan was paid in full and the lien was released. They told me to wait 2-3 days for email to arrive "because it is encrypted". Ok no problem. They IMMEDIATELY closed my account. HOWEVER... I have now 2 weeks later have not received an email... a letter in the mail...a receipt...my title...nothing. The DMV has NO record of lien release or payoff. I have called throughout this 2 weeks period 11 times. Each time speaking with someone different and receiving different and contradicting answers or "resolutions" to my questions and concerns. I have been told by 3 different "supervisors" that due to my "frustrations" and "lack of satisfaction" that my account would be "expedited" and marked for "emergency release". Still nothing.

    I even hung up the call today after that resolution was offered to me and called back immediately and spoke to someone else who said my check was not yet even sent for processing. That they would do it now and "contact me on Monday" that I would receive an email upon end of call indicating that it was indeed in the "processing" phase now. No email 5 hours later. I will now have to wait 2-3 days to even contact another worthless representative as its now Friday evening. I took pictures and screenshots and downloaded all info and instructions TFS provided from the beginning of my nightmare of this payoff process.

    I will find a reputable and legitimate resource via my long trusted and maintained family lawyer. I will never finance with TFS again. I will advise AGAINST TFS to everyone I know in the business of researching a vehicle loan or lease option. They will continue to receive my bidaily or sometimes tridaily phone calls and inquiry on my account until I receive documents I am entitled to by law to have received already.

    We purchased our 2014 Camry Hybrid at the end of our lease in 2016. At the end of 2017 we needed to sell it and placed ads on various sites to sell the car. The buyer that chose to buy the car was from another state and claimed to be a dealer. He said that he would pay our loan off in full through TFS and any overage of such payment would then come from TSF to us. This was at the end of January 2018. TFS does not do Wire Transfers and instructed us to have the buyer send them a certified check DIRECTLY. Which he did. TFS told us via several phone calls that the check received directly from the buyer was received and processed. They said that it was OK to turn the car over to the buyer. We waited at least a week (due to weather conditions) to allow the buyer to pick up the car from our home address.

    The day he was to pick up the car February 12th, I once again called TFS and asked them about the processing of the title etc. I was assured again that day that all was fine, our account was closed (and it was closed on the TFS website as well). TFS said that they were mailing the title directly to the new owner and we had nothing more to do for the account, that it was closed and paid in full. They said it was OK to leave the tags on the car and allow the buyer to take it. The buyer sent a representative to our home and drove off with the car that night.

    The morning of February 14th 2018 we received a call from TFS. They told us that the check THEY RECEIVED AND PROCESSED WEEKS BEFORE, was not good and that we needed to contact the buyer and have him send a new check. We asked about having him WIRE money, again NO they don’t accept WIRES. After several calls to the buyer we realize the car has been STOLEN. We made calls to the sheriff and to TFS, talked with their Fraud department, made all of the proper reports that we could. Their fraud department finally told us that the check they received was fake and therefore they (TFS) have process problems. – How is this OUR FAULT?

    On February 15th we RECEIVED A CHECK FROM TOYOTA FOR THE OVERPAYMENT, A COPY OF OUR INSTALLMENT CONTRACT MARKED “PAID IN FULL” and then another letter stating to cancel all of our insurances and our account was closed… then a small disclaimer sentence, “pending final accounting cleared”. All of that paperwork was dated February 13th.

    TFS agreed to suspend a payment while we reported to our Insurance company the theft. A week later the insurance company denied our claim saying that it was fraud of a sale agreement and therefore we were not covered. – Thanks Allstate, You are fired too! Toyota then immediately re-opened our closed account, started harassing us for payment, reported to the credit bureaus etc and basically told us we were ** out of Luck.

    Beginning of April we receive a call from a detective in another state that our car had been recovered and that we need to pay to get it out of impound. We contacted a local Atty and were told to go get the car and that TFS could not re-open a closed account. Days off from work and hundreds of dollars later to travel multiple states and get the car we had it back. To top it off, the car was recovered from an old man that paid 8K for our car before discovering it was stolen. (We want to help him too, as his insurance won’t cover him either.) We sent letters to Toyota explaining our side and that we needed a resolution. The only resolution was to pay off all that was in arrears and basically kiss their butt.

    Our attorney said not to pay anything as that would be admitting to the debt owed, so we have not paid Toyota and they have not responded in any way to help us. Just pay up. As of May we were 2 months behind (they did grant us 1 month of non payment in the beginning). They sent a letter for demand, but had not said anything about repossession, and as far as TFS knew we had not recovered the car.

    June 14th a repossession truck was in my driveway to take the car. No warning, nothing. I just happened to be taking the car somewhere as he arrived and I left. This REPO man then chased me for 45 minutes up and down country roads while I tried to get in touch with my attorney. He could have caused me to have an accident. Our attorney directed me to put the car away under lock and key (once the guy stopped chasing me) and we did.

    We have a gate at the end of our driveway which we close as we have horses that are out on the property to graze at night. This Repo man opened our gate between midnight and 1 am to come on the property and get the car. He did not find it and upon leaving he left my gate open leaving our horses at risk. We are seeking new legal counsel at this point since our current atty is not confident that we can sue TFS since we had a letter written (after the fact of being told several times by TFS to release the car) with the one sentence that said what it did about final accounting. Not to mention TFS sent us a check as well for the overage of payment, which as good people we never cashed. Anyone out there want to team up for a class action lawsuit?

Still says I did not pay the next few days. Customer Service says the payment needs to be processed? They have all of my bank info and I have the truck in my driveway. This is 2018 I don't get it? I could of purchased a TV at Amazon from a stranger and received instant credit there and had the TV shipped before TFS would give me credit for a bank transfer payment.

    I asked what if the payment did not go through now since it says it was not paid. How would I know and crickets. I cancelled the first payment and made another payment since I was not getting credit for the first one. So one payment cancelled and another payment made, guess what I have 2 payments taken out now after getting a cancellation verification notice on one of them days before. After a week of messing with this disaster of a site I still have no clue when or what amount they will take out the next time.

    I purchased a new, 2014 Corolla on 12/13/13. Price of the car, with taxes, fees, etc. came to $18,916.35. I put $4000 down bringing the total to $14,916.35, however, stupid me took out the "extended warranty" for an additional $1,563.13. The contract says BALANCE DUE ON DELIVERY: $16,479.48. This total, as explained to me by Priority Toyota's financial person, is supposed to be the TOTAL amount of my $288.36 monthly payments for the five years I had to pay. Today, I have paid 53 payments or $15,283. 08 which leaves the balance of $1,196.40. I want to pay off the car.

    It took 10 CALLS to my dealer (unanswered when they promised to have someone call me to discuss) and several calls to TFS to even GET a person to speak to me. Today, they're telling me the payoff amount is $2,290.72. WHY? I asked the finance person "So, if I go online, in my bank account, and pay the next 7 payments I owe, it will be paid off?" She replied "Yes". I explained that the total of my last 7 payments is only $1,196.40. So why are they charging me $2.290.72? She said, "well, you're actually paying 61 months of payments because you drove the car for half a month before your first payment was due (on January 3rd 2014) so the total is, actually, $17, 589.96." WTH? First off, they advertised a "FREE" month when I bought the car AND, my contract CLEARLY STATES: BALANCE DUE AT DELIVERY: $16,479.48. WTH???

    I am VERY disappointed with Toyota . I have never missed a payment, yet, the guy I spoke to at Toyota Financial Services last night informed me that he sees a "missing" payment from WAY BACK in October of 2016. I told him that wasn't possible because my bank automatically takes it out of my account every month and, if I HAD missed a payment, Toyota would have, certainly, notified me of it. Both he, and the woman at my dealership, told me there were NO flags for missed payments in my account history. I'm not sure what is going on but this is ridiculous. I am VERY unhappy. IRONICALLY, when you call TFS, the message says "Some of our departments may be closed as part of our ongoing commitment to quality" WTF??? Yep, call them, it actually says that!

    Updated on 06/05/2018: Today, TFS faxes me a copy of a "contract" I, supposedly, signed (which I have never seen and did not possess-- honestly) which states: Apr 1.90%. Finance charge (the dollar amount the credit will cost you) $822.12. Amount financed: $16,479.48 total of payments (the amount you will have paid after you have made all payments as scheduled) $17,301.60. Total sale price (total cost of y our purchase on credit, including down payment of $4000): $21,301.00. First of all 1.9% of $16,479.00 is $313.11-- not $822.12. Second, if the total price I pay is $17,301.60, how the hell can the total purchase price be $21,301.00??? Because the ** added my down payment instead of subtracting it and, now, they're making me pay it again!!! My signed contract says: balance due upon delivery: $16,479.48 (after I paid my 4k down) and that is all they're getting from me! I'm suing them!

    Returned my 2nd of 3 leases from TFS and was charged for bogus additional charges for the 2nd time. The 1st time the dealer took care of it and said that happens all the time which I thought was strange. This time they are charging me for damage that they say was done to the vehicle to the tune of $750.00. The vehicle I turned in was completely fine and I was actually thinking of purchasing it. The dealer looked it over and said nothing. The vehicle was inspected by TFS 2 days after I dropped it off so if something was done to it or if someone else drove it and damaged it, I really don't think I should be responsible for this damage or have to prove it wasn't me that did it.

    They gave me a website to review pictures of the damage that didn't work and got a message to contact TFS. So, I really don't even know if it is my car that the pictures are of. This may not be a lot of money to some but it is to me for something I didn't even do. If they do this to everyone that leases and it is not questioned, because it is under the cost of what it would be to retain an attorney, they win and we pay. I love the dealer I deal with and Toyota is a great product but I will NEVER lease another Toyota.

    I returned a leased vehicle back to Toyota on 03/13/17. I received a bill charging me for the disposition fee, sales tax and property tax (this was prorated for the entire year). I paid the full amount for the disposition fee as well as the sales tax, but I called & asked on how to move forward with the property tax as I returned the car mid-March and was being charged through December. I was advised to fax over proof of the cancelled plates and that this would go through the abatement process. I did exactly that, and verified with TFS that they received all the necessary paperwork, and was told they had.

    Throughout the next couple of months, I kept receiving a bill showing me the exact same amount, and I continued to follow up with TFS on the abatement process. In August/Sept when I made my monthly call to Toyota regarding my bill, I was advised that I did not own any balance, and was actually due a credit from a while back. I was informed that they would look into why the credit had not been issued.

    About a week or two later, I received a letter in the mail from a collection agency (Central Credit Services LLC) stating that account was now placed with them. As you can imagine, I was not pleased as I had been told only a week or two earlier that I was due a credit, and was now being contacted by a collection agency. I contacted Toyota as to why this was done, and was told that 1.) Could not see the credit that the previous person informed me of 2.) This was sent to the collection agency in error as it was considering an "open/pending" case. I got an apology, but was told there was basically nothing they could do now that it was with the collection agency.

    I then contacted the collection agency and explained the entire situation, and they told me they would continue to follow up with Toyota regarding the abatement process, and would notify me once they had received the adjusted amount. I continued to get the same bill every month, and continued to follow up with both the collection agency and Toyota, but seemed to get transferred back and forth between the two, and no one was able to provide me with any type of update.

    This past week, I received a letter in the mail stating TFS forwarded my account to a SECOND collection agency. Again, I called Toyota (was not able get through - they have an absurdly long wait time), and also called this new collection agency and AGAIN, explained the entire situation. The individual I spoke to suggested that I follow up with the town, which I had been told by Toyota and the previous agency not to bother with. This was perhaps the biggest error on my part. I was advised by the town that they had received my paperwork for the abatement process on 5/19/17 and they issued a refund to Toyota on 6/27/17.

    It has now been OVER a year since I returned this leased vehicle, and we are closely approaching 1 year to when the refund was issued. I have made numerous calls to both TFS and the collection agencies. I'm not sure how I've spoken to as many people as I have, and no one has been able to give me an answer. It appears that Toyota actually owes me a credit based on the refund amount. This is completely unacceptable as to why it has taken this long (and is still not resolved).

    I leased a Toyota and turned in the vehicle about 9 mo ago. I received a letter from a debt collector in the mail earlier this week stating that I owed TFS an additional $412. I already paid the $700+ they made me pay upon turning the vehicle in, and I have no idea where this $412 amount came from. I never once received a letter from TFS stating that I owed them additional money, so you can imagine my complete shock upon receiving a letter from a (sketchy) debt collector. I called TFS (after multiple phone calls and many long, long wait times), but they said that my account has been closed and is being handled by their "business partner" and they are unable to answer even a question as simple as why do I owe them additional money and if they even sent me additional notices stating that I owed them the money, because I did not receive any.

    I even spoke with a "supervisor" at TFS, but she just gave me the same runaround and said that I could speak with their debt collector business partner about this. When I finally got a hold of the debt collector company, who also appears to never be available to talk to except during very restricted hours, they said that they saw the $700+ check that I wrote to TFS and didn't understand where the $412 came from either, and they sent an inquiry to Toyota before going after me for the money.

    So if the debt collector doesn't know why I owe the money, and TFS won't answer any of my questions, how am I supposed to understand exactly what I am paying for? So far this has been a huge headache and I will NEVER do business with Toyota Financial Services again. They clean their hands of the issue once they turn it over to a debt collector, and I'm currently unable to get answers from ANYONE. TFS should be ashamed at how they run their so-called "business."

Next they told me I hadn't paid my March 2018 lease payment. Each time they called, I was on cell in the car with no access to my accounts.

    Like an idiot, I actually believed them, went home, and sent money from my checking account BillPay. Now, doing month-end accounting, I see TFS DID automatically withdraw the March payment they told me I missed. So...either their system is completely screwed up (most likely) or they've been hacked. Either way, I ended up paying them an extra $927 this month. Fortunately, I did not pay via the calls (in case it was a hack.). Either way, unbelievable for a company this size and of this reputation. We've had three Toyotas, but I'm done. Once this one is over, we're out of this bizarre financial set-up. DO NOT USE TFS.

    We purchased a car at the end of October 2017, but had an issue insuring it due to an error with the DMV (in California, you can wait up to 30 days to insure a new vehicle). While working on the error with the DMV, the car was stolen and then totaled at the end of November. We filed a GAP claim, and finally, after several times of submitting and resubmitting the same documents along with almost daily phone calls they finally resolved the issue at the end of February. Then, in March, Toyota Financial gets notified by the tow yard that they needed to pay 900 dollars in storage fees and pick up the car or let it go to auction at the end of March.

    In a separate matter, because GAP took so long to pay out on the claim, they also made a separate payment for the car payment for January. Gave us an itemized breakdown of the GAP payment showing this. Toyota didn't apply it and showed a 30 day late on my credit report. So in the process of calling them about correcting the issue, Toyota Financial told me that they are going to file a "Repossession" on our credit reports because they had to pick the car up. The car has been labeled as a "Total Loss" per the DMV and there is no value to the car. Plus the DMV states that we were no longer legally responsible for the car since the beginning of March. Toyota says that does not matter. But the repo department us in Arizona and here in California, state business laws and vehicle code laws say otherwise. So now the State Oversight committee is looking into it and now may penalize Toyota for improper business practices. Score one for the little man.

No words can describe my anger and dissatisfaction with this company after purchasing 2 new cars!

    A salesman in Toyota of Lewisville TX told us that Care extra packages could have been taken from the original contract. We went back to the dealer to remove it, they did but the monthly payments did not changed (we got a $3800 refunded to the principal). We called Toyota Financial Services later on to inform them of this. They said the monthly won't change. OK send the wreck to pick up the car. We can’t afford the payment anymore... A representative OFFERED one time only deal, to lower the payment, she got an approval from her manager. We started making the NEW payment amount but Financial services kept on calling that they were sorry that no one can make such deal. They sent a letter notifying that the vehicle is going to get repossessed... Should I try and call them again, get an attorney? If anyone can advise me what to do in TX I will highly appreciate the help, thanks.

When I called to find out, the representative did not understand my question. I don't think she understood English that well.

Why couldn’t I be given everything needed upfront or even after my lien holder sent them the first 7 or 8 things requested numerous times! They also gave me the wrong form but waited 6 weeks to tell me! If I hadn’t kept bugging them nothing would be getting done, in the meantime I’m still making car payments!

    I had leased a car from Toyota in 2014, at the end of lease I moved to a different city and was returning car there. At the time of pre-inspection I did not had additional key and manuals because they were in my house in a different city. I asked the inspection guy, "Should we reschedule" and he said just make sure to return the keys along with the car. I had the keys and manual shipped to me before I returned the car and return the car with everything.

    Later on I got a bill for some remaining balance that included missing car keys and manual. I called Toyota and they said we will figure it out. Now after couple of years I got calls from collection company for $410. Called Toyota and they are saying that, "It doesn't matter if you return the keys or not. Our pre-inspection says you did not had key at pre-inspection." Also they said that they usually do post inspection which for whatever reason they did not do in my case (their problem). After calling multiple times they are saying that, "There is nothing we can do and you have to pay even though we did not do post-inspection." I just don't understand that if they did not do any post-inspection, or their inspection guy gave wrong information or dealer did not log any information then how is it my problem. And for them it did not matter that you return the actual physical key and manual but what it matter is you did not had it at inspection.

    I thought Toyota is good company with good customer support but after talk so long with them I realize this is another big company who don't care about customer experience or their satisfaction. As soon as you are done doing business with them they lose any interest in solving your problem. That will be my last deal with Toyota and will try my best to make others aware of the way they handle their customer.

I have been chasing Toyota for over 2 MONTHS NOW to get my abatement check. Horrific customer service, called today again for a checkup and they stated they needed another 2-3 weeks to send payment and separate it from another payment sent to them. Umm, I don't think so - there should only be one check from my town for the abatement, nice try. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? And your customer service reps really lack tact and professionalism.

    I purchased my 2015 Toyota Highlander back towards the end of March 2015. At the time I also had another Toyota RAV4. I have been dealing with nothing but stress with this company when it comes to my car payments. When purchasing the car, my payments were due per contract on the 25th of every month, since I had a different date for the RAV4 payments I asked them to change the due dates to the end of every month (this was back in 2015) so I can both cars together the same dates. I filled out forms and it was supposed to be done.

    It's been 3 years now. My lease is about to end and since 2015 they made the error of changing my payment dates to the 15th of every month (which I was not aware of until I started seeing late fees) not the 30th and it has made me showing as late to my payments. On top of it I've been charged with late fees (which I paid). This has been an on going matter that still yet today has not been fixed, and they admitted to making this mistake and still cannot figure out a way to fix it.

    Now my credit score and report has been affected due to Toyota Financial's mistakes which I have been trying to get fixed and cannot. Horrible horrible teamwork with this company and also notes are never kept on file because every time I spoke with someone I had to repeat the story over and over. They should have things on file and they don't. Just like they say calls are recorded. Not true because if they were then they shouldn't be asking me the same questions over and over.

    Absolute painful. Every month I have an issue. I am never able to simply log in and send a payment without a certain amount of delays. Every time I have to call into customer support. Reset my password. Every time. It’s ridiculous. So I call and wait to speak to personal. Explain my issue which never gets addressed or fixed even though they mention your phone call may be monitored or recorded. How is it that Toyota can make such a nice dependable vehicle yet their TFS is nowhere near the quality of their automobiles. It is extremely upsetting that every month I have to call to make a payment. I’d like some sincere return feedback regarding this issue. I love my Tacoma but absolutely hate TFS.

    Seriously my latest password is: **. It’s extremely disheartening for me every time when my payment is due. I feel like just dropping my vehicle off with the keys and say keep it. Because it’s not worth the headache. I’ve had my Tacoma about 3 years. I’m not a millennial. Is anything or anyone doing something to fix this epidemic. I informed the person helping me that I was sorry she had to hear me rant and how sad it felt to explain how troubling it is to go through this every month. I even stated, "Yes. I said you hear about all the shootings killings in our country." And I told her I was concerned that these problems might create a scenario of some disastrous proportions because of this log in process being so complicated that I can just see someone snapping.

    Yeah it’s that bad that you have a system and it doesn’t work. For what it’s worth everyone in my family drives a Toyota. No other vehicle. Please know I hate your TFS and it hurts to know nothing's been done to rectify the problem. Not sure who the designer of your website is but they need to be informed. I think they should be replaced and have them take their format design with them on their way out the door. TFS sucks. I am a concerned consumer. No threat is intended only trying to make a point. 3 years is far too long for this to continue and that NOTHING has been done. It almost seems that TFS doesn’t care. Yet I know all employees have quotas to achieve but somehow TFS keeps on creating the nightmare. Anyway thanks for another headache.

    I purchased a 2018 Toyota Corolla about six months ago and financed it through Toyota Financial Services. I had some extra cash and wanted to make a payment toward the principal, to reduce my future interest payments. The payment forms do not allow us consumers to specify payments only to principal. That's odd, as many installment and mortgage loans do that. So I called and made a $2,000 payment toward the principal over the phone, through a bank transfer. The representative said it would applied to principal. I made sure of that. Of course, two months later I learn that the payment was not made exclusive to principal. Some of it was used to pay interest. I got the run around from one representative at Toyota.

    The second explained how their policies work. In order to make a principal payment, you have to mail a check to separate PO box and tell them you want it applied just to principal. Now why would a finance company do that? You know why -- because they want customers to pay as much of the interest as possible. Of course, the representative pooh-poohed that theory. Then why doesn't Toyota allow consumers to pay principal payments on their monthly statements? I love my car, but now I feel like Toyota is just like any other greedy capitalist organization. What is happening in America?

    I leased a Toyota Rav4 for three years. When my lease termination date got close, I followed all the instructions provided by SE Toyota Finance. I made my last payment via auto withdrawal, got a glowing review on my inspection, and turned in my lease to a verified SE Toyota dealership. At the dealership, I asked if I needed to sign anything or do anything further. They assured me that everything was "good-to-go." After I turn in the vehicle, I mailed the odometer statement to SE Toyota Finance to verify my return.

    A month later, I receive a bill in the mail for an additional lease payment. I call SE Toyota Finance and waited on hold for 30 minutes, 2 hours, 1.5 hours, and then 45 minutes on separate occasions before I talked to a human being. They then inform me that they used the date they received my odometer statement in the mail as the date of my car return. I inform them that my car was returned the month previous and they told me that there is no way to verify this (blamed the dealership). They tell me my options are: 1) pay the bill (for a month I didn't have the car); or 2) it will be reported to the credit bureau. I was an exemplary leasee. I always made my payments on time via automatic withdrawal. I returned the car in perfect condition and 3000 miles under my mileage allowance. I expected more from this company. Is it impossible for a good customer to expect good customer service? I will never do business with SE Toyota Finance again.

We were behind and they kept sending us delinquent notices and then repossessed our car only after two payments behind on the due date of the second payment. This is the worst company in the most ridiculous financial service I've ever financed a vehicle through and would never use their services again. Out of all the money that we have paid them. And on top of that their finance charges are ridiculous. If you are late then your entire payment you can kiss goodbye cause it will go to their interest charge.

Any extra amount paid would go towards the next month's payment. I spoke to someone at TFS and was told that I would have to mail the payment to a different address to make a payment on principal.

The DMV isn't going to care that you are too lazy or too stupid to do your job. I asked for a manager and she said they would have one call me.

When I asked to speak to his manager he said the manager was not available, then he said the manager was off. After I told him I want to speak to his manager's manager he transferred me to some lady I do not even think was a manager because she was not professional at all either and made me feel like my well earned money should have been spent on a Honda or maybe a Chevy. They refused to answer a simple question and make me feel like they don't care about customers after they bought. I am disappointed in Toyota.

    I had to call the dealership I bought it from to get the answer and the salesperson was nice enough to find it for me. Only if Toyota Financial Services was as nice and happy to have customers like the dealership is maybe they would be doing better. I do not think I will buy another Toyota after this.

    What I mean is that once an error is recorded in the bits and bites of the Toyota Financial Services (TFS) machine, it will hound you and bill you and chew on your financial standing until the mistake is corrected by a concerned human being, and even then it could take months to stop this pest. Here's my story. May it be of some use to you: I purchase a 24 month lease on a 2016 Camry LE Hybrid in October 2015. The Camry was pre-inspected by a TFS agent around October 20, 2017 and returned it to the dealership of origin on October 30, 2017, the last day of the lease. In mid-November I received a voicemail message from TFS, which I ignored thinking it was a business offer similar to those I received during the Summer.

    On Dec. 6, another voicemail came, to which I did respond. BTW, TFS has a 2 minute greeting after which they put you on hold for 20 minutes or more - that's right. I learned that, to their knowledge the car was not returned and they would hold me responsible. I told the agent when and where the car was returned. On Dec. 9, the dealership sales manager owned up to the mistake, apologized, and assured me that the mistake was corrected. On Dec. 14, I received a threatening letter from TFS warning that they would resort to "legal rights and remedies" if I did not contact them. It's much easier to reach a sales manager at the dealership, who has a direct number to TFS. I phoned him. He contacted TFS, further assured me that the error was fixed, and added that it takes time to process changes in a giant financial system like TFS.

    On Dec. 19, an invoice arrived for a 26th payment on a 24 month lease. It turns out, I had already made a 25th payment in mid November, mistakenly thinking that I had miscounted. TFS, now owes me $316.48 for the 25th payment and expects another payment of $316.48 from me. On Dec. 20th, I spoke with the Administration manager at the dealership. She seems like an honest and caring person. I hope she can help. We'll see. It still falls to a CARING and HONEST individual at TFS to refund what's owed to me. Meanwhile, I am monitoring my credit score.

    The Toyota dealership made an error of omission, when they did not start the "Grounding Process" for the vehicle. That's on them and they understand their responsibility to compensate me for any extraordinary costs that result from their error. TFS, on the other hand, is a machine that processes bills, mail lists, call lists, voice messages, and legal remedies. Just remember, a return call to TFS will cost you half an hour of your life, and a finance deal with TFS could cost you enough worry and annoyance to write a poor review.

I called on Thursday and spoke to a rep. who told me my paperwork was in a Topeka post office and was delivered on the 4th of December to that post office. He gave me a tracking number and I called the post office (waited on hold for over an hour) and the post office told me that the tracking number I was given was for a package that was going to someone else and at a different address entirely. 

    I verified the number several times with the post office and they even pulled up a picture of the package and said it did not have my name or address on it. They said it was going to some address on Harrison Ave. So, I called Toyota Financial back and they verified that I did have the correct tracking number and after about 45 minutes on the phone I mentioned to him that I sent in my buyout paperwork with my info on it, but the check was from my Credit Union. He then told me that my paperwork was sent to a 3rd party, but didn't seem to know who. 

    My Credit Union also does not have a location on Harrison Ave. either so I am not sure who my paperwork was sent to. I insisted that my paperwork was overnighted to me at that point and after MUCH difficulty the rep FINALLY was able to get ahold of a supervisor (not really sure if he did) and assured me that it would be overnighted to me.

I'm really not sure what kind of business you are running if there are never any supervisors available to speak to, but anyway... He transferred me to your "resolution specialist" who then couldn't help me either and said he was going to get in touch with whomever actually sent my original paperwork. He told me that he was going to have my paperwork overnighted, but wasn't sure if it would be sent out today or not and said he would call me back and leave a detailed message on my phone updating me. I did not receive a callback. At this point, my tags have been expired since the 30th of November, I can't drive my new car, I am accruing additional penalty fees for tagging my vehicle late every day that it is late, I have spent hours on the phone with your company, and I am FED UP. 

    I also have to drive my husbands vehicle and he is currently disabled to a degree from a recent surgery and his vehicle is the only vehicle his scooter fits in. So, that is also another inconvenience as we are having to juggle and find rides, etc. I have spent thousands of dollars with your company and the least you can do is overnight my paperwork. I mean it can't be that difficult seeing that Kansas is an electronic state and you don't actually have to send me my title, just my lien release so that I can get my title and tag my car. Hopefully, one of you actually give a damn and actually have the authority and ability to get this done ASAP because I am tired of waiting and NEED my paperwork!

    WARNING - Do not pay your car loan in advance if you have car loan with Toyota Financial Services (TFS). Here's my experience. My payment is due every 28th of each month. I set up my account in auto pay every 28th of each month. One time, I made a payment few days before the 28th. Guess what? When the calendar reaches the 28th day, TFS charged my account once again. I end up making 2 payments in one month. It drew my bank account negative and have to pay my bank overdraft fee and my other bills because past due because my available fund was taken out by TFS. IT WAS A NIGHTMARE!

    I have brought this matter to TFS attention but to no avail. They have a very poor IT department and doesn't know how to fix this type of payment transaction. TFS shouldn't be allowed to be in this type of business. THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY'RE DOING. Someone needs to investigate and address this problem at once. I wasn't the only one that got victimized by TFS payment system. My son-in-law went through the same experience with TFS...

    Car was returned to them after 2 years of lease and only had $13.7K miles. Car was resold within a week. At the time of return Toyota representative didn't provide any concerns about the condition of the car. Several weeks later Toyota sent me a bill with excessive wear charges. They were very rude on the phone when I tried to negotiate this issue with them.

    We have been with TFS for 10 years and never had a late payment until recently when I accidentally put a wrong letter in our new Toyota account which is paid thru our bank online and the first two payments went to the wrong account. Because the car is in my husband's name, his credit score has dropped drastically due to a mistake I made. When it was brought to our attention from TFS, I made the correction and the payments were made to the correct account. We were told we would get a reimbursement of the money that went to the wrong account.

    However, a report was sent to the credit reporting agencies and my husband's credit went from excellent to fair. We have always paid on time but apparently TFS doesn't make mistakes and is very unforgiving of those who do. I would not recommend TFS to anyone and if we decide to stay with Toyota, we will definitely be doing business with another financial company. TFS loyalty to their customers mean nothing.

    Alright! Here we go... To start I get a (New) Toyota auto (for sure #1 big mistake) loan. Now, This is with a fixed rate and payments are the same amount each month. OK - No big deal! That's what I wanted - Even the Finance Dept. Mgr. said it was fixed rate and the payments would not fluctuate in which they don't. Cool! Now on the other hand I have been paying on this loan for a little over 2 years (@ $508 monthly) and to my surprise when I check my credit report (boy what a shocker) I find that the balance of this loan is not correct!!! The original loan balance started out with everything included title fee, tags, interest, etc., $25,531. I would think my balance after paying $12,168 so far on this would bring the balance down to $16,363 ( $25,531 - $ 12,168= $16,363) Is the math not correct? I think it is. So, Now I have a balance of $22,006 otherwise Toyota is reporting that I have paid only $6,525 this is (BS!!!).

    Does Toyota have a hidden balance that they don't put in your contract??? I understand about certain amount goes towards interest & principal (I checked with local bank on that issue). My question though is: Why is Toyota not giving me "FULL" credit for my payments??? CROOKS THEY ARE!!! So, I will be filing a "CIVIL LAWSUIT" against this corrupt giant! Hello - Wake up America!!! Time to take action now or be derailed for life. Let's Make America Better Than Before!!! (For Everyone / No Matter Who You Are)!!!

    This is outright robbery. Toyota Financial Services intentionally continues to take out auto payments when the lease is over. I refinanced the vehicle through TFS two weeks ago and they still took out a payment that wasn't even due!!! Where is the CFPB when you need them? Stay away from this shoddy company!!! I will be contacting the CFPB next. You should too!!!

    I paid off my loan in mid Aug 2017 and expected to receive Lien release. When contacted reps at Toyota Financial services they told it will take 15-30 days. After waiting till mid Sep 2017, for about a month, then I called to learnt that the Lien release and Title records have been sent to my address on Sep 1st and that they weren't sure on why I did receive it. Upon further grilling and several phone calls and at least 1 hr of wait times each time to get to talk a rep, they found out that they sent my valuable personal info to some unknown person. How did that happen? They have no clue. What documents were sent out, they had no clue.

    So they said okay fine, we will dispatch another Lien release and Title records info on Mon, Sep 25th, 2017 and asked me to wait another 10 days. They were not ready to provide any tracking number whatsoever. After calling them at least 5 times on Mon, Sep 25th, they agreed to do an overnight. When I called 2 days after on Wed, Sep 27th, again they had no clue of who they sent it to, was unable to provide a tracking number and saying it was returned. They had no clue of why it was returned, not ready to reveal tracking number because all of their errors and mishandlings will show up. Finally they said they will create a new Lien release on Wed, Sep 27th and dispatch it overnight. I seriously hope I will receive my documents at least in this 3rd attempt of theirs. Such horrible people working at TFS, and poor management.

    I am not sure how a company as big as Toyota has such a poor financial dept that handles recklessly customer info. No wonder companies such as this fall prey to hackers. How could they send customer personal info to some unknown person, twice not once. I hope they are reporting at least their financial results correctly to SEC. I highly recommend to stay away from them. I had to go thru so much mental agony and suffering to deal with crooks at Toyota Financial Services. Highly dissatisfied. I don't think anyone at Toyota even cares to read these complaints, because if they do, I would not have seen exactly similar reviews and experiences posted here already before mine.

    They towed, somehow, stole my car at the door for just two delayed payments, only by a posted notice, no enough calls to notify us. We were out of the city for a few days during the time they sent me a notice. Even worse, they did not send any email to inform us. Their behavior is terrible. They would make money for auctions... They made a disaster for us... THEY ARE CROOKS!!!

    I leased a Toyota 2014 Prius Plug In & returned it to the dealership early in December 2016. It was in pristine condition. They turned around and sold it immediately. I negotiated a payoff deal at the dealership for 50%. Or so I thought. I put it on a credit card and was given a receipt with nothing written into it but the date. Then in May a collections agency called asking for a huge amount. I explained that I had already paid it off. The guy was rude. They persisted in calling me. I went back to Toyota where I gave the $550 as a payoff I thought. They refunded the money to me after much ado. Then I paid off the negotiated debt for $1700 or this is what I was told I had to pay & used the $550 towards it.

    I just got a letter from yet another collections agency saying I still owe $440. I explained to her the situation. She told me to get a release of debt letter & I requested this from the collections agency I had paid it off to. He agreed it was paid off & would send a release of debt letter in an email & snail mail. It never arrived. Round & round we go. I own a Toyota now. I WILL NEVER BUY A TOYOTA AGAIN.

    Tried to keep up with the expensive payments as long as we could but then family tragedy happened and kept both of us from working full time. We were barely making ends meet. We had not ever been late on a payment in the year we had had the new 2014 Camry. However, when I called and told them our situation and that we just needed some time to get through this and get back on our feet, they wouldn't even consider working with us. They said we have to find a way to get the money or the car will get repoed. What a joke this place is. Crooks. We took out another small loan and paid the late payment and the current one (over a grand) and tried to keep up with payments from there. Then I got laid off and we were in the same boat.

    Still only had that one late payment in over a year and half. They harassed us for payment, I told them the situation and asked if they would just give us a month. Nope, they were so offensive, rude, and disrespectful to me like I was some sewer rat. I told them they should be professional and stop treating me or anyone else that way. And I served my country and deserved respect. They didn't care, she just said, well you MAY have but we still need two payments or the car is repoed. We voluntarily surrendered the car at a dealership, the salesman there looked at us like we were committing a crime. When we walked out of there without that car, such a great free feeling. Burden lifted. No amount of debt is worth so much stress. Toyota is a terrible company, I would never ever buy from them again.
