That is a ripoff to me. they are making MO money on your loan.WF collectors are notorious for telling you whatever it takes to get you to pay. Now you are known as "easy check by phone" account". On every other loan I have had you have a 10 day grace period before late fees and phone calls occur. Thats a different race. Is there a way to stop this? 2 ways. 1. Dont do the check by phone deal next month 2.save up enough to get in a position to pay before the 8th.get a part-time job to work long enough to save one payment, then quit. And have deliquent do I have to be before they can repo my vehicle? read your contract where it defines "default". Thats how late you have to be. usually ONE day. IMHO, the lender is "soaking" you for check by phone charges. fyi live is missouri GOOD NEWS HERE. IF the valuse of your car loan is OVER $7500.00, they have to send you a 20 day 'right to cure notice" before they can repo. IF its UNDER $7500.00, NO NOTICE at all.
