I had a car repo about two years ago. Since then, I have been making steady payments on the car. Right now I am having a hard time making the payments, so I have been paying half of what I have been paying them (one payment behind). The person in charge of my account told me that I either make up what I was not able to pay last month or the company will take further action because according to them I am not sticking to the agreement. What I am confused about is the agreement because in the beginning the agreement was to pay 100 (or it could have been 150) a month and I increased it on my own to 200 a month and the person in charge of my account is telling me that the bank will not accept anything less. I am so confused about what I should do. Does anyone know if this will go to court or to a third party collection agency.


Are you paying the bank? Do you have the agreement that says what you are suppose to pay? If not then tell them that as far as you are aware that you are making the proper payment amount and that you increased the payment because you were able to. If they disagree tell them to send you a copy of the agreement.

Also try talking to a supervisor and explain that you were paying more than the agreed upon amount so you should actually be ahead of schedule.

OR

Tell them that you can only afford the $100 right now and if that is not acceptable then you will stop paying and they can take the next step.

Well, the loan originated with another bank and then wachovia bought out that bank and I have been paying directly to wachovia dealer services. The only time that I agreed to a payment was when I agreed to pay either 100 or 150 but either way, your right, I did increase the payments to 200 on my own and I should be ahead and I actually did tell my account manager that 100 is all I could pay and he told me that they will have to take further action. Well it looks like I will have to wait until tomorrow to call but I thank you for responding so soon. I was quite distraught over that phone call.
