Read your contract, this is a 30 DAY pawn not one month. If there is 31 days in a month the date would go back one day. (Not a titelmax rule, state law that they are 30 days). If you are late they will call you, if they cannot get ahold of you they will contact your references. But, if you want to complain about your rates you should check other title pawns first. While the others charge 22% or more you are probaly paying 15 or less. They have the lowest rates, and is not there fault you did not pay on time. They are right if you do not pay they can come get the vehicle, if you are trading your vehicle it DOES NOT cancel your contract and obligation to pay them and keep current.

Well they have been calling and harrassing my mother who up till now had no idea I even had a loan with titlemax, now because of them she knows everything about it. They told her everything..which isn't loan info supposed to stay confidential? They have continued to call and won't stop..so I finally agreed to just pay the whole thing off..I still have not heard back from the Attorney General's office. SO after I sent out the money order I find out that they had still been charging me late fees that I wasn't supposed to be charged. I am still waiting for my title from them.

Kimmie, This is typical Titlemax collection tactics. As you can read in reports I have posted here on this company and the actions I am taking against them about this kind of collection activity that is apparent the are trained to practice or just have total disregard for collection laws. May I suggest that first of all that you file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission. The more they are reported to them will continue to raise a red flag with the commission and soon will prompt them to investigate and hopefully get the United States Attorney General to file on them in federal court and fine them heavily and put them on for lack of better words like probation. Also I recommend you call them out and tell them to call your future husbands place of employment along with the dealership and you are trading your car with. Tell them to make sure that they disclose all your personal information about your loan with both of these places. Trust me it will not surprise me if they do it. They don't seem to be very well trained in areas of breaking collection laws. If they do this contact a attorney in the state of North Carolina and file civil litigation on them. Titlemax appears to me to think they are invincible when it comes to laws they have to abide by and from there on actions think they are above the LAW. I know in the lawsuit I have filed against them they have hired a law firm in Columbia , SC to represent them in the matter. This law firm apparently is the largest law firm in the state of South Carolina and apparently one of its specialty's of there practice is torts defense. I am sure the rates they charge do not come cheap and according to there web site they have like 454 lawyers all together and like 54 of the top 100 lawyers in America. As you can tell this really impresses me. I personally hope that when my case with them comes to trial that they bring all 54 of the best with them. I am 100 percent convinced that there actions have ZERO chance of any defense. And when they really figure this out I personally can't wait to prove to them that I gave them fair warning of my intentions if they didn't halt there collection tactics. But it did no good until my attorney filed suit against them on my behalf. I think we may now have there attention to some degree. But to tell you the truth it wouldn't surprise me if they didn't call my house again tomorrow because as I stated before I honestly think that they think there above the law.
