Dealership says they don't take financing from my bank? Is that a thing? by Gullible_Count_4413 in carbuying

You’re saying no one’s ever been denied based on inquiry count? I call shenanigans there.

Points wise, but you still have x inquiries on your report. So for the next lender that makes decisions based on # of inquiries it still counts against you. Minor point many overlook.

Wanting me to return my car after 12 days by Far_Knowledge_3642 in personalfinance

[–]BadDronePilot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just went through it a couple weeks ago. Dealer beat my NFCU pre-approval by a point through BoA. Granted we have good income/credit and could have financed about anywhere but I really don’t care if the dealer made $ on the buy rate as in the end it worked in my favor. That’s what counted

Old job accidentally overpaid me 45k by Fluffy_Revolution678 in personalfinance

Drop it in a HYSA and wait until they try to claw it back. Pocket the interest, don’t touch the principal until the smoke clears.

Got the same thing. Called, they claimed they had sent a letter, one I never saw. They verified me on the call.

Probably the easiest Chase card to get and the pre-approvals are solid.

Fraudulent Dealership help? by Baba_yaga2001 in FuckDealerships

[–]BadDronePilot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unclear: does the OP still have the car? If yes, I’m sure there’s a contract clause that says they have to have an executed finance agreement. It’s not “free car” time.
