Transouth Financial Complaint - Transouth won't give me my title! - Auto Loan Lender

Auto Loan Lender - Complaint
Review by dossett1ps@ont.com on 2002-04-20
BEDFORD, TEXAS -- I have numerous complaints about Transouth Financial, but this is my biggest one and hopefully last one yet... Here's the deal...I overnighted my payoff check in the amount of $12,000+ to their payoff department in Minnesota and typed clear instructions as to what I needed done with the title to my vehicle... Well, Transouth could sure take my money but as of today, over 2 months later, they still haven't sent me the title... I have called about four times and the reps say my account has been paid off and the title is on its' way... Texas law says that the seller/leinholder has 20 days to transfer title to the buyer... So, Transouth, where's my title? As far as I'm concerned, your company is nothing but a bunch of uneducated, low-life thieves who have nothing better to screw your customers by taking their money and not coming through on your end of the deal!

Good Luck! I bought a Jeep thru TranSouth Financial in 1998 from Florida. I live in Ohio and needed the title sent from their office in TX to Ohio so that I can get plates. The State and myself faxed and contacted TranSouth numerous times to have them send the title to Ohio. I had been chasing them for years; meanwhile, I told them that I can't drive the vehicle legally so come get it! I stopped my payments (after already paying over $9000) and let the vehicle sit. They immediately labeled my account as a "charge-off" and turned my account over to a collector. So, here I sit with a 1998 Jeep with 80,000 miles; cannot get tags; they won't pick it up; and have a charge-off on my credit! I now have to petition the State of Ohio for help to get a court ordered title. I can relate to ALL the comments made in this website. It doesn't get any better!

With Regard to Transouth Financial. I bought my 1996 Ford Expedition back in 2000 and paid it off in 2003 (1 year early) over 4 years ago in 2003 and I STILL haven't received my clear title.
When do they actually come through. Maybe they should go bankrupt sp we can get some satisfaction.
