Revdex.com: I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted] , and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.The issue is that the business calls customers under the premise that it is an attempt to collect information concerning the payment of a debtOnce a customer relays the information requested (i.ewhen payment will be made) their no longer remains a legitimate business need to continue hounding the customer for the same information received on a previous call.Also, it appears that this company retaliated against me for attempting to exercise my rights as a disabled person under the ADADue to my anxiety condition, I asked that I not be called repeatedly but that all communications be made in writing.When asking for an extension on my 2nd payment, the customer service rep linked my asking for a reasonable accommodation to her refusal to grant me an extension to pay my car payment (on the 15th of May) by saying "since we can't call you".In terms of the default provision in the contract, it is clear from line that the company gives these default provisions a liberal applicationI am sure that they do not reposes vehicles simply payment "is not made when due"If given a literal application that would mean they could take possession of a vehicle the very next day after payment is missed.I ask that this company modify its telemarketing activities to respect customers ,who due to a good faith reason, may be late on their car paymentsI also ask that they not retaliate against customers with anxiety-based conditions if asked to provide a reasonable accommodation to not continually call them Regards, [redacted]

Revdex.com:I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted] , and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.I spoke with a Drivetime representative and she was not able to answer my questions regarding how could my payment be if my payment was and what happened to my dollars if what I owed was less than my payment amountThe representative also state that she did not have time to listen to all the calls that were made because it would take too much timeI asked several times for an explanation on how could you owe less than what your payment is and what happened to my moneyThere were several times that I paid more than my payment and what happened to that moneyI never got an explanationI told the rep that I didn't think she did a thourough investigation regarding my concerns and she stated it would be handled internally and I said that wasn't fair to me as a customer if she didn't listen to all the calls and look over the notes and not just go off records because that doesn't tell the whole storyThere are more call than just Jan and Feb that should give a more insight as to what I'm talking about instead of just going off of some records because I was never informed and nothing was explained to me and still hasn't been explained to me as to how did they get to the amounts they are stating are owedThe rep should have listened to all calls and how is it fair as a customer if all calls are recorded and they can't find a call that happened or months agoThere are more recent calls where I have stated this same information and I have tried to get explanations and I have gotten nothingIt is simple math because if my payment is and someone tells me I owe and doesn't tell me I'm behind or I missed a week I'm going to assume that I'm ahead in my paymentsI think Drive time should have handled this in a different manner and tried to resolve this by doing a complete investigation before calling me about the complaint and trying to address my issueShe was stating something about a text message when I had referenced an emailI'm the one who referenced the calls and asked did she listen to them and she stated no and that she would call me back and I have not recieved a callIn reference to the call where she says the call was disconnected if she listens to that call I stated to the rep as I made my payment the my phone battery was about to die and that I would call back but I will make the payment before it doesThe rep is stating something that is not true and to my that makes me question her ethics and moral valuesI don't think me or my husbands credit should be damaged due to misinformation and still not having an explanation as to how they got the amount of and not and where did dollars go toI can only get a fair and honest answer if all calls are listened to and all records are looked atI truly believe this investigation is incomplete and not fairly doneI would hope that although I am only one person that I am considered a valued customer and that as a business Drivetime would value that and look into this matter and treat me fairly as a customer although I am only one personIf the reps at Drivetime have done their jobs they have documented what I have said and they will be able to locate these calls and see that I was never informed and that I have always asked for an explanation of my account and that I did not agreeBefore the rep states incorrect information about a dropped call maybe she should listen to the call or look at the records and see how the call was dropped instead of trying to make a customer look badI honestly think this rep did not do a fair job in investigating my complaint or coming to a fair resolutionI am not looking for a handout but rather a fair and reasonable explanation1+= 3-1=which is basic math and equals and not and there is no explanation of thatI thought I was ahead in my payments and have stated that for monthsThe calls for the last months should still be available and will prove that what I say is correctI am not asking for a handout but fair and just treatmentI don't think my credit or my husbands should take a negative impact if I was misinformedMy other concern is that my payment is due every weeks and I started paying dollars every week so how can my account be plus days behind if for example I owe dollars and I am days behind and I make a payment of dollars doesn't that make me days since I made basically what would be owed in one week? I would like a honest and fair resolution and that's all I have asked for from the beginningI am not looking for a handout but I would like drivetime to consider me a valued customer as I consider them a valued businessIf I was eligible for a deferment or anything on my account why wasn't I told this but rather my account didn't qualify for anything when I asked about a due date change? If a deferrment was an option I should have been offered that so that my account wouldn't go over days late if what the rep states is trueI honestly believe that I am correct and if all all calls are listened to and not just the ones that happened to not be avaliable anymoreI enjoy doing business with Drivetime and have asked reps when would I be eligible to get an additional vehicle from them because I think they are a good company to do business withI am looking forward to a resolution to this matter and one that is fair and honest because I believe Drivetime stands for honesty and they have integrity as a companyIt is a Drivetime discretion whether or not to damage a clients credit and if I did something to deserve that I would hold my head up high and except that but I honestly don't think that I have and if I was at risk of being days late why didn't the rep state this too me when I spoke to her on the phone? That has been my complaint and issue and that is integrity and honor and when those two things are missing then also the right to do what's honest and fair.Regards, [redacted]
