Auto Loan Approvals!

Re: Auto Loan Approvals!

I recently applied to DCU for loan and credit card prior to joining.  

 

Best experience ever at any financial institution.  They hard pull twice once for loan and once for CC.  They actually pulled 3 times for me because EXP, EQ, and TU had inserted a new fraud alert saying to call before issuing new credit.  I ended up leaving it on there but DCU Security would not allow approvals till 3rd pull with new phone so they could tele verify with me for ID.  They soft pull the other two.  HP only Equifax.  Be around 700 for best rate.  They told me 675 for best rate.

 

To avoid unneccesary HP at any CU, be aware that they will pull hard one or more Reports even if you are just joining with no credit app.  So the time to join is after the loan is approved and they won't run another because the section that talks to you about the loan takes care of your membership which is strange but ok with me.

 

 


Current Scores:
MyFico 10/1 EQ 748, TU 699, EXP 685
As of 10/14/2014 All clear-- no negatives.

MISCELLANEOUS COMMENTARY: Car listed for 45k and I put 14k down. Compass bank were only going to loan me 25k. I have been with them for over 15 years and the equity 14k generates as a downpayment should yield more of a loan offer. I will be closing my accounts with them soon as they obviously dont value my money or time spent with them. Capital one took the loan within 5 minutes at the dealership. Thinking about refinancing in 6 months with another downpayment of at least 5k to try and get at least 3% APR.

With your credit score you should be able to get 1.99% (w/o direct deposit, or 1.49% wth direct deposit) wth DCU.  I asked for $27k, was approved and only make $42k/yr.

MISCELLANEOUS COMMENTARY:  Thankful for having an auto loan in my past with good history.  It improved my FICO Auto Enhanced Equifax by 42 points.   The negative side of my history is one $5k card charge off and my credit card usage is 90%.  Old car died so it was time for a new one.  

 

I waited and went on New Years Eve and my dealer negotiated a great deal to close out 2014.  Very excited about the APR because I would have thought I'd be north of 10% given my history.  The manager said working for 4 years at the same employer and living at the same residence for 2 years helped me out too.  

 

Thankful for all the advice in the forum.  I learned a lot and felt prepared.
