Re: DCU Preapproved Auto Loan

You won't know how much the pre approval is until your actually apply. But I would say if you need a loan and can't get 0% at the dealer. DCU is definitely the way to go. I have a 1.49% loan through them. Im paying almost no interest. Its great

Or if there is a huge rebate in lieu of the low rate financing, now you can get the huge rebate AND the low rate

Re: DCU Preapproved Auto Loan

Ok. I pulled the trigger last night. This morning I got 2 emails, the first said to email sale order to DCU to finish the application. The second email said I need to be a member. I have been a member since June 2014. I called them, but no one in the loan office was available. How do i know what I have been approved for and for what interest rate? What do I do next when I go to the dealership?

Re: DCU Preapproved Auto Loan

Is there a way for you to find the info on your online account with them?

Re: DCU Preapproved Auto Loan

You really just have to call them and ask what you need. I apped before i was a member too and it wasn't as smooth as I would have liked. Should have got membership first.

Yea the only thing I don't like it that it takes forever to get through.
