Re: Penfed Auto loan Pending with loan officer

Update:

I applied with navy federal thinking they would pull equifax which is my highest score instead they pull Transunion (which is showing 51% utilization ) came back with 9.69% @ 72 months.

 

I also applied with DCU my mortgage EQ is 720 but I haven't heard back yet.

Re: Penfed Auto loan Pending with loan officer

Update #3 DCU finally responded with the following email 

 

After careful review of your loan application (application number 434XXXX), and based on the information provided we are unable to offer you credit for the amount requested. However, we can offer you a loan for the amount of $50,000.00.

 

Meaning their max loan amount is $50000

Re: Penfed Auto loan Pending with loan officer

You can always give PenFed a call and see if a rep will get a loan officer to decision your pending application while you're on the phone.

A lot of reps won't do it for credit cards and they'll advise that you just wait until you hear back. However if tell the rep that you're trying to take delivery ASAP and that you need to get a decision they'll usually contact a loan officer while you're on hold.

Re: Penfed Auto loan Pending with loan officer

@kaylord84 Nice.  Hopefully they get back to you early.  If not, I'd give them a call again.  PenFed is usually pretty good about getting auto loans done quickly.  I just got purchased a new car with a loan from them not even 2 months ago and the process was quick and I had my check the next day.  I hope they move just as fast for you. 

 

Do you have a vehicle in mind yet?

2019 Dodge Charger Hellcat . 22k miles for $62k. I'm in Miami until tommorow suppose to pick the car up tomorrow with a navy federal bank draft and drive back home (Illinois) if my Penfed app falls through I will use them then refinance within 60 days which is when the first payment will be due. My Dcu approval is good for 45 days the rep confirmed that I can change the approval from a purchase to a refinance as long as the amount isn't over $50k .
