Re: FINGERHUT FRESH SSTART AND AUTO LOAN

congrats on the car... put your nose to the road and continue to work on the baddies on your credit and rebuilding so you can try to refinance in 6 or so months... hopefully 12 at the latest! that loan will barry you quickly.

Re: FINGERHUT FRESH SSTART AND AUTO LOAN

Yikes, 26% for a car loan? I would try right now to apply for a car loan through Digital Federal Credit Union. Even their worst APR for terrible credit is like 11%.
