I have been screwed by this company . When I bought the car they charged us almost 17,000 for the car. After getting the car I checked kelly blue book and the car at the time was only worth 8,000. It is a 1997 mercury misque. When I got the car it was Ugly Duckling and now it is Drivetime.

I have had nothing but problem with the car i have put alot into it and it is not even worth it. They sold me the car tell me it was in perfect condition and it is not and was not and was sold with no warrenty. I have been screwed and takin advantage of and am out alot of money. Please help.

You chose to sign the paperwork.

AUTHOR: Bruce - Salt Lake City (U.S.A.)

You had the opportunity to check the value of the car before you purchased it. You chose not to.

You had the opportunity to have the car inspected before you purchased it. You chose not to.

How can someone helo you if you do not help yourself?

Don't see what could be done

AUTHOR: John - Las Vegas (U.S.A.)

Kristan, based on what you reported I don't see what help you can get. It's not illegal for Drivetime to sell you a car for more than it is worth. The time to check the vehicle out is before you sign on the dotted line. This would include checking the blue book price and having the vehicle checked out by a certified mechanic. Though I have read many reports on Drivetime where they were at fault it appears from what you reported that the fault lies with you on this purchase.

Let's see How honest you are

AUTHOR: Joe - Blue City (U.S.A.)

all you people claim how DriveTime is a Rip Off and how they took advantage of you and so on.. well I am an EX employee of the company and I have to say, "HAVE YOU EVER SEEN YOUR GOD DAMN CREDIT REPORTS??? YOU SAY DRIVETIME IS A RIP OFF, BUT WHAT ABOUT YOU? MOST OF YOU HAVE NOT PAID A SINGLE PERSON IN YOUR LIFE. YOU BORROW MONEY AND NEVER PAY BACK. YOU CLAIM YOU CO-SIGNED FOR OTHERS.. LET'S GET REAL YOUR CREDIT IS SO HORRIBLE YOU CAN'T EVEN CO-SIGN FOR YOUR SELF. I HAVE WORKED WITH MANY OF YOU AND IT'S AMAZING HOW YOU CALL YOUR MOM AND DAD TO BORROW $100 AND THEY WON'T LEND YOU A DOLLAR. WHEN WE CALL YOUR REFERNCES TO CHECK THEY TELL US THEY DON'T KNOW WHERE YOU ARE, BUT IF WE FIND YOU TELL YOU YOU OWE SO AND SO SOME MONEY ALSO. YOU READ EVERYTHING YOU SIGN, AND 6 MONTHS LATER YOU ACT ALL STUPID AS IF YOU WHERE LIED TO. TAKE A LOOK AT YOUR CREDIT.. HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE YOU SCREWED? AND YOU SAY THE PRICE IS TOO HIGH... WHAT THE HELL IS THE DIFFERENCE?? IT'S NOT LIKE YOU PAY YOUR DEBT BACK ANYWAY. WOULD YOU LEND YOURSELF $1?? HERE YOU ARE ASKING DRIVETIME TO LEND YOU $12,000 TO BUY A CAR, WHEN NO ONE ELSE IF WILLING TO GIVE YOU $1. GO TO MC DONALD'S AND SEE IF YOU CAN FINANCE A HAPPY MEAL."
