I live in a town called Longview, Texas. I am deaf and needed a car so bad. I thought JDByrider would be a good company.....I was wrong. They sure did take forever with the paperwork, we were there all day. First they said "Hey, 1000 down payment. 329.58 a month for a 1999 Chevrolet Cavalier." Then after I signed the initial paperwork, they said they needed 800.00 more on the down payment. I should have walked out right then and there, but they offered me a deferred payment to get the 800 together. When I went into the office with Joe Partain, he flew me through the paperwork, signing this and that. Explaining(or so I thought)as I went along.

My friends and family said I should have had an interpreter with me to avoid being taken advantage of, but I didn't do that. I called myself being independent and going without one. Big mistake! Joe Partain took me for Foo-Foo the Clown, he knew I didn't understand him and that I was desperate. Now those people made arrangements for my insurance on the phone and the price was so cheap, I thought I sure did luck out. Took a few weeks to get my sticker and they kept giving me the cardboard tags to use over and over again. Still, I thought I had really lucked out. Until the insurance company started being so late sending me my monthly notices. I cancelled that company and went with another one, that's when the harrassing started. The letters, letters, letters from Partain telling I had lapsed insurance coverage and the company called them and told them I cancelled. Even though I made sure my new company faxed them the information with my new coverage with the new company....Partain still kept buggin the living daylights out of me.

After a while, I had a busted light that they repaired. Since they say I had to pay for it, I wrote them a check for it. When one of the mechanics said the work was covered in my warranty, I thought cool and cancelled the check I wrote them. For months, no one mentioned it....just harrassing letters threatening me with repossession for lack of insurance and I was just as confused as all out heck! I went in to have the oil changed...nobody said nothing about check or insurance. I go to make payments...nobody said nothing about nothing. They just greedily kept taking my money. Partain kept calling my daughters cell phone, even in class, he was calling, bugging folks to death. He said I owed money, I was madddddd, but said ok, when I have it, I'll pay it. He knew I didn't work, and was on disabilty. He knew exactly how much money I got a month and I would not be able to fall down and worship at his feet with more money...so soon.

Welllll today, these so called business folks(modern-day CROOKS)had the nerve to repossess my car. The car I have been paying on for over a year....paying 330 a month instead of 329.58...on time every single month...paying early when the pay date fall on the weekend. They have a fit on people for being a day late, but all lusty-eyed on your money when you pay early! Their reason: a bounced check(the cancelled one)and not having FULL coverage insurance on the car. I said WHAT!!? You mean to tell me those greedy gut folks took my monthly payment with a smile on they face, then turn around and repoed my car. I had no idea my insurance coverage didn't satisfy those idiots, they never said a word about full coverage in all those letters, when they did(a week before) I said ok. It cost money to change my policy and I didn't have it. So I called the cops, they said car dealers usually take back the vehicle when you don't pay....but I have been paying, on time, and had the reciepts to prove it. They said as long as I had Texas required insurance, I was within the law and they shouldn't have done that. Cops said it was between me and them basically....so I blew a gasket. When I thought of that 1800 I got my lights cutoff to pay and that 330x13 months....my mind just popped a wheelie. I called my sister to come get me, she took me to that car lot, I located my car in the back, hopped in and drove off that lot....yes I did! Nobody saw me or said nothing, but I got it hid until Monday when I go see the JP and Constable and by the time I am done, I shall own that car....period. There are laws to protect the deaf and I am going to use them to bring Byrider in Longview...DOWN!!! I am going to the newspapers, tv stations, any and everybody I can. I am emailing the Attorney General, the Federal Trade Commission...shoot, the CONGRESSMAN! Somebody will sit up and say JD Byrider gots to GO!

JD Byrider and CNAC in Longview are an excellent firm. I have FACTS to prove it.

AUTHOR: Nate - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Friday, February 20, 2009

First off Scott I am not calling you a liar. I read your story and basically disagree with every point of your story. I have 2 cars that my wife and I drive from JD in Longview TX. Both times it was VERY clear of the following: NO grace period (1 day late and it WILL be Repo'd), Insurance (Must be full coverage), Down payments are scheduled well in advance of signing any papers or even the financing itself, and finally JD Byrider is a company that explains every single paper you are signing, they video record the signing process to cover all avenues of fraud.

When I first went to JD I knew this is were I could get a car that would run well, it may be over the blue book and the interest rate would be very high but that is my fault for a below average credit rating. Every step of the way not only do they talk you through the process but they even have flip charts/ videos/ and the contracts to READ before you sign anything. I used JD for our second car because of how good they were in my first experience. I have been happy with them from day 1.

In regards to the Full coverage insurance IT IS IN THE CONTRACT THAT YOU SIGNED THAT YOU WILL HAVE FULL COVERAGE INSURANCE W/ A $500 DEDUCTABLE THROUGH OUT THE TERM OF THE FINANCING PERIOD. If they were hounding you for proof and you had it from a new company then take it up there. I don't buy into the I'm deaf stuff when YOU should have taken it upon yourself to get it in their hands. It is your responsibility.

Facts aboutthe business/no degrading anyone

AUTHOR: N. - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Monday, January 29, 2007

Here are some facts that will shed light on many topics people get angry about.1st the interest rates vary from state.Certain state rules apply. Typical 25% is the highest any lender can charge.Many of the big name lenders charge 25% all day evry day for personal loans etc.CNAC will charge between 18% to 25%.They will be abiding by the state laws.Typical when you see a high rate, it is due to the risk that a lender is taking by extending credit compared to their repsective portfolio.The higher rate equates with higher losses and charge offs(people who don't pay).People always seems to look down upon JdByrider becuase of rate.

However, your typical car dealership has a resource of lenders to finance through.They will run your application through everyone.Hence you see different inquiries on your credit bureau from one stop at a dealership.If John Doe will get approved through just one lender that charges 19%, they will sell you the car. The rate may be hid in the fact that you will get a longer term, which makes the payment seem lower.The buyer in this can be blinded becuase he/she just got a car from a new car dealership and belives his/her status is elevated.

It is also important to note that every JdByrider is under different ownership, hence they can't all be thought of as the same.It is also important to note that trhey serve a market sector that wouldn't exsist if it were not for JdByrider.When some one claims that they were ripped off, it is becuase they came to the only market that would serve them.Without JD they would not have got a vehicle anywhere.Is it becuase they were a bad person? NO.Circumstances? Yes.

People complain about collectors calling?Sure who would like that!However,it is proven that if these contracts aren't closely monitored;they will fail.It is a fact.Fact, nearly 50% of all financing contracts done by CNAC will fail.Is it becuase CNAC wants to watch contracts fail and take losses? NO. It is simply becuase people stop paying.This is one of the reasons that a high finance charge applies to their contracts, to compensate for losses.The same motto applies to any other high rate loan one might recieve from a lender through a new car delaership.I admitt,some people are their becuase they have no credit.They should take advantage of CNAC, establish credit and move on never to return as a customer.

Other people are their becuase they have failed to pay people,whether due to mismanagement of money or life disaster.The fact still remains.People ask why they need a down payment?1.Down payments are required to bring the price of the car down to keep payments lower.A high rate can make payments high quick, right? Second, down payments can be required to see committment out of people,so they invest something before they leave.Example, Someone has 2 to 3 repos.Evidently they have established a pattern.Deferred down payments make up for the person who has no downpayment,plus it shows extra committment.

JdByrider and CNAC are two separate companies.The prices on the cars may seem higher.Are they?JdByrider does spend money reconditioning vehicles. They could have 500 to 1,000 morew in it then a typical used car dealership.Plus, the cars have to be higher priced or the two companies would go out of business, becuase CNAC is finacing so many people that simply will fail.The guy who pays off his car makes up for the guy who fails or the market would disappear.It is strange that you never hear of people who had a good experience at JdByrider.

There is many people who have used CNAC as stepping stone. They paid good on their contract for 2 to 3 years, then buy a new car and pay it off.The new lender saw good history with CNAC and ignored other negative credit aspects(if present) and financed them.Another hilarious comment that is made often is "I was sold a lemon".A used car can break down, whether you bought it from JD or anywhere.Many people will just complain to CNAC becuase they have to pay them.

I wonder if people call their lender who financed them from XYZ new car dealership if their car breaks down(all things equal, no warranties)and complain? I could go on forever.I do feel for the people that have a bad experience with one particular person though.On a final note, Their are many companies out that will place an on time device on your car if your payment is not made on time.You car is disabled.I can't speak for all JdByriders, but many do not use this.

People also complain about biweekly payments.It is done to hekp people budget.Essentially, half a monthly payment,instead one big payment at once.It also keeps credit in good standing. If a person is one payment behind the constantly roll back 14 days in terms of delinquency.Late yes.If you paid half of a monthly payment on a monthly contract,you wil still be reported late at the end of the month.

Insurance

AUTHOR: Susan - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Wednesday, November 29, 2006

I don't know much about the laws in other states, but here is michigan we have a certain dealership where full coverage is not required to buy an automobile. I don't think that you did anything wrong. I wish I would have the guts to get my car back too! Well, if I was mad and had proof of my payments I would've done the same thing. Don't worry about the negative criticizm...(however you spell that?!) Some people you would think would defend them. I think that they are wrong not to have a grace period, especially in our economy! Who doesn't have problems? But fight them all the way...we all need to stand up against things like this so that it doesn't happen to anyone else. Lately America has been getting lazy and we don't stand for anything anymore for anybody. Boy, I bet our forefathers would be ashamed wouldn't they if they seen all the crooked bums screwing whoever they can for a dollar. No morals. I doubt that this country, the way it is and heading, is what they envisioned!!!! So anyway good luck!

JD Byrider are jerks for a reason

AUTHOR: Meredith - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Thursday, May 18, 2006

First, I understand what you are talking about with JD Byrider. I live in Longview and was looking for a car recently and stopped in there. They seemed shady to me from the start. They basically straight out told us we would pay more because they do EVERYTHING themselves like financing and paperwork. They said if we had bad credit or no credit (I don't know if this was the case with you or not) they could get us financed but other wise we should go somewhere else. We have good credit so we went to Toyota of Longview and got a great deal with a NEW car for only 250 a month. When we bought that car they told us we would have to have full coverage insurance. Every car we have financed we have been told that and you should have been told that right off too. I don't know why they would ask for another 800 either. It sounds like they were bad business people but unfortunatly didn't do anything "illegal". My advice.. don't go to any car place that caters to people with bad credit. They can and probably will cheat you because they know they have an advantage. Thats what it sounds like happened to you. I'm sorry it happened. :-(

CNAC/JDByrider Longview, Texas Things are a bit different here in Texas

AUTHOR: Ladonia - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Saturday, March 25, 2006

Excuse me Mr. Scott, I don't know how they do things in the Dakotas....but here, it's a bit different. I have never heard of any financial institution requiring full coverage insurance. I asked around, none of my friends and family have heard of it either...matter of fact, my cousin got a new car from the local Mitsubishi dealer and they didn't make her get FULL coverage....she just has liability. And if those people have of made sure I understood the terms of the contract, this never would of happened. They knew what kind of insurance I had for 3 months, they didn't care, they wanted my money.

And I don't care what I am admitting anywhere cause I have nothing to hide. I didn't steal a car, I took back what I have paid on...now if I had of missed payments or even stopped paying, I wouldn't interfer with a repossession. I don't care if they take me to jail either, I will sit there as long as I have to, and they will never know where that car is. The way I see it, Byrider stole MY money...and in Texas, when people do you wrong, you get revenge.

Full coverage is required on financed vehicles

AUTHOR: Scott - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Friday, March 24, 2006

Every financial institution I've ever heard of requires FULL coverage insurance on a financed vehicle. That is to protect THEIR collateral, and it remains their collateral until you make the final payment.

Do you realize that you've just confessed, in a public forum, to theft of vehicle?

Instead of putting a stop payment on that check, you should have gone to the manager to make sure it was covered by warranty, and if it was, asked for a refund or the check back.
