I am rejecting this response because:It should show on my credit that I have credit history and equifax there is no report at all there's only info on the late payment my credit did not go up what so ever from this car I had to replace the motor in the vehicle 8 months after purchase but because the car was supposed to help my credit and show I had credit history I didn't make a huge deal about it now my credit only shows I have 1 year and 2 months of history for my recent car. To creditors the way you guys didn't put paid looks like the account was closed it doesn't look good to them apparently and having no credit history reported doesn't look good either when I paid on that car for 2 and a half years. So I am wondering why I have no credit history for that vehicle. I can keep this letter and show the creditors but as far as my credit history it looks like I have none even though I should.

I am rejecting this response because:
I contacted Sam at Universal Acceptance and he is not willing to work anything out. they absoultely refuse to pick up this car.they will not do anything with the title but yet have closed the account for the loan.I will now try to junk the car without the title.they think the lemon law doesn't apply to them because the car is a 2005 but it does because I checked it out I will have to sue them and Car Hop for selling a bad lemon car,,, this is what they have forced me to try now.this can all be avoided if they agree to pick up the car.

Revdex.com:
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted], and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me. further, I found that UAC did go the extra mile and after talking with Julie we were able to come to an arrangement that works for both parties. I cannot express enough, the appreciation I have for the fact that Carhop/UAC did do exactly what they advertise. My experience does show their commitment to Joe Customer. I am not overstating the fact that this is a company that all people can go to for help in these crazy financial times.

The purchase included both a three day Satisfaction Guarantee and an 18 month / 18,000 mile limited warranty, which covers major internal engine and internal transmission components, as well as the drive train. The vehicle had a clean and clear Experian Auto Check prior to its sale.Our records indicate that Ms. [redacted] agreed to an $800 settlement offer and made her last payment on January 26, 2018. At that time we furnished the credit reporting agencies with Account status code 13 “Paid or closed account / zero balance” and a special comment code of AU, “Account paid in full for less than the full balance”. I have confirmed with all three Credit Reporting Agencies (CRA’s) that our information furnished is accurate.

I am rejecting this response because:I have filed multiple disputes with the credit bureaus, if you file a dispute your report is updated as soon as the company responds to the complaint which reflects the "New" information the company has reported through the investimation for the dispute. I have spoken to the bureaus on multiple occasions and and have been sent multiple letters stating that the result was "No change". Which says that the company is still reporting inaccurate information and has been disputed multiple times only to repeatedly report wrong info. If there is an open dispute it would make no sense for the disputr to be closed out and then updated in "30-60 days". The bureaus report the info received following a dispute immediately, with the last dispute showing "No change" in what's  been reported to them. Therefore the wrong information is still being reported.

Response received via e-mail to Revdex.com -- text reads as follows: "RE: Mr. [redacted]File No: [redacted]Thank you for forwarding the complaint from Mr. [redacted]. Mr. [redacted] purchased his vehicle from CarHop on October 8, 2014 and UAC holds his contract. I consulted with...

CarHop and they informed me that in 2015 CarHop assisted Mr. [redacted] with non-covered repairs as a good will gesture. Mr. [redacted] has not reported any further mechanical issues.While it is unfortunate that nineteen months after his purchase Mr. [redacted] is not satisfied with the price that he paid. We do clearly disclose the price of our vehicles prior to sale in two separate locations. First, in the “Non-Binding Offer to Purchase.

I am rejecting this response because:
The response given by UAC is false. I receive alerts every time something is reported to credit agencies. I received an alert and see that UAC reported that I was in collections/chargeoff, and that I made an arrangement after the fact. This is not true. I made an arrangement in November of 2017, when my account was a little over 30 days past due. UAC continued to report that I was not making payments for the next two months, even though I was making the payments agreed to, on the days requested, which eventually amounted to the sum of 800.00. Therefore, when I made the final payment they claim the account was 84 days past due, when they were aware that the payments I made was never reflected in my account. It was reported that I was in collections, when I was not prior to making the arrangement. I spoke with Jason to confirm that the payments I was making were not being reflected on my account after checking online. My account still showed the balance due before the arrangement was made. Jason told me that the payments would not reflect because it was something he was doing and the agreement is not binding until I made the last payment, after I was one payment from the agreement being completed. These practices put me in collection status even though he knew I was making the payments required. I would not make an arrangement and still get negative reporting while I was paying on the agreement. I was not in collections prior to the arrangement. For them to say this is dishonest and simply not true.  I made the arrangement to stop the negative credit reporting and they use it to report negatively anyway. There are plenty of recorded calls, and emails that can prove this is how they conducted the arrangement between us.  I was told that the reporting would state that it was settled for less than the original amount, which would have been about 1400.00 from an original 10.000.00 account.

"Thank you for forwarding the complaint from Ms. [redacted]. Ms. [redacted] purchased her vehicle from CarHop on February 14, 2014 and UAC holds her contract.
To best assist Ms. [redacted] I consulted CarHop. CarHop informed me that an...

inspection test was preformed and passed in September 2013. The inspection is valid for one year. CarHop's limited warranty does not cover continued yearly inspections. It is the responsibility of each
customer to maintain and have yearly inspections as each state requires. Ms. Hennigan would have to have her vehicle re-inspected yearly every September at her cost.
To confirm UAC standard procedure, we do contact customers who fall behind on their payments to help them keep their account in good standing. Currently Ms. Hennigan is delinquent in her contract. On January 15, 2016 during a recorded call, Ms. Hennigan requested that UAC retrieve
her vehicle. The UAC agent attempted to explain the repercussions of a voluntary repossession and that Ms. Hennigan is still responsible for her contract. Unfortunately, Ms. Hennigan ended the call. I encourage Ms. Hennigan to contact Ed at UAC at X-XXX-XXX-XXXX extension number
2957 so that he may finish explaining and help with any questions or concerns.

Stop the lies, you all know I broke my right leg November 2 nd of 2014 and knew I could not drive to get the car inspected and was off of work on leave with half of my income. So what it was a few months overdue at the time!!!... I was told it would be 3, ooo dollars to get inspected by your outfit!! The car is not worth it. it's a 2001 with 120 thousand miles! The cars engine light was a few months after I fiancee the old run down vehicle. Timing would not have mattered. The car is garbage. I'm not paying for a car that will not pass INSPECTION. Bottom line. I only had the car two years. I had nothing but problems. Right after I talked to UAC they started calling my references like vultures. I'm tired. I want a trade in or all of my money back that I put down on the car. There are so many people that complain about CarHop and UAC. I am getting treated like a thief andI'm not. LET ME TRADE IT IN FOR I WILL FIGHT FOR MY RIGHTS.
