Do you have to open a checking/ saving account with them in order to apply for auto loan? Sorry for newbie question, financing outside of dealership is new to me. Thanks!
No, you don't need to open an account to apply. You will need to open one to complete the loan though.Do you have to open a checking/ saving account with them in order to apply for auto loan? Sorry for newbie question, financing outside of dealership is new to me. Thanks!
I just spoke to FPCU and the rate went up on Monday.
Doh! And it’s not even first of the month yet.
Just got approved for 3.25% for 84 months at Provident credit union 100% financing and no payments for first three months if you wanted to use that option.
Anyone use the rate beat with Lightstream yet? They're asking for me to submit an approval letter from the other financing company, but all that company has provided is an email pre-approval that doesn't confirm either term or interest rate. It just says they're running a certain rate currently and that can do up to 60 months.
Fantastic idea on the PDF. I'll try that now and see what happens.I used it last week. My approval letter from the CU was just like yours, it only had the loan amount on it. So, I emailed the CU back asking for term and rate I was approved for. They replied with both. So, I PDF'ed the original approval email / letter and also PDF'ed my email thread with approved rate and term and I included a link to the CU's website with their posted rates. I then sent both to LightStream asking for them to match / beat it. About an hour later I got a generic email back from LightStream stating my documentation didn't qualify for them to match / beat. So, I emailed them back telling them this is all I got from the CU and asking them what else I needed to qualify. Less than an hour later, I got a generic email back that my new rate terms had been approved. I went to the LightStream site and the terms had been updated to match the rate from the CU and reduced by 0.1%, just like their program states. I'm not sure exactly why they ended up accepting what I sent them the second time and not the first time, but they did.

Did they say how long the rate is good for?
Thanks very much!
