      I had nothing but problems with this credit union since I opened my auto loan in 9/2019. In 24 months I made over 13k in payments. For 12 of the months I paid extra on my monthly payments ranging from $40 to $200. But for some reason my total loan amount went up not down in 2 years. My monthly payment went up over $100 my third month of financing the car and thousands added to the total loan because they said I didnt have collision. That was not true. I made repeated calle even called them with someone from my car insurance and even a rep from the forced placed insurance. Both told representatives from TFCU that I have full coverage insurance. They told them to remove the thousands put on my overall loan and to put my monthly payment back to where it was. I was never able to get anywhere with tfcu reps. I sent ************************************************ ***************************** in collections emailed me stop contacting us and just make your payments because me and my colleagues wont reply. I told them this is pointless just take the car. I was sent a letter from ***** if I wanted to keep my car and not get t repossessed that I need to pay the 2 car payments and the total amount on my credit card which was over $6,000! That I repeatedly told them had all fraudulent charges months prior. Then in December they received a $30,600 for selling the car, $2847 for the forced placed insurance refund and a check 2/11 for my extended warranty refund $1897.02 they cashed the check but never applied it to the total then end of March sold it off as ************* to a debt collector. I had them change the name on the check to the debt collector 2 weeks ago and mail to them. The total amount remaining was $35,485.20 the debt collector was given an extra $525.92 which should go to me. But on my credit report it says the total amount was $36,949 and even after this check I still owe. Plus how come my over 13k in payments in 24 months didn't touch my loan.
