They really Consume alright.I was behind 2 payments cause of losing my job so I called them and told them I had a payment going in two days so I woke up and found that Santander had my truck Repoed in the middle of the night on December 21,2011 thanks for ruining Christmas for my family.I had to borrow money $1600.00 to pay off my truck,repo guys want $155.00 to get my personal stuff back and they tore my drivers door apart for what I dont know,and we had to drive 255 miles to Adesa Auction to get our truck but not till we payed them $300.00 before we could get it.I think that they are all in this rackett together.I hope someone looks into this the way they do things. 12a7072

I recently reported on a different post in a comment about my dilemma?. So to spare from repeating myself I will just tell you an update:. I am pleased to report that the refinancing for my car went through at my own bank, in the end my brother had to put his car up as collateral and cosigned but we got ourselves out of the loan at Santander/. I encourage anyone who has a loan with Santander to see if you can refinance at your own bank that you trust". I have also warned my bank that Santander is shady and facing lawsuits and to be sure they mark the payment as in full when they pay them off and to make sure absolutely sure they are off my car title?. I now have a refinance through my bank of $194 payments each month for 4 yrs, compared to the 2 1/2 years I had left on the Santander loan at $298/.42 each month'. Putting $104 back into my pocket each month that I need for living expenses, and the interest rates were lower because I now qualify for lower interest rates:. Please see if you can refinance at your own bank, it is worth the trouble.

First off, the last comment that was made by nikalseyn. Let me tell you, that wasn't a nice thing to say. What about saying some encouraging words verses bringing someone down about their late payments. It's unfortunate that this person was loosing his job and here you come with this ignorant comment. You better hope you dont loose your job and be in the same situation. There is a such a thing of KARMA have you ever heard of it. Anyhow, I'm sorry that happened to you gigi. The bank is a complete ripoff and they have bad reviews and not accredited by the BBB. The have 3687 complaints by the BBB. I'm in the process of taking them to court due to stating I owe another $15,000 after i put in $12000 already. My truck only cost $13000. I know something isnt right and I'm taking it a step futther. If anyone wants a part of it you can email me at

I have excellent credit and was with Citifinacial until my account was sold to Santander. They have the most unprofessional and rudest service reps I have ever dealt with.

That is not true. I have excellent credit and was with Citifinancial. They sold their autoloans to Santander and they were a nightmare from day one. I pay on time, but I was two days late and they called non-stop AND had this crazy daily late charge..soglead they are paid off - back to dealing with sane people.

Most clients of this company have crappy credit, i.e. this joker has most likely left his bills unpaid many times in the past.

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, sport, but when you do not pay your bills, bad things happen. Next time pay on time---if anyone will still lend you money after this.
