Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2018 I applied for a loan online and XXXX XXXX XXXX was the company that received my application. At the time I was shopping for the lowest rate. I spoke with the manager and he stated he would give me a discount and I would only pay {$64.00} of interest for the life of my loan. He did everything on the phone. I never signed a contract or received Truth in savings disclosures. Then after I paid the full balance I called to see if all was well and the representative told me I had over {$500.00} more of interest to pay. I explained to her that a manager there gave me a discount and she stated that was only if I paid the full loan off in the first draft payment. That was not disclosed to me and she said well he no longer works here. Not surprised since he was deceiving customers. I told her I need a copy of the contract and they couldn't give it to me. Then on XX/XX/2018 I receive a link to sign my contract. I never received that back in XX/XX/XXXX. I think they falsely electronically signed the contract because now I can view a contract, but on XX/XX/2018 there was no contract on file. If I already had a contract from back in XX/XX/2018 why would I have to sign a new one XX/XX/2018 via email. I think once you click that link, they can say she clicked it so she signed it. I will attach that email. I emailed them the following information so that they do not call and harass me at my job. 
To XXXX XXXX XXXX : I placed a stop payments from your company on my bank account. I was informed by a representative of your bank on the interest of my loan. I was told that after I paid my loan in full, the only interest I will pay is {$64.00}. Now I have been told that this is only the case if I paid you in full on the first draft. I never received a contract in my email nor did I receive a truth in saving disclosure until I called and asked for one on XX/XX/2018. You have been paid the full {$500.00} plus interest. I have no problem paying you the additional {$10.00} dollars based on my original conversation with the representative I spoke with at your company. Do not call my place of employment harassing me. I have told you not to call my job on a recorded line and I have now documented this by email. I have reported your company to the Federal Trade Commission for misinformation. I was deceived by your representative, who now I find out doesn't even work there anymore, probably because he had deceived other consumers. Do not call me employer phone and delete it which in your files. I will not be harassed. You have been paid all the full amount I borrowed which {$500.00} and deducted a total of 4 payments of XXXX from my Chase Bank account. This totals to {$550.00}, I only borrowed {$500.00}. Based on the conversation with your representative, I only owe {$10.00} additional of interest and you may call me to receive that amount over the phone or I will pay it online. Do not call my place of employment and harass me nor call my phone. I placed a case with FTC and CFPB on your representative 's deceptive behavior. And since you have been paid the full amount I borrowed, I believe this is fair.
