Company: Exeter Finance, LLC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
Came to my attention fraud is being committed and harming my personal well being According to 15 U.S Code 1605 ( a ) Finance charge defined Except as otherwise provided in this section, the amount of the finance charge in connection with any consumer credit transaction shall be determined as the sum of all charges, payable directly or indirectly by the person to whom the credit is extended, and imposed directly or indirectly by the creditor as an incident to the extension of credit. The finance charge does not include charges of a type payable in a comparable cash transaction. The finance charge shall not include fees and amounts imposed by third party closing agents ( including settlement agents, attorneys, and escrow and title companies ) if the creditor does not require the imposition of the charges or the services provided and does not retain the charges. Examples of charges which are included in the finance charge include any of the following types of charges which are applicable : ( 1 ) Interest, time price differential, and any amount payable under a point, discount, or other system or additional charges.

( 2 ) Service or carrying charge.

( 3 ) Loan fee, finders fee, or similar charge.

( 4 ) Fee for an investigation or credit report.

( 5 ) Premium or other charge for any guarantee or insurance protecting the creditor against the obligors default or other credit loss.

Also Regulation Z prohibits certain practices relating to payments made to compensate mortgage brokers and other loan originators. The rule prohibits a creditor or any other person from paying, directly or indirectly, compensation to a mortgage broker or any other loan originator that is based on a mortgage transaction 's terms or conditions, except the amount of credit extended. The rule also prohibits any person from paying compensation to a loan originator for a particular transaction if the consumer pays the loan originator 's compensation directly.

The rule also prohibits a loan originator from steering a consumer to consummate a loan that provides the loan originator with greater compensation, as compared to other transactions the loan originator offered or could have offered to the consumer, unless the loan is in the consumer 's interest. The rule provides a safe harbor to facilitate compliance with the prohibition on steering.
