Title: leased vehicle
Post by: mirrorcheck on March 28, 2013, 11:22:43 PM
I called up my car leasing company to arrange for my car to be given to me without payment and this is what happened.
    Me: hello....I am looking to have my payments suspended because they are too costly as im making less then before and cost of living is rising.
    Dealer: well you have 7 more payments and you can then trade it in or buy it outright.
    Me: no your missing my point...I do not respect this price, its now an inconvenience and costly to my standard of living. I refuse to pay it and I have legal ground by which I can stand on.
     Dealer: sir I dont follow your complaint, your asking to keep a car and not pay for it...is that what you are saying ?
      Me: listen....I dont want to waste your time here is my bosses phone number ask for Neil. Let him explain to you why I dont have to honor what I dont like yet continue to use that very same service. Just please call after april 3rd thats when he will be back from vacation. You may think this is crazy but if he is doing this to hundreds of workers.  :bomb:y

Life is difficult to understand when everything was handed to you.....

Suspending the payments was asking too much. Should have just said you didn't like the contract and that you would be imposing your own and would be sending 25% less every month. I'm sure they would have understood.

Can we reuse Neil's letter and tell the city that we are in this together and they have to lower our property taxes, water bills, etc. 7.5% so that we can be competitive with other residents. In 2015
maybe we can pay the normal rates when we renegotiate our contract.

7.5%? With everything else that's being taken away it's closer to 20% ... more for some people.
