Closed Auto Loan Reporting As Open Question

I have an auto loan reporting across all bureaus as open but in good standing. I suppose that is well and good except for the fact that the loan was closed in Dec of last year. My question...would having the loan shown as open reduce my credit score or do you think it's helping? I've heard having a loan of that nature close can reduce your score so I'm not sure what to do about it. Any input is appreciated. Thanks!

Well, see whether you get any other feedback from other folks on here.  But if I were you, I'd just end up having some low grade anxiety if I had a record on my report that claimed I owed a big chunk of money for something I didn't.  The explanation, I assume, is that the creditor never updated the record to show that you paid off the loan. Unless someone here tells you differently, I'd reach out to the lender and confirm with them that they agree that you paid off the loan in December.  If they do agree, explain that they haven't yet updated the final status of the account to show that you paid it off -- and ask them to do that.  That way you'll end up with an accurate report that shows future creditors that you can manage and pay off a car loan. I have allowed incorrect data to stay on my report when it is absolutely 100% positive.  This is a bit of a mixed bag: a record that falsely asserts you still owe a creditor a good chunk of change.  Whetever benefit you get out of it being "open" doesn't seem worth it to me.  But see what other people say.

  • Question about Auto Loan...

    I've had 5 auto loans in my life (in the last 17 years, 1 used, 4 new) all has been paid on time, never late, never repo. I filed for BK7 in April and discharged last month including my auto loan which I still pay for (It's almost paid off). I wonder if Bank use credit score and/or auto score? I mean I never heard of Auto score before someone brought that up which is different. How does that work exactly?Thanks y'all

    From what I understand the auto versions of FICO weighs past auto loans more than say your FICO 8 score.  So the better your auto loans are on your reports, paid, no lates, no repos, then your auto score should be ok.  If you're shopping for a new auto loan, some banks may use the auto version and some may not.  Also there are different versions of the auto score.

  • NASA Auto Loan Questions

    So I recently got approved for NASA membership and CC. I am also toying with the idea of getting a new car or truck. Currently drive a 07 Accord that has been paid of for a few years now. While I love having 0 car payments I kinda want something more sporty.
    Anyone have any experience with NASA auto loans and their process? Im probably gonna shoot for end of year should I take on a new vehicle. My approval score for NASA according to the paperwork was 666Ex but myFico had me in the 640s so not sure what version they pull. Currently myFico has me in the 670s and that should only get better.
    Any thoughts, help or even recommendations would be amazing. :-)

    Many of the subprime banks are going to cap how old the car can be and how many miles the car can have and a 4runner (while a great bullet proof choice) at that price probably is not going to fall in those perimeters if I had to guess.but check capitalone.com and you can get pre-qual for used car loan

  • USAA Auto Loans Question??

    I would like to know what is the lowest score you can have to get an auto loan with USAA? I have already applied with Prestige and hope to hear something tomorrow or the next day. Just trying to find the best places to apply with. Ive been reading a lot of things here so any recommendations on who to apply with for an auto loan appreciated. Thanks

    We also applied to Prestige and got an email back saying they may have a program for us so now i have to submit our pay stubs and thats it. i am a little skeptical though after reading all the negative reviews on consumer affairs.com website.They have a D rating with the BBB and in some of the reviews I read, people that were approved after 3 weeks some were told they had to return there cars to the dealer because of a finance issue. They just seem a little shady for me to feel comfortable using them. They already pulled our credit so we now have another ding. Hoping someone will approve us within 30 days so we don't lose a ton of points on our credit score. If you do go through with Prestige, let me know how it goes.

  • How many new accounts before I start getting denied for an auto loan in Oct? (Fico 8 score 820)

    As I understand, DCU gives some fantastic auto loan terms (1.5% for its members, which can be anybody from the general public), and they want mostly 680 and above to qualify for that rate. So you're possibly fine unless maybe you hit double digits in inquiries?  Now I also understand that you might qualify for 0% financing at some places; their models (the auto enhanced ones) might penalize more harshly than FICO 08 for opening up new CC accounts so you may want to be careful with that.  The current MyFICO package offers those scores as well, I believe. Why don't you check where you are with all the new accounts w.r.t auto enhanced scoring?

I understand its ideal to wait for 6+ months. But worst case I'll just wait another couple months or just buy my car outright. But to get a better idea and understanding of how far I can push this. Given my score and history, how many new accounts before I start running into trouble? I applied for 2 new CC so far. I'm going to APP for another 1-2. So in October this is what my inquires will look like: (4 new inquiries)Hard Inquires with past 6 months: EXP: 2-3. EQ- 0,  TU: 1-2  Hard Inquiries older than 1 year: EXP: 3, TU:2, EQ: 1 3-4 New accounts that are 3 months old: What do you guys think? Always appreciate everyone's advice and input, Thank you!!!Not sure the answer but...you're my hero.

  • Auto Loan Payoff

    Did a bit of searching and didn't find an answer to my question. If I make monthly payments on my auto loan as usual, but make say, 2 or 3 a month, and the loan ends up being paid off much before the loan term, will the payments show up the same as if I made payments each month for the entire duration of the loan? Basically, will the credit report give me a "check" or an OK for each month, AND, will the loan remain on my CR for the same amount of time as it would if I finished paying it off "on time" and not early. Does that make sense? Thanks!

    OK, to clear up some confusion here: this is 100% lender dependent on what your best strategy is in this scenario. To make one thing absolutely clear, if you make a payment you ARE attacking the principal in any simple interest loan assuming you don't miss a number of payments.  This is mathematically provable. Secondly, there's usually two different payment options: regular payment which is zero the current interest, and then rest goes to principal, or make a payment directly to principal and leave the interest untouched. Now here's where it gets to the lender dependent part - two examples from direct personal experience: 1) WFDS - If I make a regular payment larger than the expected amount, it gets applied to future payments.  If I push this ahead non-trivially, this goes way out ahead in the future and that's precisely what I did with them and nobody said boo.  I've done the same thing on my Alliant secured loan recently, and others did it with SDFCU... my next payment on my Alliant loan is in 2018.  That's right, 3 years from now. 2) DCU - If I make a regular payment larger than the expected amount, it still gets applied to future payments; however, DCU will reset the due date to 3 months ahead of time if you pay beyond that.  I kicked $3K to my auto loan, payment date got pushed well in advance (had a 310 and change payment) and then I got a nasty gram from DCU telling me not to do that and they reset my payment due date to precisely 3 months ahead.  Did it again later, same darned thing happened.  Wasn't happy. The reasons for doing this are two fold: longer tradelines are simply better, and we've recently got a conclusive set of datapoints that installment tradeline utilization (which auto loans count into) is an actual thing on both FICO 8 and FICO 98 scores.  Data all here: http://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/Understanding-FICO-Scoring/Installment-tradeline-utilization-thread/td-p/4055989 Anyway, make some lump sum regular payments and see if you can push the balance down to some trivial amount, but do not pay it off.  Auto interest rates of a couple percent these days on $100 or even $10 is absolutely trivial for FICO reindeer games, and a longer tradeline and a nice anchor to the installment utilization metric, is absolutely the right way to approach this is my opinion.  The only reason not to do it is if someday you have to get a DTI calculation done for a mortgage and you're missing by the expected payment amount, then pay it off otherwise keep it for as long as possible.  You can sort it for smaller dollar amounts on a DTI calc with a minimal secured loan, but I wouldn't close a pretty auto loan anytime before I had to personally... that's a high quality tradeline in my opinion, milk it for all that it's worth.  

  • I need to refinance this auto loan!

    One of my auto loans is through Regional Acceptance and it's actually one that I co-signed on but they have me as the primary (of course) and the kid has paid almost $2K and the balance has decreased so far by about $500. (Apparently one of those upfront interest deals that we didn't read close enough, but I had zero auto loan history at the time and took it with plans to refinance asap we could). Credit Score: FICO8 EQ 710 (putting that because we would like to try for GM)AAoA: 1 year (the only account still reporting an older TL)# of positive trade lines: 12# of negative trade lines: 0Income: $52KLenght of Employment: permanent disability (VA & SSDI)Previous Loan Experience: 2 auto loans that are 4&5 months oldDebt-to-Income (DTI): 19% (this includes the payment on the current loan for this vehicle if that makes any difference)Year of Car: 2011Miles: 38KPurchase/Refinance: RefinanceRequested loan term (XX Months): 72 or lessDown payment amount: $0 (the kid just put $7500 down when he bought it 3 months ago)Co-borrower/Co-Signer: Will be co-joint with my kid.  This and a Cap1 QS1 are his only TLs, both less than 4 months oldOther:

    Try Notre Dame FCU. I refinanced a 19% loan to 5% and was approved for a $5k Visa Platinum card at the same time. Dropped our payment from $431 to $288. They pulled Transunion and my score was a 650.Well, I wanted to dip my toes into the water first to test the temp and so I hit your link above late last night and applied for a small personal loan.  It gave me info, dates, interest, payment amounts, etc and stated someone would call me. Early this morning (around 8am) I got a call from a really nice lady and she told me she was calling about the loan and need some more info. I gave it to her. She then told me that she had been reviewing my credit report (TU) and told me that my score was very good and I should be proud of it (she told me it is 750 and that is currently my FICO8 TU Score if that helps anyone).   She also said that I had a few low limit store cards and that I needed better and that she could get me a Platinum VISA 'with buying power' to help me there. Then she wanted to talk about my auto loans and asked questions about those, I explained one was mine that I drive and the other I co-signed for my kid.  She said she could see that I was paying a really high interest on both and wanted more info if I was interested in refinancing.  After getting her the VIN numbers, pay off, etc  she said she needed to put it all together (and I guess send it through, maybe underwriters?) and that she would call me back when she had their offer(s). So now I'm waiting on that call.  She did say something about the interest rate on the one car being 2.2-something, and my kid's would be 4.something.  This would be great since they're currently 15 and 18 % due to not having any auto loan history at the time of purchase a few months ago and also 2 paid studen loans that had some lates on them. BoyHowdy!  I sure hope this all pans out, parkbuilder! Swampthing, thank you, I keep hearing good things about Digital.  It's always good to have more options in case one doesn't work out.  I've def added them to my list of lenders that I keep info on

  • Before, when i closed Firefox with multiple tabs open, it prompted me and asked if I wanted to return to these tabs the next time. When i downloaded the new Firefox, i can't do that anymore. Is there an add-on to make that happen?

    I recently updated Firefox on my desktop and laptop. Before, when i closed Firefox, a window would open and ask me if i wanted to return to the same group of URL location tabs the next time i opened Firefox.
    Now it doesn't ask that, so i have to remember which sites i was using each time. Is there a way to return to the same group of URL locations each time I re-open Firefox?

  • Carl's Auto Updating Report example with Apex 3.0

    Hi,
    I'm try to develop a page very similar to Carls' "Auto Updating Report" page and been very new to Apex I find it very hard to work out all the things I need to do from the example pages.
    Is there anywhere I can download a sample application so I can explore the code through APEX to see how everything works and fits together.
    Any help would be most appreciated.

    Thanks I have it working.
    Just one more question is it possible to have two reports on same page to auto update?
    If I simply add another html_PPR_Report_Page with the second report_id I get an Error : "gNode is null or not an object". using IE.
    function mon_Refresh()
    setTimeout("mon_Refresh()",5000);
    html_PPR_Report_Page (null,'R1736701112358007',$x('r_R1736701112358007').getAttribute('htmldb:href'))
