    Hi Myers,
    I was also turned down by Household... and took note on the advise of people on this board... I went to the dealer directly and they helped me find a financer... "CharterOne" is helping me finance my car at 12% interest. I have a delinquent acct from '96.

    Good luck !!

    You got a damn good rate of 13.9%. Seriously. Most people should expect to get the 18%,20%, 24% rates from household auto or other "subprime" lenders. I know at least 3 folks personally who got the 20% rate at household.

    Paying $20K for a $10K card over 4 years is CRAZY.

    I might talk to them again, if i could get a 13.9% loan, i'd be driving a pretty new car right now.

    I might add...

    I got an auto loan through Fireside Thrift Co. <sigh> To beat that 19.81% interest rate, I have doubled up on my payments to pay off faster and avoid some of those charges. Most people can't afford to do that though....

    That is what I'm going to do, however, I have one debt to remove from my credit report prior to doing anything. Paying more is a good idea, just make sure that they apply additional $$ to principal.

    I have a plan too.

    I plan to send in my military bonus check ($10K ~ 7K after taxes) to household. Any tips on refinancing. I have to wait until 11/01 after my latest late comes off.

    RE: I have a plan too.

    I financed my car through my credit union at work. I have 5 defaulted student loans and they are listed in collections on there too. So I have a total of 10 negative accounts listed on my reports. They gave me a car loan at 7.85%. Now whenever I need to get money to buy stuff, I just get loans against the money I have in my account.
