Installment loan Taking out the loan or lease Illinois

My employer made a huge error with my paycheck and I needed funding to assist in a move to a condo. I applied for a loan with Opportunity Financial. Within minutes of completing the process that evening, I began to receive MULTIPLE phone calls from their offices, including into the next day while I was at work, teaching. This was very disruptive and during lunch, I called them and explained that the repetitive calls were unnecessary. As I did not yet have a paycheck stub to send, they closed out my loan application indicating that I could reapply at a later date. The next day, I received an email stating that my loan could not be approved due to 'adverse action ' ( I was told that my paperwork had been closed and not processed due to lack of employment documentation ). Once I received my paycheck stubs, I re-applied, attaching my payroll information. Again, the incessant phone calls began.

The first time it was denied was due to my credit report and the second time, it did not indicate the reason. I 'm not sure what this financial lending institution 's goal is : they are DESPERATE for customers it appears based on the insane amount of contact they make BEFORE - even obtains a loan, but they are also very unorganized and unprofessional with regards to follow-up, documentation and correct information. It almost seems like they might get paid for processing applications but decline as many as possible to keep as much money as possible. The fact that I did not eventually receive the loan is of no consequence as my employer did correct the payroll issue and my financial standing will continue to improve. I am not bitter towards this company BECAUSE my loan was not approved. I am irritated ; however, that based on the confirmation of receipt of the loan that I obtained from the gentleman, I made arrangements to take a condo. Their business practices leave MUCH to be desired and are deplorable. Something just does not feel right about the manner in which they operate ... ...
