to come get the vehicle as long as it was not in a gated community. I advised her that I was not comfortable with that, that I wanted to be there and receive something in writing stating that they have secured the vehicle. She stated that Summitt Financial is a large company and that I would receive something in the mail 10 days later stating that I could pay off the debt to retrieve the vehicle or advise me of the debt which was owed. I advised her that I was currently out of town but the vehicle was at the residence which was listed on contract. She stated that they had to obtain the key, I advised them to tow the vehicle. She threatened to have me arrested and a warrant issued. I advised her that what she was doing was against debt collection practices and that she had no right to tell anyone that a warrant was going to be issued nor should I be penalized nor threatened with a warrant because Summitt Financial failed to contact me to schedule a pick up time. I have the emails and I am able to obtain records of my phone log to prove that I have initiated contact with the company to secure the vehicle almost 30 days ago.
