Installment loan Shopping for a loan or lease Shopping for a loan or lease Florida

I applied for loan with Avant, Inc. on - -, 2015. I was informed by Avant that I was approved for $12000.00. I provided all of the requested documents, and communicated by phone 4 or 5 times. I actually spent over 4 hours on hold between -/-/15 and -/-/15, and I was even disconnected on one occasion, after being on hold for nearly an hour. Avant 's customer service representative was kind and thorough in handling my questions, but there was n't any follow through from Avant. On -/-/15, I was informed my application expired, and a new loan application was activated. The new application was activated when I logged on to my account to check my status because a contract requiring my signature was on my screen, and I was n't able to navigate on my account, without signing the contract. I was not aware the contract was for a new application, and I was not aware my original contract had expired.


it was declined. I did NOT apply for another loan on -/-/15, nor will I ever apply for a loan from Avant. Based on information I located on the internet, Avant is rated - and a half stars out of - stars in comparison to other lenders, but my experience with Avant did not reflect the practices of a company worthy of a positive review. In my opinion, Avant was misleading, and their customer service was deplorable. In addition, I am now concerned about the possibility of fraudulent use of my personal and financial information due to the notification stating that I applied for a loan on -/-/15, when I did not apply for another loan. I e-mailed my complaint to Avant, and they replied, informing me they deactivated my account, and they referred me to their privacy policy regarding my concern about my financial information. Although my complaint to Avant was handled, it should still be noted that their methods are suspicious, and their communication is painfully time consuming.
