FirstMerit Bank Consumer Loan department,
Vehicle loan Managing the loan or lease Ohio
First merit only allows method of payment limited to those that do not have a checking account with them. In the beginning of the loan i opened a checking account which was closed due to i did not always use the account. I opened just so i had a way to make payments online. They offered a $25.00 bonus check for opening a new account which i was not allowed to receive seeing that my account closed. Now i have to submit my payment by cash only i went in on - to make a payment with $440.00 for my payment of $430.00. The clerk misplaced or took $200.00 of my payment making me late for the month payment. Advising the bank of the issue they proceeded to tell me that because of the way i look i am not trustworthy. To me this is not the proper way you treat customers and i have advised everyone to stay away from this bank. I feel like i was discriminated against due to the fact that i was a single girl that wears hoodies and jeans and not because i did not go into the bank with a suit on or dress.
