| Auto Loan question |
|
|
I've been working for 12 weeks today at my job but the bank requires 3 months employment for a loan and I get paid biweekly so I don't get my next paycheck until my 13th week. Will the bank accept that even though I don't get my paycheck until my 13th week that I've already worked 12 weeks?
P.S. Don't ask why I can't just wait another week. It's a long story and I am really running out of time in needing a car.
Thanks

'Kay, won't ask. But the bank will.
And a thought: decisions made in haste and without forethought are almost always decisions you later decide you could have made a better choice. A week really isn't a very long time.
Can you afford to rent a car for a while? If you rent from one of those local outfits that rents old beaters it's a lot less than renting from a national chain.

Can't afford to rent a car. I just started to work 3rd shift at my job and I'm walking to work in a sketchy area. Someone I know was held up at gun point at around the time I go to work and I've heard gun shots so I'm not comfortable with walking to work. I've been doing rides from work because of it but I'm not comfortable doing that since I feel like it's mooching which is why a week is getting too long.

Wow. Wouldn't you be concerned your car will be stolen or tires ripped off or something like that?
Hey......they allow open carry in your state? Maybe you ought to buy a side-arm.
Sorry I don't have any constructive advice. Banks are very tight with credit these days. They're crossing all the t's and dotting all the i's ... and more.

You might try calling a few car dealers and talking to the salespeople, to see if someone can point you in the right direction. Many dealers have finance companies who will finance almost anything/anybody. You can fudge your work history a bit, babysitting or house cleaning; or otherwise.
