If they said your loan account is zero dont say anything and keep all letters and records. but to me it sounds like your payment bounced becuase you didnt have the funds to cover it. make sure they didnt **** up and clear out your chequing account

I for sure wouldn't just wait and see, this can affect your credit rating, even though it's a mistake, any late payments will cause an issue. My advice is don't just wait, get it straightened out ASAP!

I checked my bank account and everything is normal... nothin bounced... but I do think i'll call again and see whats happening. If no one knows i'll just make record of my phone calls and persons I spoke with and request my title

Daymn.....I'd be happy if they forgot the 3k I have left to pay off!

But, like most others said, something isn't right.....don't let their mistake screw with your credit history......Don't let it go too long. Get to the bottom of it, and you'll either get a title, or get to continue to pay off the sucker.
Good luck

Call your lender and tell them that they may have made a mistake. This is karma testing you.

It's the right thing to do.

i belive in karma.. but lets take a different prespective here. Perhaps positive karma is paying him back...

At least you wont have to make a payment for a while untill they do figure it out. This of course might take a while so sit back and relax, banks dont make permanent mistakes in your favor.

Exactly! I definitely wouldn't just wait it out either. If they figure out they made a mistake 6 months later and come looking for payments, your credit is gonna take a hit. If it were me, I'd be on the phone with the bank until I found out what is going on.

Wouldn't you want good karma keep paying you back? The right thing to do is to call the lender and verify whether they're made an accounting mistake... which in this case, sounds like they did.

Screw that I'd take the mistake as a good fortune. Karma won't mind

It would be a dream if this happened to me.

LOL, it's been so long since I had a vehicle that was paid off, I don't remember what that's like. You bet the credit would take a hit, count on it!
