Anyone have experience with refinancing with Tower FCU? Took them a week to process my purchase application so I ended up going with a different bank. They just emailed my approval for 3.49% so I thought maybe I can refi with them.

I called tower twice and got hung up on twice. Then I submitted an application electronically and it was rejected for ā€œsome issue.ā€ so now they are sending me an application in the mail. They told me on the phone if you have a high enough credit score and sign up for auto pay you can get 2.99% on 60 month. So Iā€™ll submit a paper application and see if that works out.

Anyone know if DCUā€™s current posted rates (5.24% for 65 months) include their relationship and energy efficiency discounts?

I currently have a Ford Explorer lease thatā€™s coming to an end. Iā€™ve decided to Purchase it. Anyone have good bank recommendations. Lease is with Ford Financial. Thank you.

Donā€™t forget that FMC wonā€™t allow you to transact right at the end (reports are mixed at 90 or 180 days ā€” IIRC from my last lease itā€™s 180 for a third party and 90 for first party, probably changed since then). Call them to confirm, see if you can get an extension.

Good option for NYC.

What kinda rates on 60 and 72.

3.44 but you gotta read the disclosure. click on the link.

Not to be a hardass but clicking the link wouldā€™ve been easier than typing a whole post :joy:

Actually probably much faster to type that question than to click, read and hope to find the rates on an unknown website. :slight_smile:

So you havenā€™t clicked the link either :rofl:

On my phone, the 60 to 72 was just at the bottom. Had to scroll for refinance rates.
