Review content:
I felt like I had hit bottom- I had a husband (now EX) that screwed me and my credit over, and I needed a car, but no one would touch me because my credit was crap. My credit union turned me down, and even Lending tree wouldn't touch me. So I ended up going to Car City HOPING I could get financed there. The sales guy was really cool and didn't make me feel like I was ""just another person"". I wish I could remember his name, but e got me financed through Orbit Leasing, and I was thrilled. Okay.... I was happy but a little worried. I never had a lease before, and I didn't want to get screwed over because I was trying to rebuild my credit, and I was going to be a single mom soon, and I just didn't need the hassle. Seriously, I don't get the other reviews on here. My experience was not like the others. Everyone I spoke with was really cool to me. If I couldn't make my payment on the due date, I called them, and I had to tell them when exactly I was going to pay, and everything was great. I don't think I ever went past a week over my due date during the whole lease. There was one woman there who kinda acted a little like she was a hard @ss, but later on, she really grew on me. As long as I was upfront and honest, she was a total doll. She even explained the whole GPS thing to me. And really, it made sense. I NEVER wanted my car to get shut off, so knowing that the GPS was there, I made sure I always made my payment when it was due. And if I was going to be late, I always ALWAYS called in. In a way it helped me ""help me"" by keeping me on time. I usually spoke with either Robin or Toni. They always worked with me, and if I had to do it again, I would. These people treated me great. They didn't hold my hand because they didn't need to. I am a grown-up and I was the one who had the f'd up my own credit. It is what it is. I just paid my truck off (whoo hoo!) and now I also have this lease showing as always paid on time, with a zero balance one my once fried credit report. I have been busting rump trying to repair my credit over the past couple of years and this is helping my score a lot!!! I will probably go back to my credit union in the spring and see if I can get approved through them (if my score is high enough for them). If they won't, I will probably go back to Car City and get my financing done through Orbit again. It's hard to find people that will work with you the way that they worked with me, and I will happily go through them again. I'm sorry some of the other people didn't have the same experience as I did.
