My car got towed because of late payment on car installment. Anyone knows how much is the towing fee? And it's really very infuriating, GE Money just called me on Monday (12 Jan 09) and I told them I had sent out the cheque. They should know it takes a few days to receive and clear cheque, right? Anyway, the representative who called me on Monday, sounds like a loanshark!
The person who towed the car even wanted start a fight with my uncle. So uncivilised!!!!!!! I cannot believe GE Money actually hire barbarians to work for them.

any idea?
not only tow charges, also parking there, can work out to few hundred.
the man want to start fight is that Money is already on their lips, who not want to fight, the letter to repro you car has been send out via Fax to all tow companies in town, who see it first who tow it, who get to collect money.
oh darn.. stupid barbaric tow-ers!! so the fees and charges.. pay to GE Money or to the barbarians?
no money don't buy
u sound like a car tow-er to me cos u sound hurt.
well i paid in full for my car so i got no worries getting my car towed like you sir
so u insulting poor people in sg cos u think u f rich la.
what goes around, comes around.
usually if you send cheque to GE, should be OK, but is it full without further outstanding, if there is, you need to clear all outstanding before your car can be return to you, they will con't claim the parking charges, very high one,
these are loan shark with lic,
they can force sell you car, claim all their bills according to their rate.
if u can afford a car in sg i don't think u are poor.. but manage ur wealth properly
this is what u get from late payment.
thanks zaxis, u've been a great help.
unlike some insignificant-he-thought-he-is-rich people talking something random.
pleased to inform you dat this has been one of the featured threads..
time will be bad till 2011
cut lost, short pain, sell if do not really need , use public transport, or taxi
yes,i agree with u..
i know proper financial planning is very important esp in these times.. guess what? my previous investment failed and i incurred lots of losses. i just switched job last july and its commission based. suddenly all the financial giants started crumbling which affected most industries.
not askin for sympathy cos it is not uncommon around. just that many things are beyond my control.
maybe its because of the current economic climate.
i guess there are more people missing payments.
how many payments did you miss?
yea.. and i understand in the shoes of the creditors that they wan their money back.
but i also hope they understand the current economic turmoil and give more grace time to their debtors rather than making them pay unneccessary charges which add on to their financial burden. how does this makes the situation better?
btw.. i missed 2 payments..
may i ask what industry are you in?
financial industry..

when it comes to money, there is no such thing as grace time in this world.
