Ok, I'll lay out my situation before I ask any questions... Repo 7/2/2008 SOL for OK is 5 years (so it expires in about 12 days!) Got a letter dated 7/7/2008 (within 5 days of repo) stating the sale would take place on or after 7/22/2008(more than 20 days after repo). That same letter also states the following: DH and I will owe the difference if they don't sell it for the full amount; We can get the vehicle back before sale date by paying the full amount we owe (not just the past due payments); We can get an explanation in writing of how they figured the amount owed by calling or writing only. This letter was sent to my mother's address (how they got that address I'll never know since all statements were coming to my home address for 4+ years). Side note-so now that address is attached to our reports. (removed from Equifax, Experian refused, pending TransUnion removal any day now) We never received anything else from HSBC regarding the sale... Both mine and DH reports both show a repo from HSBC Auto finance stating the account was transferred or sold to someone else-no balance information though. No collection agency has ever listed or contacted us about this. Credit Report: Equifax: $0 bal, balance date 9/2009, high limit $13,953 Comments 11/2007 I8, 4/2007 I2, Charged off account transferred or sold TransUnion: $0 bal, bal date 7/2008, high limit $18,306 Comments purchased by another lender Experian: nothing in the balance section, balance date 10/2008, High limit $18,306 Comments purchased by another lender, 9/2008 I, 8/2008 I, charge off account transferred to another office, last paid 1020/08 We originally financed this 8/2005 for $18,306. Why Chat, what are my options? Of course, Equifax is reporting the wrong high balance, and dates are wrong all over the place. I don't know how much we even owe (if any) since we never got anything else regarding the sale (at my mother's house or mine). I have started the Why Chat repo letters but haven't sent anything yet. I did get a copy of the CarFax report and it states repo was 8/7/2008 (it was actually 7/2008) and sold at auction on 8/25/2008. What to do what to do... It's all about the process...
