    Mr. ***** spoke with Tower's Area Supervisor at approximately 3pm yesterday. An Area Supervisor at Tower has operational jurisdiction over all of their branches. It appears Mr. ***** was not satisfied with our Area Supervisor's decisions regarding his account, which are final. My review concludes there was no inappropriate actions by Tower.

    They are great when you are great but if you miss a payment they are like stalkers and aren't afraid to show up at your door and harass your kids. They aren't afraid to call you repeatedly at work even if you request they don't. They aren't afraid to call your family members or call you 15 times in a row repeatedly until you answer. Is this even legal? I think they should pay me for the stress.

    Tower policy is to attempt to work with any customer that is experiencing temporary difficulties. ********* in this process is an active two-way line of communication. In this case, my review reveals that only Tower is attempting to resolve the issue.

    I am just going to very honest about this review with Tower Loan. I signed the paperwork for my loan in 2023 around ***** started experiencing financial hardship while paying 168 monthly payment to my account that they stated they didn't receive but I was looking at my account and it was taken out. I contacted them to see if I could get my payments lowered or pay them in half because they had to be sent in between the 4th and 15th. So a few months after and fell behind on another bill. I was offered to renew the loan in December of 2023 which was perfect for the time of year under the Manager ***** S/W ******* Branch (who no longer works with the company as she was terminated). I was told over the phone that the renewal would allow me space and time until Feb 2024 which at the time was fine but of course life has no blue print. In the midst of signing my sanity away she said my payments are now $197 I didn't know my payments would increase you never said that they would increase I was looking to decrease" and mind you I had already started signing these papers half way through. So for my first Feb 2024 payment I wasn't able to make it. Fast forward I am only 9 months in on my renewed loan and currently playing catch up. Life's hardships have increased everything's HIGH and so is my bill I'm in on about 4 thousand dollars due and as of today $699 behind and most of these payments were because of my health and not being able to work to even make the payments. I recently just made a payment in August which was put towards a missed payment. September I was out sick on bedrest not working at all I have done a deferral for payment and nothing else is helping I can't afford twice a month payments which I started doing but it was hard. I told them today I could bring a payment on the 17th from my check but she wants it by the 14th and I don't have anyone else I can borrow from to secure this payment so after that I'm sure they'll send me in for garnishment. I'm depressed.

    Tower attempts to work with any customer experiencing temporary difficulties. My review of the account comments indicate Tower has attempted to work with the borrower. Tower originates loans in compliance with Mississippi and Federal law. All loans are voluntary and a borrower may cancel an origination at any time during the loan process. Ms. ****** was fully informed of the terms and conditions associated with her loan.

    I have work with Tower Loans for years and now this office on **********************************************************************************************************************. Has been very unprofessional in the last few months, where there are disrespectful harassing customers making threats to file civil litigation.When people are still making their payments. Bullying to the point where they tried to make me lose my job does not respect chain a command. Manipulation also retaliation. This particular office is not even listed.

    I have reviewed the two accounts referred to in this complaint. It appears the Branch Manager has intervened and will service the accounts going forward. However, I do not see any activity that would be deemed as bullying or harassing.

    I have 2 accounts in good standing with this company. Have NEVER missed a payment and they harass me in the same manner as someone who had missed many monthly payments. I have nicely questioned this practice in the past and was told that it wouldn't happen again, yet it has again. So today, it aggravated me and while I was trying to voice a complaint to the manager, he literally put me on hold the entire time I was talking, making it very evident he had ZERO interest in hearing how I felt as a customer that is in GOOD STANDING with their company and when I questioned him on what I said to see if he even heard a bit of it, he laughed and said "well it was a lot" that is what sent me! It was never a "I understand how you feel, but I have to call this much", zero explanation, NOTHING!! They really make GOOD customers want to NEVER do business with them again! This is when I told him I would NEVER recommend them to anyone and NEVER do business with them again... he didn't care about that either, told me "Ok, great, have a good day and hung up! As a manager myself, this is BAD BAD business practices! Even if you can't fix the problem, even if there is zero you can do, you at the VERY LEAST "act" like you care what a GOOD customer feels like is being done to them, smh! You would think they cared about retaining good customers who PAY THEIR BILLS EVERY MONTH and about ensuring they would want to do business with them again, this office obviously does not! I cannot speak on other locations. There are at least 2 nice employees in that office that I've dealt with, but the way the "manager" dealt with my VALID complaint was complete TRASH! All that I wanted was to feel like I was being heard and that I had a valid complaint, again.. he could have cared less!! A little bit of "I understand you're upset" goes a long way! Maybe the training these "managers" are receiving need to be revisited!

    In general, Tower will attempt to contact customers that have a payment due in an attempt to help the customer from incurring a late charge. In some cases customers take offense to these reminder calls. My review of the account records in this case do not indicate any wrongdoing by Tower.

    My estranged sister has a loan through them and was late on a payment. They called ME 2 x in less than an hour trying to reach her. They also called my other sisters husband. I am not associated with this acct in ANY way and felt harassed by them. Not even sure how they got my name and number but its bad practice and should be illegal to call family members over a short term installment loan that prolly has incredibly predatory interest rates.

    Without the name of the actual account holder my response if based on Tower policy. Tower attempts to work with any customer that is experiencing temporary difficulties; when that customer does not maintain an active line of communication Tower will contact persons listed by the customer as a personal reference or persons with a high probability of being in contact with the customer that are obtained from a commonly used collection tool. In either case, once a non-signer asks Tower not to contact them, Tower will cease communication with that person.

    Their electronic payment system is terrible. Rather than helping me, **** (the employee) told me "eat me". I have no access to my account or statements. Insane company!

    My review of account comments do not support ******************** allegations, in fact, they are to the contrary. On September 10, 2024 **************** contacted Tower and was combative from the onset; he was upset that he was unable to access Tower's online payment portal. When it was explained to him the reason the online payment portal was no longer an option for him, he threatened "legal" action against Tower. He was advised the ways he could make payment and the Branch Manager ended the conversation. There has been no wrongdoing by Tower in this matter.

    Customer Service rep are rude and not clear on their own policies. They will come to your house for an $80 payment and claim that they can legally do that. They will also deny you their own policies at their own discretion without notice.

    I have reviewed the account comments of the account in question. There has been no wrong doing by Tower. In general, most account issues are avoidable when a two-way line of communication is maintained. Tower has attempted to maintain communication.

    At first the branch in ********** told me I was approved for 400$ I originally asked for 1500$ so i accepted it after being harassed for months about a guaranteed approval and then after i verified my income which was roughly about 3500 a month instead of 4500 that I put on the application they denied me?! After I depended on this loan I will be filing a complaint because I was told I was approved weeks ago!
