Great phone help to register online loan account & autopay
I wanted to set up autopay for my car loan before receiving loan information by mail. Representative #518993 sent me the information that I needed by email and gave me a thorough description of the information being sent. Using the emailed information I was able to successfully access my account and set up monthly autopayment. Thanks for the help!

Tried to set up our account
Tried to set up our account - user name and password with security questions. When I asked for the text code to get in to arrange payments, your system would not allow entry despite sending the same code at least 3 times. (that doesn't sound safe to me).

No Title Received for My Lease Buyout
I bought my car at the end of a lease. It's 5 months and Santander has failed to provide a title that allows me to sell the SUV. I have written dozens of emails, sent certified letters, and spoke to several reps. Each rep has no idea of the account history and will not transfer the call to a supervisor. I will never lease another product that involves this company. They are totally disinterested in assisting customers. UPDATE: Santander responded publicly, but the "help" was a phone number that routed me to a dial tree with no path to a live representative. I was unable to reach a person, or obtain a case number, title-resolution contact, or ship date. The title remains unresolved after 5+ months. What is needed now is a direct phone number to a live title-resolution representative who has authority to reissue the title and complete the assignment to my company New World Marine, Inc., along with a case number and confirmed ship date. UPDATE 2: As there is still no response from Santander, I filed a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Agency (CFPB), the lead US government's agency that protects consumers in the financial marketplace.

Loan at 16.78% interest, what a ripoff
I bought a 2020 Honda with a Santander US loan at 16.78% interest. I am using my Social Security money to pay off the loan, and this is where Santander earns a one-star review. I can only make payments toward the principal on the 22nd, when my regular $650 payment is deducted from my bank account because Santander charges daily interest. Despite this being my second loan with them and having paid off the first, they still charge me almost 17% interest with a 700 credit score. So, stay away from this bank; they don’t help you at all. It’s all about how they can rip you off. I am a senior Hispanic woman using my retirement money to pay off a shark loan from Santander

Hello Veronica! Thank you so much for taking the time to provide your feedback and we hate that you feel this way. Please keep in mind that the type of loans that we offer are simple interest which could be very beneficial depending on how payments are being made throughout the life of the loan. Please click here https://santanderconsumerusa.com/learning-center to check out our "How Simple Interest Contracts Work" video in our Video Gallery. We hope this helps at understanding simple interest. If you still have questions or concerns and would like to speak with a specialist Trustpilot has sent you an email requesting additional info, or you may contact us at 888.222.4227.
