Look them up online, I'm sure they'll have an 800 number to call and ask.
I hate to be Mr.Obvious, but it's the best answer I could think of."
Amanda replied: "Most banks that finance auto loans will accept payments in person, its one of their services they provide to get you in the door to offer you other products and services, like savings and checking accounts or CD's.
The next time you drive by a Fifth Third branch, stop and ask. They'll probably say yes."
Fifth Third Bank - Unsolicited credit card? I received a credit card from fifth third bank, without ever applying for one. Last week, my wife went to their local branch and applied for auto loan (and put me as a cosigner). I'm guessing the same branch manager processed my card. But there was no talk about credit card whatsoever. Could the bank manager apply for a credit card for me, without my or my wife's consent or even telling us about it??? Is this a case of identity theft?
I would appreciate your advise on what to do.
Thanks!

Banks sometimes have contests involving opening new credit card accounts. It is actually rather common to find a credit card account opened up along with the other transaction. It's not ID theft; it's miscommunication.
If you don't want the account, just send a letter to the bank telling them that you did not apply and do not want the account. Request written confirmation that the account is closed and 0 balance."
Am I eligible for an auto loan? I am in desperate need of a car. I am 18 years old, I currently work at McDonald's (it's the only place close enough to walk) and make $7.15 an hour, roughly $200.00 a week. I've been working since late October and I would like a car so that I can attend college and find a better job.
I was going to save up and settle for a cheap $1,000-$2,000 car until I could afford a down payment for a brand new car but instead I've decided to get a nice used car and try to apply for an auto loan from my bank (fifth-third). But, I have a feeling my situation will keep from getting the loan. =(
So, my question is, does anyone think/know if I am eligible for a loan, if not, does anyone have any ideas? Thanks.
P.S.
don't tell me to ask my bank, I will tomorrow =)

I'd personally just find a used minivan/four door or whatever being sold by an old lady that drove it like a grandma, cheap on insurance too. around a the year 2000 or so. you should be able to find one around 4G or so., it's fine if it has 100000 miles on it, they go for a good 250000 miles +.
I beg you to find another financial institution, fifth third (I know I'm not supposto bash on here, but) rapes you on their fees.
Yes people will give you money for anything, if you sign your life away, a co-signer helps too. that's not the problem, just make sure you can afford the payments if you decide to go that way and that there is some kind of unemployment stipulation to where if you loose your job your credit doesn't go down the crapper.
P.S. Please don't ask your bank, find a credit union or anything."

Zachary F replied: "how is your credit? If your credit score is good you might be able to get a loan. Also do you have anyone who could cosign for the loan. This would help a lot but iff you dont and your credit is bad then your pretty much outta luck and you should go with your fist plan"
fire4511 replied: "In your situation, you can not handle much more than a $200 a month payment. You also have to allow for insurance and gas!
You were on the right track in thinking of saving your money and buying an older car for transportation!
Good luck!"

C R replied: "Whats your credit score??
how much can you afford to put down as a down payment?
how much can you afford to pay each month??
What type of car are you wanting??
Have you check on the cost of insurance??
My BF got a good car from "why pay sicker price"
she got an awesome deal on a great car...
