Latest Toyota Financial Services Reviews
I'd love a no star/save yourself rating for TFS. We have a loan with TFS. I made a payment online and we started getting calls about a late payment... turns out their system "reversed" our payment. The problem was, they withdrew the money from our account but did not credit it back (per the reversal). Now they say we are behind, but they still have that payment. We have called and called to clear the problem, have faxed bank statements and have received no confirmation of receipt and when we have called there is no record of our fax. When I spoke with one rep on the phone he directed me to the online customer service to enter the documents through our portal but the customer service... Read More
I wish there was an option for 0 stars. Twice now in 2 years time Toyota Financial has financially screwed me. The first time I had automatic payments set up. Had been working fine for over a year. Then suddenly I receive a message my payment didnt go through. Being responsible I went in and tried to make the payment manually. Again error message payment didnt go through. Tried paying manually again same message. Finally called went through all the annoying time wasting automated messages and prompts. Got to a person who said oh yeah your payment was made. Actually you made your payment 3xs. Luckily I had the money in my account to cover 3 car payments plus my other bills as I know not... Read More
I called to have my lease extended as we aren't able to get vehicle we want at this time. The Agent went ahead and extended our lease for 6 months. The idiot didn't tell me they were going to remove my banking information from the account and that the auto payments setup for the last 36 months would stop. I didn't notice the payment didn't come out of my bank until I got an alert from credit agency that Toyota Financial reported I was 30 days late. I immediately made payment and setup autopay again but they will not remove the 30 day late off my credit.
I cannot believe I am having this much trouble with a company as big as Toyota. I attempted to make a payment through their app but the payment would not schedule. This prompted me to call and speak with an agent who helped me schedule the payment. The next day I noticed that a second payment was pending in my bank account. I tried calling TFS but it was after hours. I had to wait until Monday to call because this happened Friday evening. On Monday the second payment came out of my bank account and TFS told me there was nothing they could do because it was my error. This was after I told them my story. Since then I have spoken to four agents and have received a slew of conflicting... Read More
They're really bad. I traded a Corolla in a month ago. The still havent processed the payment. They've clamed up on customers. Customer service is almost non existent. Avoid this company. They're dysfunctional as he'll.
This organization has the worst customer service I have ever experienced. My wife has been trying to change her now out of state title since we moved over 8 months ago. Toyota tells us they need information from DMV but we already sent them that information and they never processed it. They just sent it to the DMV without the title and now that the DMV has processed the paperwork and made it all official documents, they can’t send it back to Toyota. We have called Toyota 5 times (waiting for an hour to talk to someone each time) over the past 3 months and have received 5 different answers regarding our options and what to do. All 5 options we were given has failed. They provide incorrect... Read More
Toyota Financial Services has the worst customer service of any company I have ever dealt with. I bought a new truck in Arizona in September and tried to register it in California. The local DMV said that they required the original title in order to complete the registration. I spent 3 months trying to get the title from TFS to the CA DMV and they refused to do it, and I got a variety of responses from the TFS reps, including; they don't have the title, they don't deal with titles, I shouldn't need the title, I just need a power of attorney (completely wrong), and a few others. I even sent them a request for the title from the CA DMV and they did nothing. I eventually refinanced the loan... Read More
I am currently waiting for registration requirements fromToyota Financial Services and it is horrible because it’s been 5 months now. I moved from Texas to New York they can not provide the certified copy of title and letter to register in NY. i’m not using my car but still paying them monthly, im not sure how much penalty will I have because it is overdue. I’m not sure if they know the process of doing these requirements maybe it’s their first time.
Toyota Financial Services (TFS) has an extremely poor business practice that is negatively impacting leasing customers. This corporation is taking advantage of its customers in the worst way during the global pandemic. Currently, TFS has a substantial credit at the Tax Office of my hometown due to an overpayment made on our bill. Instead of requesting a refund, TFS wants me to pay them the full amount of the tax bill to TFS, over 5 times what we actually owe. Once TFS receives our payment they will request a refund from the tax office, only once they receive the refund from the tax office will they send us a possible refund check. TFS will not provide a time frame for this repayment nor... Read More
I ended a three-year lease with Toyota Financial Services and the whole process was tainted by their aggressive collection actions. I turned in my vehicle at lease-end, in pristine condition, and with 6000 miles to spare. That is a lot of value back to Toyota. In consideration of this, I asked them to waive the disposition fee. I also told them that I had lost my job due to the corona virus. They would have none of it and proceeded to pester me with collection calls me every single day (except weekends). All of my 36 payments were made on time but they rode me like a deadbeat for the $350. After speaking with them five times to no avail, I paid the balance in full. I will never use them... Read More
At this point, especially after reading other similar reviews. I don't know how this company has not been raided by the FBI for financial fraud. I have now contacted via phone and email for a month about a 4500 principal payment I made. Keep in mind they do not have an option where you can pay principal online. This is the only financial institution I have ever dealt with where you cannot pay principal online. You have to call that in or submit via message support. I have now contacted the 7x over this matter and every time I get the same answer. Please allow 3-5 business days. And every single time they do not apply the payment. This company is greedy and all they want to do is collect... Read More
I had a Toyota Prius C that was totaled by a drunk driver. The accident happened in July and our insurance sent Toyota a check to cover the loan balance and I have GAP insurance to pay for the remainder. This check was cashed by Toyota in September but Toyota is still charging me monthly payments. It is now October. Their website's help menu just gives me an error message so the only way to contact them is via phone. My insurance broker, insurance adjuster, wife, and I have been calling for months and get put on hold only to be hung up on after about 20 minutes or so. Again, we've been calling FOR MONTHS. I finally got through today and they said they haven't received this check (even... Read More
Living a nightmare with Toyota Financial.. I bought a toyota prius 2016 from Larry H Miller Toyota Lemon Grove in San Diego last year and sold it this year.. after that I canceled my Toyota Auto Care and should receive back U$2.905 dollars.. the thing is.. The dealership says they issued a check to toyota financial and that they should cash the check and write me a new one and send me. Toyota financial says that the check was for me and they received it and forwarded to me.. and to a wrong address.. So now one says that I should call the other one, and the other one says that I should call the one.. I am in the middle of this situation not knowing what to do and they don’t care at all......

These people are terrible. Do not finance here! I have tried to pay off the loan early and they will not accept electronic check from bank, wire payment or payment from computer. Only accept Cashier Check.......Once they receive the complete payment they will not release the title. Every day they say they will send Car Title, but so far I am still waiting, waiting & waiting. These people lie, mislead and avoid providing honest customer service. Do not make your car loan here!!!
This is the WORSE customer service I ever experienced. By brother died and I am trying to keep his car payments current. After spending 45 minutes on the phone, I finally got an actual person, They put me on hold for 10 minutes to determine if they were allowed to talk to me. I said I want to make a payment! Why wouldn't you talk to me? Then they proceed to tell me that I can't pay with a credit card because I am not 30 days late. Are you kidding me!!! So, I did not make a payment at all. You people are disgusting.
You are kidding???? OMG !!! Have tried now 4 times to have Toyota Financial change the due date for my monthly payment from the 5th of the month to the middle of the month (15th - 20th). My payments have shown over due since I got the car. Every time out of the 4 encounters with Toyota Financial, I brought my account to current status by paying the monthly amount + late fee and requested each time a change of due date, once online and as of today 3 times by telephone. The man I spoke to today at Toyota Financial (Chester) was so condescending and rude, I had to remind him I am the customer. I regret leasing this car from Toyota. If the due date is not moved, I will return the car and go... Read More

7 weeks after ending my lease and turning in my 2015 Toyota Highlander in excellent condition and I can not get the refund due me for one overpayment and credit for canceling extended warranties in a timely manner. Thus far I have spoken to 7 different people and still can not get anyone to tell me when I might expect my refund. Today I was on the phone for 90 minutes and spoke to 4 different people and still no satisfaction. The TSF agents are unable to even acknowledge that I have a credit balance due me but theY ABSOLUTELY REFUSE TO LET ME SPEAK TO ANYONE THAT CAN SETTLE THIS WITH ME! The customer service agents are always professional but totally unable or unwilling to resolve the... Read More
