I was happy to get approved but before I signed I specifically asked about this loan going on my personal credit. The rep said it would not. After I received my funding about a week later- I get an email advising me of the complete opposite. I am totally disappointed. Today another rep basically said in an email reply it was too bad their policy changed after the fact.
