after almost 20 years doing business with 1st Franklin I have decided to pay my loan off in 5 months and not do anymore business with you. My last request of $800 resulted in the surrender of an auto title for the add on to a $1200 outstanding loan, a total of $2000. I know my credit is not good but that's why I am at first franklin and not a bank. I have been good to first franklin just as they have been good to me. I have already refinanced a loan with another financial lender because of a denial on an emergency $300 loan when a family member died out of state. Now with this denial because I do not want to surrender an automobile title I plan to pay this loan off very soon and stop my business with you. I have 0nly 1 title on a very classic automobile that I may be considering selling and don't want it tied up. I have had a much larger loan with you 1st franklin with out the surrender of an automobile title, why now. I filed chapter 13 many many years ago and said I would never do that again and that I would pay 1st franklin off before I had to do it again if I ever had too witch I will not ever do again. I am very disappointed you would ask me for a title over a $2000 loan. I have much more to offer for collateral to secure a $2000 loan. So I am through with 1st franklin.
