It felt like I am being interrogated
It felt like I am being interrogated. The person who called my bank to verify made me embarrassed. I felt I should have never done this.

Dear Customer,
We are sorry for any inconvenience that you've had encountered.
Before we fund a loan, we advise our customers to either pay off the loan in full or to pay as much as you can in order to reduce the principal (original debt incurred) as quickly as possible in order to minimize the total cost of the loan. Additionally, we do not charge any prepayment penalties when you pay your loan early.
If you go to our website under Frequently Asked Questions, we provide our customers with answers that may address your concern.
We also provide them special notices like ""These loans are designed to assist you in meeting your short-term financial needs, and it is not intended to be a long-term financial solution.""
First Loan is committed to promptly resolving customers' issue. If your concern is still not resolved, kindly contact us at (855)-625-8292 so we can best assist you.
Sincerely yours,
First Loan
Customer Satisfaction Team
