Carvana canceled my order for a car and then took my money even though they canceled the order. Needing help to get the $ back.:
I tried to purchase a car from Carvana online. I went through their online checkout process and gave authorization for them to deduct the amount of the purchase from my bank account.
Their staff member then called me the next day to tell me that I was not able to buy the car as I have a foreign drivers license and they are only willing to accept a US issues drivers license. He said the order had to be canceled and it was confirmed as canceled.
Then three days later Carvana deducted the full amount of the purchase from my bank account ($14,106.16). It was their responsibility to cancel the upcoming payment when they canceled the order. Now they have wrongly taken this money from me and will not give it back to me. I am fighting to get my money back to no avail. They have caused me and continue to cause me stress and financial hardship as each day goes by that they wrongly hold onto my money and do not return it to me.
I have lodged a complaint with BBB and in addition to recovering the sum I also want to seek additional damages in the way of a daily interest charge for each day they’ve held my money. Can I do this? And what kind of attorney would I call? Thanks
Sheri Ann’s answer:
Asking for daily interest is a reasonable ask. If you were to go to court and get a judgment against the company, the judgment would automatically apply a certain amount of interest to your recovery.
Any litigation attorney would be able to take on your case. You should also file a complaint with the department of business and industry’s Nevada Consumers Affairs Unit.
How to sue the correct person/entity?: I filed a suit in small claims against my former property manager at Village at Desert Lakes property in Las Vegas NV, for the return of my rental deposit. They counter sued for $1200 claiming damages for normal wear and tear items. This is a fraud! We (husband and I) lived there for almost five years. I followed the proper process showed up for court date and the judge said I needed to amend my suit because the property manager did not own the property and “she didn’t know who Village at Desert Lakes was.” So now I did some legwork and found out the property is owned by a company called MG properties headed by some billionaire but they are based in San Diego CA. When I amend the suit do I put the San Diego address? Do I include the owners name of MG properties? I didn’t live in San Diego I lived here in Las Vegas so I’m super confused and frustrated and just want to settle all this. Can you please help?
Sheri Ann’s answer: You need to follow the Nevada Rules of Civil Procedure (NRCP) to make sure you serve the summons and complaint correctly. The rule you need to look at is NRCP 4.2(c). You can find the court rules at https://www.leg.state.nv.us/Division/Legal/LawL... and you can find out who the corporation's registered agent is by looking it up here: https://esos.nv.gov/EntitySearch/OnlineEntitySe...
Will I get my taxes taken for unpaid auto loans from bank?: I was shown a 15k loan for a 14k car read all the paperwork over with my parents and agreed after paying for months my app said I had a 25k loan on a 14k car after paying 14k and trying to get out of the contract the car got repossessed and sold and now they said they’re going after my taxes if I don’t set up a plan to pay the rest is this possible to happen? Or are they gaslighting me
Sheri Ann’s answer:
If the loan company initiates a lawsuit and gets a judgment against you, then they could go after any asset you have.
You should have a lawyer take a look at your situation. Also, if you were lied to about your car loan, consider filing a complaint with the Nevada Consumer Affairs Unit or with the Nevada AG’s office.
