Premier Plan
The Premier Plan is a unique opportunity that we at Premier CDJR of new Orleans can offer as a result of our special relationship with the Credit Acceptance Corporation. The CAC reports directly to the Credit Bureau, meaning the payments you make on your new vehicle go directly to improving your credit score. After 6 months you should begin to see significant results and might even qualify for an upgrade, and after 12 months your credit score should allow you to qualify for better loans and a better vehicle!
Customer Guidelines for the Premier Plan
- Make all your payments on time.
- Deposit all funds in your bank. A bank statement is proof of income. Any deposits are considered income, so if you make money on the side, deposit into your account first then withdraw it.
- Don’t write a bad check.
- Don’t increase your debt, and keep credit cards under %50.
- Maintain a current proof of residency and have bills delivered to that address.
- Monitor your credit score and address any discrepancies quickly.
- Payoff any outstanding debt if possible or work with lender on payment plan. Watch out for Lender agreements which have you pay less than what you owe, this information will be recorded on your credit score and could be detrimental to the entire process.
