I tally give her credit for being on top of my paper while her manager team was relaxed.I didn’t have a pleasant time with managers!Zelda, Was the reason why I stayed with woodside!All in All, I would definitely say too use WoodsideChrisChris ★★★★★ Truly a tale of two stories.For as long as I can remember, I dreamed of owning a Porsche. I've come close a few times over the years, but things never panned out. Finally, after selling my car, I was determined to get into one.Rates and financing in general are insane right now, but I was lucky to find Woodside. I've never shopped for cars in this specific category before, so the concept of exotic lending was lost on me — I had originally planned to go with my credit union.Then I met Chase at Woodside who helped me from my very casual initial inquiry, all the way to closing the deal with the dealership on my 992 C4S. It was quite the journey where the dealer was incredibly unresponsive and they were 4 hours away so it was not like I could pop in to say hello. What should've been a 1-2 day exchange, dragged on for over a week.Through it all, Chase kept me updated multiple times a day, sending me copies of what was sent to the dealer, and letting me know how they were not being very forthcoming with information they needed to move the deal forward. I was eager to close the deal by the weekend so I could fly up and drive the car down, but the dealer's lack of attention made me quite anxious about that. Chase, aware of my desire to get it closed ASAP, really went over the top with communication. He would respond late at night, early in the morning, even on weekends. I felt bad since I didn't expect a response on Sunday night lol.Despite all the hurdles, Chase was able to play critical role in helping me push this deal forward with the dealer and I couldn't be happier. Not only did I end up with a new car, but I also feel like I made a friend! While I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Woodside, my full vote of confidence goes to Chase. If you are interested in exploring their services, definitely request Chase because he won't let you down. Thanks, Chase!Anthony TrapizonaAnthony Trapizona ★★★★★ I never bought a car out of state before, let alone with needing bank to work with. Emily was amazing to work with, no complaints what so ever. She was able to answer any questions i had being this was my first time doing something like this! i will 100% be calling Emily again in the future for something else when time comes! Highly Recommend, i won't even look else whereJoecode CodeJoecode Code ★★★★★ The folks at Woodside Credit were very friendly....easy-to-work with. The entire process took approximately 5 business days to close the deal. This is my second rodeo with with them. I originally finance a Lambo Hurrican, and now I am also financing Lambo STO.sandra duvenecksandra duveneck ★★★★★ The individuals who assisted my family secure a vehicle loan were outstanding. They were timely, courteous , and knowledgable. I was purchasing a vehicle from out of state so I was a bit nervous. They helped me in every way and I'm very appreciative.cody owencody owen ★★★★★ I was looking for a car loan that was flexible with long term if need and short term if and when I could pay down faster woodside offered that the staff Xyrine Dapal was my loan consultant she was absolutely out standing she helped with all of my questions and this was all new to me so I had lots of those.
