NEW HDFS Payment Rules.....

Well I think a little revollt is in order here, Harley Davidson Financial Services Just changed it's rules. I owe about a grand on my 09 FXD and have always made my payments via my Bank account at no charge. Now you are required to pay through the HDFS website, unless I sign up for Direct Scheduled Payments (no service fee) through the HDFS site, there will be a 6 dollar charge made when I pay through them. A I am on a fixed Income and prefer a bit of flexibility on my payment schedule. So it looks like I'll just go back to writing a paper check at my convenience. Which is more Labor and time for the Bank... I just don't get it. Has Greed just taken over. Your thoughts??

Oh really, saving 6 bucks I don't have to spend is being greedy? That pays for a Synthetic Oil Change.

If you can't afford to make the payments you can't afford the bike....just because YOU are on a fixed income doesn't mean the world is going to kiss your butt and do things for free.

In any case, an Electronic Transfer is an Electronic Transfer.....why a 6 dollar charge on one and not the other. But then folks will be good little trained citizens and go along for the ride.... I'll prefer paying on my terms.
