loaning bank sent to me, it says I loaned for 400xx CAD,after my calculation with
the monthly payment, it's a 80 months terms loan. I think I was fooled by them
again~~~ I clearly made sure when I sign my papers, it's 60 months term, and
the numbers are all correct.

DK how this happened, I w'll figure it out after my final exam.
If I find out it's some kinda dirty work they are doing, I'll let everyone know.
My vote is to consider enlisting the help of knowledgeable local people
with your interests in mind.

One stop might be the provincial Consumer Protection department
A loans officer at your bank branch might be able to help sort through the
differences between your understanding of the deal and what went down
on paper.

I'm not sure whether the finance side of automobiles is within their scope,
but another resource might be the Automobile Protection Agency. Phil Edmunston,
the author of Lemon-Aid is a long-time campaigner for consumer rights.

One of these organizations may be able to suggest legal counsel who could
give you an idea of your remedies. Sometimes nothing more than a letter from
a lawyer can set restitution in motion.

Despite the time since the purchase, get started tomorrow morning.

I can't believe you guys. How can you sit there in finance, with the contract right in front of you and not READ it. Did you just sign by the X's as they distracted you with their 'I'm your best friend' b.s. small talk? That piece of paper is more important than the car. It represents the hours/days/weeks you will have to work at your job (you most likely despise), every month for 4-6 yrs to drive a car. You should sit there, slow the sale process, and make them explain at least most of those numbers to you. Even at the risk of offending them, make them prove they are not screwing you.

Wise words, but the Red Mist often prevails.

Glad to help.

Another thought is that there may be a media ombudsman in your vicinity.

In Edmonton, one such resource is Global TV's Trouble Shooter. A TV personality
whose assignment is to look into consumer complaints with a view to
bringing about some kind of satisfactory resolution for cases where
wrongs occured.

Edit: SP
