Community One Credit Union

Wait 6 weeks to be paid on a loan!
I am a boat dealer in NC and one of my customers in Ohio was approved through this bank for a loan. The bank asked for the title before paying the loan. I said I would mail them the NC title signed over to the buyer as proof of ownership (the only way to prove ownership in NC). They said that was not good enough. They wanted me to submit the paperwork to the Ohio boat registration office and wait up to 6 weeks for the title to be issued and mailed to them before paying for the boat. I have been in this business for 10 years and I have never been asked for such a thing. They want me to let the boat leave my facility, sign over the title and then not pay me for 6 weeks!
I refused and I lost the sale. I tried talking to the supervisor several times and they would not budge. This is a clear case of someone not making a reasonable decision. I’ve worked with hundreds of banks and have never had this problem. Why would they not accept clear ownership in the title signed over to their customer as proof of ownership. They could have handled the Ohio registration if they wanted to make sure they are the lien holder like all other credit unions I deal with.
Would you wait 6 weeks after delivery to be paid if you were selling your car or boat? I think not!
