Ford Credit

Anyone else trade in their car with ford and get a email from ford credit saying your previous car has a past due balance?

I traded in my 08 GT over a year ago and I'm sure the finance people did their job and calculate the correct payoff, I got emails from ford credit saying my old car has a past due amount, I called the 800-727-7000 number and it's busy signal. What is going on?

I received 2 past due email notices today about a minute apart for my Fusion. I tried logging in with no luck, must be their server crashed or they were hacked.

This is exactly what happened with me. Something is def up because their 800 doesn't even ring just is busy, I've tried it several times now.

Thanks for the update. I got two of these e-mails this morning, when my most recent payment had been applied back on the 15th. They must've been hacked. If so, I sure hope everyone's personal info wasn't compromised.

It was weird getting that email because they just sent me a refund of $18 on it the other day.

Yep, must be a glitch; it had a variable in it in place of the car name. This was on a loan I paid off 2 years ago.

Just got the follow up email stating that it was an error:

"You are receiving this email in follow-up to a "Payment Reminder" email or emails you received today from us. The notes were sent in error and should be disregarded.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.
