      Do not finance anything with Sunwest. They are here only for the money and offer no help to their customers. God forbid you loose your job or go through any hardship while doing business with them. You will become worthless to them without money or in a tough situation. Their customer service is subpar, it takes about 30 minutes to talk to someone if youre lucky. Be prepared to call a few times because youll get hung up on 2 or 3 times. I have been to 2 locations here in AZ and have had the worst experiences. Which led me to never want to step foot in there again. The people over the counter will look at you like if youre are stupid. They are very nonchalant and rude. Dont even get me started with the fees, literally for everything. This includes making payments or asking for extensions. Lastly, their app is garbage and seems ****** complicated for the few features it actually has. Be prepared for it to be down most of the time.
