BMW FINANCIAL SERVICES TO ACCOMMODATE HURRICANE VICTIMS WITH FLEXIBLE PAYMENT OPTIONS
09/01/2005
Dublin, OH - September 1, 2005... Nearly 5,000 customers of BMW Financial Services in four states hit by Hurricane Katrina should not have to worry about making their car payments on time. In an attempt to alleviate at least a small part of the financial and emotional burden suffered by hurricane victims, BMW FS will work with those customers on flexible payment arrangements.
About 4,800 BMW FS customers in parts of Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida are encouraged to contact the customer call center at 800-578-5000 at their convenience to discuss a payment option appropriate to their specific circumstances.
"In light of the tragedy and destruction left in the wake of this natural disaster, we want to be sure that our customers affected by Katrina do not experience any additional anxiety over late or missed car payments," said Ed Robinson, chief executive officer for the BMW Financial Services, Americas Region. "We will work with each and every one individually - customers with leases and retail contracts alike - to arrive at a suitable arrangement."
