Credit card companies can't touch your bank account. They can threaten and do many other things like garnish your wages (if you have a job), send you to collections, etc, but they can't take money from your bank account. Creditor judgments can be executed as bank account levies in every state. The only exception in a very few states are accounts of married couples that are held as TBE. However, all SS, VA, RRB, and most private pensions and all government disability, supplemental income, etc. are exempt from garnishment for creditor debt in all states. Please be advised, SS, VA, RRB, and other retirement and disability benefits should NEVER be commingled with other funds in bank accounts. When such benefits are mixed with other income the creditor can request the account be frozen and the judge rule on what portion of funds are legally exempt.

If you are paying can they reposses?

Vehicles are put up for repossession in self-help states only after the loan has been defaulted upon. Provided you have made all of your payments, and these payments have been on time per the contract, then no. However, if you have ever been late on a payment, and you fall behind at anytime, the contract in most cases has been defaulted, and repossession may proceed. That a lender does not repossess every time a borrower falls behind is a testament to two things: one, it is an expensive and complicated process to repossess a vehicle; and two, they understand that people fall behind and are willing to allow people to pay current. Their interest afterall is the contract. They do not really want your vehicle; they want the payment.


Can a bank repossess if you are making the agreed upon partial payments?

They can repo anytime you are in DEFAULT of the contract. 2010-09-21: Also, in addition to the answer: While the bank can reposses when the repo clause comes into play, I don't know of any instance that once a bank agreed upon partial payments, they reneged and repo'd the vehicle anyway. Remember: they'd rather have the money than the car. If it comes to haveing it repo'd through a repo company, the bank would still rather have their money than share it with a repo company. The person at the bank that you speak to is being watched by the bank manager, etc., blah blah, and he or she would rather keep good information on the books. He or she, as far as my experience, will help you in your situation.
