Frequently Asked Questions
Does Hopkins Management Group really not check your credit in Oklahoma?
HMG advertises "no credit check" and "bad credit okay" for their rent-to-own financing in Oklahoma. While they may not run a traditional hard credit inquiry before approving you, this does not mean your credit is safe. HMG reports payment activity to credit bureaus, meaning late or missed payments will appear on your credit report and damage your score.
Can HMG hurt my credit score in Oklahoma?
Yes. Despite marketing claims that their financing "will not hurt your credit," Hopkins Management Group reports negative payment history to credit bureaus. If you fall behind on payments for a portable building or trailer in Oklahoma, it can result in derogatory marks on your credit report that remain for up to seven years.
How do I file a complaint against HMG in Oklahoma?
You can file a complaint with the Oklahoma Attorney General by visiting their website or calling 1-833-681-1895. You should also file complaints with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). Each complaint creates a public record and increases regulatory scrutiny.
What rent-to-own products does HMG offer in Oklahoma?
In Oklahoma, Hopkins Management Group offers rent-to-own financing for portable buildings (including storage sheds) and trailers (utility, gooseneck, dump, and cargo trailers). All products are marketed with claims like "no credit check" and "will not hurt your credit."
What are my rights under Oklahoma consumer protection law?
Oklahoma Consumer Protection Act prohibits deceptive trade practices. If HMG made misleading claims about credit reporting when you signed your agreement, this may constitute a deceptive trade practice under Oklahoma law. You have the right to file complaints with state agencies and may be entitled to remedies including damages.
Should I sign a rent-to-own agreement with Hopkins Management Group in Oklahoma?
Before signing any rent-to-own agreement with HMG in Oklahoma, understand that despite their marketing, your payment history may be reported to credit bureaus.
