Vermont Business Magazine Earlier today, North Star Leasing in Burlington took action to help alleviate the current stress its 3,800 customers are experiencing during this difficult time by offering the North Star Leasing Coronavirus (COVID-19) Deferred Payment Plan. The plan, being rolled out throughout the day, allows for customers to defer their next payment if they choose. The company will evaluate the program over the coming weeks to determine if a second deferment is warranted.
"We recognized the need to act and take this step for our customers in order to help them bridge the gap during these very stressful times," Dan Feeney, CEO said. "Being proactive and offering a little peace of mind to our customers is our top priority as we work through the developments of this outbreak. Our bank group and board fully support this extraordinary measure."
