I used Upgrade due to needing a loan immediately, I was approved within 30 minutes and I believe the funds hit my account same day or next day. Upgrade was available for me to utilize when I needed it most. The only con is the interest rate which is based on your credit score which is understanding but the interest rate is fairly high. However, they do provide you with information as to how much interest you will accrue based off when you pay it off. The monthly payments are super affordable as well. I would highly recommend, I would say proceed with caution due to the interest rate.

I applied for a loan after receiving an offer on their site, subsequent to being approved for a credit card that was 2X my previous high limit. After submitting the docs needed online (also easy), I received my loan when was 3X my previous high credit line. I had my funds in my account within 3 days after approval, and the auto-debit feature makes it virtually impossible to miss a payment. Overall I am beyond happy with my Upgrade experience, and will continue to use their services.

I had applied to my bank for a consolidation loan two or three weeks before and was given a ridiculous interest rate and a lower amount than I requested. And it took days to find out any information on my loan. I took a chance with upgrade and in 24 hours had approval and money in the bank, within 48 hours my credit cards were paid off. And also my interest rate was more than half of what my bank had offered. I am very satisfied .

I receive the offer in CreditKarma. I hesitated to review the offer, but Im glad I did. Interest rate is acceptable, the process was fast. Upgrade fulfill what was offer! Better than a regular bank, no stressful paperwork, easy to apply, funds were deposited as promised in 2 business days. Great experience to me and helping with my finances. I recommend Upgrade

In one instance I needed to finance an emergency roof repair. Thankfully, I was approved in minutes and my loan was I. My bank within 48 hours. After a year of on time payments, the next year my ceiling caved in from a/c condensation. Again Upgrade financed my home repair. Affordable payments helped me save my home. Upgrade is a valuable resource!

I currently have an Upgrade card with a $4k balance. When I received a preapproval for a loan (cs 643) and credit card balances that exceeded $20k, I was really hesitant because I didn’t want a hit on my credit then receive a denial. After a couple of weeks, I applied and was immediately approved for $20k loan. Had I know it was that easy, I would’ve applied for slightly more, but I paid off 4 of my high interest cc and my Upgrade card. With such a low repay amount for the loan, I can double up & pay if off faster. Thank you Upgrade!

Overall very good experience. The one strange thing is that I didn't know that the loan was being funded by the Pennsylvania Credit Union. So, the funding could have occurred much earlier than it did. I kept checking the website, and it kept asking me IF I wanted to join the Pennsylvania Credit Union, and since I don't live in PA, I have no need of that. I even called Upgrade, and was told "everything was in order and the loan should be funded very soon. Only later did I call back again, and find out that in order to get this loan, I needed to join that credit union. And it had a $20 fee to start, but the rep said that Upgrade would cover it. So, my recommendation is that when you have an institution funding a loan, that you clearly state that the consumer MUST join in order to get the loan. And note that any joining fees will be waived. That would speed the process up; cut down on customer service phone calls, and the consumer would appreciate it.

Joseph King ,

My interactions with their employees have been positive but their loan sign up system seems a little clunky. I applied for the loan and signed up for PenFed on December 21st. I received a call from Upgrade around December 30th thru January 2nd who advised my sign up for PenFed sign up didn't register and the person I spoke to said they would update their system. I received another call on January 5th about the same issue and was advised that this time it was noted. The funds finally cleared on January 8th. The calls weren't unpleasant and their employees were helpful, but it appears there could be some issues with capturing all the relevant information at the time of sign up.

I like upgrade because it gives me a chance when nobody will a chance to consolidate my credit cards that was killing me . The process is easy and fast , And it gives me a completely Lay out about my loan and how the payment Is going to be .and it’s affordable . They saw that My payments history was excellent despite the fact that my credit cards were high and they give me that chance to run with it. I can’t say that there’s anything that I don’t like about them

I saw an offer on Credit Karma and was pre-approved. Once I applied the approval followed thru quickly and in a matter of a couple of days; my credit cards were paid off and now I have consolidated my bills with no hassle. Easy, clear and concise. Agent called and confirmed my information was very professional, cordial and assisted me with my concerns and questions. I will be recommending Upgrade with my friends and family. Thank you.

So it wasn’t as quick and easy as I hoped - I had to provide several different paystubs and W2s to verify my income, due to weird stuff with my company last year - but honestly it was still waaaaay easier than getting a loan from most lenders. Got a good rate from an established credit union, auttomatic payments, and had the funds within a couple days of approval. Would definitely recommend for personal loans.

First off I would like to think Upgrade for approving my loan. I couldn’t get a loan from my bank and every other loan offer was Super high Interest and APR. The process was easy the customer service was awesome!! I will recommend any of my friends or family members looking for a loan to Upgrade. Again thank you very much for approving my loan. I am on the way to financial stability, lower monthly payments and paying way less in interest with no more minimum payments!! I’m so thankful and excited for this new chapter in my life!! Thank you from bottom of my heart Upgrade!!!

My experience with Upgrade was super great. The first processes were done in less than 30 minutes. Then I went to bed and by the morning when I went to check I was approved. I got approved for an amount that I asked for. It took less than 4 days to received my money... I was very thankful I was able to pay off some bills. Upgrade is a very good company and I would recommend them to anyone.

when i first thought of taking out a loan for a large purchase I was hesitant thinking these peoples were going to rake me over the coals since I had some blemishes on my credit report. Overall, everyone I encountered was professional and kind. They explained all loan aspects to my satisfaction and I am very pleased to know that I can move forward without worrying. The terms of the loan was fair and manageable.

My experience with Upgrade has been magnificent. The easy online application took only a few minutes to complete and nothing about the process was mysterious or confusing. A representative called to ask if I had any questions. He was courteous and informative. The entire process took less than three days from application to funding. It was a simple, comfortable experience through out the process.

The process was essentially seamless meaning I submitted my information and I was told I have a matching lender who could do the loan based on my credit file. Once the remaining identifiable parts were addressed the funds were immediately deposited into my checking account and before I knew it the loan process had been finalized. Great customer service and attention to details on both sides of the process.

My husband and I are very pleased with our experience with this company. We had debated on applying for 2 months with our soft inquiry stating we were approved. We finally decided to apply on 4/19/19. We received a email on 4/20/19 that we were approved and the money was in our bank account and ready to use on 4/24/19. Best experience ever in a loan process!

I received an email offer pre approval for a personal loan applied quickly to see what my money offer and terms would be they offered several $1000 more and $1000 less than I applied for with 36 month and 60 month repay options so the flexibility and decision was easy for me . The also moved my month repay date each month so accommodate my pay day schedule. I highly recommend Upgrade for all of your personal loans needs!

The process was quick and easy. I was approved for a debt con loan 1st, however the system would not accept the creditors information to be paid off. I had to do a personally loan. The difference between the two loan was the interest rate. Over all the process was still very quick and easy to do.
