Everything was easy to do and easy to understand. However, your interest rates are very high. I'm trying to get rid of high interest credit cards, but you interest rates are just as high... only. 0.05% lower. 25.94% interest rates are highway robbery for people trying to climb their way out of debt!

The positive about this card is that it is a Great second chance card! I honestly didn’t think I’d get approved The process was simple and relatively quick! Don’t go crazy though because then it ends up being your worst enemy! My advice would be keep it for emergencies only. Pay it off after every usage. It’s a great option to have in your wallet! Why am I telling you this? Everything I’m telling you I’ve done the opposite! If you don’t pay as you go, the interest rate will kill you! I gave it a 2 because the customer service agents really are not knowledgeable in their product. I would still have my card if it weren’t for all of the misinformed information and agents not doing their job correctly. I did an arrangement After I made the first payment of the arrangement I was already in Default The representative didn’t enter it in correctly. I had made a proposition And instead of the agent letting me know of the counter offer which I could’ve done he kept quiet until it was too late. It has the potential for higher stars, the employees have to get it together

Easy, quick process to apply! Quick processing time for approval and payments to debtors. I can’t wait to make 1 monthly payment instead of 5 and be well on my way to debt free.

What can I say, "fast turn around". I received a loan to pay of credit card debt. Credit card companies received their payment within a couple of days. Now I'm on a fixed payment that suit my budget.

Customer service gave me the runaround for weeks before they finally looked into where over half of my funds went to. No one ever answered any messages I sent, and wait times to speak with representatives are over an hour and a half, and then you’re rushed to get off of the phone. I did finally get all of the funds, which is why I gave 3 stars, but I honestly regretted getting the loan after dealing with them for weeks.

I'm grateful for the 3-5 day quick turn around to be approved and receive the funds. It's been a while since I've opened a loan, I had forgotten about the fee to open one. Came at a hefty $420 fee from a $10K loan. Here's hoping I can pay them off and showcase I can be a trusted candidate for future ones. Very happy with the service. Thank you!

I applied for a small loan, to help streamline my debt. Upgrade has a good reputation, so when I received a pre-approved letter in the mail, I decided to go with them. It was an easy process, and the customer service representative was extremely helpful. I will recommend them to any friends who need this service.

Overall it has been great except for the amount it said I was preapproved for was actually less than what I got but this loan helped me payoff some stuff and now I just have 1 payment versus multiple and I’m saving over $500 a month.

Applies for a loan thru CreditKarma. Was approved and filled out the info requested and then it just sat in a holding status. Tried to contact them twice - once on hold for 15 minutes and then for 48 minutes before getting thru. Was told I needed to complete another step to get the money which was very vague on their webs site. It did not say it was required and was applying for a credit union in a state I don't live in so very confusing. Once I got a person on the phone, she was very helpful.

It was a easy application. The only problem we encountered was not understanding exactly what documents are being requested. As the application was completed towards the end of the month, a bank statement is not always available.

I like the virtual nature of being able to borrow money! I think the old brick and mortar model is dead. While my loan was eventually funded, it took longer than I expected (over 1 week), there was a lack of transparency to a degree, customer service (1st call was not helpful), further calls to customer service were handed better, and the resolution member/team assigned to my account to get me funded did an outstanding job!

Once the company got all the needed information, it was a very quick decision. When I was approved the money was in my account faster than I was told it would be. The whole process was fast and easy. I highly recommend.

I had an upgrade loan in the past which was completed overnight a few years ago, this one took over two weeks. I had to have a three way call with my bank, and fill out an employment verification form while I am employed. I was then told with 23 years at American Airlines i was considered to be in a shaky business. The paperwork to my employer was repeatedly sent to my manager as he was the person applying for the loan. When all that was sorted out, I was told Upgrade needed verification that it was my manager that sent it. I said he sent it from his email, what more do you want. I have a 800 plus credit score and a six figure income, and felt as if I had been bankrupt applying for a 3rd rate loan... I was really surprised being a prior customer. I honestly almost pulled the application and went to Prosper.

Concerning Fees Tiverton, RI

Smooth approval process. HOWEVER, the origination fee is outrageous and leaves a bad taste. I understand companies go into business to make money, but the "origination fee" combined with the above than average interest rate is concerning and out of control. I was desperate to obtain a credit card consolidation loan and this was a last option. Only recommend this as a last ditch effort.

That I didn’t have to send anything in just rely on my social security number, name & date of birth. That’s all that was needed to get a loan. Most loans require copy of this & that!! But it was so nice & easy!!!

The overall process was easy and all the representatives I spoke to were knowledgeable and answered all questions. The only issue I did have was the partner agreement you have with PenFed credit union. I would not have wanted to open a bank with them nor have my personal financial information with another bank.
