This place a SCAM. Not to be confused with place that does PAYDAY and Title loans. You can get CASH or ******** card. No ******* *************. Claim they can't use your bank, etc. Stay away when they are foreign accents with names like BOB and SUE,lol. You are screwed if you use these criminals.

Beware. They asked me for my bank user name and password purportedly for identification purposes. No legitimate company would ever ask for this information as it would give them wide open access to take your money. For identification purposes all they need is your bank routing number and account number. Then they make a $1 deposit to verify. When I told them I would not provide this information they insisted it was standard practice. It is not standard practice and you would be putting your cash at risk if you proceed.

I paid them $420.00 and they wanted more go pay me the loan and they lied to me about a sum of money supposedly sent to one of their facilities in Houston. when i got tired of them lying to me i requested my money back and they have given me all kinds of excuses and even told me that I had to pay them to receive a refund check. Now they have even blocked my phone number so that I can't call them.

My payments was 227.67. They take 683.01 out of my checking account. They said I authorized it. Find out my account was hacked. Now I’m out of my money.

They made me pay fees to them in gift cards which were already weird and thought it was not right was a huge red flag. Paid them 250 and they still wanted more saying they would get my loan amount in my account and didn't. Said it was my bank and that fees they would not pay. They used the gift cards gave me nothing in return. Please make sure others do not get scammed they claim to be legit and show you things in the end unprofessional taking advantage of people that are in emergency money situations.

They were great to give me a 250 loan when it was needed. I had meant to pay them back but I swore the took the money out of my account. The sware it wasn't paid. So ok well we were going through a hardship. But as soon as I got my stimulus check I paid them online. Because they were threatening to take me to court. Now their attorney is still harassing me for 1500 something. I paid it months ago. I believe it was only 350 or something like that. No where did it say I owed more. :( why can't they leave me alone I have enough... read more

Yes I got a idea to get a loan with advance America and I gave nasa the number they called me on to stop this criminal behavior of asking people for their bank password routing and checking account number. He also asked me if I would give a upfront five hundred dollar payment and that they would send it first and then tried to change the words around to make me look like I will just pay the five hundred dollars first as an assurance that I will be making the monthly payments

I don't want to even put a star. I had wanted to get a loan with Cash Advance but the guy by the name of Michael or Mike was acting very rude. So, I decided to not get the loan of $6,000. I suspect they are shady. However, five months had passed. I get a notice of a lawsuit to pay money for a loan in 2018. I never applied for a loan at that time. They only contacted me in 2021. (I noticed that they are doing this to a lot of innocent people.) I think that something should be done against them. Because they are harassing othe... read more

Location: ******, CA ***** I am not sure why the employees are giving medical advice to wear a mask. If you don't follow their medical advice they won't do business with you. Shouldn't it be illegal for a business to give medical advice since they are not licensed doctors? Its really sad to America is now just as bad a ***** and ****** and other communist countries.
