Regional Finance

The company is predatory, they sent me a check during the COVID19. I needed this money to pay my bill while I was going to trucking school. The interest rate was supposed to be 37%. I recently noticed that they refinance the original loan without my permission and are charging me 100% interest rate. Now I took another loan to pay it off but they are asking me to go to the branch in person. I would never recommend anyone to ever take a loan from this fraudulent company!! STAY AWAY!

OK, I'm going to be completely honest. I received a loan from Regional Finance and at the time I needed the money. Well I got back on my feet and had enough to pay off the loan early. The loan was only $1400 and my balance was $2000. I paid $100 first month, $100 second month and $800 the third month. Which left me owing $1000. So last week I paid off the $1000 but here's the thing. You have to go to the branch to pay off your loan. You can't pay it off online. I think they do this because they want to try and talk you into borrowing more money. When I told the receptionist I wanted to pay off my loan. She said, "Oh no. You don't want to do that"! When I asked her why. She said, "because we need you to stay longer".

Be very aware this company is a fraud company. They will send you out these checks or maybe you just down and out and need help at the time...they will give you a loan. Don't tell you anything about they hiding fees and will drain you freaking dry...I have a loan out with these demons now and by the grace of God I will pay them off...and when I do I don't care how bad off I am. I will never in my life deal with this company ever..ever...ever again..so for whoever is reading this message I letting you know now stay far as you can away from this company. STAY FAR FAR AWAY!!!...STAY BLESSED AND USED ANOTHER COMPANY!!!

So, they sent me a check., I didn't ask for it. $2,400 and at the time, I was like.. Yeah I can pay off that refrigerator I got from Frys. That's fine but, at 12 payments of 24, they reach out to me and ask if I want to extend the loan. I'm like no, it's ok but they tell me "Oh don't worry.. You have such good payment history. No credit check, no worries.. Just take it." I decline but, in early September, I get COVID... Owe. Can't work 1/2 the month. So I call and ask if the offer is still there. Girl says absolutely. I tell her, "Ok maybe we can do it. I'll get back to you." When I call back on Monday, it's like.. They hate me. They don't care if I pay on time. They are like.. "No, you're no one." I have 4 payments left and, after all this runaround, I am done. I won't do business with them again. Sorry I ever did. I mean, don't call me and offer anything if you don't intend to go through. Wasting my time. Don't do business with them. You'll regret it.

They sent a check to someone and using my ss#. I have never borrowed from them in my life. Now the person that received the money is not making payments or is behind. I am getting calls and letters from them wanting the money. I never give them permission to use my name or social security number. This company is a bunch of crooks who steals from any one they can. DON'T DO BUSINESS WITH THEM.

I initially took out this loan for a little relief during covid. Have paid every payment on time and like a week early. During this time I have been trying to buy a home and was receiving alerts about the Regional Finance. In January when I got the first alert I called them and they assured me that it does not affect my score in any way. I felt like maybe I was wrong and let it go. Since then I have continued to pay my payment on time and early and it stalled my score because they are reporting my interest increase and not my payment that I am paying. I reached out to corporate and again Not a real answer just denying that it could do anything regarding my score. Don't obtain a loan unless you just really direly need it because this company will have you paying forever and when you have problems or concerns it's no resolution. I was told to PAY THE LOAN OFF AND FIND ANOTHER LOAN COMPANY. BEWARE.

The loan offer came in the mail. We reviewed the terms and deposited the check. Funds came quickly and we received a courtesy call. The rep, Meredith, was helpful and answered our questions. We were able to pay it off within 3 months so the interest rate wasn't bothersome. I feel that some people taking this offer didn't really read the details and somehow believe they can get off the hook for repayment. If someone borrowed your money and then came up with a slurry of excuses not to repay, you'd be mad. Not just say, "Oh that's fine. You don't need to pay."

Inquired about the company and asked for loan details prior to applying. It was not mentioned during that time that BK Chp 7 had to be discharged for 2 years. It was disclosed after the hard pull on my credit report. Rep said I met everything else aside from that. I feel like that is important to know before proceeding with an application that will affect someone's credit report while they are trying to rebuild. Not happy about that!!!

PLEASE DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY!! LISA at the Round Rock location lied to me and told me the insurance policy and auto discount plan was complimentary for me using them for a loan. Two weeks later I find out that I am actually being charged for both the insurance and the auto policy and she lied to me. When I called to cancel it they tell me they can't only the supervisor can. I call back and she repeatedly hung the phone up on me and told me she would not be cancelling my insurance. I have called their corporate office and filed a complaint as well. I will never use this company and pray that no one else does.

I cashed the check these guys sent because I was low on cash in my new business and I wanted to build my with a short term loan. I sent them $1400 of the original $2400 loan amount, they agreed to send me an email when the next payment was and I never received it, resulting in them charging me an extra $150 interest. This is loan shark company, Beware.
