My Experience was satisfactory. I was offered 3010.00, I looked into the offer and found out that I was eligible for 1000.00. I applied for the 1000.00 and was quickly approved. The loan agreement papers came up quickly, Too quickly. I was unable to review them prior to accepting the loan. When I did agree to the terms of the loan and electronically sign, it was then that I found out that this refinance was paying off my previous loan and received only 489.00. I would have been more satisfied if I was not rushed through the process and had been able to learn that my previous loan was going to be paid off with this new loan agreement, That being said, I might not have agreed to the offer. However I am satisfied with the help from what I got, It came at an Ideal time. Thank you.

    One of the top reasons I continue to use Balance Credit is that it's quickly accessible. The application can be completed in three or four minutes and they respond quickly with their decisions - whether I get the money or not. The award is directly deposited so I don't have to worry about that piece of it and they send notifications when payments are due. They give a level of how much I can borrow based on income and I can choose up to that dollar amount. As I continue to use them, my level of credit has increased. They're a good company to work with.

    I love working with balance for my short term credit needs! Your website is so easy to use & I know I have customer service support should I not be able to find information online! Everything was great! You were there when I needed cash for car repairs & I was able to pay it back in a few months. Then returned when I needed help with home repairs & you were there with a higher loan & better terms as a returning client. Very, very happy with my experience!

    Balance Credit has been my go-to when needed. They have a seamless application process. They don't ask a whole lot of questions and their response is quick. It's not that long of a process at all. I do the entire application online and I get a response almost immediately. Subsequently, the requested amount is deposited a day later. I've been dealing with the company for seven or eight years now and I've had to move a payment back three or four times but I've never had an issue.

    My experience with Balance Credit, has been nothing but exceptional. The terms are laid out, so there are no surprises. Most don't actually read them. The interest is high, but also on (a) par, with similar type loans. They are typical, for those of us, whose credit has fallen on hard times. My only wish, is that they offer for existing customers to just renew, rather than applying again. I do however, understand why. A stellar performance all the way through! Thank you.

    My first original loan went through without a hitch on it. I went through it over my phone and it took about two minutes to get it processed and approved, which was awesomely great.

    Actually a little disappointed with my current loan. I thought the rates were supposedly to get lower each time? I should have handled my last loan differently. The process is easy and convenient. Unfortunately payday loans are not customer friendly, because all the rates are ridiculous.

    Original review: March 20, 2023

    I received a mail offer to get a personal loan. I went through the online process to get a personal loan because I have moving expenses and I wanted also to consolidate my credit card balances as well as have a bit extra for necessary utility deposits. I called the company and spoke with a customer service rep. After I explained the situation that a smaller loan wouldn't help me consolidate my credit cards the rep said I'd have to reapply with the understanding that I could ask for a higher amount.

    He put me back through the automated system which doesn't allow for you to request an amount in the application, but merely tells you how much they will loan you. And this second time it was even less that the first offer. I have Fair (closer to Good) credit, have always paid on time and I couldn't even reach an actual person to negotiate my loan. This customer service rep tricked me into yet another unnecessary credit check which, as you know, always looks bad on your report. This is a horrible, horrible service that relies entirely on an automated system. I do not recommend this Balance Credit for anyone trying to build their credit or consolidate loans. They will NOT work with you.

    Quick and easy process. Money was in my account the next business day. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a short term loan. The staff were very helpful in helping get them the information they needed for funding.

    I’ve been with Balance for some years now and I never had a problem. The process was really easy and I did everything online. I just put in all my information then within a few minutes, I was approved.
