    I have used Balance Credit a few times; it’s fast and convenient. I do recommend paying more than the minimum or extra here and there. The APR is high. But payments are reasonable.. I took out another one and paid a few things off and now can focus on just this one.

    The funding is quick and easy, but very high interest. You end up paying three times what you received. Last time using them, as charge way too much in interest.

    There are other entities that can charge way less. Yes funding is same day, but again it take you two years to pay the loan back again paying back almost three times what you received.

    Obtaining a loan is easy. You don’t really need to talk to anybody and just do it all online. In my experience, the money goes into my bank account within 24 hours the next day. It's convenient and okay when you're in a pinch, but the high interest rates will get you. So, you have to really balance the good and the bad with it.

    Fast, reliable, and truly helpful — especially during the busy holiday season. When unexpected car issues came up, I was feeling stressed and unsure of what to do next. Thankfully, Balance Credit was there right when I needed support the most. The process was straightforward, quick, and completely stress-free, which made a difficult situation much easier to manage.

    From start to finish, everything was handled professionally and efficiently. There were no confusing steps, no unnecessary delays, and no added pressure. It was reassuring to work with a company that values clarity, reliability, and customer care. During a time when expenses tend to pile up and surprises are the last thing you want, having access to dependable financial support made all the difference.

    I truly appreciate how easy and pain-free the entire experience was. Balance Credit provided peace of mind when I needed it most, and that kind of service does not go unnoticed. I would absolutely recommend Balance Credit to my family and friends without hesitation. Thank you for the excellent service and support. Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and a happy holiday season!

    At first I thought the experience was seamless and the funds were deposited right away. I made my payments on time and then got an email offering an additional 4000 with a refinance. This however was almost like a bait and switch as instead of 4000 I ended up with a longer loan and only 65 dollars. I called them immediately and they refused to cancel it even though I called them within 24 hours.

    The application itself wasn’t hard. I never talked to a live person. I completed the application, got approved, and the money was deposited within a couple of days. I’m sure they adjusted the interest based on my credit score. But I probably won’t use Balance Credit again in the future because the interest rates are too high. The monthly payments are much higher than when I go with NetCredit or Off Loan. For $2,000, you gotta pay almost $400 for like 12 or 18 months. With NetCredit, based on my experience, I was able to get almost double the amount at a much lower interest, like $389 a month.

    I have made on-time payments for over 8 months and balance hasn't moved. I also had a previous loan which I paid off. I recently refinanced and it just added more to balance without reducing apy...which I thought it did. Why not allow people to make progress... I have already paid the amount back and then some. The fact you didn't change the rate is disgusting and usury. I have been a loyal customer made every payment on time.. I'm contacting my attorney because this is wrong.
