Gerald Customer Insights

1. I really wish the app would allow you change the default payment method, i have had to replace my bank debit card a few times in the last months, and every time, i go in and add the new one, the app says thanks for updating your card, but then denies me the overdraft advance that i have available , because it's still trying to use my old one! Very frustrating!COMPLETE SCAM!! Downloaded it to do cash advance.

2. I like how most of the reviews say they sent a message and the company could/would not help, and the companies response is to "send us a message"BEWARE OF PHISHING!!!!!!!!!!! Went to sign up...during the Link my bank account process another number sent my phone a code to enter on the website.

3. So, it's not really worth it when you're forced to wait 3-5 business days every tike for an advance...The worst advance app on the market!!! Created an account and given an advance amount with a repayment date.

4. They will allow you to link to your bank account and get an instant advance for a small fee.

5. It says it cleaned on their end, but it did not on my bank account but are sending reminders about the money I OWE them, when I never received an advance.

6. Connected to my bank account like most advance apps require, but then it mentioned direct deposit.

7. The "instant advance option is taken away, the claim its an issues with bank provider.

8. I've been waiting to use the advance because they haven't "processed" the payment that came out of my bank a week ago.

9. And after they have your bank information and get you signed up and hook you in by offering instant advance (within in minutes).

10. Mind you I'm paying 9.99 a month for a 59.60 advance amount after repayments are consistently on time and I make a consistent middle class paycheck.

11. So after that, they convert my cash advance for bills to overdraft and send me a mail like instant convert in cash is available.
