Don’t expect to get money anytime soon
Been using this app for years hoping to be selected for anything and haven’t gotten a cent. They change things up regularly which can effect your spot on the queue. Used to get free super spins but it seem you have to buy their offers to get those now. I see some reviews say you have to spend money but I haven’t spent a cent on this app. I may not be going up the queue fast but I am getting higher and high just by doing the daily trivia and spins.
You can get bonus spins from doing surveys but they never work for me. They changed the survey site and it’s a waste of time since I never get any spins for the surveys I do answer only to end up not qualifying?
The new points exchange is neat but so far it doesn’t seem to select random people. It just picks those that already have 1mil points or more which I’m not even close to having. I haven’t seen an open community that are honest with their experience with this app. It’s strange to not see anyone that won money leave reviews or anything.

They do some good, but…
Yes, the app does some good. But they alienate their tenured players by changing the rules ALL THE TIME because they’re trying to do way too many things at once without thinking through the impact. Or, maybe they do, and they figure that they have seasoned players hooked already so who cares. A few years ago, a CNBC article came out explaining how they don’t account for things and how it’s actually expensive to play and win the loan payout. At one point, they ended up devaluing their own coin system so badly that the thousands that people spent in real dollars was worth pennies within months. But they always find the way to blame everyone else but themselves. No accountability whatsoever, even when their own app errors out, they know and acknowledge it was their error, and you lose hundreds of spots in the queue. “Sorry, can’t help you!” Moral of the story is, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

Lost its way
This app was once great and had a great goal, but it has since lost its way. It’s now more about making money than actually helping those with student loans. They took away free ways to win and have opened the prizes to anyone regardless of if they have a student loan or not. This means the rich and those who are willing to pay thousands will get ahead of those who actually need the money. Many people with student loans are struggling financially, so these changes go against Givling’s original mission. Hopefully, Givling’s patent will expire and another company will be able to recreate the Givling of the past. I started Givling in 2017, but deleted it two weeks ago. It has been nice not worrying about having to use the app everyday and feeling like I’m always falling behind because I’m not wealthy enough to keep up. If you are thinking about joining because you have student loans, I highly urge you to read recent article about this company. There is a lawsuit against them. I’m not the only one disappointed. Hopefully, Givling will find its way back, then I will return.
