### 2/5 — Too many fees

*2026-08-30, version 10.0.65*

They only let you transfer borrowed funds, that you’re already paying fees on, to ALBERT cash not your bank. Then you have to pay more fees to transfer it to your bank. The other apps don’t play with you like this.

Albert is like the friend who is always there when you need them! Thanks Albert.

### 2/5 — Only one issue

*2026-08-28, version 10.0.63*

When you take a cash advance from this app, it doesn’t matter if your due date to pay is a week away, this app will pull money from your account WELL before the payment day (multiple times) that you agreed to. Extremely immoral and inconvenient

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Cancel my subscription

*2026-08-30, version 10.0.65*

They make it extremely difficult to cancel the subscription

### 1/5 — app

*2026-08-29, version 10.0.65*

suspended my account and took my money along with it. Terrible company.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-08-29, version 10.0.65*

This app took away 20$ and I have not been on this app for months but got a notification recently that I was charged 20$ I have no subscription

### 1/5 — No customer service difficult to close

*2026-08-29, version 10.0.65*

Albert does not treat small balances fairly Any amount under $10  is charged the monthly $19’.99 fee. I withdrew my last $9.00 because it didn’t fit my needs. Because it had earned a penny in interest I could not close the account. Subsequently,I was charged the $19.99 fee. Beware of the 30 day trial it is hard to quit as everything  else with this company

### 1/5 — Predatory & Illegal Practices, Stay Away

*2026-08-29, version 10.0.65*

They released a new fee schedule without notifying current customers first. New app UI is horrible, and they’ve gutted their customer support and replaced with an illiterate AI custom GPT. A toddler could’ve written a better script. Reported to CFPB, and their partner bank’s regulators.

### 1/5 — Avoid this app

*2026-08-28, version 10.0.65*

Avoid this app they will keep charging you 20 dollars a month even if you cancel the subscription

### 1/5 — Ruined my life

*2026-08-28, version 10.0.65*

If you owe them, do not send any money into your main account or they’ll sap it. I needed to move some money over to cover a pushy creditor due to being hacked, and they refuse to give ANY of it back creating a whole storm for me personally. They gave me hope they could and kept my hopes up, before shutting me completely down. I loved this app.. but they’ve become slimey.

### 1/5 — Horrible subscription cancellation process

*2026-08-28, version 10.0.65*

This app schemes to get you to subscribe then makes it super difficult to cancel. If it charges your account and you ask for a refund the ai bot will keep saying it can’t give a refund because it charges after the month is over rather than before the month starts.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-08-28, version 10.0.65*

I’m trying to cancel my subscription and once the app takes me to the web browser, they make me jump through hoops to try to cancel it.

### 1/5 — Don’t download

*2026-08-28, version 10.0.65*

This company keeps taking my money and I can’t download the app please stop taking my money give it back

### 5/5 — Not worth it

*2026-08-30, version 10.0.65*

It was ok when you paid $19.99 a month and it was free transfer your instant cash to your Albert card. Now it’s a monthly fee and $38 dollars to borrow money for TWO weeks, and there is an extra fee with every instant borrowed. It is ridiculous. I have had Albert for YEARS and am canceling my account due to the new changes.
