### 4/5 — Great app…but seeing your transaction history is horrible

*2024-05-03*

This is a great help to me on helping me situate myself daily as far as getting a portion of my paid earnings early…but looking through your transaction history is utter hell…it constantly freezes…and when it works it pauses and you can’t see more than a few days (maybe 3 days) maximum of transactions before I just give up on the wait…please address this because I want to detect fraudulent charges when they happen

**Developer response:** Hey there. We’re happy to look into any issues you're experiencing with our app. Please send us your email address associated with your DailyPay account, along with a brief explanation of your issue to support@dailypay.com. Thank you!

### 2/5 — Access denied

*2024-03-06*

I literally get paid through this!!! I tried to log in today and it’s ACESS DENIED!!! Like what do you mean access denied!!!! I need my money off of there and my paycheck Friday. I called and she emailed me wanting a picture of the response, then no email back to let me know what’s going on nothing…  after reading more review it seems like this is common problem so why would they act clueless…I’m so upset my sons birthday party is this weekend. I told my employer to change my pay back to my chime but it might not be changed by Friday and I can’t even log into cancel my Friday so that it will bounce and go back into my account there about to have a good 8 days of paycheck of me just stuck on there and I’m upset.

### 3/5 — Can’t withdraw money

*2023-11-08*

App was working perfectly fine when I first started using it and now it won’t let me take any money out to put on the Friday card when I have an available balance to use and it’ll always say I’m receiving zero dollars when I want to receive $20 or $30

### 1/5 — Can’t even try it out.

*2023-04-03*

Keep trying to log in/ create an account and it keeps saying email already linked to an account log out then log back in except every time i try to log in it has me creating a new account (won’t let me put in a password) just has me re-verifying my email over and over again.

**Developer response:** Hi there, Please double-check that you’re using the phone number and email address you have on file with DailyPay or your employer. If that still doesn’t work, feel free to call customer support toll-free at (833) 998-2449 for assistance.

### 1/5 — If I could give it a negative-0 I would. This app is HORRIBLE!!

*2023-02-18, version 1.26*

I would recommend NEVER EVEN TRYING THIS APP. I ordered my card 2 twice never got a card until I ordered a 3rd one and that didn’t even come in for 8-9 days. Now that I finally have the card in hand the activation button on the app is gone and my card is not activated!!! My check got deposited into this account on Feb 3rd and for some reason I can’t transfer my funds at all to any accounts added to this app & I still can’t access my money from Feb 3rd! I have called and emailed them for 3 to 4 weeks now and I keep getting transferred to other people and all of them don’t have a clue how to help me! I’ve asked for supervisors and got hung up on multiple times! I got fed up and had my job switch my direct deposit back to my original bank account. This app without my permission switched my direct deposit back to them 3 times!!!!!! EVEN AFTER I CLOSED THE ACCOUNT! I had to contact my work 4 times to get it switched back to my original bank! This app is extremely frustrating and likes to withhold your money from you! Again it’s now February 18th and I still have NO ACCESS to my check from February 3rd! disgusting. My last paycheck from yesterday had to be mailed to me instead of deposited into my accounts bc this app keeps screwing up everything!!! Absolutely not worth it!!!!!!!

**Developer response:** Hi there, thank you for your feedback, and we apologize that you have had such a negative experience with receiving your paycheck.

### 1/5 — Friday is trash! Throw the whole company away.

*2023-02-17, version 1.26*

I just got paid today and daily pay is saying that they have sent my check to the friday card but, when I go to check my Friday card my check is no where to be found. And now I’m calling daily pay and I’ve been on hold for legit 30 minutes. I will never use Friday again. Btw this is the 5th problem I’ve had with them since they introduced the service. NEVER AGAIN. The FRIDAY CARD SERVICE IS NOT GOOD AT ALL!.

**Developer response:** Rece, Please reply back to us with the email for your Friday card or DailyPay account and one of our Customer Experience Analysts will contact you to assist in finding your remainder pay.  Email us that information at reply@DailyPay.com right away!

### 1/5 — App is not working

*2023-02-13, version 1.26*

App is not working

### 1/5 — Do not bank or use this card company

*2023-01-25, version 1.26*

There has been multiple issues with me using Friday by DailyPay my purchases has been taken from my transaction history and posting again on a different day as a new transaction which there taking money again from my account this has happened numerous of times. They say there going to do escalations and someone will contact you within 1-3 business days they never call or email you I spoke with multiple representatives and no one ever resolved anything they tell you different things and then hang up. I would not recommend this Friday by DailyPay to anyone if you want to keep your money secure please use something else not this for sure bad experience and I’m certainly not the only customer with issues with this Friday by DailyPay .

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback___. This is certainly not the experience we intend for our customers to have. We'd appreciate the opportunity to chat with you further. Please reach out to us at reply@dailypay.com.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Avoid beyond ridiculous

*2024-07-22*

App never works to load transactions to keep up with posted transactions, EVER. Almost like they don’t want you to because the reflected balance is also never accurate. Ive had a significant balance month over month and it’s not reflected in my available balance. Also takes SEVEN TO TEN days for a pending transaction to drop off meaning they’ll hold your money until then. And charge every penny of your available balance but also deny the transaction. Wtw..

### 1/5 — Awful service and reps all tell different information

*2024-06-27*

I had a hold placed into my card for my Walmart order as they always do but when I started contacting Friday wondering why they had my $58 still on hold for days, I was promised it would be back onto my card that day. The next day I was told 1-3 business days, and now yesterday I was told up to 7!!! I have asked each time to have this escalated and to have a supervisor contact me back which as of yet is still to happen! This is definitely not the first issue with them either! Hate this company was forced to get D/T work… do not use if you can help it!!!

### 1/5 — Transaction History

*2024-06-08*

The app always freezes when you try to go through your recent charges, you can only see the first few and any time you click to see more and try to scroll the whole app stops responding. Doesn’t matter how many times you close and reopen the app. So you literally have to wait until your next statement comes out and hope for the best that all the charges are correct.

**Developer response:** Hey there. We’re happy to look into any issues you're experiencing with our app. Please send us your email address associated with your DailyPay account, along with a brief explanation of your issue to support@dailypay.com. Thank you!

### 1/5 — Don’t use they’re Scamming

*2024-05-30*

These guys here have a little scam going on  let me explain. If you use this card at a restaurant or gas star they will charge you extra. Example I ordered food at a restaurant the bill was 15 dollars  I have 25 dollars in my account I swipe it charge me  25 and said I owe 5 more dollars, I asked the worker I thought you said it was 15? He said yes it is  but  it says you paid 10 dollars. I check the app and they charge the  25  and still had to pay the 5 dollars extra I paid a double for what I’m supposed to pay and all they say you have to wait a week for you to get the money back. my problem is that they do it with every transaction  they owe me about 50 dollars. Im done with you guys !!!

### 1/5 — Can’t access funds

*2023-12-19*

I have over $250 in my Daily Pay account but when I try to transfer my funds, I keep getting an error message that says failed. I called customer service who advised that they don’t know what the issue is and will have to escalate it. So I don’t know if or when I will be contacted back to get this issue resolved. Definitely going to terminate my usage of this card and get my earnings sent to a real bank that I can walk into if and when problems should arise. This is very inconvenient and I am stuck with the fact that my power could very be shut off today because I had a promise to pay in their system yet I can’t access my money.

### 1/5 — Don’t recommend

*2023-10-28*

Friday by daily pay app is not working! I am not able to review any of my transactions in the app nor do I get any bank statements to see what I am being charged for! Anytime I click on transactions it freezes up and don’t allow me to click on anything else! This is a huge inconvenience for all I know you guys can be updating the transactions to an higher amount and I won’t know! I have tried deleting and downloading the app back and it’s still not letting me view my transactions! What is going on?! Can we get this resolved asap!

**Developer response:** Hey there, thank you for bringing this to our attention. We'd like to help get you in contact with our customer care team and troubleshoot your app. Please reach out to us at reply@dailypay.com and we'll take it from there. Thanks!

### 1/5 — Reported fraud

*2023-10-16*

I reported fraud on my card. I asked if I should call the police and have it investigated. I was assured that they would do an internal investigation and I didn’t need to do anything. After waiting a week I was told that I would not be getting my $200 back because everything was legitimate. This was very disappointing being that my card was used at an ATM in a city that I’ve never been to. I think the problem was I still had my card, and it was a skimming incident. I was asked if I wanted to reopen the investigation to which I said yes. They asked me what new information do I have. But I had none because they told me not to do anything and they would do all the investigation themselves. I will be canceling my service with them. Hopefully others do not have the same result.

### 1/5 — Access Denied?!?!

*2023-10-14*

I never used to have any problems using the app or getting into the app until yesterday i tried to open the Friday app and it has a sad face saying “access denied” and “feels like monday”. I need to get into the app to access my funds. I am not happy about this at all, i never had any issues with this app until now. Once this issue is resolved and fixed i will change my rating but until then, 1 star.

### 5/5 — Nice

*2023-06-30*

I didn’t want this card at first. However I’ve come to appreciate the many benefits like early access to most of my pay, a separate account to deposit money into which I can keep private. No charge to put the money instantly on the Friday Visa debit card. You can instantly transfer to any bank account for a small fee.

### 5/5 — Bogus

*2023-06-29*

It isn’t working AT ALL … everytime i try to sign in it keep telling me logout daily pay…. But im not logged in -_- makes no sense

### 5/5 — Friday Card

*2023-05-08*

I was forced to get this card. I hate it 100%. I tried to get my money as I do every week, ACCESS DENIED with a sad face and “Feels like Monday” on the same page which IS NOT FUNNY.  One of the woman there asked me for my full debit card number. I said “No way, you all are already keeping my money, you’ll probably take my card number and go shopping.” I told her I couldn’t hear her because of all of the people talking in the background. After all of the fees I pay them, you would think they would care and try to resolve my problem. But, no.  So I guess I’ll go live off the land eating twigs and berries since Friday Card has my money. Go crazy with it.

**Developer response:** Wendy,  Please email us to reply@dailypay.com with the address and phone number for your DailyPay account and one of our Customer Experience Analysts will review your account, and reach out to you right away to assist.
