I just submitted my first request. How long does it normally take to get approved or denied? Considering it’s Saturday?

Choose Solo

Unless you have great credit nobody will even consider lending to you. Have had the app for a few weeks and still nobody has even gave me a chance and loaned me anything. Solo is on it. They lent me the money in less than a hour

Pointless.

Plenty of “considerations” but no one ever funds. The info needed to request is plenty that you would think a lender would pick it up but never does. I added a picture of the bill, my paystub, my reasoning for needing a loan (as if a picture of the bill isn’t enough) and gave my employers info (including their social media account for whatever reason). I gave two stars because it’s a thorough process and the app itself is built great. But all around, I would not recommend this to anyone. I

No lenders! Beware

I’ve submitted several requests and always have “considering” but nobody ever lends on this platform. Like others have said use other apps like Solo if you really need a small loan. Awful charging $7 to sign up and there’s absolutely 0 guarantee to get a loan. On Solo it take at most an hour to get funded but here it could take at minimum days or weeks.

$7 wasted

Don’t even bother.

Mixed Feelings

I have 9 considering my loan but not an offer. I feel like I wasted my $7 on an app that isn’t useful at all. At least allow those considering to negotiate or something. At this point I’m not even sure this is real

WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY!

This app does NOT WORK! I’ve requested loans multiple times both big and small even when my needs were urgent or I needed the funds within a few days. Every time I made requests, my post would get likes and “considerations” but no one ever actually funded my requests. What’s even more frustrating is that I’ve paid a $7 verification fee 3-4 different times but I just ended up spending money without receiving any benefit. This app doesn’t work and can’t recommend it to anyone looking for real financial help.

Not worth the time

Submitted 2-3 request over the course of a month never received an offer or agreement. Considering how much information your asked to provide willingly seems like this app is solely to gain access to personal info

Considering

Unfortunately everyone considers but i have yet to get an offer

Great until the last 5 days

I haven’t had any problems getting a lender until now. I pay back every time and I am gold status as a borrower with a home high score. I was getting offers from the same person, but I believe he is no position to lend right now. I understand. I had 3 offers from 3 people. One I think made a mistake by only charging a dollar (probably first time). The other 2 are reasonable terms because I really need the help.

But for 5 days now I went back & forth to see if one funds (they get 2 hours and then you can accept again). I wonder if they are new at it or something. Maybe they changed their minds, but they are able to withdraw or change terms on their side. Lendee tried to get ahold of them to see if they had trouble adding money but they were sent to voicemail.

Maybe some people do it and have no intention of funding (lending). This worries me. Lendee stopped sending messages a few weeks ago directly from the borrower or else I’d ask them to ask the lender if they are serious about the lending offer. If not they need to delete or redo it if they are serious about how long so I could accept it again. Or if they need to change terms if they’d do that.

But they can’t message on behalf of the borrower now according to new rules. They can only call them on Lendee’s own behalf to see of the person who offered to lend had problems with adding money and other stuff. I’m still giving a 5 star for before this. Who knows I may change my review at some point.

App doesn’t work

I’ve had actual urgent needs, put that into my request as well as my timetable, uploaded my pay information like the app asks, multiple request views, multiple likes on my request, multiple considerations, yet no offers. I’ve had to delete and reupload requests in hopes it would work, but still nothing. This app is terrible, makes you pay a $7 fee & enter information all for nothing. You’re better off using SoLo or Brigit or just an app that WORKS, makes no sense. I find it hard to believe anyone uses the app, I’ve checked the reddit reviews and all say similar things as me, the requests never get picked up no matter how it’s entered or how urgently you need it.

Amazing

App's instant approval was a true help when i was struggling.

BE AWARE!!!!!!!!!!

I should have read to reviews before downloading this app and wasting $7. People will review, consider, and like your loan/profile but you won’t get the loan. This app is most definitely fake. Please don’t waste your time SOLO is much better. 114 views and 14 considerations and 43likes straight bots

We’re sorry to hear that your experience did not meet expectations.

I was late once recently but they offered me more time

I was late once recently but they offered me more time. I wasn’t sent to collections at all. I wasn’t all that late. I have one person who loans to me. If I need extra time and they are willing to loan to me again, I’ll just send the money back (pay it) and ask for another borrow. I can do that though customer service. I can ask Customer Service if they will message my lender and they say they will. Idk if they really do or not. But at least Lendee and the lender are making money from my borrowing.

We’re glad to know you had a positive experience and received the help you needed. Thank you for choosing Lendee, and we’re here anytime you need us again.

The app gets no progress

This app makes you pay $6.99 to submit your requested fund loan to a marketplace. Days and weeks go by and they never approve nor even review your application. Very very poor experience save yourself the headache!

(Update) Don’t ever be late with paying these guys

So I’ve borrowed from this app a few times. I was late with the first loan but paid it off and borrowed again. I fell through some hard times and couldn’t pay back right away so they have sent me to collections which is fine but OMG they are ready to crucify me over this. My credit has tanked bad and customer service is hateful. Plus they have threatened to ruin my chances of getting a job and legal action when the loan is under $100 dollars. Don’t do it if you’re gonna be late. Really regret this app and would no longer recommend

Do not download

I downloaded this account and now 5 people owe me money. Do not download, support does not help you get your money back. Support tells you they’re working on it but they’re just saying that to protect themselves

So far so good

I was able to get 2 borrow amounts. Customer service is very helpful as well.

Trash

Been having this app for 2 months and nothing pure trash

Horrible

Everytime you try to request anything you have to jump threw a million hoops and I still never wasn’t able to get anything just a waist of time
