DayToday Finance LLC called me on approximately January 17th and offered me a loan for $****. Their terms were good and they had a legitimate contract online which I never signed. So I accepted since I really needed the money. He asked for sensitive banking information and my debit card number. I gave it to him but it bothered me. Then he said he would put $225 into my account if I bought a $220 gift card to prove I was an honest person. He had me scratch the silver foil off the back and read him the numbers. Then He said he would put $500 into my account if I bought a $450 gift card. He had me do the same with the foil on the back. Then he wanted me to buy another card I flipped out crying. I told him what he was doing wasn't right and he told me to have faith in him. Then he tried putting $499.04, $508.41, $498.17 into my account . All 5 of these checks bounced. I now have a negative balance in my account of $***.**. I have no way to make up my balance to positive and I am locked out of my account. I could lose this account thanks to these crooks.

Well the person I spoke with had an accent that sounded like he was from India or maybe from the Caribbean. He told me that I was approved for a $4,000 dollar loan because my credit score was low (***) that is true and that my repayment would be 99.00 starting in March. I thought it sounded great because I have been applying for a loan.

Received a text saying I was approved for a loan and to call this number. I called and was connected with "Henry Smith." He said I should expect the money in my account no later than this morning and if not to call back and use his extension. If course the money was never deposited. So when I called to see why, the woman tried to get me to give her another bank account's info. There was no option to even put a extension in and when I asked for "Henry" he wasn't available. She ended up hanging up on me when I asked too many questions. Then when I called back they just stopped answering.

I applied for a loan and the process was presented to be legitimate with paperwork and once it's time to deposit the loan then there is nothing but the run around and they start to dispute pass high price amounts in your account by filing a claim and make it seems as if it is money they deposited.

I applied for a loan through withU loans after receiving an offer through the mail, after applying it said I was approved and I would receive my money in less than 48 hours. I received none of the money (it’s been three business days) I try signing into my account and it says I don’t have one. They have all of my identification, such as ss# DL# birthday and address. They won’t answer the phone or reply to any emails.. and I feel like the business is a fraudulent scheme to steal people identity’s.

I got a $700 loan from WithU loans. When I signed the agreement it said that there would be 5 payments of $139. I made 4 payments and went to check my account because they said I hadn’t made my payment. The payment had already come out of my account so I wanted to talk to someone. When I looked at the account it said I owed $900! On the phone they said my interest rate was 523% Who in their right mind would agree to that?! They also set me up for payments every two weeks until 2023!

This fake loan company sent me a DocuSign pretending to be Lending Club and they had already had all my banking information. I was under the impression that the loan company was real due to the DocuSign. I contacted them about it and they told me they were going to be depositing a check in my bank Via Mobile deposit. They deposited a check for $830 that had said it was from Quest Diagnostics, once the check was available they told me to go purchase gift cards certain ones and then call them back with the info. When I finally realized it was a scam I contacted my bank and they weren't too happy about it and wanted me to pay back all the money and now I think that they close my account out and sent all that over to the credit bureau which messed up my credit. I still have text messages and the DocuSign paperwork from them. I called them from a different number and they are still actively scamming people. They answer the phone like they are the real Lending Club and say that the calls are being recorded. When I confronted them about being a fake company they blocked my number. I even have pictures of the fake check that they had deposited in my account. I have three kids and was looking forward to this loan I had applied for a loan through Experian and then it sent me to different loan directors who may be able to help me and somehow these people got my info.

Applied for a loan on a website an was reached by text message in regards to getting a $5k loan. Person asked for identifying information and then an email was sent by their "loan manager" "Shawn Smith" which was a gmail address (which I found odd for a loan company to be texting me loan documentation and emailing me from personal accounts with silly names). I received a call from the woman who identified herself as "Christina Boston" and she said that it would take 90 minutes and to "keep my phone around". By this time I was was pretty uncomfortable with the situation. "Christina" said that they would call me in the morning to verify the funds had been added to my account. The following morning no funds had been added- no surprise- and I googled the address and it doesn't exist. The business is not registered on the Florida states agency, there are NO reviews about it anywhere online. I contacted them and told them this and "Sam Smith" said "I am finding my address on google right now!" I was then informed that I would be called back when the money was deposited. 30 minutes later or so they (Sam Smith) called again and told me that they would depositing a small amount in my bank account and in order to verify my identity and "make me a customer" I had to send it right back immediately via CashApp. Asking me the age of my bank account and how long I have used CashApp. All of this was peculiar to me and obviously shady and I said no and he was insistent and asked me why, said that they had to "verify" things this way because they "lost millions" last year. STAY AWAY from these scam artists. I believe that they are a married couple or a family of scammers. They have a thick middle eastern accent so you know who's calling you when they do- in case they try to change their names.
