SCAMMER! No decision given at all.

Applied several times, only sent to credit verify website where I have to pay for my credit file and settle me credit protection. SCAMMER ALERT! no decision given on my applications, any of them. Emailed them twice to two "official" email addresses, no reply at all! SCAMMER ALERT!!!

Hi Mary-Anne, we're sorry to hear you've had a poor experience. We only send applicants to Credit Verify if they do not meet our funding standards, so if you were referred there we were unable to match you with a lender. If you have any questions or would like to further discuss your application you can get in touch with our customer service team at info@loanz.com.

No service

I applied 3 days ago for a loan. Constantly getting emails for advertisement but when you email "customer service", no response. Tried to call and only option is to leave a voicemail. Absolutely ridiculous.

Hi Daniel, we're sorry to hear you've had a negative experience with our application. We require access to your banking information as part of the application process in order to effectively underwrite your application.

Some of the information available through your banking details will also need to be manually entered into the application as this will make it easier for us to see if you qualify for the loan you are applying for. We can assure you that we take the security of our client's personal information very seriously.

In regards to the difficulties you mentioned with inputting your details into the application, we ask that you report any technical issues with our applications to the customer service team at info@loanz.com

Hi Kara, like many lenders, we require applicants to provide their banking information as part of the application process so that their application can be properly underwritten. While we take the security of applicants' personal information very seriously, this is a necessary part of the loan approval process.

They Don't Give Loans, They Refer You To Other Companies

Absolutely horrible, avoid them like the plague.

You will apply, and they will either send you to another institute that offers loans at 48% interest rate or even to a bankruptcy office.

I applied, I have great credit, owe zero on my credit cards, haven't used my line or credit, have great savings in my bank and never missed a payment in credit cards but yet they won't do a small loan or even look at it. As soon as I applied the first time I was sent to a bankruptcy office and had them contacting me to discuss a consumer proposal or go bankrupt... second time I was referred to a loan place for a loan with 48% interest rate - worse than loan sharks.

So I don't know how they help people cause clearly they don't and probably get paid for referring people to other businesses.

Go somewhere else people, your wasting your time.

Good morning Pat,

If you have applied with us, then you should know that we help Canadians get access to the funds they need. I've requested more information from you so that we can assist you, however, I want you to know that our system is completely encrypted and our company never accesses your bank account or anything like that. Even income verification is done by a third party provider who is trusted by the banks so that we keep your information and data secure at all points. We look forward to hearing from you and helping in any way that we can.

Sincerely,

The Loanz Team

Awful service period...False…

Awful service period...False advertising and it redirected me to theirs party lenders which the advertisement said nothing like that and has my banking information. Terrible and awful service as just trying to pay of my credit cards and help with students cost of living. I would not recommend to anyone.

Good afternoon,

I'm sorry to hear that you had a negative experience. We did request more information from you and we appreciate you replying back so that we could look into things. While we do try to approve as many people as possible, there are situations where we can't approve someone which is why we try to recommend another lender that is better suited to help. If there is every anything else we can do, please let us know by contacting our customer service team lead at rachel@loanz.com. I hope you have a wonderful day!

What a load of crap

What a load of crap. What they don’t tell you is that they redirect you to other lenders. All I wanted to do was pay off credit cards, thinking one loan payment would be better. Wrong. Monthly payments were more than the credit card payments combined. Interest rate was 49% over a period of 60 months, for the lender I was offered. No f#%*ing thanks.
*sorry, 46.9%…still no.

Good afternoon Darlene,

We requested more information from you so that we could be of assistance, however, you chose not to provide any. Our interest rates don't go up to 49%, so I would love to dig into this further with you. Please email rachel@loanz.com so that we can try to provide more help in getting you funded.

Sincerely,

Platform Seems Glitchy

Well from what I had first heard about LOANZ, this was supposed to be a simplified process to obtain a loan, but I think there was a glitch on the website when I applied. I opted to do the online banking sign-in as part of the application process but the system auto populated my income wrong and would not let me correct it so unsurprisingly, I was denied for a loan. May try again later, but so far, really not impressed with the platform.

Very bad

Very bad. They want access to your bank account and all your transactions. Not only that they do a credit check while claiming they don't do a credit check. Then they send all of your info to a bunch of companies, MoneyMart etc and then you have to reapply to many of them separately from the application you already did with Loanz. Don't waste your time or give your information away to these people.

Good afternoon Jen,

I apologize for the delay here! It's an option that helps us with income verification and identity verification. It is a third party service used by many major financial institutions for this exact reason! There is an option to skip that step, but it will just require a few more pieces of paperwork and identification so that we can lend the money and be sure of who we are lending to. If you have any questions or concerns you can email rachel@loanz.com who is our customer service team lead. Please let us know if we can help in any other way :)

Sincerely,

I thought I'd give this a try

I thought I'd give this a try. Started the process then the screen would not continue past the banking info. I have emailed and emailed and no response. Been on hold for ages. So I am unclear as to all the rave reviews. Seems that someone should have responded to me, but NOPE! Even requested a call back and again nothing. Maybe in leaving this review will save someone else from trying to get a loan thru this place.
