Great Support and Helpful ServiceI had an issue with my account and reached out to support for help. Bill took the time to look into it, helped get my original account restored, and made sure my advance offer was available again. I appreciate his willingness to help and follow up with me. He also mentioned an upcoming feature that may allow for higher advances, which I’m looking forward to learning more about. Thank you for your help,
Not really too excited about it.

Got approved for $30. Okay, not a big deal, it helped so much. I was only sent $14 though and I still have to pay back the whole $30. Not sure if the rest were fees or whatever. I was thinking that maybe I was able to use some then and the rest later, but it shows that the whole payback was $30 and nothing besides that $14 was sent to me directly. But paying back more than I was able to use doesn’t make much sense. However, although this was my experience, I was still able to be approved and was still able to have something sent to my bank. So it isn’t a fake app, I just don’t get having to pay back more than I was actually sent. As if I am paying interest or something. If I got approved for an amount, I, like anyone else, would expect to be sent that amount. Again, give it a try if you wish, amounts vary by person and situation. Just letting it be known what happened to me, I am not trying to stop anyone from taking a chance.
The WORST DON’T USE

Somehow I been using Earnifi for the past 5 months and it’s progressively gotten worse. SMH I didn’t have my payroll linked, since my job still lives in the stone ages and can’t do split accounts, so I started out getting $20, with $6 being deposited after the subscription fee was taken out. Cool, paid off everything early/ on time and kept on paying the subscription. Finally got to where I could borrow a whopping $47. Like normal paid it off and the subscription on time. Then now the next time I go to borrow, it’s taking up to 48 hours to review and a team member is supposed to to contact me if they have additional questions. Never hear anything back. Nothing changed besides the date. Same job, same expenses, same everything. New results. SMH after trying multiple times on several different occasions, I finally gave up and cancelled my subscription and deleted my account. Tried one more time, got approved for the same $20 again. Cool but now it wouldn’t let me go thru without linking an employer. Yeah I’m all the way thru with this BS app. Use Cleo, bright money, Dave, bright, anybody but Earnifi!
They received money from me twice and won’t refund me

I am currently disputing an advance repayment that was taken from me twice and I can not get anyone in the phone to understand the real issue. I keep getting automated emails with the same response. I had my advance set to be repaid via my direct deposit but I forgot it was set up that way so I paid the advance a day early then took the advance out again. Then the next morning I realized they also received funds from my paycheck. But because I took the advance out again it looks like I’m just repaying that advance which is not the case. They were double repaid and I want my money back. I will never do this again! If they don’t fix this I will have to go through my bank! I’m so tired of not being able to talk to a real person!
