Brigit: Fast Cash Advance 4+

I’m giving them 5stars because hopefully, the odds of someone reading this before downloading the app, will read it. STAY AWAY. I don’t even know where to start… the 250 cash advance is a total lie. My husband makes 100k+ a year, he also has this app and I constantly see emails in our joint email account that Brigit automatically deposited 50 DOLLARS… not even he can get over 50. He doesn’t seem to care as he makes too much money to even notice. But for my situation… it’s not even about the loan amount. Their service all around is just abysmal.. you need to re-enter your debit card info constantly (and takes days to update), their customer service support is garbage if not, just straight up nonexistent. The copy/paste soulless response this review will get be 100% by far they most they’ve ever acknowledged me.. you have REQUEST to have your account back to a free service from a 10$ month sad excuse of a service.. REQUEST TO DEACTIVATE YOUR ACCOUNT.. like what universe are they in?.. how do they have the gall to make you jump through hoops just have your account deactivated?… ugh. There SO MUCH more I can rant about how truly awful Brigit is. But I’m not giving them more energy. Hopefully my “request” to have my account deactivated will approve (my God.. they’re so pathetic) please stay away from this app. I definitely recommend Earnin and Dave over, refuse Brigit..

Updated 6/13/23: It sounds like your husband’s advances are happening because he chose to turn on Auto Advances—where we will automatically send you the amount we believe you will need if you are at risk of overdrafting. This service is entirely optional and can be turned off at any time under Settings. Additionally, also under Settings, you’re able to downgrade your account to the Free plan at any time right in the app.

Please note that we set Instant Cash limits based on multiple factors, not just how much income a user might make. To determine this amount, we look at your spending behavior, bills, average balance, and deposit history. So not everyone is approved for larger amounts.
Our goal is to help you avoid financial issues by granting advance amounts that take into consideration what we think you will need, as well as what you will be able to comfortably repay.

4/19/2023 We have several requirements to ensure that an advance from Brigit helps you make it to payday worry-free. They’re designed to help you avoid additional financial issues. The amount that Brigit approved you for will get you to payday worry-free. We look at your expenses in determining this amount and the ability to pay back on your payday. If you have any additional questions you can contact us and get answers 24/7 here https://www.hellobrigit.com/support.

I gave it five stars because that is the only reviews you will see. I initially got this app to see about the advance you can get. I got approved and got the advances by starting a subscription. It was $9.99 per month. I tried it, checked out the features, paid back the advances, then changed my mind. That’s when the problem started. I have tried through the app then the website several times over months trying to cancel it. When I finally got to talk to a customer service person through chat then email, I sent them a screenshot of the cancellation confirmation I initially had but they kept charging me, they said they would fix it, but that never happened. Now when I try to cancel it says my phone number is incorrect on the website but the app says it’s verified, there is no longer an option to cancel in the app, it says go to the website. It’s an endless loop to nowhere. I finally had to open an online bank account, change the banking information in the app, and then close the online bank account to stop the $9.99 a month coming out of my bank. I had to also alert my actual bank about the fraudulent charges, showing them my initial cancellation, to make sure no other charges are coming from this app. Beware of this app!!**

I’m a reader of reviews, and have never been a writer of them unless I’m shocked enough. That just happened as I started to read the reviews for Brigit. The very first review I started to read began with a lie. This review wasn’t a quick one either. I kept going and all the way through till the end, I continued to read what I know to be false. Everyone is entitled to an opinion because they’re subjective, however, fact as fact, and it’s a fact that Brigit is not only simple to navigate,if your especially looking to get a cash advance, the process from start to finish is so quick! Listen, I’m going through a rough time financially, I’ve been overdrafted and my bank account balance is consistently very low. Brigit, really goes out of their way to accommodate their customers when other Cash Advance apps won’t. After seeing such a negative, and false review and depiction of this app, I felt forced to challenge the reviewer especially when it said Brigit is constantly malfunctioning, and slow to produce the cash I promise to send promptly. I’ve never once had a problem when trying to connect to my bank and I also have never had to wait more than a few minutes for an advance to be sent to my account! Seriously, top 3 cash advance apps.
