Ratings and Reviews
Was nice to work with
I used Upgrade from approximately 2017 to the end of 2021. Whenever I needed help I was typically able to get through to customer service, I appreciated that their customer service spoke very clear English without foreign accents. That is not intended to offend anybody, but some people struggle to clearly understand if accents are too thick. Anyways, during 2020 as a business owner we certainly felt the squeeze and Upgrade was there to offer us numerous options to reduce our payments to help us through tough times. Through all of it we were able to complete our loan with a 100% payment history as well as gain great credit benefits for the service we received. Ultimately, if you take a loan for the right reason and can make more money from it than the interest your paying your making a good decision, but life sometimes needs money for things that do not make any returns, but either way, if you run into trouble this lender may be able not work with you so it’s a good choice if you need a loan.
Incompetent customer service
I held a live chat with Stephanie on 9/13 through the app as I had added a new checking account for my auto pay but it wouldn’t let me select it as the default account and I’m in the process of closing the old account. She told me it was all set up with the new account and that my old account had been deactivated. She lied. On 9/17 I checked the app and it still looked like the payment was coming out of the old account. I live chatted again with Rachel who told me once you add a new account the old account is deactivated but since the payment had already started processing out of my old account this too was a lie. Finally I called and talked to a rep I did not catch his name and while he was nice and disabled my auto pay for me (so far the only rep to actually do anything). I was told that they would not reimburse me for any fees my old bank would charge me even though I would only be charged those fees because of their mistake. He double checked to see if he could get me reimbursement if I am charged NSF fees (hopefully I won’t because as soon as I found out about their screw up I started a transfer from my new account to my old account) and was told a firm no that they would not. This is egregious to admit they are the cause but then make no amends for their mistake is unbelievable to me. Customer service is dead.
Thank you so much Upgrade for your wonderful business
I would like to express my appreciation to upgrade, for their professionalism, wonderful service and for the quick processing my application. I’ve felt frustrated to read some bad reviews about Upgrade” Applicants should know that in this life there’s a winner and a loser. I’ve experienced before to get declined and it’s hurt , much more if you needed it so badly.. but try to figure it out what went wrong and then fix / improve the missing dots and move forward. Somehow a long the way you’ll find a company that will give you a chance… but try not to write too much negative reviews as if it is the end of the world.. Be positive … breath as tomorrow is another day”
For me , my experience with Upgrade is very positive and professional and really thanked them for taking a chance with me.
Thank you so much Upgrade!
