I called loan express today to find out why my my account was put on hold and was told by the manager, who's name was "accidentally" not mentioned, that because I filed a complaint with the BBB in the past, that they are refusing to give me a loan despite the fact that the initial problem regarding my bank account has been resolved.

Hello. This customer did not meet the criteria to be approved for a loan. BBB reviews are not factored into that criteria. The decline occurred before the review was made. Upon Decline the customer threatened to go to the media if they were not approved. Due to harassment by the customer the account has been closed.

I am rejecting this response because:
I now meet the criteria to apply for a loan, but am being refused in retaliation. Their accusations of harassment are false as well.

Someone took out a loan with Loan Express using my information. I have filed a police report and let Loan Express know. I did not receive any money and I did not sign any agreements. They did a trace and confirmed the money went to someone else. They are still expecting me to pay the loan back and will not put a freeze on the loan. They said it's because "the loan is under my information".

Hello. We don't know that the loan was taken out fraudulently. That is up to the police to decide. The loan has been put on hold until that determination comes in.
Thank you

Complaint: 22608419

I am rejecting this response because: I have already been told multiple times by Loan Express that they do not care if it was me who took out the loan and that i will be held responsible either way.
It is your responsibility to have appropriate authentication systems in place, like requiring secondary authentication when signing in from an unknown IP address. I wont accept responsibility for a loan that was fraudulently obtained under my name by someone else.

I signed a contract for an instant etransfer loan at 1:00 am and was told the money would be in my account within 5 min. I have borrowed from this company several times and never had an issue receiving money. It has been 9 and a half hours and I still have not received my funds; although it says I have an active loan on my account. I have emailed several times with no response and I have tried calling and it says the phones are closed. I am now going to have to pay back a loan that I never received. I want some answers.

Hello. Apologies that it took a while. Sometimes transfers are blocked by interac. They nay do this for security for your account, to investigate the transfer etc. We have no control over when or why they do this. After many hours they eventually unblock or reject the transfer. I see you did receive the money. Thank you for reaching out.

On January 5 2024 I applied for a loan with loan express. The money from that was then e-transfered to an email that someone else had access to and received my loan instead of myself. Loan express then did an investigation and found the person who claimed my Loan. The person named in the images also deleted all my contact emails with loan express customer service.. ********************** is now making me pay back a loan I never received. On Feb 16, they took $97 from my account.. I would like that back
Business Response

Hello. We sent the money to the email address you asked us to. If money is sent to your email address and someone steals it from you it is still your responsibility to pay it back. If you buy groceries from the store, and a person who has access to your house takes them, you cannot go back to the store and ask for your money back. It's your responsibility to take care of your email address.

I did initially apply for a loan with this company in December, and never heard back. I followed up again yesterday and received an approval. I simply asked if I could do a pay date bump as sometimes our payroll has delays. I got a very flippant response just saying they cant proceed, without giving me the chance to even respond. I had not even entered into an agreement at that point, and the level of service was already bad.I then responded as I noticed my loan was removed from their website with no notice. I understand the nature of the business, but to me this screams shady business practice. Ive never experienced this before in my life. I then noticed my account was put on hold as I asked a few simple questions.I know I will most likely get another flippant response here. This is not a way to treat a customer you already made wait. I understand you may have had issues with other customers in the past so this is your way of dealing, but I am not those people. Word of mouth is a powerful force, and its not very good practice to do this without my even being a customer as of yet.You cannot punish someone for asking a question, unless you are just looking to silence people which is a whole other issue.

I have loaned from this company 3 consecutive times with no issues. on November 17th 2023 my payment was to come out, this went smoothly, i was notified through text message what payments came out that was and how much each transaction was, Wednesday the following week i got an email from loans express stating the transaction was not complete, i checked my account, the payment did not come back NSF or reversed, in which i knew it wouldn't , i contacted loan express that day within business hours to see what happened as i never had a problem before, they advised the payment was returned by my bank, i waited for 10 days then checked with my bank, there was no returned payment for the transaction, they sent me a letter stating it was successful and then proceeded to send me a monthly statement proving the payment was successful, i sent this all to loan express and they didn't accept that i was in fact paid, fast forward to today (dec 9/23) and they are still saying it wasn't paid, i rechecked with my bank and they said it has been paid and sent me more documents, on top of a dispute form so they can launch another investigation. Loan express is refusing to acknowledge my payment and went ahead and charged me again on dec 1/23 for another payment of 278 in which they said that wasn't paid either.

Hello. Your bank notified us the payment didn't clear. We have documentation to confirm this and that they did not give us the money. Please have your bank open the investigation so they can send us new information and provide us with the funds. If you email us tomorrow we can provide you with the documents. Thank you

On November 20th I reached out to this payday loan company called loan express that I had a debt with from 2015 eight years ago. I asked If I could clear up the debt and get a fresh start because I needed a loan for my rent that is pastdue and that I have an eviction notice I tell him i need a new loan of **** and can I loan with them even though I bank with **** who most lenders deny because of this fact he says **** is no problem. I think great I'm going to pay them in the morning * **** ** * ******* **** ** ***** ******* *** ** ******* and I go to my bank deposit the last of my cash and when I get home I get emailed my receipt and than i go Logon to my loan express customer account and it says it's on hold locked I called them and asked to speak to the owner who wasn't in at all that day I waited to hear from him phone text email nothing,rather he gets his staff to respond to my emails and they have no real explanation on his duping me into paying that old debt in full I hopes of obtaining a new loan than just blocking my means of doing so one of the employees even says you can send in as many applications as you want you won't be approved so snarky rude inconsiderate and unprofessional. What I'm seeking today is a refund of what I sent and I'll agree to do monthly payments of 100 dollars via e-transfer the day I get reimbursed I'll send ****** and have this paid off by March **** * ** * ****** *** * **** **** **** * **** *** **** *** ** * ****** ******** **** *** ***** ****** *** * **** ** ** ***** ******** **** ** ** ******** *** *** *** **** ****** *** ** ** ******* *** ***** *** Please acknowledge that it's not right to string someone along trick them and than never explain or justify yourself that is not how I imagined the owner would behave. I'm one extremely dissatisfied customer I hope this matter gets resolved and we can move past this in a respectful way.Kind regards ***************************

Dat eof transaction is Sept 27th 2023.Loan Express was notified of impending bankruptcy on my part I had placed a stop payment of this last month and they changed their names and went back into my account and took the money anyway** ** ********* * ******** ******** ******* that lives on less than ****** per yr.I asked them to not take the payment and bankruptcy will be in touch with them.I asked them to provide me with proof of said loan and they have not and will not submit any documents to me.If they have proof of said loan I'd like to review it because I know for a fact I didn't sign anything to this company infact I was denied because I was in a consumer proposal at the time.The stop payment was placed in Aug of 2023 and they just changed the name of the company taking money out if my account and now they refuse to cooperate, now I could face eviction because I can't pay my rent I can't buy food and I can't pay for the medication I need.They refuse to answer any of my questions and they will nit give me any proof that this loan us legit.I just want my money back as they have been included in my bankruptcy. The bankruptcy is in process.I don't find this professional or fair that these companies can do this. Pay day loan companies should be banned.

If you didn't take the loan why did you contact us and tell us not to take payment? If you have no proof of the loan how did you know that we were going to take payment. If you don't have a copy of the contract how did you know what days we were going to take the loan. Why are you sending us bankruptcy information if you didn't take a loan?
