We entered a loan agreement with Wisetack for 3 payments of $3332.24 over a period of 90 days. First payment was scheduled for payment due date of 6/7/2025. However, received an email notice that no payment was scheduled, which was confirmed on website. As a result, unknowingly scheduled a payment to avoid a default on loan. However, Wisetack withdrew two payments on same day and reports they cannot refund/credit account. Refunds require 60 day timeline. I am filing this complaint to warn consumers to not use this loan agency. Their website is not accurate and they will trick you into submitting additional payments when payments are not due. **************** dismissed my calls, which were made the day after the payments posted, because they reported there is nothing they can do. When I requested my call be escalated to a supervisor, I was placed on hold for 20 minutes and then hung up. Terrible customer service,Business Response

****** *** contacted me to provide the option of refund or apply payment to next invoice, Unfortunately, because of the slow response the only option was to apply the payment to the next invoice.

Wisetack Loan ID: ************************ April 2025 I had my leather seats redone at the Autoplex Window *************** Accessories. I requested financing through Wisetack for $1911.26. I had to use my debit card to set up my account for the first payment. The next day I received e-mails from Wisetack to set up my account & make sure all of my information was correct. One of the e-mails I received at 0301hrs on 23 April acknowledge that my first payment of $492.26 was taken out from my debt card. This was confirmed by me after I logged into my bank account and saw the charge.The next thing I did when logged in to my account was set up auto pay so I would not miss any of the last 3 payments. This is where all of the problems start. At 1101hrs 23 April I received another e-mail saying they were processing another payment of $492.26 this one being ACH Debt from my checking account that just a few hours before when I set up autopay.I then immediately contact Wisetack by phone (***************) & eventually spoke to 2 different customer service representatives each telling me that I have to wait until the payment clears before the can process a refund for the double payment.On the 28th of April when I logged into my account I noticed a Payment reversal processing tab with $492.26 to be credited back to my debt card. I then waited until 6 may which was the 6th business day & not charge back to my debt card was completed.I then contact customer service at the same number above and the representative told me it might take another 24 to 48 hours to be charged back to my debt care. I also contacted my credit union to ask if they have seen any charge backs to my debt ******** was told they cannot see anything until it is deposited back into my account.When you contact customer service they tell you what you want to hear, but do ********** of today 9 May 2025 there has been no charge back to my debt card.Business Response

On April 24, Wisetack was recommended to me by my Rentokill *** to finance a big job. I filled out the application, unfroze my credit and was approved quickly. They came back when the job was finished to confirm and then released the funds. The following week I was contacted by accounts payable at ********* for an outstanding bill. They had no record of Wisetack financing. In the meantime, I started getting attempts to check my credit from *******, Wisetack's lender. I called Wisetack who took 24 hours to figure out what happened. They said no one ever onboarded the application and needed me to unfreeze my credit for at least 72 hours for them to do their process. I won't do that. I asked to call ******* together, do it on the phone, they refused. So I paid ********* directly and emailed Wisetack to cancel the application. They have refused and I've gone back and forth with their obnoxious support team who refuses to do anything until they hear from Rentokill that it's cancelled. Rentokill accounts payable has no record of Wisetack even being attached to this job, so who would cancel it? My *** called twice and they claim they've never heard from him. In the meantime, ******* has attempted to run my credit ***** times a day for over a week. It's now turned into harassment. Calling ******* doesn't help because the new loan **** doesn't have a record of me, it's all controlled internally at Wisetack. Lifelock contacts me every time my credit is run which is incredibly disruptive, but thankful my credit is locked or Wisetack would have ruined my near perfect credit score.Business Response

I am writing to formally express my serious concerns regarding how your company engaged with my elderly parents in February 2025.They requested a simple termite inspection required to refinance their home that should have cost under $150. Instead, without even inspecting the house, your representative pressured them into agreeing to a $3,000 termite treatment plan. My mother stated that the representative spent the time talking at their kitchen table rather than actually inspecting the property.Upon learning this, I contacted their mortgage team, who agreed my father had been misled. Together, we canceled the unauthorized services and hired a reputable company that performed a legitimate inspection for $150, confirming no termite issues.Despite the cancellation, Wisetack returned to their home and attempted to spray the house without authorization. Thankfully, my father sent them away. Now he is receiving collection calls demanding nearly $400 for services neither needed nor approved. After explaining the situation to the collection agency, they agreed to open an investigation.Taking advantage of the elderly especially during a critical financial process like refinancing is disgraceful. Wisetacks actions reflect unethical business practices and border on fraud.I demand all collection efforts cease immediately and that any charges or claims against my parents be dismissed.Business Response

Thank you again for bringing this matter to our attention. We take concerns like this very seriously and are committed to making sure it gets resolved.
To clarify, Wisetack is not a pest control company and does not provide termite inspections, treatments, or in-home services. We are a financing platform that enables independent home service providers to offer their customers flexible payment options. These businesses operate independently and are responsible for the services they provide, including all interactions with their customers.
We have spoken directly with both the borrower and their daughter and appreciate their willingness to work with us toward a resolution. The borrower confirmed that no services or installations were performed and that they only requested a basic termite inspection, not a treatment plan. Based on this, we have confirmed with the merchant to secure a full refund and cancellation of the financing.
Weve also confirmed with our lending partner, Citizens Pay, that the refund is being finalized, and they will fully reverse any credit impact associated with this transactionincluding removing any credit inquiries and eliminating any trade line reporting.
We remain committed to seeing this through to a fair resolution and are available both by phone and email should any other concerns arise.

Has opened multiple lines of credit in my name after the initial request based on a new invoice to use the same line of credit for a higher finance amount. They continue to tell me I have to open a new line of credit even though I already have one open so continue to hit my credit report over and over againBusiness Response

Dear *******,
Thank you for sharing your concerns. We understand your frustration and want to clear up the confusion around the financing process.
For existing Citizens Pay customers, each additional purchase where financing is requested via the Wisetack platform, Wisetack will check that you have sufficient available credit on your existing Citizens Pay Line of Credit to support that purchase. While this process mirrors the new application process, this check does not require a hard inquiry on your credit report, nor will a new line of credit be opened with Citizens Pay.
We spoke with you directly on April 16, 2025, to walk through this and answer your questions, and we hope that helped clarify things. If you have any further questions, please dont hesitate to reach out to us at ************************************************************ or **************.

Wisetack is partnered with Ergeon, a fence installer here in *********, **. Ergeon bait and switched their product by using a 3rd party installer that was not outlined in the contract. The salesman for Ergeon, sold Wisetack to me as a credit-check free payment option. I had the cash on hand to pay in full but figured why not pay over time if it wasnt going to be reported to any credit bureaus? Unbeknownst to me, Wisetack reported the product amount + the high interest charges. They have not responded to any of my complaints. I had even reached out to the salesman when i first found out about the 3rd party, but never got a call/email back.Business Response

Early February of 2025 I began to rehab my property (listed in this complaint) we needed extensive plumbing work and it just so happens my Brother in law is a licensed plumber so naturally I would use him to do the work. This is pretty typical in the trades it makes ZERO sense to use the competition to do work you need done when a licensed, insured, company is operated by a family member. So I get the estimate for the work to be done and it is more than I have on hand. No problem... the company offers financing. So I go through the process and get approved. The work gets done and comes to time to pay, everything went well and all was approved by Wisetack to pay the bill. A few hours later my brother in law let's me know that wisetack changed their mind because we are related. What! You are telling me I can't pay them for the work because I am related to the owner of the company! This is ridiculous. My brother in law reached out to them and their response was, "Tough Luck!" I am so heartbroken this happened to my Brother in law's company and me, and now I don't know what to do! They should have made me aware of this stupid policy in the PREQUALIFICATION not AFTER the work is done. I am seriously considering a lawsuit for damages and that they pay for the work done. In the meantime I would be satisfied if they simply fulfill their obligation and not discriminate against people based on their bloodlines.Business Response

Thank you for reaching out with this concern and allowing us time to look into it. The merchants that we have on our platform must follow Wisetacks Terms of Service and User Agreement, which state that owners, employees, and their family members are not permitted to apply for financing through Wisetack.

I am rejecting this response because:1. You hit my credit and impacted my score.
2. You didn't inform ME during the initial approval this would be an issue.
3. Your policy is ridiculous since it excludes B2B situations which THIS is.
4. You are literally discriminating against people based on their bloodlines and in this case who they marry.
5. I am STILL responsible for the bill for work performed.
Your response is in no way solving the problem at hand.
