Very useful app

Very useful app. Cash advance limit is higher than other comparable apps and even after paying back my advance a little late, I was still able to take out another one without being penalized.

This company is a SCAM they have taken multiple different amounts of money from my account that I did not authorize. I was literally robbed by Albert. Stay away!

I have used this app for a while now and it’s been great. Sometimes slow for repayment but other than that it’s great.

Fraudulent behavior

Last month I deactivated my account with Albert because I no longer needed to use a cash advance app, this month I got a subscription charge from them. Even when I explained that I had deactivated my account they refused to refund me.

Predatory Company.

If you’re having trouble with money and going to Albert for help, I’d advise you to stay away. I’m a college student and needed a couple bucks to help get gas for the week. Albert was able to float me $35 which helped. What they didn’t tell me was the fact they charged me $19.99 to do so. I took a cash advance on Friday, and on Tuesday, woke up to this charge on my account. I messaged support, and their response was that I already had an active account, saying I was charged since December (I was not) and refused to issue me a refund for this subscription. I never gave them permission to auto-subscribe for this. They’re sneaky and prey on those already struggling. Take it from me and just stay away from companies like this.
