Deferit has helped me stay on top of paying bills so they aren’t just paid late. It easily splits my payments into 4 separate payments. There’s also other ways to use it that I have not taken advantage of yet but I will try it out

This company takes your money
This company takes your money, accepts your bill and then notifies you later that it isn't a company they work with. Really?? Spectrum Mobile isn't an acceptable bill? And it is prefilled in your drop down list, but you can't pay them? Liars and scammers.
Response from DeferitAug 13, 2025
Hi Genine,
We’re sorry to hear about your experience and appreciate the chance to clarify. We previously supported Spectrum Mobile bill payments; however, due to recent changes from the biller, we can no longer process them online. Spectrum Mobile now requires logging in with sensitive account credentials, which we are prohibited from requesting or storing to protect user privacy. In addition, they do not accept check payments, leaving us without a secure way to complete these transactions. We do, however, still support Spectrum Cable.
We understand this may have caused confusion, and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience. We’ve since replied directly to your email to discuss your options and how you'd wish to proceed.
Your feedback is valuable, as it helps us improve transparency and enhance the Deferit experience. If you have any other questions or need further assistance, please don't hesitate to let us know—we’re eager to support you every step of the way.

Customer Service
After multiple attempts the company did get back to me. So far the process has been smooth.
I paid the fee for my bill to get paid and I HAVE YET TO HEAR FROM THIS COMPANY!! They took my money and as right now my bill has not been paid. My disconnect is on...and I have been screwed. I have tried emailing and no one will respond!! I don't recommend.

I was in a bit of a bind but deferit helped
I was in a bit of a bind with needing to urgently pay a bill and my paycheck being another week away. Thanks to deferit I was able to pay on time, and just pay back the bill over a few weeks instead. It was a quick and easy process. I just set up my account, uploaded my bill, accepted the payment schedule and deferit took care of the rest. My bill was paid within hours.

I lost my debit card and reported it … updated with company retaliation
I lost my debit card and reported it as such, before I even received the new one in the mail despite them having my checking account and a different card on file, my Deferit account was "restricted" as it was "flagged" by the "banking system" and if I am me, I should contact them "immediately." IMMEDIATELY. Except, small problem, there is not an immediately for Deferit, as they "do not offer phone support" to allow for more engaging conversations via email with their "Customer Heros" and there are "no scripts." Because obviously no one uses a template in customer service when responding to an email. After more than a week, Deferit has replied, asking for the strangest forms of verification I have ever seen--and I worked in banking for decades. Red flags everywhere. Run, don't walk. I'm not providing they're strange verification request, already canceled my account, but I can't pay for anything I owe them. I should have known better.
Edit:
Following the company's response, my account was immediately restricted again, without any indication of a reason or notification. All I want is my membership fee returned as well as the "tip" with my first bill payment. Regardless, this company will destroy, your credit, and your time, with fees and retaliation, as evident by this review.
2nd Update: Company responded with compassionate resolution based on perhaps a mutual misunderstanding, real people are answering emails.
