Hi Shanecqua,
Thanks for the feedback and the opportunity to ensure you're fully supported.
We've reached out via email clarifying that our upfront membership model unlocks all-included features designed to help support financial well-being:
• Pay in 2 – Gives verified Deferit members access to $50 via a virtual card for everyday, non-discretionary purchases.
• Bill Pay – A convenient way to pay bills while continuing to build positive payment history, especially for bills not eligible for Pay in 4.
• Credit Builder – Maintaining an active account and making early or on-time payments may help positively impact your credit score
• Bill Negotiation – We can help reduce eligible bills. No cost to try as it's success-based.
• Pay in 4 – Allows worry-free bill payment while providing budgeting flexibility, supporting a wide range of bills, such as utilities, internet, phone, and car registrations.
Note: New members are typically approved of a starting Pay in 4 limit between $100-$400—which increases over time with continued use and positive payment history. Should your bill exceed your current limit, the difference will simply be added to the initial installment, making sure your bill still gets paid as you pay us back flexibly with the remaining installments.
We appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns directly and provide clarity around how our service model operates. Our goal is always for members to feel genuinely supported and confident in how situations are managed.
If you have any other questions or require further support, please don't hesitate to reply directly—we remain committed to supporting you.

Stolen membership fee
I was charged a membership fee 2 days before the renewal date. I cancelled the membership and requested a refund (email confirmation). It took 2 days for someone to confirm the memberships had been canceled and membership deactivated. I was told the fee would be reimbursed only for them to turn around and tell my account was still active. This shit is a scam.

Hi Jasz,
Thank you for bringing your concern to our attention and the opportunity to clarify.
Following a comprehensive review of your account activity, we've followed up via email confirming verified usage as you were completing your Pay in 4 bill's flexible repayment, which falls within the most recent membership period and is therefore valid.
• For reference, you may visit our Terms and Conditions of Service for more information here: https://deferit.com/en-us/terms/#:~:text=Monthly%20Membership%20Fee,utilizing%20the%20Services.
Additionally, we also wanted to provide additional clarity regarding the value included with membership access, as the subscription extends beyond the flexible budgeting offered through Pay in 4 and includes a broader range of features likewise designed to support overall financial wellness, namely:
• Credit Builder – Maintaining an active account and making early or on-time payments may help contribute positively to your credit profile over time.
• Bill Pay – A streamlined way to manage eligible bills while continuing to establish positive payment history, particularly for bills not eligible for Pay in 4.
• Bill Negotiation – Assistance with negotiating eligible bills on your behalf through a success-based service with no upfront cost to try.
• Pay in 2 -Gives verified Deferit members access to $50 via a virtual card for everyday, non-discretionary purchases (Terms and Conditions apply).
Nonetheless, your membership renewal has been cancelled going forward, and account has been deactivated per your request—no further recurring subscription charges should be incurred.
We appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns directly and provide further clarity regarding both the membership structure and the services available through the platform. Should you have any additional questions or require further assistance, please do not hesitate to reply directly—we remain committed to supporting you.

They did not let me know the bill…
They did not let me know the bill amount they would give until after taking their fee of approximately $15. The approved bill amount they would give is $400. My rent is approximately $1400. That is a waste of my $15. They should let you know the amount they will approve towards the bill before taking your money.
