This company targeted me for a loan of an estate. That was closing in less than 40 8:00 after they gave me the loan. And they tried to say, they had no idea the financials, they tried to charge me up to $19000 for a $10000 loan. I've had nothing but problems from this company since day one. They tried to send
A sizable check to an address that I told him was fraudulent. Multiple times and continued to try to send it to that address.
And the rates for this company are astronomical

My husband died December 18th 2025
My husband died December 18th 2025. I had no idea what to do and I was losing my apartment and I had no money. I sent the people my lawyers info and they didn't call me. I had to keep calling them and I was getting upset. I have never had to go through anything like this in my life. You people need to understand that I am a human being and I had just lost my husband. They just don't care about the people who are in need. After I pay you back I will never call you for anything. I have had to beg for your help. It's crazy that you don't care about your customers.

Highly distressing disappointing
Highly distressing disappointing customer service experience dealing with the loan officer processing my estate cash advance request. I learned about estate advances from an offer letter to request a advance that came in the mail a year prior. I called late morning 3/09/26. The rep said he'd follow up with me later that day on advance status after he researches my probate case, but didn't. I've been knowingly mislead and jerked around from the start. After speaking with him he sent a text to send the name of the decedent, state and county. I next heard from him 10 next morning confirming the home is paid off, after I confirmed he requested pic of my ID and email add, 4 hours later he asked if I'd been evicted from the estate house, I confirmed, he said info helps process my app, after that afternoon he fell off the map, though he's only ever communicated by text I'd been checking my email spam daily. A week later 3/17 he texted late evening after 6 saying he didn't forget about me, is waiting for approval and hopes to get it soon, and will update me as soon as he hears back, earlier this day I'd reached out to another cash advance company a bit in it's infancy, I wasn't got back with, this and IF Co loan officer resurfacing same day seems it's possible the companies are sisters or affiliates. It's now roughly a week later 3/23/26 and I've not heard back from IF Co - his knowingly misleading communications has caused me great distress and very significant loss of time in figuring out something else - the company will only advance a minimum of 5k, I feel if they at least lowered their minimum to 3 this would be a better sense of community to help out those who may not need quite as much as 3, and definitely do not need or can hold off on 5, and still enable themselves to make money.

Clearly not the brightest people out there.
Their mailing states "Know you are working with the best". They couldn't even get the last name of the Dead guy spelled right, or mine either for that matter and it is on the legal documents they accessed to send me their mailing.

I just called this company to get help…
I just called this company to get help with understanding my options in regards to an inherited property with my siblings after the death of my father. The person I spoke to (Paul) was not only not helpful, he was extremely rude. I was trying to get basic info about the services offered as it's been difficult to understand what my options are to buy out my siblings from their share of the property, etc. Paul not only didn't help me, he hung up the phone on me without even saying goodbye or being very kind or understanding about what I was asking. After the loss of my father and everything there is to deal with, I just needed help understanding how this company might be able to assist us in our process. I would think people who work there would be a lot more sensitive to dealing with people in grief who are overwhelmed. This guy was pretty much just a jerk.

No Compassion during Pandemic
They were more than happy to get me 15k in a timely manner and I was to pay back 5k in 6 months. Well then the pandemic hit without warning and the world shut down for the first time in history closing the courts and making it impossible to do anything. Where other loan companies are working with their clients and offering grace periods and relief THIS company is looking at the pandemic as an opportunity to charge their clients 85% interest( unheard of) Even after explaining that my husband lost his job and we are barely hanging on, they called me by the wrong name and talked about how the situation is hurting them more and that they are charging me $12000 on a $15000 advance. Kind of feels like they are stealing from me since this has basically been an act of God.
