Last year I went into advanced financial in Jefferson City, Tennessee. I took a loan out, paid it off. Went back for two more other loans. I noticed that every time I came back I asked what to pay off. Was any attendant present? Could never give me an accurate figure. I tried to do the math but I'm not stupid. I knew they have some absurd finance percentages and the reality of it all is they try to fudge the numbers and get you to pay more than you do. My interest rate was based on the year today which they had documented wh... read more

Advance financial is the worst loan company I’ve ever dealt with. I got just a $1500 loan. I have paid quite a bit on it and it only moved $30. It’s like it’s only paying 1.5% of your loan while the rest goes toward interest so with that being said you will never be able to pay off this loan.

This institution wasted my time and cost me money to provide the documents they needed. I received a pre-qualified letter for 4000, and was ultimately declined. Leave me alone and off your list. Please.

AF 24/7 is worst than predatory lending and it should be illegal to charge these types of fees. Fee-based loan is their claim which simply means that all your payments go to their fees unless you pay them off in full. If you make payments only 1.5% of those payments go to the balance. Their representatives cannot give you an answer as to how many installment payments you will make because you will pay them FOREVER if you do not pay them in full. They never mention what the fees are and you think its a minimal amount ($40 or ... read more
Bottom line is NEVER use this company or any other like it. They prey on the working class poor and loans can never really be paid off. Very poor judgment on my part to ever use this kind of high interest loan company. I just want to warn anyone who feels the need to use them, DON'T. You will fully regret it. These type of loan companies should be illegal. My mother tried to warn me, but I was desperate and then life happens. You get a loan for 300$ and then eventually owe 6000$.

Don’t know about the loans but don’t ever get the free money order from them if it’s stolen you have to pay a fee and then if someone cashed it illegally you will not get your money back

I took out a $2,400 loan over a year ago to help me pay off some of my bills and catch up on them. I have paid back well over $2500 or more than that. By now I pay about $500 a month and I am on Social Security disability, I cannot get out from under this loan it is causing me so much stress and heartache. It is making me so sick to my stomach daily and monthly, I have a little boy that I have to take care of and all I was trying to do was catch up on my bills. I feel like I’m being taken advantage of. I feel I will never ev... read more
They are a terrible company. I was not informed of the amount owed after the loan. I have paid more than double the loan amount already. They continue to harass and threaten me with lawsuits
