I had been trying to get a loan of this size at a similar rate for a while now and was having no luck. Upstart was very easy, and had great communication.

upstart was great! They made the loan process easy. The only thing I would change is if you don't get your paperwork in within a certain amount of time it will timeout. But the second loan when through in minutes !

Upstart has given me the opportunity to get out of those high interest credit cards and get a low rate that will help pay off this debt in 3 years instead of 6 years. Thank you Upstart!

Awesome personal, friendly service and quick processing of my loan with no hassle.So much better than big banks with their impersonal rejections based solely on old credit history.

Very responsive - but sometimes a little too much contact. Requesting documents I had already submitted several times was a little frustrating as I was worried they hadn't been received. However, everyone I talked to was very nice and the process was incredibly quick.

Upstart was able to help me and my family when it seemed like we didn't have many options. The whole approval process was much easier than expected and the interest rates were very affordable. Thanks Upstart!!

Due to unfortunate events in my life I wasn’t able to keep up with my payments. My account was sent to a collection agency and I have been making on-time payments for almost a year as I try to rebuild my credit. Despite my on time payments to their collection company, Upstart still reports a negative charge off/collection to the credit bureaus monthly, drastically affecting my credit score. This doesn’t seem fair to me!

wtf. I Filled out, everything on line supposedly was pre approved and qualified from the web site just need the additional documents. I’m an independent truck driver. Showed them proof of income with deposits from my pay that are direct deposited into my account. These deposits clearly show the company I get paid from with the deposits...bottomline is if they can’t use the documents that they requested or for that matter accept them. Then this sounds like it’s clearly a sham lender! Don’t waste your time with their easy application and approval.

I had an awful experience with Upstart. I typed my email address in wrong on the application and it took an act of God almost to correct it. I was approved for the loan and they said the funds would be in account the next day. I called the next day because there was an error message on my account. I talked to 3 people and they finally said it was because something showed up on my credit report that was not there the day before. I would never tell anyone to try and get a loan with this company they don't know what they are talking about.

Very insulting, application process was easy but they request more than necessary in my opinion. All they still need is my DNA. The video they me take of myself was odd and insulting. What they're going to do with it now. Watch it over and over and laugh at me. They pre-approved me, then I submitted everything they needed, and I means everything and them some. Did the video and phone interview to get denied 5 days later after getting my approval e-mail.

Yep...don't waste your time!.... after a process of stringing a customer along for almost a week with no end in sight between emails and personal information.... >> then I get an email saying I have been approved...go into sign 1/2 hr. later and message pops ups...oops... you had a hard hit to your credit report and the loan was denied... I had never applied anywhere else... this place is a joke!

its total ripped off. i have a loan with this company. they will charged you a big amount for finance charge which will be deducted from the principal loan., plus the monthly interest rates. if you wanna pay off the loan you can't get away with the interest cause its already included in the total amount that you have to pay off! STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY IT WAS TOO LATE FOR ME!!!!!!!

I thought that Upstart was the best way for me to consolidate my debt. Just as I was about to accept my loan for roughly $6,400, I read through the Promissory note, only to find that they were trying to charge me $3,700 as a finance charge! Forget these guys. I was super excited, but if something seems too good to be true, it probably is. They are not up front about these fees or charges at all throughout the process. Like the two reviews before mine, I can't quite understand all of the positive reviews on this company. It's almost as if they've written the reviews themselves.

I don't understand all the positive reviews. My experience has been terrible. APR bait and switch. They've completely blown their own deadlines for loan approval, we're more than a week from application, with no updates at all. Endless waits on telephone hold, and when I did finally get through (after 50 minutes on hold), agent was totally rushed and barely competent. Feels like this company is melting down. Like the reviewer before me, I'm walking away.

This was a HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE. I have excellent credit, a full-time job. I am a contract worker and they had NO idea how to process this --despite millions of people being contract workers. The manager admitted they didn't know how to process these. I sent paper after paper; it was never enough. They never told me one way or the other if I got the loan or not. GO THROUGH A LENDER THAT KNOWS WHAT THEY ARE DOING. Plus, the interest rate wasn't much less than I pay now. I have a Master's degree, good credit, a long work history. Their advertising ins FALSE.

So went through the process of applications and then it’s been 3 days and 3 payments of like 200+ dollars they asked for in eBay cards they seem like a legal scam business and we were supposed to get money in bank account but just more fees of 300 had to shell out half of what the loan was for

These people are very unprofessional, They tell you one thing and then do another, Their fees are very high and they act like they are better than you because you are needing to borrow money. Do yourself a favor go to another lender.

Difficult, unreasonable application information and docs requested. In the end, I got denied with a 725 credit rating. Don't bother not work it. I got a 20k lending club loan in one day with no docs and very little information provided. Easy peasy!!

Poorly run. They advertise that they can approve you for a loan before affecting your credit. However even if you get preapproved and supply all the relevant accurate proof of information they can still deny you in the final step after they have already ruined your credit.

I qualified for a great rate, found the proccess straightforward and simple, but once they discovered I was deployed overseas in the military (disclosed by me) but still with a home in the U.S., they stopped the proccess and revoked their approval. Wonderful thanks for keeping them safe.

DO NOT, FOR THE LOVE OF [WHOEVER] APPLY!!! They have your personal information, check your credit, and then tell you you can't afford the debt consolidation loan EVEN THOUGH I HAVE A PRE APPROVAL. These people are information seekers. The #10 ratings are fake ratings. trust me. Look for the low ratings and know those are the true ones.

I just applied for a loan, score of 690 with a Masters degree, salary near 100k, with moderate amount of savings and assets--given an 18% rate for 35k to payoff a student loan at 6.5%. Why on earth would I agree to that? The point of applying for this type of loan is to lower the interest rate, not multiply it times three!!
