early payments

If I want to make a early payment, it should not be counted as an extra payment.

Reply from Happy Money

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We understand how frustrating it can be when a payment doesn't behave the way you expect it to. When an early payment is made, it is applied to your account in accordance with the terms of your loan agreement, which may result in it being processed differently than a standard scheduled payment. We'd love the opportunity to walk you through how your payments are being applied and address any concerns you may have. Please don't hesitate to reach out.

I love Happy Money

I love Happy Money! Here lately I’ve been trying my hardest to get out of debt, but felt like no matter how much I paid on my credit cards, the 30% was just slowing it down horribly. I took out this loan, have already made more progress at such a lower interest rate, and am set to be debt free in less than two years! Sounds dumb, but this has truly helped me out.

EXCELLENT SSRVICE AND HIGHLY COMPETITIVE RATES

This is my second loan with Happy Money. They truly allow you to get back on track. Even after getting a low APR, they offer so many options to help you stay on track like; no late fees, delayed payments, changing your due date, forbearance with no compounding interest!
If I could get 2 loans at the same time I would. The added plus is their customer service. Coming from a Fotune 100 company, my standards for CS are pretty high. They are accessible, friendly, well-informed, and as a whole, CS dept evolves and modifies to meet the needs of their customers.

Referral Program Disappointment

My son clicked on my referral and applied and got approved. Neither one of us received a confirmation email. I called customer service for assistance since we didn’t receive notification regarding our referral rewards. Now they’re saying we don’t qualify because we didn’t receive an email but it’s like hello that’s why I called. So disappointing that they aren’t honoring it.
