To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience.

Always offering options

I appreciate Blake always being direct and responsive my needs while providing options that allow me to pick what best suits my business. And in many cases providing options that I may not have been aware of. I also really appreciate Blake 's follow through and calling to check up on my office and see if we need anything, how things are going and helping to prepare for what may be coming!

Intrusive telemarketing practices

Intrusive telemarketing practices (from a long distance number!) leaving messages falsely claiming I used their services before but I never heard of them. When I called back and asked them to stop their calls the guy said "well fu@k you."

Hi, I reached out a few times with no response back but you were called once because there is a UCC filed with your name and phone number (meaning there is some type of active lending in place) we tried to inform you in that one conversation numerous times on how to get the ucc terminated so NOBODY else would call you and instead you returned threats and horrible language which in return the rep hung up which any human has the right to do when being mistreated for no reason.

You can call me directly with any concerns my name is Kathleen 860-952-3709.

Thank you

Simple and Quick

Stacey and Blake made the process simple and quick. They both took the time to explain the terms in detail and provided several funding options. The total process only took a couple of days.
