As with many other reviews, a waste of time. It's been weeks since we applied and for a simple business loan they keep asking for this document and that document, and claiming this doesn't match and that doesn't match. My opinion, they are collecting data, not much interest in giving out a loan. We are working with another lender who has their stuff together. Also as a veteran, I think they purposely yank you around so they don't have to give the advertised interest rate. We have excellent credit and so does my business, zero reason for all of this.

I have waited over three months just to hear that I wouldn’t be supported with a loan. I had to call and to find out what the status was, for my loan, only to be ignored. All I did was waste a bunch of time, putting my documents together, only for them to not take seriously the situation that I was in. Fortunately, I am running my business without a loan, and looking for another solution at a Bank that is more promising. I do not recommend getting a loan from these people. They will waste your time.

Theyve removed my reviews from ****** twice now. Heres what I said. Much like all the other reviews. Communication is **** poor. They have you submit an application, pull a hard inquiry from your credit, provide all these photos of collateral, fail to respond to ******* ***** can never get in touch with your rep directly you have to call and wait for them to call back. You thennnn have to call again to even hear back after your application has made it to the underwriter only to be told that they're at capacity. How did you allow me to go through the entire application process, pull my credit, email to email, all for me to have to call and be told that you're at capacity so my loan was denied. When they KNEW they were at capacity before I even went through the process. Stay far far away. Additionally, I dont have concrete proof but can almost guarantee they sold my information, as the number of spam calls Ive received since concluding this process is INSANE.

I called this company because the largest bank of usa told me it was one of their costumers as SBA lender. We checked they have a program for working visa as long as people is legal in USA. I spoke on the phone before applying to make sure their advertising was real and a lady confirmed me there were no issues to not be a resident. First thing a hard inquiry a lady called Tasha confirmed me that I was able to apply with my visa, that her assistant Laura will help me with the documents.After have to fill several times the forms, pay an accountant fill over forms for three days. I was contacted and told " you do not qualify for any loan since you are not a USA resident( I have investment of over 100.000$ and a company producing for over a year)", the same people that confirmed me that I qualify, after all the expenses and time, told me I cannot since Im not a USA resident, that I will need a document that is valid over a year; so I told her, I am under asylum and TPS protection program that was extended for 18 months. But she did not care at all since time of visa less than a year was the issue. She dispose my application that took hours, money and a hard inquiry. She told me no worries we won't approve you but there is another department from same company that with another rate and return term will help you with the loan without a hard inquiry.Next Francisco, called at the end of the day. Started to ask me who told me that I could apply having a working visa(they have it advertised). Then he told me "After exhaustive research I can give you 20.000$"(I applied for more than ten times that amount) but he ll give the highest rate, plus comissions plus a lot of things making it sound that It will be very expensive, making a lot efforts to make me hang up. He told me "you need to tell me now if It is worth it to talk to the underwritting"(like all the time and money they made me waste it's less important than their time and my app in their desk). I asked several times to different people from the company, I was said I was good. Then after the whole proccess they say I do not qualify for what I asked several times before applying.

Like so many others they claim they will help start up, this is not true. Less you already have working capital they will not even give you a second look. I would say please never advertise as a start up help. My loan amt. was a small ask of only $8,500 the rest has been coming out of my own pocket. I am finding if you are trying to start your biz on your own, everything is being slamed in your face.

It was fairly easy to get a loan and overall pleasant experience until I found out that this loan was on my personal credit report and this factt affected my home purchase greatly. I decided to pay it off, which I did online, because I could not reach anybody on the phone. I was not able to stop autodraft, nobody ever gets back to me and I continue being charged monthly fee on 0 balance loan. Making a last attempt to drive to the nearest physical location. Its like a scam, you call them and cannot get pass by receptionists or they just hang up on you. If you have a choice, do not go with this company

this company should have been our first stop before searching for a home. the team are well experience and has strategies, for getting the best rate on a mortgage loan. I liked the fact that they deeply understood the urgency in the purchasing process and had invaluable knowledge within the industry.They reminded me of the kind of person who is in your corner of the ring when you really need it. I felt the advice shared was a blessing.Yes,the rates are hands down the best. But I liked how i was being told the good and bad news straight. Responsiveness was excellent and got back to me quickly throughout our communications with them.I highly recommend!

Liftfund has assisted my small business with 2 loans. They are always available, very quick in processing your application and very quick to respond to your questions. If you are a small business in the Bexar County area who is in need of a SBA loan, I highly recommend calling Liftfund!!!

Liliane Spenle from Liftfund was Godsent for our small business! She helped us through the entire process of getting all the documents submitted in a timely manner and more importantly, getting us funding to keep our business aflot! Thank you Liliane! On the other hand, the one person that was of NO HELP was Virginia at the local San Antonio office, Virginia took my name/number and business info 4 times and said she would get back to me, however, she NEVER came back with any answers. I am just really thankful to Liliane though, without her help, I am not sure what we would have done.

Not a good experience. Slow to get back with us regarding very important questions we had regarding the interest rate on the loan and collateral required. The whole process was like they were giving us a handout in spite of the fact that we have excellent credit and great collateral. 13.5 interest rate vs 3.5% from our bank for a line of credit is much better than they could offer. I thought they were supposed to help small business women instead of adding more debt to their businesses. They could have been more friendly and forthcoming regarding the requirements they have and what their program is all about. I would not recommend this program to anyone trying to grow their business.

Terrible customer service with inconsistent messages depending on the reps you speak with. There was also no mention of this being a secured loan through out the application process. Took 4 days to finally reach some one who looked my application over. Would have been better off going with One Main financial.Small business owners I would suggest you look elsewhere like PayPal credit, Square Credit, even Kabbage. This whole process has been an utter joke.
