I had two loans with Lendmark, and taking them out was a terrible decision. At first, they are very…read morefriendly and make it seem like the loan is there to help you and improve your situation. What they don't clearly explain, however, are the extremely high interest rates and the way payments are applied. For example, if you have a five-year loan and decide to pay an extra $5,000, that payment does not go directly toward the principal. Instead, it is applied to future monthly payments. This is because they charge interest daily on the loan balance, meaning you continue to accrue interest every day--even if you have already paid that month's payment. Their interest rates are extremely high, and the overall cost ends up being excessive. I'm relieved that I was able to pay off my loans, but the amount I paid in interest was unreasonable. I would strongly recommend avoiding doing business with this company.

Huge credit to the lending department for funding my auto loan in just two days. I had recently applied with several other credit unions, and some are still reviewing my documents more than a week later. In contrast, SF Credit Union provided clear communication, regular updates, and a streamlined process from start to finish. Not only did they offer one of the most competitive rates I found during my research, but they also didn't require unnecessary conditions such as direct deposit commitments or other hoops to jump through. If you're in the market for an auto loan--especially if you're purchasing a Rivian--I highly recommend giving SF Credit Union a look. Their customer service, transparency, and efficiency made the entire experience exceptionally smooth.

Western Union is a fraudulent and incompetent company, and I deeply regret using their service for…read morethe first time. Yesterday, I urgently needed to send $1,469.00 CAD to my brother in Ottawa, Canada. I chose the "cash pickup in minutes" option using my debit card -- which cost more because it promised instant delivery. That's the only reason I used it: urgency. But more than 36 hours later, my brother has still not received the money. He visited over five Western Union locations in Ottawa, and none of them had the funds available. We are not talking about a remote village -- this is the capital city of Canada, and the amount is not even large. This is outrageous. I called Western Union's so-called "customer service," and spoke to two incompetent reps who could barely communicate and gave confusing, scripted responses. After demanding a supervisor and being on hold for 30 minutes, someone else came on -- barely more helpful -- and told me that no location in Ottawa has enough cash to complete the transfer. His "solution"? He said they would split the transfer into multiple MTCNs and that my brother would have to go around Ontario to pick up money in pieces. What kind of scam is this? This is false advertising, misleading, and outrageously irresponsible. They charge for "cash in minutes" but deliver nothing, waste my time, and put my family in distress. I then requested a refund, and the agent said it was "processed," yet I received no email confirmation, no receipt, and no guarantee. When I asked about it, he just repeated: "You're supposed to receive the email," and claimed the refund will take 5-7 business days. I have zero trust in Western Union at this point. This is a scam business model -- they take people's money and then fail to deliver it, leaving the sender and receiver helpless. Accountability for this blatant misrepresentation of services. Western Union should be investigated and penalized for these fraudulent practices. They should not be allowed to operate like this, especially when people rely on them in urgent situations.
