* **** ****** ********* ******* ** *** ******* ******** **** ******* ****** *** ******* loan terms on borrowers, including high-interest rates, high fees, and terms that strip the borrower of equity. ********* lenders often use aggressive sales tactics and ********* to get borrowers to take out loans they can't afford. This is Go Easy or Easy Financial I had to go to a Consumer Proposal because the interest rate was insane & I ended up being 3 months behind in rent. I have nothing left to give. These staff ****** me via email & several phone numbers even while in Consumer Proposal. I’m now seeking stress leave from work because of their ***** ********** & ******** tactics. They care less about people & more about grabbing money. I fell for their **** tactics of a huge loan & now I’m financially a mess a few years out of retirement. **** **** **** ******** ***** ******* **** * **** *** ***** ******** ****** ********** ************* **** ****** ** **** **** **** *** * ******** **** *** ***** *** ** ****** ****** ** *** ******* ** *****goeasy Ltd Response

Thank you for your feedback. We are so sorry to hear that you did not have a great experience with our services.
Easyfinancial understand your concerns regarding the interest rate and terms. Our interest rates for unsecured loans range from 29.99% to 46.96%, and the rate is determined by multiple factors such as credit history, income, etc. We want to ensure that we are transparent with our customers, and to show that, we have all the terms of the loan on the first page of the agreement. Our staff is trained to breakdown the process of loan approval, and with the customer's consent, we proceed further.
When an account becomes past due, easyfinancial would attempt to contact the customer to make arrangements to the account to help bring the account to a good standing.
Easyfinancial apologizes for any distress this may have caused.Customer Response

I reiterate - I acknowledged that I was in a Consumer Proposal and was contacted via email, phone & text to pay up. I had requested help prior to this from your staff & received a brief email to pay more then interests would go down. No suggestions - just told y pay more. I also had to dig to get a loan breakdown since nothing is ever sent out n a monthly basis as other loans are done. That was painful! And I received a silly kindergarten email showing the breakdown. ********* ** *** ******** ********** ** *** **** **** *** * ******* ** *** ********** *** ** ********* ****** ******* **** *** ****** *** **** * ********* ****** ********* ** ******* ********* * ********* ****** ******* ** * *** ** ******* **** ****** ******** * *** ******** **** **** ***** ******* **** ** ****** ******. Plus I never received receipts. The only time was when I had to beg for a breakdown. Lastly, ****** ********* supposedly is not affiliated, yet I was transferred to them. I gave paid a huge amount for getting $750 back & after realized I was duped. When you’re tired & down , it’s easier t be duped & used. Now that I’m in a consumer proposal, I’ve lost whatever I poured my hard earned money into that place. So - no - I disagree with this response completely. Lousy customer service.Review from Heather R

Daina L from customer service was of great help to me on July 22, 2024. I got a loan from Easyfinancial that was suppose to be in my bank account on Saturday July 20, 2024 This did not happen because of a mistake in recording my phone number. I spoke to the representative at the branch who assisted me to let him know I had not received the funds. He told me because of the mistake it would take 24 hours to receive the funds. I called head office and spoke to Daina who assisted in getting the funds into my account immediately. Thanks for your help Daina you are a life saver.goeasy Ltd Response

I cannot express enough gratitude towards Daina L. for the exceptional service she provided during a challenging financial period in my life. Initially, my request received a standard company reply, but Daina didn't let that be the final word. Instead, she took the initiative to personally reach out and reassess my situation. As a representative of her lending institution, her expertise was pivotal, but it was her genuine concern and dedication that truly made a difference. Daina is more than just a professional; she’s a truly special individual who goes above and beyond. She responded to my every call and followed up diligently, ensuring I felt supported and informed every step of the way. Daina’s extraordinary efforts have not only helped stabilize my finances but also restored my faith in the power of compassionate assistance. I wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone navigating financial difficulties and I really hope she gets a promotion—she’s not only a top-notch professional but she really shows she cares about people. Thanks to Daina, not only are my finances back on track, but I've also seen firsthand how powerful kindness and help can be!goeasy Ltd Response

*** ****** ******* I had to shut down my business and I had made arrangements to have freezer I was leasing from then to be picked up on June 29th and I would settle my account on Wednesday June 26, 2024. As far as I knew there were no problems and I was just waiting on the settlement amount, which I hadn't received yet. Then today the truck shows up to pick up the freezer. I let them know that they were supposed to come next Saturday. I thought this was the end of it. Nope. This here by the name of Charles calls me and tells me if I don't let them in to take the freezer he was going to have his men pound on my door until I did let them in. Then he decided that he was going to have the police come over to. I explained to him that I had made arrangements for it to be picked up next Saturday and that I had also arranged to settle my final account on Wednesday. He said that he was making all arrangements null and void. He asked me how embarrassed and ********** would I be with police as well as a bailiff here to force me to do what he wanted. He ended up making me cry I was so upset. *** * ****** *** **** **** *** ********** ******** ***** ** *** * *** **** ****** ** **** ******* *** ** ****** **** **** ********** ***** ** *** I was returning the freezer.

easyhome would like to apologize if the customer had a negative experience with an easyhome branch. easyhome understands that the customer went through a frustrating experience with the branch manger, Charles. However, the branch manager proceeded with collections according to the easyhome policy. When a customer defaults on their first payment, the lease agreement is terminated and easyhome can make the decision to repossess the item at any time. easyhome gave the customer a 2-week grace period to pay or return the item because the customer lived an hour away from the branch. easyhome did not have a set arrangement with the customer due to their history, hence why the item was repossessed before their expected arrangement date. easyfinancial understands if the interactions with Charles may have been unexpected and negative, but their intentions were to reclaim the item according to their process. easyhome apologizes for the less than ideal customer experience and if the customer has any other concerns, easyhome customer service team can be reached at ###-###-####, Mon-Fri: 8 am to 8 pm and Sat-Sun: 10 am to 6:30 pm EST.Customer Response

At no point was I told I was bring put into collections! I had made arrangements for the return of the freezer as well as final payment in full. Charles decided that these arrangements were not good enough and proceeded to do a repossession that was totally out of line. * ** * ****** ***** *** ***** ***** *** ** ***** ** ** * ***** *** ********** ***Review from James T

I was thrilled to get a loan for $10,000 but something didn't seem quite right. The girl on the phone rushed me through the contract. After hanging up the phone I was actually able to read it without her yapping in my ear. It says I had to pay back 45000 in total???? So I decided then I needed to cancel the loan. I called and the lady on the other end just said to send back the money as soon as it arrives in my account. And everything would be good. So I did. Now they have started to take payments out. Even after I've cancelled and sent back the money.. I called. They want a screenshot of my bank account number, balance and payment all in the same picture. I couldn't get that, I called my bank they were unable to provide me with this. This "company" does not care about the customer. This company has made me never want to take out a loan again. Now I have to wait 10 days and MAYBE they will refund my money that I need tomorrow. ***** ***** ***** ***** ***** **** ***** They only do what's in their best interest. You want YOUR money back?

I want to say that I am forever grateful that with easy financial I was able to rebuild my credit. The customer service agent at the Moncton New Brunswick branch on Main Street was outstanding. I originally got the loan at the London Ontario location on Adelaide St and the customer service was *********. I highly recommend the company but not that branch. They hid fees from me, told Me I could not make payments at other stores only that one, IF they answer the phone they sound like they hate their job and don't care. I know that location doesn't represent the company as a whole which is why the Moncton location saved my experience. I have rebuilt my credit and can move forward in life with less stress and the feeling of achieving goals. I could not have done that without this loan. I was in great need when I purchased the loan and I can't thank Easy Financial enough for giving me the opportunity to better my future.I did have to differ the odd payment as life happens but i recommended this to anyone who was in my situation as long as you are responsible enough to budget and make your payments. The customer service representative in Moncton should be given a medal or statue...her name is Nandita. This has really helped my life for the better. Your mission statement is to help and rebuild credit and that is what happened with work and understanding on both ends. Thank you one last time for bring there when I needed it and helping me rebuild credit which will essentially help rebuild my life and create the future I am determined to achieve.goeasy Ltd Response

easyfinancial would like to acknowledge the customers concerns regarding the interest rate and would like to apologize if they were not addressed accordingly. According to our records, our staff worked with the customer and were able to reduce the interest rate from 39.99% to 37.99% and refinanced the loan to reduce the bi-weekly payments from $241.53 to $173.47. Our interest rates for unsecured loans range from 29.99% to 46.96%, and the rate is determined by multiple factors such as credit history, income, etc. The interest rate is not strictly based off the elapsed term with our customers. However, our personal loans are open and can be paid out at any time. If extra payments are made, this can help reduce the accumulated interest, which in turn shortens the term. Therefore, the loan does not need to be kept until the end of the maturity date. If customer wishes to further discuss this matter, it is recommended the customer call our customer service team at ###-###-#### between Monday to Fridays 8am to 630pm ESTReview from Kenic W.

I am joint applicant on a loan since July of 2021. The loan was originally for $7,720. After almost 3 years, they are saying that the loan is still at $7,013. Every time I call to get information, they give me another balance that is owed. I honestly think they are tacking on more money that is owed. I will be contacting a lawyer regarding this ** *** ***** ****** *** ** ** *****goeasy Ltd Response

easyfinancial would like to acknowledge customers concerns regarding the loan balance and apologize if they were not addressed accordingly. Upon review, customer had 7 deferrals and 14 missed payments, which lead to a backlog of accumulated interest. As outlined in the loan agreement, each payment is allocated to any outstanding interest and fees first, then remaining gets applied towards principal. The customer was advised this breakdown of the loan payments and the impacts of multiple deferrals by easyfinancials' customer service representatives. They were also provided a summary of their transactions to clarify any misunderstanding they had about the loan payments. Alternately, if customers skip their payments, they can make extra payments to reduce the impact of the accumulated interest. This explanation was discussed with the customer on multiple occasions but if they require more clarification, it is recommended that the customer contact the easyfinancial customer service team at ###-###-#### between Monday to Friday from 8 am to 6:30 pm EST.Review from Abena O
