Worst loan you can ever get. STAY AWAY by all means. I took out a loan with them and wasnt explained the fine print of the loan. My starting balance was $6348 on May 2023. I paid every month on the payment structure they set assuming I would eventually get this loan paid off. It is now April of 2025 and my remaining balance is $6254 dollars. So two years of making payments and all I have paid towards the loan was $94 dollars. YES, thats correct $94 dollars. After further research, they charged me $2.07 a day in interest. So basically the plan they design, you will never pay off the loan unless you double your payment and even then you will essentially pay times what you borrowed. This is a crooked company and I will do everything to make sure no one takes a loan out with them. SCAM artist.Time Investment Company, Inc.

We are sorry to hear that you are not satisfied with your loan terms. Customer satisfaction is very important to us and we are happy to work with you directly to address your concerns. Our Senior Servicing manager has confirmed she has made initial contact with you and will work with to address and resolve your concerns. Please understand that Time Investment Company (TIC) is an indirect lender that provides financing options to Home Improvement dealers so that homeowners like yourself can receive home improvement products at an affordable monthly payment level. The dealer chooses the loan terms based on their conversation with you. This usually includes a low and affordable monthly minimum payment which is why We always encourage you to pay more when you can. In addition when payments are made late you incur late fees and more of your payment will go towards accrued interest resulting in the principal balance going down slower. We would like the opportunity to review the specifics of your account with you and discuss ways that we can help to address and resolve your concerns. Please lock in a time with the Senior manager that has been in contact with you to discuss your account so we can work together to resolve your concerns.Review fromRainey M

We are an indirect lender that offers financing options that allow Home Improvement dealers to offer their customers (homeowners) an affordable monthly payment for their products and services. If only the minimum monthly payment is made, the time it takes to pay off the loan will be longer but affordable for those who need a lower monthly payment. *** encourages consumers to pay more than their minimum monthly payment to shorten the time and interest paid during the life of the loan. We are an honest and reputable business and our Consumer Advocate will continue his talks with you in an attempt to address your concerns. We hope that our continued efforts will result in a resolution.Review fromFrancys R

I'd give it a zero star rating if I could. Avoid this company at all costs. I signed up for what should have been a 3yr load, only to note that although I have this account on auto-pay the amount owed never decreases. The *** who came by to sell the filter was very nice, but the finance company is very misleading. The interest rate is ridiculous. It'll take 20years to pay this off at this rate.Time Investment Company, Inc.

We appreciate your feedback and are sorry that you are not happy with the financing terms that you received from the dealer. Time Investment Company is an indirect lender who takes assignment of contracts from dealers. The terms of the financing are determined and agreed upon by you the consumer and the seller (dealer) at the time of sale. The dealer then has the option of assigning the contract to a sales finance company such as Time Investment Company. The contract you signed was a revolving agreement with simple interest. The minimum payments are low so that homeowners can choose to pay an affordable monthly payment for home improvement products. We encourage consumers to pay more than the minimum payment amount if they can to reduce the amount of time it takes to pay off their contract. This is why we include information on your monthly statement comparing how long it will take to pay off your contract at the minimum monthly payment compared to paying a larger amount. Please refer to the revolving loan agreement you signed for more information. Weve sent you a copy of your loan documents, per your request. Please feel free to contact us once you receive this, otherwise a manager will be reaching out to you to answer any additional questions you may have. We pride ourselves on customer satisfaction and are here to support you in any way we can.Review fromKimberley S

Signed up for a loan for water filtration system financed through this company. When something is financed with a loan, the interest is already added in, and I should have had it paid off within 3-5 years. Come to find out, this company was very misleading, practically fraudulent by adding daily interest making a 3 year loan turn into a 13 year loan! That is not what I signed up for! They act like a credit card, not financing! DO NOT FINANCE THROUGH THIS COMPANY!Time Investment Company, Inc.

Thank you for your feedback. Customer satisfaction is very important to us. Your contract is a simple interest revolving contract that accrues interest daily. There are no prepayment penalties, and we highly encourage you to pay more than the minimum monthly payment, to shorten your loan term and reduce the interest you pay on the total loan. You can also read the revolving loan agreement you signed for more information. If you would like to receive a copy of your loan documents for review, we would be happy to mail them to you. A manager will be reaching out to you to answer any additional questions.Review fromDebbie P

4 starsThank you so much Ms. ***** for helping me navigate and set up auto-pay. You completely removed my frustrations with your friendly and professional guidance. Ive read all the reviews, and although possibly damaging, I feel the complaints are of a nature from people whom are inexperienced with the way lending works, as well as second and third party roles and responsibilities. Although the interest rate is an unexpected high, considering my credit score, I am thus far still satisfied with Time Investment services. Again, thank you, ****.Review fromWENDELL P

I cannot put 0 stars, otherwise I would!! This company is the worst finance company I have ever attempted to work with. I began with the attempt to set up a monthly payment, which their systems would not allow. Then when that didn't work I called in to pay the amount off and they would only take a portion of it and directed me to pay the rest with alternate payment method. Absolutely ridicules. Tried to work with "Nathan ***** and his supervisor Pam ******** who were absolutely worthless in helping me get this taken care of. NEVER NEVER NEVER use this company. I am now going to go to the company that uses this service to let them know how bad this is so they don't put other people into this situation again!!Time Investment Company, Inc.

We are sorry to hear that we failed to provide you with the level of satisfaction that we strive for. Please understand that credit card issues (**********, ***** etc) have strict rules around paying debt with their credit cards. Most loan companies do not allow you to use a a credit card to make your monthly payment or to payoff your balance, rather you would need to use a balance transfer check issued by your credit card company. Likewise, credit card companies do not allow you to make your credit card payment with another credit card but will accept a balance transfer check. Time Investment Company has been able to negotiate terms and allow credit card payments towards loan balances within certain limits. You were unable to setup monthly payments because you tried to use a credit card to do so. We accept several forms of payment including ACH, debit card, Apple Pay, ******, Venmo, Cash app, etc, however you cannot use a credit card to make your monthly payment. You can use a debit card or any other method previously mentioned. As a service to our customers, our agents are permitted to take one time credit card payments up to a limit which ****** offered to do for you. We are sorry that you do not agree with these policies. After a review of the call recordings we have determined that ****** and *** provided you with accurate information in a professional manner and that your primary dissatisfaction was caused because they could not accept a credit card to pay off your loan balance. We would encourage you to reach out to your credit card company and request a balance transfer if you would like to use your credit card to pay off your loan balance. Customer satisfaction is extremely important to us, however we cannot increase the limits we have in place.Oman M

**** saved the day!! I have commented previously that the employees that I worked with previously were completely worthless. On this I want to talk about the ***** difference with ****, the customer service agent I had the privilege of working with. She went above and beyond to find a solution to the problem and we were able to resolve it completely. I personally will never do business with this company again (which is why I am not giving it more stars) but I will say that they do have a star with **** ******!Review fromclifford c

Avoid this company at all cost. They play innocent, while partening with other companies with a known track record of exploiting consumers. My mother is a 77 years old dementia patient. I am her son and primary caregiver, who has a power of attorney to handle her affairs. On or around May of 2024 she was contacted by core home security offering her a new alarm system. Whatever information they requested from her, she supplied it, without knowing what she was agreeing to. I was made aware of this while away from the house and someone came to install an alarm system. Upon arrival, I thought it was from the existing alarm company, due to the fact that our existing system has been in place for over 3 years. A few weeks later I noticed an additional charge for security monitoring, of which I began my inquiry. It was then I learned that core home security installed a new system and my Mom was now being billed from both companies. I contacted core to make them aware of my mother's condition and her inability to comprehend what they offered her. I send a copy of the power of attorney, and ask that they cancel the service and remove the equipment. Core security was unresponsive, and directed me to the financing company Time Investment. The system is still in place and both companies are insisting that i pay this bill. Not only is this frustrating, it's disheartening to know that this is how the elderly are targeted. I had to put a spam blocker on my mom's phone because she gets more than 12 calls per day offering similar service. I strongly believe this is an intentional action from Core Home Security and their financing company Time Investment. Please avoid them both.Time Investment Company, Inc.

Time Investment Company provides financing options to approved home improvement dealers so homeowners can enjoy those products and services affordably. The sales and installation are done in person and in the consumer's home by the dealer. Time Investment is not present at the time of sale or installation. We do speak with the consumer to verify the financing details and that they are satisfied with the installation and product before funding the dealer. Time Investment Company does not discriminate or deny credit based on a consumer's age. If during the verification process we identify any issues or concerns, we will not fund the dealer until those issues and concerns are resolved. Customer satisfaction and consumer protection are very important to us so our Director of Servicing will be reaching out to you directly. It is our hope that we can work together to address and resolve your concerns.Time Investment Company, Inc.

Beware of Time Investment and their illegal practice. They are professional scammers. They will send you 3 bills all of which are continually sent after the due date so you accrue a late fee. I have had over a dozen phone calls with this company. AVOID AT ALL COST. They tell you to set up automatic payments DO NOT. Their website does not work and they will take out multiple times a month for multiple different amounts. We have calculated how much we have paid them (interest excluded) and it is nowhere near what they show. Scammers !!! They should be shut down immediately. I will be contacting the police to file a report as well.Time Investment Company, Inc.

Customer satisfaction is very important to us and we are sorry to hear that you are experiencing issues with receiving your mailed statements. We do mail statements 20 days prior to your due date, if they are not arriving until after your due date you should check with the postal service to determine why they are being delayed. We also offer electronic statements as an option which are also sent 20 days prior to the due date. If a payment is not made on time we will send reminder letters. If you see different amounts that would be a result of late fees or returned payment fees for insufficient funds. Late fees are only assessed after a 10 day grace ******* Your are not currently setup on automatic payments and have not been since 2022. There is no record of multiple charges in the same month when you were on automatic payments. We are committed to working with you to address and resolve your concerns. One of our servicing managers will reach out to you soon so we can determine the what we can do to provide better service to you.
