This has been my favorite and most reliable option for so long, and has helped me several times. But now when I need it, it takes away the amount it used to lend me when nothing has changed with my paychecks and cut it abruptly, not even allowing me time to adjust to a lower amount. Just cut me cold turkey style. In an emergency situation, when I had less money and needed it more, it offered me less. I guess this is a way of forcing me to adjust and not rely on these things for much anymore.

Very inconsistent app. Flips between giving cash out approvals or not. 1st, the issue was my bank not being supported, then it was my balance being under $200, then problems verifying my card. I've been at my job nearly 6 months and I just got approved for a cash out. I tried it out and now it won't take the repayment. I tried to do it with my saved card and it just says "thanks" refreshes the screen and does noting. Tried to add the card manually and got an error😐. Seems sketchy

Last update is terrible. I used to be able to see everyones team availability as I created a schedule clicking through each member to add on whatever day. Made it easy to keep track of everyone's time. Now all I get is name options only to pick from and if there is a availability dispute the app just says "this person has an availability conflict with the shift youre adding" fails to mention employee time frames or unavailable days like before. desktop site on browser force to app too now. 👎
