I can never cash out when I get paid. It's always a few days later after 2 or 3 times contacting support about various issues. Mostly the bank not showing in was even paid. I've used 2 major banks of which neither has ever connected properly. And you can't contact support easily. Half the time you get ignored.

This app Is a sham a fraud all these bought comments and its such a money hog. I asked for 70 dollars cancel transaction and no one responded to my email. Dont use avoid at all cost
It won't update my bank balance and I got paid almost 2 weeks ago and it ain't let me cash out again and they already got their money back then they don't even write back to your tickets you submit to customer service I hate this app now

concept is consumer friendly, customer service has a ways to go. communication is next to impossible at times when situation is outside of normal activity. eventually (months later) things were resolved as satisfactory as they could be...which was close to unacceptable.

Apologies for the delay, Nichole! It is common for this to take 1-2 days while we wait for confirmation from your bank that everything went through successfully. We updated your account for you and you should be all set. Thanks for your patience while we were working on your ticket! I've added my pay stub 4 times and it says the same thing. I'm going to delete the app and find something else
It was really awesome but all the sudden I can't get no response it's never happened before not this long something is wrong
I tried multiple times to submit my time sheet doesn't work at all.

Hey Samantha, we want to help! Please send a message to support@activehours.com with your name and Activehours username in the message so that we can help you ASAP. This has been a great help to me for a while. I love using it.
I cashed out once. Couldn't believe it was real! Then, it wouldn't let me log in, so I had to download the app again. I get back in and can't cash out anymore, even though there is time logged and the support tickets don't get a response. If it worked as advertised, this would be a great concept, but it doesn't seem to. If the support team was responsive (Which I see is a consistent issue for a number of people), I am sure I would give it a better review. Updated: STILL no response. Tried emailing, putting in a Facebook message, AND a ticket on the app and it has gotten me nowhere. Down another star.
Used this app before and it was a great experience until I had to redownlaod the app and it wouldn't let me cash out because it's asking for latest bank deposit information. I submitted requested information a couple of days and to date still haven't been able to cash out. Reached out to customer service multiple times and still no response.

Gingerlei, we sent you a message and you should be all set to cash out. Thanks so much for your patience while we were working on your ticket. Pointless I did everything on my part (and for some reason it won't link my debit card that I've had for years) but the money I need won't be deposited till Wednesday my payday. The concept is great but what's the point if I need the money now and I gatta wait dayssssssss. That aspect needs revision asap. This is why people break down and do payday loans as they know they will get the money they need asap.. Had high hopes but very disappointed...

Apologies for the account trouble, Vanessa! You should be all set to cash out. If you cash out before 9:30 am PT on a weekday (excluding bank holidays), you'll receive your cash out the same day. Please reach out if you run into any issues. Updated 5/27/17 . I have issue a ticket to customer service to update my bsnk balance. Its been 3 days no one haven't responded. This shows lack of professionalism. This is a great system to get you out of a bind without taken out payday loan. Keep up the good work

Apologies for the delay on your ticket, Yolanda. We updated your info and you should be all set to cash out now. Feel free to reach out if you need help on anything else. (Warning) Please be careful when downloading this App!!!! They don't add earnings based on what you make an hour. They use your net pay after taxes to determine what you make an hour not your actual amount. They will change your max amount with little notice. You have a maximum amount you can get per pay period and not over $100 a day. They take forever to update your earnings and since I've had the app I'm always having to send in a timesheet to get it updated when it's supposed to update itself. I've had nothing but issues since I've downloaded.
After a few months of trying to get the app to work, it automatically sent money to my bank without my request. Today is pay day and it took it back out, this is obvious. However, they took out an extra $5.01 when there is SUPPOSEDLY no interest or fees. Bad experience for me. Now I'm trying to figure out how to close my account out
Lightning speed is what's up. Sometimes with smaller banks it has trouble linking account transactions but their support is all over it quickly. Great app, great concept. Getting stuck in a feedback loop of always needing the money from each check is concerning but with careful budgeting this isn't a big deal.
Use their Facebook page for support! Sending a support message through the app doesn't seem to do much good but on Facebook they responded within an hour and had the problem fixed in just a few minutes. Thank you so much for this service, it truly is helpful!
Honestly I was skeptical as heck. Sometimes I need that that advance a few days sooner or a safety cushion. I would say tip when you can especially when it's a large amount makes me feel better for needing the cash and saying thank you man
This is absolutely a awesome app great concept and very helpful It saved me lots of $$$ when I signed up I had fell down some stairs and missed work for 6 days was considering a payday loan but at 300% interest it was making me sick to my stomach thinking about paying that much thank you active hours for helping me when I needed it I have told everyone I know about this wonderful app. just wish I could get these bank connection issues resolved
I really just want my money and its been 4 days now. The cash out times section is extremely vague and i havent had any help with anything despite facebook and in app messages seeking help. Please respond!
bad support, does not respond in timely manners or fixes your issues . Still unavailable to cash out " due to bank not updating transactions". But they can read my balances correctly
After installing the app. I did everything else to get started. I have uploaded time sheet and still there are no results after 2 weeks of uploading my time sheet. Also the fact that the location function on your phone has to be on whenever you access the app is just plain wrong. The average phone user would activate that function and not realize to turn it back off when they are finished with the app. I suggest that the development team work on this function because after verifying the company address the usage or the need of the location for the app to work is just unnecessary and crazy. Also updating my time sheets and still no results and there are no explanation to why it didn't go through is truly frustrating. This app really needs some serious work and also I warn other fellow individuals to be very of this product.
This app sucks. It has been telling me to input everything over and over again. It keep saying thT my employer does not exist. I just want to unsubscribe and opt out of this. Deleting the app just want make it go away. I REALLY WANT TO UNSUBSCRIBE TO THIS APP!!!!
Alot of good buzz about the app, the interface is clean, and user friendly, but its been over a week , I got my checking account verified and sent in my time sheets and its stuck in verification... I got my direct deposit from work and still nothing, customer support does nothing...
Really was hoping this service would work based on some of the reviews, but after half a week of trying to connect to my bank and being ignored by support I'm thinking this may have been a scam. Seems like a great service if it actually works for you, but support seems non-existent which is really sketchy for a service that deals with your banking info. Really wish I wouldn't have entered my banking info into this app.
I used to use this app all the time and pay it forward, but ever since these new updates it's not allowing me to upload my time sheet...... after the new update everything is working perfectly thank you active hours!!!
It's a great app when you can use it. I've been having trouble cashing out and the customer support hasn't done anything about it it's been 3 days. They seem. To only answer once every few days.
Activehours Inc. May 28, 2017
We're sorry about the trouble cashing out, Jay. Can you message us in the app using the words "google play" in your ticket? We'll help you out ASAP. . it's asking questions I never had set up with my bank. I'm feeling like this is a scam. How do I unsubscribe completely from this? I don't wanna any of my info in there system any longer
Great app that allows you to pull money out of your paycheck early. Extremely useful for unexpected bills or emergencies such as your vehicle needing repairs. Takes a lot of self discipline though. You have to realize by getting money today you are making your next paycheck smaller. Great idea, and has saved me from overdrafting a time or two! Would definitely reccomend!
Hated it. After a week of waiting to verify and nothing when I've had my bank acct for over 5 years with DD. I'm over it. I will not recommend this app. Thank goodness it wasn't an emergency.
I really really broke 5 days be for my check and I had no gas to get to work or no money for lunch but I have to find a way to get to work to pay my bill I love this app because it takes money from your check that you work for an unlike a payday loan there no exter charge take what you need and pay the same back.. but I love this app it helps so much so every time I take money I do donate because I would love to see this app grow it's perfect
this app is awesome and fair.. Can't believe it worked the first time I used it.. I rarely need money before my check comes, but this is will def come in handy if anything comes up unexpected!!
I use to love this app, but this time around, whenever I submit a time sheet, they always tell me they'll get back to me when my hours are entered. . .then I never get confirmation back, so it's been useless for the last few months to me :( Hope it's fixed soon, cause when it works, it's a 5 star service!
This was my absolute favorite app and favorite company up until this weekend. At what time they had good customer service excellent and they also had phone customer service. They made a mistake they rectified it then an accident happened and they reversed it and changed my payroll day incorrectly now they're going to debit my account before I get paid before I get paid and I'm going to overdraft because of it I sent them emails they answered the first one that they corrected it but they did not the system shows they're going to debit my payroll before I get paid which is exactly the reason you have this app to prevent that.. I've been using this app at least a year and I've recommended it to many of my friends I always give a tip and now they won't even speak to me when their mistake is going to cost me to overdraft my account because they've scheduled to take my pay back money out before I even get paid
Activehours Inc. May 29, 2017
Hey Jill, we're truly sorry about the confusion here. Any time our debits post before payday, we always refund any overdraft charges that result from our transactions. Please send us a screenshot of any overdraft charges and we'll get a refund to you ASAP. ***UPDATE*** I've been using the app for a long time and all is well. No issues with payment or anything. Regular max raises and all. Thank you Activehours you help me so much. Didn't charge me a penny to borrow money but I gave them a small tip. I changed to 4 stars because of a problem that I'm not able to connect anymore. Update 3/30/2017 they've fixed this issue. I have been using Activehours for months and haven't gotten a max raise even after faithfully paying and referring 7 new active users. Update 3/31/2017 I have done everything they recommended to attempt to get a max raise and have received notification of a max raise one time but I think there is a glitch that is causing problems because all of my friends got max raises.
Activehours Inc. March 30, 2017
Hi Michael, first off thank you for referring your friends to our service. Customers may see their Max increase over time as you build transaction history with us. Some ways to see your Max increase are to continue supporting the app, pay cash outs back on time, and keep your bank balance positive. Great at first but it's been 4 days now that I've haven't been able to cash out. It just says it's waiting on my latest bank statement. Customer support has not been of any help. Would be great if someone actually responded back to me in the emails.
I really like this app but the customer service sucks it been 2 days now I haven't hear from anybody I done sent it lots of emails still no answer now it going on day 3 and still no help with my account is so frustrating somebody's please Helpppp please

Apologies for the delay, Takeisha! We see that you were able to cash out this weekend. Thanks for your patience while we were working on your ticket. Review deleted
What's New
In a world
where big banks have all the power,
there’s an app that believes
people should have control.
The only thing that stands in their way
is the pay cycle.
But what if people saw the truth?
The truth that they have the power.
The power to access their money as they earn it.
Now, with less clutter,
the Activehours app is fighting for fairness.
Because when people work together,
they can make their own rules.
This Spring,
Star in
THE ACTIVEHOURS APP
