For the past week, these jokers have overdrawn my account to take repayments 5 days and then 2 weeks early, which completely screwed up the way I was able to use the app. customer service is hit and miss whether they're being honest with you or not regarding the issues you bring up with them. Absolutely do not use this app unless you dont care about keeping your bank account in good standing.

Review: Great concept with really weak implementation. Somehow the app is restricted to bankers' hours. If you are trying to beat a "check" or other debit and the bank fees associated with them, you cannot rely on Earnin. The non-interest (tip) is lower than that of brick-and-mortar payday advance joints, but you can get cash same day, weekends and after regular business hours ... when you need it, not when it is convenient for them. Soon as there is a competitive app, I'll pounce on it. When my still pending request with this app is over, I'm deleting it from my phone.

Thanks for the feedback, Cliff. If you have Lightning Speed enabled, you can receive your money within minutes even on weekends and holidays. Otherwise, your cash out will be processed at standard speed (1 business day). We can help get your money faster. Please send an email to reviews@earnin.com so we can improve your experience.

I used to love Earnin but it has been the worst lately. Always having login issues. They are constantly dropping my limit while I have over $1000 in my account. Never paid them late, never had issues on my end but my max constantly drops. Down from $500 to $350. They def do not reward good payments or bank status. It's getting old quick! When I questioned it, they say we cant do anything about it. The computer does it without our imput. Ya ok!
