FloatMe: Instant Cash Advances 4+

Not there when you need it most

There are times when my main accounts get SO low (we’re in the middle of a pandemic) that and extra $20 offered by FM would make all the difference in the world. It could feed us and allow us a couple of dollars of gas. In my circumstance,only reason for accessing apps such as float Me is to get that receive and that $20 last a couple of days until my scheduled payday. With the restrictions shown on the app with regard to bank balances, that check to see if you have money in your account or not, will automatically deny your request for a $20 float. The irony is that if I HAD money in my bank account, the necessity to use Float Me wouldn’t exist. As a frequent user, Float Me needs to update their rules in order to help those of us who do not currently have money in their account for a couple of days until payday. We are struggling out here and that $20 could and does keep us from struggling or literally being hungry. My opinion? A bank balance containing cash makes using Float Me rather redundant. This rule should be rethought. This app is useless if a zero balance is the determining factor Thanks for taking the time to read my opinion.

Hi Daphne, thank you so much for your valuable feedback! We've lowered the required bank balance to -$20 to request a Float. If you have any more feedback or concerns, we'd love to hear it at floatme.zendesk.com; we're always looking for ways to improve :)

DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS APP

I’m never the type to leave reviews but for this I must warn those who are in need of money and will get taken advantage of by this scam.

I have been getting charged every month since June 2021 of $1.99 of a membership I was never aware of. I NEVER qualified to get any Float Me Cash but they proceeded to charge me of a membership that never even helped me? I provided a picture and proof to their customer support that I NEVER received any funds from Float Me but still got charged anyways. The customer support tells me that $1.99 charge is to help alert members of “low balance” but majority of bank apps have HAD this feature for FREE for many years? There was absolutely no benefits for me whether I had this “membership” or not but yet they can’t refund the charges for these past months.

I ended the membership today and was only ever aware of being subscribed to a “membership” until today when it suddenly showed up in my bank statement that there’s a hold for a $1.99 charge. However if I had known this earlier on, I would’ve ended this membership sooner. They have little to no care for their members and just shows how much money hungry Float Money is. Float Money is a tool for people who need money but they will still charge those who doesn’t use it, those that doesn’t qualify for it AND those who have already have nothing left. Crazy.
