    A Newbie Budgeter's bestie

    Date: Oct 27 2023
    Summary

    Deferit has helped save me from my fancy free budgeting ways. I would remain in the budgeting swamp muck trying to find ways to make it work without them. The credit reporting is also making my credit heck into credit heaven.

    Positive

    Deferit helps me budget my bills. I can utilize all my monthly pay to budget, with their assistance. I can make sure my bills are paid on time and within the budget I am finally in the groove with.

    Negative

    There is not really anything I do not like. I am a fan.

    Highly Recommended

    Date: Oct 27 2023
    Summary

    Overall, this was very helpful and I will continue to use this in the future! I also told a few family and friends about this!

    Positive

    What I love most about Deferit is that it has really helped me during hard times! I had no way at all to pay my light bill which was already past due! I googled and this service popped up! All I had to pay was one of my payments that was broken into 4 and I was stress free. It’s hard when you have to choose between food or lights because both is needed! I was able to go ahead and fully pay my other bills as well as get my groceries! I’m so thankful!

    Negative

    The monthly fee is a bit of a hassle sometimes, especially since I live paycheck to paycheck, but I get it and understand you have to pay a monthly fee in order to use the service.

    A lifesaver

    Date: Oct 28 2023
    Summary

    Excellent experience with customer service and the platform as a whole. I have had a very positive experience.

    Positive

    Deferit is actually an excellent budgeting tool. It is mainly to be used for paying one’s essential bills, and they make sure that you are able to handle those bills responsibly before increasing your limit. In this way, they definitely aren’t encouraging Willy-nilly spending and making you think about what you can afford and what you need to pay. Also, they report to credit bureau and can negotiate bills. Win-win. If you do need time to pay an installment, you can always ask or push back a date.

    Negative

    I wish there was a way to get more bills paid without having to send out a check—or a faster alternative. Some bills can be paid online, while others cannot.

    I love Deferit

    Date: Dec 19 2023
    Summary

    Absolutely love Deferit! This has kept me out of getting lots of my bills from falling to much behind and or getting services shut off. Would recommend for anyone who is in dyer need of assistance with payments if you don’t have the amount in full right away.

    Positive

    Allows you to make installment payments when you don’t have all the funds right away. So with that I absolutely love this service.

    Negative

    Customer service getting back to late, need someone who can help within moments and not days later.

    Date: Oct 27 2023
    Summary

    This is the best experience in bill paying I've experienced in my life!! Thank you deferit! I greatly appreciate your services!

    Positive

    What can I say, where do I begin with Deferit. Using this tool to break up bill payments in increments of 4, with it still working towards my credit has been nothing short of amazing. A true game changer to us individuals that my may not have all the bill money at once for larger bills. Deferit has saved this household from lights and water being cut off more than once due to economic struggles. Please, anyone that may struggle with bill payments, in any form or fashion, use deferit! This is the best tool for any family with major house hold bills! Thank you Deferit, Sincerely, A Bill-ion Things to Pay 4!

    Sometimes it can take a while before the bill can be paid if you are requesting to get it paid same day.

    Saves the Day!

    Date: Oct 27 2023
    Summary

    Overall-this has been a life saver for me! The bills that I use this for monthly are ALWAYS paid on time now and I don't have to scramble to figure out how I am going to get them all paid on time because Deferit does it for me. Also I notice every now and then that my amount I can use increases which is great to allows me to use it for more of my monthly bills. LOVE LOVE LOVE this service and I have recommended to everyone I know.

    Positive

    I love that I can make sure all my bills are paid on time even though I cant make the full payment when it is due. Has really helped my budgeting process and has helped me stay on track. Also love that I can change the payment date as often as needed in case something comes up and I don't have the money on that date.

    Negative

    The access to customer service is a little vague- luckily I haven't really needed it much, but it would be nice to be able to reach an actual person when I do have the need.

    Literal life saver

    Date: Oct 27 2023
    Summary

    I really love Deferit and tell anyone about it who will listen. Discovering this service has literally been a lifesaver for my family and I when I don’t have enough in one shot to pay a bill. Splitting up the payments is so manageable and takes a lot of stress off of me about how I am going to manage to pay my bills. The process is so quick and easy to understand and reliable. I have not had any issue whatsoever using deferit. The setup is quick and easy without any hassles. I am definitely grateful the service exists and honestly don’t know what I would do without it especially in these hard economic times. The only thing I obviously didn’t like which most people probably don’t is the raising of the subscription fee but honestly I will take it if it means being able to split up a large bill. Thank you for offering this service, it is a blessing.

    Positive

    Budget friendly.
    Easy and straightforward app.
    Variety of bills able to pay.
    Communication about payments.

    Negative

    Subscription fee price hike.
    No other cons to report.
