Deferit is great
Date: Oct 27 2023SummaryOverall experience, this is a good app. I haven’t had many issues with it but I will continue to use it long as it’s available.

PositiveI love deferit, I’ve been using it for a while now and it is great with helping me catch up on bills that I may not have enough to pay the full amount. The subscription fee is low. They pay the bill right away unless it’s something that has to be paid by check and they still get that in the mail right away.
NegativeNo cons for me. It’s a cool service that I would recommend to anyone

Best App Ever
Date: Oct 27 2023SummaryThe Best Pay in 4 app to ever do it!!!! Awesome customer service, very responsive, and payments made quickly. Never an issue!
PositiveThis is the best app that ever came out. I have been using them for close to a year now and I have no complaints. Customer Service is awesome, they are very attentive and responsive for being able to only reach them via email; and to Customer Service is everything and is what makes their service the best yet. Not to mention, payments are made within minutes of you uploading your bill and making your first payment. I get a receipt from the biller and Deferit fast.
NegativeOnly thing I can con at this time is the need to continuously log into the app; which would make it a tech issue.

Came in clutch!
Date: Oct 30 2023Summary10/10. When a program is user friendly and does it what it says it will, there's nothing to complain about. Deferit said they will help me take care of my bills and that's what they did.
PositiveThe process is extremely easy. I was approved almost immediately and they were able to confirm my bill was eligible within minutes.
As an individual who is on the upswing of my credit building (go me!) I also appreciated the approval amount. It took care of my past due balance but wasn't the full amount that I needed. While most people would have complained, I appreciated that the company put the responsibility back on me to handle the rest. These skills really help when building and learning about credit/bills/financial literacy. They made the payment same day and the pay back options are super financial friendly. I usually don't recommend companies/ programs but truthfully many people I know are having hard times paying their bills so I definitely have been referring people to use deferrit.
It also reports to your credit so like ... win win ya know?
I will use Deferit to relieve some financial stress but also to give me a leg up on my financial future.NegativeUsually I have a list of complaints for everything. I honestly can say I don't have any complaints with Deferit. The process was super smooth for me.

Still new to it but so far so good
Date: Oct 29 2023SummarySo far so good. I had it like 30 days so I haven't really seen everything this app can be yet. I'm sure in another 3 months I will have a better understanding of the app.
PositiveI like that it's an app where you can pay bills in installments that a life savor haven't had it for long so I don't know much about it yet. I do like that if the bill is over the limit that you have you can put extra money on it.
NegativeI don't like the second time when I did a bill it charged me a holding fee that I will get back. I wish it was more like afterpay a point system that you can see to earn higher money for bills and even over time a no down payment on bill under 400.

Deferit review
Date: Jun 15 2023SummaryMy experience with Deferit has been anything but grand or pleasant. My limit was 300 dollars after already paying 950 dollars worth of bills on time. I attempted to use that 300 dollars to pay a rent bill well over that amount but figured I'd at least be able to split the 300 dollars portion into payments. Ha! I submitted the bill and got a message that I could use 100 of the 300 dollars. If I wanted to use the remaining 200 dollars, I would need to reupload the bill, pay off the first two payments of the first installment, and then they'd pay another 100 dollars. Then if I wanted to use that final 100 dollars, the same process, so what was once a 300-dollar limit they "so graciously provided me with" is now 200-dollar. When you try and reach out to them, it takes almost two weeks for them to answer, and when they finally do answer, they send you a script they pulled from their site, and it doesn't even answer your damn questions. Stay far away from them!!
PositiveAbsolutely no pros! Nothing about this company seems legitimate, and every time you "follow their rules," they decrease the amount of the limit they've provided you for paying on time.
NegativePlenty of cons, and I've got them all listed below.

Comes in handy
Date: Oct 27 2023SummaryIt’s been a very good program and has helped me out a lot especially in this economy when inflation is high and you need a little help. I am glad this program exists and I love that they report to the credit companies so that it can help raise your credit. Because paying bills on time should show on your credit report.
PositiveIt is user friendly, easy to use and the bills get paid in a timely manner. I haven’t had any problems with the bills I have uploaded to be paid and they have always been paid within a few hours. The app is easy to navigate and you can see what your available balance is through the app. It’s also very organized in knowing what you owe back. Deferit is also good to work with when you need to extend a repayment back.
NegativeEasier options to talk to customer service would be nice. It can be very hard to get ahold of customer service because their online customer service chat doesn’t always work. And it can sometimes take customer service a few days to get back to you through email. I also wish they had more options for the bills they will pay.
