Quotes of the week

Hear from some of the most impactful users to drive changes

I used this 'bank' for almost a year, and honestly, it was great while it lasted. However, sudden drops in the cash advance amount and issues with overdraft protection eligibility were frustrating. Customer service was vague and unhelpful, making the experience feel misleading.

I was getting $700 advances then got dropped to $600, and when I got paid today, my advance dropped to $200. I will not be using Current much longer.

My experience with the Credit Builder card from Current has been marred by inaccurate payment and balance reporting. Despite assurances from Current, unauthorized transactions were deducting funds without being applied or reflected in my balance.
