Promised a loan called me daily to see if I got the funds when I stated no then they would deposit money that I needed to pay back with money cards they also got my mobile banking info and now my account is overdrawn by 3000 and is locked
I applied for a loan with LendingClub. I was rejected. I sought, signed and accepted a loan with a different company and moved on. Until I unexpectedly received an email that my LendingClub payment was going through.. I was confused and panicked, and called LendingClub right away because I couldn't afford both and had acted under the information that I received - that the loan was rejected - and sought another loan. I was told that I could cancel and I began the process of cancelling, and that I needed to repay the initial amount that had gone out to my personal account and my creditors within 30 days.
I called LendingClub about twice a week after this action to touch base about my cancellation, because I kept getting scary email reminders and I was assured that my cancellation was on track and that I could even seek an extension if my creditors were slow in repaying the amount back to me to be returned.
My final creditor issued my refund in the form of a check - and it wasn't going to make it to me within the 30 days allotted, so I told LendingClub that I indeed needed an extension. Numerous LendingClub employees assured me over recorded phone calls that I was on track for an extension and that I needed to call when I received the check.
But today I noticed my first loan payment had cleared from my account - so I called again in a panic to let LendingClub know there was a mistake and that I was still awaiting one final refund.
And I was suddenly told there was no such thing as a loan cancellation extension, despite several employees assuring me over the past month that there was.
They're telling me that my only option is to pay the full amount (with interest) and said that they'll deal with the employees who (in my words) "misled" me about there being an extension. But they said there is no such thing and that they would deal with these employees separately, but that it would no way impact my loan repayment.
LendingClub willfully miscommunicated loan repayment and cancellation terms with me on several occasions over the course of more than 30 days. To my enormous detriment and to their gain - they're going to get a lot more money from me as a result of their lies.
I would like the loan cancellation extension that was voiced to me as an option and that I was told was requested on my behalf repeatedly over the course of the month so that I only need to pay back what the company initially paid out to me, as several LendingClub employees communicated to me over recorded phone conversations.
I had applied online for a personal loan. They contacted me and told me I was approved and sent me a loan document to sign. Once that was received and signed, they told me they could not place the money I was approved for in my bank account because my bank was not registered with the BBB.
I gave them my credit card to place the money on and they made 2 payments ($400 and another for $794). My loan was for $5000.00. Five days later, my card returned the payments and charged me for NSF checks.
I called the number given to me that was supposed to be my loan officer. It just rings busy. I texted the number given me and no answer. Thye now have my bank account information and 2 credit card numbers.
I was a fool.
I looked up the IP address of the email that was sent to me with my loan paperwork, it is for a business in Washington.
I went over the loan agreement with a fine tooth comb today and realized the signatures on the loan did not match the names on the loan. I've been had; and I don't think this is the last I will hear from this scammer.
This is what I gave to the Real Lending Club company below. My story:
This is the letter that I sent to the real Lending Club Company I found which was the corp. office in San Francisco. I called them after I spent the $1050.00 to the fraudulent company. They're also investigating them at their end. When I called the real lending company, they said they don't work this way at all. I sent the below info. to the real Lending Club co. at [email protected]
When I spoke to the real Lending Club company they said they don't do government loans and they don't charge fees in advance or use appleplay or ebay cards for payments that these people asked me to do. Also, they don't have offices in Florida. Attached is the document that this fraudulent Lending Club company in Florida gave me. I found out you don’t have an office in Florida.
They scammed $1050.00 from me yesterday. They said they will send the money western union, but I have to pay Florida state tax fee, then insurance fees if I default and then transfer fees. I said it’s illegal to take fees in advance of a loan. They said they’ll give me $2000.00 back. Then today they wanted another $300.00 because they had to change the western union date. They’re fake office they said was at 1756 N. Bayshore Drive, Miami, FL 33132. The phone number they contacted me on was 1-850-204-1410.
The guys representing your company are Ron Adams and Financial Dept guy Albert Franklin. They said the loan of $5000.00 was coming western union from James Miller. They had me go get google play cards and ebay cards because that’s how their company pays activation, insurance and certificate fees. I know all lies, because they kept asking for more and more money and making more excuses. I saw the main co. on the internet and they said yes their corp. office is in San Francisco and they have 200 offices. But when I called your office today they said there’s none in Miami, FL.
I’m a victim of a big scam that’s going on using your company name. They’re ruining your company name. No one will trust it. You’ll get nasty complaints when your offices never really did it. They also said things are done differently because it’s a government loan. When your main office said it’s a private company. I should have called you guys yesterday but I thought I only had to pay a little which I still was disturbed about. They wanted my bank info, SS# etc. I changed my passwords to my bank.
I spoke to Shenella (sp) from your Jamaica office and she was nice enough to give me your email to report this. Please investigate and shut them down. They will probably move away by Monday, because I told them I contacted you and your office said they were a scam. I lost my whole social security check – my living expenses for the month because of them. Please shut them down.
You have the power with the FBI and agencies and you have the money to go after them. Have your own private investigators find a way to shut them down. I’ll report to FBI internet crime site too, but you guys need to stop this. It’s hurting innocent people.
Company research. The REAL company can be found here and was sued by the SEC and lost, Their files was closed by the BBB in June of 2019 https://www.bbb.org/us/ca/san-francisco/profile/financial-services/lendingclub-corporation-1116-361746/details#additional-info The new company appeared out of nowhere in January of 2020 at this website.
The complaints continue and there is also a report of a company in TX with the same address as the CA company. A nationwide search of "The Lend Club" on the BBB site only comes up with one company that matches but no details are available due to a 404 error. The Lending Club (888) 596-3157 PO Box 56480, Portland, OR 97238-6480 The company cannot be located at businesssearch.sos.ca.gov using even using the single keyword LEND.
As if to give unwary consumers that are desperate for a loan a warning for them to ignore, their website ICON is the Disney alligator Brutus from "The Rescuers". The high pressure, lack of company history, inability to locate legitimate records, and warnings from the BBB about an internet loan scam all point to a fraudulent enterprise that consumers should stay far away from.

These people called me 2 different weeks back to back. The first time I already knew they were on some bull s**t bc they told me they emailed me. I said nope I didnt get an email. They ended the conversation with theyre going to resend the email. This morning they called again. I just politely listened to the man. He caught my attention when he told me his name was John Johnson and gave e a number for Mark Brown. If yu ask me those or too simple of names. Who names their kid John Johnson but their english is so broken. Anyway< this person read off all my information. When do they do that? Bank Info and all.. Nope, Ive found a fraud. I knew it was bull when he said Im approved for 3000 installment loan paying 121 for the next 3 years. In all actuality I wanted to jump on that but lets be realistic. Hopefully they cant do too much to anyone. Just be careful
This company promises great interest and returns and is nothing more than a PONZI scheme. They lend money to people through micro loans and there is 100% zero recourse to people that don't pay. Lending club will have you auto invest in these micro loans to create you a porfolio that will crumble and net you zero profit. If you buy 1000 loans and 25 go bad it will kill your entire portfolio! Lending club is handing out this money as fast as they get it because they make money on the transaction. Stay away from this as you will not make any money what so ever and only have headaches. Your money is non accessable once you invest too!
Supposedly he's the ceo of lending club 2 years ago i was scammed out of $200 when trying to apply for a payday loan,, now since then i've reacieved hundreds of emails, phone calls, text messages and to this day i still get at least 1-3 calls a day from companies like this trying to take your information and lie to you by reassuring you that the privatev information you give them will not be shared with anyone or other companies and that's a lie too. Anything that sounds too goood to be true always is a scam. This time i'm reporting these people before they can get a chance to scam me, this time the name was scott sanbarn but it's always a different name but the same address, 71 stevenson st., suite 300, san francisco ca, 94105( and the opt-out option isn't an option either) they still take all the info you give them and share it with whomever they want without any consequences.
