Contract

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Original review updated Jul 17, 2026

Customes service agent was great.. customer service agent had a lot and i mean a lot of background noise, almost like a party was going on. It made the phone call very difficult to hear and made understanding her even harder as she already had a difficult accent to understand her english.

Preferred solution: Loan adjustment

User's recommendation: Less background noise and better english pronunciation

Stealing Customers Refunds

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Updated by user Jul 30, 2026

Terrible company and will never do business with them again.

Original review Jul 13, 2026

AFFIRM likes to steal customers money when they have a return. Then they tie up your funds in Lingo for 30 days after you dispute and give them all the information and evidence.

Then they tell you that you lost your dispute and still have to pay for something that you don't have. SCAMDEMIC!

Loss:
$268

Preferred solution: Full refund

User's recommendation: Don't use them at all!

Billing

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I do not know why my identity can not be confirmed. There was no problem When I applied the first and second time.

Had to cancel because of an medical emergency. Get ready to rebook and I keep getting the message: " We can not verify your identity." Why when nothing change. I upload my DL ten times and took the picture on your website as suggested by you.

You have my name as ***

DL and one of the Credit Bureau has it as *** ***.

This has been very frustrating, first many cards to get the credit applied, which *** Did a good job. Have one credit left for the vendor to send over, and my entire balance will be ZERO.

No one can tell me the problem. I am running out of time to rebook I was schedule to leave on Wednesday, Is there any help available???

User's recommendation: do not use affirm

Bank transfer error

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Feb 3: $8.43 book purchase via Affirm; Thriftbooks did not process.
  • - Affirm withdrew $8.43; no order processed.
  • - Please refund $8.43 to checking.
Contains 2 confidential files for company representatives
Updated by user Mar 08, 2026

Affirm way to resolve the issue if an Unauthorized ACH withdraw was to LOCK my Affirm debit card (ending with 9532) which is how you can make online purchases. They messed up and then treat a customer this way. Extremely sad way to treat customers.

Updated by user Mar 08, 2026

Don't do business with them !I contacted my Bank and they did an Unauthorized ACH withdraw and my $8.43 was reimbursed.But Affirm sent me a message that my Affirm Debit card was LOCKED and I would need to deposit the funds $8.43 into my Affirm Money account to cover the transaction (which was $0.00 transaction) .I won't be doing business with Affirm ever again.

Updated by user Feb 21, 2026

There was no way to file a dispute Affirm online because there never was an order made on February 3rd so no transaction showed up on the website app. All i have was the information under the photos attached to prove the information about this Bank transfer.

Original review updated Feb 21, 2026
I attempted to purchase a book from Thiftbooks in February 3 for $8.43 using my Affirm card ending with 9532 but the order was not processed through Thiftbooks.
But Affirm processed the Bank transfer from my checking account for $8.43 on February 3rd.
Yet there was never any order processed.
I had to make another purchase days later to get the book I wanted because the order did not process the first time. 8.32 which I used my Affirm money for that order.
So tell me, How can Affirm legally take funds from my checking account without there being a order that corresponds with this transaction to my checking account?
One of your Supervisors in CS told me it would be handled and its been 18 days since this transfer was done.
The results I expect : Immediately put my $8.43 back into my checking for a fraudulent bank transfer made with no sale processed.
*** 470.848.****
Loss:
$8

Preferred solution: Full refund and an explanation on how the transfer was allowed since no purchase was ever made.

Needed to speak to live agent regarding upcoming payment

AI Highlights
  • - Two listed customer service numbers are AI generated.
  • - No option to speak with a live agent; AI responds.
  • - Desire to restore live customer service.

There are two customer service phone numbers 1 (85*) ***-**** and (855)914-**** both of which are AI generated. There is ABSOLUTLY no way of speaking with a live agent.

The more you ask to speak to a live agent the only response you get is "I am AI, I cannot transfer you to a live agent Im sorry but what going on with AI!!! Bring back live customer service - This is ridiculous

User's recommendation: Don't waste your time trying to call to speak with a live agent

Overcharged amount

On May 30th I use my car to purchase $100 worth of gas. However I only use $70.

The store was *** and they said they don't issue refunds they only charge for the amount used. It's been almost 20 days and I still haven't received the $30 credit from Affirm

Preferred solution: Full refund

User's recommendation: Be patient

Unauthorized charges

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Refund for fraudulent charges shouldn't take 30 days; disability makes $70 hard to cover prescriptions.

Don't make someone wait 30 days to get a refund for fraudulent charges. $70 isn't alot of money until you're on disability.

This means that i will not be able to pay for one of my prescriptions.

I'm 75 on disability and never heard of y'all until all this popped up. Maybe you should ask for 2 forms of payment and the past 4 of a social so people can't just *** a debit card.

Loss:
$70

Preferred solution: Full refund

User's recommendation: Don't use affirm
