Thank you for sharing your experience with us, Mayra It’s great to hear the positive feedback. You are correct that this is an expensive form of borrowing. River Valley Loans, loans are designed to meet short-term borrowing needs and are not intended to be a long-term financial solution. There is no fee for paying the loan off early and many of our customers save a significant amount in fees when they pay the loan off early. Please don't hesitate to reach out to us any time at feedback@rivervalleyloans.com or at (833) 987-4837.

These are fake reviews

These are fake reviews. This company is crazy deceptive. They charge you interest based on the original loan and not your balance so even if you owe 50 bucks you will be racking up insanely high interest every day. A 1000 loan will likely cost you in a ballpark of 7000.

In response to them reaching out, they did infact reach me and explained the predatory practice of structuring their loan just as I expected - the interest charged is based on the original loan, no matter how much you pay this down you are sinking fast contrary to what they said in their response below. Find money literally anywhere else or you will pay a fortune.

Hi Isa, thank you for reaching out, We are always here to help.

We are firmly committed to ensuring that our customers have a clear understanding of the fact that this is an expensive form of borrowing. As such, we make it a top priority to provide them with a comprehensive breakdown of our rates and terms, while also providing full disclosure on all fees associated with the loan well before originating the loan. Our goal is to ensure that our customers are fully informed and equipped to make informed decisions regarding their borrowing needs, while also fostering a culture of transparency and trust in all our dealings.

We strongly encourage our customers to take advantage of our no pre-payment penalty policy by paying off their loan early. Doing so will result in substantial savings on interest charges. Additionally, customers have the option to make additional payments towards the principal balance of the loan, which can help reduce the overall cost of borrowing. We believe that these options provide our customers with greater flexibility and control over their finances.

Reviewing your account, we see that we attempted to reach you to resolve this matter but were unsuccessful. Please feel free to contact us directly at feedback@rivervalleyloans.com or (833) 987-4837 at your earliest convenience so we may resolve this issue.

Thank you.

The loan was easy to get

The loan was easy to get! I paid it off and stayed in good standings with no late payments. When it was paid off they sent me email after email offering for me to get a new loan. I decided to get another one and GUESS WHAT!!!! I got denied! After staying in good standings and paying off the loan, I GOT DENIED! Waste of time being they check your credit but they sure don’t report to it!
