Highly recommended!
February 21, 2019

After my sports car died in November I was out of a car until a friend told me about Fair. Long story short I wound up with a Hyundai Veloster and I love It! Use promo Code 4AXDD6YS for $100 off!

Amazing experience
February 20, 2019

When I stumbled across fair.com ok... contacted customer service via chat they called me right away was given point of contact at the dealership & was on my way. Hoping the dealership knew about the app (another negative comment I noticed) I walked in the salesman super awesome knew exactly what I was picking up and knew all about fair.com! They were still detailing my car but otherwise I showed them my License

Blown Away
February 26, 2019

Absolutely amazing from start to finish. Support is like nothing else I've ever experienced! They hold your hand through the whole process and watch out for you in every way. You are absolutely catered to and they do everything they possibly can to make sure you're taken care of and happy with your choice! I couldn't say enough good things about Fair. TL; DR - Simple. Fast. Easy. Vroom. Seriously though

Cars not in my city
February 23, 2019

I don't want to drive multiple hours to pick up a car and I don't trust "free delivery" so why is there no filter to only show cars in my actual city?

Easy and Flexible
February 23, 2019

Great way to get a car either temporarily or long term. There is zero obligation in the commitment and the cars seem to be good quality. I recommend it.

So happy!
February 26, 2019

I liked the idea of Fair and all it offered so decided to go ahead and lease a car through the app. It honestly couldn't have been any easier and actually fun to search all the car options they have. Once I found my car Matt Dowley and Matt Scullin went over and beyond to make sure I was happy and helped with anything. The Matt attack made everything so simple even though it's a super simple process anyways. I'm definitely gonna lease with Fair from here on out. Thanks for creating a great app!

E-mailing Support seems to be the lesser of two evils. With only six days left before my temp license plate expires we'll see if Fair comes through."

Horrible experience
February 26, 2019

Picked a car from fair app and the dealership gave the a lemon. It sounded like I drove a monster truck of the lot. Gave it right back and had to wait a 6 business day unwind. You will be charged recurring payment even if you didn't drive the vehicle home. After the 6 days you will have to wait another 5-10 business days for your money back. For someone who does Uber for a living the service is far from convenient. Wind down period takes way too long

Good start
March 2, 2019

No one could tell me how many miles I was being charged for. Everyone said they didn't access to that information. Then they'd transfer me to the "right" department. Billing sent me to concierge who sent me to finance and back around again. Each time waiting on hold at least 30 minutes between transfers. 3 different times people said they would have to get back to me and have someone call me in 2-3 business days. No one ever called. They won in the end I just paid the extra money because I was tired of calling being placed on hold and never getting an answer."

Don't even use
March 2, 2019

Probably the worse app ever. I have been trying get a car since December but I keep getting a response back saying my drivers license expired which it doesn't expire until the next year. They supposedly fixed it but never anything new don't waste your time it's useless

Refusal to assist
March 2, 2019

Up until today the customer service from Fair was top notch on my end. I haven't placed my order yet I have been having issues with them accepting my statements. I had been going back and forth since the beginning of January and due to this I was given a $250 discount towards my start up payment. Finally today all documents were accepted and I go to place an order. Being the cheap guy I am I decide hey I have a referral code maybe I can save an extra 100. WRONG the referral code basically removed the discount they applied on my account. When I reached out for help I was told that the 100$ referral was the only discount available even after explaining that it was a courtesy due to the inconvenience of having to wait two months as well as other smaller issues along the way. It's ridiculous that after all this time now you guys refuse to help me. I only didn't 1 star because I did have 2 reps who did an amazing job.

I have a 2018 Chevy equinox and I love this car from fair! It wasn't expensive and the start payment was reasonable! Now I am debating if I should get another car from fair or not. My 10k mikes are almost up and I've been shopping around for a month maybe a little longer for an affordable start payment. Last years start payments were under 1k and now! They are 1

The service until I got my car was great. I was very excited. But looks like as soon as you are a customer they don't value you as much. The chat on my APP

No transparency
March 4, 2019

I called again we set a pick up and then I was informed that my car wouldn't be available for another week. I waited a week and called back the Fair staff had no idea what was going on with my order they said they'd need 24 hrs to contact the dealer and get back to me they never did. I called the dealership myself and was told the car I rented was not available wouldn't be for weeks but they could give me a loaner car. I didn't want to have to keep driving way to out the dealership to return the loaner I was just going to cancel my order

From the business

Fair is a new way to get a used car that lets you lease a pre-owned vehicle completely digitally – and for as long as you want. Use your phone or the web to shop cars with monthly payments that fit your budget, get approved in-app, sign for the one you want with your finger, then drive it month-to-month for ultimate flexibility, or on a 2-year or 3-year lease if you want the best value.
