I am sooooo grateful for this site, I to almost got suckered in. Of course when in need of cash but, Instead of trying it this way I will trust God! Of course Montel makes it seem trust worthy. But He got an endorsement check to do so. And I'm sure he never actually was in need of getting a Money Mutal loan from any of the 60 lenders at an extremely high interest rate.

I knew this was a scam the second i heard the commercial. A once, mildly famous, daytime talk show host, said that i could have a grand. If this j-hole had to do bull commercials just to keep his upper-middle-class lifestyle without having to actually get a job. Talk about living the dream. I would rather be poor and work my $#*! off for my daughter than be a punk and use my face to get a buck. Noone cares about your balding, color blind, white woman marrying, fake $#*!. But he got a check he doesn't have to pay back. What a $#*!.

THE NIGHTMARE CONTINUES WITH THIS SITE. NOW I AM GETTING RUDE AND THREATING CALLS FROM # *******584 AT ALL HOURS OF THE DAY. BEEN CALLED A MOTHER F__KER WHEN I TRIED TO TELL THEM THAT I WAS NOT THE PERSON THEY WERE LOOKING FOR. MY FRIENDS HAVE EVEN BEEN CALLED. WHAT THEY DO IS MAKE THREATS OF LEGAL ACTION SO YOU WILL GIVE THEM YOUR BANK INFO THEN THEY DRAIN YOUR BANK ACCOUNT. THIS PRACTICE IS ONE BIG SCAM. I CONTACTED THE DEPT OF FANANCIAL INST IN MY STATE. I WAS TOLD TO TRACK AND DOCUMENT ALL CONTACTS AND FILE A COMPLAINT WITH THE FCC. BEWARE OF CALLS CONCERNING RE: USFASTCASH UNITEDLOANS EASTSIDE LENDERS. MY RESEARCH FOUND THAT ALL OF THESE LENDERS ARE UNDER INVERTIGATION. WE NEED TO BAND TOGETHER AND FIND A WAY TO HAVE THESE LENDERS SHUT DOWN..

I'm glad I found this site (will bookmark it for future needs w/other websites!) Like so many others I found myself in a financial bind and my car broke down, needed $ for repairs so I can get to my full time job and full time university classes- no work, no money, so the car is essential. Thank you everyone for taking the time to sound the alarm, when someone is desperate things are done that wouldn't normally be done, but I definitely don't need the problems a loan from Money Mutual would cause! Anyone in this bind, try PL$ check cashing: they offer payday loans as well as smart installment loans and don't rape your checking account for payment. You simply leave them a post dated check for your next payday, which they hold til then. When you come in and pay the loan and fee ( yes, the fees are high, but there's no encumbrance of your email, phone, bank account!), they return the check to you, no perpetual access to your bank account/life!

I would have been better off going to a loan shark! I agree with others Montel should be ashamed of himself for endorsing this web site.

I want to thank all of you that wrote in, you stopped me from making a difficult situation worse. Like many I was laid off, I went through all my savings to keep my bills up. I will be back at work in September, but I have no money left to pay Sept. Bills, I hate falling behind and $1,000 would have kept my payments current. I'm so glad I didn't do this. I pray for the rest of you that shared your bad experience, that some one will help you out of this situation. I was going to buy Montel's Juicer in the near future; but I'm sure that's a lie also. I wonder if Montel knows what this site does to people? Celebarties should know exactly what they are representing it puts their credibility on the line.

I always like Montel, but apparently he doesn't know what the heck he is endorsing. I was in a crunch and went to that website and filled all my information and punched submit and it went to another site to fill out the same information I just filled in and then wanted to sell me a credit card and debit my account $149.95 immediately and $33.00 every month to join. What a scam!

I was about to apply but think God for the worldwide web and reviews. It's a shame they are taking advantage of people, however people just don't read the fine print. That's what they count on though. They can care less if you read it or not its still money in the bank for them! "YOUR MONEY"!

I saw this ad by Montell a few weeks ago. When I got into a short term finacial crisis I was almost tempted to do so, and I'm glad I looked for reviews. The website also states it is a payday loan. North Carolina has barred these companies from operating in the state. Pawn Shops use simialr tatcics, but if you don't payback the loan based on the item you pawn, then they are able to sell it and you're not stuck trying to get out of debt. No one should look down on people for being poor, for the same fate can happen to you. I have been broke, but I always pray and hang in there. Believe in God and not these hypocrites nor the pitchmen they use to sell you crap on TV.
As for Montell, I really used to think you were a stand up guy. I also used to see you advertise to help people who could not afford their medications, but you know this is not right. Now you pimpimg for LIFELOCK who is also now becoming a scam.
I pray everyone gets out of their financial crisis(s) and the spirit of debt be removed in the name of Jesus, Amen and God Bless you.

Everyone on this site is correct. However if you were making a big purchase such as a house or car, i think many would read everything and ask questions before purchasing. While watching the commercial if you look at the small words on the screen, they actually let you know that they are not a lender and more. However, it is not on the screen long enough to read through. You can actually review that on the site. So I don't think it is a scam. Money that is easy to get with bad credit is gonna cost you. If you have disposable income to spare every week and can pay what they are asking then by all means go for it. If not, then stay away from these types of loans. Better yet, the money you would use to pay them back, can be used to pay off some debt. People, always read the fine print. I am also sorry that you had to go through this.

Since I used this site I have all kinds of businesses accessing my checking account and taking funds not authorized. Websaversclub.com for 29.98 and they refuse to refund the money and just today I got another one that took miney in the form of a check thsy made up Debt2Wealth for 27.00 now I have 4 overdrafts at 35.00 each. I filed Fraud charges with the bank I have to do it this way becuase if I talk to them and they now refund the money I still have to pay the overdrafts. If my bank files it as fraud and they get my money back I don't have to pay these fees. The problem with that is it takes at least 10 business days before they start the investigation. I am desabled and live on a fixed income these S. O. B's don't care they just tap into your account when ever they want to. I can not find a number for Money Mutual I have emailed them I need the City and State wher this copany is I am filing charges with the Consumer Protection Agency - Better Business Bureau in their city and the Attorney General in their state. I f some one has the information what their physical address is please let me know. I am going to plaster this all over Facebook - Twitter - My Space and U-Tube These people have to be stopped they prey on the weak and helpless and have no remorse for the problems they create. Please evry one Put this info all over social sites.

Thank you all for writing reviews about MoneyMutual. I was thinking about going to get a loan through them to help pay a couple of bills, I am glad I came across this website because as everyone knows desperate times call for desperate measures and I would have filled everything out and given all my info just to get screwed in the end. So thanks again to all that wrote and I'm sorry you went through what you did and all the problems you have now because of MoneyMutual.

It may not be a scam but it is taking advantage of those in need. It is hard to believe that montel (who claims to care) would endorse any type of program such as this. I will not belittle and dismiss those who were caught in this web unlike others who carry an holy than thou attude I will however pray that you recover from your problems and be more careful in the future cause I've been there

May I recommend a GOOD payday loan? Spot on loans, which also goes under PDL or Impact. They don't sell your information, they tell you up front what the fees are (kinda high, so I only borrow what is needed and pay it off IMMEDIATELY) but they are the most honest I have ever dealt with. *******102

I am kind of disappointed with this site. It seems that no one really read what they were getting into. This is not a scam, it is a payday loan. You guys should get some education on finance and grammar. Money Mutual is a bad idea, but it is not a scam. Everything that this company is doing is legal. Read the fine print kids.

OMG!
May 30, 2010

OMG! I started filling out the loan app, and for some reason I just stop because it turn out to be a payday loan. I am just like alot of other people very stress and not in the best of health and needed help. But I was talkin to my cousin and he was telling me that you can also get a personal loan instead of a payday. I went back to look at it and I came across this site. I am so so happy that I did because the last thing I need is a company stilling the lil money I do have out of my account. Montel have money and it don't affect him in anyway, but thats about right people with money could careless about us that is living check to check. We need to all pull together and put a class action law suit on this company and Montel for lying..
