Are you considering Uprova and wondering what the reviews state about the company?

As a background, Uprova helps with personal loans. They've been around for 8 years, and have a few different types of loans. On their website, they discuss how they are not a payday loan lender, but rather they do "tribal loans." They state with Uprova, the loans offer no hidden fees, a fixed number of payments, easy loan terms, paying down principles with each payment, no prepayment penalties, and multiple repayment options.

Uprova Reviews

When I am reviewing companies, I do my best to pull reviews from the most unbiased sources. I want to read both the positive and the negative reviews to get a sense of my potential experience.

BBB

I was able to find Uprova on BBB. In the last 3 years, they had received 132 complaints.

Unfortunately, I was unable to find positive reviews on Uprova on their BBB page. The one 5 star review, was actually negative, so it must have been a mistake. Some of the negative reviews discussed that they felt as though they were being scammed. A lot of promises were made but not kept once they started using Uprova for a loan.

I was unable to find any Uprova Reddit reviews, besides this one person who posted about their experience. It sounds like they received a mailer from Uprova stating they were qualified for a loan.

I am unsure if Uprova is sending out mailers to a lot of people, because I did not see it mentioned in many reviews, besides the one above.

Google Reviews

On Google reviews, Uprova has a 4.7 out of 5 stars.

On Google, there were both positive and negative reviews. Some stated that they felt scammed, while others felt as though they just did not read the fine print and wished they had. They didn't feel scammed, but rather may have gone with someone else if they had been more careful.

There were both positive and negative reviews to be found. I noticed a lot of reviews given directly after their experience. Not that this is wrong, but rather, I am curious the long term experiences that people have. TrustPilot has loads of positive reviews and it seems as though even the negative reviews can confirm that they did receive the loan.
