“You will pay forever”

Chris L.
8/25/24

Paid of 3k without ever missing a payment. Then they ketlpt charging me 10$ a month I askednthrm to stop and after a year the bank told me closing the account was the only way to stop them from taking money from my account. Then a guy named Andre emailed me saying I owe 30$. I said no and send me a bill. Then they posted me owing 270 to trans union saying I missed payments. I asked for a detailed bill and he said look at my account and see what I owe from missed payments. I told him that account does not exist because of them and I cannot check it. I asked again for a detailed bill and he stopped messaging me.

I bought over 3,000 worth of product and paid it off in less than 5 months. Never missed a payment. They say they update to the credit bureaus, but that is every 3-4 months if you complain. Today my credit score dropped 18 points because they closed my account for no reason. I had a zero balance! I was going to buy something else, but not now. So they dropped my score with a hard inquiry in December and dropped my score again in September because they closed my account. I will never buy from them again.

Longest ordering process I've ever seen. After being required to pay first I waited two weeks before my order even shipped. To top it off they auto debit your bank account whenever they want and wont change it to fit your needs. First and last time i do business with them.

First off the customer service is horrible they do not speak English and they are very rude to anyone calling from the United states. Second they quote you one price and then add on extra intrest charges on there own. I am actually hiring a lawyer because of the illegal charges they decide to take. They take advantage of having your bank account by adding extra charges never quoted on the original purchase price.

Thank you for the review! We work really hard to offer the best service and we're so sorry to hear that we didn't hit the mark for you.
Interest is based on your credit assessment and different for everyone. The faster the balance decreases the less interest you pay. You can make extra payments, or pay in full anytime without the penalties. Furthermore, we take the payments directly from your account via pre-authorized payments and they follow the payment schedule you confirmed before shipping. Please reach us at 1-800-906-0976 x 340 and we'd be happy to provide you with full payment history from day one until now.

A big ordeal to go through to buy anything. Just got the computer, but even with DSL high speed internet, very slow and won't load any apps hardly at all, apps it does have cost if you keep after 30 days, it can't even load it's own virus protection I had to load Firefox to get anything to work Windows 10 is no good going to ask for a return label, it does have nice big screen and was easy to set up, all in one takes no space. I'll try few more days but my Lenovo small laptop is faster and works better.

I would have to say that this is one of the worst companies ever and would definitely not waste any time ordering anything from this company! I was a MDG customer for years was given a $1500.00 credit for purchases. I paid off my order which grew with major interest to $3000.00 that was paid in full. MDG kept texting and texting me about my credit application so I called and was immediately given another credit in the amount of $1900.00 I made a purchase of $1700.00 for a washer and dryer with a pending tracking order with a few seconds thereafter, I received an email stating that MDG denied my credit with an adverse action letter my credit score was over 600 so therefore, I would definitely rate MDG a 1star!

Paid my balance last week, and today I was still charged a scheduled payment. Now it looks like I have to wait 5 days for that to clean before they process refund which will take another 5 days, I needed that money and now they have really left me in a bad position, all because I paid my balance off early

Tip for consumers:
After this experience I would never use again. You are better off just trying to save the money, or try to borrow from gopeer, far less interest rates

Was approved for $1,000 credit. After providing my banking account # and routing #, now they need prior paycheck stubs? Information was submitted yet still no acknowledgement of it. For me MDG has been a joke. Now I have other issues with them having my banking information.

Ivana V. – MDG Rep

Thanks for the feedback! It looks like the agents simply required some additional information. We do this for security purposes and there is a reason behind every request. Income needs to be verified so that we can set up a customized payment plan with the customer, and our terms and conditions state that we may ask for more detail at any time. We have been in business for many years, and just recently celebrated our 28th anniversary. Information is not requested with the intent to cause such frustrations, and we do apologize. Please understand that we are an online only company and we must take precautions when lending to prospective customers as it is different from financing done physically in person.

To even get my order to ship it took almost a week they kept sending me in a circle making me send them different paperwork and by the time it actually did ship the delivery date was literally 2 weeks later and by then another payment was due two days later. I don't recommend these people

I started the process to do this and the person who helped me was hard to understand, rude and every other day he needed some different information I went back and forth for weeks with them and I ended up saying I don't even wanna start business. I'm glad I chose not to. If I can rate this a negative stars I would.

At first everything was fine but when it comes to "verifying" and shipping they drag their feet so bad. I was told that my package would be shipped on Monday and i follow up with UPS and they said that they never got the package! Horrible service and will never go through this company again.

Hi Matthew,
We apologize if this left you with a negative experience but it takes 5-7 business days to receive the order after 1st payment is received and cleared. Also, It takes 24-48 hours to UPS to update tracking number so you can track and follow the order.

I've been approved so I checked out their laptops. I found one then compared price with Best Buy. Lol I will be buying from Best Buy. Your price is considerably higher like a few hundred higher. People your best bet is to save money then buy from a store. Their items are over priced to begin with and if you're dumb enough to only pay their bi weekly minimum payments well you'll be sorry. The interest will kill you and you'll end up paying triple the cost of what a item is actually worth. Moral of the story is there is no easy way to buy items. These online companies take advantage of low income people.

The worst customer service all the different hoops you have to jump through just to conduct business with them is out rages they never respond to anything that they require you to send in once they get it they never respond to you via email phone call or anything. My suggestion would be using only has a 100% last resort for financing

I ordered my computer on the 1st of August 2018 and paid my first payment on time already. It is the 17th and I still have not received my package. Ups says they are waiting for customs to release my package and it could take up to 60 days until it's released but I will still be paying for a computer I'm still waiting for and I wanted it before my son started school but he has already started just really disappointed about this wait time for delivery

All I wanted to do was make a simple purchase. It was a convoluted process that took several days, the shipping date for the project was missed, the delivery date was missed, and I'm being pestered for reviews for the product and for the web site before I've even received the product. Which will arrive two days before my first payment. I sent several emails to both sales and customer service asking questions about products, none of which were answered. The only time I got a call back is when it was involving money.

These guys not only dont help your credit but after a year of on time payments I decided to add a new purchase through them. Well now there is another hard inquiry on my credit thanks to them. Why they give you more credit and then hit you with a hard inquiry repeatedly I will never understand! If you like your credit or are working to improve it... go another route! That will be my last purchase with them!

Tried for 1 month to get MDG all the account info needed in order to receive our laptop... After receiving our 1st payment and all of our bank info they then informed us that they were out of the computer we had originally wanted but that they extended our credit limit to $1000. More our payment would be between $10-12 more a month... I would not recommend that anyone give them any personal info

Careful dealing with these people, been making payments for two months now on nothing, that's right on nothing. When it first started I told her I'd it takes week I'm not interested well here we are… still have nothing and once they've got you and taking your money You are no longer a priority to them. They will not answer you anymore, they're a sales only type of customer service. Avoid Deena p, she has no interest in helping anyone except herself. Like I said once the "sales" are made your done

Tip for consumers:
Don’t use this site, esp not with Deena at 662. I promise you’ll regret it.

Could not get straight answers from anyone until I actually talked to the finance department. Finally someone there spoke English well enough to explain member benefits And how it will impact your total costs. Also delivery was supposed to take place on May 12 2020. I had to schedule a day off work as well as enlist help to move my items into the house because due to corona the shipping company will not bring anything inside. Yet today on the 11th of May they contact me and tell me my items are still in Chicago and they have no idea when they will get them to the warehouse located near me to actually deliver said items. So far I am unimpressed by this company and tempted to not continue to do business with them

First of all... $#*! them... I Ordered my laptop and paid 90 a month with 2 separate payments. Sometimes they would steal another of $43 along with the $90. I have an outstanding balance that barely dropped. I called customer service. And they hung up on me. It's been nearly 2 years now. So they stole a little bit more from me than what I paid for including their high interest rates. I bet all the good reviews are from their peoples. And they will answer back to my review with a "oh I'm sorry that this happened to you". That's pretty much an automated reply that they stole from some where elses. I canceled my monthly payments since they stole from me. And lastly, crime don't pay $#*! heads.

Tip for consumers:
Buy and don't pay up these scammers.
