Every time I call with a question, I am put on hold for quite a while before I eventually hang up. It's always 15 or more minutes and no one even checks on me while I'm holding - they could just pick... See more

Unsolicited live checks - beware

They are sending out unsolicited live checks, trying to get people to take out a loan with them. This is a major red flag, since it would easily allow fraud. I will never work with this company, and I'll be sure to let everyone I know not to work with them, as well.

The consumer finance industry, which includes Sunset Finance as well as many other companies, is heavily regulated by State and Federal law. The Live Checks received in the mail meet all federal and state guidelines, and this type of advertising/solicitation is common within the consumer finance industry. In fact, many consumers look forward to receiving checks during the holidays, and the convenience of receiving it in the mail is also welcomed. Should you wish to not be included on future solicitations, there are instructions included within the mailers that explain how you may opt-out.

Okay

The staff were great and friendly. The application process needs improvement and updating; it needs to be more digital. The process of receiving funds needs to be digital as a lot of people are steering away from paper checks.

They will rip you off. You pay the account in full and 6 months later they come saying you owe again. They are crooks!!!
