The app is useful to track your credit score and history in real time. Technically, it has lots of bugs and business rules that don't make sense or consistent. I availed their RentAdvantage to help my credit score, but since signing up for that is causing too much trouble with redirections and authentication. You also need to upload your bank statement that contains all senstive banking information just to prove that you pay for your rent. There's no way to call customer service. So frustrating!

Ok for checking your score, but everything else falls short. The app is glitchy, UI is dated/hard to find anything, and you get flooded with annoying notifications like you_ credit age going up by 2 weeks 🙄 I understand they're trying to get you back into the app, but the credit offers are weak and never match competitors anyway.

This app is entertainment use only I think... 😏 1. I regularly use my credit card for between $3-4k ea month, w/the balance promptly paid, I get warning that failure to use credit may result in lender closing account..(I use the credit, I just don't pay any interest!) thus my credit score drops. 😆 2.) Although I have been using credit cards, credit lines, mortgages etc for about 32 years, apparently, Borrowell shows me of having a "credit age" of 2yrs9!!! 😆 I've had THE APP longer than that!

Hi, thanks for the feedback! Borrowell presents your Equifax credit information, which comes directly from Equifax Canada. If you have recently made a payment on one of your tradelines/accounts, it can take some time for it to reflect on your credit report. For more information, please message us at info@borrowell.com with the subject "App review".
