  • Need Some Cash for Your Home or Business? Try Lendingtree.com

    Sep 15 '03
    Pros: Site is fairly easy to navigate; Some good user tools
    Cons: The offers are nothing special and there are too few of them

    Summary: Lendingtree.com is an on- line financial resource that specializes in making loans. Rather than offering the loans directly itself, Lendingteee.com gathers up financial and personal information from customers and then submits the info to its member banks ... read more

  • DONT USE LENDING TREE LOANS

    May 11 '12
    Pros: Zero, Nada, Zip, Zilch, None
    Cons: The absolute worst customer service with zero communication and accountability.

    Summary: Hesitant to use an online lender such as Lending Tree we decided to just call and see what they had to say. After speaking with Eddie he gave us a great sales pitch and strung us right along from the get go. We had a pre qual letter in hand within half ... read more

  • Was that a threat?

    Mar 10 '12
    Pros: None that I could see
    Cons: Not truthful in advertisements of what you get. Hassle if you want to cancel.

    Summary: So their advertisement looked good and they were offering a 7 day free trial, so I thought I’d do it. Well the first thing wrong that I noticed was that when I got the welcoming email, (AFTER I gave them my credit card number) it said that I would ... read more

  • Lending tree is dead at the roots

    Dec 09 '10
    Pros: I am not sure -- they offer the same products as any other bank.
    Cons: Big ponderous beurocracy, slow response, don't care about the individual, bait and switch, expensive.

    Summary: I spoke to a Lending Tree Representative on October 15th, 2010. He pre-qualified me for a good rate, 30 year fixed product (FHA/VA) loan.  I paid the $400 for the appraisal... Then the account got bumped upstairs to the "Account Management" ... read more

  • NOTHING BUT SPAM EMAILS FOLLOWED QUOTES

    Cons: Want 700+ SPAM emails? Contact LENDINGTREE

    Summary: On May 27th I went on line and used LENDINGTREE as a source of looking for a mortgage. On the morning of 5/29, two days later, I had 300 SPAM emails from everyone you can think of.... credit cards, auto loans, cash payday loans, ... read more

  • Sneaky and Not Worth It for HELOC

    Oct 17 '09
    Pros: Lot of activity if you are interested in a mortgage refinance for your home
    Cons: No response to your request for HELOC
    Instead sneakily publish cellphone/email to the world

    Summary: The site says that you can get HELOC quotes.  I got none.  I have great credit and 30% home equity available.  They found no one to offer a HELOC.  Instead, they automatically created communications to many lenders stating that I ... read more

  • Deceptive or Incompetent...both bad options

    Jun 22 '09
    Pros: Friendly.
    Cons: Just go directly to the banks. They don't offer anything worthwhile.

    Summary: I went with them because they told me one thing (and I believed them)...then I compared it to an (honest) Bank and they always seemed to be a better deal... Well I got a big headach and got screwed. The biggest issue was that I showed up to ... read more

  • AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE!!!

    Apr 01 '09
    Pros: None.  Lending Tree will attempt to take you to the cleaners
    Cons: Everything about lending tree is a con.  Stay Away!!!

    Summary: Lending tree almost suckered me in to their scheme.  I was all ready to refinance with them.  I was going to get a good rate and the closing costs seemed reasonable.  Then they tell you that to lock your rate you will have to put down a ... read more

    Pros: Did not have to get out of my car.
    Cons: Kept me hanging on until the last minute & beyond.

    Summary: …BUYER BEWARE~~~Initially the person I began the loan process with was WONDERFUL!! Communicative, polite, responsive…once my loan went to my personalized loan processor everything went down the tubes, esp as far as customer service. She never ... read more

  • LendingTree - another example of a bad experience

    Nov 17 '07
    Pros: None
    Cons: Do your homework before giving LendingTree.com your money

    Summary: LendingTree.com and Home Loan Center denied me a $600.00 refund of a deposit for locking-in the interest rate and specified closing costs on a first time home purchase. They changed the terms on the loan from 0% down to 5% down a week before the closing ... read more

  • Research, research, research!

    Sep 21 '07
    Pros: None. Stay with a local friendly broker.
    Cons: No face to face interaction. Lending Tree cannot resolve disputes.

    Summary: Let me tell you about our experience. We went through Lending Tree and were contacted by several companies. Be prepared for your phone and inbox to be inundated for at least two months after you have received your financing! The rates were all pretty ... read more

  • Terrible experience. I will not use them again.

    Jul 10 '07
    Pros: Different loan offers, good initial process, did ultimately lower my mortgage payments
    Cons: Confusing paperwork, poor communication, and a nagging sense that I got cheated

    Summary: I used LendingTree to refinance my mortgage in June, 2007. LendingTree is supposed to be an efficient, low cost, way to refinance. Their advertising says that they work with lots of lenders to find the absolute best deal for you. The ads imply that ... read more

    Summary: I decided to use LendingTree in hopes of receiving competitive offers from multiple banks for my business. This never happened. My personal information did not transmit over the internet at the initial application stage and for a week they assumed I was ... read more

    Summary: 04/05/07 I have just bought a house, and was in the process to shop for a mortgage and LendingTree was one of the companies I have sent my information to get a quote, since they have a partnership with Costco, and I am a BIG Costco fan, and of course, ... read more

  • LendingTree - never again!

    Feb 14 '07
    Pros: Mortgage was eventually refinanced at a good rate.
    Cons: Terrible customer service, extremely slow.

    Summary: I have used LendingTree in the past and have had great success and a great turnaround time. That was back when you would actually get three or four different lenders trying to compete for your money. That was over three years ago. Today, LendingTree ... read more
