CONSUMER WARNING
Over 140 BBB Complaints
Prosper is a peer to peer lending company that offers personal loans at low rates. These loans are unsecured, which means you do not have to put up any collateral (like a house or car) that could get taken away if you can’t make payments. Each loan is typically funded by multiple people all over the United States. In this way, Prosper is a marketplace connecting those who need a loan to those who have extra money to lend.
However, not everybody has had a good experience getting a loan through them. There remain a number of problems that borrowers continue to face.
When people get a loan at Prosper, they realize their interest rates are higher than they can afford. Prosper also charges an origination fee based on credit and you’re limited to a 3- or 5-year loan term.
