I'm at 71% and usually see a offer by now (between 65%-70&).
Posted 06-01-2023
I'm where you are at (minus the actual loan offer part.) Sale are up about 60% over a year ago and processing is up about 65%. All the other things are in the green.
I think most people's frustrations are that it's just not transparent and there isn't a clear goal to strive for. It is also disheartening to just be told the same quotes over and over. It comes across as uncaring and impersonal. Which if that's the case is fine, that should be conveyed to clear up misconceptions and so people don't get their hopes up. It would also come across as more professional to state those things (economy and such) from Square itself. It would let people know where they stand and can make appropriate decisions.
I am at 85% but no offer yet .
Have you received an offer? I’m at 85% now.
No not yet sadly. Still waiting and checking the dashboard every day.
Nothing yet... 100% paid for almost 2 months..
Is all the marks is green(good) ???
Finally got an offer
Sweet! I’m happy for you! What percent were you at? I’m just glad somebody did!
Awesome...good for you..
Just updating from our first post back in February. Still no offers... Been paid in full since Feb, all green lights and increased revenue by 30% from this time last year. Had 5 loans with Square so far, all paid within 5-6 months......... No offers as of 6/5/2023.... Ive had sporadic responses in regards to the Feb post and 95% of the people responding are in the same boat. Anyone else have any insight?
It's been a roller coaster that's for sure. I have finally seen a couple of people post last week they received an offer 1/2 of previous offers but on the whole most are in the same boat as you. All areas are good/great in the green and trending up in sales etc and still waiting. There is a post from last week that broke down their opinion of what was going on with the economy and lending institutions on the whole and how it's pretty much come to hault or extremely slowed down. Even though you and all the others are doing great and full steam ahead I am in the same boat been with them since 2015 never an issue offers between 74-78 % max paid off and I will be paid off this month and nothing either. All areas good and sales up 45% but nothing. I think I did go back and look and 12 loans roughly all in good standings. It just seems as though they are not giving out as they use to and it doesn't seem to be the business in general just imo.
Right after my post to you last week my offer came in. I too was at my highest percentage my offer was the same as my previous offer but my rate went down. I did choose to accept. If I scroll down the offers are coming in much faster than say Feb/March. I wish I had some magic words for you but trying to figure out why or when you will get it when all is good or great on your end I don't. I usually look at thread and the trends and it seems to be really picking up so that's a good sign. The % seems to be most are close to paying it off or it's been paid off (not for everyone) offers are about the same all over the place most seem to be about the same or lower, again not everyone as there are some with good increases. Trying to figure out their system I gave up honestly but it's encouraging to see more and more approvals and offers really picking up especially in late May and June so far.
I accepted mine after contemplating yesterday but it hasn’t approved yet. That makes me nervous bc it always approves within an hour. So now I’m gloom and doom. Maybe it’s normal now. How long did yours take to accept? With that said they sent me a reminder within two hours I still had an offer before I accepted. I hope it approves. Getting nervous.
Mine was approved in 10mins or so pretty fast I've never in my experience had a long acceptance at all but that's me and we are all different. My deposit took longer but it could have been because of the day of the week also. I saw 2 other post last week on here that it took them 2/3 days I believe for their approval and right after they posted boom it came through with no issues. All we can really do is keep sharing our own experiences and see if it helps others but the longer approval that doesn't seem to be out of norm right now. Good luck I don't believe any of those waiting did anything but hold tight and it come through. Good luck to you!
Congratulations on your loan. As for us we still haven't received a offer and for some reason remain ineligible even though we are good to go in every category. Hopefully we get a offer before the end of the week. Best of luck everyone.
Also- does anybody know if when you still have a little left to pay on the current loan but have a new offer pending acceptance, when you get an order in or I need to invoice, does the current loan still pull the payment? Does it screw up the pending approval?
I want to know the same thing, how’d it go for you guys?
Congrats, thats great news. Ill just sit back and wait for ours...and if not, we arent in dire need... Thanks for the update...
I received an offer two weeks ago at 90%ish paid off and two of my friends that have different types of businesses received offers recently. So I know the offers are out there. My offer was half of what my last loan was that I took last year.
Just a note all three of us do our checking/savings with Square now so not sure if that helps.
I got my largest loan in June. 77-% paid off. So almost at 90%. Any other places like this that help small business was.
Did you receive an offer? We’re at 84% never waited this long.
Paid off my second loan in December 2022, both were paid off in advance by months and months and still nothing. Grossed over 230k last year and nothing. So frustrating. All my markers are good, blend of new and repeat customers, no chargebacks or disputes. Not sure why? Could really use it before our season is full swing this spring.
