Always a problem

published

Haven't been able to sign into my account for over a week. Can't even check my account and will be very angry if they try to charge a late fee as I can't access my account due to an error on their behalf.
Not the first time I've encountered this issue.

Avoid Zip Pay

published

Obstacles just about every step of the way.

It was so much better before, being able to pay off shops directly without the 'middle man' (i.e. international companies such as Zip Pay) limiting us and causing unnecessary stress. Zip was also too invasive of privacy and required too many personal details. Uncomfortably so. Maybe if enough people decide against using Zip, retail outlets in general will see value in returning to simple customer-to-seller payment methods?

In the end we decided to go with a low-rate credit card...and we have always decided against a credit card before now, so that's saying something!

Save yourself the hassle, give zip the flick!

easy to spread payments

published

have found them very accessible easy and easy to manage in the budget, big or small you choose the payments - found excellent for gifts and needs and work in the budget- the only thing to be able to contact would be nice if ever have an issue.

Not very customer friendly

published

I enjoyed having a Zippay account for the convenience,
and was pleased with the service,
Until I had to query a gift card purchase where I had not received the Gift card I had purchased,
My account was sent to a locked state by the customer service representative and I had to make several phone calls to have myself verified and have the account unlocked, at my own expense all for something that I had already paid for and simply was asking to have emailed to the address noted on the account.
I will never use or recommend Zip to anyone.
Afterpay or Latitude are way better options.

Terrible, terrible alternative to a universally superior Afterpay

published

Do you love getting told your password is incorrect right after you've changed it? Do you love getting automatically charged in full for your purchases through Zip? Do you love having to verify your account by logging into 4 different accounts every single time you want to reset the password you just reset? Do you love trying to buy something through Zip in-store only for Zip to tell you the currently active code is incorrect, as you stare at it on your phone? Do you have a soft side for terrible user interfaces? Do you love getting logged out of the app every time you try to search for stores that, for some reason, still take Zip? If you have an IQ under 30 and enjoy supporting dodgy, scuffed businesses, then this is the app for you.

well thanks for responding but I think if you are going to ask for photo id it should be done in the initial application not when you have been approved and made a purchase bit hard to do photo id in a store without wifi

Debit trap - Other credit products are better value - $6/ month on the default $350 approval.

published

Tried to debit my account for more than the monthly minimum, no way to speak with customer service. Email only (ignored) no phone number to call. No explanation, website and direct debit values are different.

Dodgy as recommend afterpay all day of the week

published

Had to pay way more than I spent even though I made extra payments. Poor customer service haven't gotten back to me for weeks now so they can charge the extra monthly fee from me. Very dodgy doesn't recommend at all. All the advertisements about interest free repayments!!! Crap. Would recommend afterpay over this dodgy company any day.

The actual Service itself is good, however the customer service is terrible

published

The service itself is very good, heaps of options, easy to use app, and I love the flexible repayment options as someone who gets paid monthly. Just such a pity their customer service is terrible if you ever have a problem. Might as well have a robot on (it might be actually) just stock standard replies not actually reading your issue and responding accordingly, no help whatsoever. It’s really put me off!

I Have been with Zip Pay for over a year now and found them to be a great option for buying things that I need last month when they brought out paying your Qld Rego it was unreal so last month I jumped on and payed one of my car Rego never had a problem this month I find out that they aren't gonna doing it anymore a lot of Qld customers will be very disappointed as it is a handy and at this time of the year it is a necessity and with 2 cars I needed it but that's not right as all other states are getting their Regos played for and Qld aren't very disappointed in that and a lot of other Queenslanders will be too

I have used Zip Pay a number of times, never had a problem. It has made it easy to budget as I have set up the payments to hit on the days money is in my account. I do prefer Zip Pay over other lines of credit available, I've been such a good girl, my limit has increased. Love it really.
