• Lifesaver: Many users describe Albert as a “lifesaver,” helping them out when they need it most.
• Always there: Reviewers appreciate that Albert is "always there," providing funds in times of need.
• Easy to use: Several mention the app is easy to use and quickly delivers funds when they're running low.
• Dependable friend: Some liken Albert to a "best friend" that's there in a pinch.

The dominant theme is clear: most users see Albert as a reliable and helpful app that's there when they need a financial boost, making it easier to navigate tight spots until payday.

Users report mixed experiences with the cash advance amounts available through Albert. Here's the scoop:

• Up to $250 possible: A few users mention being able to borrow up to $250, appreciating the quick and hassle-free access to funds when needed.
• Quick cash in a pinch: Many users have received advances of $50 to $100 almost instantly, highlighting the app's usefulness during tight times.
• Stuck at low limits: Some users express frustration at being limited to low advance amounts, like $25 or $50, even after repaying on time for months.
• Difficulty increasing amounts: A couple of users note that increasing their advance limits is challenging and slow, with one user seeing only a small $25 increase every few months.

So what's the bottom line? While Albert does offer advances up to $250, many users may start with lower amounts and may find it takes time to reach higher limits.

Even though Albert is a legitimate company, we found 60+ reviews published recently describing the service as scammy (for context, this is out of hundreds we analyzed). About 40 explicitly call the service a “scam”, “fraud”, or “thieves,” while others mention unauthorized charges or hidden fees that made them feel deceived.

Several users express concerns about difficulties in canceling their accounts or stopping unwanted charges, and some worry about identity theft or misuse of their personal information. Many also report issues with customer service, saying it's nearly impossible to reach a real person or get helpful assistance.

The overarching theme is that people feel tricked or financially harmed, often pointing to unwanted subscriptions, surprise fees, and an inability to cancel or resolve issues. Just a heads up if you're considering using Albert—you might want to proceed with caution based on these reports.
