I sent them an email and they responded right away with the correct amount of $64.62 in my new account – yay! now to invest!

@HID Light Dude: Hmm… strange. This offer should be good till December 31, so if I still don’t have the full bonus next week, I think you ought to contact Lending Club and ask them what’s up.

Thank you so much for this Stephanie! I’ve been looking all around the web and decided to finally start an account so I opened one up with your referral code (you have to press the lil plus sign and manually insert).

I linked my checking account, but just need to verify. I dont see the referral bonus anywhere though and it says I only get $40 for linking my bank account?

I’ve had a pretty good experience as an investor with Lending Club. I think your BK is the first I’ve heard about (from a blogger at least).

The successful investors with a product like Lending Club will be the ones that diversify AND invest a high enough amount. Even 20 or 30 notes isn’t enough of a pool to really be diversified.

I’m not going to say issues never arise with signing up for Lending Club, but yours is the first specific story I’ve ever heard about it. I’m sorry to hear you had a bad experience.

I tried to sign up for Lending Club late last week and have had nothing but problems since. I eventually had to call them to cancel my account since they do not have a cancel on their web site. First of all, they require both your bank account information and your social security number to receive the $64.62. The kicker is that their SSL security certificate is expired…

I had to argue with them over and over to just cancel my account and finally they did and are supposedly refunding the “small amount” (nearly $1) they used to verify my account. When Paypal verifies accounts, they actually deposit a couple cents. This place takes a dollar? If all you did was invest the $64 that this promotion gives you, then it would take months to make up that dollar at 7%.

That’s it? Just sign up with the referral code? No other catches?
