GBLack of transparency and leaves you helpless When I refinanced, I initially accepted with LendKey because I was under the impression it was a fixed rate. Turns out that was not correct and now it has been steadily increasing every three months, I am not in the double digits of interest rates when I only accepted this refinancing because of the lower interest rates than my previous loan. Over the first year with them I paid over $12,000 and my loan only decreased by $3,000. Recently, I returned to school and went to request an in school deferment. The only option they provide is a forbearance which can only take place up to 18 months (shorter than the period I will be in school), and you are still expected to make some kind of monthly contribution to the loan. I feel as if though it will be impossible to pay off this loan ever with the continual increases in rates. I left Sallie Mae for this company because I thought the experience would be better, I was wrong.

GBStudent loan refinance The application process was fast and easy, and I got a much better rate by refinancing one of my student loans. When I did reach out via email, they replied in a prompt matter. Great experience overall!

GBExcellent refinancing experience It was very easy to refinance my student loan with LendKey, and I got a great rate. The payment interface is very easy to use, and on the rare occasion that I had a question, it was answered quickly and professionally. Overall, a great experience.

GBGreat Decision I refinanced my student loans with LendKey and I could not be happier. I was able to get a fixed lower interest rate, consolidate my private and federal student loans, and did it all from my phone. The best part is I was able to knock 5 years off my previous payment plan with the help of LendKey

GBVery Easy Company to Work With If I ever have any questions it is very easy to get in touch with someone and they can always answer my questions. I originally refinanced my loan in 2017 and then again when rates went down in 2020, an overall great experience.
