Both Janelle and Ann A. were very helpful. Janelle listened to my concerns and quickly transferred me to the correct department/personnel. Ann A. was very informative in providing the information I required, and took time to carefully address and explain all my questions.

I highly suggest financing your home improvement loan through another company. I paid my loan off before my first payment was due. Their website was very glitchy that day but my account showed it was paid in full. I received an email later that said payment didn’t go through.
Months later I started getting weekly email and phone notifications requesting payment for a $15 insufficient funds notice even though the funds were in place. $15 for their website to not work properly?
There was poor communication through this process.
I realize it’s just $15 but it’s the principal behind poor customer service.

This company consistently tries to rip my mother off on loan payments she does not owe. This is the second time it has occurred. They prey on old people that do not to know any better and charge them more then they owe on monthly payments. When you try to resolve the issue they route you to a call center in India. This is a dishonest business, Do Not sign into any type of loan agreement with this company. They are predatory and try to take advantage of the elderly with requests for payments they do not owe. I honestly do not know how this company is allowed to continue operating.
Avoid Avoid Avoid.

This company is quite sketchy. I financed a home improvement project with them, paid it off in rather short order. I discovered that they are very lax on reporting to the credit bureaus. I disputed the balance they were reporting and they corrected it and then 2 months later , CHANGED IT BACK!! I paid it off to a zero balance and while their site says as such, they reported a much much larger (nearly the original cost of the project ) amount. Getting any kind of customer service is also an exercise in frustration. I guess I didn't give them the opportunity to collect enough interest off me before paying off the account. 0/10 do not recommend. Financing through Guido/the mob would be less aggravating.

Hi Kristin, thank you for sharing your experience. Our goal is to make our processes as transparent as possible and apologize for any frustration regarding your credit reporting.
Please keep in mind that while our internal systems update immediately upon payment, updates to the credit bureaus typically follow a monthly reporting cycle and can take 30–60 days to reflect on your credit report. Please contact our support team at [email protected] so we can review your account status and ensure everything is reporting accurately.
Very professional and patient.
Told what was needed and helped me with any questions I had.
Ann A was great!

Elder Abuse-Powerpay/Erie Home -Elder Financial Exploitation
After discovering Erie Home had arranged financing through Powerpay for our Grandmother (80 years old) for the total of $88,000 for a 1,400 Square foot roof replacement and two car garage (11% interest) 15 year loan and fully maturing at $181,000 this includes the 10k fee for the loan. We immediately requested a recision of the loan via Power of Attorney( via certified mail, phone and email, within the recision period). We also asked for no more contact to the vulnerable adult and victim... sure enough they are still contacting her and directly as well trying to collect on the loan. Highly suggest proceeding with caution. They did however send me an email stating that I need to contact Erie Home regarding the loan revision. Yet Erie home indicates they are a third party and have nothing to do with the lender/finance portal. Absolute sham!!!

We had our roof installed through Erie Home, but the financing was handled by PowerPay — which was not clearly explained upfront.
PowerPay was extremely difficult to deal with. Their online system never worked, forcing me to call every month just to make payments, often with long hold times and dropped calls — and eventually pushing me into setting up automatic payments just to avoid the hassle.
I consistently paid more than required, yet the loan terms remained unclear. When I paid off the balance through my bank (which sent more than the quoted payoff), I was still told I owed additional money.
I paid the final amount under protest just to close the account and avoid any risk to my credit, not because I agreed with the charge.
Very frustrating experience overall. Lack of transparency between Erie Home and PowerPay made this much harder than it should have been. I strongly recommend getting all financing details in writing before agreeing to anything.

No help for Employees who cant get in contact with employer.
Tried to get help to get my t4 and other information after my former employer refused to talk to me. After calling several times i was told they cant do anything to help and I just have to have my former employer help me (which i cant contact).

Hello Jon, thank you for the kind words! We are happy to hear that Ann A was able to assist. We’re so lucky to have them on the team—thanks for noticing the hard work they put in!
PowerPay was fine up until November 2025. After that, the company simply stopped sending me statements. I understand many companies are moving away from mailed billing to cut costs, but I never received any notice—no letter, no email, nothing—informing me of a change.
I tried calling and was placed on a wait list, but no one ever called back. When I tried again days later, the automated system still said I was in the queue. I also sent emails and never received a response. Fortunately, I was able to log in online and continue making my payments, but even then, my questions went unanswered.
Because of this complete lack of communication and customer service, I have to give PowerPay a rating of 1 star. If zero were an option, that would be more accurate.
