Yeah my apartment landlord posted papers on the building doors about these guys. I looked into it myself, signed up but made no commitment to the system. I've read a few reviews from people who tried it, all were nightmares for them. I had actually thought this business was where you can pay some of the rent now and payback later, preferably on a payday.
However, the logic doesn't add up since landlords typically want everything by the first day of the month when its due. So, Flex didn't align with my thoughts which honestly would've alleviated some pressure financially, but they cram everything to be due by within the month. It is like, why the fuck bother?
