Company: Upgrade, Inc. (FL)

My wife XXXX XXXX a senior citizen who is XXXX ) received a letter in the mail stating she was pre-approved { emphasis added } for loan of up to {$15000.00}. XXXX was in the hospital since XX/XX/2018, and was XXXX about 4 days later to a rehab facility, where she is currently. With XXXX 's permission, I went on-line to accept the loan offer, and requested a loan in the amount of {$12000.00} or {$12000.00}. Without the website giving me any interest rate ( as advertised ) it simply stated she was denied the loan. 

I contacted Upgrade on or about XX/XX/2018 expressing my dissatisfaction with their advertising practices. If one needed to " qualify '' for the loan, the the letter should state " pre-qaulified '' or " pre-selected '', vice " pre approved '', which I have also indicated to this " company ''. 

This company should have to refund consumers like my XXXX senior citizen wife no less the 10 % of the maximum purported " pre-approved '' loan amount ( in this case, no less than {$1500.00} ), due to what appears to be " false advertising '' for the sole purpose of obtaining peoples personal information ( such as SSN, and/or verifying mailing addresses etc. ). Conversely, the government ( US DOJ ) should file an action ( clas action ) against this company and/or others like it, for the damages it causes to undoubtedly thousands of consumers ( including the XXXX and senior citizens ) presumably on a monthly basis.
