Even though Beem is a legit company, we found over 70 reviews published recently describing the service as scammy (out of more than a hundred we analyzed). About 50 explicitly call the service a “scam”, “fraud”, or “thieves,” while others mention unauthorized charges or data misuse that make them feel similarly deceived.
Several users worry about identity theft or personal data being compromised, with some reporting access to other people's accounts or unexplained account blocks. Many say they never received the promised cash advances but were still charged subscription fees.
The overarching theme is that people feel tricked or unsafe using Beem, often pointing to unwanted charges, surprise fees, app glitches, and an inability to cancel or reach customer service.
