Ratings and reviews

Missing the ability to setup auto pay of credit card balances with a bank account outside of Scotiabank. I get that it encourages opening a bank account but I think it ruins the credit cards value due to the extremely inconvenient nature of paying balances in full. Missing a very standard feature hurts the app for credit card customers. I almost want to close my card due to this lack of feature.

Considering how often this app will, seemingly intentionally, charge all my pending charges, payments, bills, etc at once so that I drop into the red, and then immediately send a smarmy notification on email and on the app to sign up for the overdraft protection, I'm not very impressed. Overall it's a good app and well designed for the most part, but it seems like it doesn't matter what days I put my automatic payments on; I always get shot down into the red no matter how I do the math. Not cool

I regularly get error messages when I try to sign in saying something went wrong and they are working on. When I say regularly, I mean at least once, to several times a week. This is inconvenient when trying to send or receive money, or simply logging in to check funds. Links to scene rewards never work. The app also flags regular use of my card as suspicious activity, when purchases are clearly not fraudulent. Very poor quality app for such a prominent bank.
