Ratings and reviews

Initially, I was extremely pleased with the app as a whole. However, I was disappointed to discover that it can only be used while connected to mobile data upon logging in. This restriction is quite inconvenient. While I acknowledge that it may be for security reasons, it is worth noting that other large financial apps, such as Wise and Payoneer, are still accessible via Wi-Fi.

Telebirr was a great, easy to use and convenient app. But since the latest version (1.1.6.336), it has just gone bad. 1. Having to insert the sim card associated with the account to a device you are trying to log in from is the exact opposite of seamless and convenient service. Also inserting the sim card into the device is not enough that one needs to use the data from that sim card. 2. Can not log into telebirr while connected to wifi? That is just an awful UX. How inconvenient of telebirr!

I've never seen an app as inconsistent as Telebirr. The main issue is login—I can’t log in using Wi-Fi, and when I switch to mobile data, it says 'Connection failed, check your internet.' Even when my data is on the right SIM, it still asks me to insert the SIM or turn on data. It’s frustrating, especially when you’re in a hurry to pay. When it works, it’s smooth, but when it doesn’t, it’s the most annoying app, with unjustifiable errors.
