Ratings and reviews

This app is a total scam they have kept $75 in this weird account and I've been trying to get it back. I recently connected my Uber pro card to this account and I wasn't notified about any subscription fee and they took $14.99 I would like that back immediately as soon as possible. They have put me in the whole several times but this last one has really pissed me off. I would like my $14.99 as soon as possible my $75 that's in there as well. On the app.

I initially found Albert useful for budgeting and managing my finances, especially with the Genius membership at $14.99. However, the constant prompts asking for tips have become really frustrating. This app is already subscription-based, so it feels unnecessary and annoying to be asked to tip on top of a paid membership. Why ask for a tip when we're already paying? Keep this up, and I'll be jumping ship soon.

When I started up my acct. With Albert it was $10 monthly then they kept adding more things to my acct. Charging me $20 monthly fee they didn't ask me before they just started charging me. Not only that I get my check deposited in my acct every month but they don't except it for some reason so they won't give me the $200 for starting up my acct getting direct deposit. I have had nothing but a hard time with Albert. There's a lot more that is hard to deal with in this app. Not worth getting this.
