Ratings and reviews

Good interface and was working fine initially until lately. If I want to make a transfer, after keying in the bank account details and my pin, next message I will see is that the acct no and name do not match. This I have tried severally with different acct and some of the acct I have made a transfer to before using the same app. I just don't understand and it's frustrating. Until that is fixed, I give 2 stars.

The app has a functionality issue. I've been unable to sign up. When I get to the step to type in activation code, my keypad doesn't pop up. I've done this numerous times, same result. This isn't a phone issue, as I've read someone's review here, too, having the same issue. Please fix this! We must not always visit the bank for every little thing!

The app is easy to use all round but I have one thing against it. Occasionally, when you're transfering to another bank, once you select the option to "transfer to other bank," the box where you are supposed to input acocount number expands and turns gray making it impossible to make a transaction. It's annoying and has forced me several times to using POS. It's been 2 days, I still can't make a transfer to other banks. This is very annoying.
