Ratings and reviews

Slowly becoming bloated, when I log into the app I want to do something - it's so annoying to log in and have some new feature pop up on my screen preventing me from doing what I want to do in place. The intrusive messages and warnings need to stop please. Edit: well an extra star to the devs for giving us the CSV format of the bank statement. It makes building your own budget tool much simpler. And thanks for responding when I posted here 🙂

WOW just saw the new stuff you've done on "paying beneficiaries" - it's awesome 💯 definitely more amazing than some of the other bank app's I.ve seen!! State of the art!!! Very impressive!! It is a great app. However some of the options aren't easy to find (that's my minus one star). But generally speaking; much easier & more visually pleasing than other bank apps I.ve seen & used. Great work guys.

App is becoming cluttered with too many things that has nothing to do with my personal banking experience. Eg. A cellphone simcard has nothing to do with banking. Eg. All the new switches and check boxes, which only have to be set once or in a blue moon, clutters the process of setting temporary card limits. Capitec used to be a simple and affordable experience. Simple is gone. I hope you will stay affordable.
