Ratings and reviews

Good app. If you connect your account don't think you will get it right away.. I've had $160 stuck between both my accounts (This account and GO2 bank) and they said at least 10 days to process it! So they have been holding my money for almost a week now! Other than that I like this app but I'm going to close my account over this one. I am not a happy customer at this point.

This account is way too much of a hassle to log into when you use it on a regular basis I HAVE TO HAVE A CODE SENT EVERY SINGLE TIME! also it's really complicated to get linked to any other accounts, especially the payday advance apps. I have yet to find even one that will link to it successfully. It's a headache... Their customer service is also only open until like 6:00 p.m. so if you need anyone after your S.O.L!!! THEY'RE LUCKY I GAVE THEM THE STARS I DID! GET IT TOGETHER SPRUCE!!!

WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS APP...EVER!!! Horrible app. Completely useless. If you transfer money from an external account to spruce you have to wait 7 business days to access the money. So the app is useless in my opinion if you have another bank account. Why would you want to Make a transfer from one account to spruce and not be able to access it for that long. When in reality you can access it right now at your other bank. Would give zero stars if that was an option.
