Ratings and reviews

I was very hopeful when Abyssinia Bank announced the launch of the International Virtual Visa Card through the Apollo app. However, the system is proving to be very frustrating. After many attempts, I finally managed to open a Visa card, but whenever I try to view the CVC and Expiry Date, it fails to display them. Instead, it continuously shows a 'We are experiencing technical delay. Please try again' error message. I strongly suggest that the bank properly updates the app;

I'm a developer my self but I tried 5-10 times filling same information to register. But I ended app not being able to register. It crashes multiple times, It doesn't retain information I entered, it logs me out in the middle of using the app. You need a dedicated testing department. For now I've uninstalled the app. Will try it after 5 month

The user interface of the app is very disappointing and low quality. It looks like it was made by a child. You wouldn’t expect this from an institution as large as a bank. You can do better, Abyssinia. Please add more functionality—make the account number easy to copy, and include the SWIFT code and other essential details. Take inspiration from foreign banks. Look at ING, Millennium, Revolut—there are many good examples to follow. This UI makes me feel embarrassed as someone living in Ethiop
