Ratings and reviews

I just want to add that if you punt on the app, and choose to use the website instead, on a PC it frequently fails. Either you have to stop your VPN (just when you need it most for financial transactions) or you're faced with multiple "security checks", sometimes as many as five or six. And with NordVPN, at least, it detects an improper certificate, and thereafter you can't log in whether the VPN is on or not! Customer support is always level 1, with no way to escalate.

The worst banking app I've had the displeasure of using. Between the lack of purchase alerts and the discrepancies between the in-app alerts and the statements and documents. I don't know which is accurate. I have purchases that aren't on the statements and documents that I know I made, and I'm surprised it can tell me what my daily balance is, considering it almost never tells me when a purchase goes through unless it's online.

By far the worst banking app I've ever encountered. I'm seriously taking my accounts to a different bank because of this. Doesn't matter which day or time of day, 99.9% of the time it takes 5-7 attempts to log in, with either the password or biometrics. It constantly says " uh oh l, that didn't go as planned". No VPNs, not on wifi, it's literally every time I use it. Fix it or I'm out.
