Ratings and reviews

Works well. I get my paycheck 2 days early as advertised. A nice little surprise is the simplicity of the app. Everything is self explanatory and fairly easy to find. I like how purchases are categorized and that it lets you mark purchases in categories yourself. I actually quite like it a lot. There's a couple bugs/glitches here and there but they typically fix themselves after closing and reopening the app. I quite like it for the simplicity alone. With more time, it should only get better. ❤️

I first got this app and the card for my tax refund. I liked the setup so much I used it to get my paycheck. No problems whatsoever....til today. I log in, email, password, and then a screen says nice let's set up your account. At which point it takes me right back to the log in screen. Rince and repeat. Please fix ASAP Update: Thinking it was a problem with the app, I go straight to the website. No luck, it's pulling the exact same thing. So whatever the problem is, it's on y'all's end.

Issues issues and more issues!! Every single weekend our banking goes funny. It shows duplicate charges, it will show 1 in pending and 1 processed for the exact same thing which has caused over drafting more than once. I tried the chat option and calling in. The woman on the phone wouldn't even allow me to complete a sentence without interrupting me. After about 10 minutes of her trying to talk over me. That was last week. This week same issue!! I THINK IT'S TIME TO CHANGE BANKS!!!
