It would not accept any of the verification codes it sent me, so I couldn't even sign in. The foreign help line is also all in Korean, so that was another dead end. Edit: The bank clerk wrote my name wrong, so I can't sign in unless I missplell it too, but because it doesn't match the correct spelling on my ARC, I still can't finish logging in, and there is no way to fix the spelling in the app.

Hello. We apologize for the inconvenience caused by using Wabank. In the event of an authentication code error, the name registered in the carrier and the bank must match correctly to authenticate. If the same phenomenon is repeated when checking the carrier, please visit the branch and we will check it in detail. Thank you.

I love the updates version of this application. However, there is still difficulty in understanding many available options in app. I hope that company will provide the english version soon to facilitate their foreigner customers equally 🙂

Money transfer is made easy in this application. I loved the overall experience. It would be great if we get an option to change the app language to English.
