Useless app, you take forever to register, and once registered, it is not easy to navigate through it. You can't even get the information on YouTube or website. Transfer and payment is one menu, when you press further, it gives you option to deposit money. How do you deposit funds while on the app? I have used almost 5 banking apps without any struggle, this one is a scam.

I have recently reported one unauthorised transaction with a Dispute, the transaction was frozen with my card being blocked, but to my surprised the transaction was released, the case was resolved without my knowledge due to lack of communication from this bank. I'm changing the bank immediately, switching my salary and spreading the w
