Reviews of Varo Bank

Used to be almost perfect & amazing, was the best free fastest mobile banking app

Fast simple cool designs absolutely free & fast with safe credit building and so much other features.
BUTTTTTTTT the recent updates have ruined the banking app, I might have to start using one of my other 12 free mobile banks I have…. Unfortunately it’s sad. The long load times now are crazy, I can’t log in, it keep saying “Our wires got crossed we’re working on getting this fixed” which is so annoying and I never had this issue or any other issue with this app until a couple months ago or the latest updates actually and it’s so annoying. If this isn’t fixed soon I’m done using this bank I have been loyal for years for this?!?!? On top of you gotta make $2,500 and so much more to get benefits or access to money or borrowing just a decent amount. Other apps, competitors such as Chime have been updating their app to have way more better features including way less deposits required for benefits, access to paycheck early even if it’s not the entire thing and with low fees, low borrow fees, faster credit building, same safe credit building options. It’s really unfortunate to see this app go down hill, become slower and have technical issues, been using for like 4 years and I’ve told over 30 people about this amazing app, but if these issues aren’t fixed it’s not as good as it once was. All the deposits are almost twice other banks to get benefits or borrow and the borrow fees higher too.

Do NOT use this company!!

I have been with varo bank for about 4 years now and they are NO Good!! Someone wrote me a $12 check years over two years ago now and they stop payment in the check. I covered it and ever since then I can not send money to anyone nor pay a bill out of my acct. So I can’t use there varo to anyone option and will never be able to either as they can not override it they say. NOW someone hacks my acct and money is fraudulently taken from my acct. I file a dispute. Now I am told I can not get the provisional credit because I did not find the issue within 12 days of it being used and once again they can not override it!! So my acct is negative because they over drew it, an option I am not supposed to have anyway! So now I have to wait for 90 days for this dispute to be settled and they shut down my card but sent a new one with the same number, that’s a lot of help, and because my acct is in the negotiate it’s going against my credit score! I ask for a corporate number and they don’t have one they are allowed to give me!. I have been with them for years and they do NOT take care of their customers and their is Zero protection they give to you or your money. Don’t trust their advertisement because sue it is a lie. Our money is important to all of us because we work hard for it. Don’t let this company keep you from YOUR money! DO NOT USE Them! You will regret it just like me!

Would give 0 stars if I could

Where to start? I banked with Varo for years. It was such a huge hassle always getting my money - can’t take cash out of ATMs, can’t transfer anywhere online, I think they don’t even have a savings acct option …..
I eventually had to get a “real” bank account with BMO just to be able to access my own money on a regular basis when I needed it.
My biggest problem is I submitted a dispute for like $30 for a scam business that never sent me the product. After reaching out to BBB and giving Varo all the info they needed, they still wouldn’t give me back $30. This is not a huge charge. This is $30. Literally …. Varo are you broke ?
So in calling and asking for assistance with this dispute, it’s basically impossible to get anyone on the phone. I had to call 22+ times just to reach a human being. I get it, we all hate phone calls but when I need to speak to someone, I need to have that option as a customer of the service. So finally when I FINALLY got a human being, he tells me I can’t even cancel through him! I have to physically cancel online which is exactly what I wanted to avoid because how am I going to get the rest of my money out of the account now?
It’s just another scam company. Will definitely be reporting to BBB - they can go to the same list as the ones they wouldn’t approve my dispute for. Scammers
