A regrettable downgrade

The new app is awful.

No Face ID, far worse UX (additional steps to see balance; immediately asked if you wish to logout, rather than do something useful, can’t set any notifications for transfers happening, transfers seem slower now (maybe no more Osko?).

If you want people to leave your bank, this is a good way to go about it. I say this as a 35 year old who had his savings account opened by a parent as a child.

Hi there, Please note that FaceID login is actually available on the app if you choose PIN or Pattern in the security screen when you register the app. If you choose Member ID only, FaceID login will not be available as an option. You can also set up a quick balance for one account if you want to have quick access to that screen. Notifications for transfers can be set up in your Internet Banking account. You can still choose Osko when transferring money via the app - just pick Osko instead of Standard payment from the "Choose pay type" menu. If you need further assistance, please call us on 13 61 91 or email us at info@australianmutual.bank.

4 digit access

Why can’t I use a 4digit pin ?
It says don’t use your birthday for the 6 digit pin ? Doh ! Just about everyone will their birthday if the only option is a 6digit password. If I use my card at an ATM and I can use 4digits why can’t I use 4 digits to access the same account on a phone. It’s annoying to have to remember another password.

Thank you for your feedback. We understand that changes aren't always welcome but with higher than ever online scams we have put in extra measures to protect our members. A 4 digit PIN can be used to create 10,000 different combinations, while a six-digit PIN can be used to create 1 million. If this gives our members better protection from any potential fraud we have done our job to protect them and that's our aim.

Bad terrible

Can’t even get into the app to start with. So that’s a great start, not! Seriously considering swapping banks now, gone down hill ever since the merge. Can’t do any of my banking on the app which makes everything impossible. Hopefully I can at least get in until I can open an account with another bank and transfer my money.

Thank you for your feedback. The app has encountered technical issues due to high demand on 28 Feb and 1 March. This was a result of the decommissioning of the old apps, but the issues have been fixed and the app is currently running without issues. If you need any assistance at all, please call us on 13 61 91.

Ugh

New app is slow and logging is is hassle.I keep getting error messages. But after awhile will work but not show my funds.The old app was so much better. And was more simple with the 4 digit pin. This is the final straw for me. I’m going to consider changing banks at this point. Which is a shame since I have only been with this bank my whole life.

Useless

The old app was a lot better. In the past 2 days I’ve had nothing but issues logging in. Online world but this app doesn’t. I’ve already had it reset.

Don’t bother ringing for transaction support when transfers don’t happen, Customer Service laugh at you.

If I could give a minus for app and service I would.

SK

New app hangs frequently. Poor layout. Old app (Sydney Mutual Bank) was much better.

No thumbprint login

I prefer the old app. There’s no iPhone thumbprint login any more. I don’t want to put in a 6 digit pin constantly. Layout was also better on the old app.

Response from developer

Hi Oniedia, Sorry to hear you do not like the layout of our new app. Please note that thumbprint login is actually available on the app if you choose PIN or Pattern in the security screen when you register the app. If you choose Member ID only, biometrics login will not be available. If you need further assistance, please call us on 13 61 91 or email us at info@australianmutual.bank.

Worst bank app ever

This rarely works and looks like it was designed by a five year old

Big improvement

This app is miles in front of the old one and allows me to manage my account more effectively when I’m on the move. Good job 👍
