Recent bugs

In the past several months this app’s mobile deposit has become basically useless and can’t complete a check deposit without some sort of error. Also seems to always have issues when trying to redeem credit card points. Feels like they did some major “updates” to the app in the past few months and now older smart phones (eg my phone) are experiencing glitches and bugs. Extremely disappointing and frustrating, makes me consider closing my bank accounts with them all together.

Infuriating.

I have been with MFCU for many years. I started using their mobile app several years ago once I got my own bank account. I have never had such an abysmal experience with a banking app. The app consistently crashes. It fails to log me on. I have had so many issues just trying to check my mobile balance. Every other day they have some “internal error” that prevents the log in process from working. Quick balance never works in these instances because I have to log in to activate it from my settings, which I already have. MFCU is fine, they’re just another credit union, but I have never had such an unpleasant, infuriating experience with a mobile banking app. All I need to do is check my balance, please, would you just let me do that?

Terrible scrolling, great app

I brought this to your attention before, in January, and received a message back that it would be looked into. I find it hard to believe I’m the only iPhone user that experiences this and It's unbelievable that this glaring issue hasn't been resolved. The app has been updated for the Apple app store eight or 10 times since I last wrote in, for “bug fixes”, yet this one persists.
Trying to scroll through past transactions is very difficult to the point where it can become seriously frustrating if I'm trying to do anything quickly. Almost every time I touch my finger to the screen and try to scroll up or down through my transactions the app will open the transaction where I just touched, making me wait for that transaction to be opened just so that I can close it back up and try to proceed with my scroll. I often close the app in anger without even completing my task as a result of this annoyance and it makes me sad, because outside of this issue the rest of the app is quite good.
I look forward to Mission Fed keeping their word by looking into, and resolving this problem.
Thank you.

Please update for newer iPhones

This app is not optimized for use with iPhones that have the Dynamic Island. The back arrow and logout icons at the top of the screen are so close to the corners that it takes multiple taps for them to respond. Same with icons at the bottom. Please refresh this app so it doesn’t take so long to log out or perform other functions.

*Updated to 4 stars - thank you for fixing where the app’s most used icons are - now I can log out in one tap!

Awful Bank - Nearly Unusable App & Website

This bank will rob you of every extra penny they can if you’re at or below poverty. They have hidden terms & conditions that ensure you will always incur fees, have unwarranted, and without notification, reduction of your credit limit - ensuring you overdraft and incur repetitive fees and increased percentages of debt without realizing you have done so, and your limit won’t increase even if you’ve paid off and paid above minimum monthly for a decade. Their in-person location is about as useless as the login feature on their website & mobile app - both of which turn you away and send you elsewhere when you enter to perform whatever banking task you need to perform. If you have overdrafted or god-forbid made the mistake of only auto-paying the amount you believed was above your minimum & your fee increased without notification, you will be locked out of your account without access to customer service to get back in. They will literally try to prevent you from being able to pay off what you need so you can continue to incur fees.

Credit Unions vs Banks and S&L’s

My last major was International Business Management. My Accounting Professor who wrote text books for Wiley ( University Texts ) scolded me for telling him I opened an account at Wells Fargo. He then personally lectured me on the reasons for his angst with me. Not only were I not paying attention to his lessons I went and did the unthinkable for a Business major, I got a Bank Account.

A Credit Union is the only place you want to put your money. You can use it from there for other purposes. But do not ever put your money into a Bank. And why in the world a Savings and Loan when you could have a Credit Union instead?

And if you are anywhere you can do Mission Federal Credit Union you are doing good because it’s one of the very best out there.

If you don’t believe me, ask an Accounting Professor.

Wilde, it is great to hear your experiences with Mission Fed have been positive. We enjoy working with our members every day and look forward to the next time we can serve you.

AMAZING BANK. Terrible app.

Mission Fed is the best bank you could ever have, but the app is a NIGHTMARE. Rarely able to log in or even glance at my “quick balance” when logging in is the issue. App ran great just a few years back, but now it’s unpredictable and extremely buggy. Only way I can use the app without it glitching is if I were to delete it and redownload it which takes sooooo much time. Really hope the app goes back to the way it worked before. Other than that, when the app works, it is reliable and easy to use.

Confidence in Mission Fed

I’ve been a member of Mission Federal credit Union since the early 70s that’s a long time. It has never disappointed me. They continue to have great rates and there offices are close to all. I have a lot of confidence in Mission Federal credit Union. Thank you.

Was bad, now at least stable

Was crashing once a day, now it is not crashing.

Has the basics but looks old. Fire the design team, do something modern and add features. This is 10 years out of date and has me using it less than my other bank.

Best credit union ever

Before I started doing business with Mission Fed I was always being told that my direct deposits hadn’t been deposited on time so because of that I would be forced to pay late fees because my checks were dated before it was deposited. Even when the money was in my account because the checks were dated before what they said the deposit was, I still had to pay. If you bank at Bank of America run, every month my account would be hacked and then the fees would come rolling in. I found accounts that I never initiated. It was very hard for me to have any kind of credit because of all the charges, late fees and so on and Wells Fargo wasn’t any better then I went to Mission Fed since then I have very good credit excellent credit I even have a retirement account without Mission Fed. None of this would’ve been possible so again I say if you’re with Bank of America or Wells Fargo run run away as best as you can.
Thank you Mission Fed you’re the best and you’re stuck with me for the rest of my life. I even brought my kids to you and they are pleased as well.
