*2026-07-29, version 5.0.7*

I enjoy using Wema bank since 2019 most especially as I can do everything with my phone without thinking of going to the bank even if there is issues I can fix it with my phone 
But you people should try debiting stamp duty multiple times in a month and also unnecessary transfer fee 
Thank you

Dear people of the world, this bank is fraudulent, this bank will drain your energy, make you mad and stress the hell out of you, avoid it like a plague, it’s easy to put your money in it but getting it out will frustrate you to the point where you’d start considering to smash your phone.

### 1/5 — Debit restriction

*2026-08-05, version 5.0.7*

I added money in my account and it got suspended I've uploaded everything they asked but still it says my account is been linked to another Alat but this is my first time opening this bank

### 1/5 — The new update is rubbish

*2026-07-03, version 5.0.6*

The app didnt give any pior notice for an update, i almost got stranded yesterday, even after the update, the app didn't still allow me to login till now, meaning i'll have to go to bank to reslove it, for me who's always busy at work , how would i get the time. I don't think the heads of this very nonsense bank have anyone advising them sha because i am going to close my account with them and i'll make sure my friends and everyone i know do them same too

### 1/5 — Charges

*2026-06-12, version 5.0.6*

Omo I sent 1500 first from my sporty I con send another 500 omo your app comot 1100 as charges ni oo leave me with 900 i can’t even do data wey I wan use ham do damn it really hurts a lot

### 1/5 — Review

Not okay 👎

### 1/5 — Scam bank

*2026-05-26, version 5.0.5*

I couldn’t login to my bank any more, they are scam don’t use it

### 1/5 — Unprofessional

*2026-05-14, version 5.0.5*

Why would I credit my wema account and not see any alert for over 8 hrs and counting 🤡🤡

### 1/5 — Worst bank app

*2026-05-13, version 5.0.5*

The worst bank app I have ever come across since I have been using bank account

### 1/5 — Authentication issues

*2026-05-09, version 5.0.4*

Very useless app and bank!!! Hard to authenticate!!😡

### 1/5 — Really stupid

*2026-04-24, version 5.0.4*

Is this a bank app or a selfie app? Why does every interaction require a “liveness” selfie every time? If you can’t make a secure app and you need a camera view of your customers every time they interact with the app maybe set up a banking hall and request physical visit so you can verify the person doing the transaction is the account owner. This is 2026 and this type of pedantic incompetence is so sad to see

### 1/5 — Bad

*2026-04-17, version 5.0.4*

The app is now difficult to operate, several taps on a particular function before it will come up and I thought it was my phone but other bank apps are functional fine then I even updated the app still the same

This is quite a nice app. Makes banking easier

### 5/5 — Love the App, Please Add NGX Stocks

*2026-07-19, version 5.0.6*

The new Alat app is sleek and offers a beautiful experience. However, it only allows purchases of U.S. stocks. Please add NGX stocks or enable both markets together for a more complete investment option.
