### 2/5 — Boss

*2026-05-29, version 3.34.1*

This app does help me budget it consistently confuses me. Just tell me I have only x amount and stop moving transactions to put my account into overdraft.

### 3/5 — Adding Outside Institutions

*2025-07-13, version 3.24.0*

Returning to the Bankfirst app to enter the small deposits from the outside banking institutions is cumbersome. I’ve attempted 3 times to enter the deposits & all 3 times I was  unsuccessful attempts because it times  out on me. Please assist.

### 5/5 — Enjoyable Banking fast and love the way I can transfer and check account..

*2025-03-12, version 3.21.0*

Thank you!

### 1/5 — Mobile Deposit

*2024-05-17, version 3.12.0*

The mobile deposit feature needs to improve. 

The image that is taken cannot be scaled and even though the camera is zoomed in, it captures an image zoomed out. 

It took me 10+ tries to capture an image that the software would accept.

### 4/5 — Possibly improving

*2024-04-24*

But still rife with bugs. As a Financial app, this is beyond unacceptable to most people in most regions of the country.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2024-03-15, version 3.9.0*

Several features are missing that I used from the old app. Half the time website or app doesn’t work.

### 3/5 — Aggravated

*2024-03-05, version 3.9.0*

Since y’all changed the app I can’t get my deposits to go through!

### 1/5 — Apps are supposed to be convenient and informative

*2024-02-22, version 3.9.0*

Yikes. Where do I begin? At least 25% of my deposits are rejected. Transactions repeatedly disappear at some point when they transition from pending to completed. One has to do the math in one’s head and remember all the pending transactions. And a simple transfer of funds from one account to another should be immediate - but often takes more than a day. It’s the same bank, for crying out loud. I seriously believe the people who built the ACA website designed this app. It’s forcing me to change banks.

### 1/5 — App

*2024-02-20, version 3.9.0*

This app is difficult

### 5/5 — App Experience

*2024-02-17, version 3.9.0*

Fantastic customer experience. They even gave me 10k extra dollars.

### 1/5 — Can’t transfer money from one account to another on my phone

*2026-06-11, version 3.34.1*

I tried to find help by using the “help with the app” section so I wouldn’t have to make it public but the “help with the app” isn’t user friendly or helpful.

### 1/5 — Bad help

*2026-03-25, version 3.32.0*

I can’t find my account that was opened yesterday. I did everything I was to do and waited 24 hours. This makes me so upset with on line banking.

### 1/5 — Awful

*2026-01-28, version 3.30.2*

The bank and the app are terrible

### 1/5 — Over draft and transaction

*2026-01-13, version 3.30.0*

Y’all allowed a company that I told yall to not let pull anything from account and also charged me service fees and some other fees that need to be returned. I need all of my money back in my account

### 1/5 — My experience

*2025-12-06, version 3.29.0*

This is the stupidest most complicated app and it’s so unnecessarily confusing fix it and bring back magnolia.

### 1/5 — Poor customer service—just stay away

*2025-11-22, version 3.29.0*

BankFirst just took over my bank. Couldn’t access one of my accounts. After multiple trips to the bank and multiple phone calls (kid screaming in the background on the calls) over a week, I was told it would be “sometime next week” before access would be granted remotely, with quite a bit of attitude. So sad my wonderfully little hometown bank is gone. They were wonderful.

### 1/5 — Mobile Deposit

*2025-10-06, version 3.27.0*

I deposited a check reference number KKZLQQMSLS2. I filled out all necessary information and it was declined. When I called to ask why I was told I needed to write for mobile deposit only. This information was already on the check and I initiated it. Why????

### 1/5 — Enjoying this on line banking.

*2025-09-24, version 3.27.0*

Great bank

### 1/5 — Check sending slow

*2025-04-04, version 3.21.0*

It takes forever for the bank to send a check. Three of the bills that I pay can’t be paid electronically. So the bank sends a check and wow!! The amount of time it takes it to reach the my creditors is unrealistic at best. I could crawl on my hands and knees and still get there a week sooner. Rant over. Please fix this process.

### 1/5 — Mobile Deposit

*2025-03-05, version 3.20.0*

Terrible. Just terrible

### 5/5 — Feedback

*2026-02-12, version 3.30.2*

I wish I could transfer more than $500 externally at a tmw.

### 5/5 — Easy APP

*2026-02-04, version 3.30.2*

BankFirst app is super easy/user friendly, not only that but BF has great fraud protection.

I’m not seeing more banking options… Ex. “Investing, Loans,”

Very nice app easy to use and personalize

### 5/5 — Deposit

*2025-11-11, version 3.28.2*

### 5/5 — Check out our YouTube “redbanks classics”

Great app check out our YouTube “Redbanks Classics”

### 5/5 — Online Banking

*2025-06-30, version 3.24.0*

It’s makes it so easy for me. Don’t have to leave my house. I can do it all from home. Love online banking, and if I do to much I. One day they make sure it’s me by protecting my account. Thumbs up to online banking BankFirst.

### 5/5 — Mobile deposit

*2025-04-30, version 3.22.0*

The deposit app will kick you out after taking the photo of back of check. You have to start over.

### 5/5 — Jim Walker

*2025-04-12, version 3.22.0*

Excellent service
