Lots of bugs and crashes

historically, a very poor app. Lots of bugs and crashes, inability to reach certain information, inability to send messages when trying to submit a request. Very frustrated every time i use it.

Awful

The app doesn’t work majority of the time, even after the updates. They also don’t approve 99% of the submitted claims. I’ve tried to resubmit reveipts multiple times and each time, you get a different reason stating they need the date or provider name when it’s literally right there on the receipt??

Worst App Ever

There are so many functions that do not work correctly. I can’t even send a support request. Error. Error, Error. The worst!

Frustrating!

Constantly getting declined for legit reimbursements! It’s my money! Why are you making it so hard to earn back?!

Version 5.3.0 stinks

When you request reimbursements, the new version (5.3.0), does not allow Health type service and requires searching of service to see if it’s reimbursable but there’s a glitch when I use my device (iPhone 16, iOS Version 26.2). This app was never an issue before when submitted reimbursements.

Bad update

I just updated my app and can no longer move past the login screen. Just a black page.

Confusing

The most difficult app I have ever tried to use. Even the people at basic couldn’t tell me how to make a payment

Reimbursement Services Non Functional

Some reimbursement services become impossible to solve regardless all information be attached.

Easy and Quick

Such an easy app to use and get things done. I’m glad they make it easy to submit reimbursements for FSA expenses. I’ve never waited more than 24 hours for the reimbursement to hit my account.

Response from developer

Thank you for your positive review. We appreciate knowing that the BASIC Benefits Mobile App is working so well for you!

Useless

I can never log in. Once I verify my account with a text it always tells me something went wrong. I don’t even understand the point in them having an app if it does t work at all.

Customer service

Customer service is the worst

County government member

Terrible service that denies claims even ones that have been doctor authorized for years. No consistency- I’ve proven every instance medically substantiated but only after stress and make ch time diverted from my family & work.

Always Denies

They always deny and ask for receipts constantly. I believe they do this on purpose. They forget this is my money. I’m an adult and know what a covered expense is. Can’t wait to get it of this plan next year.

Always something WRONG!

I am trying to log in to my account. The verification code was sent and all it says instead of logging in is “SOMETHING WENT WRONG”…come on man. I can’t submit ANYTHING!!!😡

Issues all over

App lacks functionality, it’s hard to find denied reimbursement requests, and reasoning for decline that is provided is not clear. Beyond the app, the company is difficult to work with, and support request system does not work.

Unhappy

I just need a mailing address for reimbursement of an insurance payment and can’t find it on this site. Your phone system is even worse.

Costumer service is really bad no one follows up

Still waiting to get help on a transaction costumer service never follows up. If I could give no stars I would

Can’t login

Updated the app and added more bugs. Doesn’t even recognize my account anymore. I have to login on a computer only

Company in Question

This company is very hard to deal with. They seem to question receipts for the purpose of not wanting to pay the amount. I had all things in order and the reimbursement was denied 3 times because they said the date of service was not on the receipt. It definitely was and the credit card receipt had the same date but it was still questioned. I have spent hours on this and it should take ten minutes. Be very leery of this company.

Customer service threatens customer

A customer service supervisor threatens me that they will report all my FSA claims to IRS so that IRS will audit me.

That tells a lot of them!
