### 2/5 — Slow and temperamental

*2020-02-05, version 1.2.2*

About 60% of the time I attempt to log in and type my pin I’m stuck with a 30 second buffering period and a log-in failed notification.
 Pretty annoying to say the least, love this bank but disappointed in its technology and account accessibility.
 Hoping this is just a flaw of the update and that it’ll be fixed soon.

### 2/5 — No tablet interface?

*2019-08-24, version 1.2.0*

Looks to have been designed specifically for iPhones. App does not scale to fit screen and looks like it it emulating an iPhone. Uninstalling and using the web version.

### 3/5 — Functional app

*2017-06-17, version 1.0.1*

I like using this over the web version. For those having troubles logging out; I have a pin setup for my login and the app logs out as soon as you close it requiring the pin again. 

My issue is the opposite. I would like the app to stay logged in... at least for a small period of time so that I can quickly close the app and check bills from my email etc when I close the app it requires the pin again and I have to navigate the bcu app back to where I left.

### 2/5 — No log out!

*2017-04-08, version 1.0.1*

Can't log out!!
The pretty photos make it hard to read your details and distracting. 
Not really feeling it with this app

### 3/5 — Can't log out

*2017-03-13, version 1.0.1*

Good app but can't log out on an iPhone. My kids have a Samsung phone and are able to log out on it. This is concerning.

### 2/5 — Good and bad

*2017-01-21, version 1.0.1*

Don't like not being able to log out. Don't like not being able to see historical balances; ie the balance after each transaction. I like to see how much money I had left over from last pay. The screen is clean, clear and easy to navigate though.

### 2/5 — Would like to be able to log out!

*2017-01-13, version 1.0.1*

Functional app, easy to use, can quickly view account balance. 

There doesn't seem to be a log out option though which I don't like & will likely lead to me deleting the app since I feel like my account isn't very secure if anyone can access my bank accounts from my phone just by opening the app (for example if my phone is stolen).

### 3/5 — Good app...but...

*2017-01-12, version 1.0.1*

Good app, much better than the old one....but how do I log out when I'm finished using it?

### 1/5 — Doesn’t want to work in Peru

*2026-07-24, version 3.12*

This app has caused me many issues whilst travelling in Peru. The bank really doesn’t care that it had issues and has locked us out.
Might get back to us in 2-3 business days.
Don’t use the app or the bank. It has gone down hill over the last 20years at an alarming rate.

### 1/5 — Will not load

*2023-09-07, version 3.4*

App will not load and I am unable to log into my account

### 1/5 — When its working it’s great!!

*2023-06-28, version 3.3*

Not sure why but the app stalls before login, or just lingers while logging in.

I hope the app service improves.

### 1/5 — Don’t use the app

*2021-04-09, version 2.3*

I don’t need to do online banking often, but when I want to make use of the facility it must work. 

Unfortunately it does not always provide the information I require. I am forced to login repeatedly. This app is amateurish and a pain. 
And at the height of my frustration a window pops up asking for
Me to rate the app. 
Well there it is. Poorly written app that doesn’t do the basics well.

### 1/5 — Changing banks poor app

*2020-10-27, version 2.0*

App is so hard to use after update seriously changing banks because of it

### 1/5 — Annoying

*2020-06-03, version 1.2.2*

Would be good if this app functioned as intended. But it doesn’t, this app is painfully unreliable and inconvenient when it comes to internet banking..

### 1/5 — Apple Pay

*2020-04-28, version 1.2.2*

Would be nice to be able to use Apple Pay 
Why is it not supported

### 1/5 — Please solve the problem!!!!

*2017-11-03, version 1.0.1*

When you try to pay to others (transfer founds) you can’t see what you a writing, you can’t see the amount it’s gets covered up.
Please fix it. This problem occurred just with the last update.
Thanks

### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2024-04-16, version 3.6*

I’ve been using App for a number of years. Have never encountered any problems, even problem free updates. I have just updated App, and can’t get it to fully open. It opens then crashes. It doesn’t even get to sign in stage.

### 2/5 — Slow

*2023-09-22, version 3.4*

This app is so very slow to respond.  Also I’m not a fan of having to slide to find the arrow to make a payment.

### 5/5 — Best bank ever

*2025-01-13, version 3.8*

This bank is better then any other bank and I’m lucky to be a member of BCU

### 5/5 — Seriously impressive App

*2022-10-20, version 3.0*

I recently changed banks to BCU for a better service experience and this App is like the icing on the cake. 
So easy to use and so feature rich that the team who put together this amazing piece of kit need to get an award. I would find it hard to change banks just based on the app alone. Well done team

### 5/5 — Love the new upgrade

*2020-12-23, version 2.1*

This app is great now. I love all of the functions. It’s user friendly. Well done

### 4/5 — It’s ok

*2025-09-10, version 3.10*

Not awful. Nothing special. Simple interface. Could use a few less screens and buttons for simple transfers.

Really needs a visual notification for when you’ve met the criteria to unlock the bonus rate on the boss saver. (Just copy how ING do it.)

### 4/5 — Good banking app

*2024-06-14, version 3.6.1*

It’s good but way too orange and bright. Need to be able to set a dark mode.

### 4/5 — Straight forward and easy to use.

*2023-03-06, version 3.2*

A lot easier to use than some of the other banking apps. The quick view hasn’t been working for a couple of weeks though.

### 4/5 — Pretty good

*2022-09-19, version 2.8*

Reasonably straightforward. Apple Pay is nice. The app is easy to navigate and doesn’t have any glitches or annoyances. Fast transfers. Pretty good.

### 4/5 — Activate new cardiac

*2021-06-15, version 2.4*

Great app but activating a new card on the app is non existent.

### 3/5 — It’s Pretty Good

*2025-12-01, version 3.11*

It works and is clear but I agree, it needs a visual confirmation when you have met the monthly criteria.  It’s much easier to use than the other on-line bank app I use.

### 3/5 — Mail

*2018-04-30, version 1.1.1*

Hello I would like to see secure mail added to the app so we can email and be verified for banking enquires
