No longer available in Sydney (since 2021)

Despite the latest update to the app being 10 months ago, the description for the app still states that it is available in Sydney.

I was trying to remember why I had deleted the app, so I reinstalled it and it was immediately obvious why - you’re instantly greeted with a message stating that Beam Wallet is no longer available in Sydney since 2021, but they’ll be back in 2022 to provide an update. This comment is still the latest update showing as at August 2024.

I see other comments saying they’ve had trouble having their accounts deactivated - I’m off to start that process, so hopefully I can actually deactivate.

TLDR: don’t bother installing if you’re in Sydney. It’s not available.

Disappointed

I was quite happy when I first found this app as a replacement for an old one that has been discontinued. But it seems like each time I to try to use it, it stops my schedule before even one activity has been completed. When I go back into the app, it’s like I didn’t even start the schedule to begin with, making it useless to me (and I know I started it because I marked several things as “complete”.)

Scam app

Took out $1.13 out of my account when i made an account. It is a scam app and hasn't contacted me back after i contacted them. Do not get this app. You can see people who experiences similar things below.

SCAM app - took money from account

I downloaded this app and it immediately charged money from my card without a purchase - fraud app!!!

Charged for no reason

You charged me 1.33 euro for no reason and my bank charged me for foreign operation 0.02 Euro, that is not acceptable.
