### 3/5 — Does most things.

*2026-04-03, version 17.26.1*

Does most things, works most of the time. Pretty good for the majority of tasks

### 4/5 — Great app

*2026-01-08, version 17.26.1*

I like the security offered by going through my credit union! They have great customer service and could teach a few companies a thing or two!

### 3/5 — Glitch

*2025-08-03, version 17.26.1*

Good app but it has a new glitch where I can deposit in app, just says “requires full screen” with no other buttons to press or options… please fix this it’s a great app otherwise

### 2/5 — New web layout not user friendly

*2025-06-15, version 17.26.1*

I prefer the previous online banking layout where I could see my account and all the transactions for the previous month on one screen.

### 3/5 — E transfer

*2025-06-14, version 17.26.1*

I can’t schedule e transfers 
Don’t know why.

### 2/5 — Inconsistent App (great bank)

*2025-06-02, version 17.26.1*

Bank is great - staff are amazing. I wish I had better things to say about the app though: it’s extremely slow, unreliable with no wifi - even with good data packages; it inconsistently logs me in and out while using the app (I have “keep me logged in” checked); has weird errors (lists three credit cards when I have two); and has an extremely glitchy and rudimentary user interface.

### 3/5 — Consistency Can Be Good!

*2025-04-16, version 17.26.1*

But - not when many retailers tell me they “always have problems with the green Coastal Community debit cards. Our customers often have to insert their card and enter their passcode in order to pay for merchandise because the tap function just doesn’t effing work.”

### 4/5 — Quality app!

*2025-01-07, version 17.11.6*

Very easy to navigate and utilize this app’s features

### 3/5 — Fix app plz

*2024-12-22, version 17.11.6*

App stopped working for me iPhone 8plus.
It’s been happening for a while just an error screen

Over and over
Can’t post a pic but said 
App cannot be loaded at this time.

### 2/5 — almost never works

*2024-08-02, version 17.11.6*

this app gives me an error message EVERY TIME i open it, and it will continue to do so forever. Solution? open the app and close it about 3 times and it MIGHT eventually let you log in… or switch to another bank… like RBC!

### 5/5 — Bill paying  and E transfers

*2024-03-05, version 17.11.6*

Easily managed choosing accounts Not cumbersome. Etransfers from email are easier to receive.

### 2/5 — Stalls, have to close and then open again often.

*2024-03-01, version 17.11.6*

Poor app, amateur app.

### 5/5 — Review

*2024-02-24, version 17.11.6*

I love the credit union and the help I get. I often get frustrated with my lack of computer skills. The staff are patient, caring and take care to ensure I can access my accounts and create the result I want. Top to bottom, the organization is the best!

### 5/5 — Part of my home

*2024-02-22, version 17.11.6*

I’ve been with coastal Credit union since 1981 and have alway felt at home .
Thank you 😊

### 5/5 — Coastal Community Credit Union Online Banking

*2024-02-17, version 17.11.6*

Having to handle banking for others through two other banks it makes me so happy I deal with Coastal Community. The CCCU site is straightforward and easy to navigate for which I am thankful. Please don’t change it.

### 1/5 — Inconsistency

*2026-04-30, version 17.26.1*

Always glitchy when trying to sign in on mobile. Mobile deposits work intermittently

### 1/5 — Junk

*2026-04-18, version 17.26.1*

How does this app possibly have 4.6 stars? Compared to other banking apps this app is junk. Buggy, missing loads of features that other banks have, constant login problems, logs me out constantly, often the app is offline. It’s garbage

### 1/5 — Pain

*2024-11-27, version 17.11.6*

This app is a headache to use compared to other banking apps I own. Nothing saves like my Face ID and password, logs me out all the time while using it. Just an overall pain to use

### 1/5 — Junk

*2024-06-30, version 17.11.6*

How does this app possibly have 4.6 stars? Compared to other banking apps this app is junk. Buggy, missing loads of features that other banks have, constant login problems, logs me out constantly, often the app is offline. It’s garbage

### 1/5 — App crashes

*2024-02-23, version 17.11.6*

the app keeps crashing randomly and its very inconvenient for online banking. whats the point of having an online account if it isnt reliable

### 1/5 — Abomination of an app

*2023-10-17, version 17.2.26*

Glitchy is an understatement, good luck trying to complete any transactions within the app. I speculate that the developers decided to give users a 50/50 chance of success every time you log on. Worst app on my phone, bar none

### 1/5 — Problems with new format

*2023-08-29, version 17.2.26*

The new format is terrible. The constant shifting between pages every time an action, deposit, payment, transfer, is made is very hard on the eyes. It is also a constant interruption to the thought process, especially while trying to pay bills. In the older format all listed bills were on the same page. All a person had to do was choose which bill(s) they wanted to pay, then click pay bills. This new format is constantly shifting between the selected bill, the account info, the amount. Definitely not use friendly.

### 1/5 — E-transfer doesn’t ever work.

*2023-07-21, version 17.2.26*

Never works and I lose purchasing because of it

### 1/5 — Baffling.

*2023-06-22, version 17.2.26*

Trying to use your app is always frustrating. I run into this problem. Repeatedly when paying my credit card bill. The app refuses to accept any of my various passwords. Then I phone you. Wait on hold. Only to have someone remind me that my account goes in active after 90 days. I would waste a lot less time and be less frustrated if the app simply told me this in the first place. On top of this there appears to be a bewildering array of member numbers, personal access, codes, and code words. All this conspires to routinely leave me feeling… Baffled! I don’t like approaching your services with a feeling of trepidation and the expectation that I’m gonna waste more time than necessary to do something as simple as paying a bill.

I hope you will solve this problem. Lest I take my business elsewhere.

### 1/5 — Glitchy

*2023-05-31, version 17.2.26*

Has problems sending e-transfers and other money related issues. Just switch banks

### 5/5 — Service

*2025-12-22, version 17.26.1*

I have been very happy with the pleasant service which I have received whether it has been in person or on the phone,
I would highly recommend CCCU over any other banking institution, because I feel that “I” matter, that I am not “just a number”.  

To me, this is “Relationship Banking”.

### 5/5 — Claire

*2025-03-21, version 17.26.1*

Best App Ever!!!!!!!!

### 5/5 — Mobile banking

*2025-03-04, version 17.26.1*

App is really functional for almost all my banking needs.

### 5/5 — Love CCCU

*2024-12-28, version 17.11.6*

I have been a member of Coastal Community Credit Union ever since I arrived in Nanaimo in 1979…I tried a couple of other banking institutions  as well for a few years but dropped them for several reasons. I have never been disappointed with the various services I have used at Coastal Community Credit Union.

### 5/5 — Other banks

*2024-12-28, version 17.11.6*

The BC Credit Union I think is the mother of all our credit Unons her and are responsible for our on line services and technology. When I compare them to the other banks they are always years ahead! Yes I said years. Photo cheques instead of returning the actual check was the first start of it all and they started that pegs as much as 5 or 10 years before others! Keep it up, it’s wonderful!

### 5/5 — Good

*2024-11-30, version 17.11.6*

Good

### 5/5 — Can’t see whole picture

*2024-07-11, version 17.11.6*

I do not like the way the material is set up. I would like to see a payment an balance in the same frame. It is impossible to see the account balance or amount owing   
From now on I want a mailed statement where I can see everything on the same page. Also this nickname search to send this message is ridiculous.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2024-05-17, version 17.11.6*

I like the security offered by going through my credit union!

### 5/5 — On line help

*2024-04-08, version 17.11.6*

It’s so nice to talk to a local bank rep, please doNOTchange to some offline service from INDIA or some place where language is a problem 
Thanks Terry loyal for 40 years

### 5/5 — Love the credit union

*2024-04-03, version 17.11.6*

Thank you for all that you do everything seems to be working out really really well as long as I put in my numbers, correct I love the fact that I can take a picture of my check and it goes through in a matter of seconds and each transfers are my favorite. Thank you for not charging me to do all my transactions. I love this bank, if I could give you 10 stars I would
