### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2023-12-22, version 1.9.2*

Dora was super easy to sign up for and very user friendly, I love that I don’t have to jump through hoops to get a bank account with a actual bank. They also have amazing programs to help get my credit back on track!

### 2/5 — App down

### 5/5 — Easy to use no hassle account

### 5/5 — Great experience!

*2023-05-12*

I recently used the Dora app and I was impressed with its features and friendly support. I had lost my card in a restaurant and was worried about my account security, but the app's freeze feature allowed me to quickly protect my account. I contacted the support team and Jeff helped me to solve the problem without the need for a new card. He was very friendly and patient, and went above and beyond to assist me. Overall, I'm very satisfied with this app and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a secure and convenient banking solution.

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2023-04-28, version 1.8.9*

My favorite banking app. So user friendly!

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2022-06-29, version 1.8.5*

Great banking app! Super easy to signup for an account and setup bill pay. Love that there’s no minimum balance and best yet, it’s free!

### 1/5 — Stay Away

*2022-04-22, version 1.8.0*

Had this account for a month. Just when I started to deposit money into the account, I wake up to an email the next day…saying my account has been closed due to suspicious activity. Glad I was smart enough to only deposit $0.33 to test the account. 

If you think you’ll use them, try a very small deposit first, just to test things. Glad I didn’t have my paycheck deposited because they would have stolen my money. 

Just beware. Glad I can share my experience to maybe help others.

### 5/5 — Dora

*2022-02-21, version 1.7.0*

I love this app so much it’s helped me so much financially!! And it’s also helped me save and I got verified so easy with social security.

### 1/5 — Just another money hungry bank

*2022-01-14, version 1.5.2*

I liked Dora fine at first, no issues. And then, I put the wrong pin in on accident twice and they froze my card without telling me. Super embarrassing and frustrating. Whatever. So I needed to deposit a $100 check, and I thought “ive done mobile deposit with dora before, I will just do it on there” and now for absolutely no good reason they’re holding my check for 7 days and customer service was super condescending about maybe I should have set up direct deposit- they wish. I would never trust them with that. Now my family won’t eat this week, ȶƕɐמΚಽ Ԁ🄋ʀＡ！

### 1/5 — Unable to load my data

*2025-04-05, version 1.9.22*

I don’t know what’s going on to Dora but they not giving me answers when I was waiting to get my money out for my rent. This is no good at all!.

### 1/5 — Stuck on loading

*2024-09-28, version 1.9.13*

When I try to log into my account it’s stuck on loading and keeps telling me to try again. I can’t even see my balance or anything . Please help

### 1/5 — Beware, don’t deposit checks

*2024-07-02, version 1.9.11*

They will make your account inaccessible and won’t communicate or tell you how to gain access to your funds

### 1/5 — You will likely lose your money if you use this app

*2024-06-18, version 1.9.10*

To everyone

If you have funds that you want to bank somewhere with, I would advise you to not use this app or this Neobank, because while US Alliance is in back of them, this particular bank is likely to do various moves such as calling your funds fraudulent, and you could lose your money, just as I have! I had an online friend send me somewhere around $8000, and when I spent some of it and I violated their long wait rules unknowingly, before you can use the money that is sent in your account, so they closed my account, then after I called them, they sent me a check for more than $3000! And finally, after 75 days approximately, I was sent a check which I received more than two months ago and have been attempting to cash it ever since, but I hadn’t been able to, so now I finally made a phone call again and asked for a real answer! Because they had been giving me various answers and obviously I had been given the runaround and a Check Cashing store that’s ready to cash it was also calling them and getting the runaround from them also, they finally told me after I insisted on a clear answer, oh, we’ve decided that the money is fraudulent so you won’t be able to cash the check! Why did they send the check in the first place if the money, was sent fraudulently? Why didn’t they just not issue the check and claim the funds were fraudulent and not going through all this effort and wasting my time and money trying to cash it and then they tell me at the end of this long set of attempts to cash it that is supposed to be a fraudulent check? If you’re a fraudster yourself, you would probably find a great home with this place, but for me who has little money to live on, I would suggest you take your banking needs elsewhere and don’t rely on these bunch of Crooks because they do not serve your best interests! Too bad that those big business super wealthy, elites protect crooks like these, thus they hide their reasonings and won’t reveal why they take various actions and expect us to have to suffer their lies, because otherwise I would take this lousy Bank to court and prosecute them to the fullest extent of the law!

### 1/5 — I deposited a check and it has been 7 days it hasn’t cleared

*2024-05-09*

I deposited a check and it has been 7 days it hasn’t cleared

The check was accepted and it been up to 7 if not 8 days and I don’t have my available balance to send.

Wouldn’t recommend

### 1/5 — Dora stole my money

*2023-09-24*

I can’t believe Dora Bank just took my money. I’m under review for no reason. I just have Dora bank just a few days. I will fight to get my money back. I can say Dora don’t offer ACH withdrawals or wire transfers. 

Don’t download Dora.

### 1/5 — Скам, покупают учетные записи без согласия клиентов

*2023-08-01, version 1.9.1*

Никакой ответственности за деньги

### 1/5 — This app is always down it’s been two days now and I still can’t login to my account

*2023-07-18, version 1.9.0*

This app is always down it’s been two days now and I still can’t login to my account

### 1/5 — Ridgid application process.

*2022-05-20, version 1.8.1*

Could not submit an application theres only one way to submit application and no customer support no other options.

### 1/5 — Do not use this as your main checking account.

*2022-05-09, version 1.8.1*

I went to the atm at my local CVS store to get cash . So I put my card into the atm and it said I was going to be charge $3.00 to withdraw my money I do not understand why. Because I went to the gas station which has the same atm like the one in the CVS. And I was not charge a fee at that one. To make the matters worse I put my pin in and it said it was the wrong pin. And I try changing it on the app which did not work. So Dora block my card and I have to call customer service to unlock it and change my pin. Dora need to fix their app. And also get a website for people  can look up account info there as well. So I will be using big banks and my local credit union cause at least I can get help faster there.
