### 2/5 — Customer service not responding

*2023-12-05*

I’m trying to contact customer service team but no one answer my phone calls

### 4/5 — Unable to login

*2022-01-20, version 3.0.1*

Hi for the last two days i am unable to login to this app. I am not sure whether it happened after the update. Request you to please check and resolve the issue.

### 1/5 — Stupid App

*2021-09-17, version 2.1.5*

Never ever try this app even if it gives promotional offer. There is no such a stupid food delivery app in the UAE with lots and lots of bugs and no filtration to  choose restuarant. It shows all restuarant in dubai even 35km away! And most of the restuarant  in 10km range shows doesn’t deliver to the location! Lots of crash and bugs. Just tried 10AED meals and nothing works out!

### 1/5 — Privacy

*2021-06-29, version 2.1.1*

Do not download. Buggy app that offers you no way to close your account, as the supposed automatic deactivation after 90 days also does not work.

ETA: I have been in touch with customer service and they have been of no help. If you care about data privacy, stay away.

### 1/5 — Bugs all over

*2021-06-02, version 2.0.0*

Nothing works it seems. Tried a lot just to top up nol card from my existing balance, but nothing goes through. I can’t even report the issue to them using their in app contact.

### 1/5 — Could not place order

*2021-03-08, version 1.1.6*

Wasted quite a lot of time and effort trying to place an order through the app still couldn’t place the order. Very unprofessional service.

### 1/5 — Top up issues

*2021-03-05, version 1.1.6*

I hv topped up with 100 - amount debited from bank but not yet credited to Empay even after 15 days. When follow up with customer service they say we’re working on your complaint. Still following up for refund....Same thing happened with my friend too.
Disappointed with the service!

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2021-03-04, version 1.1.5*

App constantly freezes on Emirates id updating screen . Despite removing and installing this app, the app is not moving to the next stage. Developers had not tested adequately before the launch. Not recommended

### 1/5 — The worst app ever.

*2021-03-01, version 1.1.5*

This is literally the worst application for making payments. First of all the number of bugs in the app will make you frustrated and kill your mood to order food. Second, you will also be charged more than what you actually have transfered to empay. And when you contact their service, for weeks they will only repeat “ our department will contact you once its solved “.

### 1/5 — DO NOT DOWNLOAD !!! Pathetic customer service

*2021-02-28, version 1.1.5*

Downloaded the app as they promoted Aed 1 meal deal. Firstly the address was not detected and had app issues. Called customer service numerous time and emails screenshots the only reply the team is looking into it. Nobody has d courtesy to inform that issue is fixed. Once its fixed they removed the promotion from account. again wrote to customer service who was unapologetic about their own system issues. DO NOT DOWNLOAD IT! NOT A GREAT EXPERIENCE AT ALL

### 1/5 — Worst app ever seen

*2024-05-31, version 4.3.1*

Useless app. Not even working at the sign up stage as it gives ‘request timed out’ error message all the time. I tried reinstalling about 10 times but still gives the same error. 

I experienced that this app drains the phone battery a lot while it opened. in 3 minutes my battery got drained about 13 percent. 

I recommend not to use this app as it is not that comfortable as what is described about this app in website.

### 1/5 — Worst App

*2023-12-19, version 4.3.1*

App does not allow to login says accnt inactive and ask to contact customer care, customer care contact not easily accesible, if we contact customer care nobody turning up.

### 1/5 — Low Top up limit

*2023-10-15, version 4.3.1*

Only AED 1000 top up through your debit/ credit card is allowed for a month and nobody on their help line knows when and how this limit can be increased!

### 1/5 — Login

*2023-01-02*

I cant even make an account because my number dont start with 5

### 1/5 — Useless

*2022-02-26*

Apps keep freezing and takes very long to load.
At the time you need to use the app it doesnt work even i am using iPhone 13 Pro that has a high performance.

### 1/5 — Unable to log in

*2022-02-18, version 3.0.2*

Unable to log in after changed the pin

### 1/5 — Salik fines not working.

*2021-11-21, version 2.1.5*

Empay app is not at all working for anything. The team does not have the ability to understand the problem. So fixing the problem is still a long journey. Pls hire people who understand the customer issues and resolve the same. Developing a app and releasing is not a big deal. Sustaining is something needs to be worked on….
Anyways I want me balance money back. ASAP.

### 1/5 — Worst

*2021-10-31, version 2.1.5*

One of the worst app that I have ever installed. From the day i installed the app it shows something went wrong and till now after a lots of complaints shows the same after creating the account

### 1/5 — Worst app with worst experience

*2021-10-21, version 2.1.5*

Ordered food through this app. And ended up in clouds. No way to track the order or later things after placing order. No confirmation messages or nothing. We have to wait until the driver come. If he come. He come. If not. What should we do???!!!!!!!!!!!
