### 1/5 — WORST APP

*2022-04-26, version 3.3*

This is the WORST app and company EVER! The people that work for them don’t even know what they are doing. I am getting an attorney and suing them.

*2020-02-13, version 2.0*

I’ve been trying to verify my ID for a week and the app just crashes.  I’m really wanting to use these cards but the app and website won’t let me go any further. Starting to wonder if this is a scam? FIX THIS PLEASE!

### 1/5 — Never did work

*2018-12-26, version 1.5*

I tried numerous times and no matter what I tried it kept telling me that they couldn’t register my card. Tech support was not helpful at all. They communicated with me via email, but no matter what they suggested the apps never worked.

### 5/5 — Amazing company!
