### 3/5 — Decent but that’s it

*2026-08-18, version 2026.4.2.3*

Good app. Has necessary features and nothing more. It also does not run very smoothly and crashes regularly. The bank itself is great though.

### 4/5 — Unnecessary pop up messages

*2026-07-17, version 2026.4.2.3*

It is pretty common that when you leave an app for any length of time, you will have to log back in. Showing a message that I was logged out and must log back in is unnecessary and only delays getting to the information I need. I can’t imagine there will be a single complaint if you removed this unnecessary step.

### 4/5 — Update

*2026-07-02, version 2026.01.01*

In the bill pay. Instead of indicating when it’s paid indicate when it’s next p paid. And a calculator would be nice.

### 4/5 — App is getting much better

*2026-06-01, version 2026.01.01*

The fffcu app is getting much better and user friendly. 
Carol at the Az location is always helpful.

### 2/5 — Looks awful

*2026-05-21, version 2026.01.01*

The credit union is great. The new look of the app is ugly, difficult to read, and cluttered. Wish I didn’t update.

### 2/5 — Ease of use

*2026-05-12, version 2026.01.01*

I belong to two credit unions . Firefighters first cu mobile app is superior to the other Cu’s app in ease of use . Specifically when it comes to paying firefighters first credit card accounts. 
Thank you .

### 2/5 — App issues

*2026-04-10, version 2026.01.01*

App not allowing me to login on iPad , have updated, uninstalled, reinstalled, rebooted . Still won’t let me log on? Also had issues in iPhone but it will now intermittently allow log in on iPhone.  If I go via website I can log in, glitch somewhere.

### 5/5 — Very well made

*2025-06-04, version 2025.0203.1*

This app is very intuitive and easy to use!

### 5/5 — My experience

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2025-02-20, version 2024.10.1.10*

Best in every way for 40 years!

### 5/5 — Excellent service

*2024-09-16, version 2024.4.0.10*

I have been with Fire Fighters First Credit Union for 40 years. Wow, that ages me. They have always had excellent service. I mostly use the online banking which is easy to use. Their loan rates are lower than anybody else’s and their savings rates are higher. You can’t beat that. In the 40 years I have been with them, I have never had even 1 issue. I highly recommend using Fire Fighters First Credit Union. I’d give them 10 stars if I could.

### 1/5 — New app layout

*2026-06-19, version 2026.01.01*

### 1/5 — App

*2026-06-16, version 2026.01.01*

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2026-05-30, version 2026.01.01*

The check deposit crashes all the time. I have to retake 50% of the checks I deposit through the app. Such a waste of time!

### 1/5 — New app

*2026-05-23, version 2026.01.01*

Information is not as accessible. Requires additional interaction to get information that was previously accessible at a glance.

### 1/5 — Update

*2026-05-22, version 2026.01.01*

The absolute worst UI update I’ve ever seen. Change it back

### 1/5 — New app sucks

*2026-05-21, version 2026.01.01*

Not a big fan of the facelift on the app. I make a payment on one of my accounts and it still shows up not paid spend all this time re-engineering the whole app and it’s still sucks.

### 1/5 — Zelle not working

FFCU is the best Credit Union of all Time!

### 5/5 — Easy!!!!!

*2026-02-27, version 2025.10.1.1*

What can anyone say. I honestly believe the title said it all!

### 5/5 — Good Tax Service

*2026-02-22, version 2025.10.1.1*

The Firemens Credit Union has been great for my family and myself for over thirty years. Now I utilize the Tax service which has been a heaven sent. The personnel are kind and professional. I am a proud member of the FF CU.

### 5/5 — Firefighters First CU is great

*2026-02-20, version 2025.10.1.1*

I have secured several loans from them with ease and quickly. I can call and speak with someone if I have a concern or question. The mobile check deposit is so easy and convenient. I highly recommend them for all of your banking needs.

### 5/5 — Service

*2025-12-02, version 2025.7.2.1*

Has always been easy to resolve any issues if anything happens.    Glad I made the switch.

### 5/5 — Exceptional Service!

*2025-09-29, version 2025.7.2.1*

I have been a FFCU member since 1989 and the service just keeps getting better. I had a difficult transaction that was easily handled over the phone. If it had been a different bank - any major named institution - it would have been next to impossible to get the situation resolved without, not only an visit to the branch, but a delay in getting my funds. They figured it out in one phone call. My whole family, including my parents have been members of this amazing Credit Union. Can’t say enough good things about the FFCU.  Thank you!!!

### 5/5 — Good

*2025-06-06, version 2025.0203.1*

Excellent customer service. Easy to use.
