### 3/5 — “New” Mobile App

*2025-06-26, version 6.0.0*

A further improvement would be to view multiple account balances in the Quick Balance option. Other banks have this feature in their apps…

### 4/5 — Much better

*2025-06-26, version 6.0.0*

Login is much better. 
Enlarged text size overlaps in parts (screen balance).

### 1/5 — Frustrating app to use.

*2025-06-19, version 5.1.4*

Always issues accessing app on cellular data.  Doesn’t help if you’re on the road and need access to money and call centre is closed.

### 2/5 — Needs work too many bugs

*2025-01-07, version 5.1.4*

Disappointing that there are constant issues and bugs with this app. Generally easy to use  when it works but frustrating that half the time I have to resort to a computer to do banking. Please invest and refine this app so mobile banking works.

### 1/5 — Disappointed over Christmas!

*2024-12-19*

I have updated the app to the new version, now I access it at all ! 
I get the page where it says welcome and that’s it, no option to open it or get started or anything, it totally useless to me. Great job guys!

**Developer response:** Hello, We're sorry to hear you're having issues with the mobile app. So that we can help identify the cause and assist with troubleshooting, please contact us directly at digitalteam@tmbl.com.au. Thanks DB

### 1/5 — Connection issues and slow

*2024-10-20*

This app constantly has connection issues and is really slow and clunky compared to other banking apps. Needs improvement.

### 2/5 — Why?

*2024-08-06, version 5.1.2*

Why are you always having issues? Always something wrong. 
So now i have your attention, your customer service person, vera, not helpful. My husband and i tried to get him into our account, to deposit a cheque. He is elderly, hard of hearing, and has no digital knowledge whats so ever, yet vera would not listen, nor let me help. Anyone would think we were scammers. When i contacted via help, she told me to ring the help line. We did this and guess who we got on the line? Vera! She was impossible to get past, yet the account is in joint names. She even hung up at one stage. If it wasnt so inconvenient to change, i would not be with this credit union. We have been members for over 40 yrs, to be treated like scammers, because we rang with a query needing help. Boohoo.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2024-08-06, version 5.1.2*

I used to be able to use the app but since Sunday every time I try to login it says connection error. I’ve tried turning WiFi off, turning phone off and on, deleted the app the reinstalled it multiple times. Does not work

### 1/5 — Pathetic app

*2024-07-22, version 5.1.0*

Hasn’t been working for days. When I try & log in it comes up Error. Then it says “We’re on the case and working as fast we can to resolve the issue. Thanks for your patience. Please try again shortly”. 
Well, I’m out of patience. Maybe you should get a new I.T department.

### 2/5 — Very underdeveloped

*2024-06-04, version 5.1.0*

App consistently is unavailable! You also have the tedious log in process unlike other banks who have a 4 code password once you’re set up. The technology is very old, unlike the bigger banks.

Really unhappy with the service this bank provides lately. Used to be fabulous when it was a small credit union!
