### 2/5 — Mobile App for what?

*2026-05-04*

This app is always down. I’ve been with this bank since last year October and it’s been nothing but issues with this app. Can never get in touch with anyone and the bank is closed on the weekends which is when the most issues occur. I just don’t understand.

### 3/5 — Slow to update

*2026-05-01*

I don’t know about anyone else but iPhone is always slow to get updates from Guardians One. Every time Apple releases updates Guardians One is always major malfunctioning for a month. Right now it will not even let me log in!!! I am a guardians app user from the release of the app years ago. I understand that GCU is a non profit but updates are very important!

### 2/5 — Needs work

*2025-12-02*

Every time I login it sometimes allows me to or crashes then I have to reload and start over again. Also, my Face ID keeps turning off every time I need to use the app I have to log in manually. I can’t even use Face ID anymore. I really consider changing banks because of this app.

### 2/5 — It's always down

*2023-12-21, version 22.2.200*

Banking app is always down & takes forever to get ahold of the bank

### 3/5 — UPDATE IT

*2023-03-15*

App is good and everything but doesn’t show me my transaction history. I just started seeing that the app is not even loading no more it keeps crash once I click it. I rather have an app that can work for everything and show me transactions history as well from using my credit card you’re telling me I have to wait for my statements to show see what I spent my money that’s so stupid. Guardian please update the app or something that doesn’t cause so much issues I’ve been using the app since 2021 and now it’s just crashing all the time🤦🏽‍♂️

### 2/5 — Can’t Get Representative

*2022-11-15*

Every time I call to make a payment or ask them to collect a payment it didn’t give you the option. For mobile banking it’s the most inconvenient app.

### 1/5 — Unusable App

*2022-11-09, version 22.1.100*

This app hasn't worked in close to 2 years now and it's unacceptable I've never had a bank that doesn't have a functional app.

### 1/5 — This bank is horrible!

*2022-10-16*

Online banking never works, the customer is awful! When I call I have gotten a women with an accent twice who is not helpful at all and always seems aggravated. My sister and friend just mentioned that the are closing their account and so will I. They should Probably all get training: thanks

### 4/5 — Guardians Zelle

*2022-09-03*

I liked it better when my Zelle was separate from my app because it doesn’t always show up when I sign in or it takes forever to deposit whatever being sent or received.

### 1/5 — WARNING

*2022-04-06, version 21.3.40*

This app will mess you up.

### 1/5 — TERRIBLE

*2021-09-29, version 21.1.43*

The app is a joke and so is the customer service!!! APP never works!!!

### 1/5 — Where is the update ?

*2021-08-06, version 19.3.30*

Where is the update ??? Everything still the same. No zelle at all

### 1/5 — Ugh

*2021-08-05, version 19.3.30*

Super frustrating. It’s down more than it works

### 1/5 — Primitive and no functionality

*2021-02-24*

This is the worst banking app I’ve ever used. It does ONE thing, let’s you look at your balance. I can’t deposit checks (the checks deposit app is an even worse joke since it won’t even let me join or log in or whatever), I can’t print statements, I can’t do anything but look at my account balance and see the items that passed thru my account. Why even bother?! Will probably only use this account for one thing and that’s to pay back a loan bc I can’t do anything else with it, and stay with my real bank checking account.

### 1/5 — AWFUL

*2020-08-16, version 19.3.30*

Worst bank app ever.  
Did the developers bother to look at other bank apps to see all the things you can do with theirs?
This app is so basic.
Account balance and transfer between accounts.....?  THATS IT?
No Bill Pay???

Crap

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2026-03-05*

I have had this app for a couple of years and it has never worked correctly… No matter what I do , it will never let me log in more than once.

I reset the password and it will work for a week then stop. I have erased it and reloaded it multiple times and it continues to do the same thing over and over again. For the size of the company, you would think that they would be able to provide their customers with an app that actually works. 

I find it very aggravating that if I am traveling with my family, I have to literally use a laptop to login to make sure that my banking and bills are all paid through the actual website online browser.

I was able to give this review any lower of a score I would!

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-01-04, version 25.1.31*

Very slow, very impracticable

### 1/5 — Terrible online service

*2025-09-09*

Constantly down and constantly make you change your password to which half of the time whatever you want to change your password to just gives you an error message and doesn’t explain why.

### 1/5 — Complaint

*2025-05-02*

This app need to be updated , it’s not practical as other banking app , its is hard to manage basic needs , some option is not even  available . I’m not going to put my  money on a app that hard to  manage

### 1/5 — Awful App

*2024-05-23, version 23.2.30*

This app is awful….never works the way it should! Makes it hard to do online moblie banking!!

### 1/5 — No

*2024-03-18, version 23.2.30*

Verify then verify then verify again on top of face recognition that rarely works. Zelle is a problem on here, not a very functional app

### 1/5 — Mobile Banking is Terrible

*2023-06-12*

I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app on multiple occasions over the last year and the system is always down and not running. When I called to talk to the CU about it I was repeatedly told to uninstall and reinstall as if that would magically fix the issue after I told them I have three times and it was not working properly.

### 1/5 — App hardly works

*2023-04-04*

I’ve tried now for days to use the mobile app & the moment I try to open it, it just crashes. I finally just deleted it. This is the only bank of mine that I have issues with the app.

### 1/5 — Mobile app not working

*2023-03-30*

Used it yesterday and worked fine.  Today cannot even get into the app.  Spent an hour on hold and all the employee said was it must be your phone!
Every 6 months I have a problem like this with this credit union.  I have been a member of other credit unions and this is the worst of them.  I have transferred most of my money elsewhere because I cannot depend on this credit union.

### 1/5 — WORST BANK EVER

*2022-11-15, version 22.1.100*

Absolutely worst app ever and if you have this bank I truly feel sorry for you. Go to a new bank!!!!!!!!!
