### 2/5 — App is really buggy

*2026-06-07, version 26.1.402.1*

I work in IT as a systems engineer and I marked it failing loading transactions for over two weeks in a row to an app issue that needed updating. Deleted and reinstalled the app and now it works again. No new version update, just a reinstall fixed it. Two stars because I guess I could have spent my valuable time sending them error and debug logs and didn’t bother but for a banking app I rely on daily expect it to better.

Also why can’t I partial pay my mortgage ahead of the due date and pay the rest before the due date hits? It makes no sense.

Also I see a lot of canned responses from the “app developer”, please don’t sent me one or I’ll hit the ceiling. Just fix the problems.

### 2/5 — Face ID / Problem Load

*2020-12-27, version 10.5.0.1*

I Check Log In But No Face ID Pump Up. Also, I Did Entering At Bank But Load 4 or 5 Times Until It Delete Then I Came Back HCU Update Download Then It’s Working. But Today Load Again. No Good. Please You Have To Fix Resolved Problem.

### 3/5 — 50/50

*2020-11-10, version 10.1.0.1*

The app is great... when it works. For weeks now I’ve gotten nothing but a loading screen and am unable to login, and have had similar problems in the past. I have no problem logging in on a website browser but the app simply doesn’t work sometimes.

### 1/5 — Update

*2016-12-22, version 8.2.0.1*

No fingerprint available !

### 1/5 — App

*2023-12-18, version 11.4.1.1*

App keeps crashing and logging me out

### 1/5 — Can never login

*2023-03-06, version 11.4.0.1*

I’ve been “using” this app for a long time now and it’s been nothing but trouble. The fingerprint sign in has NEVER worked and neither has the “remember me” function. Every time I use the touch login, it locks me out of my account. I’ve never had to call a place so many times to have my account unlocked and even if you use the forgot password, put in your SSN and answer your questions correctly, nope gotta call. Soooo frustrating just to check my balance.

### 1/5 — Holyoke Credit Union App

*2023-02-17, version 11.4.0.1*

Next time you update or change the format maybe notify the customer when it’s going to happen?

### 1/5 — Face ID

*2021-03-04, version 10.6.0.1*

Did you remove the facial ID option for this app? It was so much better when you could log in with it but now it doesn’t even seem to be an option.

### 1/5 — Never works

*2020-12-11, version 10.3.0.1*

When the app works, it is easy to use. However this is rarely the case. It always seems to be not working for some oddball reason. Fix the app pls.

### 1/5 — App will not Load

*2020-12-11, version 10.3.0.1*

Seems like you have an issue with your app that several other customers have complained about. Since the last update the app will not load. Just get a spinning wheel. Very inconvenient during this pandemic where the credit union is working with reduced services. Let’s fix the issue so people can bank safely from home.

### 1/5 — Problems

*2020-11-13, version 10.1.0.1*

No matter what they fix or update I always have trouble signing in . Such a hassle

### 1/5 — App refuses to work

*2020-11-02, version 10.1.0.1*

Whatever update was done needs to be reversed. I spent 3 hours trying to make the app work and it just doesn’t. It won’t even get to the login page.

### 1/5 — Fix App please ...

*2020-10-30, version 10.1.0.1*

stays stuck in loading screen please fix this .....

### 1/5 — Bill Pay Update Stinks

*2017-04-22, version 8.2.0.1*

The app was fine!  Why update the bill pay????  Now you can't see when you last paid a bill, get kicked back to the main menu every time.  It's clunky and hard to manage. I left my last bank because they screwed up the app.  Now you've done the same thing!  Why????

### 5/5 — The Best

*2026-06-24, version 26.1.402.1*

I never banked with a better institution before HCU

### 5/5 — HCU

*2026-02-14, version 25.2.101.1*

Great mobile app easy to navigate!

### 5/5 — Funding

*2024-05-10, version 24.1.0.1*

All my transactions are made simple and easy. Thanks to the easy access and method to logging in and banking on-line. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Doesn’t Work At First

*2023-02-22, version 11.4.0.1*

When I open the app it says there’s an error so I have to close it and reopen it.  I am using the facial recognition sign in option

### 5/5 — Terrible

*2022-11-03, version 10.6.2.1*

Constantly changing the app, the latest version as of November 2022 has a few features that are in Porten. It’s simply don’t work for example, trying to get information on your HCU credit card will be a waste of time. It’s simply doesn’t work. They’ve moved quite a few options now under your user account where they used to be right on the front ribbon, so good luck finding a lot of stuff this is supposed to be an improvement. I see it as five steps back in my opinion.

### 5/5 — What happened?

*2021-01-13, version 10.5.0.1*

This app used to great. No longer.

### 5/5 — Worth having at no cost

*2015-06-09, version 1.2.1.100*

Decent design, very basic, and easy to use. What more can you ask for. Simple quick info account at the ready!

### 4/5 — It was great..

*2024-04-01, version 24.1.0.1*

I think there’s been some updating done and now I get error messages and have to clear the app and sign in again to reset it. I hope this gets resolved as it’s quite frustrating.

### 4/5 — PLEASE FIX!!!

*2020-10-06, version 9.2.2.2*

This app is great and I use it multiple times a day with zero issues....UNTIL...this latest update from Apple. Now it crashes on me repeatedly and/or just continuously freezes. Please please please fix this bug issue

### 3/5 — System

*2021-08-18, version 10.6.0.1*

App is pretty good when it works.  It has a tendency to change its viewing setup ever so often and when it does I can’t get any information for weeks on end.
