### 3/5 — Fund transfer not “scheduled”

*2026-03-11, version 2025.10.1.5*

“Schedule “ a fund transfer does not ask for the date you wish to for funds to transfer, it just does the transaction immediately.

### 2/5 — Very Slow Updates on Account Balances

*2024-05-11, version 2024.01.01*

Of all the financial service apps I use, this one has the slowest update on transactions (aside from debit). It can sometimes take days for my checking account to balance on the app. I will watch it and this long time delay even happens on weekday and not just weekends.

### 1/5 — Recent update -5/18/23

*2023-05-18, version 2023.3.0.1*

So I’ve been using this app for probably about 5 years now and I’ve loved it for its simple intuitive interface 
The recent update has changed that
Where once it was easy to see your accounts and make transfers, manage them and pay them off now that setting is hidden in a sub-menu and the opening page is filled with reviewing their policy with no way to dismiss or readdress 
Until they have updated it again I would strongly recommend avoiding this app
It’s a mess right now

### 1/5 — Closed account without notice- WORST BANK

*2023-03-24, version 2022.9.2.1*

Worst bank ever. Paid for payment protection for years in case of emergency’s and had back surgery they closed my visa account and never contacted me. I’ve had this bank for years and I’ve never been treated so poorly. Even the lady emailing me never mentioned who to call and they’re still billing me for the protection payment insurance even after they closed my visa worst bank ever.! User friendly! Love my horizon and the staff ladies at the Spokane valley location know me by name and are always so professional and kind. I would work there lol

### 3/5 — Blind

*2022-12-23, version 2022.9.2.1*

It is not completely accessible for the blind. i’m not able to tell where money has been going in my account..

### 4/5 — Great banking app

*2022-11-17, version 2022.6.0.1*

I can do most anything I need from the app. Very convenient and login is very fast.

### 1/5 — Criminals

*2022-11-09, version 2022.6.0.1*

This company is a bunch of thieves. They might as well show up with a gun and steal your money. They’re shaking me down for 1700 bux for a month laps in insurance. I’d you see the m as the finance bank on anything walk away

### 4/5 — Missing…

*2022-05-29, version 2021.11.0.37*

There used to be a place to make a memo regarding a money transfer between accounts and it is no longer there for iPhone. It is still there for iPad. Please fix as this is important. Thank you

### 1/5 — Horrible Remote Banking

*2021-04-27, version 6.5.5.34*

This App is useless if you rely heavily on mobile deposits. My work hours prevent me from making it to a physical location so I can only deposit over the app. This is honestly the worst app I’ve used yet for banking and it makes me want to take my service elsewhere. **Please note, the actual human being that work for this establishment are amazing and I love them... but I need an app that works and this one just doesn’t cut it.**

### 1/5 — Fraudulent activity

*2021-04-15, version 6.5.5.34*

I was notified of a fraudulent debit card purchase and agreed it was indeed an unauthorized purchase. Four days later, it posted to my account and after three calls to a third party to make a claim, it still hasn’t been reversed after 12 days.

### 4/5 — Keyboard

*2020-09-24, version 6.4.1.32*

Don’t like splitkeyboard

### 1/5 — MOBILE DEPOSIT

*2019-11-30, version 6.0.1.24*

Y’all don’t actually put it in when you say you will. I put it in before you close and yet it’s never there until Saturday morning or Monday even. Getting real annoying. I’m about to switch to a different bank. That’s how bad it is.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — 1990’s Technology

*2026-06-03, version 2026.01*

The HZCU app is absolutely awful. It’s like they went back to the 1990’s and chose the cheapest option for the platform.

### 1/5 — Unable to make payments

*2026-01-16, version 2025.10.1.5*

It should not be this hard to set up payments. I had to create 3 different logins and talked to two separate people on how to access the “app” and then had to use a different portal to set up the payments. I was told I can’t make payments through the app it’s self and that setting up automatic payments and then making additional payments ontop makes it glitch. That rather I need to set up my additional payments on the automatic payments. Let alone that I will have to go find this separate domain to be able to do it! This is the worst online banking service I’ve ever had and I regret using this bank for a loan.

### 1/5 — New Update

*2025-08-07, version 2025.5.0.1*

This new update is ridiculous. Do you guys even run this by members when testing it!  I highly doubt it. Nothing wrong with the previous design.

### 1/5 — Update: downgraded quality

*2025-07-31, version 2025.5.0.1*

Latest update is going backwards in capability.  The one useful compact view once you log in is now filled with giant text and so much white space you have to scroll to see all of your accounts.

Other config pages that should scroll do not.

Some tools do not need constant updates.

### 1/5 — Widget hasn’t been updated for iOS 18

*2024-10-12, version 2024.04.11*

There was a banking widget for iOS 15 that allowed you to put a widget showing your account balances on your phones screen, no need to open app and log in, with the new iOS the widget no longer exists. It just needs to be updated

### 1/5 — Behind the times

*2024-08-23, version 2024.04.11*

HZCU app and the organization itself has always been behind the times and depending on location, poor service.

### 1/5 — WORST BANK EVER

*2024-08-02, version 2024.04.11*

HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!! Do not waste your time doing business with Horizon credit union. Washington trust bank is a million times better. This place is a joke!!

### 1/5 — Review the app

*2023-11-06, version 2023.3.0.1*

Not user friendly and pretty complicated and have to take lots of extra steps for something that shouldn’t be that difficult.

### 1/5 — Horizon Credit Union is terrible!!

*2023-08-14*

This is by far one of the worst banks I have ever used!! I have been a loyal customer for 8 years now and I am closing all of my accounts with them. I have always received absolutely horrendous customer service from here. There are so much better credit unions out there. Horizon Credit Union is the worst!

### 5/5 — 5 star review

*2026-06-06, version 2026.01*

Horizon is a wonderful credit union to be apart of. The app is super user friendly and easy to use. The customer service is wonderful and that's why I've used them for 10+ years!

### 5/5 — Good app

*2025-04-02, version 2024.10.01*

User friendly, can do most things on that you would need to.

### 5/5 — Simply the best!

*2023-10-12, version 2023.3.0.1*

I would like to say how friendly and great the staff are at your Washington Street location. They recognize me and we have great conversations.
We laugh, and I feel cared for and appreciated.
Oh yes and they do great with the banking aspect also lol.

### 5/5 — Hackers

*2022-02-23, version 2021.11.0.37*

I was in a foreign Country and was notified that my Debit Card was hacked in the USA while I was gone.  Big inconvenience.   It’s either Republicans or Russians.  What can be done.  I’m still two weeks away from getting home to get another card.  Can I set up two Debit Card accounts.

### 5/5 — You Rock!

*2021-03-17, version 6.5.5.34*

Thank you for always being there for me and my family.

### 5/5 — Horizon Credit Union personnel are very helpful

*2019-12-27, version 6.0.1.24*

Everyone at Horizon Credit Union are very knowledgeable and helpful when we have questions. They helped us with a personal loan and are always available for any questions we may have.

### 5/5 — Statements

*2019-10-04, version 6.0.1.24*

Statements take too long to post. I have a hard time keeping track of my purchases.

### 5/5 — Favorite CU

*2019-08-30, version 6.0.1.24*

I’ve had 3 or 4 credit unions over the years, and Horizon is definitely my favorite. Deena and Terri at the Sandpoint always welcome me as soon as I walk in. They are amazing

### 5/5 — Happy customer

*2019-07-11, version 5.12.2.23*

User friendly! Love my horizon and the staff ladies at the Spokane valley location know me by name and are always so professional and kind. I would work there lol

### 5/5 — Great App

*2019-01-02, version 5.11.20*

I’ve had this app going on a year and a half. Like any app it has had some issues but they do a great job improving it and adding really easy to use products/services. The ability to apply for any loan they offer in the app is a great addition and pre-pulls across all your data making the process quick and easy. Their money management tool has also helped me budget better by being able to link my outside accounts to it as well and setting goals for different aspects of spending. HZCU is a great credit union and I’m proud to be a member!
