### 3/5 — Weak app

*2026-05-18*

This app basically serves to see your balance. For everything you need you have to go to online banking through your computer first. Even your bank account information is only available on the website. If you need to update your personal information you have to go to a bank branch, if you need a statement you have to go to your bank branch. For a bank like this, this app should be much better.

### 5/5 — Perfect for expats

*2026-04-28, version 3.69.0*

Just spot on. Transfer from QAR to GBP in seconds.

### 1/5 — Most difficult bank in Qatar

*2026-03-22*

Payments never reflect and you don’t know if the payment was done or not. Sometimes it can take a week to reflect especially in Eid holidays. You need to go into a bank to settle things for everything and personal banking is terrible- basically non existent

### 1/5 — Feature set is severely lacking

*2026-03-04, version 3.66.0*

Unable to do much on the app in terms of recurring payments etc

### 1/5 — Old fashioned and Inadequate

*2026-01-29, version 3.64.7*

Very old fashioned app that is barely fit for purpose!

### 1/5 — Slow internal

*2026-01-05, version 3.64.7*

Transactions

### 1/5 — Updates

*2025-09-19*

Constant updates required not allowing the application to be used until updated.

### 1/5 — HSBC Qatar App

*2025-09-13, version 3.62.0*

The App has very limited functionality & HSBC Qatar do not use Apple Pay. Their service is dreadful referring you to the call centre are extremely polite but totally hopeless and I am a premier customer. The only way to get service is to raise complaints.

### 1/5 — Qusad

*2025-07-12*

I cannot imagine we are in 2025 here in Qatar and you are the only Bank who don’t have FAWRAN  service

### 1/5 — From the dark ages app

*2025-06-25*

From the dark ages application
