### 2/5 — Good but Most unreliable transfer App

*2025-03-19, version 3.26*

This app has huge potential but it’s the most unreliable when you need it most. Don’t use it after any update or upgrade. Customer service is helpless and the support chat is dead. Live chat takes forever to respond and email comes with apologies and holding response. Sometimes the company should give realistic feedback and prioritize customer. Why introduce a feature that is unstable and rushed.

### 3/5 — Good

*2025-02-27*

The app is awesome. But try and update to let NIN verification acceptable

### 1/5 — SCAMMERS

*2024-12-10, version 3.20*

They’ve held onto my wages for the last 17 days , no response from their incompetent advisors and no updates . They plan to frustrate me till I lose my wage but I will be taking them to the financial ombudsman service.
0/10 service.

### 1/5 — Leatherback is a scam

*2024-11-28, version 3.18*

They are a scam if you need proof use their app !!

### 1/5 — Nonsense app

*2024-10-13*

I had a terrible experience with Leatherback. On October 11, 2024, my family friend, Mr. Murdoch, sent me £2,287 via Leatherback, and I immediately provided all the necessary documentation to receive the funds. Despite fulfilling every requirement, the money has yet to be released, and their customer service has been completely unhelpful.

This is not a minor delay. I’ve been in constant communication with their support team, but all I receive are vague responses without any real progress. The lack of urgency and transparency is frustrating, especially considering the importance of the funds to me.

Desperate for help, I even reached out to Leatherback’s CEO and key executives via social media, tagging them multiple times with my ticket number (#12906). I also tagged relevant authorities like the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) in Nigeria, hoping to draw attention to the issue and the apparent incompetence within Leatherback.

As a customer, this situation has caused undue stress and financial strain. I trusted Leatherback with an important financial transaction, expecting reliable service, but they’ve shown nothing but delays and unprofessionalism. I would urge anyone thinking about using their service to be extremely cautious, as their handling of this matter has been beyond disappointing.

Please contact us at help@leatherback.co with your transaction details, and our team will prioritize resolving this for you.

### 1/5 — Bad App

*2024-09-18, version 3.17*

This is one of the most useless app! Do not use them, I’ve sent money to fund my account since 7 days now and nothing is coming through from them. Customer care is bad!

### 1/5 — Delay in my 25 pounds I sent

*2024-09-17, version 3.17*

Give back my money

### 3/5 — Cheap transaction rates and amazing features

*2024-08-22, version 3.14*

I've been using the Leatherback app for a while now, and I'm impressed with its affordability. The rates for international transfers are much cheaper compared to other apps I've tried. The multi-currency feature is a standout for me, as it makes saving in multiple currencies incredibly easy.

### 3/5 — Good good

*2024-06-24, version 3.11*

Awesome so far

### 1/5 — Worst Experience

*2024-05-23, version 3.09*

Leatherback is nothing but an overrated app. It’s a painful to me that I have to write about my bad experience with your company instead of the good. But there’s nothing good offered to me. Ordinary Nigeria bank account, your company couldn’t successfully give me, not to even mention a foreign account!!! I have uploaded documents over 3 weeks still pending. Your company rating doesn’t even deserve 1 out of 5.

### 2/5 — Identity failed

*2024-01-05*

Not sure what’s going on. 
Ui is a bit ok.
