### 4/5 — Rating

*2026-06-18, version 2026.9*

I do not think a rating that was written by a disgruntled person 4 years ago should be your introduction message

### 1/5 — Technical issues…

*2026-02-04, version 2025.16*

EVERY SINGLE TIME I use this app there are technical issues. Load of wank

### 3/5 — Electronic Mailbox missing in the app

*2026-01-11, version 2025.16*

Well…. I’m using this app long time. Recently got an e-mail that have some new documents in my electronic mailbox. There is even instruction in the e-mail how to find electronic mailbox for desktop app users and mobile app users. So I did login clicked menu on the right bottom corner and….. there is no electronic mailbox at all. Simply nothing. Spend 20 min to find and from my end mailbox is vanished. As a IPhone user I checked App Store to see if  there is some update on the App but my app is up to date.

### 1/5 — Regular errors

*2025-12-04, version 2025.16*

This app was brilliant but the last few months its constant errors! Please fix this!

### 2/5 — Mrs marie gallen

*2025-11-26, version 2025.15*

Iam not happy because I want buy make up online I can’t buy cos of my bank not there  I need see approve bank if I can buy but can’t through my bank

### 1/5 — Cannot make transfer on app

*2025-10-28, version 2025.15*

Useless, it won’t let me transfer money, it freezes at the end. Rang customer service advised to do it on e-banking instead.

### 1/5 — Keeps crashing

*2025-10-20, version 2025.12*

Very disappointed with app keeps crashing does not load properly at times does not show electronic mailbox at times does not ahow payee

### 4/5 — Top 2 improvement requests

*2025-07-28, version 2025.7*

My top 2 improvement requests:

1.  Push notifications when money is paid INTO an account. This would be super useful. 

2. Make debits on the transactions screen red, rather than the default Danske blue colour. Credits are already shown in green. Make debits red.

### 4/5 — Decent

*2025-07-15, version 2025.7*

Good looking app but need a notification for when money comes into my account and not just leaving it

### 2/5 — New to Danske

*2025-04-23, version 2025.4*

What can say is that it’s not as upto date with features as the AIB and Ulster Bank Apps who also especially the former have apps for Apple iPad and Apple Watch. Also in the categories for ins and outs, why don’t you have subscriptions and internet shopping? Also why isn’t Apple Pay here ? It would be handy if anyone loses their debit card. Pull your socks up Danske Bank

### 3/5 — New to Danske

*2025-04-06, version 2025.3*

I’m new to Danske so I don’t have a lot to right now. What can say is that it’s not as upto date with features as the AIB and Ulster Bank Apps who also especially the former have apps for Apple iPad and Apple Watch. Also in the categories for ins and outs, why don’t you have subscriptions and internet shopping?

### 1/5 — Shambles

*2025-03-26, version 2025.3*

Trying to get the Danske bank app set up took two weeks.
When you log in you have to carry your account number on paper as the app does hold it.
Going back to carrying cash as the apps are a nightmare.

### 1/5 — ID Check doesn’t work

*2025-01-30, version 2025.1*

ID check doesn’t work, can’t make payments

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2024-10-07, version 2024.12*

This app is awful. Always crashing or stuck. I have to delete and when I try to redownlaod it just says “open” totally unusable ..

### 1/5 — Didn’t work without reloading App

*2023-09-06, version 2023.10*

When I first tried the transfer it wouldn’t work, had to delete and reload app, after a long conversation with help desk which couldn’t help because I couldn’t verify my ID, how can I verify my ID without access to my accounts, do you know the last transaction on your account without accessing it, and you can’t access it without the app working

### 4/5 — Notifications

*2023-07-30, version 2023.8*

Add notifications when money is paid into an account. Currently, there are only notifications when money is paid out. Lastly, add a log off button to the transaction page. It shouldn’t be hidden behind the ‘menu’ button

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2023-07-20, version 2023.8*

Tried using this app for my account wouldn’t even let me login kept saying that password was wrong when it was definitely right .Doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Pearl

*2026-06-19, version 2026.2*

No longer able to use the app as my phone is IOS 16 and 17 is required.
Will not be upgrading my phone so bye bye Danske bank app

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2026-06-19, version 2026.2*

Been using mobile app for years & now I am told that I need to get a new phone in order to keep using it.  I am very disappointed by Danske.

### 1/5 — Update

*2026-06-19, version 2026.2*

Since you have make this update I can’t use it on this iPhone because I don’t have the iOS 17 now I can’t use it, the dumb dumb who have done this update is stupid many people like me can’t use it anymore

### 1/5 — D

*2026-06-18, version 2026.2*

Why have you decided to bin your account holders who don’t have an iPhone lower than 17 iOS ? A reply on this medium would be appreciated

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-06-16, version 2026.8*

Keeps crashing my saved payees keep disappearing the app crashes all the time you need to improve it before I close the bank account

### 1/5 — No text from the bank when bank balance is low

*2026-05-18, version 2026.7*

No text from the bank when bank balance is low. Other service providers send the texts to inform about low balance or not enough funds for DD and advice to put money in by 2:00pm for the DD to come out.

### 1/5 — Not iPhone 8 compatible

*2026-05-12, version 2025.16*

I discovered this evening that I can no longer use the Danske app because I have an iPhone 8 - and this is not supported by IOS 17.  I think this could have been communicated better. Now I have the unexpected expense of a new phone.  The second time in 2 weeks Danske have disappointed me. I need to change bank…after 40 years!

### 1/5 — Upgrading App

*2026-05-12, version 2025.16*

I cannot use my Danske Bank App because it is obscured by an overlay that states that I must update it in AppStore. When I attempt to do that, I am told that I must have IOS 17 or newer to do so. I am IOS 16. I assume from this unilateral arrogance that I must find another bank.

### 1/5 — Update should be optional

*2026-05-06, version 2026.7*

I am required to update app but I need at least 10gb of data to update phone before i do this which I don’t have. Now I have no access to online banking. Even a browser login won’t work

### 1/5 — Notifications

*2026-03-27, version 2026.2*

I do not get notified of incoming money into my bank? Would there be an issue or is this always been the way.. i have unistalled and reinstalled the app. Checked settings and no joy.
