Account opening

I had a great experience opening my account through the NBB Online Mobile App. The process was smooth, quick, and completely digital. I really appreciated the user-friendly interface and step-by-step guidance throughout the journey. Everything was clearly explained, and I was able to complete the application without needing to visit a branch. Excellent work by the NBB team in making banking easier and more accessible. Highly recommended!

A tech disaster

Not all features on this are activated. Requires individual customer service calls to activate features that should be fully functional. Why have an app with features that are not already accessible to customers? Have called three times to resolve the same tech issue and it’s still not resolved. I get the impression the IT dept is as lost as I am with this app.
