### 3/5 — Cannot open

*2026-06-16, version 9.1.1*

Why now I cannot open this apps? I delete and reinstall also cannot open.

### 5/5 — Secure and seamless

*2026-03-10, version 8.4.0*

With enhanced security measures like biometric login, card and transaction limit controls, and real-time account notifications, you can transact with peace of mind. The app is generally user-friendly, but some users have reported issues with the new interface being slow and not as intuitive. You can enjoy features like fast and easy sign-up, schedule transfers, add favorites, download e-statements, and auto-debit for Personal Loan payments. CIMB Clicks also offers free instant fund transfers via Instapay, and you can manage multiple accounts, including Upsave Accounts with high interest rates.

### 5/5 — Intuitiva, segura y muy completa

*2026-01-14*

Llevo tiempo usando la app y la experiencia es bastante fluida. La interfaz es limpia y permite realizar transferencias y pagos de servicios en segundos. Me gusta especialmente la autenticación biométrica y la rapidez de las notificaciones de transacciones. Muy confiable para el día a día.

### 2/5 — Preferred Client CANNOT buy stocks

*2025-11-14, version 8.3.0*

Such a big bank but with way outdated system. Even if I can buy, it requires placing order many many hours before and I can only buy or sell at OPENING price. What a waste of time. Do not bother opening account here.

### 1/5 — new app for iOS have issue

*2026-08-03, version 9.2.0*

Unable login to the app

### 1/5 — Consistently unable to receive OTP for login

*2026-05-09, version 9.0.0*

Extremely frustrating, this happens on and off and for days on end. Also no OTP to set up digital token. Did everything to troubleshoot but still unresolved.

### 1/5 — Worse apps

*2025-09-08, version 8.2.0*

Cant open apps today..buffering..no memo to inform customers if have any maintenance.. worse apps

### 1/5 — Feedback on Digital Account Opening Experience

*2025-03-13, version 8.0.0*

I recently attempted to open an account with Cimb Bank using Singpass. However, I was still required to provide my passport, residency card, and signature.

I found this process to be inconvenient and not user-friendly. As a digital banking platform, I hope you can simplify the account opening process by leveraging Singpass's secure authentication features.

1. Reduce the number of required documents for account opening.
2. Utilize Singpass's digital authentication capabilities to minimize the need for physical documents.
3. Streamline the account opening process for a more seamless customer experience.

Thank you for taking my feedback into consideration. I look forward to seeing improvements in the future!

### 1/5 — CANT RECEIVE OTP TO SET UP DIGITAL TOKEN!!!!

*2024-11-19, version 7.3.0*

Malaysia phone number cant receive otp!!! Cant register digital token due to otp issue, means cant do anything. 
-OTP can be received for log in only.
-Didn’t receive otp to set up digital token altho it shows otp sent
Please assists!

### 1/5 — Terrible App, Don’t use

*2024-10-06, version 7.2.1*

App started giving me an invalid request error all of a sudden and I could no longer login on the app. CSO asked me to reinstall the app, making me lose my digital token access and I suddenly can no longer even add new payees to transfer out my funds. Horrible app and internet banking experience with CIMB overall. Reconsider using CIMB, there are plenty of better bank options out there these days.

### 1/5 — Poor / lousy app

*2024-09-12, version 7.2.0*

Customers cannot change daily transfer limit, cannot lock credit card, cannot change credit card limit, cannot have email alert, cannot block online transaction. The only way to do above is to call customer service and if want to change back, have to submit document. There are already banks that allow customer to change transfer limit and lock credit card -> UOB TMRW app and Trust app.

Please IMPROVE YOUR APP

### 1/5 — Unable to log in as well

*2024-08-31, version 7.2.0*

Same issue as others. Message pop up to say that it is unavailable and to try again later. Same message pop up after days of trying again. Deleted the app and downloaded it again and still cannot log in via the app.
