### 2/5 — The app is not great

*2026-06-02, version 3.0.0*

The App takes too much time to load, even between operations within the app there is waiting time, it is not that intuitive for certain commands you want to carry out, I have also found that it doesn’t work in many occasions. The bank itself is not great either, international transfer take over three days.

### 3/5 — No se me eliminan las notificaciones

*2026-05-14, version 2.10.1*

No soporto que me salgan todas las notificaciones marcadas, a pesar de que las abro todas, es algo que me molesta y por mas que las filtro elimino app todo, no se eliminan

### 3/5 — Can’t sign out

*2026-02-18, version 2.9.1*

Have been stuck in the App for ages looking for the sign out but can’t find it 😤

### 2/5 — Terrible App

*2026-02-01, version 2.9.1*

Really annoying app. Not user friendly, really makes me want to close it as soon as I open it because it’s difficult to understand and really wanna change bank only to get a better app

### 2/5 — Bad experience with VPN

*2025-12-23, version 2.9.1*

It’s the only banking app that does not work while I have the VPN enabled. It shows an error message and it’s impossible to do anything. The message says: “Oops, something went wrong! An error occurred while loading your details. Please try again.”

### 1/5 — Discrimina lingüísticament

*2025-12-12, version 2.9.0*

No està en català

### 3/5 — Filtro notificaciones no leídas

*2025-12-01, version 2.8.3*

Se necesita un filtro para notificaciones no leídas, si tienes muchas alguna se puede quedar en la lista sin leer y te sale el número siempre y es bastante desagradable.

### 1/5 — Fatal

*2025-11-28, version 2.8.3*

No deja de darme problemas el Bizum

### 1/5 — Problemas al iniciar sesión

*2025-11-28, version 2.8.3*

Últimamente cuesta realizar login en la app y he podido estar varios minutos intentando logar y dejarlo porque es imposible

### 1/5 — Desastre

*2025-11-27, version 2.8.3*

Fallos múltiples y de larga duración. Un banco online no se puede permitir un desastre así

### 1/5 — no funciona

*2026-09-03, version 3.2.0*

cuando te piden dos formas de verificacion por cualquier cosa que haves una ves dentro del app me parece exagerado. Ahora mismo no puedo operar porque no me llegan los sms. Lo he intentado todo y he hablado con 8 personas. Ninguna me
puede ayudar. Ya por fin tengo mi nueva clave de firma pero sigo sin
poder operar porque tambien hay que recibir un SMS que nunca me llega.
Cuando intento cambiar mi numero de telefono en Estados Unidos no me deja poner el prefijo de estados unidos. Lo marco y se me cambia al de Canada que es tambien el +1.
Despues le doy aceptar y me sale un error.

The app is so bad that even most basic banking operations cause immense pain. The worst banking experience in my life.

### 1/5 — Inutil

*2026-04-11, version 2.10.1*

Uma porcaria, informacoes confusas e incapaz de efetuar uma transferencia simples e apesar de apresentar erro nao informa o que seria esse erro. Atendimento telefonico do banco tbm eh uma inutilidade.

### 1/5 — Pesima aplicacion y gestion

*2026-01-26, version 2.9.1*

Llevo seis meses esperando para poder activar mi cuenta, pesima gestion, lentisima, estamos en la era digital y tengo que esperar casi dos semanas para obtener mi clave de firma porque la envian por correo, servicios de sguridad y verificacion muy obsoletos….

### 1/5 — EU ID is not allowed

*2025-12-29, version 2.9.1*

Spain is an EU country but this bank doesn’t allow you to use EU ID card to open a bank account.

### 5/5 — Great bank

*2026-01-23, version 2.9.1*

Never had any real problems and had an account with Openbank for over 5 years. Only downside is the lack of English speaking advisors and sometimes have to wait a few days for them to call you back

### 5/5 — Gut und unkompliziert

*2026-01-22*

Die Applikation funktioniert einwandfrei, ist sehr sicher und schnell.
