### 4/5 — VERY SLOW

*2026-03-30, version 5.0.0*

I can wait half hour to get the app to open 🤷‍♀️

### 2/5 — Customise

*2025-11-15, version 5.0.0*

Keep trying to change order of accounts but it just revers back to what it was

### 2/5 — Buggy and inconvenient

*2025-11-12, version 5.0.0*

The “account customisation” feature keeps undoing my rearranged account list back to the default order, which is incorrect. It’s also showing the wrong default account. Login is slow and often fails. The new features sound good in theory but are riddled with bugs. Please fix.

### 2/5 — Old app was better

*2025-09-06, version 4.9.0*

This app is awful to use compared to the old one. The sign in and getting into the accounts page is a longer process than it should be, it often defaults back to a standard payment not OSKO so if you forget to doublecheck you can’t instantly receive your money into an external account. Annoying to use and needs to be more user-friendly. Should also have the option to receive notification when money is deposited.

### 2/5 — Clunky and full of bugs

*2025-04-08, version 4.9.0*

Terrible app full of bugs. Log on goes straight to log off screen without account details. Facial recognition on my iPhone keeps deactivating for no reason.

### 2/5 — New Upgrade is a letdown

*2024-12-11, version 4.7.1*

The new upgrades visual appeal is worse than the previous version. It does not show you any of your account numbers making things very confusing when trying to move money between your accounts.

### 1/5 — Why-o-why?

*2024-12-02, version 4.7.1*

When I transfer money from one of my savings accounts to another savings account, and I write a ‘Description’ for the transfer (I.e. ‘Shopping’), why doesn’t that description appear in the transfer history in the account I transferred from?

### 3/5 — Notifications needed

*2024-11-27, version 4.7.0*

Needs a notification when money is deposited into my account

### 2/5 — What even is this update

*2024-11-22, version 4.7.0*

This update is counterintuitive. You’ve created so many extra unnecessary steps. And instead of logging in and seeing my bank I log in and immediately nearly log straight back out as that’s the ONLY OPTION on the front page. SO STUPID. When I log in, it should pop up with my accounts straight away. You’ve moved everything, it’s SO much harder to use now. CHANGE IT BACK.

### 3/5 — No push notifications

*2024-11-21, version 4.7.0*

This new app is perfect and suits my banking needs but use need to add push notifications in  to keep update with my payments and when a direct deposit hits my account ✌️

### 1/5 — App upgrade

*2024-11-20, version 4.7.0*

I am not enjoying the new app upgrade. It isn’t free flowing, seems clunky, and I feel that I’m having to take more steps to transfer money or access accounts than on the previous version. I would be very happy for the old version to return.

### 1/5 — Painful update

*2024-11-20, version 4.7.0*

Terrible update,
Home page when you first login is useless. All saved payees have reverted to standard transfer and to fix you must delete the payee and re-add making sure you choose osko as it defaults to standard. No assistance available from the bank in correcting.
The new app seems less intuitive than the previous version.

### 1/5 — It won’t install

*2024-11-18, version 4.7.0*

Two days in, I still can’t get this to install on my phone or my IPad. I’ve deleted it and reloaded it multiple times. It just won’t work. Fail.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Frustrating

*2026-04-07, version 5.0.0*

No matter how hard I try I can’t access this app. U/n is correct. P/w is correct but still no joy. Same goes for my Visa card. Contacted the help line but I only had one 24 hr ration pack to use as I waited and had to terminate the call. 30 minutes of my life I’ll never get back. New is not always better.

### 1/5 — New app not as good

*2025-11-11, version 5.0.0*

I can’t move my main accounts that I use to the top of the screen when I log in. Old app was better.

### 1/5 — App not working.

*2025-10-25, version 4.9.0*

Trying to transfer $?? all day and I get site down or something like that. Then I google you and after jumping through hoops yet again I finally managed my transfer

### 1/5 — Bring back old app

*2025-10-23, version 4.9.0*

This app is terrible. Too clunky to get to accounts; when you make a payment it goes back to all accounts screen instead of the account you were in; and the biggest fault is standard payment is the default instead of OSKO. If you forget to double check payment method, it goes through as standard and you have to wait a couple of days for it to go to another account. WHY WOULDN’T it be OSKO as default? No notification that this was the case with new app so had to transfer $1400 twice because first was a standard payment and it was Friday after 7 so had to wait till the following Tuesday to get the first $1400. 
Not happy, if there is going to be an update at least it should be better than the last app version.

### 1/5 — Why is Osko now gone?

*2025-09-07, version 4.9.0*

Osko payment methods have disappeared??. I have time sensitive payments due on my payday which I now have to log in on the browser to ensure same day delivery. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

### 1/5 — Trashy app

*2025-03-28, version 4.7.1*

My app doesn’t even open. Delete doesn’t delete it as it’s stored on cloud as the same dodgy app

### 1/5 — Useless

*2025-02-27, version 4.7.1*

Never works!

### 1/5 — You killed it

*2025-01-18, version 4.7.1*

Was working just fine until the latest update….app freezes, no biometric login…back to logging in online…sounds awfully familiar with this app

### 1/5 — Slight improvement but more clunky

*2025-01-02, version 4.7.1*

This new update is clunky. You login to a blank page instead of all accounts being displayed.
Yesterday I lost the ability to use biometric login saying my new iPhone 16 did not support biometric login!!! I tried reactivating it only got it to be deactivated again. 
Very disappointing that this is the best Police Bank could come up with after the previous useless App.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2024-12-03, version 4.7.1*

Why why …… would you go to market with a new portal to your services that has not been tested obviously and is so problematic with numerous different issues???? 
Reading other reviews it’s not one problem it’s multiple since it’s been launched !!!!
