### 2/5 — Latest update zapped my login information

*2026-06-28, version 2026.25.1*

All other apps keep the phone date this latest one zapped my login details not impressed

### 4/5 — Great app - with a pesky bug

*2026-01-07*

Overall like the app, it works generally. But there is a bug. If you access the app via the phone mirroring it disables Face ID but you can’t re-enable on the phone! The only way is to remove the app and reinstall and you get the option again.

**Developer response:** Thank you for taking the time to leave this review. We're glad that you do like the app. We'll be sure to pass your feedback regarding the bug you've highlighted to our team - Steve

### 2/5 — Details not recognised

I couldn’t use it and therefore my card. My user name was not recognised and I wasn’t able to change it!

### 1/5 — Update

Update non responsive

### 1/5 — Not recommended

*2025-04-25, version 2025.15.1*

I have set direct debit before I go to Thailand as I used a balance transfer free interest rate for 6 months  and I don’t know how is not working and I miss 1 or 2 days payment as son as I noticed I made a payment straightaway but they have cancelled my promotion and charged me a high interest rate

### 1/5 — You charge too much

*2025-04-16, version 2025.15.1*

You are make a fortune for nothing

### 4/5 — *Updated*

*2025-04-15*

The problem with logging in was fixed with a new update within a day or two.

### 1/5 — Broken since last update

*2025-04-02, version 2025.13.3*

Since yesterday’s update, the app won’t let me log in, so I have to use the website. Hopefully this will get fixed soon?

### 1/5 — Pay by Card Gone

*2025-04-01, version 2025.13.3*

Shockingly bad!! The only credit card I know of that has a “work around” to pay balances (quickly) by card.

### 2/5 — iOS 18.4 App stop working

App not opening with IOS 18.4

*2025-03-31, version 2025.13.3*

Can’t login into the app

### 1/5 — Making a payment

*2025-03-10, version 2025.10.1*

When making a payment to your card it is very difficult when your bank is not a the list of banks, finding the pay by debit card is very awkward.

### 1/5 — Can’t get on the app

*2025-03-07, version 2025.9.1*

Failed to get passcode challenge keeps coming up, doesn’t give me chance to put any letters or numbers in.

### 1/5 — Unsafe

*2026-07-12, version 2026.27.1*

Totally unsafe card, it gets randomly block and then operators can't unblock it because the system is down.

### 1/5 — What a palaver!

*2026-07-07, version 2026.27.1*

Logged out for no reason. What a headache trying to log back in. This app would give an Aspirin a migraine

### 1/5 — App keeps logging me out

*2026-06-25, version 2026.25.1*

App keeps logging me out

### 1/5 — Jacqui Cole

*2025-10-29, version 2025.42.1*

This app is now not working since the last update!! I cannot access my account at all so will have to remove it from my Amazon account!

### 1/5 — Security issues

*2025-10-02, version 2025.38.1*

Very unsafe site, one needs to go through all 4 security steps before can use it (username, email, password, otp). All other financial institutions require max 3 steps, what indicates that Pulse is extremly unsafe.

### 1/5 — reminders

*2025-07-01, version 2025.25.1*

you don’t send an email reminding of the payment date but then send one when it’s overdue. A lot of payments wouldn’t go overdue if you sent an email beforehand. Bad customer service.

### 1/5 — Late payment

*2025-05-17, version 2025.18.2*

One day late for the first time ever and was charged £12 late fee.
