User reviews

NOT FREE! SCAM DOES NOT ADHERE TO APP TOS

About a week after I tried the app, it shuts down and shows the following: We're sorry, but it appears your app is inactive.
We want you to join the RateAlert family and we want to help save your deals.
Please call 404-6xx-1xx3
to activate.

App comes with spam calls

Only app I’ve ever downloaded where someone calls me to discuss the app and ask if I have any questions. This is not a service I think many people would appreciate.

Doesn’t work

The app doesn’t work anymore. I’ve deleted it 3 times and tried to reinstall it but there is just a blank white screen.

Lock Advice doesn’t work

I love this app however for last week the Lock Advice does not work- you push play and nothing happens. Software is up to date so not sure why it stoped working but was a useful tool

App won't open

Note sure of it is the app update or the iOS update, but the app now just crashes when trying to open. 5-stars when it works, but the app is currently useless. Please fix.
