### 1/5 — Never Works( Needs a serious look)

*2026-07-23, version 4022.0.0*

Hi, we have been long time customers and have banked with Sandia Area FCU for about 15 years.. This app is horrible, the features like Mobile Deposit and even viewing transactions history always end in error message.. Mobile banking is very important these days, for there are no Sandia locations outside of NM. I think this app needs a serious revamp and overhaul.. Judging from the 2.7 star rating, I’m not the only one having problems… 
Thank You

### 1/5 — Outdated

*2026-07-03, version 4021.2.0*

When doing a mobile check deposit and following instructions it fails to mention there’s a limit to what you can deposit. So you may ruin a check by endorsing it as the instructions state.

### 2/5 — Major Glitch

*2026-04-17, version 4020.2.0*

There is a big glitch where the app does not actually log you out when you think it did. After logging out and closing the app, days later when opening the app again it still shows my accounts as if I had never logged out. Please fix this as it is a security issue.

### 5/5 — 👍🏼

*2026-03-01, version 4020.0.0*

Nice and convenient.

### 1/5 — Awful

*2025-12-03, version 4018.1.1*

It has simple navigation, that’s all I’m going to give it, other than that it’s going to make me go delinquent on my car payment, linking accounts is super broken and the customer service line is like a damn labyrinth to navigate through

### 4/5 — Apple app

*2025-08-12, version 4018.0.0*

Would like to easily see my son’s account with my log in for ease of transfer.

### 1/5 — Poorly Run App

*2025-03-03, version 4013.2.0*

I’m a very tech savvy, and this app is one of the worst due to its glitches and bugs. You’re better off going to the website to do anything. They recommend adding it at the bank but to be honest it’s only good for looking at your current balance. Everything else causes the app to bug out.

### 3/5 — Zelle and linked accounts broken

*2025-03-02, version 4013.2.0*

It’s the same app that just about every credit union uses and it’s a decent app, but a couple features seem to be bugged in Sandia’s version. I am unable to even initiate a Zelle transfer, getting an error message when I click the link, and even though my linked accounts show in my transfer menu, they do not show up in the main page. I hope Sandia will fix this because I really like them as a credit union.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work

*2024-09-28, version 4013.2.0*

Blank screen when opening the app and never loads.

### 2/5 — App very unreliable, just like the credit union

*2024-09-06, version 4013.2.0*

App is clunky and rarely works properly. Today, it wouldn't display the transactions on the credit card, happens about half the time. The credit union itself is the worst I have encountered in ABQ, they have so many problems. Will be closing my account soon.
