### 1/5 — Verification and transaction issue

*2023-12-04*

I have been using this app since three months and now the transaction is not possible so I reinstalled the app. Now the biggest problem is verification otp is invalid. Even after trying multiple times with correct opt received it shows invalid otp.

### 1/5 — The apps never opens

*2023-04-07*

Could you please make some changes in the app so that it opens up 
Its crashing again and again or gets stuck in login only 

Or tell me other ways to transfer money without the app ? 
🙏

### 1/5 — Review

*2023-02-21*

One of the worst bank server app which i haven been used. It will not be working  when it’s necessary there is no statement to chek. You want to go bank offenly when you are in island its not easy to go and take money from bank. So try to update as soon as possible.

### 2/5 — App crashing

*2021-05-02*

App is crashing . Asking to reinstall .
After reinstalling , again crashing , asking to contact bank administrator

**Developer response:** Dear Customer,
We highly regret the inconvenience. Please try to install the app. In case you still encounter the issue, please write to us on inb.sbimale@statebank.com and we will get in touch with you to resolve the issue.

### 1/5 — Disastrous !!

*2020-12-23*

I’ve already login and time to time this app asking for a new startup !! Tired of giving customer id and password !! Then you’d be prompting for an OTP and you never gonna get that !!!

**Developer response:** Dear customer, please activate MPIN facility inorder to directly login to the application.

### 1/5 — Unresponsive and poor UI

*2020-07-02*

It was a much awaited app, but not meeting the expectations. It is quite unresponsive and the UI also poor. Even with the high speed internet connection, the interaction with server is lagging. Expecting some improvements in the recent updations in the nearby future.....

**Developer response:** Dear Customer , We apologize for the experience you had  . We would like to inform you that we have done some fine tuning to the application now . Kindly download the updated version . Hope you will have a much better experience this time .

*2026-04-02*

After updating Kyc and also multiple complains given via mail still account is freeze difficult for persons who is on vacation and can’t use the banking app

### 1/5 — Worst of the worst

*2026-02-15*

The bank is using old fashion OTP and paper work but OTP service is not available everytime. What a cheap standard service which is like a clown. For new users, don't ever use this cheap standard bank.

### 1/5 — App issue

*2026-02-13*

If there is an option for negative 5 start i would have opted that rating, i have never ever frustrated more than this by using an app, the app is seriously freaking disgusting please close and find another job.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2025-09-12*

I regret updating the app now it says it is registered in other device not able to open the app now

### 1/5 — Poor software

*2025-04-02*

A very very worst banking software ever I used. After several times send the otp then only I received a OTP for login and same for fund transactions. Why two times otp verification I don’t know. Need a fastest software verification Like BML.

### 1/5 — Worst app ever

*2025-02-01*

The worst bank application ever. Waiting time for each OTP code is too long for each time. Multiple OTP request.
Sometime OTP service is out of function.
Never seen that bad before.

### 1/5 — Very very slow and irritating app

*2024-01-03*

It’s ashamed to say that this app belongs to a major banker of India . Very very slow in processing transactions and also very slow and irritating to get otp to complete the transactions. It’s taking minimum 7 minutes to complete a transaction.
