  1. [R1] CEFCU Mobile Banking 1/5 · US Boo: Liked the old style better. Having to refresh the accounts page every time is a hassle.
  2. [R2] CEFCU Mobile Banking 4/5 · US Very Handy: Yes I would recommend this app as a convenient tool to have when out and about 👍
  3. [R5] CEFCU Mobile Banking 5/5 · US So easy and convenient: Awesome crfcu app
  4. [R7] CEFCU Mobile Banking 1/5 · US Horrible: Probably the worst user interface of any mobile banking app I’ve ever seen.
  5. [R3] CEFCU Mobile Banking 3/5 · US It ain’t the best: Slow moving with long transfer times to external accounts. Not sure why Zelle or something is not offered either. Overall it’s not as bad as it used to be but it’s not as good as some.
  6. [R4] CEFCU Mobile Banking 2/5 · US Doesn’t show current balance!: Fairly decent app, the thing I don’t like about it is that you have to figure out the balance in your account as the “pending”transactions are not deducted from your display balance! IAA Credit Union has an incredible app and does this for me which is so much more convenient! I don’t know why they ask to rate the app again and again when nothing changes with the app.
  7. [R6] CEFCU Mobile Banking 3/5 · US Nah: Decent app but I wish it would update faster when you pull money out of account.
  8. [R13] CEFCU Mobile Banking 1/5 · US Needs updating: The functionality of this app is limited. You should be able to see your true current balance at all times. Yet it takes 2-3 business days for transactions to post before it updates. If I do a withdrawal on the weekend, my account balance should reflect that.
  9. [R9] CEFCU Mobile Banking 3/5 · US Mobile Deposit: Mobile Deposit rarely works.
  10. [R19] CEFCU Mobile Banking 2/5 · US Very good: I’ve used this app for years with no issues whatsoever until lately. I have tried to deposit a check on the app and the check has a preprinted message for mobile deposit. I checked the box for mobile deposit and submitted the check via the app. It has been rejected 3 times stating the check is not marked for mobile deposit.
  11. [R75] Langley Mobile Banking 3/5 · US Easy to use but....: I love using this app. I think that it is user-friendly and easy to navigate. My only qualm is that the mobile deposit has not worked for me since December.
  12. [R90] Langley Mobile Banking 1/5 · US Mobile check deposit: The mobile check deposit is broken 90% of the time
  13. [R15] CEFCU Mobile Banking 3/5 · US Much improved: Way more stable than prior versions!
  14. [R16] CEFCU Mobile Banking 1/5 · US Terrible app: There are way to many issues with this app including accessibility, balances not accurate , with draws missing. I’ve even had it showing it was gonna withdraw a loan payment two weeks in a row which I sent a message . No this has been a terrible experience so much so I’m gonna leave the credit union once loan is payed off
  15. [R25] CEFCU Mobile Banking 1/5 · US Doesn’t always open: It goes through Face ID and spins. After 20-30 seconds it doesn’t open and have to try later.
  16. [R67] Langley Mobile Banking 1/5 · US Keeps asking verification that I’m a human: Keeps asking verification that I’m a human
  17. [R22] CEFCU Mobile Banking 1/5 · US Wayne McPherson: The app totally stinks! Hard to find ways to make payments! Very confusing!!!!!
  18. [R61] Langley Mobile Banking 1/5 · US Len: The bill pay sucks on the app and locks up. Might have to switch banks.
  19. [R73] Langley Mobile Banking 2/5 · US Receiving Zelle payments: Why does the help section contain how to receive a Zelle payment
  20. [R11] CEFCU Mobile Banking 4/5 · US Fraud alert: Setting fraud alert at high levels without advising the customer is an embarrassing practice. My credit card is constantly blocked for what is called suspicious activity when I am out and about in my community I am constantly calling fraud department to advise them of attempts I make to purchase items. I have been with Cefcu for almost a decade I would give you 5 star but unable to du
  21. [R35] CEFCU Mobile Banking 5/5 · US Review: Excellent website with great security!

  23. [R42] CEFCU Mobile Banking 5/5 · US I love the convenience and security: This keeps me safe and making my banking simpler
  24. [R18] CEFCU Mobile Banking 3/5 · US Rather average: I have used other bank apps that show available funds after pending transactions. I find that more sensible.
  25. [R27] CEFCU Mobile Banking 2/5 · US Pending spending: I can’t stand that my card will decline due to insufficient funds due to slow processing of prior purchases. It will show me I have X amount of money but I actually don’t. This is a problem for my friends who are users of the app as well
  26. [R94] Langley Mobile Banking 1/5 · US 👎: bad !! can't deposit my checks mobile and the app has so many bugs and restrictions playing with YOUR money
  27. [R76] Langley Mobile Banking 1/5 · US Bill pay: This app just sucks. Ever since LFCU transitioned to the new bill pay, linking to ebills is inconsistent and unreliable. Now the new update has a terrible activity view. Is someone telling you to make these changes? If they are, stop listening.
  28. [R78] Langley Mobile Banking 3/5 · US Bill paying: Bill payment options is not good enough to use.
  29. [R84] Langley Mobile Banking 3/5 · US Bill pay: Have always loved Langley but the new bill pay is terrible.
