  1. [R4] General Electric Credit Union 1/5 · US Awful: I’m all for updating apps and evolving them for the better, but this last update is a disaster. It honestly feels like someone’s kid has a class project to design a new app and this is the result. The old app was easy to navigate and had a straightforward interface. This app seems like it was designed by someone who has never paid a bill online.
  2. [R6] General Electric Credit Union 3/5 · US Latest update: Hate it… I have to Thule more screens to get to where I want to be. I cannot see all my pending payments on on screen anymore. I loved what I had. Why did you change it?! Please put things back where you had it.
  3. [R10] General Electric Credit Union 1/5 · US New App Layout: New layout sucks, tried to make a loan payment but it kept taking me to the “pay with your GE account” option. I do not have a bank account with GE and i could not find the option to pay my loan with my saved outside account like i used to eventually I gave up and had to log in to the actual website just to pay.
  4. [R11] General Electric Credit Union 5/5 · US Easy to use!: GECU has taken online banking to a more user friendly level, with this app, it is easy to look at your account(s), to see what transactions have cleared. Thank you for making this a breeze!
  5. [R1] General Electric Credit Union 1/5 · US Can’t use it: Can’t make a payment app doesn’t work. Just always pops up call the bank to move money. What’s the point in having an app at all?
  6. [R7] General Electric Credit Union 1/5 · US Make paying account easier: I want to make a payment, don’t tell me there’s no eligible accounts, let me add an account with out giving me an error screen.
  7. [R9] General Electric Credit Union 3/5 · US Works when it wants to: Sometimes it works sometimes it dont this is what wee have to look forward to with banking wanting to go digital. And they wonder why ppl are pushing ti keep physical currency around
  8. [R19] General Electric Credit Union 1/5 · US Can’t pay auto loan: After the last update, I am no longer able to pay my auto loan from within the app.
  9. [R3] General Electric Credit Union 3/5 · US No option for principle only payment: The app is fairly easy enough to navigate, but it would be extremely beneficial and a time saver to add the option of making a principle payment. It’s a hassle to have to call in order to make a principle only payment.
  10. [R2] General Electric Credit Union 5/5 · US A+++: Great bank/credit union I have been a member for over 35 years, best and cheapest rates always, my go to bank!
  11. [R14] General Electric Credit Union 5/5 · US I love this bank: I love this bank
  12. [R12] General Electric Credit Union 3/5 · US IPhone 14 ios16: camera not working for deposits
  13. [R26] General Electric Credit Union 1/5 · US Will not let you pay: I just recently had to download this app to pay something off and every single time you click “mobile deposit” the entire app shuts down. EVERY. TIME. I cannot use the app to pay ever I always to open a web browser. Pointless app.
  14. [R31] General Electric Credit Union 5/5 · US Mobile deposit problem: iPhone 11, just updated to IOS 16.1, cannot do mobile deposit because the camera screen gets stuck at “turn your phone to take a picture” or something like that. Tried a restart and a reinstall with no luck. I didn’t have this issue before IOS 16. So I’m thinking that’s what caused it.
  15. [R33] General Electric Credit Union 5/5 · US Mobile Deposit Not Working: Camera on mobile deposit messed up not allowing mobile deposits.
  16. [R61] CommunityAmerica Credit Union 1/5 · US Too many bugs: Last update required to login multiple times. The current app won’t open the keyboard. This app is clunky and never smooth.
  17. [R63] CommunityAmerica Credit Union 3/5 · US App closes out after putting in password: Have to have this app because it's my bank but it's very frustrating that my app closes every single time I put in my password and enter, just immediately kicks me out of the app. It's a fine app besides this bug.
  18. [R66] CommunityAmerica Credit Union 3/5 · US Crashes: Over the last month starting in June I tried to open the app and it crashes. Sometimes two or three times before it will finally open.
  19. [R76] CommunityAmerica Credit Union 1/5 · US Keeps closing: The apps keeps closing without fully opening. Enter login information then immediately closes. You have to try 3-7 times before it actually opens. Please fix this. It has been doing this for months. It does the same to my son that has a different phone and different wireless carrier
  20. [R16] General Electric Credit Union 1/5 · US I hate this app so much I’m closing all my accounts and reporting to BBB: I don’t know what idiot you have working on this app but he needs to go. Stop moving stuff around. It’s impossible to even make auto loan payments. I’ve been trying to make a payment all weekend. I’m calling Monday to transfer all my money. Don’t bother. I’m so very frustrated. Don’t bother calling either. These cheap loser
