  1. [R1] Nusenda CU-Mobile Banking 1/5 · US Jromero: This app is glitching and requires me to restart my phone to log in after the first initial session of the day.
  2. [R4] Nusenda CU-Mobile Banking 1/5 · US BAD QUALITY APP: app is always down, takes sooo long to unlock the card
  3. [R5] Nusenda CU-Mobile Banking 4/5 · US App: App gives a little trouble being slow over all good
  4. [R7] Nusenda CU-Mobile Banking 1/5 · US Does not work: Useless and does not work
  5. [R2] Nusenda CU-Mobile Banking 5/5 · US Best banking App to Ever: I love Nusenda App! It’s so Easy to navigate!
  6. [R10] Nusenda CU-Mobile Banking 2/5 · US Bleh: I thought the app was pretty lackluster on android but on iPhone it’s completely terrible. It’s down for maintenance literally every other day if you sign into the app and then close it and then go to open it back up. It glitches and you have to go in and close out the app completely and then restart it and sign in again. It’s just clunky and not very well designed for Apple.
  7. [R19] Nusenda CU-Mobile Banking 2/5 · US Update this please: The app icon is blurry and has been for years. Every time I open the app I have to close it out and reopen to login. Modern banking apps look so much better.
  8. [R24] Nusenda CU-Mobile Banking 3/5 · US Nice app: It’s decent. Glitches when you’re trying to get back onto it sometimes though. Finding information through so much buttons is a little bit of a struggle sometimes. But it’s nice when it works.
  9. [R3] Nusenda CU-Mobile Banking 3/5 · US More features needed: Very simple banking app. It would be nice if it gave more usage insight or the ability to memo transactions. The app works great, but perhaps the bank wants to limit the user's information interface.
  10. [R12] Nusenda CU-Mobile Banking 3/5 · US One Issue I’ve Had: This app works well and is fairly easy to use and navigate. I’ve had it for years with almost no issues with one exception. I changed my phone number years ago and have tried many times to update it through the app but it doesn’t work. When I need to verify my identity for any reason my options are completely reduced because it wants to use my old phone number. I have spoken to
  11. [R18] Nusenda CU-Mobile Banking 3/5 · US No frills: No frills, I wish it had a function to easily make notes for each transaction
  12. [R33] Nusenda CU-Mobile Banking 1/5 · US App is user surly!: Changes are steps backwards rather than improvements. Bill Payer is a complete mess. I dread every update Nusenda does’
  13. [R9] Nusenda CU-Mobile Banking 3/5 · US New customer: Customer service is very good we’d larger font
  14. [R11] Nusenda CU-Mobile Banking 5/5 · US Excellent in helping with Banking needs: I have been with Nusenda for approximately 5 years and your Credit Employees are top notch to help and Bar none the best. Kudos!!
  15. [R25] Nusenda CU-Mobile Banking 2/5 · US Many quirks with opening App: I have been with Nusenda for 15+ years. This app is not real reliable…inconsistent with functioning. Often it will not open, or the window slides far right on the screen…can’t function. Nusenda has exceptional customer service via calls, but this app spoils my convenience to my money. Please update fixes and make this app great again!
  16. [R52] Nusenda CU-Mobile Banking 5/5 · US Great: Makes everything so easy and at my fingertips my disability keeps me from driving sometimes and the staff are amazingly so helpful when I need help !!!!! Thank You
  17. [R41] Nusenda CU-Mobile Banking 1/5 · US Genuinely is never up or working: The app is never up or is constantly broken
  18. [R61] Navy Federal Credit Union 2/5 · US Always under maintenance: WHYYYY is this app constantly under maintenance? I try to open in and half the time I can't even check my account or transfer money because they're "conducting scheduled maintenance." I've never dealt with a banking app or any app like this where it's always undergoing some sort of service, like this is so frequent that it has irritated me enough to the point of writing a
  19. [R84] Navy Federal Credit Union 3/5 · US Good but could be great…: First let me say, I love my navy federal app. It’s easy to use, information is clear and I generally just like the interface, but there needs to be better strides in customization and options for editing accounts. One of my biggest gripes is the new “my savings goals” advertised as an easy way to save money and create savings groups for things you want. In theory this is
  20. [R88] Navy Federal Credit Union 1/5 · US Not friendly: Transaction categories are wrong and can't be turned off and even worse, can't be corrected, so my water bill is marked as "dining".
  21. [R73] Navy Federal Credit Union 1/5 · US Won’t Let me Login: The app is terrible!!! I have been unable to login since I got my account. I have reset my password multiple times but for some reason the app doesn’t recognize my account. I can login online perfectly so there is something wrong with that app. If I could give it 0 stars I would!!!
