Needs ability to set up automatic payments for car loan and ability to pay towards principal in app. Not as user friendly as the Toyota Financial app. Please look at the Toyota financial app for design and user-friendly improvements.
  4. [R42] UCCU Mobile 2/5 · US Auto-pay credit cards: Essentially every other major bank has a feature on their app to auto-pay a minimum payment on their credit cards. And/or a scheduled amount. I’d really like to see that feature added.
  5. [R8] UCCU Mobile 5/5 · US Easy User Interface: I love using UCCU Mobile, it makes managing finances and preventing fraud easy and secure.
  6. [R13] UCCU Mobile 1/5 · US No estoy a gusto con la aplicación: No entiendo por qué. La. Aplicación no tiene la opción. Para. Español , por qué. Las. Letras. Son tan pequeñas y. Es. Muy iluminado a vemos muchos clientes. Que. Somos latinos. Y muchos que tenemos problemas a la vista
  7. [R14] UCCU Mobile 5/5 · US Easy to use!: Convenient and quick.
  8. [R24] UCCU Mobile 2/5 · US Clunky app, it almost makes me want to switch banks: I’ve been banking with UCCU since my parents opened a bank account for me like 35 years ago. No complaints about the credit union itself but the app and desktop platform are pretty bad by today’s standards. Which I guess is 95% of my interactions with the institution so my impression of them is heading south quickly. My app frequently glitches o
  9. [R3] UCCU Mobile 3/5 · US Needs improvement: Constant errors and difficulties
  10. [R4] UCCU Mobile 1/5 · US Awful: This app works but it sucks because it’s messing things up all the time and you can’t change any of your info without going in person and ya
  11. [R6] UCCU Mobile 3/5 · US Buggy: The app has bugs. Sometimes it scans my face twice. Sometimes my bank accounts don’t show up when I need to transfer money. Overall it’s not reliable and it’s a gamble if it will work each time.
  12. [R9] UCCU Mobile 3/5 · US Love UCCU... Not their app: I've banked with UCCU for more than a decade. I have never had any complaints or issues and have loved being a member. However, this app is so annoying to use. It takes FOREVER just to get into the app. It doesn't matter if I'm using wifi or my cellular data. I login and sit watching the loading circle for SO long before it opens. I usually have to swipe up on the app a
  13. [R10] UCCU Mobile 1/5 · US Very very bad: The biggest thing anyone would want to use a mobile banking app for is to transfer money. This app is absolutely terrible at transfers. It won’t load properly, doesn’t scroll without bringing the whole page with you and is all around a pretty bad app. We have considered switching banks because of how bad the app is.
  14. [R22] UCCU Mobile 1/5 · US Sketchy: They don’t honor their sign-up bonuses. Customer support will tell you they’re going to call you back and then never actually do it.
  15. [R26] UCCU Mobile 1/5 · US Poorly designed with bad UX: I love the in-branch experience. Amazing service, friendly and helpful people! But your app is poorly designed, and the experience is terrible. I’d switch all of my banking to UCCU but the app sucks so bad that I can’t do it. Most of my banking is done on my phone, so because the app is terrible I can’t make the switch.
  16. [R17] UCCU Mobile 5/5 · US So personal and professional: I recently had some unauthorized activity and went to our local branch and was so impressed.
  17. [R40] UCCU Mobile 1/5 · US Buggy as can be: Almost every time that you try to message customer service in the app, it gives an error and won’t work. Reboot the app? Still doesn’t work. Install and reinstall? Nope. Will it randomly work after trying 10 times throughout the day, sometimes
  18. [R28] UCCU Mobile 2/5 · US Not user-friendly: Not user-friendly. Extremely difficult to login and find something as simple as amount owed on loan for the current month. This app desperately needs to be improved.
  19. [R36] UCCU Mobile 2/5 · US Functional, but poor UX: This app does the job but it’s a constant source of irritation to use. Menus are awkward, login doesn’t really “Remember Me”, and I get served ads in login. UCCU should really do a major overhaul.
  20. [R16] UCCU Mobile 1/5 · US Update: Horrible. I just did the update and now I can’t do ANY transfers from any account to any other joint account. Please fix this immediately.
  21. [R18] UCCU Mobile 2/5 · US Transferring Issues: I am consistently having issues transferring funds from different accounts in the app. It will not generate a name in the drop down tab, it freezes, and they are all blank tabs. Then I have to turn my phone off. If that doesn’t reset it. I have to download the app again and start over.
