  1. [R3] City National Bank of Florida 3/5 · US Zelle crashing: I will update review when they fix this problem, but every time I try to open the Zelle tab the app crashes. It’s happening on my IOS, because the Android version is working fine…
  2. [R4] City National Bank of Florida 1/5 · US Friday Tradition: Every Friday both the mobile app and website are always down.

  3. [R6] City National Bank of Florida 3/5 · US Weak App: Something is always broken on this app. Zelle is down 25% of the time. After you take picture of deposit it asks you to look at picture 3 times. When I call they tell me to try tomorrow.

  10. [R12] City National Bank of Florida 3/5 · US Functional but Lacking: This app is very good for checking your balances and paying bills.

  11. [R17] City National Bank of Florida 5/5 · US Remote Check Deposit: RDC is very convenient and easy to use.
