- [R3] SF Fire CU Mobile Banking Needs FedNow for instant payment!: There are few credit unions like Redwood credit union and Sacramento credit union who are ready supporting FedNow service for instant P2P payments. Since SF Fire Cu does not support Zelle, would be great if it integrates with FedNow. Things to consider.
- [R4] SF Fire CU Mobile Banking How do you Zelle: They list on their website that you can use Zelle through their app, that there’s a place to send a Zelle in the navigation bar, but it is not there. I cannot find where to Zelle in the app at all.
- [R5] SF Fire CU Mobile Banking App is to use: I find the app easy to use and navigate. I can do remote check deposit transfers funds pay bills all through the app. Has features to block my card and get a new card if it’s lost or stolen and travel notes
- [R10] SF Fire CU Mobile Banking Where is Zelle?: Where is the Zelle button? It's not in the "bottom navigation bar." And the "contact support" button doesn't work at all. I've updated the app, so why does it still have these bugs?
- [R8] SF Fire CU Mobile Banking My favorite mobile app for banking!: The app is easy to use and helps me manage my money effortlessly.
- [R9] SF Fire CU Mobile Banking Logout: Logout should be near the top of menu so I don’t have to scroll to find it.
- [R11] SF Fire CU Mobile Banking Great app!: Honestly very user friendly & zero negative feedback back
- [R1] SF Fire CU Mobile Banking Worst app ever - I’m leaving this bank: The app never remembers my password, even though it’s saved in my keychain on my iphone. Even when I put it in manually it doesn’t work 50% of the time (I get a notification that it is wrong, which I 100% know is incorrect!!!) and I end up locked out of my account. The work around is changing my password which I have done nearly weekly. I have been in touch
- [R14] SF Fire CU Mobile Banking Issue syncing transactions: Recently began getting error message about "not all transactions have been sync". App asks me to log out for 10 minutes and sign back in. Will sometimes fix the issue but only temporarily.
- [R16] SF Fire CU Mobile Banking Keeps getting worse: A few years back the all switched to a new version that appears to be a bunch of web views. The app experience keeps getting worse and worse for a few reasons. 1. The login screen never works with apples password manager. Unheard of for as long as it’s been out. 2. Once I manually look up the password, it doesn’t paste into the password field correctly. 3. The issue is
- [R18] SF Fire CU Mobile Banking Constantly doesn’t use Face ID.: Unreliable. The app doesn’t use the technology coded into it, & usually at the worst time
- [R7] SF Fire CU Mobile Banking App is fine, deposit time is horrendous: It takes up to a week (sometimes more!) for electronic deposits to clear. Totally unacceptable in this day and a deal breaker for using this once fantastic credit union.
- [R30] SF Fire CU Mobile Banking Poorly designed app: Currently forces landscape orientation. No option for text or email 2FA. Slow, clunky UI that is not easy to use. Internal member-to-member transfers take HOURS to process.
- [R76] Wright-Patt CU Mobile Banking Credit Cards: All of the changes made to the credit card account are not for the consumer. We used to be able to make payments and see our balances go down instantly similar to how we can with loans. This has been the biggest drawback of all the changes. The app also glitches a lot which it never used to do. You have to select a button multiple times and it’s almost like it doesn’t register it.
- [R90] Wright-Patt CU Mobile Banking Update is trash: The has been terrible for atleast 6 months as a member of 5 years and have had the app and kept up to date its progressively gotten worse. At times the accounts take 6 hours to update balances and alerts are about useless bc they take equally as long. Sign in trouble and transferring issues. The app needs taken down for a week so you guys can actually fix it. Extremely disappointe
- [R21] SF Fire CU Mobile Banking Zelle elusive: It was exciting when the credit union announced that members could use Zelle from sffcu. I updated to the latest version and suddenly all the instructions for using Zelle point to nothing visible in the app. My feedback in the app received no response. Finally I was able to cal customer service to learn that I had an international status on my account that made Zelle disappear.
- [R26] SF Fire CU Mobile Banking Horrible when updating and communication with its customers.: When the SF Fire Credit Union updates or revamps the app, there are always problems. If you don’t have apples latest operating system, you are screwed. The women on the phone said every bank is like that, but my other banking apps still work. I have an iPhone 13 and it is only one operating system behind and the SFFCU app doesn’t work.
- [R32] SF Fire CU Mobile Banking Face ID doesn’t work 95% of the time: So annoying. I enable Face ID, and it works on other apps that offer this. But the credit union’s app is so buggy that it doesn’t work the majority of the time.
- [R60] SF Fire CU Mobile Banking Times out after update: Login to app and go to transfers, you get kicked out of application immediately. Unusable in this way. Did some more checking and app times out only if Face ID used to login. With manual login it works fine. Please fix Face ID login.
- [R61] Wright-Patt CU Mobile Banking My WP App review: This app is not good. It’s slow and the credit card balances or payments are not updated fast enough. Some accounts do not show the correct remaining balance. It used to be better before. Now it’s trash.
- [R78] Wright-Patt CU Mobile Banking Catch Up: Agree with others being bummed about widgets not working with the latest iOS… I knew it’d be a slower fix than other bigger companies, but it’s been months now and still no mention of a planned update to get up to speed…?
- [R81] Wright-Patt CU Mobile Banking Credit card change: The new update is stupid. Why would you make it harder to access credit card information? Software engineers just sitting there thinking of new ways to change things just to change them?
- [R62] Wright-Patt CU Mobile Banking Good: App is good. Wish it would stop asking me every time I log in to give a review.
- [R63] Wright-Patt CU Mobile Banking Like the app: Can we stop asking when we log in. I like the app’
- [R64] Wright-Patt CU Mobile Banking Asking for rate too many times: The mobile app is good and works fine. However, every time I log into it, the app prompts me to leave a rate and a review. It becomes overbearing at times
- [R67] Wright-Patt CU Mobile Banking Don’t need to ask for a review every time someone logs in.: .
