  1. [R4] Mi Banco Mobile 1/5 · US Transfers from other banks: The Bill Pay is PATHETIC compared to other banks. One has to go to a branch to add an account from an external bank. WTF! Are we in the 1800’s? This company keeps Puerto Ricans from advancing in banking technology with their monopoly. Terrible.
  2. [R8] Mi Banco Mobile 5/5 · US Me es muy útil la app: Me es muy útil la app porque puedo pagar los billes, etc
  3. [R9] Mi Banco Mobile 3/5 · US Falta mejorar y agregar funciones: Comparada con otras apps de banco como BBVA, tiene muchas cosas que mejorar y agregar. Experiencia de pago de tarjetas de crédito sin salirte a versión desktop, mejora de autenticacion, descripción en transferencias, apartados virtuales dentro de cada cuenta, etc
  4. [R11] Mi Banco Mobile 5/5 · US Gracias: Gracias a este servicio puedo monitorial mis cuentas….
  5. [R1] Mi Banco Mobile 1/5 · US This seems deliberate. There's no explanation for this.: This is one of the most frustrating banking apps I have ever used. It is simply not user-friendly. Accessing bank statements is far more complicated than it should be. The app often forces you to switch to the desktop version, log in again, and once you finally open your statement, you can’t even go back without being logged out all over ag
  6. [R10] Mi Banco Mobile 2/5 · US Outdated: La aplicación se siente un poco "Outdated". Por ejemplo cuando vas a darle Sign In desde algún link que te lleva directo a BPPR
  7. [R13] Mi Banco Mobile 1/5 · US Excessive verification steps: Excessive verification steps. When you want to restore your password then you have to get another link to the same email, number. Excesive.
  8. [R3] Mi Banco Mobile 3/5 · US Transaction posting: Posting always lags. Cc payments for x deposits
  9. [R16] Mi Banco Mobile 1/5 · US Balances tarjetas de credito: Tremenda porqueria todo el tiempo unavailable, todo e l tiempo please try again later...
  10. [R27] Mi Banco Mobile 1/5 · US Infinite crashing: esta app no sirve ni para chequear el balance, facilmente la aplicacion mas basura de todo Puerto Rico me cago en sus madres
  11. [R7] Mi Banco Mobile 1/5 · US Horrible Service: Like all banks, good to take your money, slow to solve anything and reimburse. Their debt collector and Popular Auto, are the worst. Can’t wait for that department to have lay offs as well like mortgage did.
  12. [R50] Mi Banco Mobile 5/5 · US El mejor: El mas caro pero el mejor!
  13. [R61] CBNA Mobile Banking 2/5 · US Pending Issues: It’s dumb when it says it takes the money out and it’s pending and then the money isn’t taken out. It’s almost made me overdraft a few times. You guys shouldn’t take it out or at least not say it taken out until it is. Multiple times now I’ve had 401 day than the next day it’s up to 600 and then two days later back down to 100. Really confusing, if I didn’t keep track of it myself
  14. [R69] CBNA Mobile Banking 3/5 · US Check deposit: Same check number was rejected by chase bank but then accepted. A second try with the same check number was then accepted. Chase accepted 2 deposits same check number then CBNA accepted the 2 deposits and charged me a fee - that fee should be credited back to my account.
  15. [R18] Mi Banco Mobile 3/5 · US Recuperación: En los pasados días perdí acceso a mi cuenta ya que mi teléfono se extravió en el extranjero y aunque me contacté con apoyo técnico y teniendo mi IPad a la mano y acceso a mi email no me pudieron resolver y tuve que esperar asta ahora para recuperar el acceso por qué no tenían otra forma que no fuera llenado a una sucursal o con el móvil la cual ninguna de las opciones estaba a mi al
  16. [R45] Mi Banco Mobile 1/5 · US Mal servicio: Es increíble que estoy intentando comunicarme desde las 10:00am y y 5hrs y media después me contestan. Por eso pierden clientes y yo soy una! 😡
  17. [R53] Mi Banco Mobile 1/5 · US Servicio al cliente: Viernes no hubo sistema parece q ustedes como banca no saben lo que es pasar necesidad mientras ustedes tienen su rutina horarios y dias laborables la economia y el dollar caen de su valor por no buscar como mejor el sistema.
  18. [R70] CBNA Mobile Banking 1/5 · US Más de media hora en espera y solo cuelgan la llamada, No te permite hacer trasferencias fácil mente: Mala muy mala Deben permitir hacer trasferencias rápido y fácil y sobre todo atender las llamadas pro to mas de 30 minutos en espera para que solo no te contesten y cuelguen
  19. [R33] Mi Banco Mobile 1/5 · US En dudas: Esto solo me permite ver mi estado de cuenta no me da la opción de hacer depósitos de cheques por el móvil tengo que ir a la sucursal y eso era algo que me quería evitar por eso cerró estrellas
  20. [R92] CBNA Mobile Banking 5/5 · US Deposit: Super fast and easy and allows me to deposit my check while getting the kids ready for school.
  21. [R111] CBNA Mobile Banking 5/5 · US Check deposit: Mobile banking certainly makes occasional deposits easy.
  22. [R115] CBNA Mobile Banking 5/5 · US Mobile banking: I love this way of banking. It’s a convenient way and simple to use and save time using this method of depositing checks
  23. [R35] Mi Banco Mobile 1/5 · US Horrible: Peor banco que existe, la aplicación es tan mala que te sigue bloqueando. Te siguen pidiendo contraseña nueva porque según la app esa no es la contraseña, luego la pones como contraseña nueva y te indican que no puedes restablecer tu contraseña con tu antigua contraseña. Demasiado de muchos glitch. Por tal razón sigo con mi cuenta de USA. Triste
  24. [R47] Mi Banco Mobile 2/5 · US Keeps Locking Me Out: This is mostly an issue as I have the bank linked to another app in order to track my expenses. However, out of all my financial accounts, this bank is the only one that consistently has issues with being linked to this app and keeps locking me out and making me change my password. I understand the security concerns but I used to have it linked to a similar app years ago and
  25. [R51] Mi Banco Mobile 1/5 · US On line banking: Well this bank is horrible. Every time I try to log into MY account the bank locks the account and I have to change my password every time to the point that I forget which password I use. HORRY BANK. I have an account with Chase Bank and I don’t have any trouble getting into MY ACCOUNT.
  26. [R29] Mi Banco Mobile 1/5 · US Burdensome Process for Transfers to accounts in other Banks: Hidden process to perform transfers to accounts in other banks
  27. [R48] Mi Banco Mobile 5/5 · US Mi banco: Es una aplicación muy completa! Debe mejorar en poder abrir el área de préstamo, que solo muestra la cantidad inicial. Otras aplicaciones de otros banco lo permiten. Además hacer transferencias entre bancos
  28. [R108] CBNA Mobile Banking 1/5 · US What is the point of the zelle feature?: It almost never works, is insanely restrictive and near worthless. Every time i think i understand the limits it throws another one out. Trying to use this for important payments and it’s been nothing but frustrating every single time
