- [R9] Mi Banco Mobile 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
- [R15] Mi Banco Mobile Lack of access: No permite pagos a principal ni aplicaciones a prestamos etc. para mas claridad compare la app a la de USAA o Pentagono
- [R33] Mi Banco Mobile 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
- [R43] Mi Banco Mobile Can link with Robinhood.: Garbage bank. Doesn’t let me link for deposit with Robinhood.
- [R1] Mi Banco Mobile 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
- [R17] Mi Banco Mobile Simple: Easy to use, all information I need is easily accessed.

- [R24] Mi Banco Mobile Gracias: Muy fácil de usar y es una gran herramienta
- [R3] Mi Banco Mobile Transaction posting: Posting always lags. Cc payments for x deposits
- [R35] Mi Banco Mobile 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
- [R47] Mi Banco Mobile 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
- [R13] Mi Banco Mobile 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.
- [R49] Mi Banco Mobile Terrible banking: I hadn’t login for some time and I would ask me to change my password and then after I change it, it asked me to validate two more times. It’s so much a frustration to deal with this bank.
- [R10] Mi Banco Mobile 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
- [R21] Mi Banco Mobile Hace falta la actualización del nuevo iOS 26: Hace falta Liquid Glass en la app no está también actualizada hace falta un mejor diseño en la app como de transacciones y balances
- [R31] Mi Banco Mobile Terrible bank: Terrible bank they are 20 years behind
- [R37] Mi Banco Mobile Mejorar: Deben añadirle mensajes a las transferencias, mejorar en si porque estan atras
- [R18] Mi Banco Mobile 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
- [R45] Mi Banco Mobile 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! 😡
- [R62] FB Mobile Banking Best banking: Love this bank been a customer for 8 years they care for you.
- [R65] FB Mobile Banking Great Bank: Since we moved several years ago, FB has always been great! We love the great security service to access our accounts
- [R4] Mi Banco Mobile 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.
- [R29] Mi Banco Mobile Burdensome Process for Transfers to accounts in other Banks: Hidden process to perform transfers to accounts in other banks
- [R66] FB Mobile Banking Pros and cons: I have noticed that I've gotten generally good and friendly service while either going in or on the app. Although, when needing to transfer funds, it's only been able to be done within FB. If I wanted to transfer any from my investment bank, that could not be digital but rather a time consuming process.
- [R82] FB Mobile Banking User Interface: I dont like how setting up linked accounts is, and also you can only transfer 2k a day, and its 24hours not calendar days. Also they dont give a confirmation number for the transaction. Just little things that all together make my review 2star.
- [R72] FB Mobile Banking Maybe adjust advertising: Mobile check deposit takes longer than stated on website.
- [R77] FB Mobile Banking awesome: never had any issues, everything is straight forward!! i loveeee mobile check deposit, such a lifesaver
- [R25] Mi Banco Mobile The worst: I am forced to bank with this bank unfortunately. I deposit money weekly to transfer to my main US bank account and the layout of this app is horrible. Why not list out the transactions and the end balance after the transactions instead of breaking it up into debit and credit transactions? It’s hard to keep track and to see if everything is as it should be. This reads very SCAMMY.
- [R41] Mi Banco Mobile Not reliable app: Unable to see transaction history
- [R61] FB Mobile Banking It’s ok, but it doesn’t work majority of the time.: I’m getting fed up with this bank and I’m probably going to another one soon, the app almost never loads anymore, I only get error messages that say “Error updating details, there was an issue retrieving the latest account details. Please try again”. It won’t even show me how much I have in my account, so I can’t even see if I’m overdrafted. I’v
