- [R5] Northern/Countryside CU Mobile Bill pay: Great to do bill pay on my phone but can’t do it on my iPad which is more convenient for me. Need to fix that for your customers
- [R6] Northern/Countryside CU Mobile Please Bring Back Credit Card Section: The latest update removed the option to check your credit card balance, pay the balance, etc, using the app. Now I have to login to the website, instead of being able to simply and easily interact with it via the app. Using the website isn’t a pleasant experience has you have to enter your password and two factor code every single time, and then are automatic
- [R9] Northern/Countryside CU Mobile Previous payments: I do not like that I can not see previous payments under my payees
- [R12] Northern/Countryside CU Mobile It's okay: It's a great app I just wish it would show the tracking and routing number.
- [R1] Northern/Countryside CU Mobile No landscape mode: Landscape mode will not work with this update. The account money numbers are very small and there is no way to make anything bigger. The balances are so tiny they are difficult to read.
- [R2] Northern/Countryside CU Mobile Northern Rocks: This is the easiest banking there is. Wonderful people, top of the line tech - what more can you ask for?
- [R4] Northern/Countryside CU Mobile Glitchy: App is consistently glitchy and clunky to use, especially since being revamped. It’s constantly blanking out. I use two other banks for my commercial accounts and have far less issues with the other two combined.
- [R11] Northern/Countryside CU Mobile Love the new app: Very user friendly and so many options! Always coming out with new and helpful updates.
- [R8] Northern/Countryside CU Mobile Very good app: Lately I’ve had trouble with transfers not showing up for awhile, or the app “balance available” not current. A couple of Friday paydays ago, my balance didn’t show my paycheck amount until Monday - for the first time.
- [R10] Northern/Countryside CU Mobile Northern credit union: Lousy all of a sudden I am unable to access my account no tv Hong I do fixes it. I have used it on my Apple phone for several years I am going to get another brand of phone
- [R13] Northern/Countryside CU Mobile Eh: It keeps locking me out
- [R20] Northern/Countryside CU Mobile Great job: An amazing bank, very personal, and extremely accommodating
- [R25] Northern/Countryside CU Mobile Very responsive even in difficult Wuhan flu times: 1) App generally works great. If it loads slowly, restarting one’s phone usually resolves the issue. 2) The organization offers great benefits which it carefully reviews to make sure that it can remain viable. 3) Important information is conveyed to members and employees know how to ans questions wo long delays in getting someone to pick up. My
- [R26] Northern/Countryside CU Mobile Reviewlove the conveniences: It’s convenient & up to date with technology, staff is always glad to help
- [R22] Northern/Countryside CU Mobile Thank you!!!: Miss S Jones was such a wonderful young lady to work with and she made the transition so easy!!! Thank you!!!
- [R45] Northern/Countryside CU Mobile Mobile Deposits: Great app for monitoring my finances, and being able to deposit or transfer money on the fly. Love being able to check balances at a glance without having to log in. The only problem I have with the app is the part of the mobile deposit feature that takes a picture of the check. It is a little glitchy at times, and if you want to manually take the picture you have to wait for the
- [R56] Northern/Countryside CU Mobile Convenient app w/great services: Very happy with this app. Have never had technical problems, everything works seamlessly, be it depositing checks, checking balances, transferring money between accounts, or checking the status of my Bill Pay transactions. Great for making changes to payments &/or balances “on-the-go!” The Bill Pay functions a little differently than the main site features, as do
- [R61] Town & Country FCU Mobile Mobile Check does not work: The app will not open a camera or a viewfinder at all and just creates a blank screen. This is true for my partner as well.
- [R66] Town & Country FCU Mobile TCFCU is great, app sometimes works: The CU is great but the apple app works inconsistently. Sometimes the check deposit pics are never accepted by the app. Luckily I have a droid phone also and never have problems with check deposits
- [R23] Northern/Countryside CU Mobile Great App but one small bug: So I’ve been with Northern for over half a year now and one thing that has been consistent is whenever I try to use my finger print to sign on, even if I set it up in the settings it never works and tells me to do it again. This has been a problem for over a month now. This makes it difficult to check my account when I am not home because I don’t want someone to see my
- [R39] Northern/Countryside CU Mobile Frustrating: Do not get me wrong - I enjoy working with NFCU and have nothing bad to say about their business, employees or their level of customer service. My issues solely revolve around their mobile and online banking services. It seems every time I try to use either one I end up getting locked out of an account and getting back into it always requires giving them a call. Using the Touch ID is
- [R41] Northern/Countryside CU Mobile NFCU App: Using the app is great. My main complaint, however, is that I have problems remembering my password and with only 2 chances to be incorrect, I have to be very careful not to get locked out.
- [R88] Town & Country FCU Mobile Overdraw bait: If you want to know how much money you have in your account, this is not for you. It often takes days up to a week for purchases or bills paid to show up even in the pending menu.
