  1. [R1] City Credit Union Mobile 1/5 · US No longer able to deposit on mobile: With limited in person bank options, you would think that mobile deposit would be a feature that they offer, but unfortunately it no longer is
  2. [R3] City Credit Union Mobile 3/5 · US Zelle: Zelle always has a glitch and charges for immediate transactions. It’s annoying. I really wish they would fix that
  3. [R6] City Credit Union Mobile 3/5 · US Good but...: This is user friendly but missing some of the basics that other banks and credit unions offer and that’s the daily running balance. This is the main reason why I don’t give this higher stars. I have seen previous reviews by others asking for the same thing.....
  4. [R9] City Credit Union Mobile 3/5 · US Could provide more functionality: The app works with no glitches, which is great, but it would be nice to have more functionality such as alerts and notifications. There are no options to set notifications for low balance or deposits. I cannot see my running balance, which is the most basic of banking apps. I have to log in online to see this information. Also, I don’t understand the purpose of ma
  5. [R15] City Credit Union Mobile 3/5 · US Upgrade: Make the app more appealing and have more features.
  6. [R17] City Credit Union Mobile 5/5 · US Very easy to use.: Good program. Thanks
  7. [R4] City Credit Union Mobile 1/5 · US Disappointed: This app is terrible. I have tried updating it, uninstalling and reinstalling, nothing works. I try to look at my transactions and it gives me an error message and says to call. It’s been like that for the last week. Customer service gave no solutions besides updating. Never had an issue with any other banking app.
  8. [R7] City Credit Union Mobile 1/5 · US The app never works: The app never works!
  9. [R10] City Credit Union Mobile 1/5 · US Can’t Login: I have not been able to login to this app since it’s been created. The many updates they’ve done have not fixed it. Using iPhone 13 Pro. Enter username and p-word, provide a day use phone #, receive “successful” save notification, hit continue button, takes me back to the login page, process starts all over. A continuous loop. What’s happening? I can go online to the website login,
  10. [R12] City Credit Union Mobile 3/5 · US app keeps crashing: my app from time to time wont open and it keeps saying its having connection issues but i have connection and my other apps work so i dont know whats the problem
  11. [R11] City Credit Union Mobile 5/5 · US Gainesville Special Agents: I am requesting a monetary raise in salary for Jennifer and Connie! They know everyone that steps up to window! They are very enthusiastic and very willing to help out!!
  12. [R26] City Credit Union Mobile 5/5 · US City Credit Union: Crystal Williams and her Colorado team are awesome.
  13. [R35] City Credit Union Mobile 1/5 · US This gives bad info: The balance provided is yours current not your available and caused me $300 in overdraft fees which the CU refused to refund. Cust serv cannot answer any questions abt the app because it's from a 3rd party. Very disappointed.
  14. [R29] City Credit Union Mobile 2/5 · US Needs improvement: The mobile deposit function never works. Every time I try to deposit a check I get a notification that the deposit failed.
  15. [R41] City Credit Union Mobile 2/5 · US Not that good: Why would you show the current balance and not the AVAILABLE balance?! Having to go in manually and check each account for the available balance is annoying.
  16. [R60] MCECU Mobile 1/5 · US Update ruined login: I can't login since the update.
  17. [R64] MCECU Mobile 2/5 · US Worked great...at first: I cannot login now for some reason. It tells me to register an email address with the site online, then try the mobile app again. We already have an email address registered...not sure what's going on with this. I LOVED the app at first. Please fix this!!
  18. [R97] MCECU Mobile 5/5 · US Mostly love it.: I still like it just fine outside of the last large update, it now logs me out regularly and won’t Face ID until I log in again. I know. 1st world issues; but, it would NEVER do that before the update. Please fix that. Otherwise, love it. Easy to use.
  19. [R62] MCECU Mobile 1/5 · US Outdated: This app is in serious need of an update. It has no bill pay nor mobile check deposit. Due to the branches closing at 4pm majority of the week, you (credit union) should make mobile banking a top priority. I'd like to see banking transfers from member to member as well. The whole app needs to have a facelift in general as well.
  20. [R75] MCECU Mobile 5/5 · US Credit Union App: This app is amazing. I love how convenient it is for me and my wife to transfer funds to one another. I love how quick and easy it is to check my account balance and follow my transaction history.
