It works for me so far but please stop updating the app. We rely on these apps to do things like access food, water, shelter etc. We can never be sure if the next update will bug out and block us off from using our bank when we need it. Also if we must do something urgently and we find that we have to Install an update it can be very stressful. I will give the benefit of the doubt that you must update for security but please make it minimal. I see other users who can't access their account!

No longer works after latest update. I can login but the app stalls at "Loading..." which is not at all reassuring. It never finishes "Loading..." but then after a while says "You were logged out due to inactivity"!! At least it still lets me approve payments and website logins but all other functionality is lost because it never finishes the "Loading..." stage.

As a new customer. having to use the card reader for sending money is a nightmare. it defeats the purpose of being a mobile app. I need to carry my card and reader when heading out incase I need to send money. its a real pain and I wish I knew this before opening an account. I also use other banking apps and none of those require a card reader. I also cannot add my virgin isa to show in my accounts. The app is badly outated and miles behind others.
