Horrific experience. I recently got a new android phone and cannot log in on the app to view my SIPP (the only way possible) due to an error saying 'something went wrong' and to 'check my connection'. I don't have any other issues with any other banking app. Decided to call SW to be told to register again. App then told me I can't because I am already registered. Called back up spoke to the same guy and still got no where. It's absolutely ridiculous service

When granted camera access to verify ID documents, the app uses the wide-angle lens rather than the standard lens for photographing documents. This cannot be changed and causes close-up photos of ID documents to be blurry which the app then rejects for being blurred. This wouldn't be a problem if the app used the appropriate camera lens in the first place. Useless. Making the same changes through the website doesn't even require an ID check

I'm sure it's wonderful but.. Why send me letters encouraging me to use the app when the app tells me it doesn't support my product? The app tells me to use the website. Yet more of my rapidly shortening life is spent again filling in my details only to be told that the website doesn't support my product and tells me to phone. But , guess what? They've either cut the number of operators and/or the remaining operators are inundated with calls by people like me. Think I'll try a telegram.
