Terrible app. The app keeps locking me out. And every time I put in my password it tells me that it
Pack
What I liked about the old version
The old version allowed me to get account balances without logging in. I understand that it’s possible with this version but I wasn’t able to get it working. If there’s a way to do it then it should be documented. Other than that I’ve been pretty happy with the new version.
New App Layout
New app layout is awful and buggy/ laggy
Buggy
while it is improving, this app is incredibly buggy. There needs to be a major UI overhaul and there’s a lot that doesn’t make sense. I needed to be more intuitive.
Understandable
Out of all my-banking apps my Ascend has been by far the easiest to use..
This app is FRUSTRATING
I have tried to make car payments with this app. First I struggled to be able to make a payment after linking my bank account. When I reached out for help my help session was ended early by the person on the line before they could even answer me. The 2nd attempt, they gave me a vague response. I finally found a link to external payments where I had to make ANOTHER account. And then I made a payment there. After making my payment, it shows up in history but the app still says I have my first payment due even though I just made the payment. Overall this app is just very frustrating and confusing to use. Nothing is streamlined.
Needs some iPhone fixes
My husband doesn’t seem to have issues on his android. Some time ago on my app it requires me to at least tap the memo area before giving me the option to finish transferring money between my accounts. I never had to do the previously and it’s annoying, especially if tapping on the screen it doesn’t respond to me hitting the memo area just right. Then I can’t finish the transfer. Making this hard is that the menu on the bottom of the screen/app is in the way. When I am on my accounts page looking things over, if I start scrolling down the page, the menu bar at the bottom moves to the middle of the page. Please fix this so the menu bar isn’t in the way and transferring money between my own accounts isn’t a nuisance.
Awesome
Great bank/cu you can do a lot with this bank but do need to be updated every other week and need some alerts like deposit alerts and transaction details. They deserve the credit that they need because they are friendly plus outstanding people.
Money info
Not giving me my accurate information
Real time data
I wish the transactions were more real time let it was a couple of years ago. It takes a couple of days for things to show up on my account.
Great App
Easy to use. Fast response for support. Helpful friendly staff a few key strokes away
Going good so far
App looks good
The best one!
I adore this credit union! Fast, friendly, courteous, thoughtful and fun!!!
Got to love an app that takes weekends off...
If you're looking to do your banking - or even just keep up with your spending, THIS is the app for you! (As long as you don't spend money on weekends. That won't show up until Monday around lunch time - unless Monday is a holiday. Then you'll have to wait until Tuesday to see that Saturday morning expenditure come out).
Simple to use
Simple to use, is a stable app. It does glitch in the Zelle features but once you learn the bugs it’s okay to use.
ACFU IOS App
The IOS application is working great. A nice to have is for pending deposits to show as pending. It’s a little difficult to determine which ones are being held.
Exceptional!
I am happy to be part of ASCEND FCU! It never lets me down and has the BEST customer service. It feels like family :)
Review

Best decision ever
