Résumé

Overall sentiment is increasingly negative due to a recent update that seemingly removed key functionality for iOS users, specifically the "TymeCode" cash send feature and access to Business Banking accounts. While some users still appreciate the app's speed and data-free accessibility, there is significant frustration regarding persistent technical lockouts (facial recognition and OTP failures) and the continued lack of Apple Pay support.

Pour :

  • Fast and easy to navigate interface for personal banking users.
  • Data-free access allows users to bank without using their own mobile data.
  • Simple registration and login process compared to other banks.

Cons :

  • iOS Functionality Gaps: Business Banking is completely inaccessible on iPhones, and recent updates removed the card-less cash deposit/TymeCode features.
  • Missing Modern Features: Strong, recurring demand for Apple Pay and "Tap to Pay" functionality which is still missing.
  • Login & Security Issues: Facial recognition is failing frequently, and users are getting locked out due to OTPs not arriving.
  • Support Loop: Users cannot reach the call center because the support line requires an OTP, which is the very thing users are not receiving.
  • UX Frustrations: Inability to delete old beneficiaries or electricity meters, and push notifications disappear immediately upon opening the app.

Divulgation des affiliations Au lieu de bannières publicitaires et de murs payants, Neobanque gagne de l'argent grâce à des liens d'affiliation vers les différents fournisseurs de services de paiement présentés sur notre site Web. Bien que nous nous efforcions de rechercher les meilleures offres sur le marché, nous ne sommes pas en mesure de prendre en compte tous les produits disponibles. Notre large éventail de partenaires affiliés de confiance nous permet de formuler des recommandations détaillées, impartiales et axées sur les solutions pour tous les types de questions et de problèmes des consommateurs. Cela nous permet de mettre en relation nos utilisateurs avec les fournisseurs qui répondent à leurs besoins et, ce faisant, de mettre en relation nos fournisseurs avec de nouveaux clients, créant ainsi une situation gagnant-gagnant pour toutes les parties impliquées. Cependant, bien que certains liens sur Neobanque.ch puissent nous rapporter une commission, ce fait n'a jamais d'incidence sur l'indépendance et l'intégrité de nos opinions, recommandations et évaluations.
