The app is easy to use but it takes for ever to open, when doing transaction the app keeps loading and loading, it takes 3 to 5 minutes just to open up and another to use it. It very very very slow

I have been using this bank for almost 4 years now but now it's really annoying because it has a lot of errors . I'm struggling right now to access my pockets, it's so ridiculous. Now I'm currently blocked and have been trying to upload my updated documents. I have been stuck and blocked fm since 31st of December 2024 and today is 5 January 2025 . I spent all these days with my money frozen , why can't you help me? I went to the branch to submit everything , what kind of a bank that can't assis

Very bad app at the moment and it so close that I even close this African Bank account. It has been months that I can't perform anything in this app. I can't transfer money, buy voucher, buy data or airtime. It doesn't function at all. It keeps on saying error occurred. If this app isn't fixed as soon as possible you'll lose customers 🤞🤞. I'm really disappointed in African Bank at this moment.

Completely useless, stopped working during festive season and support are either drunk or stupid or useless. I tell support app stopped working, I give them error message, I also tell them my login details work I tested them on internet banking and cellphone banking and can login there, I also give them device and android version, a support agent Mandla replies, " if I forgot my login details I must reset them". How stupid can that answer be ? Train the support stuff properly .

The app just stops working for no reason. Now ive been trying to log in on it gor the past 5 days and it has been giving me an error that says it cant satisfy my request. Imagine when you need to use the money urgently and it does that for days.

The app is always having problems over a week now. I cannot login and access my funds, no one can rely on it. I regret sending my money to their bank account
