Having received a message from a recipient to say that the payment I had sent had not been received, I looked on my app to see the payment hadn’t been recorded as sent. If I had looked closer at that point, I would have noticed my balance had changed although payee not recorded. I paid her again - still no record on the app. I checked balance to see both payments had been debited. I contacted the bank to be told that the app wouldn’t be updated until 1st July because it was the end of the month and the weekend 😱. The transaction has not shown up in the payee’s account and her balance hasn’t changed. I was advised to check my desktop. I don’t have my account on the desktop and it is a busy Sunday morning. This app is not an improvement on the previous one and I am left to ponder where in the ether my double payment is - left my account, not in the payee’s account, although both times I was informed payment was successful and would appear in the recipient’s account immediately.

Today is the first day I will phone the bank of Scotland after four weeks. I am in Irvine whereas I was born. Incarcerated because of my mental health. I have bipolar one. And a brain injury which only occurred because I stupidly threw myself in front of a train six years ago March 24. And ruined nothing I believe in God I believe in Yawa. I believe that Boris Johnson always the source to Scottish people and apology. And Westminster is full of pretenders. I voted social housing for those in Scotland. The EU we should be in it. The government is to blame that is all I will said. Doctors and nurses are important. Politics and politicians are very up and down. Boris, I leave you a verse John 20:1, 2, 3 & 4. Thanking your sins. And think about a government that unites Ireland, Wales, Scotland and England. You cannot hide, especially in a second house. Clear your desk and get a job that serves mankind not your own deserves. You are not guilty of a crime. But one day you will answer to Christ Yabba God and the Holy Spirit. Before you leave the house. Amen
Open banking module seems insecure
Mickeylick
Ok, hopefully now I have your attention developers? I added 2 other credit card accounts to this app 3 months ago (so that I can view those balances without moving out of 1 app to open another..a really good idea and USP by the way) all worked well until the 3 month re- authorisation rolled around a few weeks ago. I reauthorised my MBNA credit card account with no problems, ie: click the link in BOS app to open MBNA app to confirm authorisation then get taken back to BOS app... seamless, quick and secure. When I tried the same with my Barclaycard though.... oops! Instead of being redirected back to my BOS app my Halifax banking app gets opened automatically instead (and obviously the request to add Barclaycard to my open banking is never actioned)! I realise this may be a Barclaycard app issue but as the initial request originated from the BOS app then I guess it’s down to you to solve.

Payments to MasterCard
crahjnit
I always transfer the full amount of a purchase from my classic account to my MasterCard before I get a statement. It always takes the money out of my classic account instantly, however is always at least a day before it goes into my MasterCard, even though it always says it will be in my MasterCard account within 2 hours.This caused me a problem at the start of the month when I wanted to buy airline tickets, they were going to cost more than my credit allowance. Because of this, I transferred more than the full amount to my credit card BEFORE buying the tickets. Again, it said the money would be in my credit card account within 2hours ! Again it wasn’t, and the money was taken from my credit card account for the airline purchase BEFORE my money transfer was registered in my credit card account. I then got worrying nasty messages on my bank app, AND 10 days later got a nasty letter. I phoned the MasterCard number, and she wasn’t very polite or helpful. So, I now don’t know if I have any credit issues, when I did nothing wrong.Needless to say I am looking into changing ALL my B.O.S accounts to another bank.Cath McCallum
