Ratings and Reviews
So easy
Using face recognition, this app is so easy to use.
I really like the fact that I don’t have to get a one time passcode just to change the reference number on an existing payee.
The only thing I can’t seem to do is print my credit card statements, but I can do this using the browser on my laptop.

Recent problems.
I’ve been using Smile bank almost since it started and have been satisfied. I have recently updated my IPad to Gen 10 and since then the problems have started. Very often when opening the App I get a message that security details cannot be verified and the only way I have found to re-activate it, is off load and re- install, this works for a while and then the problem starts again. I have removed the App and started again, all my Apple updates are in order and still it happens. I have contacted the bank by phone and got nowhere. I am now considering this is too much and looking at my options.

Hi, I'm really sorry to hear that you're having continues issues using our mobile banking app. Please send a secure message through online banking and we can get the issues you're having raised with our IT team. Thanks - Michelle
When it works it’s fine
Unfortunately it’s either a iOS update or the smile app update either iPad or iPhone 8 will come up with the message it can’t find a secure connection so have to delete and reinstall.
Other thing that’s really annoying you can’t pay cheques in using it like several other banks
Living in rural Cornwall there’s no longer a branch in the county once Truro’s the coop bank closed.
As for using post offices you assume we all have access to one. If I didn’t drive there isn’t a local PO.
Nearest the next village 2.5 mikes away has a mobile post office van 1.5 hrs once a week
