Simmons Bank 4+

App is unstable

This is supposed to be a good app, but after the most recent upgrade, it is constantly failing to load my data. Sometimes it doesn’t even remember that I am already registered, and requires me to relink my phone to my accounts. Other times it lets me in with only my pin, but almost never leads any of my accounts. I have uninstalled and reinstalled, to no avail. I’m documenting this because there doesn’t seem to be another way to give Simmons Bank app feedback without once again re-registering my accounts with the app.

Still an app and bank for the dark ages

For the third time since this “new and improved” app (the required an entirely new app download???) was developed, I’m locked out because “a record needs updating”. I’ve recently moved and updated my address, but every time I call, the address doesn’t seem to update and it’s a matter of time before I get kicked out again. While this is annoying, I’m here because what is the logic in designing an app that locks someone out of their own banking info access over an incorrect address? Why not lock the card as well? Or even better don’t lock people out of online banking at all, especially over an address that company can’t fix. Heaven forbid you find out you’re locked out of your acct after hours and you need banking help not between the hours of 8-5, and expect a large wait time during the day when you call during open hours. The app is slow to load, often giving server error messages. Online check cashing is not instant as it is with other banks that offer this feature. It never reflects a true balance, transactions can take up to three days to post that we’re same day at my old bank. It’s infuriating and I’m SO FRUSTRATED WITH THIS DARK AGES, SMALL TOWN BANK feigning modernity.

Thank you for your feedback. The app only locks when a password entered does not match. Your account should be unlocked now. Please update your user ID to avoid lockouts in the future. We recommend that you use an ID for your online banking that is different from any ID you use for other online portals. Also, you can submit a message through the app to update your mailing address if needed. If you need further assistance, please call us at 866-246-2400.

Frustrated to wits end

The on line banking ledger keeps loosing the notes I add to every transaction and so if I can remember what they are I put the notes in again only for them to be erased again in a few days and then I look at my transactions and it will show back for 30 days and then the next 30 days transactions will not be on the ledger and so I make another trip to the bank and the lady at the bank tries to fix the problem but they tell her to send a screen shot of the problem and she does that but nothing gets done to fix the problem. So my online banking can’t keep up my account so I think the best thing for me to do is take my 3 accounts to another bank even though it will be a nightmare to switch all of my automatic bill pay accounts it think it will be the best thing for me. I loved it when “LANDMARK BANK” had my best interest at heart but since “SIMMONS BANK” has taken over it seems like they could care less about customers!
