Two huge complaints about this new app: 1) I can no longer pay my auto loan with a check through the app, the only options are to pay the loan through my checking or savings accounts. I can't deposit the check to those accounts, as it's made out to RCU, not me. Now I have to go into the bank to pay my auto loan. 2) The home screen no longer shows when my rewards points are expiring, I have to go several screens into the rewards menu to see that. Shady. Like you're hoping people don't notice.

Hi Kristel, The pay-by-check feature will be available soon, apologies for the delay. We are also working on having the Reward Point expiration date display on the Dashboard versus needing to go into the Reward Section. Thank you again for your patience. - Redwood Credit Union

I've tried to use this app on my phone so many times since it went digital and had no luck at all! I've installed and Uninstaller more times than I can count and I still can't use it. It's fine on my Chromebook, but if I'm out of the house and need banking info it means I have to call the bank. Very frustrating!! ☹️

The old app was a bit clunky, but still pretty easy to navigate and had more options for payments. Definitely preferred vs the new app which DOES NOT ALLOW LOAN PAYMENTS TO BE MADE VIA DEBIT/CREDIT CARDS??! That is the primary payment method I use, as it processes immediately instead of DAYS later like the external accounts payments do. PLEASE INTEGRATE THE DEBIT/CREDIT CARD PAYMENT OPTION INTO THE NEW APP! This will be very frustrating moving forward if not amended. :/
