The Ally app has 100% full online banking features on Mobile!

Most mobile banking apps have limited services available that are limited to traditional “online banking” access that require logging in from a PC/Laptop but not this app’s Mobile App! This app has all features you would need for your banking needs such as order checks, card controls, bill pay, Zelle, Mobile check deposit, transfer money internally & externally to your linked accounts, add memos to transactions, chat real time with a banking associate and even open new accounts! I love this app for their customer service, user friendly services and their great products! Also I can not forget to add that their app is reliable, dependable and consistent- it never goes down or has glitches like other banking apps I’ve used in the past.

Works Well — Functional and Easy

I don’t see why people make complaints — I’ve used the bank for years (and frankly, this isn’t the place to be reviewing the bank itself; these reviews are supposed to be for the app) and it’s been nothing but good experiences all around. For those who are complaining that it’s not a good trading app, that’s your problem... it’s a banking app and isn’t touted solely as a trading app. As far as a bank app goes, it’s functional, easy to access statements and information regarding your account, and the features a normal banking customer would utilize are perfectly fine. I’ve never had an issue and I’ve been using the app for basically as long as it’s been around. I also use other banking apps that are much less functional and useful and frankly frustrating — such as Fidelity, which IS meant to allow trading, and falls short of what it is apparently intended to do — and various others whose features are faulty at times, request you to phone the institution for certain functions, etc. Thus far, this app’s functionality and accessibility far outrank any other financial institution’s app that I have used to date.

GREAT BANK

I understand this is a review area for the App...which I think is almost flawless. My only comment on the app is that I wish I could download my checking account activity for the last year in csv format. I love the check deposit interface, I love how sharp the images come out, especially when you want to look them up months later...they’re perfect! MY review is mainly for the bank itself because the App (& website) basically ARE the bank! I use the check and savings accounts and they are better than any ‘physical’ bank that I have used thus far!!! They promptly notify you when it comes to any ‘Suspicious Activity'. They once caught a scam directed at my accounts that was just under $2!! I wouldn’t have caught it without them. this app told me they had seen that ‘scammer’ before, they would see if a small amount would go through and if that was successful they would take much, much more!! THANKS to this app!! I love the added bonus of using ANY ATM I choose confident in the fact the reimbursement fee will show back up into my account within a day or two...ALWAYS! Team this app! Keep up the good work!!!👍🏼
