    I just got a text from BOI telling me the old app is no longer available and to install the new one.  I see it's already updated to the new version on my phone, but when trying to register the device, it fails and tells me my device is not registered.  This is just an utter failure, and should be removed from the app store.  Look at the reviews there, it's not working for pretty much anyone.  That was 1.4 billion euro well spent. 
    Same here. I wonder is it not supported on old android phones.

    So I called BoI technical support late last week after installing the new app and it wouldn't even open for me.

    They didn't inspire me with any confidence.

    1st guy I spoke to cut me off just after I asked a question as to what the issue might be.
    2nd guy said he was "app technical support" when I asked to be put through to them, then proceeded to take my number and said he'd get "technical support" to call me if they can work out what is causing my app not to work.

    I still haven't heard from them. Don't expect to either. What a mess.

    Don't worry. There will be someone along here tomorrow to reassure you with a meaningless stock reply.

    Hi stronglikebull,

    Thanks for getting in touch with us here on Boards.ie.

    I am really sorry to hear that you're having this difficulty registering with the new app. I am aware that yesterday evening there were some technical difficulties however, these were since resolved since 8:30pm. 

    If you are still having these difficulties this morning, please contact our dedicated Mobile Migration Team on 0818200362. One of my colleagues will be happy to look into this further for you.

    I would like to apologize for any inconvenience caused. If there is anything else we can help with, we are available on Twitter @talktoBOI and Facebook. 

    Have a great day and take care. 

    Many thanks,
    Megan

    Hi Niman,

    Thanks for getting in touch with us.

    I am really sorry that you haven't received a call back in relation to this.

    There had been some technical difficulties with the app yesterday evening, but this was resolved by approx 8:30pm. It seems customers were having similar difficulties to you, not having the facility to open the app.

    If you are still having this difficulty this morning, please contact our dedicated Mobile Migration Team on 0818200362. One of my colleagues on this team can certainly help and look into this further for you.

    I apologize for the inconvenience and I hope this is sorted for you ASAP

    Have a lovely day.

    Many thanks, 
    Megan

    Same here, telling me I have no internet. 200Mbps is no internet to BOI, tells you all you need to know. 


  • Registered Users Posts: 955 ✭✭✭Poncke


    Took you 5 years to create a new GUI...well done, still no contactless payments, not holding my breath for that one. Shambles.

    Hi Poncke,

    The issue was resolved yesterday evening so you shouldn't be experiencing any further difficulties. Have been trying to register your device today? 

    Thanks

    Sorry but I will not be calling again. You took my details and said I would be called back. Its a measure of how a business treats their customers that they have the decency to do what they said they'd do.

    As for the app not working yesterday for a period of time, that has nothing to do with my issues. My new app has NEVER worked since I installed it. The old one worked perfectly for years. The new app is the issue as can be clearly seen on this forum and in the comment section on the PlayStore.

    I will just put up without an app for now. Until your developers get their act together.

    Be prepared to have no app for 5years it took them this long to put out this crap app, and still no apple/Google pay.

    I don't mean to be rude here, but the replies from the reps are simply generic ones, they could almost be posted by bots.

    No offence meant, I'm sure you are only saying that you're told to.

    Hi There, 

    [font=Helvetica, sans-serif] [/font]
    Thanks for reaching out to us here on Boards.ie today. 


    We are currently experiencing technical difficulties with our New Mobile App. This is being investigated by our Support Team as a high priority to ensure this is resolved ASAP. 


    Just to mention, you can still access your online banking account on the desktop/web version of Banking 365. 


    We're very sorry for any inconvenience caused.


    Thanks, Aisling


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,347 ✭✭✭✭blade1


    What's going on with the app now.
    Put in my 3 digits and this pops up.
    Can't go any further.

    I know the usual response well by now....  sorry, will pass on feedback, use 365 online for the meantime bla bla bla.

    What's the point in having an app if we have to keep using the website??
    It's a like a comedy of errors at this stage!

    I went to use our yesterday and got some sort of error. 
    I don't trust it, if it's that flakey there could well be security issues with it. 


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,983 ✭✭✭Ohmeha


    Yeah same for error for me each time, this 'new modern app' turning out to be some success for BOI

    The app was down for maintenance yesterday, possibly related to that?

    I've been finding it a great improvement (although still very sparse in terms of features).

    The old app was freezing when entering my pin, very annoying.

    Wish I had it back working again.


  • Registered Users Posts: 108 ✭✭DD1518


    I downloaded it yesterday and find it terrible compared to the old app it's always telling me I have a problem with Internet connection and all sorts it needs to improve massively.


  • Registered Users Posts: 706 ✭✭✭tiredblondie


    I'm having this same issue but now i have received a text from BOI telling me that if i enter my pin incorrect once more then my account will be blocked!!
    My pin number is correct, it's the app that is the problem!

    I got the same message. Now I'm locked out, and have to ring B365. The app was down, but when it came back up, I was putting in the correct pin, and it was hanging. I then got the same text per above. Then I got locked out after one more "failed' attempt. The app was the problem, not my details
