ACB SafeKey: Inefficient Banking App

The app experiences significant usability issues, leading to frustration among users. Many find it ineffective and cumbersome, often requiring them to visit physical locations for services that should be accessible online.

26 different people have complained about this since 12 Jun 2019, most recently on 12 Jan 2026.

No new posts for 300 days. This may have been fixed, or people stopped writing about it — the evidence below is from before 12 Jan 2026.

Is this a startup idea?

Not directly. These are complaints about a product or service people already use — the fix belongs first to that provider.

    ACB SafeKey — Bất tiện, lúc xác thực được vân tay lúc không, quá tệ Khi gỡ cài đặt và cài lại, phải nhập lại mã kích hoạt mới, mà phải chạy lên NH để đăng ký lấy lại, ngay từ đầu đăng ký tại NH thì không được tư vấn những trường hợp như vậy

    ACB SafeKey — App vô dụng — Download nguyên cái app chỉ để lấy OTP, trong khi rất nhiều app cung cấp giải pháp OTP khác hay chỉ đơn giản là gửi OTP qua sms. App vô dụng, chậm chạp, nhìn ngứa mắt

Questions about this idea

Is Inefficient Banking App a startup idea?
Not directly. These are complaints about a product or service people already use, and the fix belongs first to that provider. The page shows what is frustrating users and how badly — not an open market to start a company in.
How many people have this problem?
26 different people described it independently, in 26 mentions, the earliest from 12 Jun 2019 and the most recent from 12 Jan 2026. The quotes, with dates and links to the originals, are in the Evidence section.
Is this problem getting worse?
Status: quiet — no new posts in the last 60 days. 0 people raised it in the last 30 days and 0 in the 30 days before; the status compares its share of everything collected from the same source, so collecting more or less cannot create a trend.
