1. 3/5Login never remembers who I am

   Once I finally make it into the app, it’s great! And I would love to be able to view my balance more often, however the app never “remembers” me even though I am constantly turning on the biometrics login and saving my password. The amount of times I have had to go in and change a perfectly good password because it doesn’t remember is crazy! I don’t know if it’s a bug or just me, but I feel like I always have problems logging in.

2. 1/5Disappointing web presence

   I had been with ICMA for a few years through a former employer. That employer switched away from ICMA due to some difficulty with the service, which was fine with me, as I had experienced some of those difficulties. I subsequently changed employees, and was disappointed to see that ICMA was the company handling the 457 plan. But it had been a few years, so I was hopeful that ICMA had been able to up their game. No such luck. Here are the major issues I am seeing with the app: 1. When you turn on the app, you are not immediately logged in. Logging in is a three step process, each process taking several seconds (think 15-20 seconds per step). 2. The login process actually times out from time to time, and that is when it’s connected to my WiFi. Cellular is not an option for this app in my area (the capital city of Olympia). 3. The account aggregation tool often has difficulty updating linked account balances. I often get an error message telling me that ICMA is having a particular problem with my main retirement, and cannot update; they can “typically update within 24 hours”. On the bright side, the customer service people are super friendly. I believe these types of things are a result of systemic management issues within the company, and not the fault of individual employees. This company has always had difficulty communicating financial information, and they always will. I imagine my new employer will take a similar path as my former employer did for that reason.

3. 1/5Worthless

   This app and its website are the worst investment applications. Ever since they made changes to the entire site it has been one rabbit hole after another. Nothing on this site is user friendly nor do they allow you to make changes without having to call them. Nothing on their platform works. No rate of return no changes or deletion of contributions no emails confirmations and everything is all over the place. They are quick to take your money and charge you for their service but make the app and website or archaic and confusing. You would think someone with some customer service background would be able to develop something that actually benefits and supports customers. Not to mention they apply your contributions to the wrong tax year even after you selected the one you wanted. I’m seriously going to think about changing companies bc they lack in many areas and I’m not paying them for subpar service.

4. 1/5Pathetic

   The prior app was functional, and this latest version under the Mission Square brand is absolutely useless and ten steps backwards. You can no longer see if your accounts have gained or lost value on a daily basis without manually digging through each and every account valuation. The savings and retirement calculator is also useless and doesn’t allow you to actually estimate a pension and funds in retirement because some of the drop downs don’t work, among other glitches. Similarly, every time I log on I get messages that purport to confirm changes to my accounts that I have not made. Finally, I get message alerts and once read, I cannot delete the messages shown in the app. If Mission Square wants to provide value o its customers please fix the app!

5. 4/5Much Improved

   I looked at this app a few years ago and instantly deleted it because it was worthless. I just downloaded it again after seeing updates and it is completely different. Glad to see what the developers have done. It seems like it could be easier to navigate for people that are not as tech savvy, but I can at least see all my different info now which is a plus.
