## Varo Bank Reviews in United States

### *---- "Worst app ever!"
They will not push through transaction or let you add money to your cash app or Apple Pay … card just constantly decline I chatted with support they said they fixed it twice mind you I tried after 15 mins still didn’t work.
-- Autumn_W1, 2026-09-09

### *---- "False"
This app is a lie. It’ll still check your credit score it also need a stable  checking account with a credible direct deposit. All false
-- YouTube full of ADS, 2026-09-05

### ****- "Dark mode"
Needs dark mode and 2fa and it’ll be damn near perfect

Trying to make varo my main bank and the DD for zelle kinda annoying… and major inconvenience atm
-- maAdaAaaa, 2026-09-05

### *---- "Unusable app"
Makes you put a mailing address and then says to recheck address because it’s wrong but it’s not it’s a real address that can receive mail. No way around it and no way to use the app
-- teajabur, 2026-09-05

### ***** "Bank Denial"
Cari won’t approve me because my bank “doesn’t qualify” even though I get my weekly direct deposit from work in that bank.
-- Jbenedetto15, 2026-09-03

### *---- "A big joke for a bank"
They have been lending me money every month for over a year an getting paid back on time. This last time rep in customer service who I chatted with because the dates were not working an he said what date I had to put down which it wasn’t late because u have a grace period an they drop me down yiu got me f up get a real banking business cause your not one
-- rockinwobin, 2026-09-01

### ****- "DO NOT USE FOR MOBILE CHECK DEPOSIT"
This is a nice bank but do not I repeat do not use them for mobile check deposit it takes a full week. Better off just going to a store paying a fee and cashing it. Only thing I have to say about them tho.
-- kylarrose2019, 2026-08-31

### *---- "Bad review"
Cash App Better
-- ItzBdg3x, 2026-08-31

### *---- "Just terrible"
Varo is an awful thing to have to deal with. Stay away from this bank. They are totally ineffective when you run into any issue of trying to fix it and will just waste your time and hold onto your funds refusing to release them for legitimate transactions.
-- Pdbna, 2026-08-30

### *---- "not worth it got scammed"
Ive been using this app for almost 1 year for direct deposit got the cash advance to $100 after paying it on time it dropped down to $20 got scammed for them to make extra money do not recommend them
-- drizztx781, 2026-08-30

### **--- "Don’t believe what you read about Zelle"
Unless you deposit directly with this bank, you can’t even use Zelle. They give me an option to spend at least $1000 a month and then maybe I can use them but that doesn’t help my situation nor do they even say that on their app preview.
-- I&#039;m Cara bear, 2026-08-28

### ***** "Awesome Customer Service"
My Card Problems were all solved by professional Customer Agents.
-- Budhhas, 2026-08-28

### *---- "iPhone sucks"
Days I always owe them money so I can’t update so I can’t get into my Varo account cause it needs to be updated I can’t wait to switch back to android!
-- Pokey602, 2026-08-28

### ***** "Easy Banking"
Been a long time member love building my credit and savings and checking All IN ONE !!!!
-- Iconicstyles, 2026-08-27

### *---- "THEY DONT HELP YOU"
I had a scam situation that I literally called them 3 HOURS after I paid it to someone who told me that I wasn’t getting a refund and have the call recording to prove it. Called the dispute line and told them everything and how I had proof, the guys Carlos was gone for 1 literal minute and told me to work it out with the merchant. I told him again that that person LITERALLY said no to refunding me because as a private merchant they can basically. But Varo policies sides with the merchants and not the buyers. GO TO A DIFFERENT BANK. They will tell you the managers will tell you no if you ask for one. I told him to just tell me that my money is gone and Carlos kept sighing HEAVILY in my hear. Don’t waste your time please and go with a company that will make sure you get your money back.
-- Pirating money, 2026-08-27

### *---- "Scam"
Do not use this. I tried to do a cash advance and it actually TOOK the money I requested from my account instead of adding it
-- Ivan Neal, 2026-08-27

### *---- "CAP!! This bank is COOKED!"
Every single change u sir to your account will cause the account to lock. Not only that they even lock your account for NOOOOO REASON. May I add, u have to then reset your password, BUT THEY NEVER SEND A RESET LINK THAT THEY ASK U TO DEAL WITH. By far the least competent bank in world history!
-- dmfnsmith, 2026-08-26

### **--- "Horrific Bank"
Do not sign up with this bank!While banking with Varo I had two transactions go through that I did not make the first was resolved in a timelyish manner the second they took weeks to let me know they weren’t disputing it even though I did not make the transaction. I then called back to reopen the dispute and they took a month to get back to me but not before closing my account without the reason. Two days later they email me saying the disputed the charges due to a failure on their end and when I called to try to get my money to my new bank account they told me the only way they could do it was by check and it would take 21 days. When I asked if they could extradite it (because I have bills to pay) I was rudely told I had to wait for it. They also refused to tell me why my account was closed and to top it off I can’t even open a new bank account with an actual bank because they aren’t finished closing it which is going to take up to three weeks . Don’t use this Bank there are dozens of better ones
-- Jt251344, 2026-08-25

### *---- "Banking issues"
Worst experience ever closed my account over trying to set up a payment plan for a lease program with best buy and to top it off took two months to complete a dispute that they ruled in my favor after my account was closed app sucked when it wanted to login issues even when the app is updated and there customer service is in no rush to help with any issues you have Do Not Trust it with your money
-- Kevkow98, 2026-08-25

### *---- "MONEY STEALER"
Be Careful guys.. They closed my account without notifying me. And I have to wait 14 business days + 4-7 business days to receive paper check… Now all my money stuck there. Thru to call them but they were not helpful. No other options. Just use Other Banks. No other bank gonna do this to you except Varo, very bad experience with Varo. High fees. And poor customer support. Everything just seems like scam! 
I highly don’t recommend using VARO. Their zelle is not working as well. So useless.
