Mostly fine

Tried First Abu Dhabi Bank as a second account. Cash deposits are awkward compared to a branch. Does the job, with caveats. Friend recommended it to me.

Good but support is slow

My experience with First Abu Dhabi Bank is mixed. App is occasionally slow to load balances. Worth a look if it fits your needs.

Best banking app I’ve used

A friend recommended First Abu Dhabi Bank to me. Free ATM withdrawals abroad saved me a fortune. Card arrived quickly and Apple Pay set up instantly. Highly recommend. Switched from a traditional provider.

Lost access for days

I was a happy First Abu Dhabi Bank customer until recently. My card was blocked abroad with no warning. Hope they fix this soon. Been a customer for a couple of years.

Genuinely modern banking

I can speak from real experience with First Abu Dhabi Bank. Support actually answered me within minutes in chat. Sub-accounts make budgeting effortless. Highly recommend.

Decent, a few gaps

Have a First Abu Dhabi Bank account alongside my main bank. Most features are great, a few are region-locked. Good, but room to improve.

Account frozen without warning

I really wanted to like First Abu Dhabi Bank. They asked for the same documents three times. Disappointed overall. Used across two countries so far.

Support is impossible to reach

Used First Abu Dhabi Bank as my only account, big mistake. They asked for the same documents three times. Disappointed overall.

Lost access for days

I expected more from First Abu Dhabi Bank. They asked for the same documents three times. My card was blocked abroad with no warning. Will think twice before relying on it. Friend recommended it to me.

Went downhill

I’ve had ongoing issues with First Abu Dhabi Bank. A payment failed and the in-app help was useless. Disappointed overall. Been a customer for a couple of years.
