New updates are being added to the bottom of the story…

Original story (from May 31, 2019) follows:

Are you a BMO customer? Are you facing issues accessing banking services through BMO’s app and website? Well, if yes, find solace in the fact that you’re not alone.

A lot of users are reporting problems with accessing BMO app and online banking (through website). Following are some complaints posted on Twitter:

For it’s part, the financial institution has acknowledged the glitch. Their official Twitter account responded to a complainant with this statement a few minutes ago:

I’m sorry you have difficulties accessing your account and I apologize for the inconvenience caused by this situation. It seems that we have a temporary issue with the Mobile app and the site as the system is currently being updated

And as far as ETA for a fix is concerned, it should take around a couple of hours:

would recommend that you try again in a couple of hours

So there you go. The bank is confirmed the problem, and it should get fixed in a couple of hours. If you are affected, keep checking this space as we’ll update the story as and when BMO announces everything is back to normal.

Update 1 (July 30, 2021)

IST 10:40 am: New reports coming in indicate that BMO is down yet again. The past hour has seen a drastic spike in reports from users.

Thanks @BMO for having an unreliable mobile banking app. It just sits forever at the loading screen and does not let me login. I need to check my finances and your stupid piece of garbage app is down…. AGAIN!

so #disappointing , after being on hold for 44 min, there is no answer as to why site and app are down the person on the phone was clueless, #bmo has no concern how this effects its clients. Many of us now sit and wait for access to our own accounts. #ridiculous.
