Cannot verify credentials
First, it was a huge hassle to sign up for this service. Now, app gives me error message that it cannot verify my creditials. Called customer service and was transferred several times. Finally got to a rep, and he sees no problem. But, have a good day! Meh... going back to Square!

Doesn't work on rooted phone.
I was going to switch away from my expensive traditional card system, but not being able to run on rooted devices makes this worthless to me. I've always been happy with BoA but this really tarnished my opinion of the company.

Work around for rooted phones
This might be a hassle for some but it works. Whenever the rooted phone pop up appears just hit the back button and it goes away. You have to do this every time it pops up but you can still use the app. Don't press ok or the app will force close. Its not perfect but it works. Hope this helps.
