User Reviews

Users like the BC Services Card app for its video identity verification, speed, and ability to access CRA and other services without in-person visits. However, frequent reliability problems dominate: repeated re-verification, login loops, and cross-platform bugs; installation errors (especially iOS) and data loss risk during updates; and the requirement to have a BC Services Card to use the app, which excludes newcomers. The onboarding and support also feel lacking, with unclear instructions. Overall, strong concept and potential, but stability and accessibility issues hinder consistent use.
Pros
  • Video-based identity verification saves trips to service centers and speeds up setup.
  • Seamless access to other government sites (e.g., CRA) with secure login.
  • Overall quick and convenient service that saves time.
  • Innovative, modern approach to digital identity.
Cons
  • Frequent verification/registration failures and identity not recognized, forcing repeated setup or re-verification.
  • Installation/update bugs and 'not installed correctly' errors across iOS/Android, with data loss risk during updates.
  • Cannot use the app without a BC Services Card, excluding newcomers and some residents.
  • Login friction: must use phone/app and biometrics; no password option and multiple login loops.
  • Poor onboarding and support: unclear instructions, long wait times, and unhelpful contact options.

This required update is a nightmare. In order to do it I have to delete the app and start all over again. And I lose all the data on it. Calling BC services is no help. I was told to call my MLA if I have an issue with this. Your tax dollars at work!

I have not yet figured out how to login from my computer without my phone being around with the app loaded on it. Various codes that you go back-and-forth during the log in process on your computer, but Ultimately you have to have both of them. The computer asked for a username and password. All I have is a username. Obviously this was all set up on the app on the phone using face recognition, which is cool but sometimes I don’t have my phone with me, and apparently you can’t login without it. Further, I cannot submit this review without supplying a nickname. And it is suggesting that every nickname I’ve chosen is not available. Even complete gibberish is already taken!

This app does not work at all. There has been a bug for the iPhone where after verification and even receiving an email saying I’ve been verified, the app does not progress and just says I need to re-download the app and resubmit identification steps. I then switch to an Android because this is a known issue with iPhones for months apparently and it’s still not fixed. Anyways, I switch to Android and it still doesn’t work! Saying again I need to redownload the app. I can’t believe how buggy this app is. So frustrating.
