👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾 3/5
By drock912
Can never activate games with my phone. Always brings up one of my credit cards instead.
Forced Personal Information Collection 1/5
By Cache2010
App forces you to disclose your information and sign up for marketing emails, just to use it, not even to place an order
Can’t log in to existing account 1/5
By kaii10583
No way to log in by email. When entering phone which exists in account, it forces me to create new account…useless.
Digital card went missing 1/5
By Dawnerd
I had a digital card and it went away. If I try to add the physical card it just says error.
Can’t handle cards worth beans 1/5
By OtakuMan28
I have been a patron of Dave & Buster’s establishments for years, and over the years I have accumulated many, many Dave & Buster’s cards. In this current release of the app, I am finding it almost impossible to manage my cards. Each time I try and open the section for cards now, it gives me an error message since it can’t pull information from the server. It didn’t used to do this, but suddenly the app has become virtually un-usable.
I’m hoping the next version of the app resolves this issue with card management.
Lousy 1/5
By ang---H
All my cards are gone and when I try and re-add them I get an error message about something wrong on D&B side and they’re working to untangle it. 3 days now and it’s not untangled. I had an offer for $50 for $25 and cannot access since I do t have the cards associated with the account anymore. Extremely extremely frustrating
Glitches 99% of the time 1/5
By firechild910
Glitches ALL THE TIME. I can barely look at a card stats let alone recharge without it erroring out. Terrible coding.
Dumbest App 1/5
By Wadj411
I received text code and whenever I enter it, it says oops something went wrong try again. You know what’s wrong....someone needs to fix the app. I reinstalled app 2-3 times and attempted to login a month apart and issue still has not been fixed.
Bad 1/5
By JJ Jolly
Can’t get past login stage
App doesn’t work 1/5
By carlosc30
When I try to log on into the app it require me to put my phone number and when I did it suppose to give me a code but it didn’t so I try to resend the code and it still didn’t gave me a code. So dissatisfied
Keeps crashing 1/5
By therobinsnest27
App keeps crashing.
Horrible App 2/5
By DesertRose7
I have a love/hate relationship with this app. If it’s actually working then the app is great, but that’s only about 25% of the time. Most of the time I get a variety of error messages and can’t get anything to load. No matter how many times I delete and re-download the app, still issues.
Pointless 1/5
By whyyouneednickname?
This app is pointless. It takes the place of “power card”. You can use your phone instead of the card but you still get charged the $3 “activation fee” when you use your phone. Just save the space on your phone and get the card plus you won’t have to take your phone out fifty times during your visit.
App doesn’t show menu for the location or give any details. Just power card replacement
App doesn’t work 1/5
By wendo001
Any time I try to use it the app always says it’s not working and I get an error message once I open it.
Reloading power card on app issues 3/5
By Cop head
Trying to “buy” a card (yesterday) on the app wouldn’t work no matter how many times I tried. So I purchased the card at the location and added it to the app. Now I cannot reload the card on the app no matter how many times I try. Sort of a waste of space on my phone to have an app that serves no real purpose. 🤷🏻♀️
Can’t do anything 1/5
By Lil' Cookie 🍪
Literally every time I open this app I see “Oops! Something went wrong” I can’t do even a single thing on this app no matter how many times I restarted my phone and reinstalled
Overall, pretty good. 5/5
By Heyitsmikey
I've used the app and wallet features without issue but I arrived at D&B in Concord, CA, and couldn't reload. The only solution the team could offer would be a new card, plus activation fee. 🙄 It was fine last week at the new Fairfield location. 🤷🏻♂️ Well, it's a great app when it works. I find syncing issues with wallet versus the app, but I refer to the screen on the game to give me real-time information. Hope you get this fixed because I love feeling like a kid again! Leaving 5 stars because it's a simple bug that can be fixed on the next update. Overall, the app is pretty good and convenient so you can have one less physical card to carry around.
Can’t recharge 1/5
By Twolf32455
The new update has problems with recharging/reloading existing cards regardless of what method is used.
Broken app 1/5
By CristovalF
Every time I try to run the app and recharge my card through the app there’s an issue EVERYTIME!!
App does not work 1/5
By grk12345
Cant do anything on the app. Cant enter power card information in and when I go to contact on the help center, I also cannot submit there. Nothing has worked
App broken 1/5
By briz4903
Can’t get it to reload any power cards. Tried several payment methods and just comes up as an error.
Worthless 1/5
By bisbell1298
Just downloaded the app, put in payment method, tried to reload cards, said payment failed. Tried again… same thing. Tried new payment method… same thing. I know one thing… it’s not my credit cards.
Apple Pay 1/5
By IMORTALX13
Every time I go to use Apple Pay it says payment failed and my card information is correct for all my cards I believe you need to update the app to fix the Apple pay issue this is irritating.
Rewards not received 1/5
By Aaron Ling
Bought $100 in store because buying on the app resulted in constant error messages.
Emailed and called support for the rewards. Never got a call back or a email back. This was three weeks ago. Horrible customer support.
Never seems to work 2/5
By SamKC88
Only worked the first time I downloaded and it worked awesome. But now it just glitches out and nothing loads.
Don’t bother 1/5
By KJ323
App is useless. Better to just get a physical card at the least. The staff are at least helpful in getting you straightened out.
Cost me $3 2/5
By T-razzle-dazzle
I downloaded the app in hopes of saving $3 on the Power Card activation fee. I tried for an hour straight to use the digital card feature on the app and despite multiple attempts to close and re-open as well as reinstall the app it never worked. Now I have to use a physical card like a peasant. The description on the last update says they fixed bugs - well I guess “what’s new” should really say “what’s next” amiright? Dave and Busters?? More like Dave and BUSTED! (Refund me $3 and I will happily change this to a glowing 5 star review.).
Great In theory 1/5
By jkp653
Downloaded it at a D&B. Keep getting a “there’s an issue” error message when trying to do… anything. Tried. One ting to the D&B wifi and it still didn’t work. Seems like a cool idea, but ideas are a dime a dozen. No execution.
Broken 1/5
By Ryguydudeman
Just like all their games at the physical location, the app is broken too. Not even the verification email link works. Can’t add cards, can’t get cards. Don’t download
You should be able to make reservations 4/5
By autocorrect ridiculous
It is a cool app it’s just that you should be able to make a reservation to the food whith the app
Does not work well 1/5
By hdslr
I tried using it for virtual reality game I purchased from the app. The game charged 8 chips and then said card error. It did this twice. 🙄
Terrible 1/5
By philchrist
App doesn’t work
Something went wrong 2/5
By NocturnalSignal
What a garbage app. I don’t think I’ve ever oriented it and not seen a ‘Whoops. Something went wrong’ message. It’s completely busted. Constantly logs you out. Doesn’t track rewards correctly. Rarely shows promotional offerings that are emailed and require the app to process. Just complete garbage.
App Never Works 1/5
By aja99981
Sends me emails with promotional offers, and when i go to the app it gives me an error message and i cannot redeem it. Extremely glitchy. Please update.
Glitches 2/5
By pfcbo
If there’s a promotion and it’s only accessible on the app there’s always glitches and the store can’t even help you or honor the promotion
NEVER WORKS. 1/5
By rbowie04
this app has never worked once for as long as I’ve had it. I have an iPhone XR so I know it should be working. I constantly get the “error on our end, we’ll work to fix it” message. If only they had just stuck with the old system, that actually worked. None of this digital crap. You’re supposed to go to Dave and Busters to have fun. I’ve been having the exact opposite.
Absolute trash. Doesn’t work. Can’t recharge. 1/5
By Clemjay
Says something wrong on our end.
App always has an error 1/5
By Angry MOM 1031
The idea of the app is great but it never works. It always says, “hang tight. There is an error on our end.”
Does not work 1/5
By Clownzilla
Apparently the “Problem on our side” error has been around since 2020 based on the reviews. Still there and makes this app essentially useless. I uninstalled it.
Doesn't work 1/5
By kyleesi
Can't use the app. Always get error messages. Impossible to claim BOGO $25 play deal
Doesn’t work. Can’t recharge card. 1/5
By KevinLazaroff
I used to love this app. But it’s entirely broken now. I opened an offer to redeem for $25 in free chips, then “an error occurred” and the offer disappeared. Went to recharge the card the normal way, and keep getting hit with an error message. Deleted and redownloading did nothing to fix this. Unusable at the moment.
App coupons don’t work. Edit: they ended up fixing the glitch and I was able to redeem the coupon. 5/5
By jedntocnep
The app coupons usually doesn’t work. It says there’s an error on their side and the coupon ends up expiring before I can even use it.
Doesn’t work 1/5
By Vaeric
Went to use this newer app today and nothing worked. It constantly threw errors. I received an email saying buy $25 in chips and get $25 in chips free, but I had to purchase through the app that doesn’t work. I asked the front desk at the D&B that we were at and they said there was nothing they could do - I had to use the coupon through the app. Well, the app is broken and no longer providing a way to redeem coupons without the app is a horrible decision. I also couldn’t recharge my virtual card because the app is broken. It’s a lot of good ideas that are extremely poorly executed. Please fix and allow alternate ways to redeem rewards and coupons.
Needs updating 1/5
By Waterfish333
This app used to be much better, but since end of last year it’s been all but broken on the iPhone. Can’t recharge, constantly crashes. Development team really needs to get on the ball to make this at least usable again.
Can’t reload using the app. 1/5
By Lady Fishface
I am glad to know it’s not just me having issues. I keep getting an error message trying to reload the card.
Doesn’t work 1/5
By D&B app
Every time I try to do anything including load my card or anything, I just get an error message saying “looks like there’s an issue. We’ll untie that knot and get it working” but nothing is ever working.
Broken app 1/5
By Jemsrn
I had the updated app and got an email that was spend $25 get $25 game credit. Thought, that’s cool, I’ll take the BF for Father’s Day. Good thing I went to purchase the credit before I said anything because the app kept giving me errors!!!! In EVERY tab!!!! Super annoying! I used to love this app, but this new update is USELESS! Won’t be going til it’s fixed
App is broken 1/5
By DJones183
The app no longer let's you add offers or recharge in the app. The options are still there but an error always occurs when you try. I use my phone as a digital card and now I can only recharge it in the restaurant. My restaurant has staffing problems and no longer staffs the front registers so I can't recharge at all now.
App NEVER WORKS!! 1/5
By Ctiggemann
The app simply never works. Every time you do any action within the app it always says that there’s an error and please try again later and that whoever’s in charge is working on it. But it never gets fixed. Even before they did their big makeover and change the app to the newer version, it didn’t even work then either! The same error reads whenever trying to add a credit card, recharge your current Dave & Buster’s card, opening rewards, and also when checking your messages for any deals or coupons. It’s the same message over and over every time you try to do anything within the app itself, it’s completely useless!
