Checking in, before they check out.

@TheLucyBShow @builders_hub @AjCurling @TheWhiteHartWad @homewatchsecur1 @StarlingBank @AnneBoden I agree, either way its going to be messy without structure. But lessons should of been learnt .. the high street banks who have too many staff and departments struggled.. therefore a Lessons learnt should of been produced and rolled out by the @BritishBBank

[D. Sammer @DoOrDont5]

@builders_hub @AjCurling @TheWhiteHartWad @homewatchsecur1 @StarlingBank @AnneBoden I think its just down to the old saying "biting off more than you can chew". They should of safe guarded themselves, and opened applications for say 200 people at a time, increasing in volume as the process became more fluid.

@Bounce_BackLoan I am heading towards the 35 hour club, to which I am hoping comes with a badge of some sort. All jokes aside, I have been trying to fight the corner most of today, and its clear to say.. I am not winning.

[D. Sammer @DoOrDont5]

@AjCurling @builders_hub @TheWhiteHartWad @homewatchsecur1 @StarlingBank @AnneBoden For once, somebody actually made me laugh out loud today! Let's hope @StarlingBank are enjoying the humour whilst proceeding with our applicati... oh...

[D. Sammer @DoOrDont5]

@builders_hub @TheWhiteHartWad @AjCurling @homewatchsecur1 @StarlingBank @AnneBoden I, like most, aren't going to hold my breath for this evening.

[D. Sammer @DoOrDont5]

@TheWhiteHartWad @AjCurling @homewatchsecur1 @StarlingBank @AnneBoden Thats great news! let's hope that they're finally working their way through the backlog .. I applied around 10:03, not that I assume timing will play any part in their assessment. Best of luck in the rest of your application and utilising your funds, feel free to keep us posted!

@AjCurling @TheWhiteHartWad @homewatchsecur1 @StarlingBank @AnneBoden Another show of poor communication and poor management from @StarlingBank. Whilst many LTD companies that applied yesterday still wait for conformation, Sole trader application are fast tracked. I am a firm believer in being equal but where is the loyalty in this approach?

[D. Sammer @DoOrDont5]

@AjCurling @TheWhiteHartWad @homewatchsecur1 @StarlingBank Well, in that case, it just proves they have zero control on the applications and probably have back logs further then Mr trumps wall.

[D. Sammer @DoOrDont5]

@TheWhiteHartWad @AjCurling @homewatchsecur1 @StarlingBank 2 - People that have had an account open with us for X amount of time or X amount of business revenue get priority

[D. Sammer @DoOrDont5]

@TheWhiteHartWad @AjCurling @homewatchsecur1 @StarlingBank I think this could be the common denominator,

Were looking at two scenarios

1 - " process everything under 15k(example) and hit our status quo in successful application churn ", anything above X, hold, then bin due to insufficient documentation or something similar [Continued]

[D. Sammer @DoOrDont5]

@AjCurling @homewatchsecur1 @StarlingBank The only thing that collectively works to get an answer or a reply is the following;

- Positive disruption on their social media (which naturally incites negative PR)
- Log an official complaint, then take it up with the ombudsman at a later date.

Handling has been poor.

[D. Sammer @DoOrDont5]

@AjCurling @StarlingBank A little insider source advised me that Tide are announcing their accreditation this week, so its probably worth registering with them this evening as your back up plan.

[D. Sammer @DoOrDont5]

@AjCurling @StarlingBank I imagine there are many more and it seems that there's no resolution in sight. In all honesty, I transferred my account to starling to avoid such a scenario. As a member of the IoD and a few establishment, I feel I have been mislead and should of stayed with my current provider.

[D. Sammer @DoOrDont5]

@theBBLS @StarlingBank I fully agree with the volume, however for those who applied at 10am that have been "back trooped" against those who applied at 1300 onwards is where the frustration lies. If there were complex applications, a simple email would of reassured most. Looking forward to your article.

[D. Sammer @DoOrDont5]

@theBBLS Would be interesting to gauge your opinion/thoughts around the hundreds of applicants still awaiting any form of response following submissions at 10am yesterday morning? I understand @StarlingBank are busy, but the lack of comms to those in the 30hour club is appalling.

[D. Sammer @DoOrDont5]

@LoanPains @StarlingBank 31 hours waiting for a response... I wouldn't call the roll out a success... Basically portraying a smarter looking version of Barclays.

[D. Sammer @DoOrDont5]

@LewisEv76005298 @StarlingBank 31 hours and counting...

[D. Sammer @DoOrDont5]

@Harrogatesquire @RishiSunak @StarlingBank I hate to dampen the mood, but you fell in to the lucky category Rick, and I am most pleased that your BBL experience was smooth, however there is still a huge backlog from 10am yesterday with no visible light at the end of the tunnel. #Iwouldntcallitasuccess

[D. Sammer @DoOrDont5]

@Don_Jonesy @Bounce_BackLoan @StarlingBank 50% of their workforce? Thats a tad unfair, I am sure they spread their workforce equally to each tweeter whilst manning the fort. And as dreamy as that sounds, at this moment I would prefer a heater, some wine and my BBLS if you're taking the time to to get to know me.
