While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more
To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software.

“I have recently had the pleasure of working with Mr. Arian Gashi (Branch of Sparkasse Neumarkt) and I cannot speak highly enough of the exceptional service I received. I have been to several banks but none have been as dedicated and patient as Mr. Gashi. He took the time to listen to my needs, answer all of my questions and walk me through the loan process step by step.
His expertise and professionalism were evident throughout the process. I really appreciate his attention to detail and his willingness to do whatever it takes to make sure everything is in order. Thanks to his help, I was able to meet my expectations.
If you are in need of a knowledgeable and reliable advisor to assist you with your banking affairs, I would highly recommend Mr. Arian Gashi. He is an asset to the industry and I look forward to working with him again in the future."

I have used Sparkasse KoelnBonn when I was a student, and they offered me a really good student package; much better than what was offered to a few others of my friends who were using other banks (as students too).
Their app is really nice (for something that isn't an online bank in its essence like say Revolut), and it is very reliable.
One annoying thing about Sparkasse in general is that there are some things that you can only do in the branch (in the Bundesland / state) where you have opened your account (like cash deposits and account closure), but I was informed about these things when I first opened my account since Sparkasse is sort of a different entity in each state.
I can't vouch for their normal non-student packages though.
One of the worst experiences I have been exposed to in terms of banking. They do not inform clients properly and sometimes make mistakes from their side, what could result in unexpected decrease of your account amount...
Generally speaking, there seems to be a shortage of skilled personnel in the bank (some staff are absolutely ignorant).
