I am enraged by most adverts, but this was really funny, I actually searched it up to watch it again a year later because I liked it that much.

[@katsimoto2044]

I love the song. I been looking for it for years. Now I found it and shazamed it. Yipee

[@Red-yc7vl]

What’s the songgg

[@ShonziTho]

@@Red-yc7vl"i feel free - cream" says it in the dropdown description btw in case u ever wonder what the song is in other videos 😊

[@seanp6990]

Sounds like the beatles

[@polo424242]

Why is there never an option to skip this ad?

[@larrytalbot3824]

0:41 he's smiling now, but shortly he & most of the rest of the folks in there will be picking shards of broken glass from their faces.

[@gabrielborjas7923]

she literally smashed through the glass and didn't cut her face, so it's safe to assume they'll be ok lol

[@woozuk79]

Starling Bank. For the sort of person who is inspired by the idea of going into someone’s business premises, throwing their paperwork everywhere and causing malicious damage to their ceiling, potentially injuring dozens of people with glass debris.

[@jacky8470]

lol

[@garethdwright91]

Most annoying advert of all time. I hate it so much. I looked it up deliberately just so I had somewhere to type out my distain. I'm opening an account with Monzo after this.

[@ApatheticGod0]

The symbolism! Very subtle. Veeeery subtle

[@2icelollys1goat]

You mean metaphorical? Cos what does symbolism mean in this sense?

[@jacky8470]

What was the symbolism when she was throwing paperwork everywhere and broke the glass ceiling (potentially injuring dozens)

[@Wishmaster787]

​@@jacky8470the ethnic minorities are smiling and cheering her on whereas the evil old white men are trying to stop her

[@oliverstemp9132]

I use Starling, it’s brilliant, easy to use and it’s been very reliable so far. Why aren’t more banks like this

[@grassytramtracks]

Because the big banks are complacent and bureaucratic, not ready to adapt to the modern customer and most people won't bother changing just out of inertia, and people often think it's too hard, even though it's not

[@sweeneagle16]

Well that went from zero to weapon of choice real fast. lol.

[@tale_play]

By far the best Banking App I've ever used. Love the service and the features it brings.

[@WhyDoIComment]

Heavy Weapon of Choice feel

[@kflem80]

I didn't realise Thiago Silva starred in this ad

[@cascito]

came here just to listen to the song... my favourite band CREAM.... unexpected tho...

[@antoniaanni1007]

Makes me feel uncomfortable - there’s the glass and there’s the floating about in a skirt..eek

[@maddestmax6522]

The song in this advert is awful and is annoying till this day

[@Luke-kp1px]

yep

[@ELPaso1990TX]

I heard the advert was filmed in Kyiv Ukraine before the war.

[@ericbarns6525]

I am starling bank customer i dont have a phone but want to login into my bank account. I am also a developer but that also needs aa phone too! For customer who loos their phones what do you advise them to do in emergency?

[@aaronanthonyclithero1429]

Do they have one in England ? obviously, they have one in Dubai, Karachi, China.....or am I wrong again !!

[@oliverstemp9132]

It’s an all digital bank with no physical branches. However Starling are a brilliant bank, best one for a current account

[@chandrandev9]

So if I join starling bank I will be able to fly. That would save money on airline tickets 😂😂

[@grassytramtracks]

And save the planet at the same time!

[@Dancerlemoniscewldood]

Shows up as an ad too much

[@ArnieS1947]

Wow. Look at who's flying, who's smiling and who's trying to hold her down. Very subtle messaging! I'd never heard of your company, but I would now never bank with you.

[@grassytramtracks]

there was at least one black person, but anyway, let's face it bank managers are generally some old fart

[@RebeccaAnneDiner]

Not me thinking Vecna got her

[@zachsingh1]

Vecna?

[@galmando1984]

Interesting when you look at who is trying to 'pull her down'... pretty offensive actually...

[@shaunpatrick8345]

The whole thing is unrepresentative of the potential customer base.

[@grassytramtracks]

let's face it, bank managers are generally some old fart. anyway, I thought it was the left that were too sensitive and got offended over nothing?

[@petrumihalyka7329]

Is Starling good for crypto investors ?

[@johnmcclainejriii5829]

I will bank with you if you promise to stop showing your ad every five minutes.

[@puppetryaizaislam2011]

i've seen this video on 2021 !!

[@jacksondacatty2088]

max stranger things?

[@ELPaso1990TX]

Where was this advert made? Looks like the US or Australia

[@shaunpatrick8345]

It's in "Advert Britain" where the British people have been got rid of. They show us their racist fantasy in the content they produce.

[@Guted77]

@@shaunpatrick8345 you must live in a very white area

[@Bogatovm]

It was made in Ukraine, Kyiv

[@jacky8470]

ofc its british like this is such a terrible idea for a commercial

[@ELPaso1990TX]

@@jacky8470 I’ve recently heard it was made in Grozny in Chechnya or surrounding area in north Caucasus. But if it was there then why aren’t the notices in the bank in Russian Cyrillic script? Adds to the mystery of where it was?

Applicaton been rejected for no valid raison! They Do not want customers!

NEVER USE THIS BANK. THEY HAVE FROZEN MY ACCOUNT WITHOUT AND REASON, NOR EXPLANATION AND CANT ACCESS MY MONEY AND ITS HORRIBLE AND WORST OF ALL THEY DONT RESPOND DEPSITE 4 DAYS OF FALSE PROMISES !!! BEWARE

[@jamesbell1026]

Hey, just a note for your market team, i believe this bank managed to completely override the anxiety young people face when going to a bank irl for the first time and for anybody turning 18 it is a lifesaver to be able to open an account easily with no social awkward interactions. I have many positive thoughts and feelings towards this bank so I am happy to provide any more tips if the social team Deems necessary. I reckon you should take the bank in a direction where it gets people thinking about how it can reduce stress and anxiety, and do a study on how it affects mental health too. Let me know what you think and say thank you to Anne for me btw! 😊

[@shaunpatrick8345]

Do you think selling to people too socially awkward to talk to someone in a suit is a good business model?

Starling Bank loves foreigners, their advert is full of foreigners, this is offensive to the white indigenous people of the UK, remove your offensive adverts

[@grassytramtracks]

you can't cope with an advert containing non white people and think it's offensive and they said left wingers are snowflakes... I also thought that it was supposed to be left wingers who were against free speech, they can include non white people in their ads if they want, why should they listen to some random person on the internet like you telling them what to do? if it upsets you so deeply, take your business elsewhere

SO MUCH FOR SETTING PEOPLE FREE! Starling has queried 1 transaction on my business account and proceeded to block my personal account. I have given them all the information they requested and they refuse to unblock my personal account In short, DO NOT USE THIS UNTRUSTWORTHY BANK!
