Point of contact (Ginny Parry) has been very prompt and helpful. It would be easier to be able to apply online rather than branch/ post only Reviewed on: 2nd April 2021

Making A Difference

Every bank and building society talks about being there for its members. But this year Darlington have truely been there, treading a tight rope between remaining open and looking after members like me. Well done Darlington! Reviewed on: 30th March 2021
