My experience with this App is the worst I've ever imagined. First, sparkle is unable to verify my address multiple occasions, which I found strange. Secondly, the app does not sign me in, it rolls endlessly for more than one week even after multiple reinstallations. I have written, yet no feedback.

Hi Samuel, we acknowledged your email and responded but didn’t receive a follow-up from your end. As discussed during our phone conversation, please install the latest version of the app and provide your detailed address for verification so that your account can be upgraded. Keep Sparkling.

I'm only giving a one star because I can't give half. There's nothing user friendly about your app. Why will I open an application and for over ten minutes I'm not logged into my account yet?! You people need to do better a fintech because minus managing people's money you should have a stable app and not this embarrassing thing

Hi Ndeti, the login issue you’re experiencing may be due to a network delay on your end, as the app has been working fine. That said, we’d love to review this further for you. Please send us a message at support@sparkle.ng with all available details, or share your complaint ticket ID. We’ll be more than happy to assist you. Keep Sparkling.
