Getting in Touch Beyond the Branch
For anything that doesn’t need an in-person visit, the Client Contact Centre at Standard Chartered@Chiromo, Level 4, 48 Westlands Road, can handle most queries over the phone on +254 20 329 3000. The bank’s mobile app and online banking platform also cover day-to-day transactions, bill payments and account management without needing a branch visit at all.
A quick note on hours: Saturday banking has been getting phased out at several branches, and some locations run shorter hours during public holidays, so it’s worth a quick call to the specific branch before heading over, especially if you’re making the trip for something time-sensitive like a large cash withdrawal or a corporate transaction.
