Lightyears ahead of other banks

We moved to Starling a year ago, after having a horrendous time with our previous high street bank. The experience was like night and day. Starling have been consistently efficient, responsive and helpful since the moment we signed up. Their processing times are incredibly fast, and they always go out of their way to make sure we are happy with their service and to check if there is anything they can do to help us. Their app gives us the visibility we need and all the features you would expect of a cutting edge challenger bank, but their service seems comprehensive and trustworthy enough for us to have absolute faith in them. During the last Covid-19 lockdown we were uncertain about our cashflow, and they helped us apply for the CBIL loan. The experience was extremely smooth, and they were very informative.

Simple, easy, effective

Amazing app with all of the integrations I need (Xero etc). Incredibly simple to use and excellent customer service on the rare occasion that I've needed it (e.g. to make a larger than usual payout). Reviewed on: 20th January 2021

Makes business banking a breeze

5
I love that business banking is free with Starling and makes it easy for me to handle, label and categorize the needs of our business. I'm also very fond of how easy it is to add Euro or USD accounts as extensions of our business because we do business in those countries and it makes it easier. Reviewed on: 20th January 2021
