Good Experience

Was easy to open the account and I have always received clear information about what is happening with my account. Reviewed on: 5th January 2020

I left hsbc to join starling. Will never regret it

The starling mobile app makes banking secure and by far the easiest way to control every aspect of your banking Reviewed on: 5th January 2020

The easiest way to bank by far!

5
I'm so pleased that when I moved my sole trading company to a limited one that I decided to bank with Starling. They honestly make banking so easy and fast! I can pay people in a matter of seconds, get instant notifications when clients pay me so the I can instantly mark it off my accountancy software, and they make saving a dream! Will goals, (like mini saving accounts within your business account) I can keep track of putting money away for my tax bill at the end of the year, as well as saving for a kitchen I need to buy next year. It keeps everything so organised that it takes all stress away... well all banking stress anyway! Reviewed on: 5th January 2020

I feel valued, by an App!

5
The banking proceeses with Starling are so happily straightforward with an App that has been structured and written in plain english. My previous banking provider was one of the 'big four' - an old term - and it had felt that I was with then due to a lack of inertia. Reviewed on: 5th January 2020
