Some concerns

3
Yet to be convinced cash is safe. On a few occasions transactions taken incorrectly but Starling says 'you'll get it back within 30 days.' Other concern is that you can only call 'in emergencies'. Apart from that, ok so far. Reviewed on: 30th December 2019

Great customer service!

5
I had a little trouble setting everything up and a few teething troubles and the customer service was always excellent. Reviewed on: 30th December 2019

Highly recommended and appreciated

5
I initially got a Starling account for the free cash withdrawals and payments in foreign countries and initially used it as a holiday account. Gradually I increased it to include money transfers to/from friends. Now I am in the process of switching my main account over to Starling. Whenever I have had query or an idea of how they could improve, I always felt that I have been listened too. Reviewed on: 30th December 2019

Even TSB staff agree Starling are great

5
I was sick and tired of how archaic the ‘Old Guard’ of business banking had been, laborious in any task, let alone simply trying to login! Then came along this lik’ beauty, Starling and never looked back since. And hey, I knew I was doing the right thing as when I went in to local TSB brand to close account, even they agreed with me Starling is better. What better recommendation that from the competition! Reviewed on: 30th December 2019

Best banking experience ever! Even a little fun

5
Been with Starling bank as my main bank for about a year and never had a problem. Every penny into or out of the account is easy to track, combine this with instant notifications and 1 to 3 days notice of upcoming direct debits and you always know exactly where you stand financially. Reviewed on: 30th December 2019
