Starling

I have nothing but good things to say about starling, I researched alternative banks and found starling came up better than all the others and suit my needs as a serving soldier aboard much better than say Monzo or revelout who I found not very suitable unless I was willing to pay the extra money Reviewed on: 13th March 2024

Such a great bank, always a step ahead.

Such a great bank, always a step ahead of what customers want. It has been great teaching the kids about using their money and budgeting, without having to pay for it. Having the cards linked to the parents account is a bonus as is the shareable link which allows friends and families to pay direct into it for birthdays etc. Reviewed on: 13th March 2024

Excellent service

I joined Starling in January 2023 and have had no issues at all. I transferred my children’s accounts over this year and am very happy with the service overall. The main reasons were the account being free but also no charges on foreign currency withdrawals. Reviewed on: 13th March 2024

Very responsive customer service, & the price is right

5
Very responsive customer service, and the product is the very best possible price. I looked at the alternatives and they either cost a lot more or did not have the level of ability to monitor my child's spending. Reviewed on: 13th March 2024
