Refreshing new style bank

5
I’ve never had any issue with Starling. If I need to speak to Customer Services it’s virtually instant via chat or in person by the phone. Nothing seems too much for this bank. Interest rates from the big 4 On the savings. The convenience of a euro account attached to my current account makes transactions abroad easier and less costly as the big 4 Banks charge for using abroad and the best thing is being tied to the MasterCard exchange rate when travelling abroad instead of a Tourist rate of exchange makes this also very cost-effective Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

In addition to making banking so much easier, I had a great experience when I needed to resolve an issue with my bank. It was quick, I was informed every step of the way, and the issue was resolved without fuss. Great bank! Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Starling won't give you the bird

5
From the initial easy opening of my account to the simplicity of daily operation Starling is hard to beat. I particularly like the instant notification of payments in or out and customer service, though hardly ever required is second to none. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022
