The Best Bank I have banked with

5
I have been with this online bank for a few years now and I have to say its simplicity itself and the app works just fine from sending payments to adding a cheque that is so useful saves having to run around to post office its awesome and I dont normally leave reviews but felt I had to here as people are good at giving bad reviews but not good ones Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Best bank ever

Best and easiest I've ever used ... No problems whatsoever compared to others I've had Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Just brilliant!!!

I was certainly apprehensive at first. I have never tried saving before anywhere! But I thought I'd give Starling a go & am so glad I did!. In the few short months I've managed to save enough for an intensive driving lesson course. I'm definitely switching to Starling to use as my main account & have my wages paid into it. Thank you for making banking easy! Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Amazing bank!

5
Have been with Starling for just over a year since switching from another digital bank after a disappointing experience. The signup was easy, the Starling app is great to use and makes it really easy to manage our budgets and any questions we've had have been answered very quickly. My wife and I so enjoyed the experience that we've opened personal, joint and business accounts with Starling! Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Kudos for sustainability commitment

5
I like Starling because they are committed to being a sustainable bank and have an ethics statement available on their website. I think every bank should be like that but sadly most are not, so it's important to recognize Starling's efforts :) Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

It does what it says on the tin

5
The services of high street banks have declined appallingly, and I felt that I had been abandoned by them, so I reciprocated and have pretty much abandoned the high street. Starling was recommended to me as a modern day banking service, and I have not been disappointed. Easy to use, and good communication when needed. Very good for everyday use, and excellent when travelling overseas. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Best bank in world
