Love Starling. We transferred our accounts a couple of years ago and haven’t looked back. Easy to use, intuitive and also constantly making improvements and listening to customers needs. I’d recommend Starling to anyone. Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

Easy, uncomplicated, does what I need it to do.

I have still not taken the plunge and switched to Starling as my main financial provider, but I think I will in the near future. My current building society (Nationwide) no longer values my business now that I have paid off my mortgage. They have made it quite obvious that they don't care if I stay or leave. After 26 years I find this insulting and baffling. They also allowed an outdated building and contents insurance policy run for 3 years after it was discontinued and had been replaced by one that was 50% cheaper! Yes Nationwide still has high street branches but I don't feel that justifies its terrible customer service. Watch this space. Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

Great

The best bank I've ever had

No more faff with customer service or waiting for features that got developed by others years ago. This is the last bank account you'll ever have, trust me. Reviewed on: 16th February 2022
