A Bank that leads the non-high-street way

I was at first skeptical signing up to Starling because I had never used any bank other than a high street one. The prospect of having everything done online, with no opportuntiy to visit a branch if anything went wrong, seemed daunting. Starling, however, completely put my mind at ease with a reassuring and surprisingly approach to banking. So much so I now believe that customers can gain a much more valuable experience without visiting a branch. Even though Starling's history in the banking world has been short, I believe they are leading the way - the non-high-street way. Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

Excellent features, especially when abroad

We travel a lot abroad, and always use our Starling Debit Card. We always get an excellent exchange rate to pounds Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

Ease, control, simplicity!

I was very late in the game to finding Starling - a friend recommend them and if I am honest, I really wanted a current account that had a beautiful coloured debit card lol! I have both a current and business account with starling and I am over the moon with them! Everything is just easy and simple and doesn’t stress me out like my previous mainstream banks did. I feel like I have more control over my money with starling. In a period where we’ve had very little control over anything in our lives - this means a lot to me. I would recommend Starling to everyone and anyone for personal and business. Reviewed on: 16th February 2022
