Best move ever

5
We are so impressed with Starling Bank. They make banking so simple and peace of mind. We were very cautious about changing as it seemed so different, but so glad we did. Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

Awesome bank and app

5
So easy to use, great features! So good I switched everything to Starling Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

Fab Online Bank!

5
I love being able to pay in cheques via the App, to be able to send money easily and the greatest part is getting a notification every time money is drawn out or paid in - gives a real sense of security, whereas with other banks the onus is on me to keep checking my statements, or my card gets blocked because that bank 'thinks' I may have been a victim of fraud. With Starling I know immediately if I my account has been compromised - a notification that is worth its weight in gold! Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

At last a bank that listens to its customers. A bank that’s safe and secure and a fantastic banking app giving a total peace of mind. Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

Easy to set up and use

5
My current account was single to set up and easy to use. The help features and option to ask any questions are great as are the options to contact Starling (unlike our other mains street bank which now has no local branches and is impossible to contact). I love this bank! Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

Fantastic service and does everything I want

5
I love the fact that I can easily contact Starling at any time and speak to a real person - this takes away so much stress compared to other banks. I absolutely love the savings spaces - in the past I have had to open several accounts with a bank to be able to make individual saving areas for my money and constantly been asked to review the accounts because I have several open. This is so much easier to see what I have, to add pictures of your goals as motivation and rounding up money so you save without realising. I have just started a business and didn’t hesitate to use them for my business account (although I may need a partnership account in the future and there is no option for one… yet) I recommend Starling everyone. Well done on creating a bank designed for its customers! Reviewed on: 16th February 2022
