I changed from NatWest and its so easy, ethical and customer services is excellent. I had a problem at 10pm Saturday night and got through immediately. Sunday morning an agent phoned to check that everything was OK. Suberb. Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

I’m so happy to now be with Starling bank. I became disillusioned with the bank that I’d been with for many years and decided to give Starling a try. I wish that I’d done it earlier. So much better, particularly if I make a purchase online they check with me first that it’s me making the purchase and I approve the tranaction. Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

From paying in cheques with a photo to transferring money to children to paying bills, Starling Bank is just superb and so much better than the monolithic older banks. They have a clearer ethical stance as well. Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

It makes banking so easy I genuinely believe they actually have the customer best interests as a core of their business. No more being fobbed off in a branch with completely unprofessional personnel. I can get things done automatically but, if needed can still speak with a human being Reviewed on: 16th February 2022
