Amazing service!

As a customer, I was notified instantly about any transaction. It is very easy to send money abroad, and they ask me permission every time when online payments require Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

After being disappointed by my previous banking provider, I switched to Starling. It was very easy, great experience and interface. Also delighted that it’s an ethical organisation, run by a female CEO, and actually makes profit. Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

Best banking experience.

This is the best banking experience I have had. I moved from a traditional High Street provider and my only regret is that I didn't do it sooner. Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

Best bank account out there

5
I opened my account in March 2020 when I had a cheque to deposit but couldn't with my current bank because of the lockdown. Found Starling and was able to pay the cheque in by photographing the front and back if the cheque. That was the begining of my journey with Starling and it's been plain sailing ever since. An app that is simple to use and new very useful services being developed all the time. Fantastic customer services based in the UK and being able to speak to a real person makes this the best bank account I've ever had. Reviewed on: 16th February 2022
