Absolutely no complaints

Finally closed my Barclays account that I have had since the mid-90s. In order to close it I had to go in to the nearest branch to change my address (we in the middle of last year). This took a good long wait! With Starling everything is remote. I particularly like the security surrounding large payments that I have made and the really swift response on those occasions. My wife-to-be opened her Starling account yesterday. Reviewed on: 21st January 2022

Best bank ever

Love this bank have been with them about 18 months you do everything on there app. Like putting a hold on your account if you have lost your car I did that today. You can call 24/7 and speak to a real person that speaks excellent English if you can’t solve the problem yourself on the app. I has spaces as well so you can put you bill money into it and all your direct debit’s for out of the space. This helps you to know what money you have left every month after your bills. 100% would recommend Starling to anyone. Reviewed on: 21st January 2022
