Whats not to like

My title says it all, a very responsive and responsible bank, which provides me with confidence my money is being managed effectively. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Straightforward excellence

5
I left my previous Bank after over 20 years not because I was dissatisfied with service but because their ethical position was inconsistent with what I believe to be important. But once I moved I realised how much better a bank can be. The first time I shared a bill with a friend I was amazed how simple it was. I love that I can easily see my spending and analyse it. Reminders are useful and messages pertinent. And they aren't constantly trying to sell me things I don't want. Very glad I switched. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Simple and instant

5
Great to see everything instantly. Really good customer service. The only thing that has ever not worked is the nearby payment which failed to recognise two accounts on my wi-fi. No real convenience as payment made by internet banking which is almost as easy. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

How Banking should look like in the 21st century !

5
Starling Bank such a leader in the banking sector and other banks should follow them. Over the years I tried most of the Uk's bank but so far Starling is the best. I hope they will keep it up. Quite like their emails about the new updates because at least we have a bit more insight what's been changed. The money pots are very practical feature as well. One little thing that they could take this to the extra mile if they would create an automatic budgeter so let's say on the 1st of every month the app would leave on the main account a set amount and the rest of them would go straight to the savings :) Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Banking Perfection

5
Every aspect of banking with Starling is easy. From application to the app, to cashing cheques (who knew a bank could do it with a photograph!!) to opening an account for my daughter. It’s a PLEASURE to bank with them as as soon as I can get out of the evil clutches of Barclays, Starling will have my business accounts too. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022
