Puts the Customer First

I immediately know what is going on with my account which has never been the case with traditional banks. This one feature alone makes me feel like I can trust Starling more. Having new features that are really useful just rolled out on a regular basis is the icing on the cake! Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Awesome

A bank which has truly been designed for the 21st century! Very easy to use and manage my money, total transparency in every aspect of money management. First class service and app. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Handy. Smart. No fuss.

App works well. Great for peace of mind to be able to freeze card via the smartphone if necessary. Most transactions are instantly visible - no time wasted checking that payments have gone through etc. Starling seem to be focused on the business of banking and don't inundate customers with marketing emails etc. I cannot comment on chat function or other direct customer service features because I have had no cause to use them. A trouble-free two years! Reviewed on: 17th January 2022
