Best banking experience

So far ahead of all the high street banks, well done Reviewed on: 17th April 2021

Excellent bank

Very easy account to use and easy to set up Reviewed on: 17th April 2021

Imaginative

Great versatility, easy to use. Best banking service I have ever used. Takes banking to another level providing novel and exciting accessories to enhance and assist you with your daily finances, savings, international transactions etc.. no other financial institution has the same degree of imagination or drive to implement such exciting innovations. This is a trend setting Bank most welcome in the current demise of high street banking. Reviewed on: 17th April 2021

Easy to use & interest every month

I've loved my move to Starling. So easy to use & I love the spaces feature. Out of sight, but safe & part of the overall balance for some interest each month which is always welcome :-) Reviewed on: 17th April 2021

Just so easy.

I find everything so easy, whether it's paying in, drawing out or paying bills,it's just a few taps on the app and you're done. Using it in Europe is easy with very reasonable exchange rates. I find it an easy recommendation. Reviewed on: 17th April 2021

Easy to use

Great banking made easy with everything working through an app. Easy to set up a Euro account., and no fees. Couldn't do better anywhere else. Reviewed on: 17th April 2021

Fair, Easy, Helpful

I was worried at first swapping to a bank without any branches but in fact it is way more convenient. Any problems I've had or questions can be answered and dealt with via the app chat from the comfort of you're own home or wherever you like really! Multiple accounts within one app, easy and fair currency exchange, easy to view spending habits, easy to set different piggy banks for saving towards different things. Cash csn still be paid in via the Post Office and that again is more convenient as there is a greater chance you have a Post Office near you than a high street bank branch. All in all excellent experience and I'll never look back. Reviewed on: 17th April 2021

Simply works!

Does everything a current account should do, instantly, and no annoying hitches. Reviewed on: 17th April 2021

Better Banking

I switched after a lifetime with my previous bank, because I liked Starlings ethics and transparency. Applying and Switching were super easy, communication was clear, and the online app is extremely user friendly and you can see your spending in real time. What's not too like? Reviewed on: 17th April 2021

Starling embraced us when the usual suspects abandoned us...

Barclays, Halifax, Lloyds, Nat West, Nationwide, and Santander, have all deserted our high street. None of them deserved the loyalty of local residents when it came to making new banking arrangements. I decided to look elsewhere when it came to online banking. I have a current account with Starling that meets my needs and customer service isn't patronising. A simple combination, that older generations like myself, understand and appreciate.
