Big Banks Beware

5
From account opening to day to day management of my account via the best banking app out there, Starling have showed how banking should be done. I have already, and will continue to recommend Starling to friends and family. Anyone who is disillusioned with the service they receive from their current bank, I would encourage to switch to Starling, you won’t be disappointed! Reviewed on: 15th April 2021

Simple, Easy, Efficient

5
Never looked back from my switch to Starling. Everything is so easy and convenient. They even delivered my desire for Landscape support on IPAD. Love them. Reviewed on: 15th April 2021

Amazing

5
There is simply no comparison possible between starling bank and the incumbent banks. The latter basically hate you as a customer and rely on market power. Starling is on the other hand amazing. Reviewed on: 15th April 2021

Starling makes banking easy

5
App based banks like Starling are the future of banking and I moved my personal, joint and business account to them in 2020, after feeling frustrated with HSBC for not adopting an innovative approach, with the inclusion of spending analytics. I find it incredibly useful to be able to see where I’m spending my money, along with the ‘spaces’ feature for putting money aside. Easy to set up via the app, with no lengthy forms to complete - legacy banks should be scared, because banks like Starling are the future. Reviewed on: 14th April 2021

Great customer experience

It's so well designed and intuitive. It gives you trust unlike other neobanks. Reviewed on: 14th April 2021

Simply perfect banking in style

Functional and secure banking

5
Starling Bank is far beyond any other competitor out there. Innovative security solutions, user friendly banking app, accessible and easy to use services and absolutely exceptional customer service. Have been recommending Starling Bank for my friends and will do in the future. Starling Bank sets example and not that easy achievable high standard. Reviewed on: 14th April 2021
