Best fintech bank in the UK

I've been a Starling Bank customer for 3 years and the account has significantly contributed to a more streamlined and efficient banking experience. The instant notifications and onboard card controls are hugely important for me to assist in controlling the security of my account. I absolutely recommend Starling Bank for anyone who believes in professional progressive banking. Reviewed on: 14th April 2021

Banking at its finest!

5
I am delighted with the Starling current account; my particular favourite is the paying-in facilities like Freepost Starling and even better is the facility to pay in cheques via a photo (way ahead of other banking apps!) Reviewed on: 14th April 2021

Banking simplicity - and great if you need FX transactions

5
Been with Starling for a few years - initially for foreign transactions - but the current account app beats other mainstream bank apps I’ve experienced hands down. Reviewed on: 14th April 2021

Fantastic

5
I moved over to Starling around 3 years ago from a high street bank, and boy did I make the right decision! Only once have I had a problem and my gosh did they step up and fix it. Superb customer service, both on the phone and through their chat service within the app. I have recommended them to several friends over the time I have been with them, many have opened accounts, all have loved them. 10/10 all round Reviewed on: 14th April 2021

Flawless digital banking

5
Moved my main current account to Starling over 2 years ago and haven’t regretted a single minute. Customer service is exceptional, the app is flawless and safe and the interface is a class leader. Reviewed on: 14th April 2021
