I have been a Starling customer for a few years and have found every aspect very user friendly and speedy. From applying for the account to managing my money. Such a good service that I am embarking on a new career working as a sole trader and chosen Starling for my business account. Highly recommend to everyone! Reviewed on: 8th April 2021

Practical Banking

If you wrote a wish list for a bank account Starling would fulfill most of the requirements. The feature which drew me in originally was being able to use my card abroad without fees, but all the other benefits have gone on to make this the best current account I have operated.

Banking done Right!

Brilliant

5
Brilliant. The security is great, multilayer and not to complicated or restrictive. The app is well laid out, it's easy to see what's going on. The notifications are great, no more checking the bank as the app let's you know what's going on. Card controls are great. Customer service where quick to answer my questions as well. Took 1 and half working days get the account setup, and the bank cards can 2 days later. Just brilliant. Reviewed on: 7th April 2021
