Good bank

Been with Monzo and Starling banks Starling stands out with fee free atm abroad , free cash deposit at post office, low overdraft fees and just feel better. Reviewed on: 7th February 2020

Well thought out client app

I've been using Starling for 16 months and found it a breath of fresh air. I like its smart foreign transfer service and useful catalogueing for payments. I have regularly used the cheque payment as during lockdowns I have done grocery shopping for elderly types who do not use electronic gizmos and their cheque payments reach my account pdq. Well done Starling, keep it up. Reviewed on: 31st March 2021

Opening an account

I found opening an account with Starling Bank so easy. I banked with Bradford & Bingley/Santander for over 40 years and were becoming increasingly dissatisfied with their service that I decided to switch and I wish I had done it a long time ago. Reviewed on: 31st March 2021

Perfect Service

Starling have always managed to offer a great service, where nothing is too much trouble. I have never contacted Starling without coming away feeling valued. The features the banking provides supports my financial life and had been crucial during the past year with its constantly changing demands. I'm not sure how I would have copied without the instant information provided by Starling. Reviewed on: 31st March 2021
