The devil is in the detail!

Have a second card topped up with £200 to lend to friends and family so that they can help out with shopping. It's been really useful during lockdown. A great idea! Reviewed on: 30th March 2021

Amazing

5
Switched to starling as was extremely unhappy with my high street bank. The application was quick and easy, did not have to queue up or send anything in. Since then the customer service has been outstanding. Added bonus is the ability to open a Euro account. Euro account and UK account are in one too, so no need to take several cards when abroad. Moving on to the phone/tablet app, it is easy to use and amazing features. Like the "pay nearby" feature when transferring money to another starling customer. Amazing keep going starling.

Straightforward and convenient

5
Starling makes it to manage my money and instant real time updates on spending are extremely useful. Would never go back to a ‘conventional’ bank as there’s not really a need to. I would recommend starling to anyone looking for a hassle-free, convenient banking experience. Reviewed on: 30th March 2021

Easy to open a new account from home

5
I have been an HSBC bank customer for over 40 years and tried to open a second joint account. After trying to call and chat, waiting for ages, they were unable to help me and no-one really seemed interested. So I heard about Starling Bank and opened an account within a couple of hours, and all from home. So far, I am loving the banking experience with Starling. Reviewed on: 30th March 2021
