Simple and easy

From my initial contact to open an account, my first online account experience, I found Starling straight forward. As an 'older' customer any concerns were swiftly dismissed, it was easy, simple and clear, to setup and operate my account. Getting in touch with a person, which for me has only been a few times, has been easy. During this unusual time my experience has continued to be excellent. Reviewed on: 30th March 2021
