Where has this type of bank been All my LIFE !!

Fantastic, mobile banking app.. excellent service, excellent product.. I only wish I had heard about it year's ago.. I tell everyone who will listen what an amazing bank it is.. I wish it did it's own savings accounts, rather than investment platforms.. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

So impressed

As my old bank gets rid of their current account customers and reviewing all my future banking options, Starling Bank totally impressed me with the simplicity and security of a completely digital bank. I have been so impressed with all the features and Starling Bank has inspired me with complete confidence for my financial future. Thank you. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Brilliant

Excellent! Everything you need in the app. Seamless and uncomplicated. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Oh so easy.

I'm so glad I made the switch from a traditional bank to Starling, you have everything at you fingertips when controlling your money, the app is smooth and flows well, and everything is so easy and fast. Highly recommend. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Excellent online bank

Easy process to open account, easy to use app. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Fantastic Online Bank

Everything in their brilliant app is easy to understand and use. Excellent functions include saving spaces to ring fence savings and an incredible array of card controls. I actually read their emails, which are always interesting and useful compared to comms from the other banks I use. I don’t feel that anything is lacking from the fact that Starling do not have branches. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Excellent App and Excellent Services. Customer Support is always helpful.

I have been using Starling for 7 months now and the experience has been phenomenal from the day I started. Any issues I had were dealt with promptly. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Slick, professional banking with an eye for detail

I’ve banked with Starling for several years. They provide an excellent service, with an eye for good design, and an impressive degree of transparency (what other bank has a podcast series about the software development behind their services?). On the rare occasions when I’ve needed to speak with a person, they’ve been knowledgeable, friendly and efficient - regardless of the time of day or night. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

All round amazing Bank!

The customer service is absolutely amazing, they're so helpful and considerate. The features in the app are all straight forward to use and the financial data Starling provides me is presented in a digestible manner. The fact that with each referral they plant a tree is also a great bonus. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021
