Great Bank

5
I needed a bank where I could have a joint account with my daughter. Starling enabled this facility, she is now able to buy train tickets and lunch etc when attending college. Now that she's driving she can go to the shops on my behalf and charge it to my account. It's so useful, and works so well I could do with a second card for my other daughter. I have now transferred my business account to Starling Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Always thinking about the customer

5
I've been so impressed by Starling since I first opened an account. Everything works as, and better than I'd expect. They seem to think of things I need before I realise I need them. I had to open an account with a more traditional bank recently and it was so painful....it just reinforces the work Starling are doing to make banking easy and intuitive. I'm a huge fan.
