Banking at its best

This is the best bank I've ever used, easy to use, and they are accommodating if I'm unsure about anything. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Great bank

Great service provider bank in the United Kingdom Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

User Friendly

Great experience, no waiting and therefore no frustration. Very convenient way of banking Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Effortless banking!

I joined Starling around a year ago and have been really impressed by their service. I am immediately notified of credits / debits to my account and also notified of pending direct debits that are due and whether they will take me into my overdraft. Easy to use app which allows you to control your money and their overdraft charges are reasonable, unlike most other rip-off banks who are charging c40%, which is a disgrace given the current interest rate. Well done Starling, keep up the excellent work. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

An easy switch

I’m a new customer and found the switching process really easy. The App allowed me to follow the process and I am very happy with the service I have received. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Best bank

I used to have Natwest, Barclays & HSBC branches within a mile of my home. All gone. With Starling I have found a bank which gives me everything and more. Cheques can be scanned into my account. I sat on a joint account cheque for six months until forced to travel 30 miles to my nearest Natwest to pay in, so my next move is to open a Starling joint account to avoid this. Bye bye high street banks. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Great.

Great bank. Easy to set up both my business and personal accounts. Only slight downside is they no longer allow transfers to crypto-based companies such as Coinbase. Hence the 9 stars in stead of 10. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Love, love, love it!

I love Starling and have been able to start saving for the first time in my life. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Easy to understand

After being with Barclays Bank for nearly forty years I have switched to Starling. So easy to use.A bank that understands its customers. Wish I had switched before Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Good bank
