Honestly I’ve never been with a bank that’s so easy to deal with, granted I’ve only had to call a couple of times but each time was easy, no issues and they couldn’t do enough on the other end of the phone. The app is diaper simple too. Reviewed on: 27th March 2021

This bank is No 1 for me. Efficient, competent with great Customer Service. Reviewed on: 27th March 2021

Convert to digital banking

I opened a Starling account last year in addition to a traditional current account that I hold. I love it as it is so easy to use, and I'm gradually using more of the banks features such as spaces and especially not having to go into a branch just to pay in a cheque. I can envisage me ditching normal banking altogether in the not too distant future. Reviewed on: 27th March 2021

Banking made it so simple

5
Switched from HSBC to Starling Bank after 16yrs with HSBC where I felt never been considered as long time costumer. Yes I am not earning ££££££'s but I feel Starling made my banking so easy and so simple Plus customer service is really great, quick response and I feel secure Reviewed on: 27th March 2021
