Good bank

Been with Monzo and Starling banks Starling stands out with fee free atm abroad , free cash deposit at post office, low overdraft fees and just feel better. Reviewed on: 7th February 2020

The best customer service ever!

5
I had the most delightful experience when I and my partner were in a low signal zone and battery was running low and I had an issue with my card. The customer service person made sure that even if the calls were dropped a few times they had all the notes from the previous calls and also made it a point that they called back to make sure we had everything we needed. I have not had this service from any other service provider either a bank or an energy company for that matter. I will definitely recommend Starling to others. Reviewed on: 17th March 2021

Starling is an amazing bank, with amazing customer service. The fact that they are available 24 hours a day is such a bonus. Also, the app is incredible! Really easy to use, and very intuitive. The goals are the best feature as they allow me to move my money around so I always know what I have, and what’s going to be going out. Reviewed on: 17th March 2021
