Fraud transaction dealt with brilliantly

After experiencing a fraudulent transaction for a small sum of money, I thought it would be more hassle than it was worth. But, after using the in-app directions and speaking to a real human on the phone, the matter was dealt with swiftly and the money was back in my account within 3-4 working days! Happy days.

Easy to use app and foreign spending

Starling's app is very easy to use, gives notifications of incoming payments and expenditure, allows me to make payments in foreign currency without additional charges, and helps me save through its use of spaces and rounding up payments for savings. Reviewed on: 10th March 2021

Beam me up scotty

A 21st century Bank, for the 21st century. If one Bank has a horse, then I just jumped off that, and landed on a rocket. That's the difference in my banking experience. Reviewed on: 10th March 2021

At the forefront of simple, easy online banking
