Fantastic bank. STARling......

5
Hadn’t had an account for over 10 years, after losing patience with draconian high street banks ripping us off. Thought I’d try starling and they are a breath of fresh air, so easy to set up an account. Fantastic responsive app. Even with all the online scammers, I feel there security is spot on. Starling HAVE to win an award because quite simply they are the best and have transformed the way we bank Reviewed on: 1st March 2021

They just do everything I need them to

Simple and intuitive mobile experience, quick customer support Reviewed on: 1st March 2021

Easily the best digital bank

5
I've been a Starling customer for 2 years now and I can't fault them. The way I can budget (with spaces) actually makes me feel like I have MORE money than I did before. Every £1 has it's place and nothing is wasted. It's easy to turn your card on or off if you mislay it. Ordering a new card is swift. The only improvement I'd like to see would be better insights on my spending. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending them. Shaking up the banking industry by creating a modern app that's easy to use. Wish they'd existed 20 years ago! Reviewed on: 1st March 2021
