Starling Bank Current account reviews (27453)

Excellent tools and customer service

Can always chat with customer service 24/7 and they always fix the problem. The budgeting tools are very helpful and they seem like they’re always trying to make my experience better Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Brilliant experience

Excellent customer service and easy to use app that feels designed for my needs Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Very impressive app!

Only joined in November last year , the process of applying and changing from Lloyds bank was effortless! Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

GREAT BANK

Great bank, I would recommend this Bank to everyone, no hassle banking. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Making banking easy

From opening an account, switching all my direct debits and standing orders, keeping track of my spending, using the banking app, everything couldn't be easier. Starling really thinks about their customers. Only wish I found them sooner! Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Modern banking that just works...

I switched to Starling after reading a piece about their unusual card design, partly because I felt all banks were the same and partly because there was something unusual about Starling. Fact — All banks are NOT the same. The Customer Service exhibited by Starling and their innovative features of Spaces, Round Up, 100% reliable banking app and upcoming payment notifications are the benchmarks to which other banks should be held. The COVID-19 connected spaces feature is amazing, and a real life saver to those in need. The kids account for U16s which is attached to a space is brilliant. Yes it costs but far better that and teaching good financial habits than the bad ones I’ve had to unlearn. Will I change banks ..... NEVER. Not for £125, or £12500 as a switching incentive!! Try Starling, you wont regret it!! Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Simplicity in an over complicated world

I have to keep pitching myself at how easy my on line starting bank is to manage. I am considering moving my main account to them. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Unique and brilliant

Unique and brilliant account, Great customer service, love the additional features I do not get from High Street banks which really helped me manage my money! Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

If Carlsberg did bank accounts!

Not been with Starling for long but so far, they are light years better than my previous Lloyd's bank account, really love the spaces for saving up for that special something or other, the only thing I need to make it perfect is to get a Huawei pay app.... Can't rate them highly enough... Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Everything at fingertips

A very great experience, everything is smooth and easy. Loves it! Reviewed on: 18th February 2021
