Great instant updates, detaile spending breakdown & customer Service

I was so lucky to have chosen Statling when these new banks were discussed on radio. Any early teething problems caused by supermarkets were fixed quickly and I was kept informed. Never had any real problems. Any queries were answered quickly. Love all the instant account updates and breakdowns and specs. Keeps me fully up to date with my finances. Can’t fault them and love their whole outlook. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Miles above the competition

5
Starling are miles above any competition! Beautifully clear, very helpful tools. More like a “best friend” style than a “disapproving teacher” ....I am actually delighted with this Bank. 10/10. And as for the previous bank I’ve been with for the past fifteen years. I am glad and so relieved to have this choice, at last - I choose Starling. I am in the process of transferring everything. I think Starling are pretty perfect for a Bank. Pay in and take out cash at the post office, saving pots you can edit to your hearts content, a lovely turquoise, clear-to-read bank card - I don’t need to put my specs on! Elegant, fast, and appears extremely well thought out. Been with them approx two months, would recommend to everyone!!! Just stunning, hope they win, they absolutely deserve it.

People friendly bank

They just make everything seem so simple. My old bank, who I’d been with for over 20 years, always felt that the customers were the last things on their mind. Starling genuinely feels like we matter, which is a nice change. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021
