Good bank

5
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

Instant debit of expenses and spaces designed to secure our money

4
Account is debited without delay to give always what us available for you to spend. Spaces are designed to secure our money by making it unavailable and safe. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

So Easy to Use and Features I didn't even know I needed

5
Starling seem to be truly customer centric. Everything is very easy and clear and they have provided features that I didn't even know I needed. I never thought I would feel emotionally connected to a bank, but Starling have won my heart. I just love them! Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Best Bank By Far

5
I've had an account for a couple of years. Starling covers nearly all my needs. I can analyse spending, save money in 'Spaces', use phone app or PC and make instant payments or use Direct Debits. It's all free, plus a little bit of interest monthly. The app is easy to navigate, and I've had no functional issues. I use Revolut for foreign payments because they are cheaper and more currencies are available. maybe something for Starling to think about. Overall though 5* A+ Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

The Best Bank ever

No red tape, just honesty. 24/7 support from the kindest team I’ve had the pleasure to speak with. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Just excellent

So user friendly and rapid in response if anything goes wrong. The old high Street banks are so far behind on technology, customer service and trust. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Everything just works, the app is so easy to use and looks great, instant notifications re just about anything on your account, an overdraft which I am in full control of, spaces let's you save for different things in different places, fee free spending while abroad including cash withdrawal. Overall it really is banking as it a should be. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021
