WOW ! WHAT AN AMAZING BANK ACCOUNT ! :)

5
I opened an account with Starling due to suspicious activity with my previous Coop bank account. The Starling app is absolutely amazing ! I can lock and unlock my whole account e.g. The use of : my debit card, online and Atm cash withdrawals, contactless payments. It lets me know when a payment has been taken. The balance is in real time !! You know exactly how much is available, it lists all the payments taken :- into groups groceries, bills and payments in. 110/100 I am very impressed, peace of mind knowing when you lock your account no one can use it - Thumbs up from me :) The Future of banking.

Simple, yet powerful

My two years with Starling has been flawless. I ditched my high street bank when I joined and haven’t looked back. Others try to charge what Starling offers by default. Won’t be switching away any time soon! Reviewed on: 17th February 2021

Starling flies high

A new bank for a new generation.

5
Since the moment I downloaded the Starling App I have continually been impressed with Starling. You can freeze your debit card, organise your finances and set money aside into a savings pot. These are things UK banks are just starting to offer. Help is almost instant for when you need it and everything works very smoothly indeed. Other things that have been introduced are business accounts and joint accounts and these are just a few of the implementations over the last couple of years. I have stopped using HSBC and I’ll never go back to the old, boring and stuffy traditional UK banks. Starling is fantastic. Reviewed on: 17th February 2021
