Best bank

5
Best bank I’ve ever been with great app, fast and friendly 24 hour support and all in all a fantastic service. Reviewed on: 7th February 2021

Amazing modern Bank

5
I’ve only had a couple of reasons to contact startling since opening my account in 2018 but the service has been flawless Reviewed on: 7th February 2021

Best bank ever.

5
I absolutely love Starling and what comes with it. The fact that I can do almost everything online is so convenient. I also have a children's space feature which allows my child to spend on their very own card for a fee of £2 a month. I could be here all day to tell you about the amazing features but it is the best bank ever and I highly recommend it Reviewed on: 7th February 2021

The best UK bank*

5
I have banked with Santander, Halifax, Nationwide, IF, numerous building societies and Starling stands apart from all of these on customer experience and ease of use. Not only is registering for account and getting up and running a brilliant expérience but their fees and all round value for money are typically class leading as well. Makes all other banks look dated and cumbersome at a stroke. Reviewed on: 7th February 2021

Efficient and fast online service

5
I have not been with Starling back for long but I noticed that their online service is second to none. Reviewed on: 7th February 2021

Best Banking Decision Ever!

5
Switching to Starling has been an absolute delight. From the insanely quick account creation time, to the ability to micromanage your money, to the ever growing range of add-ons, the risky decision to switch banks was justified and then some. Great work Starling! Reviewed on: 6th February 2021

So much easier to use

5
I switched bank accounts because I wanted one that was easier to use. Everything about starling has been great. Simple to switch accounts. Easy to deposit money at the post office. Great customer service team. Reviewed on: 6th February 2021

No hassle

5
The user interface experience is super straight forward to use makes sending and receiving money easier than ever. Reviewed on: 6th February 2021

Best bank for me

5
I have started to manage my money with StarlingBank Reviewed on: 5th February 2021

Great, slick, pain- free joining processes!

5
I have joined this year having had current accounts with Lloyds and Nationwide for years. Their onboarding process easily outstrips both. Their app functionality exceeds the range of services available with Nationwide. Neither Lloyds or Nationwide offer the analysis on expenditure (my reason for joining starling, as I'd like to learn more about how I spend and what I can do to cut costs). Great experience so far and headed by a female, there's no one else I'd rather support! Reviewed on: 5th February 2021
