British banking revolutionised

Firstly I cannot sing Starlings praises enough they are EXEMPLARY at what they do. I have worked for both HSBC UK and First Direct. More relevantly I have worked for First Direct just 2 years ago and I know they pride themselves on customer service but you guys at Starling have absolutely smashed them out of the park... they are way behind, struggling to make money (isn’t that the whole point of a bank?!?) and the customer service level is wayyyyyy below Starling. Cards for example First Direct 3-5 working days, Starling 2 NORMAL days! My application took minutes, I can label my spending, saving and investing accurately and I am looking to open a business account with them this year. I have never recommended a bank to anyone as much in my life and as soon as it gets floated on the stock market (fingers crossed 2022) I will be putting my money where my mouth is and investing all spare cash into Starling bank. THANK YOU FOR CHANGING BANKING FOR THE BETTER! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Safe and easy to use

Security measures are excellent and clear to use. The app and now online platform work seamlessly Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

A Pleasant Experience!

Dealing with the High Street banks always feels as though you're doing them a favour letting them have access to your cash and putting every obstacle in your way to make it awkward for the customer!! Not Starling, I've been most impressed with their slick service and the provision of account information is always accurate and up to date. Full marks Starling - Keep it Up!! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Starling is my first bank account in UK, it took very less time to open account in starling and they have great user interface. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021
