5 (Star)ling rating

Starling make is a great bank for those who are looking for a mix between modern and traditional banking. Starling has a lovely and easy to use banking app. Once you sent up an account with them, you receive a physical debit card free of charge. I have been using Starling for over 7 months and I experienced helpful and professional support from banking staff. The Starling app has many great features include saving areas, budgeting resources and shopping bonuses. Starling is a safe and reliable service meant for all. Starling puts the star in 5-star service. Reviewed on: 10th April 2024

Great Account, Fair and Safe

Works without a hitch, foreign currency (euro) option is very convenient, exchange rates applied to foreign transactions are fair, and I really appreciate the care that goes into fraud protection. Reviewed on: 10th April 2024

Reply from Starling Bank Hi Keith, thanks for your review. We take fraud seriously at Starling, we're always here to protect our customers! We're happy you've enjoyed using the foreign currency too. Team Starling Response date: 11th April 2024

Definitely not a brick and mortar bank.

I migrated my main account from a traditional brick & mortar and love the ease of access; the 'pots' and 'spaces'; their regular updates and the fact that the app reliably tells me when I've spent money or earned interest. But most of all I love that I am NOT dealing with any AI Bots when I talk to support. Reviewed on: 9th April 2024

Reply from Starling Bank Hi there, thanks for your review. We're so happy to hear you're already enjoying some of our features, such as Spaces and instant notifications. You'll always be speaking to a human, no bots around here! Team Starling Response date: 9th April 2024
