Best bank by far

Absolutely love the ease of use of the app, the cards are cute and setting up my account was so easy. I recommend them to everyone :) Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Love my new bank!

5
I switched to Staring Bank during the first lockdown in 2020 following a review of my finances and deciding that my bank at time were no longer fit for purpose. Starling’s customer service is second to none and it’s so impressive how you can talk to a human 24/7. The online app featuring card controls, saving spaces, round ups etc make this a fantastic app and bank for anyone who wants their bank and money to work for them. Well done Starling!

Starling have provided a quick user interface to make online/mobile banking as simple and as easy as possible. I love using them, and will continue to recommend to friends and family. Does exactly what it says on the tin, including spaces to save money for certain goals and sending money to colleagues through the quick and simple process on the app. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021
