Good bank

Been with Monzo and Starling banks Starling stands out with fee free atm abroad , free cash deposit at post office, low overdraft fees and just feel better. Reviewed on: 7th February 2020

Hands down the best bank out there!!

Absolutely fantastic bank! The app is by far the best I have used, really easy to use and simple to gain access. I used to bank with hsbc but everything was a right pain, getting hold of someone if you need to speak to them, the app is so limited and the security access is ridiculous. But starling uses the latest technology to get over this issues. Can’t recommend them enough! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Best bank by far

Love my new bank!

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!
