I have been with Starling for nearly 12 months now, and frankly it is so refreshing to have a user friendly customer orientated app and service!! It was like stepping forward 50 years compared to my old bank! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Reccomend to everyone

Fantastic, easy bank to bank with. Any enquiries I've had and been dealt with within seconds of typing on the message page, it's been resolved within 5 minutes maximum, who wants to be stuck on the phone, going from option to option for 10 minutes before speaking to a human? Or having to make time to go into the bank to sort something out? Transfering money is quick and easy. App is so easy to understand and use. Got my husband and step son to join too. Would ALWAYS reccomend Starling Bank to bank with. Previously been with Barclays and thought their bank was great, but Starling has nothing on them! Starling is my best bank by far.

If Carlsberg made banks, this would be it

Finally a bank that does what WE the end users need from modern day banks, and it's all done in a clean, sleek and very professional way. True there are no branches but I don't care one iota because I haven't set foot in a traditional bank branch for years. Keep this up and you have me and my entire family for life.
