Best (online) bank

5
Opening the account was easy and quick. I love the ability to have a GDP and a EUR account in one app. The app is very convenient. It's so easy to see everything you're spending. The notifications help me keep track of what's going in and out of my bank account. Unlike some other online banks, Starling is registered with FDCS so I can be sure that my money is safe. I would probably never consider going back to a traditional high street bank. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Best bank I have ever been with

Tried many different banks, not intentionally just ended up trying more banks than most people and Starling by far is my favourite, hands down the best in nearly every way, too many things to list on this review. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

A positive experience

I have had a positive experience with Starling Bank and so happy that I’m treated like a valued customer. This is someone who has been a customer for 80% of the high street banks and has been left feeling very let down. Thank You Starling Bank. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021
