Starling are the future of banking

5
After years of dealing with slow service from the various high street providers. I decided to give on-line only banking a try. All I want to say is that Starling are the future. They offer everything I need in a bank, and I can control my finances in real-time. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Excellent bank, great mobile platform with very easy to navigate features Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Just a brilliant bank

5
Such an easy app to use for a brilliant bank. I don’t have to waste time looking through paper statements and dealing with inefficient call centres, Starling Bank is head and shoulders above other banks, plus they made a snow globe for us at Christmas in the app, what more could you ask for ?

The Best Bank

5
Starling banks gets it.. life is busy, we don't want stupid bureaucracy it took less than five minutes for my husband and I to open a joint account - whilst we were waiting for a taxi! and what is even better there is also a real person to talk to when we need it. Absolutely the best bank no doubt! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Just works!

5
From application to receipt of cards it's been a seamless fun experience. The ability to scan and pay in a cheque has proved vital during lockdown and i'm grateful to have Starling as my main personal bank account. Highly recommended to everybody! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

The best bank I have been with. I’ve previously held my accounts with Natwest, Halifax, First Direct etc. STARLING have blown them out of the water! I have recommended to the majority of my family and friends who have opened up accounts with them since. One word, wow! Flawless customer service, easy to navigate and perfect for on the go banking!
