Simple and Efficient and Excellent Value

5
I started with Starling because I was fed up with the rip-off international transfer charge of my high street bank. It is so simple to use and, with the web interface as well a great service; who needs bricks and mortar institutions, trying to sell you things you don’t need an overcharging you in the process Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Best Bank for the modern age

5
By far the best banking experience I’ve had. App is constantly updated and improved. Security features are top notch. Chat and online help support is superb. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Never really been into banks but changed after 30 years to Starling, cannot recommend highly enough do easy to deal with, I suppose it says something that within 3 months of moving to them my wife, son, daughter & daughter in-law all moved as well. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Best Bank!!

5
I heard about your Bank from my friend, I have opened a current account 6 months ago. I enjoy every single Day of it, I am receiving notifications for everything, credit, debit, salary and it’s very secure when making a transaction or purchasing online, you need a security code. From NatWest Bank to Starling Bank I have zero regrets and encourage my friends to come to Starling Bank. ⭐️ Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Hassle-free online banking

5
Everything you need for your online banking under one roof, and with no hassle. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Great bank

5
What a breath of fresh air, banking is simple unfussy and basically does what it says on the tin. I have not had to contact starling at all since opening my account all my queries (which weren’t many) were solved by FAQs or just basically explanations on the app. So far there is not one thing I can find wrong. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Easily the best bank I've been with.

5
Having been with the typical High Street banks for 20 odd years I took the plunge with an online bank. After much delay and research I went for Starling. Now I'm over a year with them and the only regret is not doing it sooner. I literally cannot fault them and their ethical stance is one to be admired. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021
