Great Account, Fair and Safe

Works without a hitch, foreign currency (euro) option is very convenient, exchange rates applied to foreign transactions are fair, and I really appreciate the care that goes into fraud protection. Reviewed on: 10th April 2024

Reply from Starling Bank Hi Keith, thanks for your review. We take fraud seriously at Starling, we're always here to protect our customers! We're happy you've enjoyed using the foreign currency too. Team Starling Response date: 11th April 2024

Definitely not a brick and mortar bank.

I migrated my main account from a traditional brick & mortar and love the ease of access; the 'pots' and 'spaces'; their regular updates and the fact that the app reliably tells me when I've spent money or earned interest. But most of all I love that I am NOT dealing with any AI Bots when I talk to support. Reviewed on: 9th April 2024

Reply from Starling Bank Hi there, thanks for your review. We're so happy to hear you're already enjoying some of our features, such as Spaces and instant notifications. You'll always be speaking to a human, no bots around here! Team Starling Response date: 9th April 2024

Starling customer of 3 years

I moved from my previous high street bank 3 years ago and I've found starling to be light years ahead on services provided. Everything is done through the app which is great, even paying cheques in is a straightforward process. Reviewed on: 6th April 2024

Perfect current UK/International and Joint account

Created my account in under 10 min. My goal was to have a current account I could as easily use in UK and in Europe while visiting family - and it's brilliant! Also was able to create a joint account with my partner and manage all this in 1 app, 1 place, 1 login. Support is great and super quick to reply anytime of day. Would 100% recommend! Reviewed on: 3rd April 2024

Reply from Starling Bank We're pleased to hear you're happy banking with us, so happy that you've also opened a Joint Account! Great stuff. We hope you both continue to enjoy banking with us. Team Starling Response date: 7th April 2024
