Fantastic banking experience

5
Never thought I'd ever say this about a bank, I love this bank. It's helpful, friendly, supportive and has embraced digital technology where many traditional high street banks appear shackled and maintain the 'computer says no' attitude. I recently changed my name, no problem says Starling send a photo of your documents and do a video testimonial. Couldn't be easier and name was changed in hours. My high street bank took 8.5 weeks attending various appointments, and form filling. Took so much time out of working day and incredibly frustrating. I have about Starling whenever there's an opportunity. So refreshing to have a bank where the client is their focus. Their Comms are relevant, easy to read and friendly. This is what banking should be like. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Best thing I ever did was listen to my young adult children who recommended Starling Banking to me. Easy to set up. Easy to use. I feel my money is safe as I get instant notifications and it works well for me. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021
