Oh So Simple!

The bank account that puts others in the shade. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Can't recommend enough

Switched about 4 months ago and wish I'd done way before. VERY user friendly, and I LOVE the personalisation. I have recommended this bank to anyone who'll listen Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Experience with Starling

Easy to create an Account Efficient Takes care of the Customers Great Bank Card and Colours on app Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

So easy, fresh and friendly way of banking

Delighted and impressed from the start. So easy to create an account and the team have always been incredibly responsive. I’ve never felt the need to have to go into a physical bank as the chat function and their response time is incredibly. Never been happiest with any other bank. And never felt as connected with any other bank - their email content is great and very helpful. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

how banking should be done

Amazing, smart, easy and free

Absolutely delightful company to have an account with, switching was easy and wonderful, customer service is grand, the app is the best I've ever used for a banking service and its a pleasure to be a customer!! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

No fuss, good information

Have been using Starling for a couple of years now. Have 3 other bank's accounts and Starling is by for the easiest to use. Full marks to Starling just need you to enable me to start paying euro bills Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

No fuss

Easy to use, some great features on their app, like checking spend with Asda, and Spaces are great! Plus I think I get more interest on my account than in my other bank savings account! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Unsurpassed customer service

I can't speak highly enough of Starling Bank's customer service. Starling Bank's customer service is nothing less than a delightful oasis in a vast wasteland of nasty, incompetent useless corporate inaccurately labelled 'customer service'. Having used Starling's customer service using both email and phone I can not speak highly enough of them. Starling Bank appears to use human beings who actually ... wait for it ... read/list, consider and reply to every aspect of what I've asked about or the issue I was currently having. Then -- apparently without the need of a 'customer service' checklist or script -- they actually addressed my issues! Gasp! They didn't pass the responsibility or blame on the customer as a default action. Amazing! All aspects of my issues were addressed and resolved as if emailing or talking with a friend. Brilliant! There will always be issues with any service or product. However I have no fear should I need assistance in the future because I know from personal experience Starling Bank will listen, think and act (even outside the box!) to answer my questions or resolve issues. I would have given them a big hug if I could. Never thought I'd say customer service was a pleasant experience. I can with Starling Bank. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Brilliant bank

Easy layout. Quick service even on customer service. Polite, friendly and all round good bank Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021
