Not had any responce from Starling bank to my complaint its now over 3 weeks. I have had a responce from smartmoneypeople.com asking me to update my review, so I have - Starling Bank are still as bad as ever, don't both to reply to emails, complants anything. Reviewed on: 9th February 2021

Just clean simple Banking

Love Starling, no messing about just clean simple banking that has never let me down. Customer service always available if I ever need them (Which as been once in 5 years), insights are useful but not intrusive like other apps and there is no feature that I do not use to make the service feel bloated. Just a really good product. Reviewed on: 25th August 2024

Great for spending abroad and keeping track!

I opened a starling account to avoid taking huge amounts of cash on holiday as the current account allows me to use my debit card the same way I would if I were at home with no transaction charges and a good exchange rate. The app is great too as it instantly notifies you when payment is approved and presents all your spending history in a clear way Reviewed on: 25th July 2024

Starling was easy to switch over from my high street bank. The saving spaces and virtual cards are a great way to help manage my monies. I was nervous about no physical branch should any issues arise, however every interaction with customer services has been seamless and dealt with swiftly. Reviewed on: 9th July 2024
