Quick, easy to use and great customer service

5
Quick to set-up, easy to use and great customer service - everything that a bank should be! Reviewed on: 20th January 2021

Totally happy with this account

5
I've had my current account as an "extra" for several years but it is now my main current account. The features are so user friendly and intuitive as to make high street banks almost obsolete. Reviewed on: 20th January 2021

Ease of use

5
This is by far the best bank account. Simple online banking and easy ways to encourage saving. On the occasions I’ve had to speak to customer services they are leaps and bounds above the rest. Definitely recommend Reviewed on: 20th January 2021

The Trustworthy Banking Family that is Starling

5
Every just works and works FAST! The transactions alert in record time, as they have proper modern scaled architecture, they respond to any comms/questions almost immediately. I just feel part of a family of people who truly wants to look after me and my money. I know we cannot travel currently but the travel benefits are fab, even down to the securely disabling the mag stripe functionality only except when you need it. I use to get looks in the US when they swiped, it was refused, I enabled it in my app, they tried again and it immediately worked - fast and secure! Reviewed on: 20th January 2021

Using the app is a breeze

5
Exceptional sign-on process, and everything just works. They are always adding new features. Flawless. Reviewed on: 20th January 2021

Excellent insights

5
Love the features that makes it more visible what I spent on. What I want to spend on, and literally all the info ever need is in the app. Tech all the way, you got it! Reviewed on: 19th January 2021

Smooth experience

5
Love using Starling's app - it's easy to use and has all important features at hand without overwhelming me with unnecessary jargon and trying to sell me add-on items like home insurance. The instant notifications are what I would expect from all banks in 2021 - keep it up. Reviewed on: 19th January 2021

Great Account!

5
Easy to use, only had to reach out to CS once and they were super quick, kind and knowledgeable! Reviewed on: 19th January 2021
