Brilliant

The whole journey so far has been brilliant Research is something I enjoy (I know that sounds sad) and Starling appeared to be the best bet. The application process was great and clearly 21st Century thinking. So far everything works as it is supposed to and both times I have had to ask a question I have had an immediate answer. I will be opening a Euro account as soon as my bonus comes through. I thought I would be the last person to go cashless but I now can’t remember the last time I went to a cash machine. Brilliant !

Best banking app and company by far...

From opening the account to using it daily to make online transfers, make payments with either my contactless card or on my phone with the virtual card - couldn’t ask for more - it’s simply the best there is and absolutely hassle free. Reviewed on: 8th February 2020

Starling have become just another bank.

It appears that Starling are taking the opportunity to hike overdraft rates for some customers, apparently because they can under the guise of upcoming banking regulation changes. Being a loyal customer makes no difference, turning Starling into just another bank. Reviewed on: 7th February 2020
