Ease and efficiency!

Switched from one of the big 4 to Starling and haven’t look back! Love them Reviewed on: 25th January 2020

Great innovative bank

Starling bank are head and shoulders above the rest. The gap between Starling and legacy banks has become so glaringly obvious. Miles ahead of the competition. Reviewed on: 25th January 2020

Great all-round bank

Starling accounts are very easy to use and love the real time notifications. A few feathers from other banks would be better but I understand these are coming soon... cant wait. Customer service team are quick to responde . Reviewed on: 25th January 2020

Best bank

App experience is so much better than your typical high street bank offerings. Makes viewing money simple and easy and bring able to do this at a glance is a powerful tool. Reviewed on: 25th January 2020

Banking like it used to be.

A bank that puts customers before profits gets my vote every time. Focus on people not profit. Reviewed on: 25th January 2020

Best Bank Ever!

You simply can’t go wrong if you are with the Starling Bank. Every other bank is now trying hard to copy them and try to win their customers back but it’s too late. Every bank that I have been with the high street ones they have screwed me over. Reviewed on: 25th January 2020

Number 1

Having transferred my high street bank to online, starling bank has never failed me. From 24/7 help desk for any enquiries you need to simple transactions I can say they are the best. I have been with them for over a year and when anybody is looking at online bank accounts I always mention them. Keep up the good work Starling Reviewed on: 25th January 2020

Amazing

I've never been excited about banks. It's just something you need in your life and can't really avoid it. When challenger banks started to be more popular, I was reluctant at first. But since I travelled quite a lot and my old bank charges quite a lot, I've opened a Starling account as a secondary account to use when travelling. I've had it for a year or so when I've gone on a longer holiday and used Starling through that. After that holiday I switched over fully as the experience was so much better than my old bank! I didn't have to guess anymore about my spending and wait days for it to show on my account. Everything is real time, my spending data is presented visually and I just have a way better insight into how I use my money. Plus, customer service is quick considering they don't have a physical branch and so much easier as I can just message them. No wait in line or on the phone for ages. For me, this is how banking should be and it made me excited about banking which I never was before. Reviewed on: 25th January 2020
