Good bank

Been with Monzo and Starling banks Starling stands out with fee free atm abroad , free cash deposit at post office, low overdraft fees and just feel better. Reviewed on: 7th February 2020

Easy and fast

It was so easy and really quick to join Starling Bank. Their system used technology as it should be used across all industries to photograph and send application docs and voice recognition to verify. Really impressive. Easy to use when in other countries, hassle free. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Starling for best bank

Easy to use and secure. Happy with the interest rate for overdraft which is why I moved because I thought my previous bank had a cheek to charge 38 percent APR after charging 18 percent. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020
