Brilliant experience, so far. All on line and very easy, no fuss. I even like the bank card, the speed of despatch and the envelope it was sent out in! Very clear way of keeping a check on spending. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Ease of set up is exceptional. Also, the customer service is so helpful and swift..the ridiculous telephone menu option so commonplace now is gone. That in itself is huge bonus. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Wish I had moved sooner.

I was getting tired of having a current account that charged me for things I didn’t use. I was also tired of the high street banks and how they couldn’t offer me a simple account. Then I found out about starling. Everything in one place. Switching my account over was so simple. Setting up a savings pot was so easy without having to open a new account and transfers and payments are notified to me. It’s just made my life a little easier. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Excellent Bank
