Really good alternative to traditional High Street Banks

After choosing Starling over traditional high street banks I have come to totally love my decision. I am amazed and thankful to marketing/social media team for their lovely gifts to my family after entering a promotion but we were unsuccessful. The gifts literally delivered to my door even though I didn't win. Wow just wow family so excited. The app allows you track your spending, it's the fast when transferring between banks and abroad and you can use the card internationally with no issues. Lost your card no problem, you can lock/unlock your card from the app instantly and continue to use Google pay. Not only are they provide prompt service when you have an issue via their social media accounts and other normal contact mediums, you will soon realise that you don't even have to use your telephone. E.g. I changed my phone forgot password, recorded message on the app as directed, within 1 1/2 hours I had access to my app again. Note I still had access using my card and Google Pay during all of this. They have killer promotions and I think I have found the last bank I will ever bank with. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Banking made simple

Excellent communication and security fixtures Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Very easy to operate

I have transferred my account to this bank and I have been pleased I did. Everything is easy to understand and the account is simple to operate plus there are no fees when using it abroad!! Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

The Best Bank!

I was with Barclays, but I thought I’d get another bank card for savings. I tried Starling. This is now my main bank account, as I love it so much. I’d recommend it to anyone. It’s so organised and it’s goal sections really help you to organise your savings and stay motivated! No other bank like it. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Great app and great customer service

The app has everything I need, but on the few times I've had questions I have received quick and helpful support through the chat functionality in the app. Much better than any bank I've been with previously. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Awesome

Transparency, Fast and Reliable Reviewed on: 24th January 2020
