Fantastic User Experience

5
Starling Bank is fantastic, I can't recommend them any more. We initially opened an account to use while travelling due to the fantastic rates when using your card abroad. Since opened a current account and also a joint account with my partner. This was the easiest finance application I have ever done, took only a couple of minutes however I still felt that my security was of top concern. Also great interest rates for savings!

Very easy and safe to use

Firstly it the registration was thorough but straight forward and fast. It offered the possibility of a linked Euro account which was one of the main factors choosing Starling. The Fast transfer feature works well resulting in almost instant transfers. Overall a very easy and comprehensive current account for day to day banking. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Current Account

I set this account up through an app. Couldn’t believe how quick and simple the whole process was. Once account verified and approved I requested a card. When. Received it is activated on the app, asked for a pin reminder, which again is shown via the app. Very simple process all round, would highly recommend. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020
