Dead wood

They stopped developing and moving on. Also, I will take decision my self when and how much to invest into cryptocurrencies. Reviewed on: 26th January 2023

Absolutely brilliant

They remind me a day before direct debits come out which is so handy as i always forget. They also update me instantly when money leaves my account. I have a notification from the bank before i even receive my receipt from a shop. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Good service

Easy to use app, excellent timely customer service. I recommend it to others in a regular basis! Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Starling to the rescue

I was with Think Money, but they charge 16 pounds approx a month, I thought my low credit score would stop me moving, but NO Zthey welcomed me. So right away 16 pounds more to spend, that feeds me and my son for 3 days....a big difference. I have a savings account which rounds up to nearest pound every time I spend , that goes into savings, and I have a Bill's account. Sorted thank you Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Customer service

24/7 happy staff wanting to help

It has all been great. Easy to open, four to five minutes unlike the hour sat in a high street bank branch. Happy staff always friendly and able to help. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Future of banking at its best

Excellent, Excellent, Excellent. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

So Glad I Switched to Starling!

Having been with Santander for many years, I was looking for a new bank that was geared to online banking, something simple that worked - I am so glad I found Starling! The opening procedure was simple, the notifications are fab and timely, I LOVE. the “goals” feature where I can put money aside and it takes it off my available, but it’s still there if I need it. I love my Starling account, I actually enjoy online banking now!! Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Best Bank

Very easy to use with instant notification. Highly recommended to all. Definitely the best bank in the UK and around the world. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Simple no fuss Banking

Who needs a high street Bank?...Free cash deposits at any Post Office, even easier to withdraw or transfer and interest on everything!! Reviewed on: 24th January 2020
