Simply Brilliant and effective

I was skeptical originally but signed up to try this bank. Since then I have been blown away by their efficiency and responsiveness. Its a fantastic bank and works brilliantly without having any physial branches. The alerts on spending is a great touch and works instantly. I woudl recommend this bank to anyone who is aprofessional and wishes for an effercitve and efficient bank to facilitate their bsuiness or personal affairs. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

We live in a world were technology is continually evolving. Many of the main household high street banks simply are not technically advanced enough for today’s market. Here is the second problem, High Street banks what are they? Many provincial towns simply don’t have any. So why put up with an bank with outdated technology that you can’t access quickly and does not offer a personal service? With Starling I can speak to my bank 24hrs a day, 7 days a week 365 days a year. Ok I don’t get face to face interactions anymore, but I do still get a well informed personal service unlike my former bank. I can review my account, send money instantly to anywhere quickly, simply and free of charge. All from an easy to use phone APP. I have access to Apple And Android Pay, something my last bank could not even offer!! I can save money ever time I spend on every transaction by rounding my spend up to the nearest £1 and automatically saving a little for the things that can cost a lot. It does not sound much but it quickly adds up. Plus I have all the functions of the old high street banks and did I say I get interest on the money I have in my current account every month?? So why be so yesterday? Be tomorrow with Starling! Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Fantastic

It's so refreshing to be with a bank that's so flexible. It keeps of track of what we spend on certain items such as eating out, bills and totals that all up. But we can also see what we spend and where. I would highly recommend Starling to anyone. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Banking as it should be

5
I was recommended by a friend and I’m so glad they did. This feels like how banking should be in 2020. No onerous manual paperwork, clear communications throughout the switching process. Hassle free and thoroughly modern! Not had to receive a letter or speak to anyone yet. Any communications was handled brilliantly by the messaging app. It’s been a revelation to see my spending shown in such an easy to digest way. Some insights were a little surprising! It’s also really easy to save money with the multiplier function. Overall I’m super impressed. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020
