I love it, switched over because I wanted a more ethical bank that was transparent and actually operated in the 21st century and I got everything I wanted and more! Reviewed on: 20th January 2020

Much more better experience than a traditional bank

5
Been a customer of the company pretty much when it started out. End of last year decided that the traditional banks wasn’t offering the same high quality as Starling so made them my main bank and got rid of the rest. No regrets. Reviewed on: 20th January 2020

the Most customer focused & forward thinking bank

I originally opened an account with Starling as I travel the world frequently and was severely let down whilst travelling by both my personal and business banks. So far Starling have surpassed my expectations and I am now using them as my regular current account, at home and whilst away. The user-friendly interface is a huge benefit of Starling, plus the savings services available e.g. round-up and the easy way to track spending. Of course the benefits to a traveller are invaluable such as push notifications rather than SMS to verify transactions. SMS verifications are useless when you are using a local SIM card of your current destination. The no-fees transactions when abroad put Starling head and shoulders above their competitors. Starling is a bank that is giving the customer of today what they are looking for. The world is becoming a smaller place and Starling is providing a much needed service to enable it. I’m delighted to have discovered them and have been recommending them to friends and family. Reviewed on: 20th January 2020
