How banking should be...

Ask a hundred people if they like their back and 90 will probably say no. I jag’s several accounts with different banks and all they do is write to letters telling you they’re savings interest is going down and their overdrafts are going up! Most banks are rip off’s... however Starling is the exception... they are shot no fuss and as much technology that they can have to make it easy to manage your own money! Customer services is great. In a world that the competition is so bad it’s probably not hard to beat the rest but please don’t ever get complacent Starling... stay ahead of the rest and keep listening to tour customers needs...

I've used lots of banks (and worked for two of them) and Starling is a breath of fresh air. Took me just a few minutes to set up an account and every step since then has been simplicity itself. And they're not going to be profiteering from the overdraft rate increase in April. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Simple, intuitive, fun....!

Starling Bank has been a breath of fresh air. Our joint account (and two individual accounts) has eased our money management, has got us communicating more effectively about financial priorities and goals, and we really enjoy the Starling Bank experience! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
