Extraordinary. I am an ex senior manager with Barclays Bank and have been treated like dirt to the point of I have been trying to get 99% of my personal accounts and share dealing accounts transferred to StaRling Bank and because my account has been involved in fraudulent transactions have blocked all my accounts including Interactive share dealing one. In addition reported it to the police who called at my house to arrest me. Unbelievably In going into the local bank of Scotland branch three days ago the manager was abusive for no reason except they had also blocked all my accounts and were refusing to allow me any withdrawals. I called in at 11am and at 12,15 the police walked into the bank and said if I did not leave the bank I would be arrested. I have a remarkable capacity in dealing with dealing with these situations as I used to teach the skills as a business consultant.it took me until 13,15 hrs to be paid and they’ only released the balances on my accounts on condition that they were all closed which I didn’t want to do having been a customer for 57 years with a turnover of millions. I was informed by the police that I was debarred from entering the premises again and if I tried to would be arrested. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Good app, good features, and excellent customer service each time I needed them. The only issue I can find is Starling not allowing to pick other card designs. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
