Banking made easy

5
From the moment I set up my Starling account, the experience has stood out as unlike any bank I've ever been with before. The user experience is so streamlined it almost feels too easy! And if you every have any queries, you can get hold of someone in a flash via their excellent app. The account itself provides some great functionality, including savings pots, and unparalleled features such as fee-free (and hassle-free) foreign currency transactions, which is what initially attracted me to them. I know this probably sounds like it was written by an employee, but I can assure you I just love this bank! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Very poor customer service

1
Was on the phone for a total of 1hr and 19 mins even before opening an account. Fir some reason my driving licence wasn't being accepted and I was told over the phone was I sure it was a real one. Of course it was a real one but all of a sudden the attitude of the advisor became very aggressive. I was put on hold for 22mins before they cut me off. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

I was told about Starling current account by a friend and have since opened an account and persuaded 4 other people to do the same. The app is far superior than any other online banks Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
