Ease of assistance

I was abroad (had an account) was stuck for cash, had an issue with access and they helped me out, customer service was exceptional - highly recommend to all Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Banking made easy !

Love the fact that I can use my account internationally without incurring crazy high transaction fees, as well as instant top-up from my other UK bank accounts with immediate notifications of credited funds and any subsequent POS transactions - all simple stuff really but what a great customer experience ! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Great bank!

When I travelled to Europe, I had no transaction charges, moreover the ease of seeing how much money I spent in £'s via notifications is fab. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Amazing Bank

Couldn't believe how easy it was to set up, every time I use my card it instantly comes up on my phone how much I've spent, where I've spent it and how much I have left, so easy to use abroad. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Great Bank

Amazing service facilitates Easy to open Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Hassle-free banking!

I was recommended Starling Bank by a friend and the process of opening the account was so easy and straightforward. It really is the way banking ought to be done. What I really like is getting the updates on spending, saving and interest payments in to my account. Another superb thing is that when I misplaced my card, I simply locked the PIN on the app, then when I unlocked the number once I found the card! I recommend Starling Bank to family and friends. Hands down the simplicity is fantastic. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
