Starling leads & others try to catch up.

Both myself & my wife have been Starling customers since 2018, with both of us having individual & joint accounts, plus the Euro account extension. As we are both retired / over 65 we are in an age group that could be considered cautious of new technology, and no doubt constitutes a very small percentage of Starling customers, yet we have found the app comprehensive & easy to use both in the UK & abroad & in less common currencies. As neither of us have had any issues or concerns with any aspect of the Starling offering (which could not be said for our experiences with 'mainstream' institutions) it is only fair to give Starling full marks for what they do & the service they provide. With interest as well!! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Great service

Fastest notifications when I make payments and coolest design of the mobile app. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
