What a bank should be

5
Starling is what a bank should be and more...! Easy set up, straightforward switch. However my all time favourite is instant spending notifications. These are brilliant, help you keep track of your budget and you'd know straight away if something was amiss with your card. Absolutely the best bank on the market, would definitely recommend!

It's fantastic and refreshing. Makes you realise the inadequacies of traditional banks that we've endured for years. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Could do more for us

5
Starling are a pretty perfect bank. They don't charge stupid amounts for using your arranged overdraft, nor do they rob you for using your card abroad! They are very fair and simple, though I do think they should adopt a cashback extras feature similar to banks like Halifax and Barclays as that has saved me well over £100 and would be a god send!
