Amazing app and attendant services. Had used the "Nasty" bank's app and it was so bad I had almost given up. Hooray for Starling! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

When a murmur kills a murder

5
Seamless, effortless, and strange to have a smile on my face when talking about a bank. Fantastic customer support (albeit, on had to contact them once, which could also be construed as a ‘good thing’). Where I view most other banking constitutions to be the Crows, carry on innovating Starling. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Extremely good bank! Quick, easy and helpful!

Everything about this bank is better that the high street banks! Fast responses, very easy to use, would never change back! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

No-nonsense

Have only praise for this company, I joined early last year and you can tell by their informative statements and competitive interest rates , there going in the right direction....Up ! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Progressive Digital Bank

Told in minutes what's going in or out of your account in quality quality quality Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Straightforward, decent and honest

5
Unlike other challenger banks Starling has not used (short term) gimmicks or teasers to gain subscribers, then move the goalposts once you're onboard. Nor do they try and jam you with 3rd party product under the premise that they're opening your eyes (to the obvious)... The UI is clean, easy to use and intuitive and customer service always helpful when required. Keep up the good work Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
