Bank of choice

5
Recommended to several people, absolutely indispensable when travelling. Really forcing 'traditional' banks to up their game and other better services and products to customers. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Quick, efficient and friendly...

Myself and my wife have been with traditional high Street banks all our adult lives and cautious of change. With Starling, all our apprehensions vanished. Starling is, in my mind, how 21st century banking should be. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Bank info on-hand

Impressed with the way you can see: exactly how much you have in your bank, any upcoming payments and bank information such as sort code and account number in a few clicks. Really enjoying the experience! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Excellent new bank

What I take love about Starling is that there are no fees on foreign exchange transactions. I also like the app, it's so user friendly and love that it sends an immediate text to me when I make a payment. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Starling Bank is setting a new standard for usability. Gone are the days of cheque books and monthly bank statements. Hello the days when everything is done on line using smart phones. Starling Bank has embraced the technology and produce a really workable app that is user friendly meeting all their social needs. It is a bank that you take with you, and not left at home and in the past. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
