Being a member of the Armed Forces it is always good to be prepared to move, often overseas, at very short notice... ...a month into my time with Starling Bank, I was sent to Germany where I remained for 2.5 years. From there I visited the UK, Holland, France, Greece, Turkey and Cyprus. Throughout all of that, I never paid a single bank charge due and never missed a payment, thanks to the fair, friendly and innovative service that this bank provides. I have simply fallen in love with this Service and am seriously considering using them for my business banking needs when I get to a stage where it is required. Thank you so much.

So easy to switch to Starling. So easy and intuitive to set up the account. Simple example is to choose your PIN before your card arrives rather than have to visit an ATM to change the random generated one normally provided Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
