Awesome!

5
A completely amazing banking experience that not only provided me banking services but helped me get that so needed proof of address which is difficult to obtain in certain circumstances. All my respect for this company, I highly recommended it to anybody really! I have been receiving my salary for 3 months already with them, never never had an issue, everything is perfect and I love them! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Great Bank Great Product

I was one of the first customers to join Starling Bank. The customer service has been outstanding and issues (not caused by starling rather payments being taken twice by merchant) have been dealt with efficiently. Living between Greece and the UK I make full use of the currency payment service and have found exchange rates to be competitive with funds arriving at the destination in good time. I have recommended Starling to several people and know if at least 5 people that have opened an account as a result. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

A breath of fresh air for banking

Joined starling as they offer a joint euro/gbp account. A faultless switch. I love the payment alerts through the app, the visualisation of the app and the fact I get paid my salary a day early. I’m really glad i made the switch. I hope the popular success does retract from their excellent customer service. I would however like a code generator for security verification for when one doesn’t have cell coverage Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Control of my own finances has never been easier

There are so many useful features with a Starling Account. From quickly and easily being able to see my account balance to opening multiple saving accounts to temporarily being able to freeze my own card. Even the notifications on my wearable devices that come to me even before the retailer sees the “transaction approved” message. It’s been a delight to switch to this bank and I’ve never looked back.
