Really impressed with how quick it was to set up the account and how quickly my card came. The app is just superb showing everything that you need, just can't wait until you can pay in cheques using your camera phone Reviewed on: 3rd January 2020

Best bank. That's it.

Been with starling since the beginning, joined because they were the first "real" challenger bank while monzo only had prepaid cards. But I stayed because of the great service and the speed with which they add new features and respond to customer ideas. For a bank that doesn't have branches their partnership with the post office is ingenious. Don't think there's anything I couldn't do with starling. Reviewed on: 3rd January 2020

Straightforward, friendly bank

A no-nonsense, straightforward, friendly bank. They gave me a personal account when none of the big banks would. Reviewed on: 3rd January 2020

Love my new account!

5
I was a little wary of changing my bank to one that’s not on the high street BUT I’ve had no issues with them at all. They have 24/7 help available. They don’t charge me extra fees for purchases made in different currencies. I’ve also been able to open a free business account for my small start up business. I’d highly recommend them to anyone!
