Starling bank account is the quick and efficient banking I have been waiting for!

I opened a personal bank account with starling in 2019 as I was growing frustrated with the slow service I was getting at my previous bank. I am soooo happy with the service I have received since opening my starling account. Payments come in and out straight away, allowing me to stay on top of monthly outgoings and they have modern tools which support my daily life. For example, there are in app budgeting tools that help me to meet my goals and stay focused with them. I can’t recommend their services enough! Reviewed on: 3rd January 2020

The application process for a current account is simple and straightforward, once you’re up and running it’s so efficient and easy to use. Starling have brought banking into the 21st century, using them couldn’t be smoother, no overseas charges either. I’ve already recommended Starling to family and friends, it’s the way forward.
