Fantastic bank

Customer service is amazing and not had a problem since I joined them a few years ago Reviewed on: 3rd January 2020

Easy to set up and easy to use!

This was by far the easiest account I have ever set up! It’s easy to use and gives notifications as soon as you spend. I can’t recommend this bank enough. It may not have the same offerings as the bigger banks but for once it has the right idea - keep it simple. Reviewed on: 3rd January 2020

Brilliantly practical and easy banking

Moved to Starling account recently and it has changed my life. Easy to use mobile application provides a complete audit trail of all my spending home and abroad. Best exchange rates I have ever been able to obtain from any travel bureau. Never have to worry about obtaining local currency when travelling abroad. Fantastic experience.
