Review of the Starling Bank, Current Account:

Lack of support from the Post Officce.

Since I started using Starling Bank. any problems I have had have been overcome extremely quickly, One problem that always niggles is that if the cash machine is out of order the Post Office won't help you but they will help anyone from any other bank. Reviewed on: 12th October 2024

Reply from Starling Bank Glad you've had a good experience overall. Sorry the Post Office hasn't been the same. You should be able to take out a maximum of £300 at the Post. However, not all Post Offices will be able to do this all the time due to the amount of cash held. Response date: 22nd October 2024
