Outstanding Banking App, amazingly quick and friendly responses from their support services, and any problems are usually resolved instantly, although minor problems have occurred. Still, definitely better than any of my prior banks. *highfive* Reviewed on: 19th November 2019

Incredible bank!

I used to bank with RBS until they decided to close my accounts and cause me a worldwind of problems. After deciding to NEVER bank with RBS or any other high street bank again, I decided to try Starling. At first, I was skeptical, but since switching to them over a year ago, I have to say that I will never look back. Things are just done SOOOOOOOOO much easier with Starling. Want to approve a transaction? 1 -click and you're done. Want to get customer support? Hit up live chat and an agent is available immediately. This is how modern day banking should be done and everyone else should take a look at Starling for inspiration on how to deliver a great product and service. Reviewed on: 18th November 2019

Been with bank now for nearly 2 years and never had a problem. Love the instant text alert so I know instantly when a transaction has been made. Things can only get better hopefully with more initiative ideas ahead. Reviewed on: 17th November 2019
