Dead wood

They stopped developing and moving on. Also, I will take decision my self when and how much to invest into cryptocurrencies. Reviewed on: 26th January 2023

Best Bank I have ever had the pleasure of being a part of

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

Best British Bank

Starling is simply the best challenger bank. Reviewed on: 18th 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
