Starling is incredible

Ive had a starling account for a couple of years and took a leap of faith this year by switching to them as my primary current account.

Excellent online based bank account. Reviewed on: 5th November 2019

Faultless customer service

I opened an account with starling not thinking it would run smoothly. I expected to have the account as a secondary one to run alongside my main account but it now is my main account. Asked with my proselytising I’ve got family and friends to sign up too! Reviewed on: 5th November 2019

Banking made easy

This back has shifted my expectations on what a bank should be. Instant notifications and a great app. I've not had to contact customer services for a long time because everything is so easy. However if I need to then I can do it without leaving the app. Simply fantastic Reviewed on: 5th November 2019

Changed the way I bank

I love Starling - it's so easy to manage my money and I love being able to budget by putting money aside into savings goals. They're always adding new features as well like euro accounts and online banking which is great. The customer service is also very helpful and available 24/7 which is reassuring.
