Love it

Old banks suck! Good luck playing catch-up to Starling :) Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Refreshingly Supportive

So easy to deal with. Why can’t other banks be like this Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Banking with the times

Refreshing to use a bank putting customers first and using the latest technology to provide the best service (not withholding Apple Pay for years like Barclays because they think they know best) Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Amazing customer service!

Customer service is outstanding! I had problems using my card abroad last year and everything was sorted out within a few minutes. Love Starling bank Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Excellent and easy

Easy to set up, interest on balance, ability to set up goals and have bills rounded up to achieve them, fee free spending in other countries, choose PIN before card arrives, disable card using your phone and instant notifications to your phone. Brilliant, for me Starling are leaving the big names behind in their dust. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Easy, innovative and pays interest

Easy to set up and use Very innovative products and savings Pays interest on funds Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Amazing

Brilliant, feel completely in control of my money with real time spending notifications and request money from family and friends when splitting bills Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Just simply the best, and most convenient bank around

Great bank, excellent app and always a very quick and efficient service when needed. Would recommend to everyone, and in fact I already have. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Excellent

Perfect bank for everyday use, instant notifications, useful app and responsive customer service. Even better when you want to use abroad! Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

A no brainer

An almost perfect exchange rate abroad, unlimited use. What more can you ask for? Reviewed on: 9th February 2019
