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

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

A fresh banking experience

I saw an advertisement for Starling Bank on Sunday, read up about them on Monday morning, completed the application process Monday evening and had my new debit card by Wednesday morning. All done without stress or worry. The app is clear and easy to use. Paying cash in over the Post Office counter is effortless. Applying to open a current account at 3 of the “big banks” over the years was an awful time consuming ordeal, one in which I was made to feel that the bank was doing me a massive favour and charging me for the privilege. Well done Starling Bank. I wish you every success. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019
