Reliable, easy, great service bank

Been with Starling since their set up and had cause to ask cus service help on a couple of ocassions , oh my it was the best ever experience, quick response, 100% professional, easy going helpful. Great service. Great bank and as it has established itself has all the services you could require. Now does easy cheque processing to simple, no having to travel to town, find parking and often having to queue in the bank. At most now just put details on back of cheques, Freeport envelope and a stroll (with the dog) to nearest post box - simple. Myself, husband, son, his girlfriend, my brother also have now joined Starling, I get the thanks and praise for introduction but only because Starling bank is just the best way to do all your banking , direct debits, payroll income whatever Starling is the NEW Bank ‘from’ the high street into your home. Thanks Starling team!!!!! Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

All is super simple. The phone app is so convenient. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Makes banking a pleasure

Everything about Starling feels modern, polished, and easy to use. I signed up in less time than it took my old bank to sort out a simple problem. Everything since then has been a joy … not something I expected to say about a bank! Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Best for overseas travel

Very user friendly- excellent for travelling overseas- no glitches with the app Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

A refreshing break from the norm

In a world of distrust and negative opinion of the banking sector Starling Bank is a refreshing change. This app based bank offers a far quicker and feature rich experience. No fiddly card readers, far greater control and access to ALL statement data, fantastic notification settings, savings pots and second to none in-app support, to name but a few. I notice that all the other high street banks are scrabbling around to add the same features that Starling has been championing all along. That says it all. Out with the old and in with the new. I definitely will not be going back! Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Best app based banking

Simply Amazing

What reason anyone has anyone got to stay with big unethical banks? Starling is hands down the best of the best when it comes to products and service. Continuous improvements to an already stellar company keep these guys floating on top. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019
