Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

Good bank

Been with Monzo and Starling banks Starling stands out with fee free atm abroad , free cash deposit at post office, low overdraft fees and just feel better. Reviewed on: 7th February 2020

Great service

Great app for banking, no hassle very easy. With Sterling you in full control. They have 24/7 customer support by chat and call which is very useful. I wish all the best for Sterling Bank company. Good luck Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Amazing service

I originally opened a Starling current account for a 3 week trip across Canada and the US due to incurring no fee's charge for foreign transactions, but I am now migrating by everyday banking to them too. The app is so user friendly and customer service response is brilliant. No more waiting to get through to a customer service via telephone and speaking to someone who has no idea how to help you. I've only had a couple of issues that I've had to contact them with, both my fault and both dealt with swiftly and professionaly. I frequently recommend Starling to friends and family.

Awesome forward thinking bank!!

Starling is awesome sauce! They continue to innovate banking and I always look forward to what they do next, and when they have an update I never fail to think 'what a great idea'! Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Excellent banking experience, I've fully switched to Starling

I have had account with 6 High Street banks since I emigrated to the UK almost a decade ago. I've had bad experiences, and okay experiences. I've now fully switched to Starling, my salary is paid in to my account evrry month, and I am having an excellent banking experience. The sign up was very fast and smooth. Support has been nothing short of stellar. I run an IT service desk in a major public institution and I understand how difficult it is to get customer support right. Starling don't just do it properly, I've actually never experienced anything this good before. I have recommended this bank to all my friends, some have joined. Others have joined close competitors. I do have a secondary account with a major competitor app only bank, but Starling will remain my main bank. This is the way banking should be done. Long may it continue!
