Excellent

Exactly what I want from a bank Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

First class product and service

Hugely impressed from the moment I opened the account -which was simplicity itself. Spent 10 weeks travelling in Australia in 2018 and calculated I saved thousands in foreign currency charges using my Starling card. The App is elegant and comprehensive and the customer service is superb. Making a call in the app from Australia and being answered by a real person at 2:00am UK time who was able to 100% address my issue in under 60 seconds is transformative. Keep up the good work!

Excellent modern bank account

So simple and informative, texts confirm everything I spend keeping updated to my usage. No charges abroad is key and always great exchange rates. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Brilliant no fuss bank

Been with starling now approx 10 months and it’s never been easier. Love the notifications of money in and out and the round up feature is a bonus!! Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Easy and smart bank

Opened an account as wanted to use my Fitbit Ionic to pay contactless and also works with Google Pay. Easy to open the account and great little features such as "Spaces" which rounds up each transaction and puts it into a savings account. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

I cannot fault it

I can’t fault starling for the banking experience they offer. As they listen to their customers requests they update the app, constantly innovating. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Everything I want in a bank

An entire bank on your smartphone!

Wonderful and efficient. The best bank I've ever used. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Excellent All Round Service

Sparkling app, monthly interest on credit balances, free withdrawals abroad at the wholesale bank rate - what’s not to like?!? Reviewed on: 9th February 2019
