Most beautiful card

5
I've tried some others but Starling was my favourite. I love how easy to use the app is. Their customer service was great but I've only needed to use it once. Also, I get so many comments on how beautiful my card is. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

It so easy and everything is in real time

Opening my account and using it was so easy to do. I love how quickly I can see transactions and the notifications when payments have been made.

A bank that makes looking after your money so easy

I love that I can chat instantly with someone, and however obscure my question is, I get an answer really quickly. Getting interest on my money is a great bonus and the ease and speed of international transactions and the value for money is exceptional. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

The best bank in my phone keeps getting better

5
My account was set up immediately. It’s controled by a well thought out App. I never have to drive miles to find one or queue up in a bank. Transfers are instant, payments are instant and although I receive my receipts online I can pay in cash and cheques if I want to. There is a great support team who deal with issues immediately. I said after marrying my 2nd wife I would never fall in love again but I love Starling. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Better than the others

I have had an overwhelmingly positive experience with starling. Its simple, customer service is good, and it's already saved me over 100 pounds by having the very best exchange rates while I'm travelling. And there's no fee. Simply amazing. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Great on line bank, constantly updating and easy to manage
