Excellent for every aspect my bank needs

Initially I went to Starling because of their Euro exchange rates, but as time has progressed I've bought into every relevant service they introduced. Excellent customer service, interest, introduction to collate my pensions into Pension Bee, immediate notifications, pay in to Post Office etc. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Brilliant bank

Since opening our accounts I cannot fault the level of service we have received. It's great knowing immediately whats gone from your account and the actual real balance. I've loved the updates that have been made including the joint account and rounding up to save towards a goal. Customer services has been excellent and got to the root of the problem and sorted anything out immediately. This is how a bank should be. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019
