Good service

5
Good service. Sorted out an issue I had. Also gain interest on funds in account. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Very impressed

5
Very impressed so far, especially cash withdrawals when abroad. Early days and haven't yet moved my main banking to Starling, but may well do so in future. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Simple, straightforward banking!

5
Starling have made online banking so easy to use. Organising my money with their banking app is so easy and the ‘Goals’ facility has meant I am budgeting so much better than I ever have before. I can’t rate them highly enough. While bringing banking into the 21st century they still understand that there is a need to retain some older gen facilities so have just introduced a way for customers to deposit cheques. They are constantly updating and making things easier for their customers. 10/10 Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Thank goodness for Starling

5
Amazing overview of funds spends and the dashboard you can create for savings is brilliant. So easy to use! Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Wonderful, new-age back!

5
Having tried many of the digital, app-only banks available at present, I have to say that Starling's commitment to bring the best really shows through. They continually introduce new features, including a recent cheque freepost service, and small touches in the app make it the easiest to use, and an enjoyable experience! Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Fantastic bank love the fact that everything is instant, has Starling for around a year now and recently took the plunge and switched my main bank account that was with HSBC over to starling Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

So very slick and easy

5
Best customer experience I’ve had from a bank. Loved wife and parents not to starling as a result - concerns about not having bricks and mortar to visit by my folks have been 100% mitigated by people being online to talk any time we’ve needed it. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

The future

5
It’s easy and at hand when ever I need simple and affective Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Future of Banking

5
Excellent service app is everything you wish for notifications when you use your card . High street banks are a thing of the past. I wouldn’t be with any other bank. Thank you Starling HQ for being customer focused innovative and creative Reviewed on: 9th February 2019
