Starling Bank Current account reviews (27458)

Absolutely brilliant

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

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

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

Future of Banking

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

Easy to use, support is brilliant, constantly improving.

I was sceptical when I first heard about Starling being not only an Internet bank, but actually being a mobile phone app only bank. I have had no issues at all, the support is quick to respond. The app is very easy to use, they are constantly improving and adding additional services, can't recommend them highly enough. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

How banking should be

Instant notifications and visibility on all transactions, hardly any fees for doing anything, even pays interest, and I like their purple :) Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

This is how modern day banking should be

From the initial setting up of the account to the day to day running of it, everything is just simple. All the functionality of my high street and then some, with updates and notifications when you want them, not up to a week later. All my family are moving there accounts across now. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Wonderful mobile banking experience

The best thing about Starling is its responsiveness. The chatroom in the app provides assistance to customers 24/7. I have always got a helpful solution straightaway from them instead of meaningless bureaucratic response. Strongest candidate among all for the award. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Disruption on street banks
