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.

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
