How banking should be

5
Starling have created something so simple to use I actually forget it's a bank sometimes. They give you updates on their roadmap and developments as they go rather than you just find out a new feature has been released. The customer service is so easy and convenient to contact. Right within the app via chat. But most importantly they listen to ideas and feedback from customers on what we are missing. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Banking For The 21st Century

Quite simply the best experience I have ever had with a bank. I don't think I need to say anything else. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

The future

Seamless app integration, perfect for travelling abroad. The future of banking. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Smooth, fast, modern, open

5
Near-perfect bank with much better experience than any other big banks. It is super fast and enables our familiy to have a real-time view on our expenses and take back control. We are now just waiting for cash/junior ISA savings, credit card, euro account and better insurance deals/partnerships for it to be absolutely perfect. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

I didn't think I would ever be as enthusiastic about a bank to bother writing a review but Starling is just in a class of its own. Unlimited fee-free cash withdrawals abroad, fantastic app interface, excellent customer service and cheap foreign transfers. What's not to love?? Reviewed on: 9th February 2019
