Best service ever. The type of account you can't do without. Makes other banks seem myopic Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

The most easy and inviting bank

Was off to France, sick of charges here and there - did a quick search, thought too good to be true, applied, got approved, nice pleasant and simple process, still think too good to be true, but now think is true, is it? I think it is - still in recovery so will reserve judgement for a few more months. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Best bank I've used and its amazing services and reliable.. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

It's simple, easy and works!

Great bank and service. The app is very user friendly, everything works and there is a fantastic user experience. Two things I would like to see changed are 1) the ability to have more than one current account (limited to one as of writing) and 2) sort the issue with PayPal so you can transfer funds out of PayPal to the starling account (an issue that they are working on alongside MasterCard. PayPal thinks Starling is a credit account and not a current account and does not allow money to be withdrawn to that account). Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Amazing customer services It take a few seconds to get updates. Banking at the highest level. They really know what the phrase "customer is king" is about. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

A clear winner in my eyes.

Simple to set up and with zero fees on purchases and atm withdrawals overseas makes starling bank a clear winner in my eyes. No other bank offers this level of fee free banking for travellers. Excellent. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019
