Best decision I ever made!

I was apprehensive joining a bank with no branches but it is by the best account I have had and I have previously been with HSBC,Lloyds and TSB. I have recommended two friends to the bank who also speak highly of STARLING and do not regret the switch at all. Customer services that genuinely care and are always at hand in many formats! Best decision I ever made. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Excellent Internet Baking Service

My journey began by advertisement on Facebook, not sure how good and reliable starling bank was. Signed up was clear, easy to setup. Wanted an current account to keep track of work expenses, separate from my household bills etc. Wow, pay for fuel, ping how much you spent, from 30 seconds to a few minutes. Beats dd any day, The interest rates are very good, the features they are adding to the app are good. Customer service are very helpful, profffessional and do care about customers needs and representing the company they work for. I have recommended to friend and family this is the future banking system for the customers in our fast pace of life. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019
