The Best Bank

Easy account to set up, everything is online and no queueing up in a branch office.. Thank the lord. Starling takes over by transferring everything over from my old bank to my new one. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

no fuss bank

Love Starling, had a holiday in NZ recently and used my debit card everywhere, within seconds I had a message telling me exactly how much I had spent in pounds GB so I could keep an eye on how much I had without even having to open the app Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Bank revolution

Best Banking Experience Ever

Starling Bank is the perfect bank. So easy to apply and get up and running, the app is super intuitive and perfect for day-to-day use. When I messaged their support team about a small issue regarding 'Goals', I received a response within an hour and then a confirmation that the issue had been resolved within a couple of hours. Most traditional banks would have customers on the phone/on hold for that length of time just to register an investigation let alone find and implement a solution. The app provides instant confirmation of transactions, which is reassuring on a day-to-day basis but is also comforting knowing that I'd have instant notification of a fraudulent transaction, if one where to take place. Card security is taken even further by the fully customisable card controls which give the ability to turn off curtain types of payments. Every experience I've had with Starling, including messaging a couple of people in the support team, their website, their email updates and the app, have been great. It just works and it works well. I recommend them to friends and family whenever it comes up and I've already converted my girlfriend to hold her main account with them as well as a joint account we share. Cannot speak highly enough of them! Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Secure speedy and slick

Took a long trip with a young family and not much money across Europe last year and needed a bank with no transaction charges and accessibility when internet not guaranteed., so speedy secure service needed. Brilliantly delivered thanks Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

No Hassle

Their technology is reliable, and their customer service excellent. I love the fact that transactions happen in real-time, meaning I can better manage my money. Being able to lock my card, isolate cash, and round up transactions and save the difference are excellent features. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Awesome Bank!

Love everything about Starling! Great app. Debit card works in every country I’ve used it - Spain, Georgia, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Philippines. So glad I found this bank! Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Great help for budgeting

Excellent little bank account with excellent budgeting tools and free withdrawals and payments when I'm overseas Reviewed on: 8th February 2019
