Everything the antiquated banks isn't

5
My account was open in seconds and my card arrived the next day. I was up and running in seconds. My last Account took the bank of Scotland six months and lots of hassle to open and I swore I'd never go through that again for any bank. No charges for anything I do, my previous bank charged me every single month. No errors as everything is automated. My previous banks all made regular errors and then made me call scripted foreign call centres where language barriers and frustrating scripts made it impossible to resolve. When I spend money Mt starling app tells me before I even get a receipt what's been debited..if anyone else managed to clone or find my card, I can switch it off and on at will my previous banks meant the stress of that call centre again. I'm delighted with Starling Bank, I am sharing with everyone and I look forward to everyone realising that they don't have to put up with high street banks ever again. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Best customer service, a bank that takes care of you. No fees at all. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Very good phone bank!

5
My experience has been fantastic. I have had the account for a while now and never had an issue. It was very easy and quick to open an account. Very user friendly, easy to make paying to old and new payees as well as make international payments. I love the saving pots as it makes it easy to save for a goal! They keep adding or updating services instead of resting on their laurels and the best thing I can do everything from my phone! No need to visit a branch or have to log on to my computer! I hope they start ISA accounts soon. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019
