Fantastic Bank

Absolutely amazing bank. Great easy to use app. Very secure. Extremely easy to get in contact with customer service through the app- with great, helpful, friendly staff. I’ve never been more in control of my money than with Starling. Can’t reccomend enough. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Amazing for travel

I was told about this bank from my wife who also uses it as she works overseas a lot and we are both sick of endless charges when abroad. Also being able to use it abroad with out telling them you are going and then still getting declined. (HSBC you should ashamed of yourselves for doing that) When talking to the customer service department when there is an issue always there and very helpful Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

My first choice

Account was easy to set up and hazlze free. Communication straightforward by email and response prompt. Courteous and helpful customer service staff. Money transfers, national and international, easy with no hoops to jump through. I gave not had any problems so far. What’s not to like. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019
