Awesome company

So easy to work with and glad I have an account Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

First time I actually recommended a bank!

5
I'm generally hesitant to recommend companies/products/brands to friends and family, mainly because I'd feel guilty if they're not satisfied. I did not expect much when I created an account with Starling, but I've been surprised by how everything works so seamlessly, how their customer support is genuinely available 24/7 (unlike others like revolut/monzo) and responded quickly to chat requests. Instant notifications work perfectly and they're one of the few banks that also supports Fitbit pay. It's actually the first time that I've felt a bank works seamlessly on every aspect I needed a bank account for, and I openly recommend the bank even though there's no referral system.

All in one travel toolkit

Cannot fault the account and service, used while driving across Europe and while in Azerbaijan didn't miss a beat and saved enough for a couple of extra meals out. Family members and friends have now joined and I recommend the starling account on the forum that I am a member of. I no longer need to transfer money abroad for spending and bill payment, I just go to a ATM and withdraw what I need as I need it , all without charges and at MasterCard rate. Highly recommended.
