Best bank account

5
The easiest bank account I have ever held. Easy set up, easy to apply for an overdraft with simple, straight up advice about fees. Regular notifications for payments (pending Inc.) best experience ever had with a bank Reviewed on: 15th January 2019

Exceptional

5
Having been recommended to Starling Bank by a friend and taken the plunge in AUG 2018 I can honestly say that this bank has been a long time coming. It offers exceptional customer service and banking facilities which I found lacking in my previous bank. This is how banking should be and I’m sure over time others will follow in the wake of Starling. Well done and thank you. Reviewed on: 15th January 2019

Great bank and great customer support

5
The app is so simple and easy to use compared to other banks, the instant notifications and merchant spending has allowed me to better control my finances. Whenever I’ve had a question or an idea for a feature I never hesitate to speak to the great support team, they’re always helpful and take on ideas. Reviewed on: 15th January 2019

Banking for 2019

5
I’ve been a startling customer for some time and the app is just a complete delight to use. When I have to jump into apps for my other accounts with the big banks, the difference is stark. If there is such a thing as a millennial bank, this is it! Reviewed on: 15th January 2019
