Excellent banking experience

5
Does everything I need and more keep up the good work Reviewed on: 13th January 2019

Simply the best

5
It's just brilliant the way it works for you,you get recipes through on your phone before you even leave the shop counter . They message you when a bill is paid or not paid . It's just a brilliant bank and when you phone them it's so so nice talking to someone who listens and talk to you as if a friend,not like something they have just stood on.

Great card and easy to use

5
I was looking for a card to use abroad on holidays and not worry about exchange rates and loading currency. Found Starling card and used it on a couple of holidays in the US. No issues at all and it’s so easy to keep a track of spending in pounds (not the local currency). Now, after recommending the card to many friends and family it’s so easy to transfer money between each other via the app. Love it! Reviewed on: 13th January 2019

What a bank should be

Most banks are stuck in the 90’s. Starling are refreshingly modern and up to date with what consumers want Reviewed on: 13th January 2019

Amazing

5
I've been with Starling for about 1 year. My salary is paid directly into it. I haven't moved the entire account because I have a credit catd with them. Just a few more DD to transfer. I love the innovation they keep doing. It's like a journey and love seeing all the new things they keep adding. Never been much of a saver. But the round-up, genius saving without thinking.

Fast opening, great service.

The fastest account opening I have ever experienced, customer service is friendly, with a personal feel. Best banking app! Everything is so fast and easy to set up. Great card/account for traveling in Europe too. I have already recommend to family and friends. Reviewed on: 13th January 2019
