Great bank, so straightforward to join and then to work with on a daily basis. Easy to log-in, to make payments, even easier to receive payments, and the instand alerts on your phone to inform you of payments received and made are informative Reviewed on: 14th January 2019

Great app. Great service. Cool product

The app is really simple to use and it's great that you do everything within it. Customer service are great people and sort any issues out really quick. The current account cars gets all my friends talking with it unique design and great colour. Plus the feathers of the account are new and innovative. Can't believe the other banks are not following Starlings lead. Reviewed on: 13th January 2019

Distruptive banking at its best

4
This application based bank is superb. Originally signed up to take advantage of the no fees when abroad however discovered this account offered me so much more with transactions shown on your phone in real time, to tracking how and where I've spent my money on a day to day and month by month basis. It's really easy to set up and if you have queries there is a dedicated helpline available as well. Reviewed on: 13th January 2019

New bank, new thinking, brilliant service

I have only been a customer a few days and have already locked myself out of my account. I was back on line in no time. The website and card are super sleek and sexy. Sexy banking.... who knew!? Reviewed on: 13th January 2019
