Dead wood

They stopped developing and moving on. Also, I will take decision my self when and how much to invest into cryptocurrencies. Reviewed on: 26th January 2023

Best bank ever

High street banks are out of touch, other challenger banks are too slow or rely on gimmicks. Starling has the balance right - useful tools to help manage my money paired with customer service to help with tricky situations. All without leaving the sofa! 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
