ModernnBanking at its finest.

5
Made the decision to embrace modern banking after 30yrs with Halifax. Easy setup within 5mins and the current account switch went through seemlessly. The dashboard is fantastic for keeping an eye on your spending and makes budgeting a doddle. Thoroughly recommend. Well done Starling!! Reviewed on: 12th December 2018

Super fast set up, great customer service

5
It only takes a few minutes to open a Starling current account - such a sleek and smooth process. Their customer service team are on hand 24 hours a day, so if you do have a question, you can call when you like. Reviewed on: 12th December 2018

Best bank ever!

An absolutely fantastic bank! Wonderful customer service in every way, and a fantastic product Reviewed on: 12th December 2018

would be lost without it

I never knew how bad i was at managing money, until i started to use Starling. The banking app gives me real-time visibility of my cashflow, meaning i know exactly what i'm spending and when. It even gives me a warning to let me know money is running out so i don't overspend or end up in an overdraft. Reviewed on: 12th December 2018

My foreign account

I love that Starling saves me money now when I'm abroad. I don't need to take a load of cash to make sure I'm getting a good exchange. And the interest on my account - ah, so kind of them. Reviewed on: 12th December 2018

Easy, simple and in control.

As quite a techie guy I love the instant ability to control my finance in a fresh and modern way. For me, its been a great bank to move to after 20 years with HSBC whos disgraceful customer support pushed me to move, very glad I am now with Starling Bank, keep up the good work.
