Game changing bank account

5
Love, love, love Starling! My family were so impressed when they looked at my app that 4 of them now have Starling accounts. I also have a business account. Everything is so quick and streamlined. It's also very transparent so you know where you are with charges etc. It's very quick and the notifications of what you have spent are nigh on instant which makes me feel secure where fraud is concerned. Highly recommended- oh, customer service is fantastic. Well done Starling Reviewed on: 9th December 2018

They are really excellent

I’ve really enjoyed banking with them. It’s seamless. They’re never there in your faces but they are actually always there - to help you out and to ensure AML & security of accounts. Reviewed on: 9th December 2018

the best mobile-only challenger bank out there.

5
Being 100 percent mobile-only bank is a great step and is very convenient for me as I can do all my bank works just staying at my home. The best part is I can edit my contact details and home address all by myself and can get to contact the customer service team 24/7, whether by a phone call or chat. Keep up the good work and looking forward to see more lucrative service and offer. Reviewed on: 9th December 2018
