Extremely innovative

This bank actually makes me feel like it wants my business. Extremely innovative in their ideas and very forward thinking. It's refreshing to see a bank work for you, rather than work for your money. Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

Excellent mobile current account app with real-time updates help me keep track of my spending. Easy bank transfer payments and great exchange rates when used abroad makes this my main bank account Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

Fresh new bank fit for purpose

5
I love this bank. It as been designed with the customer in mind. I have used First Direct for over 25 years and they were always ahead of the competition. But Starling blows them out of the water. Easy access to view your account, ability to put money aside without opening another account, instantly being able to see your daily spending. This bank is a breath of fresh air. I recently had a query and this was resolved in super quick time by their customer services which has a very personal touch. I cannot fault Starling. Reviewed on: 8th December 2018
