Brilliant service

So easy to open the account, I have in fact opened a business account too Reviewed on: 3rd January 2020

No ATM charges abroad is a bonus

Having no ATM charges abroad is a particular bonus for me, but the app and the ability to set up different accounts (Spaces) so I can budget for all of my various outgoings is brilliant. Reviewed on: 13th March 2024

I switched from Santander

I switched from Santander, whose changes to banking were high-handed. Starling has a great online setup for banking. It is very clear, and straightforward. Starling seems to think ‘what would the customer like’? Reviewed on: 13th March 2024
