Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

No-Nonsense

No waiting, no excuses, simple easy banking, they show the others how it should be done. Reviewed on: 3rd February 2023

NO HELP WHEN REALLY NEEDED

Not great, asking for help at a very stressful time with no joy from your bank. after speaking with 14 different finance companies, got help from 90% of them. And my own bank said no to any assistance. After putting millions through the account. Will be thinking a out changing my bank when we get going again. Reviewed on: 13th March 2024
