Good bank

Brilliant!

Absolutely faultless! Everything you need at your fingertips and just works!!! In 3 -4 years I didn't have to make one call, no niggle, no issues, HIGHLY RECCOMMENDED !!!! Some companies don't accept it as credible bank for credit, etc. I don't know why???? I was forced to get this account due to my bad credit, but I would never get back to a "conventional bank", Starling JUST WORKS!!!! Reviewed on: 6th April 2023
