So far so good

5
Swapped to Starling as we have no banks I the high street anyway, so I thought it best to use a bank that is dedicated on line... Starling looked the best in the reviews and indeed it seems those reviews. Once old people like me get used to the App it's all very simple and easy to use, no flash stuff, no gimmicks just popper banking with all you need from a current account.

Great customer service with an easy and flexible account

5
Starling provides a really flexible account with easy transfers between a sterling and a euro account. An illustration of this is using my card i don't have to switch currencies, as the payment automatically comes out of the correct account, which is so useful for a frequent traveller to and from Europe, Starling have terrific customer service as it is easy to either speak to someone who is always very helpful or set up a chat on line. Their agents are so patient, and reassuring even with the most banal enquiries. This is not something i have found with every banking customer helpline Another really good feature is the way that notifications ping through in real time giving confidence of spend. Purchases are easy to track in the app so screen grabs can be used to prove payments if there is a query All the information i need is in the app on my phone - so always available to find . A great 5 star service all round - well done Starling Reviewed on: 3rd April 2023

At Last! Better banking
