Great experience

I used to be with Nationwide, Starlings app and customer service blows them out of the water. No card reader, Starlings app has a built in budget tracker. The best bit is that you can see money coming and going days before it does. Reviewed on: 1st April 2023

Outstanding

Everything with starling is easy. From setting my account up, to using the spaces. Clear instructions. Transparency. Constantly updating and keeping with and usually ahead of competitors without shoving it down your throat. Seems as though its not owned by old people with old money. Refreshing. Was the easiest to change my name with. Yet it still feels so secure. I can trust this bank. Reviewed on: 1st April 2023
