Brilliant !!

How banking should be, any issues easy online chat Reviewed on: 31st March 2023

Simple, user friendly banking.

Great bank. Being exclusively online with no "high street" locations may put people off, but it shouldn't. The app is very easy use, never offline for maintenance. Sending or receiving money is easy and fast. A notification informing me that I've taken money out of a cash machine appears before the money even comes out! I've only had to call them once, the person was polite, professional and friendly and the issue I had was dealt with quickly. Paying in cash can be done at post office if needed. Definitely the best bank I've used and I've recommended to friends and family many times. Reviewed on: 31st March 2023

Brilliant customer service always there to help out when needed, I love this bank Reviewed on: 31st March 2023

Very helpful graphically and helps me distribute and put money aside for different things

I find it a very useful account in which I can set up spaces to keep money in which I can now pay directly from. I also have an additional account included which I also use for putting money aside for certain payments. Very useful app and helpful support staff I'd definitely highly recommend Starling Bank Accounts. Reviewed on: 31st March 2023
