Easy, reliable & friendly

5
I've been using starling for my personal and business account provider for 4 years now, and I just can't fault them. Their app is quick and easy to use, with lots functionality. Plus I can log in via the web portal if I need to do more in-depth things. Over the 4 years I think I've had to contact customer services twice, and on both occasions my query has been resolved within minutes. I wouldn't go back to a hight street bank now.

Brilliant Bank

5
Been banking with Starling for a few years now and I can highly recommend this bank. The bills pot is excellent, I pay a set amount into every week and let starling handle paying the bills when they fall due whilst I get on with my life. If you do have a query it is always dealt with promptly and professionally by a real person via the chat option, no more waiting for someone to answer a phone in a call center in a different country! Well done Starling..........keep it up. Reviewed on: 31st March 2023
