Thirty years with my old bank

5
Bank switching can be time consuming, there are a lot of direct debits, new ways to bank, new cards, new APPs, and new account numbers to remember. Especially when you've been with the same bank for 30+ years. Very simple to switch over to Starling and I love using the APP and their services. Reviewed on: 31st March 2023

A breath of fresh air....

A bank account that's so easy and straightforward to use. And ethical too. I'm nagging everyone I know to change to Starling. Reviewed on: 31st March 2023

Super awesome. Better than Monzo!

Starling makes everything so easy and intuitive. I tried setting up a Monzo account earlier this year - I'd closed it within months. Starling is much more slick to use as an app. Reviewed on: 31st March 2023

Have been with Starling since 2018, so glad I joined them. Any issues it is so easy to get hold of a agent and information is easily available. The app itself is so easy to use and navigate around plus security features are very good. Also the market section is very good. Highly recommended Reviewed on: 31st March 2023

Secure and easy to use

I have been a customer for 3 years, their app is easy to navigate they are very mindful of unusual transactions, for example I was about to buy a second hand car, and Starling called me to make sure I had done all the necessary checks, I was really impressed this level of service. My whole family are now Starling customers. Reviewed on: 31st March 2023
