Lack of support from the Post Officce.

Since I started using Starling Bank. any problems I have had have been overcome extremely quickly, One problem that always niggles is that if the cash machine is out of order the Post Office won't help you but they will help anyone from any other bank. Reviewed on: 12th October 2024

Reply from Starling Bank Glad you've had a good experience overall. Sorry the Post Office hasn't been the same. You should be able to take out a maximum of £300 at the Post. However, not all Post Offices will be able to do this all the time due to the amount of cash held. Response date: 22nd October 2024

Nothing is too much trtouble for their customer services team. You just go to Help in the app and then choose gow you want to contact them. I have never had a problem they couldnn't solve in course of a conversation. Reviewed on: 24th September 2024

The app is so easy to use, and so intuitive.

The app is so easy to use, and so intuitive. We have it as a joint account for our household expenses and find it very helpful that the app notifies us when we have scheduled payments due to come out the next day, and whether there is enough money to cover them. Reviewed on: 4th September 2024

Reply from Starling Bank We're pleased that our banking services have been helpful Eleri. Notifications are so handy for keeping on top of scheduled payments, we're glad they've helped out. Thanks for the feedback. Team Starling Response date: 6th September 2024

From the day one I have never looked back. This bank provides an excellent service for all my needs. The app is very easy to use and it has fantastic features. My favourite feature is Spaces where I can create as many little money saving 'pockets' as I need. The next thing that I love is how my spending is displayed, I can see how I spend my money and allow me to make informed decisions. Also, I can communicate with the team through the app and get any help if I need it. I can ramble all day about the greatness of the Starling bank because I have never ever been disappointed. I completely trust it with my money! Reviewed on: 31st August 2024

Reply from Starling Bank Only looking forward here Dina! Thanks for your loyalty, it means a lot. Sounds like you've got everything organised, especially with your Spaces. Feel free to ramble away whenever you feel like it! We love to hear it. Thanks for your feedback. Team Starling Response date: 6th September 2024

This bank makes me feel like it watches over my money when I'm not good at. It let's you put money aside I haven't seen yet a saving where higher rate and high rate & time before money able back is next one way you might help customers connect to credit agencies show it how bad or good you done that month. The bank is good and hope it stays Reviewed on: 29th August 2024

Reply from Starling Bank It's great to know the app has allowed you to organise your finances better. Thanks for your feedback, we're thrilled you're finding us useful. Team Starling Response date: 6th September 2024

Happy, great for holidays abroad.

Happy, We only use Starling to spend when we travel abroad as no fees. Unfortunately when I tried to change to a joint account with my wife I was informed that we couldn't, with no explanation. So our daily current account remains and Starling account remains purely for our 2 or 3 trips every year. Reviewed on: 27th August 2024

Reply from Starling Bank We're happy to know your Starling account has come in handy on your travels! Please ask your wife to get in touch with us at [email protected] and our team can take a look at the Joint Account application. Team Starling Response date: 6th September 2024

Just clean simple Banking

Love Starling, no messing about just clean simple banking that has never let me down. Customer service always available if I ever need them (Which as been once in 5 years), insights are useful but not intrusive like other apps and there is no feature that I do not use to make the service feel bloated. Just a really good product. Reviewed on: 25th August 2024
