Easiest way of banking I have used....

I originally started using Starling after looking at an account to use whilst on holiday to Canada for a couple of weeks and wanted to go about my life and payments easily and not carry around loads of CAD or have too many FX fees. Using the card abroad was super easy, the info given was great and I was very happy - then after a few months back home using my normal bank, I decided to switch it all over. Change all my DDs and use starling moving forward. I personally have never had an issue, it is easy to set up payments and also track your spending as well as creating pots for savings as you need to! I love it and will not be going back to a standard high street bank! Reviewed on: 26th January 2023

Cannot fault them

Few years been with Starling now and I simple cannot fault them. The app is perfect, the security is tight even to the fact that send own money to different accounts a get caution messages! Reviewed on: 26th January 2023

Quick and Simple

There’s no fuss whatsoever. Just works as it should. Not having to physically go to a bank from time to time is great. Reviewed on: 26th January 2023

It's the best

You can contact them anytime you want you can chat with them most high street bank have live chat but you have to call them to sort problems out this is the best bank Reviewed on: 25th January 2023

A breath of fresh air

So much easier to use. Love the app and the notifications just wish there was more human interaction. Used the chat facility to ask a question who says they’d refer it and I’d get a message but still have haven’t heard back. Reviewed on: 25th January 2023

Starling Bank is leading the way

Great customer service and an easy to use app. Finally there’s a bank built for the 21st century. Reviewed on: 25th January 2023

Poor app and customer service

Was a starling customer from 2017 until late 2022. Nothing but issues with their app and customer service. CASS to another bank as I couldn’t take it any longer. Reviewed on: 25th January 2023
