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

Love this bank

5
Excellent service. As a personal user I couldn't fault it and would heartily recommend. The only thing I would suggest is for business bank accounts to allow access for non-directors, so that we could switch to this bank at my company - unfortunately this feature makes it impossible for us to use currently.

I set up a current account with Starling last week. I was so impressed at how quick and seamless the whole process was. No unnecessary hoops to jump through and excellent communication throughout. Now that I'm set up, the app is intuitive, clean and simple to use. 5*. Reviewed on: 25th January 2023
