Dead wood

Refreshing Banking

Been with Starling for two years now having taken the leap from a high street bank. At first was unsure, but after a few weeks was highly impressed and continue to be. Starling are innovative, by the people for the people, listen to customers and keep impressing, making banking so much easier. Reviewed on: 24th January 2023

One of the best companies to use

Starling is so useful and easy to use, so much so the whole family use it. we love the ease of use and the fact you can have spaces for savings. could not recommend enough Reviewed on: 24th January 2023

Glad I Made The Move

I have been running a Starling current account in parallel with my HSBC current account for some months. Everything with Starling ran smoothly from the start and queries answered by the excellent customer support team in a friendly, knowledgable and professional manner. HSBC continues to have strong links with China and still trades with Russia, so I decided to switch. The process went smoothly with all direct debits etc moving over without any problems,. AS bonus was that my payees were also transferred over, so there was no setting up new accounts for them. More than satisified with Starling and an added plus point is that I can withdraw cash from banks in Greece without a surcharge. Reviewed on: 24th January 2023
