Modern app based banking at its best

Customer service and communication consistently top notch. App clear and easy to use. Helpful features include seeing a clear breakdown of your spending. Reviewed on: 28th March 2022

Simple, efficient and a leader in innovation

Starling Bank is always looking to improve customer experience with new simple innovations, such as: immediate notifications of transactions. Some of the so called big 5 UK banks have still to catch up with this. We also like the ease of sharing costs by transferring monies between other Starling users Reviewed on: 28th March 2022

Amazing and friendly bank!

Starling makes banking so much easier with so many intuitive features like spaces and connected card and their customer service is second to none. Even if I ask questions completely unrelated to banking, they go out of their way to provide the information. Reviewed on: 28th March 2022

Piss taker. Do take customers for ignorant idiots

I initially thought: great. A bank with a feel good relax attitude. Relax more like horizontal and do not give a shit. They caused ne an acciu t closure 8 didnt ask. Never answered basic questions about money missing. Refused to activate card and to dolve the issue, decude to close 5he avcount and pretend nothing happened. Oh and open joint account without telling me and ti cover their mistakes, gave the fraudster my okd bank details and gave me some new ones.. it is a disgraced. And the accounts i cannot open but cannot remove from my fike is also a coincidence or another pisstake?? Reviewed on: 28th March 2022
