Richly deserved! Always been dubious of these awards based on past winners and the way the voting works, but finally a winner that makes sense!

The past winners havenāt changed, so has the way the voting works changed?

So you are dubious of awards if you donāt agree with the results? Maybe you just disagree with the winner rather than anything dubious happening?

Did Starling forget to message all their customers telling them to vote this year?
(This I presume was the criticism of āthe way voting worksā)

Fair points. I guess Iām somewhat dubious of how Starling almost always had way more votes cast than Monzo (like more than double) when they have less than halve of Monzoās user numbers - that just doesnāt smell right. And as a user of both products, Monzo is streets ahead of Starling from a user interface/experience perspective (in my opinionā¦).
Last time I checked for this round of awards, Starling actually had more votes and a higher score than Monzo, so not sure whether the award organisers took a view as to how the scoring system was working in practice

I think Monzo finally won this award because someone forgot to log into the 500 duplicate email accounts to give 5 stars. 
Heads will roll and there will be an action plan going forward to make sure the ant and dec of banking award winners never lose again 
Also, without the sarcasm, well done Monzo!

That pipeline was not just super-optimised, but also recognised for it

Weāre used, in many fields, to marginal gains. A percent here or there making all the difference
And then thereās 83%!!

The banking landscape must surely have blossomed, with banks oneās never heard of winning awards.
There is no chance in hell Starling just ask everyone and yet organically end up with a 4.97/5 rating over about 20000 reviews.
Something very dodgy about their score.
I donāt recall them ever asking me, but if they did, Iād certainly give them a higher score than Monzo (and an equal score to every other bank I use). Starling, from a pure banking perspective, is a better bank for my needs than Monzo.

Care to elaborate why you think so?
All banks make it easy to borrow donāt they? Isnāt that the point?
Got a credit score? Here, take this!
