I closed my account after no help from customer service. Had account for years. Account is okay, service is poor. Reviewed on: 9th April 2024

By far the best bank in the UK

The app is so user friendly. I love that whenever I spend money I get immediate notifications. The security is brilliant and outshines the old dinosaur banks. The customer service is excellent. I will never leave Starling Bank (unless they get bought out by one of the old out of date high street banks!) Reviewed on: 18th January 2022

As good as it gets

Fantastic

I was previously with another online banking app and moved to Starling in 2021. I am so pleased that I did. As a self-employed business woman Starling has made banking and bookkeeping effortless. I am always recommending Starling to people for personal and business use. Reviewed on: 18th January 2022

SO EFFICIENT AND EASY TO SET UP AND USE

AFTER TRYING FOR MONTHS TO UNSUCCESSFULLY SET UP A BUSINESS ACCOUNT WITH HSBC A FRIEND RECOMMENDED STARLING TO ME. 3 DAYS LATER I WAS UP AND RUNNING. OVER A YEAR LATER THE ACCOUNT IS RUNNING SMOOTHLY AND IS SO USER FRIENDLY. I'VE NOW SET UP A CURRENT ACCOUNT AS WELL. MODERN BANKING FOR THE MODERN WAY OF LIVING. 5 STARS.

I’ve been with Starling over two years and find it very user friendly. Reviewed on: 18th January 2022

Amazing

I love using the Starling app, it's so easy to use and I love the spaces. It helps me to save up for different things without me either noticing the money going anywhere or me touching the money. Managing my money for my business is so easy and I'm really happy that I don't have to pay to have to do that - I think it's a bit bananas that most places charge to have a business account, so I'm very grateful that Starling doesn't. Not only that, but it's a great account to have! Reviewed on: 18th January 2022

So quickly & easy to open
