Excellent budgeting features and intuitive app interface which helps make people's finances easy to understand at a glance and empowers them to take control of their spending habits. Additionally, the lack of advertising is refreshing. Reviewed on: 30th March 2026

I've now been with Starling bank for about 5 years,There's several features I like, instant spending notifications being one of them. A saving account that pays a generous 4%, and when I had a problem a very patient agent helped me with my query. Reviewed on: 27th March 2026

Use for everyday needs. Love the pie visual to see where my money is being spent. Easy to use! Great for the simple banking. Even have saving pockets where I round up and can find random bits of money! Always a nice surprise . Doesn’t take much space in my phone either Reviewed on: 26th March 2026

Opened for associated child account.

Opened for associated child account and has been ok. Easy to use and set up but a tad confusing to move money around in the app. Easy to transfer into and out of Starling so great for that. Had 1 problem and needed Customer Service who were very quick and very good. Reviewed on: 25th March 2026

Dual currency account, what a great idea.

I have an account with Starling which gives me a euro account running alongside it. What an innovation, no need to worry about changing currency for a holiday, just transfer working the account and away you go. Fantastic. Reviewed on: 25th March 2026
