Top marks!

At every twist and turn, from fraudulent entries to first class service Starlingvare head and shoulders above any previous bank. Ten out of ten! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2026

It was very promising, but only until Anne was CEO.

It was very promising, but only until Anne was CEO. Now it's not a bank, it's more like a desperate housewives club. Nor crypto friendly. And new User Interface is disaster Reviewed on: 19th January 2026

A great bank to do business with

A great bank to do business with easy access to all accounts, easy to transfer between accounts and create saving places and goals I often use the spaces to create goals saving for holidays or specific days away. With the current account switch it’s easy to transfer your account to hear, everything online and easy to use and apply for Reviewed on: 16th June 2025

Great online bank

I highly recommend this bank,, their customer service is second to none. The online banking is so easy to use, and the interest comes in very useful. Reviewed on: 13th June 2025

Good choice for easy management of accounts

Disappointed that the 'pots' no longer attract interest, but overall I find the app excellent and when I need help, the process is very efficient. Moved after disappointing experience with high st bank, and have been very pleased with the online approach. What seems like it could be tricky in the event of problems is actually much better organised than other providers. I find the ability to pay bills from a separate pot very useful.

Highly flexible account with useful features

Love the account app, ability to create virtual cards and no additional fees for using the card abroad. The automated spend category reporting lets me see where my money is going easily. Reviewed on: 13th June 2025

Supportive Starling!

Had a few scam transactions that were dealt with so well, swiftly, with excellent customer service from start to finish. Love the spaces features and simplicity of use of the app. Really useful breakdown features for tracking my spending on a monthly basis. Reviewed on: 13th June 2025

Just a good easy to use bank.
