Cutting edge banking

After 30 years with firstdirect, I moved to Starling and never looked back. Brilliant app that does everything you need. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Best bank in my opinion

User friendly, contact staff very helpful and understanding. They just do things (that help) which other banks don’t. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Sterling performance!

I hadn't appreciated how efficient a non-highstreet bank could be until I openend my Starling Current Account. To which I have to add a compliment to its unique style of communication and friendliness. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

New To App Banking

Always shied away from mobile phone banking, for security reasons mainly. But very happy with the Starling app. Can set my contact card withdrawal limit, lock the account whenever I want and have plenty of security protection all round. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Excellent experience throughout

First of all coming from a traditional bank with branches shows me how much of the companies time and resources must be devoted to these instead of on the way we actually do business with banks i.e through there app. The Starling app is really nice and simple with some decent features. Therw are always things to improve one of these areas is in the way we can analyse our finances there are limited tools to help get an insight into expenses (especially historic expense). I would also love to see more functionality from the marketplace as its very sparse at the moment. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Simple and convenient

Very wasy to use app. We have 3 accounts, current, joint and business. Great to have them all in one place. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Brings Banking into the 21st Century!

I have had absolutely nothing but positive experiences with Starling. The app is fantastic, account set up extremely easy, and the notifications are brilliant. The IT company who designed the app should be given a medal, it just works exactly as it's supposed to all the time and is super easy to navigate. Customer service is also fantastic. Can't recomend them enough!! Reviewed on: 24th March 2022
