Banking Made Easy

Starling has made banking, paying bill’s and transferring money less of a chore. It’s easy to use app with useful additional features which just make life easier. I wish I joined up sooner. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Starling: Like a bird on the wing

I was accepted as a customer as a pensioner easily and with no hurdles or anxiety - this in itself gave me confidence in the care and consideration for any kind of customer. The app is easy peasy to use, read and navigate. I am able to get on with life with no crazy 1,000 steps to manage money but still know it’s secure. This is human banking.

Awesome Bank!

I love Starling bank, have been with them since feb 2020 and never had any issues. I would definitely recommend them. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Simple, managing money made easy

I LOVE this bank. I’ve recommended to friends, made my husband switch, made family switch too. For starters it’s all online which is fabulous for an introvert like me. The app is so simple to use, you can easily monitor what you’re spending and where and it tots up your monthly spend in a handy dashboard. On top of that my life has quite literally changed by using spaces, I have a bills space where all my bills are paid from, on payday I have an automatic transfer go over and I know I’m covered. I use a bills space for my food shop money, where I automatically transfer money over on payday and can drop it back into my balance throughout the month. I have a little rainy day space where I can stash some pennies for myself and finally a space where I have set it to roundup each card transaction I make, rounding up to the nearest pound and it collects up my spare change, in 2 months I had saved over a hundred quid! I cannot recommend this bank enough for anyone and everyone it’s so easy and simple to use and makes managing your money automated Reviewed on: 24th March 2022
