I moved after 20yrs w NatWest - it was scary for a few hrs. But I never looked back. Starling made it so easy, it’s a seamless app. Spaces & bills manager are fantastic features. The customer service is impeccable - quick & once again efficient. I praise starling whenever I can. Bonus - it’s founded and led by a woman. Reviewed on: 21st March 2022

The easiest banking experience ever!

Accounts can be set up via app quickly and without filling in a million forms. The accounts do exactly what they say they will, there are no hidden fees, no cold calls. paying cheques in is as easy as taking a photograph. There is even a button for 'last 3 months bank statements'. Honestly can't fault starling. Reviewed on: 21st March 2022
