Great, friendly, easy to use

Awesome! I use for both business and personal banking. Customer service is the best I've ever known in a bank. Reviewed on: 7th March 2022

Banking made simple and clear

Transferred to Starling at beginning of year, and been so impressed, from the quick and simple transfer, to the app being so clear to use, and the little touches just helping me sort my money out. Reviewed on: 7th March 2022

Money made easy

I've found it so easy to keep track of my finances since I switched to Starling Bank, especially using their spaces feature to keep savings, bills and rent separate from my spending money so I know how much I have left each month Reviewed on: 7th March 2022

Great App!

I’m new to Starling and the app is amazing! Very easy to setup and use. I love how you can edit the payee name to what ever you want. Also i like the fact when you pay someone the previous payment history stays. I love how you can pay Direct Debits from a saving space. Never thought i’d say this but its a banking app thats fun to use. Reviewed on: 6th March 2022

Changed the way we budget

I can't fault Starling. The app is easy to navigate, the frequent payment notifications are useful and we use the 'spaces' to separate out regular payments - making budgeting much easier. Reviewed on: 5th March 2022

Planet- and User-Friendly

What a fab bank. I was drawn to them because of their ethics and the fact that they don’t fund evil, fossil fuel corporations. But they also offer a fantastic switch service, have affable and homely communications and support, and use clean GUIs and innovative ideas in their app (Spaces for saving and allocating funds, etc. Again, they are especially marvellous because of their green, climate-friendly ethical approach to banking.

Best and easiest bank possible

Being a student it was so fast and easy for me to open my account. Afterwards the service they provide with 7/24 texts helps me to sort all of my problems. Deposit money is very fast and easy. Also for my parents to send me money from abroad is very good and since there are no extra commission rate it is very affordable. I recommend Starling everyone but especially students!
