Starling haven't put a foot wrong since I ditched all my high street bank accounts abs mixed to them. They are original comd up with fresh ideas to help manage my money and know how to do customer service really well. I have shown several of my friends the benefits of this bank and I'm glad to say several have taken me up on joining. I feel that I can do my banking on my terms and in line with how I want to use my money. New ideas regularly appear so that I can save and pay bills in a more simplified way. Starling puts the high street banks in their place. So pleased I moved away from what was the norm. Starling are there to help me everyday.Thankyku. Reviewed on: 18th February 2022

The app is great, simple to use and great at managing spaces, making payments is a breeze and controlling spending is easy with its analytics. One of the best out there. Reviewed on: 18th February 2022

Useful

I like that I can see how much I spend rather than how much I have. It’s helping me budget better. Reviewed on: 18th February 2022

Love them

Left HBOS, RBS and FirstDirect and transferred everything to Starting. I’d never go back to those old fashioned banks again. Starlings app, functionality and features are far superior. Reviewed on: 18th February 2022

Happy I tried something new

I was fed up with my big name bank that I’ve been with since childhood. I did some research and was impressed with the credentials for Starling. I’m an eco conscious consumer and wanted my bank choice to reflect that and also be a modern bank that I can trust. They were easy to set up with, great banking app with lots of updates which reassures me they’re always trying to improve. I don’t see that in my old bank, they’re like a dinosaur compared to starling. Reviewed on: 17th February 2022
