Starling is the best thing that happened to the banking sector!

I have been using Starling Bank for 4 months now. I opened an account with them when I first entered the UK and physical banks were frustrating me to open an account as an International student. But I checked online banks and was happy with the description of services of Starling and decided to give it a try. Now, I am happy I did. I can easily call their customer care line which functions 24/7 and they give me a speedy response to my queries and resolve issues almost immediately. I also usually get a monthly interest for keeping my money with Starling. Finally, they have lots of spaces where one can save money and allocate finance to different stuff. I am happy with the banking system of Starling Bank and I can give my unreserved recommendation anytime, anyday! Reviewed on: 17th February 2022

My account was so easy to set up. Any questions I have are answered through their easy to navigate app. I get notified as soon as any transaction takes place. Their "spaces" are extremely useful. I even get interest on my current account - yay! Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

The best bank ever!!

A bank that helps you monitor your spending whilst encouraging you to save and fix set payments. Great with reminding you to be protected from fraud and always gives an update even when small changes are made. Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

Starling does everything a bank should do ie look after my money securely and make it easy to use it as I see fit. Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

I can't stress enough how awesome they are

Having dealt with digital products from traditional high street banks for years, I was always left dissatisfied with how limited they were. Having switched to Starling I now feel free! I can do all my banking via the app on my phone. No need to carry an annoying card reader, or log in to a desktop site, or set for inside a bricks-and-mortar building in order to manage my finances. And the app just keeps getting better as time goes on, adding features that I didn't even know I wanted but have now come to rely on. Consider me an ambassador for Starling.
