Clear,easy and responsive

So far so good. I love the ap and ease of use.As an older and less tech savy person I have had no issues at all.It is easy to see your spending and I love the ability to label all spending into categories for ease of budgeting. Any questions that I have had have been answered promptly and politley. Reviewed on: 18th January 2022

Easy to use and understand

It's the easiest mobile banking app to use and very robust Reviewed on: 18th January 2022

Expertly crafted to fit modern needs

I absolutely love the app - from seamless sync with Google Pay to giving me a detailed breakdown of my daily and monthly spending (even letting me add notes!), it has almost everything I could ask for! The creating of account was also a very convenient process. Also, I really like that for big transactions, the app always asks me to put in my bank password. And often for first-time transactions on a platform (of amounts like £30 or more), I get asked by the app to approve it. Because of this, I find the security to be very reliable. Another good feature is to lock the card from within the app, in case anything happens. Reviewed on: 18th January 2022

BEST UK BANK

I switched from First Direct to Starling because I found First Direct were slow to adapt their product to reflect what competitors are offering. Their security steps had also become too complicated. I have not been disappointed with the switch. Starling is much easier to use and navigate And n the year since I have switched, they have continued to innovate. My favourite new feature is Bills management which makes it so much easier to make sure you have money aside to pay your monthly bills. Reviewed on: 18th January 2022

Can't be beaten

My experience with Starling has been flawless from beginning to end - the app has never caused me any issues and it's such an upgrade on any other bank I've used previously - looking forward to the future! Reviewed on: 18th January 2022
